问题:

Is it possible to get the source of install from an Android app?

I mean, I want to see, if the app is installed from the Play Store, Amazon Appstore or via executing an APK.

PS: I think to see it while my app crashes and I was able to send an bug report, that my app was installed via Play Store. How do I get this value?

回答1:

The PackageManager class supplies the getInstallerPackageName method that will tell you the package name of whatever installed the package you specify. Side-loaded apps will not contain a value.

The latest version of the Amazon store finally sets PackageManager.getInstallerPackageName() to "com.amazon.venezia" as well to contrast with Google Play's "com.android.vending".

回答2:

Use getInstallerPackageName.

This stores the packageName of what installed the application.

  • Google Play: "com.android.vending"
  • Amazon Appstore: "com.amazon.venezia"
