Generating a user timeline for an electronic device (ED) userData is collected that includes: location data; application data; and activity data. Occurrences of predetermined types of observed events are detected based on the collected data. For each detected occurrence a respective observed event record is stored that includes information about a time and type of the observed event. Planned event records, each including information about a time and type of a respective planned event, are stored for planned events that the user is scheduled to participate in, the planned event records. Events are predicted based on the observed event records and the planned event records. Information about observed, planned and predicted events are output on a timeline user interface based on observed event records, planned event records and predicted event records stored for the predicted events, respectively.

Devices and methods for optimizing electronic device usage by visualizing access history on a display of the electronic device while the device is in sleep mode are provided. The electronic device usage alert method includes collecting electronic device access history on an electronic device, obtaining electronic device access statistics from the electronic device access history, generating a visual representation of the electronic device access statistics, and displaying the visual representation on an always on display (AOD) of the electronic device. The AOD is active only when the electronic device is asleep. Reducing usage of electronic devices or certain applications have many advantages including mitigating the user addiction of electronic devices or applications.

There is provided a method and apparatus for tracking a device. The tracked device may be a wearable device worn by a user participating in an athletic activity. An anchor device is positioned with respect to a playing area and receives signals from the tracked device. The anchor device estimates the position of the tracked device by measuring a distance and direction of the signal, and decodes the signal to obtain measurements taken by the tracked device. The position and the measurements are combined to produce tracking data for the device.

Methods, devices, and processor-readable media for scaling up graphical user interface (GUI) elements on a smart watch touchscreen based on the initial position of a stroke gesture, thereby facilitating selection, by a user, of a target GUI element. The user only needs to perform one stroke action to select the desired target. During the procedure, GUI elements of the main screen are scaled up to make target selection easier, and the GUI elements are automatically reset to their original size when the procedure is complete. To achieve this result, a 'stroke with initial position' gesture is used to select a target.
