Above answers are pretty good.

Your Question is:- Get icons of all installed apps in android? you want list of install apps icon

Here is the code which help you to get install apps list with Application (icons,packages names).

**Declare variable in your Activity**

private CustomAppListAdapter customAppListAdapter;
private ArrayList appListMainArrayList;
private AppListMain appListMain;

Just call below function loadApps() in your Activity onCreate()

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_app_list);
    loadApps();

}

public void loadApps() {
    try {
        packageManager = getPackageManager();
        appListMainArrayList = new ArrayList<>();
        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
        intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
        List resolveInfoList = packageManager.queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);

        for (ResolveInfo resolveInfo : resolveInfoList) {
            AppListMain appListMain = new AppListMain();
            appListMain.setAppIcon(resolveInfo.activityInfo.loadIcon(packageManager));
            appListMain.setAppName(resolveInfo.loadLabel(packageManager).toString());
            appListMain.setAppPackage(resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName);
            appListMainArrayList.add(appListMain);
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}
