Android, Get Installed App Size and Date

In Android, How I can get app installed date and how I can get installed app size.

I am using below code to get app size but it is not correct

List packs = getPackageManager().getInstalledPackages(0);

for(i=0;i<packs.size();i++) {
    PackageInfo p = packs.get(i);
    ApplicationInfo appInfo =p.applicationInfo;
    long fileSize = new FileInputStream(appInfo.sourceDir).getChannel().size();
}

Please help me.. Thanks,

For the size of a package you may try the standard "Java way", thus:

ApplicationInfo appInfo = ...;

try{
    File file = new File(appInfo.sourceDir);
    double size = file.length();  // size in Byte
    Log.d(TAG, "Size: " + size + " Byte\n");
} catch( Exception e ) {
    //e.printStackTrace();
}

Not sure it gives you a precise estimation of the size, though.

Ajay,

To get the installation date you will want to use the PackageManager class. More specifically the getPackageInfo() method. This will return to you a PackageInfo object which contains firstInstallTime value.

There does not currently exist a public API to get an application's size as PackageManager.getpackageSizeInfo() was removed from the API from SDK 0.9 to SDK 1.0. See HERE

Good luck!
