I would like to notify my server that the user deleted the application. How can I accomplish this?

Unfortunately there is currently no way for an Android package to execute code when it is removed. However, you can register a BroadcastReceiver for ACTION_PACKAGE_REMOVED in a different package that will be called when packages are removed from the phone.

Also see this question.

Get application uninstall event in android

According to this post what you ask for is not possible. Are you by any chance using a C2DM implementation?

  • no, do you know if main activity's onDestroy() method will trigger before it starts to uninstall (if app is running already)? I might be able to work with that. – Michael Jul 21 '11 at 17:12
  • Test it out. Shouldn't take long to try. Remember to comment back with your results! – Kevin King Jul 21 '11 at 17:14
