Android app update broadcast

Question

So, im working on something that requires me to know when another application on the device is being updated. So my question is quite simple, does lets say YouTube or Spotif

Answer 1

According to android docs: Broadcast Action: A new version of your application has been installed over an existing one. This is only sent to the application that was replaced. It does not contain any additional data; to receive it, just use an intent filter for this action.

And onReceive method from your BroadcastReceiver should be:

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    // action to do

}
