Description

To integrate the flutter_appavailability package into your app, you can follow these steps:

  1. Add the flutter_appavailability package to your project by adding the following line to your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
  flutter_appavailability: ^0.5.2+1

  1. Import the package in your Dart file where you want to use it:
import 'package:flutter_appavailability/flutter_appavailability.dart';

  1. Use the getInstalledApps() method to get a list of installed apps on the device:
List<Application> installedApps = [];

void getInstalledApps() async {
  List<Application> apps = await AppAvailability.getInstalledApps();
  setState(() {
    installedApps = apps;
  });
}

In this example, we're using the getInstalledApps() method from the flutter_appavailability package to get a list of all installed apps on the device. The getInstalledApps() method returns a List<Application> object containing information about each installed app, such as the app name, package name, and icon.

  1. Display the list of installed apps in your app's UI.
ListView.builder(
  itemCount: installedApps.length,
  itemBuilder: (context, index) {
    return ListTile(
      leading: CircleAvatar(
        backgroundImage: MemoryImage(installedApps[index].icon),
      ),
      title: Text(installedApps[index].appName),
      subtitle: Text(installedApps[index].packageName),
    );
  },
)

In this example, we're using a ListView.builder widget to display the list of installed apps in a scrollable list. Each app is displayed as a ListTile widget, with the app icon, name, and package name shown.

  1. Use the installed app list when reporting an issue.
    You can use the installed app list to provide additional information when reporting an issue in your app. For example, you could ask the user to select the app they were using when the issue occurred, and include this information in the bug report.
    Note that the getInstalledApps() method can take a long time to complete on devices with many installed apps, so you should consider using a loading indicator while the list is being fetched.
