Android : How to get the List of Installed apps that use Internet Access - PackageManager

I wonder if it is possible, we get the list of Installed apps by :

    PackageManager pm = AppList.this.getPackageManager();
        Intent intent = new Intent( Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
        intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
    List   list = pm.queryIntentActivities(intent, PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED);


        for ( ResolveInfo rInfo : list)
    {
            results.add(rInfo.activityInfo.applicationInfo.loadLabel(pm));


        }

Can we sort or filter apps that use Internet Access to work?

This function will check an activity if it has the internet permission and if that permission is granted. You have to modify it accordingly for a service.

boolean checkIfUsesInet(ResloveInfo rInfo) {
  boolean result = false;
  try {
    PackageInfo packageInfo = getPackageManager().getPackageInfo(rInfo.activityInfo.packageName, PackageManager.GET_PERMISSIONS);
    for(int i=0; i < packageInfo.requestedPermissions.length; i++) {
      String permission = packageInfo.requestedPermission[i];
      int permissionFlag = packageInfo.requestedPermissionFlags[i];
      if(Manifest.permission.INTERNET.equals(permission) && (permissionFlag & PackageInfo.REQUESTED_PERMISSION_GRANTED) != 0)
        result = true;
    }
  } catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
  }
  return result;
}

You are welcome to retrieve the PackageInfo corresponding with an application, then examine its requestedPermissions array to see if the INTERNET permission is in there.
