how can I fire the default app for file browsing on Android >= API level 7? There is no app like this that comes with Android, so is there an Intent like android.intent.action.fileexplore? How can I find out whether an application is installed that can display the contents of a folder? And how can I "talk" to it?
Thanks a lot!
Be well

There is no such concept in Android.

No.

You can try an ACTION_PICK Intent with a Uri pointing to the folder in question, but my guess is that 99.9% of Android devices will not have anything to respond to this Intent.
