Android Question How to track an Un-Install Event

[AndroidMadhu]

Hello,
I want to track/catch the uninstall event.
It means that when I am trying to un-install a apk I want to track the uninstall event and then Update with value [flag] [For example 1] at the database server resides at Web.
Is there is any way that I can track when the user trying to uninstall a APK from his/Mobile mobile?

Please suggest.

There is no such "event".

One way to manage it, is by tracking the active sessions. This means that whenever the app runs, you send something to your server.

Register a static intent filter/broadcast receiver and listen for any incoming Intents and handle as you wish to handle in this situation.

Note that you need to listen to ACTION_PACKAGE_FULLY_REMOVED

The other intent will only work with foreground service.
