Abstract:
Systems and methods for controlling access to a particular functionality of a wireless communication device are described. For example, a device can include a memory and a processor that is operatively coupled to the memory. The processor can be configured to display a list of entities that have applications installed on the device that can access a particular functionality of the device; display, for each entity, a complete list of applications associated with the corresponding entity and installed on the device, wherein each of the listed applications can access the particular functionality of the device; and provide a respective graphical switch for each entity and by which access is denied to the particular functionality of the device to all of the listed applications associated with the corresponding entity.
