A method, a system, a User Equipment (UE) and an application platform for exchanging application information between a presence entity and a watcher, wherein the presence entity publishes application information or commands destined to a certain application, in the form of a presence tuple. The watcher subscribes to presence information associated with the certain application, and once authorized, receives the tuple with the application information or command. An UE or an application platform run several applications, and comprise a SUBSCRIBE Dispatcher module and a PUBLISH Handler module for sending presence SUBSCRIBE messages and presence PUBLISH messages for requesting or providing the application information and commands.
