AppCheck

Pub

A Flutter plugin that allows you to check if an app is installed/enabled, launch an app and get the list of installed apps.

Installation

First, add appcheck as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Methods available

  • checkAvailability(String uri)
  • isAppInstalled(String uri)
  • getInstalledApps() (only for Android)
  • isAppEnabled(String uri) (only for Android)
  • launchApp(String uri)

Permissions

Before using the plugin, you need to add declarations in your configuration files.

Android

If you want to use the getInstalledApps() function, you need the QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES" />

If you only want to check certain apps and you know the packageName, add them via queries in AndroidManifest.xml.

<queries>
   <package android:name="com.google.android.apps.maps"/>
</queries>

iOS

Make sure your Info.plist file includes the necessary URL schemes under LSApplicationQueriesSchemes to check and launch other apps:

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
    <string>scheme1</string>
    <string>scheme2</string>
    <!-- Add more schemes as needed -->
</array>

Example:

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
    <string>fb</string>
    <string>twitter</string>
    <string>instagram</string>
    <string>whatsapp</string>
    <string>youtube</string>
    <string>comgooglemaps</string>
    <string>http</string>
    <string>https</string>
    <string>mailto</string>
    <!-- Add more schemes as needed -->
</array>

Check out Example.

Changelog

1.8.1

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed deprecation warning for UIApplication.canOpenURL(_:), deprecated in the iOS 27 SDK. The call is now isolated to a dedicated, explicitly-deprecated helper, and launchApp opens URLs directly and handles failure via the completion handler instead of pre-flighting with canOpenURL(_:). (#24)

1.8.0

Breaking Changes

  • Minimum Flutter version is now 3.44.0.
  • Minimum Dart SDK version is now 3.12.0.
  • Minimum iOS deployment target bumped from 9.0 to 12.0.

Maintenance

  • Migrated Android plugin to Flutter's built-in Kotlin (AGP 9 / KGP 2.0+). Removed explicit kotlin-android plugin, kotlin-stdlib dependency, and kotlinOptions block; replaced with the kotlin { compilerOptions {} } DSL.
  • Updated iOS podspec version to match pubspec and bumped Swift version to 5.9.

1.7.0

Performance

  • Fixed UI blocking: getInstalledApps() no longer freezes the UI. Method channel handlers now run on a background thread using Flutter's makeBackgroundTaskQueue().

New Features

  • Added includeIcon parameter to getInstalledApps() - set to false for significantly faster performance when icons aren't needed.
  • Added includeSystemApps parameter to getInstalledApps() - set to false to only retrieve user-installed apps.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed versionCode type mismatch that could cause issues on Android API 28+.

Breaking Changes

  • Minimum Dart SDK version is now 3.0.0
  • Minimum Flutter version is now 3.10.0

1.6.0

  • Updated Android dependencies
  • Increased Android minSdk version to 24

1.5.4

  • Support for Swift Package Manager on iOS.
  • Misc. updates to example app.

1.5.3

  • Added null check for appInfo.

1.5.2

  • You need to now make an instance of the class to use the methods, instead of using static methods. Checkout the example in the README for more info.

1.3.0 - 1.5.0

  • Minor code cleanup and dependency updates.
  • Fixes for iOS app launches and README instructions.

1.0.6

  • Lowered dart sdk constraint to >=2.12.0 from 2.17.0

1.0.5

  • Remove QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission due to playstore policies (check README for more info)

1.0.4

  • Fixed some lint warnings
  • Updated Dart SDK min version to 2.17

1.0.3
