Abstract: Users are experiencing an increasing number of alerts and notifications on their mobile devices. When it is inconvenient or not possible to view the network-connected device, an accessory can be used to save time and avoid missing notifications. A system comprising a network-connected device and an accessory are provided to address these problems. The accessory is capable of notifying the user of alerts from the network-connected device, allowing the user to quickly be advised of alerts without needing to first interact with the network-connected device. The system includes a method to selectively filter alerts so as to avoid unnecessarily interrupting the user in cases where the network device is inaccessible. The system is also capable of pushing new interface designs and themes from the network device to the accessory to alter the appearance and configuration of its display.

Abstract: Verbal requests of a user of a wearable electronic device can be routed wirelessly so that a third party service and/or concierge service can facilitate carrying out the verbal request. The routines of the wearable device service capture a stream of audio segments corresponding to a verbal request of a user of the wearable electronic device. The wearable device service sends the stream of audio segments of the user to the associated mobile electronic device along with any speech-to-text translations of the verbal request. The wearable device service communicates with an intelligent agent, such an artificial intelligence engine and/or a human operator, to handle the speech to text translations of the verbal request along with the audio segments corresponding to the verbal request from the user of the wearable electronic device and fulfill that request.

Abstract: A wearable device is disclosed that includes circuitry in both the display device and the securing device, for example a watch and watch band. The circuitry in the securing device is electrically connected to the display device electrical circuitry and may be used to extend the functionality of the display device or create additional display space for use by the display device. These are but two examples of possible uses.
