ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SIGNAL TRANSMITTED TO EXTERNAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18137742 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SIGNAL TRANSMITTED TO EXTERNAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an electronic device with a display, communication circuit, memory, and processor. The processor is able to identify a second application that is temporarily displaying a notification message on an external electronic device, based on the execution of a first application for controlling the external device. The processor can bypass the first application and transmit a notification message generated by the second application to the external device. It can also transmit information to temporarily cease the display of the notification message on the external device, based on identifying an event while the user interface is being displayed.

  • The electronic device has a display, communication circuit, memory, and processor.
  • The processor can identify a second application that is temporarily displaying a notification message on an external electronic device.
  • This identification is based on the execution of a first application for controlling the external device.
  • The processor can bypass the first application and transmit the notification message from the second application to the external device.
  • It can also transmit information to temporarily cease the display of the notification message on the external device.
  • This transmission is based on identifying an event while the user interface is being displayed.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be used in smartphones or tablets to manage and control notifications from different applications.
  • It can be applied in smartwatches or wearable devices to handle notifications without interrupting the user's interaction with the device.
  • This innovation can be utilized in smart home systems to control and manage notifications from various connected devices.

Problems Solved:

  • The technology solves the problem of interrupting the user's interaction with an electronic device when a notification message is displayed.
  • It allows for the seamless transmission and management of notification messages from different applications.
  • The technology provides a way to temporarily cease the display of notification messages on an external device without disrupting the user interface.

Benefits:

  • Users can receive and manage notifications without being interrupted in their current tasks or activities.
  • The technology provides a more efficient and streamlined way to handle notifications from multiple applications.
  • It enhances the user experience by allowing for uninterrupted interaction with the device while still receiving important notifications.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device includes a display, a communication circuit, a memory, and a processor. The processor identifies, based on executing a first application for controlling an external electronic device, a second application being ceased at least temporarily displaying of a notification message by the external electronic device. The processor identifies an event for transmitting a notification message generated by the second application to the external electronic device by bypassing the first application. The processor transmits information for being ceased at least temporarily displaying of a notification message related to the event, by the external electronic device, to external electronic device, based on identifying the event, in a state of displaying a user interface for interacting with a user in the display.
