Abstract
A mobile device is provided having a smart card. The smart card is programmed with UICC applications metadata that is provided to the mobile device during a power-up or reset routine. The mobile device uses the UICC applications metadata to generate a user interface that allows a user to launch directly an application on the smart card. Icons for the UICC applications can be displayed together with icons for applications residing on the mobile device. In this way, the user selection of UICC resident applications is facilitated and can be made transparent to the user.
