Abstract

Systems and methods for managing calls and alerts on a mobile electronic communications device include detecting a sleep state associated with the user, providing alerts to the user in a manner and at a time determined by the user's current sleep state. Similarly, calls are managed based on the user's sleep state so that the user is not awakened from deep sleep by routine calls but may be awakened in the event of an urgent call.
