1. A system comprising:
- a display of a vehicle; and
a processor of the vehicle, programmed toaccess paired device data to determine which mobile device is a primary-connected device and which is a secondary-connected device,send, to the display, a user interface of an application executed by the primary-connected device based on command information received from the primary-connected device,send the command information to the secondary-connected device to cause the secondary-connected device to display an auxiliary user interface corresponding to the user interface, andforward a command message received from the secondary-connected device based on user input to the auxiliary user interface to the application of the primary-connected device if the secondary-connected device is authorized to command the application.

Abstract
A vehicle may display a user interface of an application based on command information received from a primary-connected device, and send the command information to a secondary-connected device providing an auxiliary user interface. The vehicle may also forward a command message received based on user input to the auxiliary user interface to the application of the primary-connected device. The vehicle may also access paired device data to confirm that the secondary-connected device is authorized to command the application; and forward the user input to the primary-connected device if the secondary-connected device is authorized to command the application.

9. A method executed by a processor of a vehicle comprising:
-
accessing paired device data to determine which mobile device is a primary-connected device and which is a secondary-connected device; providing a user interface of an application executed by the primary-connected device to a display of the vehicle based on command information received from the primary-connected device; sending, to a secondary-connected device, the command information to cause the secondary-connected device to display an auxiliary user interface corresponding to the user interface; receiving a command message from the secondary-connected device responsive to input to the auxiliary user interface of the secondary-connected device; and forwarding the command message to the primary-connected device if the secondary-connected device is authorized to command the application. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising instructions of a connection hub application that, when executed by a processor of a computing platform of a vehicle, cause the computing platform to:
-
send, to a display of the vehicle, a user interface of an application executed by a primary-connected device based on command information received from the primary-connected device; send, to a secondary-connected device, the command information received from a primary-connected device to cause the secondary-connected device to display an auxiliary user interface corresponding to the user interface; receive a command message from the secondary-connected device responsive to input to the auxiliary user interface of the secondary-connected device; access the paired device data to confirm that the secondary-connected device is authorized to command the application; and forward the command message to the primary-connected device if the secondary-connected device is authorized to command the application. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)
