Do-not-disturb modes

摘要

Methods related to do-not-disturb modes activated by a mobile device are provided. An example method may include receiving a do-not-disturb notification by a mobile device indicating that the mobile device is in a do-not-disturb mode. The method may further include temporarily disabling, when the mobile device is in the do-not-disturb mode, causing at least one communications feature associated with the mobile device and one or more additional communications features associated with one or more ancillary devices to be temporarily disabled. Another example method may include detecting whether a mobile device is in one of a stationary display screen face down state or a moving display screen face down state, and, when the mobile device is in at least one of the stationary display screen face down state or the moving display screen face down state, causing a first communications feature associated with the mobile device to be temporarily disabled and sending a do-not-disturb notification to a server. Systems and computer-readable media are also described.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
providing for display a user interface identifying a mobile device of a user and at least one ancillary device belonging to the user, and permitting the user to select communications services to be temporarily disabled by a server in response to activation of a do-not-disturb mode and applied across the mobile device of the user and the at least one ancillary device belonging to the user; receiving, by the server from the mobile device of the user, a do-not-disturb notification regarding communications features associated with the mobile device and accessible on the at least one ancillary device indicating that the mobile device has activated the do-not-disturb mode in response to a determination that a physical orientation of a display screen of the mobile device is stationary downwardly facing; and causing by the server, when the mobile device has activated the do-not-disturb mode in response to the determination of the physical orientation of the mobile device, at least one communications feature from among the communications services selected by the user and accessible on the at least one ancillary device belonging to the user to be temporarily disabled by the server based on a selection from the user interface, wherein the at least one communications feature is not accessible on the mobile device.
