Hi, folks
This quick post is related to grab the app information installed on to your device.

Here is sample method  on button clicked..

 public void getInstalledPackage(View view)

{

Log.d("Clicked", " button Clicked");

             PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();

//get a list of installed apps.

        List<ApplicationInfo> packages = pm

                .getInstalledApplications(PackageManager.GET_META_DATA);

                // iterate over the list.

        for (ApplicationInfo packageInfo : packages) {

                           // print package name.

            Log.d("package name" , packageInfo.packageName);

        }

      }
