Try this way (may need to replace getActivity() with whatever is appropriate to the place you are calling (like MainActivity.this or something)): 

PackageManager pm = getActivity().getPackageManager(); Intent it = pm.getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.example.addsubtract"); getActivity().startActivity(it);
