Abstract
Examples described herein include systems and methods for providing user-specific applications on a shared user device. The user device can receive a first instance of an application having a Package ID that includes an identification of a first user. When the first user is logged in, the user device can display an icon associated with the first instance of the application, based on the Package ID including an identification of the first user. When the first user is not logged in, the user device can hide the first instance of the application. When a second user is logged in, the device can display a second instance of the application based on the Package ID of the second instance including an identification of the second user. The user device can also display the same instance of a shared application to both the first and second user.
