 This screen allows the system user to prevent/​allow the mobile user to clear an app's cache. The whitelist is the exception to the blacklist, so if a package name appears in both lists, the whitelist takes priority. This screen allows the system user to prevent/​allow the mobile user to clear an app's cache.

 +Click the OK button and the following screen will show that the Amazon app is in the Blacklisted Packages list on the right.
 +
 +{{:​amazonaddedtoccbl.png|}}
 +
 +
 +**__Get All Apps__**
 +
 +This will refresh the All Apps list which contains all the apps currently on the device.
 +
 +
 +**__Get Clear Cache 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 CC Blacklist__**
 +
 +This sends the blacklisted apps to the device. The apps are the apps selected from the all apps list.
 +
 +
 +**__Remove Apps From CC 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
 +
 +
 +
 +**__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 the mobile user will still be able to clear the cache.
