how can I track my android application is download?

I am building an android application where I can know the number of downloads done by the users of my android application.

Is there any process. I had googled and has found it can be done by Broadcasting. But how can I apply Broadcast method in my code.

Please help!!

Solution

  • Do you mean you want to track how many user downloaded your app and installed it ?

    then its done automatically by playstore if you intend to publish app on google playstore you dont have to do anything.

    Update :

    if you want to track download by your self. then you can develop your own web service which will be called when app runs for first time.and database will record device id and you can get download statistics for your app.

    for example Webservice could be like registerAppInstall(deviceId)

    then you can count devices registered on db side to get statastics
