I am developing an Android APP based on Accessibility feature. As it can't programmatically Enable/Disable Accessibility Service in Android(See How to Programmatically Enable/Disable Accessibility Service in Android) , So I guide the user to Accessibility Settings Page(Pic 1) via the code below:

public static boolean gotoAccessibilitySettings(Context context) {
    Intent settingsIntent = new Intent(
            Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS);
    if (!(context instanceof Activity)) {
        settingsIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
    }
    boolean isOk = true;
    try {
        context.startActivity(settingsIntent);
    } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
        isOk = false;
    }
    return isOk;
}

And then the user need to find out the Sub Settings Label of my APP, click it, and now the Accessibility Settings Page of my APP show(Pic 2).

I doubt that if any way start my APP's Accessibility Settings Page(Pic 2) directly?

You can manually open the accessibility settings with the following Intent (when android.content.Intent and android.app.Intent have both been imported):

Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS);
startActivity(intent);

    Thanks for your answer, ＠timgws. But my problem is open the accessibility settings of my own app directly, not the home page of accessibility settings :( – Kalok Lo Apr 21 '15 at 04:05
  • Ended up doing this. Until I figure out a better way to get to the page, I just tell the user to click on my app and enable the service from settings. – Thor Lancaster Mar 21 '20 at 05:45

Try this:

Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_SETTINGS);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);

Maybe the code below can help you :

Intent intent = new Intent();
        intent.setClassName("com.android.settings",
                "com.android.settings.Settings");
        intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
        intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
                | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK
                | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_EXCLUDE_FROM_RECENTS);
        intent.putExtra(PreferenceActivity.EXTRA_SHOW_FRAGMENT,
                "the fragment which you want show");
        intent.putExtra(PreferenceActivity.EXTRA_SHOW_FRAGMENT_ARGUMENTS,
                extras);
       startActivity(intent);

Or you can search the Key Word "Fragment Injection" for more information; Check out this link,it is useful for you case:

    According to that link, this method no longer works as the vulnerability has been patched in Android 4.4 Kitkat – BamsBamx Sep 28 '16 at 23:18
