That would be useful to know, though I'm not sure there's a way to tell that at runtime. sourceDir on ApplicationInfo, perhaps. > I would bet that the initial install does a verification but the launcher > likely doesn't do it every time.

It's only overkill if it doesn't help. I'm going to be in a similar situation in a few months (I hope), distributing APKs with large assets that should allow install-to-SD for older devices.
