Android Question Get app date

[Zeev Goldstein]

In windows I can get the app exe creation / last modified date & time. That's easy.

How can I get at runtime the app's creation date & time?

Thanks

ok,
now there's another issue - this increases the version number
but still i need to manage the version number manually for google app store using #VersionCode: 73
is there a way either not to increase the version or that the version increment will also be for google play so i don't need to manage 2 version numbers?
or just ignore the version number and use the date as i initially wanted?
