Detecting before application uninstalls to perform particular task.

Android's Play Console shows uninstall counts.

Nesim Tunç: Uninstall counts are things they track on their side. Do you know of an API which lets you access that information?
Nesim Tunç
Robert Fischer: For on app side, there's no afaik. To access uninstall count maybe they have an API. Here's Google Play's REST API https://developers.google.com/android-publisher/api-ref/rest
For App Store https://developer.apple.com/app-store-connect/api/
If you haven't already checked out, please let us know if you find out something.

Android and iOS do not expose public API's which allow detecting when an app is uninstalled in order to execute code. Additionally, both platforms have put huge amount of resources into not allowing apps to arbitrarily track users.
You should consider looking into the analytics provided by the relevant app stores.
TLDR: It's not possible

I don't believe that either iOS or Android support this. Do you have evidence/documentation to the contrary?
