A method of selecting applications, the method comprising:
- positioning a powered down mobile device into a close proximity of a near field communication device;
- selecting an application from a plurality of applications stored on the powered-down mobile device;
- and
- executing the selected application in the powered-down mobile device to interact with the near field communication device.
An apparatus for selecting an application, the apparatus comprising:
- a secure element configured to store at least two applications and;
- at least one button is coupled to the secure element, wherein the at least one button is configured to accept a selection sequence to select one of the least two applications in a power off mode.
A system for selecting an application in a power off mode, the system comprising:
- a near field communication device emitting a radio frequency identification field in accordance with near field communications standards;
- and
- a mobile device comprising a secure element configured to store at least two applications and at least one input means is coupled to the secure element, wherein the at least one input means is configured to accept a selection sequence to select one of the at least two applications in a power off mode while in the radio frequency identification field.
