Abstract
A method is provided that uses a server to dynamically configure software applications on an electronic device. Information is received from the device about the device (e.g. device OS, firmware version, make and/or model, etc.). The server determines based on the device information a set of capabilities of the device. The server then sends code for installation on the device to configure at least one of the software applications based on the determined capabilities of the device. A programmed server is also provided.
