Claims20
A system comprising:
- an interface in communication with a provisioning services layer comprising at least one server with a memory, the interface configured to acquire device information related to capabilities associated with at least one device and cause the provisioning services layer to generate a message when the at least one device supports at least one application,
- wherein generating the message comprises generating a plurality of messages that are transmitted to a plurality of devices, the at least one device and the plurality of devices being associated with one another via account information.
An apparatus comprising:
