Message management methods and systems

1. A communications device, comprising:

a memory configured to store instructions; and

at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to:

receive an audio recording of a user, the audio recording being associated with an outgoing message;

determine at least an attribute of the outgoing message from content of the audio recording, wherein the attribute reflects an urgency associated with the outgoing message based on prior correspondences between a caller and a callee;

assign one of a plurality of urgency levels to the outgoing message and generate an indicator representing the assigned urgency level for the outgoing message based on the attribute of the outgoing message;

generate one or more options based on the attribute of the outgoing message;

present to the user the one or more options on a graphical user interface of a display; and

cause to transmit the message to the callee.

2. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to receive from the user a selection of an option, and apply an operation based on the selection.

3. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more options are associated with an operation to be performed by the user.

4. The communications device of claim 3 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine the operation to be performed by the user from the content of the audio recording.

5. The communications device of claim 3 , wherein the operation to be performed by the user is associated with the callee of the outgoing message.

6. The communications device of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to present the one or more options when the callee does not answer to the outgoing message.

7. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein presenting the one or more options includes displaying a text message on the display.

8. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein presenting the one or more options includes displaying graphics on a graphical user interface (GUI) feature on the display.

9. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein the content of the audio recording includes a linguistic element, and the at least one processor is further configured to identify the linguistic element using voice recognition and to determine the attribute of the outgoing message from the identified linguistic element.

10. The communications device of claim 9 , wherein the attribute of the outgoing message includes context of the outgoing message, and the at least one processor is further configured to determine the context of the a outgoing message based on the identified linguistic element.

11. The communications device of claim 10 , wherein the context of the outgoing message includes at least one of a prior correspondence between the user and a person related to the outgoing message, a location of the user, a location of the person related to the outgoing message, a time associated with the outgoing message by the communications device, or an event related to the outgoing message.

12. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein the communications device is a server associated with the user.

13. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein the communications device is a terminal device associated with the user.

14. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to receive video recording of the outgoing message; and determine the attribute of the outgoing message from content of the audio recording and content of the video recording.

15. The communications device of claim 14 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine that the user is exercising or driving based on the attribute of the outgoing message; and generate an option prompting the user to initiate a voice call rather than sending an email.

16. A computer-readable medium comprising executable instructions, which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

receive an audio recording of a user, the audio recording being associated with an outgoing message;

determine at least an attribute of the outgoing message from content of the audio recording, wherein the attribute reflects an urgency associated with the outgoing message based on prior correspondences between a caller and a callee;

assign one of a plurality of urgency levels to the outgoing message and generate an indicator representing the assigned urgency level for the outgoing message based on the attribute of the outgoing message;

generate one or more options based on the attribute of the outgoing message;

present to the user the one or more options on a graphical user interface of a display; and

cause to transmit the message to the callee.

17. The computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the one or more options are associated with an operation to be performed by the user, and the instructions further cause the one or more processors to determine the at least one operation to be performed by the user from the content of the audio recording.

18. The computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the content of the audio recording includes a linguistic element, and the instructions further cause the one or more processors to identify the linguistic element using voice recognition and to determine the attribute of the outgoing message from the identified linguistic element.

19. The computer-readable medium of claim 18 , wherein the attribute of the outgoing message includes context of the outgoing message, and the at least one processor is further configured to determine a context of the a outgoing message based on the identified linguistic element.

20. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

receiving an audio recording of a user, the audio recording being associated with an outgoing message;

determining at least an attribute of the outgoing message from content of the audio recording, wherein the attribute reflects an urgency associated with the outgoing message based on prior correspondences between a caller and a callee;

assigning one of a plurality of urgency levels to the outgoing message and generate an indicator representing the assigned urgency level for the outgoing message based on the attribute of the outgoing message;

generating one or more options based on the attribute of the outgoing message;

presenting to the user the one or more options on a graphical user interface of a display; and

causing to transmit the message to the callee.

21. The communications device of claim 1 , wherein the urgency associated with the outgoing message is determined based on prior communication between a caller and a callee.
