Abstract
A system and method for providing an indication regarding the operation of an electronic device. When a program operates in the background of the electronic device, the activity of the program is electronically monitored by the system. The system determines whether the activity of the program exceeds a threshold for at least one operating parameter of the electronic device. If the activity of the program exceeds the predetermined threshold, an indication is provided to a user regarding the activity of the program.
Claims31
