Abstract

In an example implementation, a method of controlling activity of a device includes concurrently detecting multiple unique device identifier (UDIDs) within proximity of a primary device, and determining that the multiple UDIDs are associated with a primary device activity. The method includes performing the activity while the concurrent detection of the multiple UDIDs persists, and stopping the activity when the concurrent detection of the multiple UDIDs stops.
