METHODS, APPARATUSES AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR PROVISIONING APPLICATIONS TO IN VEHICLE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEMS WITH SECURED ACCESS

摘要

An apparatus for providing one or more applications to an IVI client device(s) may include a processor and memory storing executable computer code causing the apparatus to at least perform operations including providing an application(s) and associated data to a device in response to receipt of an indication of a selection associated with the application(s). The computer program code may further cause the apparatus to enable the application(s) to access requested data via a plurality of application programming interfaces during execution of the application. The computer program code may further cause the apparatus to provide the requested data to the application in response to receipt of a message(s) generated by a first application programming interface of the interfaces that received a request for the requested data from a second application programming interface of the interfaces. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided.
