How to determine live wallpaper intent is valid programmatically?

I add a live wallpaper feature in our app, but got some exception in firebase. I tested on our ten android devices and got no exception, I wonder if I can determine live wallpaper is supported in a specific device programmatically (I don't want to filter devices in Google Play Console, as it kick out tow much devices)? thanks.

Exception: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.service.wallpaper.CHANGE_LIVE_WALLPAPER (has extras) }

Solution

  • may be you could check if an activity is available before starting the intent.

    if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
    startActivityForResult(intent);
}
