Automatic personal assistance between users devices

摘要

Methods and systems are presented for providing automatic personal assistance on a user device (e.g., mobile phone). In some embodiments, a personal assistant on a first user device may respond automatically to a received input communication from a second user device. In some embodiments, the personal assistant may perform a local search of data stored on the first user device in order to retrieve data responsive to the received input. In some embodiments, the personal assistant may perform a local load of an entry into an application on the first user device in order to perform an action responsive to the received user input. In some embodiments, the automatic response may include sending a responsive output communication to the second user device. The automatic personal assistance may be customized based on user-editable automatic personal assistance settings.

主权项

1. A method for providing automatic personal assistance on a first user device, the method comprising:
receiving a voice-based input communication at the first user device, the input communication sent over a communication network from a second device; executing instructions stored in memory, wherein the execution of instructions by a processor executes the first personal assistant on the first user device to:
activates an automatic mode of the first personal assistant,automatically parses the received voice-based input communication to identify one or more keywords in the received voice-based input communication,determines that the one or more parsed keywords are associated with a responsive action,performs the identified responsive action, andgenerates a voice-based output communication responsive to the voice-based input communication, wherein the voice-based output communication includes information associated with the performed responsive action; and transmits the voice-based output communication over the communication network to the second device.
