For Android API 24 and above, you can use this:
val components = arrayOf(ComponentName(applicationContext, YourActivity::class.java))
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N)
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, null).putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EXCLUDE_COMPONENTS,components))
For the rest, you can have this solution I wrote about (which allows you to have a condition which to exclude
Here's a more generalized solution, to be able to choose which to exclude for all Android versions:
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
val targetIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND)
targetIntent.type = "text/plain"
targetIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject")
targetIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "text")
val excludedAppsPackageNames = hashSetOf( "com.pushbullet.android","com.android.bluetooth","com.google.android.apps.docs","com.google.android.gm")
getIntentChooser(this, targetIntent, "choose!", object : ComponentNameFilter {
override fun shouldBeFilteredOut(componentName: ComponentName): Boolean = excludedAppsPackageNames.contains(componentName.packageName)
})?.let { startActivity(it) }
}
interface ComponentNameFilter {
fun shouldBeFilteredOut(componentName: ComponentName): Boolean
}
private fun getIntentChooser(context: Context, intent: Intent, chooserTitle: CharSequence? = null, filter: ComponentNameFilter): Intent? {
val resolveInfos = context.packageManager.queryIntentActivities(intent, 0)
// Log.d("AppLog", "found apps to handle the intent:")
val excludedComponentNames = HashSet<ComponentName>()
resolveInfos.forEach {
val activityInfo = it.activityInfo
val componentName = ComponentName(activityInfo.packageName, activityInfo.name)
// Log.d("AppLog", "componentName:$componentName")
if (filter.shouldBeFilteredOut(componentName))
excludedComponentNames.add(componentName)
}
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
return Intent.createChooser(intent, chooserTitle).putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EXCLUDE_COMPONENTS, excludedComponentNames.toTypedArray())
}
if (resolveInfos.isNotEmpty()) {
val targetIntents: MutableList<Intent> = ArrayList()
for (resolveInfo in resolveInfos) {
val activityInfo = resolveInfo.activityInfo
if (excludedComponentNames.contains(ComponentName(activityInfo.packageName, activityInfo.name)))
continue
val targetIntent = Intent(intent)
targetIntent.setPackage(activityInfo.packageName)
targetIntent.component = ComponentName(activityInfo.packageName, activityInfo.name)
// wrap with LabeledIntent to show correct name and icon
val labeledIntent = LabeledIntent(targetIntent, activityInfo.packageName, resolveInfo.labelRes, resolveInfo.icon)
// add filtered intent to a list
targetIntents.add(labeledIntent)
}
val chooserIntent: Intent?
// deal with M list seperate problem
chooserIntent = if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
// create chooser with empty intent in M could fix the empty cells problem
Intent.createChooser(Intent(), chooserTitle)
} else {
// create chooser with one target intent below M
Intent.createChooser(targetIntents.removeAt(0), chooserTitle)
}
if (chooserIntent == null) {
return null
}
// add initial intents
chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, targetIntents.toTypedArray<Parcelable>())
return chooserIntent
}
return null
}
}
