BACKGROUND

Wearable accessory devices, for example smart rings, smart watches, fitness trackers, and the like, have become prevalent in modern society. For example, fitness trackers and smart rings may be able to track a wearer's heart rate, record their daily steps or the number of daily calories burned, monitor their sleep cycle, and the like. As another example, many smart watches are capable of most or all of the foregoing and may also allow users to communicate with other individuals, access online content, listen to music, and the like.

BRIEF SUMMARY

In summary, one aspect provides a method, comprising: detecting, at a wireless charger integrated into an electronic device, a connection of a wearable accessory device, wherein the wireless charger is positioned proximate to a probable user contact position; and transmitting, using the wireless charger and during a period when the connection is established, a charge to the wearable accessory device; wherein the wearable accessory device is worn by a user during the connection.

Another aspect provides an electronic device, comprising: a wireless charger integrated into the electronic device, wherein the wireless charger is positioned proximate to a probable user contact position; a processor; a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processor to: detect a connection of a wearable accessory device to the wireless charger; and transmit, using the wireless charger and during a period the connection is established, a charge to the wearable accessory device; wherein the wearable accessory device is worn by a user during the connection.

A further aspect provides a method, comprising: detecting, using at least one sensor of an electronic device, user touch input at a position on a surface of the electronic device; determining, using a processor, whether the position corresponds to a wireless charging position; and transmitting, responsive to determining that the position corresponds to the wireless charging position and using a wireless charger positioned within the electronic device proximate to the wireless charging position, a charge to one or more proximate electronic devices.

The foregoing is a summary and thus may contain simplifications, generalizations, and omissions of detail; consequently, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the summary is illustrative only and is not intended to be in any way limiting.
