Need help in fetching app version of an another installed app on iPhone

Please help with the code to get version of specific installed app on iPhone.

I am basically android developer and new to iOS development.Kindly help me.

Guessing that you mean some arbitrary other app not developed by your team: there is no API that can give you that information. Unlike on Android, the iOS platform has no APIs to discover what other apps are even installed [*], much less tell you anything about them. That’s example of how the concept of user privacy can differ between the platforms.


[*] There’s actually a small crack in the armor with an API called canOpenURL (link) but it’s intended for a limited sort of cross-app integration, not for open-ended discovery of other apps, and tells you nothing about version numbers.

What Scott said plus…

If you’re app is deployed to a managed environment, it’s possible for the MDM system to know what apps are installed [1] and you could potentially have your app ask the MDM system about that.
