@Wasim the email app, suppose gmail, it should open directly on button press — rawrstar, Jun 24 '22 at 12:07
You can't do that, that would be a huge security risk. You can write a text that tells users to check their email. — cloned, Jun 24 '22 at 12:30

in case u are using capacitor, u can use https://capacitorjs.com/docs/apis/app-launcher and launch the app by its package name like (com.google.android.gm) for android and maybe for ios... — Mostafa Harb, Jun 25 '22 at 08:14

this might help

you can also open new mail and give pre selected info

let email = {
      to: 'max@mustermann.de',
      cc: 'erika@mustermann.de',
      bcc: ['john@doe.com', 'jane@doe.com'],
      attachments: [
        'file://img/logo.png',
        'res://icon.png',
        'base64:icon.png//iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUg...',
        'file://README.pdf'
      ],
      subject: 'Cordova Icons',
      body: 'How are you? Nice greetings from Leipzig',
      isHtml: true
    }

with following you can open and attach the following with one press of a button

// Send a text message using default options
this.emailComposer.open(email);

thanks for the answer, however i just want to open email app and not the email compose box — rawrstar, Jun 26 '22 at 21:58

This package is used for sending out an email, while the author looks for a possibility to open the mail app. How to send an email is clearly not part of the question. – JSON Derulo Jun 28 '22 at 10:06
