Setting, visualizing and predicting an availability status of an individual for a messaging application
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for determining and providing an availability status of an individual in a messaging application, the method comprising:
- obtaining historical usage data for the individual for the messaging application;
obtaining location data, activity data and calendar data for the individual;
calculating, by a processor, a current availability status for the individual based on the historical usage data, the location data, the activity data and the calendar data;
calculating, by the processor, a predicted future availability status for the individual based one or more of on the historical usage data, the location data, the activity data and the calendar data; and
providing the current availability status and the predicted future availability status to other users of the messaging application, wherein the predicted future availability status includes predicted future availability status scores for each hour remaining in a current day and wherein the predicted future availability status scores are numerical values that are greater than or equal to a minimum number and less than or equal to a maximum number and wherein the predicted future availability status scores consists of one decimal place.
