Here add this to your util class. It makes sure to handle different “flavors” and debug/release builds, as other answers do not:

@Nullable
public static String getApplicationPackageName(@NonNull Context context)
{
    final PackageInfo packageInfo = getPackageInfo(context);
    if (packageInfo.applicationInfo == null)
    {
        return null;
    }
    // Returns the correct “java” package name that was defined in your
    // AndroidManifest.xml.
    return packageInfo.applicationInfo.packageName;
}

// Convenience method for getting the applications package info.
@NonNull
private static PackageInfo getPackageInfo(@NonNull final Context context)
{
    final PackageManager packageManager = context.getPackageManager();

    try
    {
        return packageManager.getPackageInfo(context.getPackageName(), 0);
    }
    catch (final PackageManager.NameNotFoundException ignored)
    {
        //noinspection ConstantConditions: packageInfo should always be available for the embedding app.
        return null;
    }
}
