Abstract: Two electronic devices are configured with software that can enable or disable features such as voice calling, text messaging, or mobile data. By powering on a configured device or interacting with a user interface of the software, a user may choose which device is active and which device is inactive for these features. The software allows the phones to communicate with each other and/or remote servers in order to ensure that only one device is active for these features at any one time. In this manner, a user can share a single service plan, phone number, and/or SIM data between two devices and swap between them without conflicting with technology or contract requirements of a mobile service provider. This allows a user to switch to a secondary phone in order to avoid damaging or losing a primary phone, or to quickly replace a lost or damaged primary phone.
