Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 16:
17. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform a method comprising:
while a remote locator object that is associated with a user other than a user of the electronic device is near the electronic device:
in accordance with a determination that first criteria are satisfied, automatically presenting, without user input, a tracking alert that indicates that the remote locator object that is not associated with the user of the electronic device satisfies the first criteria, wherein the first criteria include:
a first criterion that is satisfied when the remote locator object is within a first threshold distance of the electronic device at a first location and when the electronic device and the remote locator object have moved such that the remote locator object has remained within the first threshold distance of the electronic device while the electronic device has moved more than a second threshold distance from the first location to a second location, different from the first location, wherein the second threshold distance is greater than the first threshold distance, and
a second criterion that is satisfied when, after the electronic device has moved more than the second threshold distance from the first location to the second location, the remote locator object has remained within a third threshold distance of the electronic device for a time threshold, and is not satisfied when, after the electronic device has moved more than the second threshold distance from the first location to the second location, the remote locator object has not remained within the third threshold distance of the electronic device for the time threshold.
