Abstract: Methods for providing a launcher interface for task items selected based on user activity are provided. In one aspect, a method includes identifying a plurality of task items associated with a user. The plurality of task items includes a plurality of task types. The method also includes selecting a subset of the plurality of task items based on user activity information. The subset of task items includes at least no different task types. The method also includes providing a launcher user interface for display to the user on a computing device. The launcher user interface includes a plurality of elements corresponding to the selected subset of task items arranged on a single surface. The plurality of elements is selectable to launch respective applications associated with the corresponding task items. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

Abstract: A system enables universal remote media control across multiple platforms, devices, and users. A protocol allows a media controller (such as computer or mobile device) to have access to running activities (such as a television show playing on a media player). The protocol does not require installation of a specific platform application, or a specific user-login/pairing of the media controller with the media player. The system receives commands from a media controller device using a common interface, provides the commands to a remote media player, loads new media content into the media player, based on the commands, and receives state notifications from the media player. The commands and the state notifications include a namespace and a message payload represented as a two-element script array. Another user or device can control the media player using the common interface, for example provided by a browser application on the media controller device.

Abstract: In a computer system, one or more windows displayed on a virtual desktop of a computing device are determined to be inactive. The one or more windows may correspond to one or more processes running on the computing device. In response to determining that the one or more windows are inactive, state information for the one or more corresponding processes is saved and the one or more windows and corresponding processes are terminated. The state information comprises information for restarting the one or more processes and regenerating the one or more windows in a state that existed at a point in time corresponding to the termination of the windows and processes. A user interface is provided for restoring the terminated windows based on the stored state information.

Abstract: The subject technology provides implementations for entering an ambient assist mode for a digital assistant. The subject technology determines, using a set of signals, to activate an ambient assist mode for a client computing device, the client computing device including a screen and a keyboard, and the client computing device is currently executing in a mode other than the ambient assist mode. Further, the subject technology activates, at the client computing device, the ambient assist mode in which the ambient assist mode enables the client computing device to enter a low power mode and listen for an audio input signal corresponding to a hotword for activating a digital assistant, and the digital assistant is configured to respond to a command corresponding to the audio input signal using at least the screen of the client computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for presenting open windows and tabs are provided. In some aspects, multiple window indicators are presented, at a display of a computing device having multiple open windows, where each window indicator indicates content for a respective window of the multiple open windows, and where a first window from among the multiple open windows includes multiple open tabs. Multiple tab indicators are presented, at the display of the computing device, in conjunction with the window indicator of the first window and while continuing to present the multiple window indicators, where each tab indicator indicates content for a respective tab of the multiple open tabs.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for performing actions in a computing device based on sensor data from remote devices. While in a power-savings mode, the computing device monitors for activity associated with a mobile device. Based on the monitoring for activity data, the computing device receives an indication that a user of the mobile device intends to use the computing device. Based on the indication, the computing device switches from the power-saving mode to a warming mode, the warming mode comprising restoring power to the one or more components and initiating loading the operational state of the computing device before the user physically interacts with the computing device.
