Hitman

What is the best way to start one android app from another app?

Try this :

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ActionMain);
intent.SetComponent(new ComponentName("com.package.address","com.package.address.MainActivity"));
StartActivity(intent);

You can also make you use of something like this :

Intent intent = PackageManager.GetLaunchIntentForPackage("com.package.address");
StartActivity(intent);

This will surely help you
