Abstract
One embodiment provides a method, including: identifying, using a processor, a power level of an information handling device; determining, using a processor, that the power level is below a predetermined threshold; and disabling, based upon the power level being below the predetermined threshold, access to at least one application of the information handling device. Other aspects are described and claimed.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- identifying, using a processor, a power level of an information handling device comprising a plurality of applications;
- determining, using a processor, that the power level is below a predetermined threshold;
- and
- disabling, based upon the power level being below the predetermined threshold, and a use hierarchy associated with the plurality of applications, access to at least one application of the information handling device.
