How to get current AppInfo in UWP environment

问题

How can I get the current AppInfo of the running UWP application? I could not find any accessible constructor or static function to get this information.

Make sure that your device is updated to Windows10 Creators Update version.
Firstly, you should add Capability appDiagnostics to Package.appxmanifest. Directly to modify the code of the file.

<Package xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10" xmlns:mp="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/2014/phone/manifest" xmlns:uap="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/uap/windows10"     xmlns:rescap="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10/restrictedcapabilities" IgnorableNamespaces="uap mp rescap">
  <Capabilities>
    <Capability Name="internetClient" />
    <rescap:Capability Name="appDiagnostics"/>
  </Capabilities>
</Package>

Then in the main code, get current package by matching the PackageFamilyName.

var list = await AppDiagnosticInfo.RequestInfoAsync();
var currentPackage = list.Where(o => o.AppInfo.PackageFamilyName == Package.Current.Id.FamilyName).FirstOrDefault();
if (currentPackage != null)
{
    AppInfo currentAppInfo = currentPackage.AppInfo;
}

You could get AppDiagnosticInfo of all uwp apps that are running by the following code.

var list = await AppDiagnosticInfo.RequestInfoAsync();

And then you could get AppInfo from each item in the AppDiagnosticInfo list.

foreach (var diagnosticinfo in list)
{
    info = diagnosticinfo.AppInfo;
}
var id = info.Id;

Please note that you need to declare the following capabilities in the Package.appxmainfest.

<Package
xmlns:rescap="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10/restrictedcapabilities" 
IgnorableNamespaces="uap mp rescap">
  <Capabilities>
    <rescap:Capability Name="appDiagnostics" />
  </Capabilities>
</Package>
