A computing device is described that accepts, a telephone call, from another device, initiated by a caller. Prior to establishing a telephone user interface that receives spoken input from the user and outputs spoken audio from the caller, the computing device executes a call screening service that outputs an audio user interface, to the other device and as part of the telephone call. The audio user interface interrogates the caller for additional information including a purpose of the telephone call, which allows the user to have more context of the telephone call before deciding whether to accept the call or hang up. The computing device outputs a graphical user interface associated with telephone call. The graphical user interface includes an indication of the additional information obtained via the audio user interface that interrogates the caller.

Synchronous communication using voice and text

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving, at a mobile computing device that is associated with a called user, a call from a calling computing device that is associated with a calling user; in response to receiving the call, determining, by the mobile computing device, that data associated with the called user indicates that the called user will not respond to the call; in response to determining that the called user will not respond to the call, inferring, by the mobile computing device, an informational need of the calling user; and automatically providing, from the mobile computing device to the calling computing device, information associated with the called user and that satisfies the inferred informational need of the calling user.
