installed_apps's Introduction

Installed Apps

The Installed Apps plugin for Flutter provides utility methods related to installed apps on a device.

Currently, only Android is supported.

Getting Started

Usage

Get List of Installed Apps

List<AppInfo> apps = await InstalledApps.getInstalledApps(
	bool excludeSystemApps,
	bool withIcon,
	String packageNamePrefix
);

Use packageNamePrefix to filter apps with package names starting with a specific prefix.

Get App Info with Package Name

AppInfo app = await InstalledApps.getAppInfo(String packageName);

AppInfo model class

class AppInfo {
  String name;
  Uint8List? icon;
  String packageName;
  String versionName;
  int versionCode;
  BuiltWith builtWith;
  int installedTimestamp;
}

Start App with Package Name

InstalledApps.startApp(String packageName);

Open App Settings Screen with Package Name

InstalledApps.openSettings(String packageName);

Check if App is a System App

bool isSystemApp = await InstalledApps.isSystemApp(String packageName);

Uninstall App

bool uninstallIsSuccessful = await InstalledApps.uninstallApp(String packageName);

Check if App is Installed

bool appIsInstalled = await InstalledApps.isAppInstalled(String packageName);

I'm always working on making improvements. If you have any feedback, issues, or suggestions, feel free to reach out. Happy coding!

installed_apps's Issues

Package Does not retrieve Persian or Arabic Names !

Cannot get installed app by prefix on Android 11

After updating to Android 11 on my device, InstalledApps.getInstalledApps(false, false, myPrefix) is empty for myPrefix. Before the update, it worked and yielded the correct app(s) with the given prefix. The update was the only change on the device, no apps have been removed or changed.

Android embedding

Why it is not developed for ios?

Why not for IOS

BinaryMessenger? but BinaryMessenger was expected

.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/installed_apps-1.3.0/android/src/main/kotlin/com/sharmadhiraj/installed_apps/InstalledAppsPlugin.kt: (39, 41): Type mismatch: inferred type is BinaryMessenger? but BinaryMessenger was expected

support for iOS

Hello,
any plans to add support for iOS?

Best regards,

installation guid link didnt work and rediret to pub.dev

look like the source i had wite an function to get apps but that gives me
Exception has occurred.
MissingPluginException (MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method getInstalledApps on channel installed_apps))
my code is this
class AppController extends GetxController {
List appInstalled = [];
@OverRide
void onInit() async {
super.onInit();
devloper.log('|ON IN IT HAD CALLED|');
appInstalled = await InstalledApps.getInstalledApps(true, true);
update();
}
}

Uint8List

I'm having trouble showing the icon(Uint8List) in the format they provide

use a deprecated version of the Android embedding.

To avoid unexpected runtime failures, or future build failures, try to see if these plugins support the Android V2 embedding. Otherwise, consider removing them since a future release of Flutter will remove these deprecated APIs.
If you are plugin author, take a look at the docs for migrating the plugin to the V2 embedding: https://flutter.dev/go/android-plugin-migration.

add InstalledApps.isExist(packageName) or InstalledApps.isInstalled(packageName) to now if app was found in the system

uninstallApp doesn't seem to work

Hi,

The uninstallApp function returns true directly on the confirmation dialog.
At that point, the app isn't uninstalled yet (the user hasn't even confirmed it yet).

Flow should probably be something like this:

Open the confirmation dialog.
If user cancels return false.
If user presses "OK". Wait for the app to be really uninstalled, then return true. Sometimes after pressing "OK" the uninstallation can be unsuccessful so there needs to be a check for this.

Regards,

Fatal Exception: android.content.pm.PackageManager$NameNotFoundException: vpn.video.downloader

Google Play Developer Reject because QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission Policy: Use of permission is not a permitted use case for QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission

I have a problem when using the installed_apps plugin in flutter which has the android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission for accurate location in our application. We prioritize privacy and security, using permissions to store accurate geotagging data, which is critical to our Quality Assurance KPIs.

Fatal Exception: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.graphics.drawable.VectorDrawable cannot be cast to android.graphics.drawable.BitmapDrawable

build.gradle file missing namespace

For projects using AGP > 8.2, all build.gradle files(including ones in plugins) are required to have a namespace. If a namespace is missing in any plugin, the following error is seen

Namespace not specified. Specify a namespace in the module's build file. See https://d.android.com/r/tools/upgrade-assistant/set-namespace for information about setting the namespace.

If you've specified the package attribute in the source AndroidManifest.xml, you can use the AGP Upgrade Assistant to migrate to the namespace value in the build file. Refer to https://d.android.com/r/tools/upgrade-assistant/agp-upgrade-assistant for general information about using the AGP Upgrade Assistant.

Uninstall App features

Can you add uninstall app features for this package?. I think it might be suitable solution for adding this feature https://www.semicolonworld.com/question/45412/install-uninstall-apks-programmatically-packagemanager-vs-intents
