Patent number: 11846515Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device displays suggested routes based on the characteristics of respective vehicles. In some embodiments, an electronic device receives data for respective vehicles from a source external to the electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device anonymizes a vehicle identifier and determines customized suggested routes using the anonymized vehicle identifier.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2020Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Yun Jae Kim, Brian J. Andrich, Erik G. Sodervall, Amanda Y. Miyahira, Eric D. Schlakman

Patent number: 10581981Abstract: A dual-device tutorial system can facilitate user learning about a “primary” device by providing explanatory information on a “supporting” device while the user interacts with the primary device. The primary and supporting devices can be devices of different types. From a user perspective, the primary device can operate exactly as it would in normal (non-tutorial) use and can send event messages and/or other signals to the supporting device. Based on the event messages and/or other signals, the supporting device can provide explanatory information responsive to user interactions with the primary device.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2016Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Alexander M. Hunter, Eric D. Schlakman, Ryan K. Mears, Ieyuki Kawashima, Ryan M. Romero, Ronald L. Jett, Andrew M. Fallon, Yen Lai, David A. Rudolph, Andrew T. Dean, Ameya A. Mhatre

Patent number: 10091143Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable medium are provided for providing dynamic rule-based messages. For example, a user device may identify physical activity information. Based at least in part on the activity information, the device may determine whether a physical activity goal has been reached. The device may determine whether to present a dynamic progress update message based at least in part on a time since a first activity message was presented and whether the physical activity goal has been reached. In some instances, when it is determined to present the dynamic progress update message, the device may access a data structure configured to maintain progress update information associated with respective time intervals. The device may then retrieve the dynamic progress update message that corresponds to a particular time interval from the data structure. The device may also present the message for the particular time interval.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2017Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Jay Kriz Blahnik, Eric D. Schlakman, Siji Rachel Tom, Daniel S. Keen, Aaron P. Thompson, Jed R. Cohen, Tasha R. Klubock
