A process at an electronic digital assistant (EDA) computing device uses natural language detection of a user status change to make corresponding modification of a user interface associated with the user. The EDA monitors a private or talkgroup voice call associated with a user and detects first user speech from the user. The EDA identifies a current status of the user of on-assignment or not-on-assignment and determines that the first user speech is indicative of a first or second user status change. When it is the first user status change, the EDA causes a mobile or portable computing device associated with the user to automatically swap a foreground not-on-assignment related application with a not-previously-in-foreground on-assignment related application, and vice versa when it is the second user status change.
