I am using QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission in my android app to get the list of installed apps on the device, and because of this my app got rejected on google play store..

Is there any other way to get the list of installed apps? Because I saw other similar apps, they don't use that permission but still they are able to get the list of installed apps on the device.

Thank You!!

@kenkyee I searched on stack-overflow, they are using the same approach and it works without that permission below api 30 and it requires the permission for api 30 and above

Can you please help, what should i do?
