Abstract
Examples of the disclosure relate to sharing a device between two or more authenticated users. In examples of the disclosure an apparatus is configured to enable a first user to access one or more applications of a device. The apparatus can then enable authenticating a second user and enable the second user to access one or more functions of at least one application. The apparatus can also detect one or more peripheral devices associated with the second user and configure the apparatus to provide outputs to and/or receive inputs from the one or more peripheral devices associated with the second user. The outputs and/or inputs relate to the one or more functions to which access has been enabled for the second user.
