How to open VK application with a specific friend?

Question

Background

To open the Facebook application with your Facebook friend, you can use this intention:

final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(String.format("fb://profile/%s", friendId)));

A similar solution found for LinkedIn:

final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(String.format("linkedin://profile/%s",  friendId)));

I think the following will work for Google Plus (have not tested it, but it seems promising):

final Intent intent =new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(String.format("https://plus.google.com/%s/posts", friendId)));

Question

I tried to find how to open the VKontakte (VK) social network application using such intentions, but could not find it.

Is there such an intention? If so, what is it?

Answer 1

Further the answer from the developer:

Yes, it was done the same way:

final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(String.format("vkontakte://profile/%d", friendId)));

If you need to open a community, use the same URL, but add a minus sign in the community identifier.
