Patent number: 11960615Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to managing user profiles. An example method includes, at a computer system in communication with a display generation component and an input device: receiving, via the input device, a user input including a request to access a first restricted media item; and in response to the user input: in accordance with a determination the user input is a voice input and the voice input corresponds to a user profile authorized to access the first restricted media item using voice inputs, initiating playback of the first restricted media item; and in accordance with a determination the user input is a voice input and the voice input does not correspond to a user profile authorized to access the first restricted media item using voice inputs: forgoing initiating playback of the first restricted media item; and causing display, at the display generation component, of a validation user interface.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Ma, Corey J. Peterson, Rob Bowles Sinclair, Hiu Yi Chan, Neil P. Cormican

Publication number: 20230251881Abstract: Systems and processes for application integration with a digital assistant are provided. In accordance with one example, a method includes receiving an audio input including a natural-language user input and identifying an intent object of a set of intent objects. The intent object may be derived from the natural-language user input. The method further includes identifying a software application associated with the intent object of the set of intent objects, providing the intent object to the software application to cause the software application to perform a task associated with the intent object, receiving a result response indicating whether the task was successfully performed, and providing an output indicating whether the task was performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2023Publication date: August 10, 2023Inventors: Carey E. RADEBAUGH, Brandon J. NEWENDORP, Corey J. PETERSON, Rohit DASARI, Trungtin TRAN, Vineet KHOSLA

Patent number: 11657813Abstract: Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant are provided. An example method includes receiving, from one or more external electronic devices, a plurality of speaker profiles for a plurality of users; receiving a natural language speech input; determining, based on comparing the natural language speech input to the plurality of speaker profiles: a first likelihood that the natural language speech input corresponds to a first user of the plurality of users; and a second likelihood that the natural language speech input corresponds to a second user of the plurality of users; determining whether the first likelihood and the second likelihood are within a first threshold; and in accordance with determining that the first likelihood and the second likelihood are not within the first threshold: providing a response to the natural language speech input, the response being personalized for the first user.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2020Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Corey J. Peterson, Jessica Peck, Anumita Biswas, Harry Simmonds
