Disclosed is a method performed by a wireless communication device for communicating with a wireless communication network, the network having network slices available for providing wireless access to the device, the network slices having mutually different network capabilities in terms of e.g. latency, bandwidth and reliability. The method comprises receiving, from the network, information on the network capabilities of the network slices, and obtaining a request from an application program of the device for communication resources. The method further comprises obtaining information on network capability preferences of the application program, and selecting one of the network slices for the application program based on the information on capabilities of the network slices and on the information on capability preferences of the application program. The method further comprises sending a request to the network for communication resources to use for communication over the selected network slice, and receiving, from the network, information on the communication resources to use for communication over the selected network slice.
