First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method executed by at least one processor, the method comprising:
- identifying a request to access an application on a device;
determining if the requested application is a motion-restricted application;
upon determination that the requested application is a motion-restricted application, identifying a speed of movement associated with the device; and
controlling access to the requested application based at least in part on the identified speed of movement of the device.

Abstract
The disclosure generally describes computer-implemented methods, software, and systems for controlling access to applications on a device while the device is in motion. One example computer-implemented method includes identifying a request to access an application on a device, determining if the requested application is a motion-restricted application, upon determination that the requested application is a motion-restricted application, identifying a speed of movement associated with the device, and controlling access to the requested application based at least in part on the identified speed of movement of the device.
