IDENTIFYING AND DISPLAYING A SET OF HIGH PRIORITY CONTACTS ON A DISPLAY DEVICE
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for identifying and displaying a set of high priority contacts on a display device associated with an end user device, the method comprising:
- retrieving high priority contact list configuration settings that include one or more criteria for identifying a set of high priority contacts from a contact list having a plurality of contacts;
determining whether information associated with one or more of the plurality of contacts meets the one or more criteria retrieved;
identifying the one or more of the plurality of contacts that meet the one or more criteria as a set of one or more high priority contacts; and
displaying the set of one or more high priority contacts in a high priority contact list on the display device.
