Dynamically check whether a particular app is installed or not in android

I want to know whether the user have installed the apps from the links i provided in my application..

The problem is the package name, first I have to install the app to get to know the app package name, and then write the code which compares with the package name i provided.

I cant do this process for each and every new app promotion.

Is there a way to know the package name of the android apps without even installing it?

If your user installs the app from Google play store then your links should look something like this

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.app

or in case of play store app prompt like this

market://details?id=com.example.app

the last part (id) should actually be the package name

You can check the App on the Play Store.

The package name is in the URL... For example:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dae.dfnews

The important part is id=dae.dfnews. dae.dfnews is the package name.
