  • MULTI-FUNCTION STATUS INDICATOR FOR CONTENT RECEIPT BY A MOBILE COMPUTING DEVICE
    Publication number: 20100162139
    Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for regulating receipt of content by a mobile computing device. A status indicator is generated and used to describe whether content has been received or is currently being received. An interaction with the status indicator while content is being received causes stops receipt of content by the mobile computing device. After content has been received, an interaction with the status indicator transmits a request to a remote device, such a server, to update the content previously received by the mobile computing device. The visual appearance of the status indicator can also be modified to indicate whether data is currently being received or has been received.
