    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for managing a local network using an electronic device, where the electronic device is connected to a router and a plurality of external devices, including a first set of one or more external devices and a second set of one or more external devices, on the local network. The user interfaces enable a user to apply the same network access policy to the first set of one or more external devices and the second set of one or more external devices or to apply different network access policies to the first set of one or more external devices and the second set of one or more external devices, respectively.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a user device can predictively route media content to a remote playback device based on playback context information obtained by the user device. The playback context can include local playback context information related to the state and/or context of the user device. The playback context can include remote playback context information related to the state and/or context of available remote playback devices. Based on the playback context information obtained by the user device, the user device can generate a predictive score for each available playback device that indicates or predicts the likelihood that the user will want to send media content to the corresponding playback device. The user device can generate and present a graphical user interface that can identify the playback devices having predictive scores over a threshold score. In some instances, the user device can automatically route selected media content to a predicted playback device.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that converts an account associated with an application to use a single sign-on service is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device receives an indication of a weak password associated with the account. The device further sends a request to verify an account credential for a user associated with the device. In addition, the device receives the verification of the account credential. The device additionally requests a single sign-on credential for the account and receives the single sign-on credential. Furthermore, the device sends a message to a server associated with a service for the application that the application is registered for the single sign-on service.
