Abstract: Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant are provided. In one example process, a first instance of a digital assistant operating on a first electronic device receives a natural-language speech input indicative of a user request. The first electronic device obtains a set of data corresponding to a second instance of the digital assistant on a second electronic device, and updates one or more settings of the first instance of the digital assistant based on the received set of data. The first instance of the digital assistant performs one or more tasks based on the updated one or more settings and provides an output indicative of whether the one or more tasks are performed.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a data processing system on a communal electronic device, the data processing system comprising a memory device to store instructions and one or more processors to execute the instructions stored on the memory device. The instructions cause the one or more processors to provide a virtual assistant to receive commands at the communal electronic device, where the virtual assistant, via the one or more processors, is configured to receive a command at the communal electronic device and determine whether the command is to access personal data of a user associated with the communal electronic device. Personal data of the user includes data that is specific to the user. In response to a determination that the command is to access personal data of the user, the virtual assistant can send a request to a personal electronic device of the user to process at least a portion of the command.
