 __**App Notifications Screen**__ __**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.

 +Below shows how to add the Amazon app to the Notification blacklist. Please note it is the same process for adding apps to the whitelist.
 +
 +
 +Deselect all apps in the All Apps list under Notification Blacklist. (click th upper most check tick), then select only the Amazon app.
 +
 +Click the Add Apps To Notifn blacklist button and the following screen will appear.
 +
 +__Please note the command can be sent straight to the device with a group can be included or can be added to a policy.__

 +
 +
 +Click the OK button and the following screen will show that the Amazon app is in the Blacklisted Packages list on the right.
 +
 +{{:​amazonaddedtonotifbl.png|}}
 +
 +
 +**__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.
