Benefits of technology

[0010]One of the advantages of the present invention is that a lifestyle activity management environment residing on a wireless can be dynamically updated when a user purchases lifestyle activity components. For example, a merchant store includes or a third party includes an updating module that either notifies a user's wireless device or wireless carrier of an active lifestyle component purchase. The notification also includes active lifestyle component that is used to update the lifestyle activity management environment on the wireless device. Therefore, the lifestyle activity management environment is dynamically updated and a user does not need to manually enter lifestyle activity component information.

Problems solved by technology

However, current wireless communication devices only offer a calendar feature for organizing time and dates.
However, current RFID systems are not context based and constantly monitor for items.
This not efficient for a wireless communication device where battery life is a valued resource.
However, current wireless communication devices are not capable of managing and / or monitoring such devices based on an activity context.
This fails to provide a seamless environment for the user.
Currently, a system does not exist to automatically update a wireless device when a user purchases lifestyle activity components.

Abstract

A method and wireless communication device are provided for managing information associated with purchases of active lifestyle products. The method includes receiving a notification (704) indicating a purchase transaction associated with at least one radio frequency ID enabled item. The notification is analyzed (706) and in response to the analyzing a user identifier corresponding to a user related to the purchase transaction is determined (708). A radio frequency ID associated with the at least one radio frequency ID enabled item is also determined (710). A wireless device (104) associated with the user is identified based on the user identifier (712). An information set associated with the at least one radio frequency ID enabled item is transmitted (714) to the wireless device (104). The information set includes at least the radio frequency ID associated with the at least one radio frequency ID enabled item.
