iOS Question GetInstalledPackages

[Deleted member 103]

Hi,

how can I convert the B4a-code in B4i? Or is there a similar function in B4i?

Sub GetInstalledPackages As List
    Dim pm As PackageManager
    Return pm.GetInstalledPackages
End Sub

It appears that Apple won't allow that kind of enquiry, see this thread : http://iphonedevsdk.com/forum/iphone-sdk-development/37103-finding-out-what-apps-installed.html

Although it does give a solution, but Apple may still reject the app if it uses it.

That's bad!
How can I check whether an app is installed so that I can activate a function in another app?

You can't. You can't also start other apps unless they specifically registered for a custom scheme.
