Use this code in your app’s `src/MainActivity.kt’ file.
import android.app.ActivityManager
import android.app.ActivityManager.RunningTaskInfo
import android.content.Context
import android.os.Bundle
import android.widget.TextView
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import java.util.*
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
title = "KotlinApp"
val textView: TextView = findViewById(R.id.textView)
val activityManager = getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE) as ActivityManager
val recentTasks: List<RunningTaskInfo> =
Objects.requireNonNull(activityManager).getRunningTasks(Int.MAX_VALUE)
for (i in recentTasks.indices) {
textView.text = "Application executed: ${recentTasks[i].baseActivity!!.toShortString()}ID: ${recentTasks[i].id}"
}
}
}
Make sure you have a TextView
with id textView
in your XML layout.
All the currently running applications on your smartphone will be shown in the textview.
