Systems and methods for maintaining a measure of session time on a networked device

A system for maintaining a measure of a session time of a networked device comprising:

• a networked device comprising a processor, a wireless radio and a display;
• a session monitor, wherein the session monitor comprises instructions that are executed on the processor that cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
• monitoring a session between the wireless radio of the networked device and a first network to determine a first session time, wherein the first session time is indicative of a first time increment the networked device is continuously connected to the first network;
• monitoring a next session between the wireless radio of the networked device and a second network to determine a second session time, wherein the second session time is indicative of a second time increment the networked device is continuously connected to the second network;
• determining a time interval between termination of the session and commencement of the next session;
• applying a rule using a sessions rule processor to determine whether the time interval is less than or equal to a pre-determined value, wherein the pre-determined value is within a range of ten seconds to three minutes;
• and
• displaying on the networked device a session time equal to the sum of the first session time and the second session time when the time interval is less than or equal to the pre-determined value.

A method for maintaining a measure of a session time of a networked device comprising:

• monitoring by a processor of the networked device a session between the networked device and a first network to determine when the session is interrupted;
• monitoring by the networked device processor the session between the networked device and the first network to determine a first session time when the session is interrupted, wherein the first session time is indicative of a first time increment the networked device was continuously connected to the first network before the interruption;
• monitoring by the networked device processor a next session between the networked device and a second network to determine a second session time when the session is interrupted, wherein the second session time is indicative of a second time increment the networked device is continuously connected to the second network after the interruption;
• determining by the networked device processor a time interval between termination of the session and commencement of the next session;
• applying by the processor a rule to determine whether the time interval is less than or equal to a pre-determined value, wherein the pre-determined value is within a range of ten seconds to three minutes;
• and
• displaying on the networked device a session time equal to the sum of the first session time and the second session time when the time interval is less than or equal to the pre-determined value.
