See Documentation -> API Reference -> Native Application -> Native API Reference -> Application Framework -> Package Manager and Package Information. You can use package_manager_foreach_package_info to retrieve a list of installed packages. Then use package_info_foreach_app_from_package.

Here's the code I use for that purpose:

 

#include <package_manager.h>

bool callback_package_info(package_info_h package_info, void *user_data) {
 bool pkgSys;
 if (package_info_is_system_package(package_info, &pkgSys) == PACKAGE_MANAGER_ERROR_NONE !pkgSys) {
  char *pkgIcon, *pkgLabel, *pkgName, *pkgVer;
  if (package_info_get_label(package_info, &pkgLabel) == PACKAGE_MANAGER_ERROR_NONE) {
   if (package_info_get_package(package_info, &pkgName) == PACKAGE_MANAGER_ERROR_NONE) {
    if (package_info_get_version(package_info, &pkgVer) == PACKAGE_MANAGER_ERROR_NONE) {
     if (package_info_get_icon(package_info, &pkgIcon) == PACKAGE_MANAGER_ERROR_NONE) {
      addListItem(pkgLabel, pkgVer, pkgName);
      free(pkgIcon);
     }
     free(pkgVer);
    }
    free(pkgName);
   }
   free(pkgLabel);
  }
 }
 return true;
}

...

 package_manager_h manager;
 if (package_manager_create(&manager) == PACKAGE_MANAGER_ERROR_NONE) {
  package_manager_foreach_package_info(callback_package_info, NULL);
  package_manager_destroy(manager);
 }
