Embodiment Construction

[0032] Various aspects are now described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of one or more aspects. It may be evident, however, that the described aspects may be practiced without these specific details.

[0033] The described aspects relate to methods and apparatus for providing automatic information entry in a wireless device based on a current location of the wireless device. The described aspects may obtain landmark information for one or more landmarks near the wireless device's current location, such as from a map database or other data repository, and may present a list of the one or more landmarks to a user of the wireless device. The user can select one of the landmarks and the wireless device can automatically enter the obtained landmark information into a message (eg, text message, email message, text message, or other text bo...

Abstract

Methods and apparatus for automated information entry in a wireless device may include receiving an input of a sequence of characters. In addition, the methods and apparatus may include identifying a location-related context based on at least a portion of the sequence of characters and obtaining location information of the wireless device in response to identifying the location-related context. The methods and apparatus may also include obtaining a set of one or more landmark information corresponding to the location information of the wireless device and obtaining directional information relative to selected landmark information. The method and apparatus may also include adding the directional information with the selected landmark information to the sequence of characters.

Description

Background technique [0001] With the proliferation of wireless devices with increased power, memory, and other features, more and more wireless devices are used to send messages, such as text messages, email messages, SMS messages, etc., to other individuals. When sending messages to other individuals, a user of a wireless device may want to include location information in the message so that other individuals can locate the user. Additionally, if the message the user is composing involves the user's current location, the user may want to include that location to support the context of the message. However, if the user is in a new location, or the user's precise location is not known, the user may not be able to include location information in the message. Additionally, current methods for including location information in messages may not provide a user's precise location. [0002] Therefore, it is desirable to include location information into messages being composed on a ...
