android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: passing url to the intent

Question

I have the following error in my app:

Fatal Exception: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=http://m.fretebras.com.br/fretes }

Code with error:

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://m.fretebras.com.br/fretes"));
startActivity(i);

The error occurs in versions 6.0.1 android, I have no idea why it's happening, I believe that by passing the url to Intent is all right. Can someone help me?

Seems like no browser installed on your phone. Please verify and to avoid crash use below code.

try {
        Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://m.fretebras.com.br/fretes"));
        startActivity(i);
    } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Note - This code will just ignore your crash, if no browser found.
