System, Method, and Article of Manufacture for Displaying and Updating Application Information Over a Mobile Device Lock Screen Wallpaper in a Locked State
An article of manufacture comprises a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising program code executable by a processor in a mobile device. The mobile device runs applications in either foreground or background states. Upon placing the device into a screen locked state, the device activates its display and accesses a user-defined profile identifying a background application. The mobile device automatically obtains information associated with this background application, renders it over the lock screen wallpaper, and iteratively updates the displayed information without requiring device unlocking. In one embodiment, the background application is a navigation application, providing continuously updated navigational maps or directions, scaled and rendered to avoid obstructing unlocking tools or time indicators. Location-based functionality includes automatic updates of displayed information based on Global Positioning System (GPS) data. Additional embodiments support concurrently displaying information from multiple background applications, enabling direct unlocking into an application through interaction with the displayed information.
