automatically start an application after turning a device on

Hi

Is it possible to have an application started after the mobile is turned on? Something like the autostart folder on windows. Is it possible for an application to put itself into this "autostart folder"?

Thanks in advance

Depends on what your phone is.

For Series 60 phones these two can start up whatever applications you have on the phone, when it is powered on:

Hi

Thanks for this.
But how can I make it by myself? Is there some kind of registry? (Nokia 3650)

Greetings

I don't know how, exactly, to do it, but if you search the SDK for the word "recognizer" you should be on the right track.
