Welcome to our latest tutorial on how to open Facebook profiles, pages, and groups directly from your Android app! In this video, we'll walk you through step-by-step instructions on how to seamlessly navigate and interact with your favorite Facebook content using your mobile device.

how the code works:

Serial Number Description
1 fb_Uid

The variable `fb_Uid` stores the Facebook user ID.

2 try-catch block

Inside a try-catch block, the code creates an Intent to open the Facebook app using the Intent.ACTION_VIEW action and a URI with the Facebook profile URL.

3 startActivity()

The `startActivity()` method is called with the created intent to open the Facebook app.

4

If an exception occurs (e.g., the Facebook app is not installed), the catch block is executed.

5

Inside the catch block, another Intent is created to open the Facebook profile URL in a web browser.

6 Intent.ACTION_VIEW

The `Intent.ACTION_VIEW` action and the Facebook profile URL are used to create the intent.

7 startActivity()

The startActivity() method is called again with the new intent to open the browser and navigate to the Facebook profile.
