  2. Design Question How can mobile devices be trained to recognize various contexts of our daily lives and match these contexts with appropriate applications or settings? How can they then adapt to these contexts to allow our more efficient use of them?

  3. Precedents Locale for Android: Locale dynamically manages your phone settings based on conditions, such as Location and Time. Never worry about your ringer going off in the wrong place or at the wrong time again. You can set it and forget it.

  4. Precedents AppButler: AppButler is the first "app for apps" and helps you to organize your iPhone screen in a completely new way. For this, AppButler offers you four different sets of index and register icons to organize your apps on your iPhone screens.

  5. Paper Prototyping

  6. Paper Prototyping Feedback: Third party reorganization of homescreen violates Apple terms of service Constant reorganization negates spatial memory Could be extended to manage privacy settings and other phone settings Could be extended to include other situational factors besides location Could be used as a form of self-regulation for social networking (disabling of apps in certain contexts)

  7. Current Prototype Contexts allows you to define contexts of your daily life based on your location, the time of day and your proximity to your contacts who also have Contexts installed. Within each context you can enable and disable other iPhone apps, adjust your phone's volume and other settings and even send out Twitter updates or set an IM away message. Contexts allows your phone to function more efficiently within your daily life and adapt to you and the things you do.

  8. Current Prototype User Scenario: You always forget to put your phone on silent when you are at school. Several times it has gone off in class. You just installed Contexts on your iPhone and want to set up a context for when you are at school so it will automatically set your phone to silent. Additionally, you want it to put up an IM away message that says you’re in class.
