  • Patent number: 10268350
    Abstract: A method includes analyzing, on a first computing device, data from second computing device(s) of user interaction with a user interface of an application previously executed on the second computing device(s). The data corresponds to events caused by the user interaction with the user interface of the application. The first computing device generates representation(s) of the analyzed data and outputs the representation(s) of the user interaction. Another method includes capturing and logging, by a computing device, events caused by user interaction with a user interface of an application when the application is executed on the computing device. In response to a trigger, data comprising the captured and logged events is sent toward another computing device. Another method includes instrumenting a measurement library into an application to create an instrumented version of the application, and sending the instrumented application to computing device(s).

  • Patent number: 10241641
    Abstract: A wireless communication device may be operated to facilitate directing user applications to use WLAN data connections. One of the user applications generates an application request for a URI, and a browser application requests a translation of the URI into an IP address. An LTE transceiver exchanges wireless data with an LTE network to translate the URI into the IP address. A WLAN transceiver detects a WLAN data connection. The browser application identifies that the LTE transceiver is exchanging wireless data with the LTE network and that the WLAN data connection is detected, and responsively processes a WLAN identifier for the WLAN data connection and an application identifier for the user application to determine if a user WLAN notice should be presented. If the WLAN notice should be presented, the browser application generates the user WLAN notice. The user WLAN notice is displayed to the user on a graphical display.
