Enterprise Support

The PackageManager extension gives access to certain features of the Android package manager.

The simple API will have you up and running with notifications in just a few lines of code. Identical code base can be used across all platforms without any platfrom specific code, allowing you to develop once and deploy everywhere!

A complete getting started guide will help you through the integration and we have detailed AS docs available, and a complete example application.

Features

  • Receive package added and removed events when other applications are installed or removed from the device;
  • Get Installed Application package information;
  • Single API interface - your code works across supported platforms with no modifications;
  • Sample project code and ASDocs reference;
