Disclosed are a method and server for providing an on-screen automatic response service using automatic pop-up through a voice call auto-reply. A method of providing an on-screen automatic response service (ARS) through a voice call auto-reply includes receiving a voice call from a mobile terminal, checking whether a software development kit (SDK), which is necessary to execute program location information (URL) for providing the ARS on the mobile terminal directly without user intervention, is installed, and executing the program location information (URL) directly without user intervention to provide the ARS or providing the program location information (URL) to the mobile terminal and providing the ARS according to an execution command for the program location information (URL) received from a user depending on whether the software development kit is installed. Accordingly, a separate database for checking the installation of a separate SDK is not required, and multiple steps for inquiry are not required. Thus, it is possible to simplify configuration, improve service speed, and also reduce operating costs.

Function-control instructions for controlling a function or feature of a device can be created remotely, locally, or both. A device can receive a function-control instruction or a function-control instruction embedded in received content. Additionally, or alternatively, a function-control instruction can be created locally based on user information or calibration information. Function-control instructions can be passed to an instruction execution application that interprets the function-control instruction. The instruction execution application can pass instructions, based on the function-control instruction, to the device for implementation.

A communication apparatus includes a user signal transmission unit that transmits a user signal required for an end user to perform communication; a manager function implementing unit that implements a function provided to a manager of the present apparatus; a license monitoring unit that monitors a license of the present apparatus, and outputs a function limitation signal when the license has expired; and a function limitation unit that limits the function implemented by the manager function implementing unit when receiving the function limitation signal. In a communication apparatus that transmits a user signal required for an end user to perform communication, a function of the apparatus is limited when a relevant license has expired, while preventing an influence of the limitation upon the end user.

Embodiments of the invention provide for facilitating a transaction using a communication device associated with a user. Certain embodiments allow for provisioning a communication device for use with an enhanced primary account identifier. The enhanced primary account identifier includes a primary account identifier (PAI) and a primary account identifier sequence number (PSI). The PSI is unique to the communication device and may be de-provisioned if the communication device is lost or stolen. A replacement communication device may be provisioned for use with a newly generated unique PSI without having to generate a new PAI.

Real time, remote access to and adjustment of the hearing aid of a patient while the patient is located in a normal life environment that is remote from a hearing professional. A session request initiates a programming session. Adjustable settings from the patient's hearing aid are wirelessly streamed to the patient's mobile device and from the mobile device to a streaming cloud server. The settings are stored on the cloud, streamed from the cloud to a hearing professional's computer or mobile device and displayed. The hearing professional then changes at least one of the adjustable hearing aid settings and the changed settings are streamed to the cloud, stored on the cloud, streamed from the cloud to the patient's mobile device, wirelessly transmitted to the hearing aid and stored there. A telephonic voice connection between the hearing professional and the patient's mobile device is used to transmit the patient's evaluation of changed settings to the hearing professional.

This document is directed to, among other things, communication systems involving networked contact center interfaces. One example method involves presenting a frame on a user interface to present information in a selectable format. Another example method involves using a circuit device to detect selection of a frame as displayed and causing display of further graphical information in an un-selectable format.

In a communication apparatus that transmits a user signal required for an end user to perform communication, a function of the apparatus is limited when a relevant license has expired, while preventing an influence of the limitation upon the end user.

A remote work support system includes a wearable device worn by a site worker, a mobile terminal carried by the site worker separately from the wearable device, and a support operator terminal used by a support operator who remotely supports the site worker. The wearable device includes an image capturing unit, a voice input unit, and a voice output unit. The wearable device transmits an image. The wearable device transmits and receives voice. The mobile terminal includes a display unit to display a received image. The support operator terminal includes a voice input unit, a voice output unit, and a display unit. The support operator terminal transmits and receive voice to and from the wearable device. The support operator terminal receives an image from the wearable device. The support operator terminal transmits an image to the mobile terminal.
