You could try adding a BroadcastReceiver listening for android.intent.action.PACKAGE_REMOVED events.

    Doesn't work: read [ACTION.PACKAGE.REMOVED](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_PACKAGE_REMOVED). it says: **The package that is being removed does not receive this Intent.** – Strider Feb 26 '16 at 08:29
  • My bad, I did not understand you wanted the uninstalled app to be notified. And I do not think this can be done... – malrok44 Feb 26 '16 at 08:37
  • No problem ;), your intentions were good. And u are right, this cannot be done, atleast... not without complex work arounds. – Strider Feb 26 '16 at 08:39

    @JamesGurera yeah we know, but you **can't** (yet?), [this post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18692571/how-can-an-app-detect-that-its-going-to-be-uninstalled/18816716#18816716) is as close as you can get! – Strider Feb 26 '16 at 09:00

You Register your BroadCastReceiver with this filter:

 <receiver android:name=".MyBroadCastReceiver">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>

  • Doesn't work: read [ACTION.PACKAGE.REPLACED](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_PACKAGE_REPLACED) it says: **A new version of an application package has been installed, replacing an existing version that was previously installed.** nothing about detecting uninstallation. This can be used for detecting updates. – Strider Feb 26 '16 at 08:59
  • This is what the [MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED) does! The OP want's to know how to catch his application being **uninstalled**. Not **replaced**. – Siddharth Lele Feb 26 '16 at 08:59
