Patent number: 11310359Abstract: A data processing system that, in one embodiment, uses smart reminders to allow a user to decline an incoming phone or messaging call and to cause the system to set a smart reminder about the call. In one embodiment, the system can use the system's current state or context (e.g. the system is in a car or is playing a movie) to determine the type of reminder options to present to the user and to determine when to trigger the reminder based on the reminder option that is selected by the user.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2020Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Justin Santamaria, Marcel van Os, Donald W. Pitschel, Elizabeth C. Cranfill, Jeremy Brown

Patent number: 10574770Abstract: Modifying a notification on one client device can trigger the generation and transmission of a silent notification to another client device that is associated with the same user account. The silent notification can include instructions to query for and modify a similar notification, if present, on the other client device. Silent notifications that are undeliverable can be stored in offline storage and delivery can be reattempted at a later point in time.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2018Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Andrew H.

Patent number: 8751667Abstract: Hands-free services for Internet Protocol (IP) video calls through a peered hands-free device can begin when an IP video call invitation request that requests the client computing device participate in a P2P (peer-to-peer) IP video call is received. A generic incoming call object is generated based on the IP video call invitation request in a format that can be common for both incoming audio only cellular calls and IP video call invitation requests. The hands-free device is alerted of the incoming call based on the incoming call object. Responsive to receiving an indication from the hands-free device that a user has indicated to answer the incoming call, an IP video call accept message is transmitted and a P2P connection is established for the P2P IP video call, and the hands-free device can act as an auditory relay during the P2P IP video call.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2011Date of Patent: June 10, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Justin Santamaria, Justin Wood, Matthew Klahn

Patent number: 8725880Abstract: A method and apparatus for assisting in establishing an online communication session between client computing devices. An online communication session invite request message is received from an initiating client computing device, the message includes connection data of the initiating computing device and an online communication session endpoint identifier for an intended recipient. A set of one or more push tokens that are associated with the identifier is determined, where each of the push tokens identifies a client computing device. An online communication session invite message that includes the connection data of the initiating client computing device is transmitted to a set of intended recipient client computing devices that correspond with the set of push tokens. An invite accepted message is received from at least one of the set of intended recipient client computing devices that includes connection data of that computing device.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2010Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: Apple, Inc.Inventors: Justin Santamaria, Justin Wood, Berkat S. Tung, Joe Abuan, Patrick Gates, Jeremy Werner, Andrew H. Vyrros

Patent number: 8704863Abstract: Transitioning between an audio only circuit switched call and a video call. A client device, which is currently connected to one or more other client devices through an established audio only circuit switched call, receives input from a user to transition from the audio only circuit switched call to the video call. A video call invitation message is transmitted to the other client devices. The client device receives a video call accept message from the other client devices and begins transmitting video captured by its front facing camera to the other client devices. Responsive to receiving at least a video frame from each of the one or more other client devices, the client device transitions from the audio only circuit switched call to the video call. After transitioning to the video call, the circuit switched call is dropped.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2010Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Justin Santamaria, David McLeod, Jeremy Brown
