How can I find if a particular package exists on my Android device?

How can I find whether a particular package or application, say: com.android.abc, exists on my Android device?

Call any of the below method with the package name.

import android.content.pm.PackageManager;

// ...

    public boolean isPackageExisted(String targetPackage){
        List<ApplicationInfo> packages;
        PackageManager pm;

        pm = getPackageManager();        
        packages = pm.getInstalledApplications(0);
        for (ApplicationInfo packageInfo : packages) {
            if(packageInfo.packageName.equals(targetPackage))
                return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

 import android.content.pm.PackageManager;

 public boolean isPackageExisted(String targetPackage){
   PackageManager pm=getPackageManager();
   try {
     PackageInfo info=pm.getPackageInfo(targetPackage,PackageManager.GET_META_DATA);
   } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
     return false;
   }  
   return true;
 }

Without using a try-catch block or iterating through a bunch of packages:

public static boolean isPackageInstalled(Context context, String packageName) {
    final PackageManager packageManager = context.getPackageManager();
    Intent intent = packageManager.getLaunchIntentForPackage(packageName);
    if (intent == null) {
        return false;
    }
    List<ResolveInfo> list = packageManager.queryIntentActivities(intent, PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
    return list.size() > 0;
}

Kotlin

fun isPackageExist(context: Context, target: String): Boolean {
     return context.packageManager.getInstalledApplications(0).find { info -> info.packageName == target } != null
}

Intent intent = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN");
PackageManager packageManager = getPackageManager();
List<ResolveInfo> activities = packageManager.queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);
boolean isIntentSafe = activities.size() > 0;

We can check like this:

 if(getPackageManager().hasSystemFeature("android.software.webview") == true && isPackageExisted("com.google.android.webview")) {
            if (Constant.isNetworkConnected(Activity.this)) {
                 //Your Intent 
            } else {
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), resources.getString(R.string.internet_error), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        }   else
            {
                Constant.showDialog(Activity.this,"Please install the webview");
            }
    }

Make method for package check ! this credit goes to "Kavi" https://stackoverflow.com/a/30708227/6209105

public boolean isPackageExisted(String targetPackage) {
    List<ApplicationInfo> packages;
    PackageManager pm;

    pm = getPackageManager();
    packages = pm.getInstalledApplications(0);
    for (ApplicationInfo packageInfo : packages) {
        if(packageInfo.packageName.equals(targetPackage))
        {
            return true;
        }
}
return false;

}
