MULTI-DEVICE CHARGING USER INTERFACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18669322 titled 'MULTI-DEVICE CHARGING USER INTERFACE

The abstract of the patent application describes a user interface for charging electronic devices. When a first device with a display detects that either itself or a second device has entered a wireless charging state, it displays an indication of the charge status for the second device if both devices are being wirelessly charged by the same charging device.

• Detect wireless charging state of devices
• Display charge status for second device on first device's display
• Indicate when both devices are being wirelessly charged by the same device

Potential Applications: - Enhancing user experience in charging multiple devices wirelessly - Improving convenience and efficiency in managing charging status

Problems Solved: - Simplifying monitoring of multiple devices being wirelessly charged - Providing clear visual feedback on charging status

Benefits: - Streamlined charging process for users - Reduced confusion and increased convenience - Enhanced user interface for managing device charging

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced User Interface for Wireless Device Charging" This technology could be utilized in various consumer electronics, smart home devices, and public charging stations to provide a more intuitive and user-friendly charging experience. It could also be integrated into mobile apps or software for remote monitoring of charging status.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this user interface improve the wireless charging experience for users? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology on the market for wireless charging solutions?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in wireless charging technology, user interface design, and consumer preferences for charging devices. Monitor trends in multi-device charging solutions and user feedback on wireless charging experiences.

Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for charging electronic devices. At a first device with a display, detect that at least one of the first device or a second device has entered a wireless charging state. In response to detecting that at least one of the first device or the second device has entered a wireless charging state, and in accordance with a determination that the first device and the second device are being wirelessly charged by the same wireless charging device, display, on the display, an indication of charge status for the second device.
