    Do you mean to intercept the uninstall of your app, and query for a password? That is not possible. Similar questions has been asked before, for example here.

    Edit: It does seem as some related things can be done by making your application a Device Admin Application:

    “To uninstall an existing device admin application, users need to first
    unregister the application as an administrator.”

    However I am not familiar with the restrictions that comes with this, and if it allows your exact use case.
