Open Play Store with PendingIntent and NotificationManagerCompat

Question

Anyone know how to open Play Store with Notification and PendingIntent?

I want to open Play Store with my app's page. Tried this one so far.

    Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
            Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + a.getPackageName()));
    i.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(a, 0, i, 0);

    NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(a, "update")
            .setContentTitle(getStr(a, R.string.notify_update_title))
            .setContentText(getStr(a, R.string.notify_update_body))
            .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_notif)
            .setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_DEFAULT)
            .setContentIntent(pendingIntent);

    NotificationManagerCompat managerCompat = NotificationManagerCompat.from(a);
    managerCompat.notify(UPDATE_NOTIF_ID, builder.build());

My bad. I was actually debugging on a very low-end smartphone API 16 that i have the Google Play compromised (uninstalled) because i need the Google Play Service up to date for Firebase.

The surprising thing is that when i tap the notification it doesn't throw ActivityNotFoundException indicating that Google Play can't be found.

So there is a little caveat tested in API 16.

Thanks to all that helped appreciate it.
