Abstract: Methods and devices for generating an action item summary are described. In one example embodiment, the present application describes a processor-implemented method. The method includes: receiving a request for creation of an action item, the action item comprising a record of a proposed future action; obtaining context information associated with the action item; storing the action item and context information; and generating a sentence describing the action item based on the context information associated with the action item.

Abstract: Methods and devices for providing action item reminders are described. In one example embodiment, the present application describes a method performed by a processor on an electronic device. The method includes: receiving a request for creation of an action item, the action item being a record of a proposed future action; obtaining context information associated with the action item, the context information specifying two or more reminder conditions associated with the action item; and triggering a reminder of the action item based on the two or more reminder conditions.
