+### `cacheMode`
+
+Overrides the way the cache is used. The way the cache is used is based on the navigation type. For a normal page load, the cache is checked and content is re-validated as needed. When navigating back, content is not revalidated, instead the content is just retrieved from the cache. This property allows the client to override this behavior.
+
+Possible values are:
+- `LOAD_DEFAULT` - Default cache usage mode. If the navigation type doesn't impose any specific behavior, use cached resources when they are available and not expired, otherwise load resources from the network.
+- `LOAD_CACHE_ELSE_NETWORK` - Use cached resources when they are available, even if they have expired. Otherwise load resources from the network.
+- `LOAD_NO_CACHE` - Don't use the cache, load from the network.
+- `LOAD_CACHE_ONLY` - Don't use the network, load from the cache.

+| Type    | Required | Default      | Platform |
+| ------- | -------- | -------------| -------- |
+| string  | No       | LOAD_DEFAULT | Android  |

 ### `pagingEnabled`
 
 If the value of this property is true, the scroll view stops on multiples of the scroll view’s bounds when the user scrolls. The default value is false.
