    摘要: Examples described herein include systems and methods for providing user-specific applications on a shared user device. The user device can receive a first instance of an application having a Package ID that includes an identification of a first user. When the first user is logged in, the user device can display an icon associated with the first instance of the application, based on the Package ID including an identification of the first user. When the first user is not logged in, the user device can hide the first instance of the application. When a second user is logged in, the device can display a second instance of the application based on the Package ID of the second instance including an identification of the second user. The user device can also display the same instance of a shared application to both the first and second user.

    摘要: Disclosed are various examples for performing actions using augmented reality. In some examples, a user interface that includes a field of view is generated. The field of view is currently captured using a camera of a client device. Object data in the field of view is detected. Position data is determined. The position data includes a location of the client device and an orientation vector that indicates a direction the camera of the client device. A request for actions is transmitted to a management service. The request includes the object data and the position data. An action and an identity of a managed object are received from the management service. The user interface is updated to include an identity of a managed object, and a user interface element that when selected causes an action to be performed.

    摘要: A first user device can receive a communication certificate associated with a user of the first user device. The communication certificate can allow the first user device to exchange certain information with a second user device that also possesses the communication certificate. The first user device can receive a notification. The first user device can also determine that a second user device associated with the user did not receive the notification. The first user device can initiate a direct connection with the second user device. The first use device can verify that the second device possesses the communication certificate. After verification, the first user device can send the notification to the second user device.

    摘要: Examples described herein include systems and methods for reducing power consumption among multiple user devices that are communicatively coupled to a management server. The management server can receive an indication that a first user device (a laptop computer, for example) is in an active state and that a first application (an email application or a web browser, for example), is executing at the laptop computer. The management server determines that a second user device (a smartphone, for example) is associated with the same user and further determines that a second application is installed on the smartphone. The management server can determine that the smartphone is in an inactive state or that the second application is currently not executing on the smartphone. The management server sends an instruction to the smartphone to turn off at least one functionality so as to reduce power consumption.

    摘要: Scheduling optimizations for services are described. In one example, a priority category, such as a high, low, or other priority category, can be determined for a service of an application executing on a computing device. If the application is running as a background application on the computing device, an exception to the start of the service can be returned by the operating system of the device, due to background execution limits on the device. In that case, the start of the service can be managed by a service manager of the application based on the priority category for the service. If the priority category for the service is high, the background application can call a foreground service. The call for the foreground service can bring the application to the foreground, and the service manager can again call for the start of the service after the foreground service is running.
