Abstract
A system and method are provided for transferring data from a first mobile device to another device by determining a set comprising one or more items, initiating a first transfer of at least some data associated with at least one of the one or more items to the other device, detecting an interaction with the set, and enabling a second transfer of additional data associated with the set.
Claims36
A method of sharing data, the method comprising:
- identifying, by an electronic device, at least one item on the electronic device that is likely to be shared with at least one other electronic device, wherein the at least one item is identified without receiving a request for the at least one item from the at least one other electronic device;
- sending, by the electronic device, an identifier to the at least one other electronic device, the identifier enabling the at least one other electronic device to obtain the at least one item via a wireless network;
- and
- enabling, by the electronic device, transfer of the at least one item to the at least one other electronic device after an interaction with the identifier at one or more of the electronic device or the at least one other electronic device.
An electronic device comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- identify at least one item on the electronic device that is likely to be shared with at least one other electronic device, wherein the at least one item is identified without receiving a request for the at least one item from the at least one other electronic device;
- send an identifier to the at least one other electronic device, wherein the identifier enables the at least one other electronic device to obtain the at least one item via a wireless network;
- and
- enable transfer of the at least one item to the at least one other electronic device after an interaction with the identifier at one or more of the electronic device or the at least one other electronic device.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising computer executable instructions, which when executed, cause an electronic device to perform operations comprising:
- identifying at least one item on an electronic device that is likely to be shared with at least one other electronic device, wherein the at least one item is identified without receiving a request for the at least one item from the at least one other electronic device;
- sending an identifier to the at least one other electronic device, the identifier enabling the at least one other electronic device to obtain the at least one item via a wireless network;
- and
- enabling transfer of the at least one item to the at least one other electronic device after an interaction with the identifier at one or more of the electronic device or the at least one other electronic device.
