Automatically collecting data from a computing device after launching an application by the computing device
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A non-transitory storage medium storing computer-readable instructions, which when executed, cause a first computing device to:
- automatically launch a new application by the first computing device, wherein the launch of the new application is a first execution of the new application on the first computing device;
after the launch, execute the new application to automatically obtain data from the first computing device, wherein the data comprises an identifier of a user;
send the data to a second computing device configured to provide a service associated with the first computing device, wherein the user accesses an account associated with the service in order to receive the service on the first computing device, wherein the second computing device is further configured to initiate the service in response to receiving the identifier, wherein the account is based on the identifier, and wherein the account resides entirely on the first computing device; and
after the user accesses the account, receive parameters for configuration of the service, and send the parameters to the second computing device.

Abstract
A software application is automatically launched on a first computing device. The launch of the application is a first execution of the application by the first computing device. In response to this launching, the application executes to automatically obtain data from the first computing device. The data is sent to a second computing device that is configured to provide a service to the first computing device (e.g., based on the data).

9. A system, comprising:
-
at least one processor; and memory storing instructions configured to instruct the at least one processor to; automatically launch a new application on a first computing device, wherein the launch of the new application is a first execution of the new application on the first computing device; after the launch, execute the new application to obtain data from the first computing device, wherein the data comprises an identifier of a user; send the data to a second computing device configured to provide a service to the first computing device, wherein the second computing device is further configured to initiate the service in response to receiving the identifier, wherein the user accesses an account associated with the service in order to receive the service on the first computing device, wherein the account is based on the identifier, and wherein the account resides entirely on the first computing device; and after the user accesses the account, receive parameters for configuration of the service, and send the parameters to the second computing device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A method, comprising:
-
launching an application on a first computing device, wherein the launch of the application is a first execution of the application by the first computing device; in response to the launching, executing the application to automatically obtain data from the first computing device, wherein the data comprises an identifier of a user; sending the data to a second computing device configured to provide a service to the first computing device, wherein the second computing device is further configured to initiate the service in response to receiving the identifier, wherein the user accesses an account associated with the service in order to receive the service on the first computing device, wherein the account is based on the identifier, and wherein the account resides entirely on the first computing device; and after the user accesses the account, receiving parameters for configuration of the service, and sending the parameters to the second computing device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
