Hi.
Has anyone here successfully integrated an Android app into a rich display file running on the mobile client? Let me explain what I'm trying to do. I'd like a button on my screen to start the Android calculator app. I've done some Googling and it seems possible using Android Intents, but I haven't had any luck yet getting it to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Android app
Honestly, I've never tried to launch another app, so I'm not sure if there's a way in our existing Profound UI mobile client. Maybe someone else knows?
I did do a quick Google search and found that the following plugin. I haven't tried it, but it looks promising:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-p ... p-launcher
You'd have to build your own app rather than use our prebuilt one. But, if you don't mind working with Cordova, you could build your own app and include that plugin, then (assuming it works as advertised) you'd be able to open other apps that way.
