Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving from a mobile device of a user configuration data of the mobile device. The configuration data identifies one or more characteristics of the mobile device. The method also includes determining a group of users of the social-networking system based at least in part on the configuration data. Each user in the group of users uses a mobile device having similar configuration data as the mobile device of the user. The method also includes providing user-assistance information associated with the group of users to the user.
Claims17
A method comprising:
- by one or more computing systems of a social-networking system, receiving from a mobile device of a user configuration data of the mobile device, the configuration data identifying one or more characteristics of the mobile device;
- by the one or more computing systems of the social-networking system, identifying a group of users of the social-networking system based at least in part on the configuration data identifying the one or more characteristics of the mobile device and analyzing a social graph, stored on the social-networking system, for users that each use a mobile device having similar configuration data as the mobile device of the user, each user in the group of users using a mobile device having similar characteristics as the one or more characteristics of the mobile device of the user;
- by the one or more computing systems of the social-networking system, determining content of user-assistance information for the user based at least in part on historical activity of the identified group of users using a respective mobile device with one or more of the characteristics of the mobile device of the user, wherein the user-assistance information comprises information explaining a use of one or more features of the social-networking system for the mobile device with one or more of the identified characteristics;
- and
- by the one or more computing systems of the social-networking system, providing at least a portion of the user-assistance information to the user.
2 more elements
One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying logic configured when executed to:
- receive from a mobile device of a user configuration data of the mobile device, the configuration data identifying one or more characteristics of the mobile device;
- identify a group of users of the social-networking system based at least in part on the configuration data identifying the one or more characteristics of the mobile device and analyzing a social graph, stored on the social-networking system, for users that each use a mobile device having similar configuration data as the mobile device of the user, each user in the group of users using a mobile device having similar characteristics as the one or more characteristics of the mobile device of the user;
- determine content of user-assistance information for the user based at least in part on historical activity of the identified group of users using a respective mobile device with one or more of the characteristics of the mobile device of the user, wherein the user-assistance information comprises information explaining a use of one or more features of the social-networking system for the mobile device with one or more of the identified characteristics;
- and
- provide at least a portion of the user-assistance information to the user.
2 more elements
A method comprising:
- by a mobile device of a user, transmitting configuration data to one or more computing systems of a social-networking system, the configuration data identifying one or more characteristics of the mobile device;
- and
- by the mobile device, receiving user-assistance information whose content is based at least in part on historical activity of a group of users using a respective mobile device with one or more of the characteristics of the mobile device of the user, wherein the user-assistance information comprises information explaining a use of one or more features of the social-networking system for the mobile device with one or more of the identified characteristics, the group of users being identified based at least in part on the configuration data identifying the one or more characteristics of the mobile device and analyzing a social graph, stored on the social-networking system, for users that each use a mobile device having similar configuration data as the mobile device of the user, each user in the group of users using a mobile device having similar characteristics as the one or more characteristics of the mobile device of the user.
