Intent Intercept for Android
This app attempts to intercept as many Intents as possible in order to examine their contents.
This helps when trying to develop an app that reacts to a particular intent.
PLEASE NOTE: The app can only intercept intents that are sent system-wide - usually those where Android will offer you a choice of which app to open an Intent with. It can not intercept any that are sent to a specific app.
Some details of the intent can be edited before resending it.

The app is open source at https://github.com/intrications/intent-intercept
The interceptions can be enabled and disabled from the Intent Intercept icon in the launcher.
The only downside I see is that it clutters up my app drawer with its launcher icon, which I will rarely if ever use. Maybe I'll fork the repo and add a "disable launcher icon" feature. Good work overall, though!
I was going nuts trying to receive an intent from the new version of Google Drive until this showed me clearly what it's doing.
Intercepts all streams including content provider URI - only app in store with this capability.
Thank you so much, I'm learning app development and this is incredibly helpful
Great tool for development and testing.
Awesome.
Great
The ONLY thing it doesn't work with is non-local video streams
default actions. eg default browser default editor.
Can be used to Get file path and view muzei artwork URL
The only thing one can do is enable or disable the app. Could you please give a small example on how to get the different parameters for apps?
… but changelog isn't human-readable, so I've no idea what the updates are about!
Great app to see what google is up too with my data
Immensely helpful. Thanks a lot.

Doesn't work and always crashes
Fantastic! This is that intent app you were looking for. With sauce!
great app and very useful for debugging intents.
A developers best friend. Intentsly handy! (Pun intented)
Enabled me to send bug report with associated intent to search app developer doing 'open containing folder' wrong. Also sent same dev another search app's intent when 'open containing folder' works correctly.
default actions. eg default browser default editor.
No log of intents. Doesn't catch custom intents from Xposed modules.
I was about to create a similar tool but then I found this! Saved me a lot of time. Thank you! Edit: I credited you in my app's screenshots :)
It doesn't catch the NFC intents.
App doesn't seem to do anything.
A must have app for any developper
What kind of intent it can intercept?
As I've been looking to make my phone smarter through dabbling in Tasker and app development, using this app has been beer enlightening.
Play video is missing
Great contribution to the developer community. Thanks.
No menu buttons on the screen as in the PlayStore screen prints. No instructions or help. Worthless!!! So many other users with a similar opinion.
Very very good, Great for developers.
Extremely useful.
Useless
Thanks for saving me so much time

Would be better with an intercepted intent history. Add that and this deserves 5 stars.
Does exactly what it says. Didn't help me but that was an issue with what I was trying to do, not the program itself. Really, really slick.
