Blacklist Voice Search - Android 6.0.1

Hi there,

Device: Zebra TC56
OS: Android 6.0.1

I am using Application Run control to hide all non-business related apps for a customer. I started using a whitelist, this only exposed the apps on the whitelist except for: Google, Voice Search and Tethering & Portable hotspot

Does anyone know how I can get rid of these applications? I thought of changing to a blacklist but I cannot find the Voice Search application name in Installed Applications on the device, must be a widget or a service part of the OS?

The other alternative I though of is using a script to disable these icons, any info on how to do that would be helpful.

Any help appreciated.

Hi Gavin,

Can you open one of these apps in the foreground and then send the following script to know the bundle id of the app while it is active in the foreground:

identify_activity

You will see a new log created in the device log section on the MobiControl web console once this script is sent. Once you have the bundle id for the app, add it to the blacklist and see if that disables the app from device. Most of the devices do support this script.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks
