Abstract
A wireless communication device includes at least two SIMs, including a first SIM and a second SIM. The device includes a memory storing multiple mobile applications for performing data operations. The device includes a processor coupled to each of the at least two SIMs, and the memory. The processor executes program code that enables the device to: select a mobile application to run. The program code further enables the wireless communication device to: identify a user-created setting that specifies one of the at least two SIMs as a preferred SIM to which the selected mobile application is assigned. The program code further enables the wireless communication device to: channel data operations associated with the selected mobile application to a data path of the preferred SIM specified in the user-created setting.
