Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an artificial reality (XR) application system controlling applications in an artificial reality environment. In various cases, these controls include automatically suggesting XR applications by determining an XR context and identifying applications that match the XR context. These applications can be suggested to a user, who can authorize their execution, setting permissions for the application. In some cases, applications can be divided into components which can be progressively downloaded. By providing application suggestions relevant to the current context and progressively downloading application components, applications can appear ambient, rather than relying on users to constantly download, install, or activate applications. Permissions for applications may be revoked permanently or for certain situations—either through user permissions selections or automatically in response to determined user intents. When multiple applications are simultaneously authorized to execute, the XR application system can employ a ranking system to prevent overcrowding.
