What is the purpose of running mobile device apps in a sandbox?

• to enable the phone to run multiple operating systems
• to prevent malicious programs from infecting the device
• to enable separate app icons to be displayed on the home screen
• to bypass phone carrier restrictions that prevent access to unauthorized apps
  

  Explanation: Mobile device apps are run in a sandbox that isolates them from other resources. Bypassing the phone carrier from preventing access to unauthorized apps is jailbreaking or rooting the device.
