Abstract
In some embodiments, an electronic device presents user interfaces for defining identifiers for remote locator objects. In some embodiments, an electronic device locates a remote locator object. In some embodiments, an electronic device provides information associated with a remote locator object. In some embodiments, an electronic device displays notifications associated with a trackable device. In some embodiments, a first device generates alerts.
Claims17
A method comprising:
- at an electronic device in communication with one or more wireless antenna, a display generation component and one or more input devices:
- while a remote locator object that is associated with a user other than a user of the electronic device is near the electronic device:
- in accordance with a determination that one or more first criteria are satisfied, automatically presenting, without user input, a tracking alert that indicates that the remote locator object that is not associated with the user of the electronic device satisfies the one or more first criteria, wherein the one or more first criteria include:
- a first criterion that is satisfied when the remote locator object has remained within a first threshold distance of the electronic device while the electronic device has moved more than a second threshold distance, wherein the second threshold distance is greater than the first threshold distance, and
- a second criterion that is satisfied when the remote locator object has remained within a third threshold distance of the electronic device for longer than a time threshold after the electronic device moved more than the second threshold distance.
An electronic device, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- memory;
- and
- one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
- while a remote locator object that is associated with a user other than a user of the electronic device is near the electronic device:
- in accordance with a determination that one or more first criteria are satisfied, automatically presenting, without user input, a tracking alert that indicates that the remote locator object that is not associated with the user of the electronic device satisfies the one or more first criteria, wherein the one or more first criteria include:
- a first criterion that is satisfied when the remote locator object has remained within a first threshold distance of the electronic device while the electronic device has moved more than a second threshold distance, wherein the second threshold distance is greater than the first threshold distance, and
- a second criterion that is satisfied when the remote locator object has remained within a third threshold distance of the electronic device for longer than a time threshold after the electronic device moved more than the second threshold distance.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform a method comprising:
- while a remote locator object that is associated with a user other than a user of the electronic device is near the electronic device:
- in accordance with a determination that one or more first criteria are satisfied, automatically presenting, without user input, a tracking alert that indicates that the remote locator object that is not associated with the user of the electronic device satisfies the one or more first criteria, wherein the one or more first criteria include:
- a first criterion that is satisfied when the remote locator object has remained within a first threshold distance of the electronic device while the electronic device has moved more than a second threshold distance, wherein the second threshold distance is greater than the first threshold distance, and
- a second criterion that is satisfied when the remote locator object has remained within a third threshold distance of the electronic device for longer than a time threshold after the electronic device moved more than the second threshold distance.
