Patent number: 11184353Abstract: The embodiments set forth systems and techniques to authenticate a user device for device services, such as by transferring or extending a trusted device status from a separate and trusted associated user device, which can be paired with the user device. This can be done automatically without requiring the user to sign in at or on behalf of the user device, and the automated process can include verifying a trusted status for the associated user device, receiving data items from both devices, evaluating the data items, and facilitating an authentication of the user device when the evaluating returns a favorable result. Data items can include provisioned machine identifiers, temporally limited one-time user passwords, and a provisioned password reset key. Authentication or trusted device status transfer can be achieved by way of an authentication token that is given to the user device.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2019Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: James C. Wilson, Lestat Ali, Aniwat Arromratana

Publication number: 20200067931Abstract: One or more user accounts can be linked together to form a group of linked user accounts. A shared calendar can be assigned to a group of linked user accounts. A shared calendar can be a unique calendar assigned to the group of linked user accounts that can be accessed by each member of the group of linked user accounts to schedule appointments, reminders, etc. A shared task list can be assigned to a group of linked user accounts and accessed by each member of the group of linked user accounts. Members of the group of linked user accounts can add tasks to the shared task list that can then be viewed by the other members of the group of linked user accounts. This can allow a family to add tasks to the shared task list that can then be completed by other members of the family.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2019Publication date: February 27, 2020Inventors: Christopher D. Espinosa, Lestat Ali, Claire Marie Tokar, Edward Voas, Guyerik Bready Fullerton, Kevin Edwin Ridsdale, Maria D. Ioveva, Scott Joseph Adler
