Abstract: A device which runs software applications includes a network interface, a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and at least one processor. The device identifies that a link for installation of a new software application is selected by user interaction with a software application that is running on the device. In response to the identification, an installation client is invoked to run in the background on the device without exiting the currently-running software application. The installation client is instructed to automatically download an installation file of the new software application over the network using the network interface. The new software application is installed on the device using the downloaded installation file.

Abstract: A distribution server for controlling data item downloads maintains at least one download constraint for a respective data item. When a query for permission to download the data item is input from a user device, the distribution server checks whether the download constraints are met. When the respective download constraints are met, a response is sent to the user device that the download is permitted. When the respective download constraints are not met, a response is sent to the user device that the download is prohibited.

Abstract: A method and a client device for dynamically replacing interactive content of a quick setting bar are disclosed. The method comprises: monitoring activity of a user on a terminal client and the terminal client state. Identifying content currently presented to the user. Selecting one or more graphical user interface elements to present on the quick setting bar. The one or more graphical user interface elements have been selected based on a content list acquired from a storage according to data and a user profile calculated based on the user activity and terminal client state. Moreover, this comprises updating the quick setting bar to display the one or more graphical user interface elements while the currently presented content is displayed by a presentation unit of the terminal client.

Abstract: A device adapted to run software applications includes a network interface, a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and at least one processor. The network interface enables device communication over a network. At least one processor executes instructions stored in the storage medium to: identify that a link for installation of a new software application is selected by user interaction with a current software application running on the device; in response to identifying that the link was selected, invoke, without exiting the second software application, an installation client to run in the background on the device; instruct the installation client to automatically download an installation file of the new software application over the network using the network interface; and using the downloaded installation file, install the first software application on the device.
