1. Aim: To design an android application Send SMS using Intent.

2. Objective: The objective of an Android-based application that uses Intent to send SMS can be to
create a convenient and user-friendly tool for sending text messages. This type of app aims to
leverage the Android platform's capabilities to provide a seamless and efficient way for users to
compose and send SMS messages.

3. Input/Apparatus Used:

Input:

Computer: Android Studio is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux. Ensure that your
computer meets the minimum system requirements for the chosen operating system.

Internet Connection: A reliable internet connection is required to download Android Studio and the
necessary SDK components during the installation process.

Apparatus:

Android Studio Installer: Download the Android Studio installer from the official Android Studio
website (https://developer.android.com/studio). Choose the appropriate version for your
operating system.

Computer Mouse,Keyboard and Monitor/Display: Use a mouse and keyboard to interact with the
installation process, configure settings, and navigate through Android Studio. Android Studio
requires a monitor or display to visualize the installation process and subsequently to develop
and test Android applications.

Storage Space: Ensure sufficient free storage space on your computer to accommodate the Android
Studio installation and any additional SDK components you may download.

4. Procedure:
Step 1: First create a new Android Application. This will create an XML file “activity_main.xml” and a
Java File “MainActivity.Java”.

Step 2: Open the “activity_main.xml” file and add the following widgets in a Relative Layout:
• A Editext to the message to send.

• A EditText to enter the phone number

• A Submit to send sms to the entered phone number.

Also, Assign the ID to each of the components along with other attributes as shown in the given
image and the code below. The assigned ID on a component helps that component to be easily
found and used in the Java files.

Step 3: Now, after the UI, this step will create the Backend of Application. For this, open the
“MainActivity.java” file and instantiate the components made in the XML file (Edit Text and Submit
Button) using findViewById() method. This method binds the created object to the UI Components
with the help of the assigned ID.
