  • Publication number: 20240086052
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments for intelligently customizing a user interface on a remote control. In a non-limiting embodiment, a method operates by receiving a user input associated with customizing the user interface for one-hand use when the user interface is in a first configuration. The user interface may a user interface element and the first configuration includes a first dimension of the user interface. In an embodiment, the user input is a touch-based gesture received on a touchscreen of the remote control. A user may be identified responsive to receiving the user input and the user interface may be customized from the first configuration to a second configuration based on an interface customization parameter. In an embodiment, the customizing includes reducing the first dimension of the user interface to a second dimension to allow for one-hand use by the user.

  • Publication number: 20230147633
    Abstract: Systems and methods for configuring an email engine associated with sequences of engagements are described. The email engine is associated with a first sequence of engagements and a second sequence of engagements. The email engine is configured to be activated based on completion of the first sequence of engagements. The email engine may be configured to generate and send an email to an email recipient based on a set of parameters unique to the email recipient and based on one or more government regulations. When the sending of the email is prevented because of the set of parameters or the government regulations, an error notification may be generated, and the second sequence of engagements may not be activated.

  • Patent number: 11567982
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to processing and organizing electronic content. In accordance with one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided that comprises receiving source data from at least one content server, the source data being associated with electronic content. The method also includes generating local data based on at least one of an analysis of the received source data or an extraction from the received source data. Additionally, the method includes classifying the electronic content as being associated with one or more content stacks. Further, the method includes generating representations of the electronic content based on the local data and generating instructions to display at least one content stack on a user interface, each displayed contact stack being operable to display one or more of the representations of the electronic content associated with the content stack based on the classification.

  • Publication number: 20140115495
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to processing and organizing electronic content. In accordance with one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided that comprises detecting a user interaction with the user interface and determining if the detected user interaction corresponds to (i) a dragging of at least one electronic message to an empty content stack or (ii) a dragging of at least one electronic message to an existing content stack. The method further comprises generating a new content stack on the user interface, if the detected user interaction corresponds to a dragging of at least one electronic message to an empty content stack, and updating the existing content stack on the user interface, if the detected user interaction corresponds to a dragging of at least one electronic message to the existing content stack.
