Mobile terminal control apparatus

摘要

The objective of the invention is to arrange that, when a plurality of mobile terminals are connected to, for example, a vehicle-mounted device, a to-be-controlled application be automatically determined in accordance with the connection history and the types of applications on the mobile terminals. A mobile terminal control apparatus (1) comprises: a device control unit (12) that detects whether a plurality of mobile terminals (2) are connected or not and that holds device information and application information into a connection history (11); and an application control unit (14) that determines, out of a plurality of applications held by connected mobile terminals (2), a to-be-controlled application on the basis of the connection history (11) and an application DB (13). In this way, when a plurality of mobile terminals are connected to a vehicle-mounted device, a to-be-controlled application can be automatically determined in accordance with the connection history and the types of applications on the mobile terminals.

主权项

1. A mobile terminal control apparatus comprising:
a device controller that detects whether a plurality of mobile terminals with device IDs are connected and that holds device information and application information of each of the plurality of mobile terminals in a connection history; and an application controller, wherein if the device controller determines that a second mobile terminal is connected after connection of a first mobile terminal with a device ID different from that of the second mobile terminal, the application controller:
acquires a controlled application ID of an application that is under control of the second mobile terminal and a held application ID of an application that is held on the first mobile terminal from the connection history,determines whether a category of the held application ID matches a category of the controlled application ID, anddecides a held application ID whose category does not match the category of the controlled application ID as a control target.
