__**App Notifications Screen**__

A System user can use this screen to prevent an application notification based on the package name. An application with a matching package name is prevented from showing status bar notifications. Wildcards (e.g., "com.xyz.*") are allowed in specifying application package names. Specifying "*" blocks all packages from showing a notification on the status bar. The whitelist is the exception to the blacklist. If a package name matches the package name pattern in both the blacklist and whitelist, the whitelist takes priority, and the application notification can be shown.


Below is the App Notification screen.

**__Get All Apps__**

This will refresh the All Apps list which contains all the apps currently on the device.


**__Get Notification Blacklist__**

This refreshes the Blacklisted Packages list. It contains all the apps that have been blacklisted by the system user for that device.

**__Add Apps To Notifn Blacklist__**

This sends the blacklisted apps to the device. The apps are the apps selected from the all apps list.


**__Remove Apps From Notifn Blacklist__**

This sends the blacklisted apps to the device that are to be removed from the blacklist. These apps are the apps selected from the all apps list.

**__Add/remove Package Name__**

If the system user knows a package name of an app, the package name can be entered in this box. It will be added to the blacklist. 
The * (asterisk character) can be used to specify all package names. The * is a wild card character and can be used replace other characters.
For example, com.abc.def.ghi could be blacklisted by entering:

  * com.abc.def.ghi
  * com.abc.def.*
  * com.abc.*

com.abc.* would also block the following package name com.abc.xyz


**__Clear All Whitelisted and Blacklisted Apps__**

This button will clear both lists of apps, so all apps will be able to receive notifications.



**__Whitelisting__**

The same functionality applies to whitelisting any apps, but please remember a whitelisted app is the exception to a blacklisted app. So if the same app appears in both lists, the app will be whitelisted and still recieve notifications.
