  • Publication number: 20180137132
    Abstract: A communication terminal apparatus, upon accepting a spoken instruction from a user, generates position data indicating a position of the user, and transmits the position data and audio data indicating the instruction to a server apparatus. The server apparatus discriminates a situation in which the user in possession of the communication terminal apparatus is placed, based on acquired data, and notifies content that satisfies a predetermined notification condition to the user. The server apparatus, in the case where it is discriminated that the user is in a non-daily sphere, relaxes the notification condition to be more relaxed than in the case where the user is in a daily sphere. The server apparatus, in the case where the required time necessary to have a meal is associated with content that includes information on eateries, raises the upper limit of the required time when relaxing the notification condition.

  • Publication number: 20170329287
    Abstract: Estimating unit estimates an alarm notification time. Presenting unit presents the estimated alarm notification time to a user. Setting unit sets an alarm notification time based on a user's operation performed relative to the presentation of the estimated alarm notification time. When doing so, setting unit, on detecting that presenting unit has not presented the estimated alarm notification time by a predetermined point in time prior to the estimated alarm notification time, sets the alarm notification time in the absence of a user's operation. Notification unit activates an alarm at the set notification time notified by setting unit.
