USER EXPERIENCE ENHANCEMENTS FOR CONTROLLING A GROUP COMMUNICATION

摘要

User experience enhancements for conducting group communication sessions may include displaying visual feedback on a display to indicate a state of a group communication session. Embodiments may include establishing a group communication channel with devices in a first operating mode in response to inputs on a user interface detecting actuation of a target based sliding lock mechanism on a touchscreen user interface display and while the locking mechanism is actuated maintaining the group communication channel in a second operating mode. Other embodiments may include initiating a group communication session in response to a user input detecting actuation of a locking mechanism by a user on a user interface sending a request to a server for a priority floor access in response to the detected actuation of the locking mechanism and while the locking mechanism is actuated maintaining a group communication channel with one or more devices in a priority access mode.
