The Connected App OAuth Usage page lists all OAuth connected apps that users in your org are accessing. If the app has an Uninstall button next to it, the app was created by a developer in another org. It’s recommended that you uninstall an app only when the original developer deletes the app on the other org. Uninstall doesn’t remove the connected app. It just removes the local copy that you installed to set the app’s OAuth policies in your org. By uninstalling the app, you’re only removing the OAuth policies that you set for the app in your org. You’re actually loosening your security measures.
To make the connected app inaccessible to your org’s users, click Block. Blocking an app ends all current user sessions with the connected app and blocks all new sessions. You can restore access to the app by clicking Unblock.
Do not uninstall connected app packages owned and distributed by Salesforce, such as the Salesforce1 for iOS package. Salesforce installs and manages these packages.
