# JavaScript device object

The `device` object is supported since WRT 1.1.

The `device` object is a built-in JavaScript object in the widget engine. It was introduced in WRT 1.1 to allow widgets access to S60 Platform Services through Service APIs. The `device` object is used to create service objects for specific Service APIs. These service objects can then be used to access the services made available through the Service APIs.

The `device` object can be accessed simply via `device`. In the WRT environment, the term `device` is a reserved keyword and should not be used as a user-defined global variable name for other type of objects.

`device` object methods:

- `getServiceObject()`
