Automatic personal assistance between user devices
First Claim
1. A method for providing automatic personal assistance via a first user device, the method comprising:
- receiving a voice-based input communication at the first user device, the voice-based input communication sent over a communication network from a second user device; and
executing first personal assistant instructions stored in a memory of the first user device by a processor of the first user device, wherein execution of the first personal assistant instructions by the processor;
parses the received voice-based input communication automatically to identify one or more keywords in the received voice-based input communication,interprets the parsed one or more keywords as forming at least part of an information request that requests a first piece of information,retrieves the first piece of information at the first user device in response to the information request, andtransmits a first dataset automatically from the first user device to the second user device, the first dataset including at least the first piece of information.

Abstract
Methods and systems are presented for providing automatic personal assistance on a user device (e.g., mobile phone). In some embodiments, a personal assistant on a first user device may respond automatically to a received input communication from a second user device. In some embodiments, the personal assistant may perform a local search of data stored on the first user device in order to retrieve data responsive to the received input. In some embodiments, the personal assistant may perform a local load of an entry into an application on the first user device in order to perform an action responsive to the received user input. In some embodiments, the automatic response may include sending a responsive output communication to the second user device. The automatic personal assistance may be customized based on user-editable automatic personal assistance settings.

16. A system for providing automatic personal assistance via a first user device, the system comprising:
-
a communication receiver that receives a voice-based input communication at the first user device, the voice-based input communication sent over a communication network from a second user device; a processor coupled to a memory and also coupled to the communication receiver, wherein execution of first personal assistant instructions stored in the memory by the processor; parses the received voice-based input communication automatically to identify one or more keywords in the received voice-based input communication, interprets the parsed one or more keywords as forming at least part of an information request that requests a first piece of information, retrieves the first piece of information at the first user device in response to the information request, and transmits a first dataset automatically from the first user device to the second user device, the first dataset including at least the first piece of information. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
