Wireless active registered or paired manipulation
A wireless peripheral device implemented method includes receiving a first input, providing a user perceivable indication of existing wireless pairings of the wireless peripheral device via the wireless peripheral device in response to the first input, receiving a second input, and adding a new wireless pairing in response to the second input.
1. A wireless peripheral device implemented method comprising:
receiving a first input;
providing a user perceivable indication of devices previously paired with the wireless peripheral device via the wireless peripheral device in response to the first input;
receiving a second input; and
adding a new wireless pairing in response to the second input.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the first input comprises a wireless connection request.
3. The method of claim 2 wherein the second input comprises a user input indicative of accepting the wireless pairing.
4. The method of claim 1 wherein adding the new wireless pairing comprises deleting one of the existing pairings prior to adding the new wireless pairing.
5. The method of claim 4 wherein deleting one of the existing pairings comprises one of deleting an oldest pairing, deleting a least number of times used pairing, or deleting an oldest used pairing.
6. The method of claim 4 wherein the user perceivable indication of existing wireless pairing comprises a selectable option of at least one of deleting an oldest pairing, deleting a least number of times used pairing, deleting a user selected pairing, or deleting an oldest used pairing.
7. The method of claim 4 wherein the user perceivable indication of existing wireless pairings comprises an indication of the number of existing wireless pairings.
8. The method of claim 7 wherein the user perceivable indication of existing wireless pairings includes a total number of allowable pairings.
9. The method of claim 7 wherein the user perceivable indication of existing wireless pairings identifies existing pairings by name, via voice, via a graphical user interface, or via haptic feedback.
10. The method of claim 7 wherein the user perceivable indication of existing wireless pairings comprises a blinking light, wherein the number of blinks of the light corresponds to the number of existing wireless pairings.
11. The method of claim 1 and further comprising prior to adding the new wireless pairing:
accessing contact information of a further user of the wireless peripheral device;
sending a communication to the further user; and
receiving permission from the further user to add the new wireless pairing.
12. The method of claim 11 wherein the contact information is accessed from cloud-based information storage associated with a unique identifier of the wireless peripheral device.
13. A machine-readable storage device having instructions for execution by a processor of a wireless peripheral device to cause the processor to perform operations to perform a method, the operations comprising:
receiving a first input;
providing a user perceivable indication of devices previously paired with the wireless peripheral device via the wireless peripheral device in response to the first input;
receiving a second input; and
adding a new wireless pairing in response to the second input.
14. The device of claim 13 wherein the first input comprises a wireless connection request and wherein the second input comprises a user input indicative of accepting the wireless pairing.
15. The device of claim 13 wherein adding the new wireless pairing comprises deleting one of the existing pairings prior to adding the new wireless pairing by one of deleting an oldest pairing, deleting a least number of times used pairing, or deleting an oldest used pairing.
16. The device of claim 13 wherein the operations further comprise, prior to adding the new wireless pairing:
accessing contact information of a further user of the wireless peripheral device;
sending a communication to the further user; and
receiving permission from the further user to add the new wireless pairing.
17. The device of claim 16 wherein the contact information is accessed from cloud-based information storage associated with a unique identifier of the wireless peripheral device.
18. A wireless peripheral device comprising:
a processor; and
a memory device coupled to the processor and having a program stored thereon for execution by the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving a first input;
providing a user perceivable indication of devices previously paired with the wireless peripheral device via the wireless peripheral device in response to the first input;
receiving a second input; and
adding a new wireless pairing in response to the second input.
19. The device of claim 18 wherein the first input comprises a wireless connection request and wherein the second input comprises a user input indicative of accepting the wireless pairing and wherein adding the new wireless pairing comprises deleting one of the existing pairings prior to adding the new wireless pairing by one of deleting an oldest pairing, deleting a least number of times used pairing, or deleting an oldest used pairing.
20. The device of claim 18 wherein the operations further comprise, prior to adding the new wireless pairing:
accessing contact information of a further user of the wireless peripheral device;
sending a communication to the further user; and
receiving permission from the further user to add the new wireless pairing.
