    摘要: This application sets forth techniques for managing phone number-based user accounts. According to some embodiments, a server computing device can be configured to carry out the steps of (1) receiving, from a first client computing device, a request to create a user account based on a phone number, (2) in response to authenticating that the first client computing device is associated with the phone number: creating the user account based on the phone number, creating a hidden contact address based on the phone number, and assigning the hidden contact address to the user account, and (3) in response to receiving a notification that a second client computing device is associated with the phone number: requiring the user account to be updated to be based on a different phone number, or assigning, to the user account, a visible contact address based on the phone number.

    摘要: A method is proposed to automatically, securely and directly notify and inform, selected contacts in the digital address book of a user's device when there is a change in the user's contact information. A system is proposed that does not require the user to store or maintain private data to any third party service server or central database repository in the cloud or not in the cloud. The proposed system employs TetherTap (“TT”) Privacy by Design (“PbD”) architecture resulting in full EU GDPR and California CCPA regulatory compliance, storing and transmitting data with default address book and peer to peer (“P2P”) communication platforms. The method proposed does not require receiver devices to be programmed with system functionality, however, it is designed to allow the receiver of an update from the user to set up and install reciprocal functionality.

    摘要: A device includes a communication interface, an input interface, and a processor. The communication interface is configured to receive an audio signal associated with an audio call. The input interface is configured to receive user input during the audio call. The processor is configured to generate an audio recording of the audio signal in response to receiving the user input. The processor is also configured to generate text by performing speech-to-text conversion of the audio recording. The processor is further configured to perform a comparison of the text to a pattern. The processor is also configured to identify, based on the comparison, a portion of the text that matches the pattern. The processor is further configured to provide the portion of the text and an option to a display. The option is selectable to initiate performance of an action corresponding to the pattern.
