1. Ritu Agrawal 2014-02-27 This question is more suited for the Q&A forum. I would suggest you to post your question there. Here is the Q&A link http://developer.appcelerator.com/questions/most-recent I found a similar topic of discussion there that might answer your question: https://developer.appcelerator.com/question/122245/can-i-call-anohter-appliction-or-app-in-titanium-app
2. Marian Bresol 2014-02-28 I was checking your recomendations but my problem it is different. Because I don't need open a app like what'sApp, I need open a app made for me. But I don't know how call my app into other app titanium. In one recomedation is writing that I can do this {noformat}Ti.Platform.openURL('whatsapp://');{noformat} but the event does not nothing.
3. Ritu Agrawal 2014-03-03 Here are a couple of resources that would help you to get started on this topic: http://fokkezb.nl/2013/08/26/url-schemes-for-ios-and-android-1/ https://speakerdeck.com/jasonkneen/titanium-and-url-schemes Let us know if you have any follow up question.
4. Marian Bresol 2014-03-07 I RESOLVED the problem. The solution was: It is a event in a button like this:

      buttonOpenApp.addEventListener('click', function() {
      		if (isAndroid) {
      
      			var intent = Ti.Android.createIntent({
      				packageName : ("com.package.MyApp"),//This is the complete package the app.
      				className : ("com.package.MyApp.MyAppActivity")//This is the name the activity, you need put the complete package.
      			});
      			var activity = Ti.Android.currentActivity.startActivity(intent);
      		} 
      	});
      

   I needed change the AndroidManifest in other directory for that the app see the changes the file. My AndroidManifest is equal that this:

    
      <manifest android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1" package="com.package.MyApp" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
      	<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" android:targetSdkVersion="11"/>
      	<!-- TI_MANIFEST -->
      	<application android:debuggable="false" android:hardwareAccelerated="true" android:icon="@drawable/appicon" android:label="MyApp" android:name="MyAppApplication" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
      		<!-- TI_APPLICATION -->
      		<activity android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize" android:label="MyApp" android:name=".MyAppActivity" android:theme="@style/Theme.Titanium">
      			<intent-filter>
      				<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
      				<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
      			</intent-filter>
      		</activity>
      </application>
      </manifest> 
      

   I hope this can help you.
