The present specification relates to a mobile device and a method for controlling the same. The present invention receives a first text from a memory or a first external device; obtains, from the memory, at least one receiver information including at least one from among the receiver's phone number and the receiver's email address; determines priority on the basis of the obtained receiver information; generates a second text on the basis of the determined priority and the received first text; displays the generated second text to a second external device which corresponds to the receiver information and is different from the first external device.

The present invention provides a contact management, creation, and filtering application on a mobile or computing devices by providing a contact list or address book with enhanced searching capabilities, whether the original address book or contact list is created by the application software of the present invention, with other application software while the application software of the present invention is running in the background, or the address book or contact list is being modified or sync either using the application software.

The disclosure relates to a method for processing a user input in a vehicle, in which a suitable subset is selected based on a result of an evaluation of the user input from a superset of personal data records. For each data record of the subset, a frequency value is then determined corresponding to a respective frequency of use. The subset is output to the user adapted to the frequency values. In order to offer a particularly efficient operability, it is provided that the superset is retrieved from a mobile terminal and stored in a memory device of the vehicle before the subset is selected. For adapting the output to the user, the determined frequency values of the data records of the subset are checked for a predetermined selection criterion, at the fulfillment of which the data record with the highest frequency value is determined as a VIP data record and marked and/or preselected upon an output to the user.

A safety event is determined as affecting a user based at least in part context data collected at a user device associated with the user. In some aspects, context data is detected from sensors on the client device, the context data describing a present context of the user. A deviation of the present context from a historical context is determined to be beyond a threshold. Determining that the deviation is beyond the threshold can be determined to correspond to a safety event potentially jeopardizing safety of the user. In some aspects, an action can be launched in response to determining the safety event.

Button functionalities for user interfaces, e.g., for use with a portable multifunction device, are disclosed. Exemplary button functionalities are described for an electronic device with a display, a rotatable and depressible input mechanism, and/or a button. Different device features may be accessed, depending on whether the rotatable and depressible input mechanism or the button is activated, and further depending on whether the activation represents a single press, a double press, or an extended press on the rotatable and depressible input mechanism or the button.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are configured to perform operations comprising determining a list of contacts of a user of an application; identifying a contact in the list of contacts that has posted a content item that is accessible to the user; and causing, through an interface of the application, presentation of the contact in the list of contacts with an indication that the content item is accessible to the user.

Methods and electronic devices for facilitating communication are described. In one example, the present application describes processor-implemented method. The method includes: receiving an audio signal; determining that the audio signal includes a voice command to communicate with a contact using a first communication type; and determining that communication with the contact using the first communication type is unavailable; and after determining that communication with the contact using the first communication type is unavailable, facilitating communication with the contact using a second communication type.

A method for a mobile terminal to initiate a communication, the mobile terminal being assigned a plurality of phone numbers, the method including: receiving a communication instruction to initiate a communication with a target phone number; determining whether there are any communication records associated with the target phone number by searching a communication history; if it is determined that there are one or more communication records associated with the target phone number, determining a phone number for use in the communication from the plurality of phone numbers of the mobile terminal based on the one or more communication records associated with the target phone number; and if it is determined that there is no communication record associated with the target phone number, determining the phone number for use in the communication from the plurality of phone numbers of the mobile terminal based on a most recent communication record.

An in-vehicle navigation apparatus with a handsfree function establishes a Bluetooth communication link with a cellular phone. When receiving from the cellular phone outgoing call history data and incoming call history data, which were stored in the cellular phone before establishing the Bluetooth communication link, the in-vehicle navigation apparatus stores, in a work memory, the received outgoing call history data and the received incoming call history data, equally to, of the navigation apparatus itself, outgoing call history data and incoming call history data. An outgoing call operation then becomes possible using outgoing call history data and incoming call history data, which are stored in the work memory.

In a computer-implemented method, a portion of an electronic document is displayed on a touch screen display of a portable multifunction device. The displayed portion has a vertical position and a horizontal position in the electronic document. An object is detected on or near the displayed portion of the electronic document. In response to detecting the object, a vertical bar and a horizontal bar are displayed on top of the displayed portion. The vertical bar has a vertical position on top of the displayed portion that corresponds to the vertical position in the electronic document of the displayed portion. The horizontal bar has a horizontal position on top of the displayed portion that corresponds to the horizontal position in the electronic document of the displayed portion. After a predetermined condition is met, display of the vertical bar and of the horizontal bar is ceased.
