body: <p>I have created an app with 3 tabs. The app works fine but I want the 2nd tab to be selected and loaded when the app opens. How can I set that?</p>
  
  <p>Here is my code :</p>
  
  <pre><code>public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
          setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
  
          TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();
  
  
  
          // Tab for Home
          TabSpec homespec = tabHost.newTabSpec("Home");
          // setting Title and Icon for the Tab
          homespec.setIndicator("Home",getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icons_home_tab));
          Intent photosIntent = new Intent(this, HomeActivity.class);
          homespec.setContent(photosIntent);
  
          // Tab for Child
          TabSpec childspec = tabHost.newTabSpec("Child");
          childspec.setIndicator("Child",getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icons_child_tab));
          Intent homeIntent = new Intent(this, ChildActivity.class);
          childspec.setContent(homeIntent);

          Intent accIntent = new Intent(this, AccountActivity.class);
          accspec.setContent(accIntent);
  
          // Adding all TabSpec to TabHost
          tabHost.addTab(homespec); // Adding home tab
          tabHost.addTab(childspec); // Adding child tab
          tabHost.addTab(accspec); //Adding account tab
          }
  </code></pre>
