  • Patent number: 11368578
    Abstract: Two electronic devices are configured with software that can enable or disable features such as voice calling, text messaging, or mobile data. By powering on a configured device or interacting with a user interface of the software, a user may choose which device is active and which device is inactive for these features. The software allows the phones to communicate with each other and/or remote servers in order to ensure that only one device is active for these features at any one time. In this manner, a user can share a single service plan, phone number, and/or SIM data between two devices and swap between them without conflicting with technology or contract requirements of a mobile service provider. This allows a user to switch to a secondary phone in order to avoid damaging or losing a primary phone, or to quickly replace a lost or damaged primary phone.

  • Publication number: 20190162360
    Abstract: A temporary or permanent attachment device to a broom, mop, or other such cleaning device, or other stick/rod, which needs to be propped upright temporarily when not in use or permanently during storage. The attachment provides the ability for the stick to stand freely, independent of leaning against a wall, furniture, door or other to prevent the stick from falling to the ground or against other objects, or people or pets or anything else on its way down. The attachment collapses against the stick. It is basically a case, springs, straight extending tines and release levers which are releasably attached to the extended handle of the tool.
