Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for sharing content with a detected device. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The memory stores code executable by the processor to detect that an input field of a graphical display is an active graphical field for receiving input. The memory stores code executable by the processor to dynamically enable an electronic privacy filter for the graphical display. The memory stores code executable by the processor to receive input within the input field while the electronic privacy filter is enabled for the graphical display.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores code executable by the processor to:
- detect that an input field of a graphical display is an active graphical field for receiving input;
- in response to detecting that the input field of the graphical display is the active graphical field for receiving input, dynamically enable an electronic privacy filter for the graphical display, the electronic privacy filter comprising a digital screen filter for the graphical display that reduces the viewing angle of the graphical display such that information presented on the graphical display is not visible from a periphery of the graphical display;
- and
- receive input within the input field while the electronic privacy filter is enabled for the graphical display.
A method comprising:
- detecting, by a processor, that an input field of a graphical display is an active graphical field for receiving input;
- in response to detecting that the input field of the graphical display is the active graphical field for receiving input, dynamically enabling an electronic privacy filter for the graphical display, the electronic privacy filter comprising a digital screen filter for the graphical display that reduces the viewing angle of the graphical display such that information presented on the graphical display is not visible from a periphery of the graphical display;
- and
- receiving input within the input field while the electronic privacy filter is enabled for the graphical display.
A program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium that stores code executable by a processor, the executable code comprising code to perform:
- detecting that an input field of a graphical display is an active graphical field for receiving input;
- in response to detecting that the input field of the graphical display is the active graphical field for receiving input, dynamically enabling an electronic privacy filter for the graphical display, the electronic privacy filter comprising a digital screen filter for the graphical display that reduces the viewing angle of the graphical display such that information presented on the graphical display is not visible from a periphery of the graphical display;
- and
- receiving input within the input field while the electronic privacy filter is enabled for the graphical display.
