Just get the package name and use package manager to get all the apps instead and check one by one with the package name you have. You can get package name from the google play link of the app you need.

Try this 

private boolean isAppInstalled(String packageName) {
        PackageManager packageManager = getPackageManager();
        boolean installed = false;
        try {
            packageManager.getPackageInfo(packageName, PackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES);
            installed = true;
        } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
            installed = false;
        }
        return installed;
    }
