Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for system and methods to crowdsource the location of wireless devices and accessories that lack a connection to a wide area network. One embodiment provides for a data processing system configured to perform operations comprising loading a user interface on an electronic device, the user interface to enable the determination of a location of a wireless accessory that is associated with the electronic device, generating a set of public keys included within a signal broadcast by the wireless accessory, the signal broadcast during a first period, sending the set of public keys to a server with a request to return data that corresponds with a public key in the set of public keys, decrypting the location data using a private key associated with the public key, and processing the location data to determine a probable location for the wireless accessory.

Abstract: Systems, methods, devices and computer-readable storage mediums are disclosed for managing location sharing requests. In various implementations, a requesting device or a server computer in communication with the requesting device, receives a location sharing request associated with a user and, in response, sends a notification to a companion device associated with the user. A location of the companion device is received from the companion device together with a list of one or more devices associated with the user that are paired with the companion device and a connection status for at least one of the one or more paired devices. The connection status indicates if there is a direct communication link established between the paired device and the companion device. A notification is sent to each disconnected paired device based on the connection status. Each disconnected device that is worn or carried by the user responds with their location.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device displays visual indications to a user when an electronic device is associated with a particular user account. In some embodiments, an electronic device displays notifications of a separation with a remote locator object (and/or device). In some embodiments, an electronic device utilizes a first or second locator process for locating a device or a remote locator object based on the device or remote locator object being located. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates finding associated components that are at one or more physical locations. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates display of location information of associated components that are at one or more physical locations.

Abstract: A device locator mode or find my device (FMD) mode can allow a lost, stolen, or misplaced mobile device to be located. The FMD mode can be enabled or disabled on a mobile device. Sometimes thieves or unauthorized parties attempt to disable the FMD mode. To prevent this, the mobile device can transmit a unique device identifier to a remote server. The remote server can link the device identifier to a cloud-based user account associated with the user of the mobile device. Before an FMD mode is disabled on the mobile device, before the content or settings can be erased, and/or before a mobile device is permitted to be activated/reactivated, a user of the mobile device can be challenged for the credentials of the cloud-based user account. If valid credentials are provided, FMD can be disabled, the content or settings can be reset, and/or the device can be activated/reactivated.

Abstract: One or more relay servers can access first data received from one or more first devices (e.g., a phone, tablet computer, vehicle tracking device, or badge reader). The one or more relay servers can aggregate the data and infer a location of a person. The one or more relay servers can transmit second signals including second data to one or more second devices (e.g., lighting systems, security systems, garage-door openers, music controllers, climate controllers, or kitchen appliances), the second data being based at least in part on the estimated location. The second-signal transmission can be pushed to the second devices or pulled by the second devices. Operations of the second devices can be controlled at least in part on the second data.

Abstract: Periodic broadcasting of a beacon signal by a wireless accessory after its initial pairing with a mobile device, a public key exchange being performed between the mobile device and the wireless accessory during their initial pairing. During the public key exchange, a shared secret is established between the mobile device and the wireless accessory. The wireless accessory periodically (e.g. every M minutes) derives a public key based on the shared secret and a current timestamp, to generate a new public key and begin broadcasting the new public key in the beacon signal. When the wireless accessory detects that it has entered a new key period (e.g. to rotate the public key every M minutes), the accessory derives a new public key using the current timestamp. If the wireless signal receives a response to the beacon signal transmitted at a first frequency, the wireless accessory enters a near-owner state and begins to transmit the beacon signal at a second, lower frequency.

Abstract: In some implementations, a first computing device can send notifications at times that the first computing device is not in an expected location. A user of a second computing device can remotely configure an expected location for the first computing device, which may be a particular location for a certain period of time. During that time, the first computing device can monitor its own location and check whether it is within the expected location. If the first computing device unexpectedly leaves or fails to enter the expected location, the first computing device may transmit a notification to the second computing device. Similarly, if the first computing device loses connectivity with other devices, a server device may notify the second computing device that the location of the first computing device cannot be determined.
