Publication number: 20220091565Abstract: A user interface is provided to schedule a sleep schedule associated with an alarm. Various user interface elements may be presented using the user interface. Responsive to user selection of these user interface elements, certain actions may be performed to configure aspects of the sleep schedule.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2021Publication date: March 24, 2022Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Roy J.E.M. Raymann, Jay Kriz Blahnik, Stephanie M. Greer, Aroon Pahwa, Jonathan T. Varbel, Kevin M. Lynch

Patent number: 11194294Abstract: Sleep alerts associated with an alarm can be scheduled using a first electronic device. Once scheduled, data can be collected from a second electronic device. This data can be used to determine an appropriate device, other than the first electronic device, at which the sleep alert can be presented. Once determined, the information can be sent to the appropriate device for presenting the sleep alert.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2018Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Roy J. E. M. Raymann, Jay Kriz Blahnik, Stephanie M. Greer, Aroon Pahwa, Jonathan T. Varbel, Kevin M. Lynch

Publication number: 20190320972Abstract: In some implementations, a provisional determination that a user of a first device is awake may be based on data indicating that the first device is being used. Also, sleep sounds associated with a human sleeping may be detected, and sleep sound information corresponding to the user may be obtained. Next, the detected sleep sounds may be compared to the sleep sound information, and a determination may be made as to whether the detected sleep sounds are attributable to the user based on the comparison of the detected sleep sounds and the sleep sound information. In addition, the provisional determination that the user is awake may be revised to indicate that the user is sleeping in response to a determination that the detected sleep sounds are being performed by the user in order to provide a more accurate sleep determination for the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2019Publication date: October 24, 2019Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Guy L. Tribble, Roy J. Raymann, Wren N. Dougherty, Divya Nag, Deborah M. Lambert, Stephanie M. Greer, Thomas R. Gruber

Publication number: 20190213060Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device may detect that a user of the computing device intends to sleep. The computing device may cause a reminder notification to be presented on a display of the computing device that prompts the user to prepare one or more secondary devices for sleep. The computing device may obtain, for each of the one or more secondary devices, a desired state for sleep specified by the user. The computing device may cause, for each of the one or more secondary devices, a current state to change to the desired state for sleep. In some implementations, the user activities may be detected by receiving sensor data from one or more sensor devices of the computing device and identifying the user activities based on the received sensor data. In some implementations, the computing device may automatically change the current state to the desired state for sleep.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2019Publication date: July 11, 2019Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Roy J. Raymann, Wren N. Dougherty, Divya Nag, Deborah M. Lambert, Stephanie M. Greer, Thomas R. Gruber

Patent number: 10054909Abstract: An adjustable alarm indicator of an alarm application is described. The adjustable alarm indicator may be presented in connection with an alarm setting sequence. The adjustable alarm indicator may include a variable element having a variable annular shape, a first element associated with a first end of the variable element, and a second element associated with a second end of the variable element. The first element may be independently moveable to adjust the size of the variable element. The second element also may be independently moveable to adjust the size of the variable element.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2017Date of Patent: August 21, 2018Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Roy J. E. M. Raymann, Jay Kriz Blahnik, Stephanie M. Greer, Aroon Pahwa, Jonathan T. Varbel
