    Abstract: An example process includes at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory: while the electronic device is in a locked state and in communication with an external accessory device: receiving a natural language input; determining whether the natural language input corresponds to a secure task request; in accordance with a determination that the natural language input corresponds to a secure task request: determining whether one or more states of the external accessory device satisfy a set of authentication criteria; and in accordance with a determination that the one or more states of the external accessory device satisfy the set of authentication criteria: initiating, by the electronic device, a secure task corresponding to the natural language input; and providing an output indicative of the initiated secure task.

    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a portable device, which is configured to join a known Wi-Fi network. While the device is not associated with a known access point, the device scans for access points at a scanning frequency wherein information about known access points has been stored in a database in the device. During this scanning process, the device determines whether the device is proximate to a known access point and the device sets the device's scanning frequency based on whether the device is proximate to a known access point.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for signaling during a low power state. Wireless devices that are operating in “sleep” modes may be kicked off wireless local area network (WLAN) networks due to inactivity. Consequently, in one regard, a client device is disclosed that programs its firmware to periodically transmit “keep-alive” messages. In one exemplary variant, the keep-alive message is a unicast address resolution protocol (ARP) message that is addressed to the network gateway. This keep-alive ARP prevents the device from being kicked off the network, which reduces wake up times, yet still permits low power operation, thereby conserving device power and enhancing user experience.
