Abstract: An electronic device may include touch input components and associated haptic output components. The control circuitry may provide haptic output in response to touch input on the touch input components and may send wireless signals to the external electronic device based on the touch input. The haptic output components may provide local and global haptic output. Local haptic output may be used to guide a user to the location of the electronic device or to provide a button click sensation to the user in response to touch input. Global haptic output may be used to notify the user that the electronic device is aligned towards the external electronic device and is ready to receive user input to control or communicate with the external electronic device. Control circuitry may switch a haptic output component into an inactive mode to inform the user that a touch input component is inactive.

Abstract: Certain embodiments relate generally to modifying audio playing on a first device based on detection of that audio by a second device. Other embodiments relate to transferring audio between a first device and a second device. More particularly, audio playing from a first device may be muted, stopped, or adjusted in volume based on detection of that audio by, or interaction with, a second device. Likewise, audio may be transferred from a first device to a second device based on communications between the first and second devices, proximity of the first and second devices relative to one another, proximity of a user to either the first or second device, and so on.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing power across electronic devices and a charge reservoir are discussed herein. A power management system includes a charge reservoir configured to store power, a first charger assembly, and a switch coupled to the charge reservoir and the first charger assembly. The charging monitor may be coupled to the switch. The charging monitor may be configured to query a charge state of a first electronic device, receive the charge state of the first electronic device from the first electronic device, compare the charge state of the first electronic device to a threshold value, and activate the switch when the charge state is less than the threshold value. The activation may cause power to be transferred from the charge reservoir to the first electronic device via the first charger assembly.

Abstract: An electronic device may use information about the location of nearby devices to make sharing with those devices more intuitive for a user. The electronic device may include control circuitry, wireless circuitry including first and second antennas, and motion sensor circuitry. The control circuitry may determine the location of a nearby electronic device by calculating the angle of arrival of signals that are transmitted by the nearby electronic device. To obtain a complete, unambiguous angle of arrival solution, the electronic device may be moved into different positions during angle of arrival measurement operations. At each position, the control circuitry may calculate a phase difference associated with the received signals. Motion sensor circuitry may gather motion data as the electronic device is moved into the different positions. The control circuitry may use the received antenna signals and the motion data to determine the complete angle of arrival solution.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with control circuitry, wireless transceiver circuitry, and a display. The control circuitry may determine where nearby devices are located relative to the electronic device. When a wireless communications link is established with a nearby device, the control circuitry may use the display to inform a user of the status of the wireless communications link and the location of the nearby device. The display may produce images such as a line extending in the direction of the nearby device. The line may move on the display in response to movement of the nearby device. In an environment with multiple devices that are in range for wireless communications, the display may show a notification for each nearby device. The location and size of each notification on the display may be based on the location and proximity of the nearby device.

Abstract: A method is performed at a computing system that includes a first housing with a primary display and a second housing at least partially containing a physical keyboard and a touch-sensitive secondary display. The method includes: displaying, on the primary display, a first user interface for an application executed by the computing system. The method also includes: displaying, on the touch-sensitive secondary display, a second user interface, the second user interface comprising a set of one or more affordances corresponding to the application. The method further includes: detecting a notification and, in response to detecting the notification, concurrently displaying, in the second user interface, the set of one or more affordances corresponding to the application and at least a portion of the detected notification on the touch-sensitive secondary display. In some embodiments, the detected notification is not displayed on the primary display.
