Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to account recovery. An example method includes, at a computer system in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices: performing a recovery contact set up process including providing a notification to a contact; after performing the recovery contact set up process, receiving, via the one or more input devices, a request to initiate an account recovery process; in response to the request to initiate the account recovery process and without providing a request to the contact, displaying, via the display generation component, a recovery code interface for receiving a set of recovery credentials; while displaying of the recovery code interface, receiving the set of recovery credentials; in accordance with a determination that the recovery credentials are valid, performing a recovery function; and in accordance with a determination that the recovery credentials are not valid, forgoing performing the recovery function.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for system and methods to crowdsource the location of wireless devices and accessories that lack a connection to a wide area network. One embodiment provides for a data processing system configured to perform operations comprising loading a user interface on an electronic device, the user interface to enable the determination of a location of a wireless accessory that is associated with the electronic device, generating a set of public keys included within a signal broadcast by the wireless accessory, the signal broadcast during a first period, sending the set of public keys to a server with a request to return data that corresponds with a public key in the set of public keys, decrypting the location data using a private key associated with the public key, and processing the location data to determine a probable location for the wireless accessory.

Abstract: This Application sets forth techniques for establishing a custodial relationship between a user device and a custodian device for recovering access to a user account and/or to encrypted user data with assistance provided by the custodian device to effect access recovery. A server of a cloud network service provides an anonymous identifier to associate with the custodian device and an account recovery key to store at the custodian device. Identity of an account of the cloud network service associated with the custodian device can be hidden from the server. The user device generates a data recovery key and provides a first portion of the data recovery key to the custodian device and a second portion of the data recovery key to the server. Integrity of the stored account recovery key and portions of the data recovery key are checked regularly by the custodian device and the user device.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device comprising a wireless processor coupled with a wireless radio, memory to store instructions, and one or more processors to execute the instructions. The one or more processors, based on the instructions, are to scan for a beacon advertisement using the wireless processor, store the beacon and a timestamp in a beacon advertisement buffer in response to detection of the beacon via the wireless processor, correlate a beacon advertisement with stored location data to determine a location estimate for a device associated with the beacon advertisement, encrypt the location estimate for the beacon advertisement using a beacon identifier broadcast with the beacon identifier, and transmit a hash of the beacon identifier and an encrypted location estimate for the beacon advertisement to a device locator server.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions to cause one or more processor to perform operations to share a set of keys used to communicate with a wireless accessory device. By sharing the set of keys, functionality of the wireless accessory device can be delegated by an owner to other individuals.
