Abstract
A communication device comprising: one or more processors and one or more memories supporting communication, the device comprising a plurality of modes, including at least a normal mode and at least one focused mode, wherein the normal mode is distinct from the focused mode, and wherein, when the device is in the focused mode one or more features of the device are at least partially disabled, and wherein the one or more features of the device that are at least partially disabled in the focused mode include one or more features relating to communication supported by the device, wherein the device is configured to: support a user interface (UI) for setting one or more focused time periods, and wherein the device is further configured to switch to the at least one focused mode during the focused time periods.

13. A device comprising:
-
at least one processor and one or more memories; and
at least one computer-readable storage medium storing instructions executable by the at least one processor to implement;a planner application defining one or more events, each event having (i) a corresponding start time and an end time, and (ii) a corresponding mode, wherein said corresponding mode is selected from a plurality of modes, including at least a first mode and a second mode distinct from said first mode, when said device is in said second mode, one or more features of said device are at least partially disabled, and wherein, when it is determined that a current time is during a particular event of said one or more events, said particular event having a corresponding particular mode of said plurality of modes, operating said device in said particular mode. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

35. A computer implemented method, comprising, on one or more devices associated with a user, each device supporting communication, each device comprising a plurality of modes, including at least a normal mode and at least one focused mode:
-
(A) obtaining information about one or more events, each event having a corresponding time period and a corresponding device status, wherein said device status is selected from said plurality of modes; (B) determining whether a current time corresponds to a time during an event having a focused device status; and (C) based on said determining in (B), when the current time is during an event having a focused device status, operating at least some of said one or more devices in a focused mode, wherein said normal mode is distinct from said focused mode, and wherein, when a particular device of said one or more devices is in said focused mode one or more features of said particular device are at least partially disabled. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39)
