USER EXPERIENCE ENHANCEMENTS FOR LIMITING CALLS IN 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 lock mechanism such as a target based sliding lock mechanism on a touchscreen user interface display and while the lock mechanism is actuated maintaining the group communication channel in a second operating mode. The second operating mode may be a lockout mode and/or a blocking mode with respect to at least one other device in the group communication.
