  • Publication number: 20220262509
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to aggregating and sharing wellness data. The wellness data can be received by a user device from any number of sensors external or internal to the user device, from a user manually entering the wellness data, or from other users or entities. The user device can securely store the wellness data on the user device and transmit the wellness data to be stored on a remote database. A user of the device can share some or all of the wellness data with friends, relatives, caregivers, healthcare providers, or the like. The user device can further display a user's wellness data in an aggregated view of different types of wellness data. Wellness data of other users can also be viewed if authorizations from those users have been received.

  • Patent number: 11074572
    Abstract: In some examples, an account is provisioned onto an electronic device. In some examples, the device receives a value to fund the account provisioned on the electronic device. In some examples, the electronic device transacts with a contactless transaction terminal using the provisioned account and displays an indication of the transaction. In some examples, the electronic device transmits information corresponding to the provisioned account without checking for authentication. In some examples, the device receives user input initiating a process for moving the account from a first device to a second device. In some examples, the device receives account payment credentials from a second device when a set of payment criteria are met.

  • Patent number: 10073616
    Abstract: In an example implementation of the disclosed technology, a method includes receiving an indication of a gesture of an input object moving, at a rate of movement, from a first location of a presence-sensitive input device toward a second location of the presence-sensitive input device. The method also includes, responsive to determining that the rate of movement does not exceed a predetermined rate of movement, outputting, for display, a visual indicator moving from a first location of a display toward a second location of the display. The method also includes, responsive to determining that the rate of movement exceeds the predetermined rate of movement, outputting, for display, the visual indicator moving at a rate of movement that does not exceed the predetermined rate of movement.

  • Patent number: 9697829
    Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are described for receiving, by a speech recognition engine, audio data that encodes an utterance and determining, by the speech recognition engine, that a transcription of the utterance includes one or more keywords associated with a command, and a pronoun. In addition, the methods, computer program products, and systems described herein pertain to transmitting a disambiguation request to an application, wherein the disambiguation request identifies the pronoun, receiving, by the speech recognition engine, a response to the disambiguation request, wherein the response references an item of content identified by the application, and generating, by the speech recognition engine, the command using the keywords and the response.
