Abstract:
A computing device is described that includes one or more processors and at least one module operable by the one or more processors to determine whether the computing device is currently designated to display private information, receive an incoming communication, and determine that the incoming communication includes content that is private information. The at least one module is further operable by the one or more processors to, if the computing device is currently designated to display private information, output, for display, an indication of the incoming communication, and, if the computing device is not currently designated to display private information, refrain from outputting, for display, the indication of the incoming communication.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided related to synchronized networks. A synchronized network can include a node and additional nodes. The node can receive a packet including information. The node can determine whether the packet is from the synchronized network. After determining that the packet is from the synchronized network, the node can: send the packet to at least one of the additional nodes, determine whether a synchronized network interface (SNI) is on the node and is associated with the packet, where the SNI includes software executable on the node. After determining that the SNI is on the node and is associated with the packet, the node can generate a view of data in the synchronized network by: determining a user interface (UI) layout associated with the SNI, generating the view based on the UI layout and on the information using the SNI, and provide the view.

Abstract:
A computing device may output, for display at a display device, a graphical user interface. The computing device may receive a plurality of indications of user interaction with the computing device. The computing device may determine a set of one or more time intervals between receiving at least two of the plurality of indications of user interaction with the computing device. The computing device may determine, based at least in part on the determined set of one or more time intervals, a length of time to visually emphasize an alert in the graphical user interface. The computing device may visually emphasize, for the length of time, the alert in the graphical user interface.
Abstract:
A computing system is described that receives notification data associated with a user, and responsive to determining that the user is interacting with a first computing device at a first particular time, outputs, for transmission to the first computing device, the notification data. The computing system determines that the user is interacting with a second computing device at a second particular time, and responsive to determining, based on the second particular time being less than a threshold amount of time after the first particular time, that the user did not view the notification data at the first computing device, outputs, for transmission to the second computing device, the notification data.

Abstract:
Techniques for a computing device operating in limited-access states are provided. One example method includes determining, by a computing device, that a notification is scheduled for output by the computing device during a first time period and that a pattern of audio detected during the first time period is indicative of human speech. The method further includes delaying output of the notification during the first time period and determining that a pattern of audio detected during a second time period is not indicative of human speech. The method also includes outputting at least a portion of the notification at an earlier in time of an end of the second time period or an expiration of a third time period.
Abstract:
A computing system is described that receives, at a particular time, notification data, the notification data indicating a threshold amount of time for which the computing system is to delay outputting an alert based on the notification data. The computing system initiates, based on the threshold amount of time, a deferred output of the alert based on the notification data. Responsive to determining that the threshold amount of time has elapsed since the particular time, the computing system outputs the alert based on the notification data.
Abstract:
While in a first mode, a smartwatch can power down a majority of the smartwatch components to save power. In order to change modes, the watch may use a two-step method. The method for changing modes of the smartwatch includes detecting a movement of the smartwatch with a first sensor, such as an accelerometer, located in the smartwatch based on the movement indicating a command request. After the movement is detected, the smartwatch may power on a second sensor located in the smartwatch to detect a second event, such as an audio signal, with the second sensor. Finally, if the second sensor indicates a command request, then the method includes changing the mode the smartwatch. Based on either input provided to the smartwatch or a lack of input, the smartwatch can adapt a threshold at which the movement would trigger a command request.
