Apparatus, method, and program product for selectively obscuring data being displayed
Apparatus, methods, and program products for selectively obscuring data being displayed is disclosed. One apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to determine a security classification for data being displayed on a display and selectively obscure the data being displayed on the display based on the determined security classification for the data. Methods and computer program products that perform the operations and/or functions of the apparatus are also disclosed.
Detecting Device Movement And/Or Device Usage Within a Vehicle
Systems and methods are disclosed for receiving and transmitting accelerometer data and/or usage data, and analyzing the data to detect movement or usage of the device within a vehicle. A device, such as a mobile device, may detect a device movement event or a device usage event associated with the device. Based on the detection of the device movement event or the device usage event, a time associated with the event may be stored. The device may determine whether another event associated with the device occurs within a threshold amount of time from the time associated with the event. Based on a determination of whether the other event occurs within the threshold amount of time, the device may determine an event session associated with the device. The event session may comprise an instantaneous event or a continuous event. Data indicative of the event session may be transmitted to a server.
DETERMINING USER PROXIMITY USING AMBIENT LIGHT SENSOR
One example provides a display device comprising a display panel, a touch sensor, an ambient light sensor, a processor, and storage. The storage comprises instructions executable by the processor to monitor an ambient light signal received from the ambient light sensor, detect, in combination with a call event, a threshold change in the ambient light signal that is indicative of the display device being proximate to a body of a user, and based at least on detecting the threshold change in the ambient light signal, modify an operation of the display device.
DISPLAY ASSEMBLY FOR TERMINAL DEVICE, TERMINAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING DISPLAY ASSEMBLY
A display assembly for a terminal device, a terminal device, and a method for operating a display assembly are provided. The display assembly for a terminal device includes a display layer, capable of displaying information and being turned on and off; and a switchable film, disposed above the display layer, and capable of changing opacity of the switchable film.
Application Information Display Method and Related Device
This application discloses an application information display method and a related device. The method includes: An electronic device detects an update event of application information of a first application, and in response to the update event, the electronic device determines whether the first application is locked by an application lock, where the application information may be a widget or a notification message; and the electronic device displays a locking view over the application message after determining that the first application is locked by the application lock.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING MULTIPLE DISPLAYS AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a camera module, a first display, a second display, and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to display a first screen and a second screen for displaying at least one function of a camera application on the first display facing in a first direction and the second display facing in a second direction opposite to the first direction, respectively, wherein at least one of the first screen or the second screen includes an image obtained through the camera module, identify a first input for selecting a first function of the camera application through the first screen, identify a second input related to a subject's gaze or gesture in a state in which the first function of the camera application is selected through the first screen, and display, on the second screen, in a state in which the first function of the camera application is selected through the first screen, an indication indicating that selection of the first function by the second input related to the subject's gaze or gesture is restricted.
Information content viewing method and terminal
An information content viewing method includes displaying, by a terminal, a first lock screen or keeps in a screen-off state, and displaying, by the terminal, a second lock screen after receiving first information, where the second lock screen displays a first control, and the first control prompts that content of the first information is hidden, receiving, by the terminal, a first operation of a user on a touchscreen, and collecting and verifying, by the terminal, fingerprint information of the user based on the first operation and displaying, by the terminal, a third lock screen after the verification on the fingerprint information succeeds, where the third lock screen displays the first control, and the first control displays the content of the first information.
Systems and methods for restricting the use of a vehicle operator's electronic device
Systems and methods for restricting the use of vehicle operator's electronic device are provided. In a method by a telematics server, the server determines that a vehicle's engine is running and that the operator registered with the vehicle is in the driver's seat. In response, the server sends a message to the vehicle operator's electronic device for disabling at least one feature thereof. In a method by a vehicle operator's electronic device, the electronic device determines that the vehicle is running and that the operator is in the driver's seat. In response, the electronic device disables at least one feature thereof. The systems and methods can be used to discourage or restrict the use of electronic devices by drivers sitting in a vehicle with the engine running in accordance with laws in certain jurisdictions.
CONTINUOUS REWARDED FEEDBACK SYSTEM AND METHOD TO IMPROVE AD TARGETING ON A MOBILE DEVICE
A system and method including a downloadable application which forces to view targeted advertisements on their mobile device in order to gain access to use of the mobile device. The ads appear on a lock screen of the mobile device upon powering up or waking up of the mobile device. The user can take one of several actions with respect to the displayed ad and upon such action screen is unlocked and the user is provided with full function of the mobile device. The user can be incented for each action through the accumulation of points which can be used towards paying the user's phone bill or for receiving another reward.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SECURITY OF CAMERA
A method and a device are provided. The device includes a display, a camera module disposed below the display, a memory, and a processor operatively connected to at least one of the display, the camera module, or the memory, wherein the processor is configured to receive a camera security configuration change, identify an application being executed, determine whether the identified application corresponds to a configured condition, and based on a result of the determination, control display of a camera security pattern on a display area of the display corresponding to the camera module.
