How to determine the real names programms

Question

at the moment only the package names are displayed (see picture): enter image description here

what I want is: SlimLauncher for example instead of com.slim.slimlauncher

The corressponding code is:

final PackageManager pm = getPackageManager ();
    List< ApplicationInfo > packages = pm.getInstalledApplications ( PackageManager.GET_META_DATA );

    View inflate = getLayoutInflater(). inflate(R. layout. anwendung_starten_layout, null);


    String packetName = null;

    for ( ApplicationInfo packageInfo : packages ) {




        packetName = packageInfo.packageName;


        kinder.add ( packetName );
    }

Thanks a lot

Refering to this similar post the following should work:

packetName = packageInfo.applicationInfo.loadLabel(pm).toString();

Use PackageManager.getApplicationLabel(ApplicationInfo info):

final PackageManager pm = getPackageManager ();
List< ApplicationInfo > packages = pm.getInstalledApplications ( PackageManager.GET_META_DATA );

View inflate = getLayoutInflater(). inflate(R. layout. anwendung_starten_layout, null);

String applicationName = null;
String packetName = null;

for ( ApplicationInfo packageInfo : packages ) {
    applicationName = pm.getApplicationLabel(packageInfo);
    packetName = packageInfo.packageName;
    kinder.add ( packetName );
}

You can read PackageManager->getApplicationLabel(ApplicationInfo info) API from this link . With your code, try this:

packetName = pm.getApplicationLabel(packageInfo)
