How to Fetch List of Installed apps in iPhone using Swift?

is there any way by using code to get details like appsize,installed date,packaged name of all apps installed in our iPhone ?

CodePudding user response:

This would be a very severe security breach. There is no way of doing that without jailbreaking or hacking the iPhone.

Apple has a very strict policy about what can apps access and each has to be granted by the user explicitly. Something like this would not fly.

CodePudding user response:

No, apps are sandboxed and Apple-accepted APIs do not include anything that would let you do that.

You can, however, test whether a certain app is installed: • if the app is known to handle URLs of a certain type • by using [[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"thisapp://foo"]
