Abstract:
An electronic device suggests contacts and calendar events for users based on their messages. The device can analyze a user's messages for contact and event information and automatically generate or update suggested contacts and calendar events for the user based on this information. The suggested contacts and calendar events can be searchable as if they were manually entered by the user, and the user can choose to add or ignore the suggested contacts and calendar events.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for generating and providing intelligent time to leave reminders on an electronic device are disclosed herein. In one aspect, the method includes: automatically, without human intervention, identifying a calendar entry including a first identifier (e.g., text in the title of a calendar entry that relates to a location, such as “go to dental checkup”), the first identifier corresponding to a geographic location that is unknown. The method further includes: automatically, without human intervention, retrieving a previously-visited address (e.g., a street address or GPS coordinates for the street address) associated with the first identifier. The method also includes: automatically, without human intervention, determining a departure time for the calendar entry based on the previously-visited address (e.g., based on a route from the current location of the device to the previously-visited address). The method additionally includes: automatically, without human intervention, associating the determined departure time with the calendar entry.

Abstract:
Systems and processes for detecting an event within natural language are provided. In one example of a process, unstructured natural language information may be received from at least one user. The presence of event information in the unstructured natural language information may be determined. In accordance with a determination that event information is present within the unstructured natural language information, a pseudo-event entry associated with that event information may be generated.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for proactively identifying and surfacing relevant content on an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display are disclosed herein. In one aspect, the method includes executing, on the electronic device, an application in response to an instruction from a user of the electronic device. While executing the application, the method further includes collecting usage data. The usage data at least includes one or more actions performed by the user within the application. The method also includes: automatically, without human intervention, obtaining at least one trigger condition based on the collected usage data and associating the at least one trigger condition with a particular action of the one or more actions performed by the user within the application. Upon determining that the at least one trigger condition has been satisfied, the method includes providing an indication to the user that the particular action associated with the trigger condition is available.
