Hi,
I'm using getRunningTasks to get running apps. I noticed that this function is not working on Lollipop devices.
I also tried ActivityManager lib but got the same.
There are reports in the internet that getRunningTasks is now deprecated in Android L.
I could not figure out any alternative solution.
I'll appreciate any idea.

thanks,
David.

Wow, it is a significant part of my app.
Is there any known reason for deprecating this function?

Thanks for replying.
The proposed new usage stats service may be good approach for my needs.
