tsteward Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Nov 9, 2021 #1 In the code below the list apps does not contain all the apps installed. "com.ecartek.en.kd" definately exists but is not returned in the list. Am I doing something wrong? It does return 300 odd other apps Dim pm As PackageManager Dim apps As List apps.Initialize apps = pm.GetInstalledPackages If apps.IndexOf("com.ecartek.en.kd") > -1 Then lst1i.Add("Launch KeyDIY App") End If

tsteward Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Nov 9, 2021 #5 Okay so dropping it to 28 solves the problem. But google wants apps to start supporting target 30 so its not really a solution. Upvote 0
