Auto-Reply Mobile Communication Control for Distraction-Free Disconnect
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication systems require immediate responses to incoming calls, texts, and emails, which can be disruptive and burdensome, especially in situations where users want to be disconnected or unavailable.
Innovation Solution
An un-wired application that silences alerts and automatically responds to communication attempts with customizable replies, allowing users to manage and categorize incoming messages using bins and patterns, and provides a status overview to contacts.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If users immediately respond to all communication attempts, then communication responsiveness is improved, but user distraction and loss of focus increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically generating and sending responses to communication attempts before the user needs to manually respond. This allows users to maintain communication responsiveness without being distracted from their current activities, as the system handles the initial response generation and sending.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by automatically managing communication responses without requiring user intervention for each message. Users can set up response patterns and categories in advance, and the system then autonomously handles incoming communications by selecting and sending appropriate responses based on predefined criteria.
2Loss of time
If users disconnect from mobile devices to reduce distractions, then user focus is improved, but communication responsiveness deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system acts as an intermediary between users and communication networks. It receives communication attempts while users are disconnected, processes them according to predefined patterns and categories, and sends appropriate responses automatically. This mediator approach allows users to remain disconnected and focused while maintaining communication responsiveness through automated handling.
3Measurement precision
If users manually manage each communication attempt, then communication accuracy is improved, but device complexity and user burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments communications into different categories and patterns, allowing automated handling of routine communications while preserving user control for important messages. By dividing communications into segments based on predefined criteria, the system maintains accuracy for automated responses while reducing the burden of managing every single communication manually.
Data Source
AI summary
The invention generally relates to systems and methods that enable processor readable instruction(s) (e.g., an un-wired algorithm, an un-wired application, an un-wired services, etc.), stored in processor readable media(s), to be accessed and/or processed on mobile electronic devices (e.g., “mobile phones”) and/or networks such that, for example, when activated by user(s) and/or authorized parties, the mobile electronic device's alert (e.g., audiovisual alert, vibrator, etc.) can be deactivated. Further, when the un-wired application is activated customizable replies can automatically and/or substantially automatically be communicated in response to missed communication attempts (e.g., voice calls, video calls, texts, e-mail, etc.).
