How can i get which application launch by user programatically?

Question

Is there any way to get user launching app information like package name or any information about that application.

i make one service which get all running process and then i just compare with my deserving package name but i want Broadcast intent.

Is there any broadcast intent receiver which revive user launching app info ?

Take a look [ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED](http://developer.android.com/intl/es/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED). May be helpful to you — M D, Mar 11 '16 at 10:09

This code works for me, Hope it help you too.

IntentFilter addFilter = new IntentFilter();
addFilter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED);
addFilter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_INSTALL);
addFilter.addDataScheme("package");
registerReceiver(yourReceiverName, addFilter);
