How to check if a given app is installed on internal or external storage

Question

I am trying to get the location of app by passing package name to check if its installed on internal or external storage. Please help.

Answer 1

U can check this code and see whether we have installed on internal or external storage

(Note: u can use it in oncreate or any where)

ApplicationInfo io = getApplicationContext().getApplicationInfo();

if(io.sourceDir.startsWith("/data/")) {
Toast.makeText(this,"your app is in internal storage",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

//application is installed in internal memory
} else if(io.sourceDir.startsWith("/mnt/") || io.sourceDir.startsWith("/sdcard/")) {
Toast.makeText(this,"your app is in external storage",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
//application is installed in sdcard(external memory)
}
