User-input scheduling of synchronization operation on a mobile device based on user activity
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A device, comprising:
- at least one processor; and
a memory coupled to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, perform a method, comprising;
determining a synchronization schedule associated with the device;
detecting execution of an action, wherein the execution of the action initiates a synchronization operation that is different from a scheduled synchronization operation specified by the synchronization schedule; and
performing the synchronization operation.

Abstract
Data is synchronized between a mobile device and a computing device over a wireless link. Synchronization operations are scheduled according to a synchronization schedule that is based on a current time of day. In one embodiment, the day can be divided into different time periods by the user. The user can also specify the frequency with which synchronization operations are to be performed during each specified period.

10. A method, comprising:
-
determining, using a processor, a synchronization schedule associated with a computing device; receiving, on a user interface of the computing device, input that indicates an action is to be performed by the computing device, wherein the action initiates a synchronization operation that is different from a scheduled synchronization operation specified by the synchronization schedule; and performing, by the processor, the synchronization operation when the action is performed. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
