摘要： In one mode of an interface, a bounded area is displayed on a mobile device. A straight line is displayed that divides the bounded area into first and second areas. An angle of the line indicates an orientation of a first axis of the mobile device relative to a respective vector. In response to detecting the change in orientation of the second axis of the device relative to the vector, while maintaining the angle of the line at a first angle, a relative size of the first and second areas is changed in accordance with the change in orientation of the second axis. In a second mode, first and second bounded shapes are displayed. Positions of the bounded shapes with respect to each other are changed along one or more axes in response to a change in orientation of a surface of the mobile device relative to a respective vector.

摘要： A method that performs a series of interactive operations to calibrate a compass in a mobile device. The method requires a user to move the device to a variety of different orientations. In order to ensure that the device moves to a sufficient number and variety of orientations, the method instructs the user to rotate the device in a series of interactive operations. The interactive operations provide feedback to inform the user how well the user is performing the interactive operations. In some embodiments, the feedback is tactile (e.g., a vibration). In some embodiments the feedback is audible (e.g., a beep or buzz). In some embodiments, the feedback is visual (e.g., an image or images on a video display of the device). The feedback in some embodiments is continuous (e.g., a changing visual display) and in some embodiments is discrete (e.g., the device beeps after taking a good reading).

摘要： Techniques for processing task items are provided. A task item is electronic data that represents a task to be performed, whether manually or automatically. A task item includes one or more details about its corresponding task, such as a description of the task and a location of the task. Specifically, techniques for generating task items, organizing task items, triggering notifications of task items, and consuming task items are described. In one approach, a task item is generated based on input from a user and context of the input. In another approach, different attributes of task items are used to organize the task items intelligently into multiple lists. In another approach, actions other than the generation of notification are enabled or automatically performed, actions such as emailing, calling, texting, and searching.

摘要： Techniques for triggering an action associated with a task items are provided. A task item associated with a triggering criterion is provided. The triggering criterion requires an occurrence of any of a plurality of communication events. The plurality of communication events includes a telephone call. In some implementations, at least two of the plurality of communication events are of different communication types. In some implementations, the different types are telephone calls, emails, and text messages. The occurrence of a first communication event of the plurality of communication events is detected. It is determined the triggering criterion is satisfied. In response to the determining, a notification associated with the task item is caused to be presented to a user of the electronic device.

摘要： A method includes displaying three or more display layers, the three or more display layers including at least a first display layer and a second display layer. The method further includes shifting display positions of at least the first display layer and the second display layer. Shifting the display positions includes applying a first (x,y) offset to the display position of the first display layer, and applying a second (x,y) offset to the display position of the second display layer, wherein the first (x,y) offset and the second (x,y) offset are determined in accordance with a calculated difference between a detected orientation of the electronic device and a reference orientation. The method further includes redisplaying the three or more display layers after the shifting of the display positions. At least one of the first display layer and the second display layer is responsive to touch input gestures.

摘要： Methods, program products, and systems for proximity-based notifications are described. A proximity-based notification system can receive a request to be notified when a contact's mobile device is in proximity to a user's mobile device, obtain permission to receive information associated with the contact, receive the information associated with the contact, detect that the contact's mobile device is in proximity to the user's mobile device based on the information associated with the contact, and notify the user that the contact's mobile device is in proximity to the user's mobile device.

摘要： Techniques for capturing images are described. In one scenario, one or more processors of an imaging device can obtain geodata information and time information associated with the imaging device. The geodata and time information is obtained prior to capturing a first image. Next, one or more second images can be identified from a database of images based on the geodata information and the time information. The processor(s) can be communicatively coupled to the database via a communications network. Additionally, the one or more processors can determine one or more image capture conditions associated with the one or more second images; and automatically modify one or more settings of the imaging device to be used for capturing the first image. The settings can be modified based on at least one of the one or more image capture conditions associated with the one or more second images. Other embodiments are possible.

摘要： Some embodiments provide a device that employs novel processes for displaying data regarding its movement in a region. For instance, in some embodiments, the device displays concurrently two independent indicators of its movement in a user interface (UI) that it displays on a display screen (e.g., on its display screen). One indicator is a displayed route representation that illustrates the device's past translational movement within the region. The other indicator is a displayed orientation representation that illustrates the device's current orientation within the region. When the device can move rotationally, the current-orientation representation illustrates the device's rotational movement at the current location of the device. In some embodiments, the orientation indicator is, or is part of, a current-location identifier that is placed at an end of the route representation to identify the current location of the device within the region. The current-location identifier in some of these embodiments is a compass, with the orientation indicator being the needle of this compass.
