International Classification:

G06F 3/0484
G06Q 30/06

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for creating custom user interface (“UP”) controls. A networked computing service may determine that an action performed by a user of the service is likely to be repeated, based on previous actions performed by the user and/or other users, parameters of the action including characteristics of an item associated with the action, and other criteria. The networked computing service may generate, or recommend generation of, a custom UI control that automates performance of the action. The networked computing service may automatically determine parameters of the action, and may determine alternative parameters and/or alternative actions if the action cannot be performed using the determined parameters. Custom UI controls may be associated with various computing devices and/or other electronic devices, and categories of custom UI controls may be determined and displayed.

Paul Warren Smart - Seattle WA, US

International Classification:

G06F 3/0488
G06F 3/0362
G06Q 30/06

Abstract:

An electronic device is described that displays and enables interaction with custom user interface (“UI”) elements. The electronic device may include a display, an actuatable button, and controls enabling user selection of individual custom UI elements. The device may determine a category of custom UI elements to display based on geolocation data, previous interactions with custom UI elements, user preferences, or other information, and may display a custom UI elements from the category. When the button is actuated, the electronic device causes an action associated with the displayed custom UI element to be performed. The electronic device may additionally display details regarding the action to be performed, status information regarding a previously performed action, or other related information.
