The following code can be used to send some text to the default messaging app.



private EditText userText;

private EditText userPhone;



private void sendSMS(String phoneNo, String message) {

String inputText = userText.getText().toString();

String inputNumber = userPhone.getText().toString();



Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);

sendIntent.putExtra("sms_body", inputText);

sendIntent.putExtra("address", inputNumber);

sendIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");



startActivity(sendIntent);

}



The following code can be used when you want to send the text to someone without using the default messaging app:



private EditText userText;

private EditText userPhone;



private void sendSMS(String phoneNo, String message) {

String inputText = userText.getText().toString();

String inputNumber = userPhone.getText().toString();



SmsManager sms = SmsManager.getDefault();

sms.sendTextMessage(inputNumber, null, inputText, null, null);

Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Message has been sent.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

}



The second method requires you to add permissions to send text messages.
