Explanation: We are creating a layout with 2 Textviews and 2 EditText where we will accept input from the user. Then we have taken a button on which we will give a click event

 

Step 4: In MainActivity.java file write the following code:

 

package com.codeally.emailexample;

import android.content.Intent;

import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.view.Menu;

import android.view.MenuItem;

import android.view.View;

import android.widget.Button;

import android.widget.EditText;

import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {

    Button b;

    EditText e1,e2;

    @Override    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        b=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button);

        e1=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);

        e2=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText2);

        b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override            public void onClick(View v) {

                Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);

                i.setType("message/html");

                i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"sumaiyabpatel@gmail.com"});

                i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Feedback from App");

                i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Name : "+e1.getText()+"\nMessage : "+e2.getText());

                try {

                    startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Send feedback..."));

                } catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {

                    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "There are no email clients installed.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                }

            }

        });

    }

    @Override    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {

        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.       // getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);        return false;

    }

    @Override    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {

        int id = item.getItemId();

        //noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement        if (id == R.id.action_settings) {

            return true;

        }

        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);

    }

}
