A flutter plugin that helps to get date of the app installation
Note
This plugin most likely works but is not actively maintained. If you face any issues, please create a pull request
How to use:
late String installDate;
// Platform messages may fail, so we use a try/catch
try {
final DateTime date = await AppInstallDate().installDate;
installDate = date.toString();
} catch (e, st) {
installDate = 'Failed to load install date';
}On android it is using the PackageManager to get install date from the package info
On these platforms it is using application document directory's creation date. This method is also used in native development
