Abstract

See full text

Application specific internet access for synchronizing over a tethered network connection is disclosed. When a first device enters a tethering state the first device sends a wakeup message to a second device that is in sleep mode. The second device receives the wake-up message and determines at least one application that is to be synchronized over the tethered network connection provided by the first device. The at least one application is then synchronized and the second device returns to sleep mode. The second device to which the wakeup message is sent may comprise a device that was previously paired with the first device. The at least one application to be synchronized may be determined from a database stored on the second device that indicates a subset of applications of a plurality of applications on the second device to be synchronized on entering wakeup mode in response to the wake-up message.
