Systems and methods for contextual caller identification
In an example implementation of the disclosed technology, a method includes, responsive to receiving, at a computing device, an indication of an incoming request for live communication from a caller having corresponding identifying information, locating, by the computing device, at least one occurrence of the identifying information in history data. The history data is associated with past activity of a user of the computing device in relation to the caller. The method also includes outputting, by the computing device, for display, image content based on the history data. The image content includes an image of web-based content associated with the identifying information.
1. A method, comprising:
responsive to receiving, at a computing device, an indication of an incoming request for live communication from a caller having corresponding identifying information:
locating, by the computing device, at least one occurrence of the identifying information in history data associated with a past web-based query of a user of the computing device in relation to the caller, and
outputting, by the computing device, for display, image content based on the history data, the image content including web-based content corresponding to results responsive to the web-based query.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the web-based content includes an image corresponding to a web page associated with the caller.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the history data associated with the past web-based query includes user interaction with the web page.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the image content includes an image corresponding to a message communicated between the user and the caller.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the web-based content includes an image corresponding to a physical location associated with the caller.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the image corresponding to the physical location associated with the caller includes a map representation of the physical location.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the image content, as output for display, contains the identifying information.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying information includes a phone number associated with the caller.
9. A system, comprising:
one or more processors;
a memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
responsive to receiving an indication of an incoming request for live communication from a caller having corresponding identifying information,
locate at least one occurrence of the identifying information in history data associated with a past web-based query of a user of the computing device in relation to the caller, and
output, for display, image content based on the history data, the image content including web-based content corresponding to the results responsive the web-based query.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the web-based content includes an image corresponding to a web page associated with the caller.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the history data associated with the past web-based query includes user interaction with the web page.
12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the image content includes an image corresponding to a message communicated between the user and the caller.
13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the web-based content includes an image corresponding to a physical location associated with the caller.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the image corresponding to the physical location associated with the unidentified caller includes a map representation of the physical location.
15. The system of claim 9 , wherein the image content, as output for display, contains the identifying information.
16. The system of claim 9 , wherein the identifying information includes a phone number associated with the caller.
17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a computing device to:
responsive to receiving an indication of an incoming call from caller having corresponding identifying information,
locate at least one occurrence of the identifying information in history data associated with a past web-based query of a user of the computing device in relation to the caller, and
output, for display, image content based on the history data, the image content including web-based content corresponding to results responsive to the web-based query.
18. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the web-based content includes an image corresponding to a web page associated with the caller.
19. The computer-readable medium of claim 18 , wherein the history data associated with the past web-based query includes user interaction with the web page.
20. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the image content includes an image corresponding to a message communicated between the user and the caller.
21. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the web-based content includes an image corresponding to a physical location associated with the caller.
22. The computer-readable medium of claim 21 , wherein the image corresponding to the physical location associated with the caller includes a map representation of the physical location.
23. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the image content, as output for display, contains the identifying information.
24. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the identifying information includes a phone number associated with the caller.
