Systems, methods, and apparatuses are directed to facilitating avatar representation of users within proximity using approved avatars. In one embodiment, logic may be configured to determine communication devices that are within a proximity threshold. The determined communication devices may include first and second communication devices that are associated with first and second users, respectively. The first user may be associated with a first avatar and the second user may be associated with a second avatar. The logic may also be configured to determine a request initiated at the first communication device for avatar information associated with one or more users of the determined communication devices. The logic may further be configured to provide the second avatar to the first user via the first communication device based on determining that the second avatar is included in an approved avatar set.

Avatar representation of users within proximity using approved avatars

Systems, methods, and apparatuses are directed to application registration with a non-OS service. In one embodiment, logic may be configured to provide an installation indication that an installation of an application has been initiated on an operating system of the communication device to a service configured to run on the operating system. The logic may also be configured to provide, to the application, a registration request that is initiated by the service based on receipt of the installation indication by the service and that notifies the application to register with the service. The logic may further be configured to provide registration information associated with the application to the service based on receipt of the registration request by the application. In another embodiment, the service may be a non-OS service configured to maintain registration information for a plurality of applications installed on the operating system.
