Intents
Each activity is started or activated with an Intent
, which is a message object that makes a request to the Android runtime to start an activity or other app component in your app or in some other app.
Intent types

Explicit intent: You use explicit intents to start components in your own app (for example, to move between screens in the UI).
Implicit intent: You do not specify a specific activity or other component to receive the intent. Instead, you declare a general action to perform, and the Android system matches your request to an activity or other component that can handle the requested action.
