Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device, including a processing system including a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations of determining network capacity to provide an enhanced experience to user equipment running an application; determining whether the user equipment features can provide the enhanced experience, wherein the determination is based in part on capability, location and subscription status; and responsive to a determination of adequate network capacity and adequate user equipment features, offering the enhanced experience through the application. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Mobile device application for procuring network services

Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for seamless personal hotspot connectivity via personal hotspot tokens. According to one aspect disclosed herein, a personal hotspot-enabled device can include a processor and a memory. The memory can store instructions of an operating system and a personal hotspot application. The personal hotspot-enabled device can receive a personal hotspot token. The personal hotspot application can recognize, via a short-range communication component, a device identification associated with a peripheral device operating in proximity to the personal hotspot-enabled device. The personal hotspot application can request the personal hotspot token from the operating system. The personal hotspot application can inform the operating system of the device identification. The personal hotspot application can then receive the personal hotspot token associated with the device identification. The operating system can create a personal hotspot. The operating system can automatically authenticate the peripheral device to connect to the personal hotspot.
