How to detect if an app is installed without opening it?

I need to detect is some of my apps are instaled on the device (iOS). I know that I can try to open the app using system.openURL()and test if it returns false. But I do not want to open the app if it is installed. I need something like canOpenURL(). Is there a workaround?
The only idea I have is a ping-pong between these two apps: calling custom URL of the second apps and passing the first app custom url as a parameter, then the second app can run the first app again… Hmmm, probably not a good idea… [import]uid: 7038 topic_id: 25795 reply_id: 325795[/import]
