Administering access to Google Play applications

Google Play is the main source of Android applications. According to your company's policies you

can determine:

• Whether end users can install applications on Google Play.

• Which applications end users can install on Google Play.

Access to Google Play is set up using the USER_INSTALL_APPS_GOOGLE_PLAY_STORE

parameter in the 46xxsettings.txt file.

The availability of certain applications is determined by completing black and white list sections in an

XML-based configuration file:

• Black list: End users cannot install applications from the black list. If the black list is empty,

users can install any third-party application on Google Play.

• White list: End users can install applications from the white list only. End users cannot install

any applications that are not in the white list. If the white list is empty, users cannot install

applications on Google Play.

If the configuration file is not specified, users can install any application on Google Play.

The APPS_CONTROL_FILE parameter defines the location of the configuration file.

Before you begin

Create a third party applications configuration file if you do not have one.

Procedure

1. Open the 46xxsettings.txt settings file in a text editor.

2. To edit the black list, in the <allowedUserInstalledAppsUsingGooglePlayStore

type="blacklist"> section, list the applications you want to include.

Use the following format: <app packagename="<Type the package name

here>" />.

</allowedUserInstallAppsUsingGooglePlayStore>

3. To edit the white list, in the <allowedUserInstalledAppsUsingGooglePlayStore>

section, list the applications you want to include.

Use the following format: <app packagename="<Type the package name

here>" />.
