An intent is a messaging object that is used to request an action from other components of an application. It can also be used to launch an activity, send SMS, send an email, display a web page, etc.

It shows notification messages to the user from within an Android-enabled device. It alerts the user of a particular state that occurred. There are two types of intents in Android:

  • Implicit Intent- Used to invoke the system components.
  • Explicit Intent- Used to invoke the activity class.
