Blacklisting apps

For full information see here:

https://developer.android.com/training/package-visibility/declaring

You'll need to declare android permissions, for example, the suggested way of doing this is by specifying your packages, e.g.

<queries>
    <package android:name="com.abc.def"/>
</queries>

Or, declare all. That's not suggested

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES"/>

We also have a utility function blacklistRootingApps() in order to detect apps that are used for rooting an application

Configuration

Default

safeToRun(buildSafeToRunCheckList {
    add { blacklistedAppCheck("com.blacklisted.package1", "com.blacklisted.package2") }
})

Reporting

blacklistConfiguration {
    +"com.abc.def"
    +packageName
    blacklistRootingApps()
}.error()
