  • Patent number: 10834556
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for sharing or recreating a state from a mobile device. For example, a mobile application state identifier can include a protocol identifier, a target task component associated with a mobile application executing when the application state identifier is generated and a sub-task component related to a user-interface active in the mobile application when the application state identifier is generated. The application state identifier can also include a user input component reflecting actions taken by a user during execution of the mobile application. A method can include generating, on a first mobile device, an application state identifier and transmitting the application state identifier to a second mobile device, wherein the second mobile device opens a mobile application associated with the target task to a user-interface corresponding to the sub-task component in response to receiving the application state identifier.

  • Publication number: 20150006526
    Abstract: Provided are systems, methods, and computer-readable media for determining locations of interest to a user. User activity over a period of time is obtained and used to determine geographic entities (e.g., locations) of interest. The user activity is aggregated by geographic entity and a relevancy score is calculated for each geographic entity. The geographic entity having the highest score is stored as a location of interest in a location profile for the user. Multiple geographic entities having the highest specified number of relevancy scores may also be stored.
