I am using the following piece of code at the moment:
List<PackageInfo> packs = getPackageManager().getInstalledPackages(0);
but it returns Apps that have been installed by the both device manufacturer and me. How to limit it so that only the apps that I installed are returned?
// Flags: See below
int flags = PackageManager.GET_META_DATA |
PackageManager.GET_SHARED_LIBRARY_FILES |
PackageManager.GET_UNINSTALLED_PACKAGES;
PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();
List<ApplicationInfo> applications = pm.getInstalledApplications(flags);
for (ApplicationInfo appInfo : applications) {
if ((appInfo.flags & ApplicationInfo.FLAG_SYSTEM) == 1) {
// System application
} else {
// Installed by user
}
}
Flags:
