> APIs are great.. i want an app to be able to list all the apps installed.

That a big No. List of apps uniquely identifies the device and the user. Is this api available??




Contact list access does that too... and a bunch of apps get it.

I just want the app to ask me, and me to decide if the app really needs it or not.


On iOS they ask for contacts access, and you can deny.
