Abstract

A computer system for establishing a user profile in an in-vehicle communications system based upon a mobile communication device in a motor vehicle includes a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium. The computer readable medium includes computer program code for retrieving user data from the mobile communication device, the user data including data associated with a particular user of the mobile communication device, parsing a user name from the user data by identifying possessive indicia in the user data and selecting the user name associated with the possessive indicia, transmitting the parsed user name for confirmation from the user, generating the user profile including the user name, storing the user profile in the non-transitory computer medium, and storing at least one user setting associated with the motor vehicle in the user profile.
