Android 5.0+ getRunningTasks is deprecated

Question

I went through question and question . But with this library, I can now get a list of foreground tasks using the following code.

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) { //For versions less than lollipop
            ActivityManager am = ((ActivityManager) getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE));
            List<ActivityManager.RunningTaskInfo> taskInfo = am.getRunningTasks(5);
            top = taskInfo.get(0).topActivity.getPackageName();
            Log.v(TAG, "top app = " + top);
        }else{ //For versions Lollipop and above
            List<AndroidAppProcess> processes = ProcessManager.getRunningForegroundApps(getApplicationContext());
            Collections.sort(processes, new ProcessManager.ProcessComparator());
            for (AndroidAppProcess process : processes) {
                if (process.foreground) {
                    top =process.name;
                    Log.v(TAG,top);
                }
            }
        }

Here, for Android 5.0+, I get the whole running foreground process, but I can’t conclude which application is the best application.

The output for the code above (else else condition)

com.android.vending
com.google.android.gms
com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
com.google.android.videos
com.test1
com.naag.testing
com.example.android.gettask

Here is my main application com.google.android.videos

Now, how to decide what com.google.android.videosis the main application from the above list programmatically?

How does applocker (or similar to applocker) work on 5.0+? I hope someone helps, which will be useful for someone.

, . 5.0 5.1.1. .

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) { //For versions less than lollipop
            ActivityManager am = ((ActivityManager) getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE));
            List<ActivityManager.RunningTaskInfo> taskInfo = am.getRunningTasks(5);
            top = taskInfo.get(0).topActivity.getPackageName();
            Log.v(TAG, "top app = " + top);
        }else{ //For versions Lollipop and above
            List<AndroidAppProcess> processes = ProcessManager.getRunningForegroundApps(getApplicationContext());
            Collections.sort(processes, new ProcessManager.ProcessComparator());
            for (int i = 0; i <=processes.size()-1 ; i++) {
                if(processes.get(i).name.equalsIgnoreCase("com.google.android.gms")) { //always the package name above/below this package is the top app
                    if ((i+1)<=processes.size()-1) { //If processes.get(i+1) available, then that app is the top app
                        top = processes.get(i + 1).name;
                    } else if (i!=0) { //If the last package name is "com.google.android.gms" then the package name above this is the top app
                        top = processes.get(i - 1).name;
                    } else{
                        if (i == processes.size()-1) { //If only one package name available
                            top = processes.get(i).name;
                        }
                    }
                    Log.v(TAG, "top app = " + top);
                }
            }
        }
