Abstract
A method and system for managing a display of a terminal device comprises supporting communication of the terminal device with one or more first controllers of a first vehicle via a first data bus. A user level is determined of a user of the first vehicle based on an identity of the user as verified by an authentication process. The identity and user level of a corresponding user is stored in the terminal device. Permission data is retrieved on first enabled features and first disabled features for the first vehicle from the one or more first controllers based on the determined user level. The first enabled features are displayed on a display associated with the terminal device consistent with the retrieved permission data.
