Abstract: This relates to intelligent automated assistants and, more specifically, to intelligent context sharing and task performance among a collection of devices with intelligent automated assistant capabilities. An example method includes, at a first electronic device participating in a context-sharing group associated with a first location: receiving a user voice input; receiving, from a context collector, an aggregate context of the context-sharing group; providing at least a portion of the aggregate context and data corresponding to the user voice input to a remote device; receiving, from the remote device, a command to perform one or more tasks and a device identifier corresponding to a second electronic device; and transmitting the command to the second electronic device based on the device identifier, wherein the command causes the second electronic device to perform the one or more tasks.

Abstract: Systems and processes for providing personalized suggestions indicating that a task may be performed using a digital assistant of an electronic device are provided. An example method includes, at an electronic device with a display, receiving context data associated with the electronic device; determining, based on the context data, a task that may be performed by a digital assistant of the electronic device in response to a natural-language expression; determining, based on the context data, whether suggestion criteria associated with the determined task are satisfied; and in accordance with a determination that the suggestion criteria are satisfied, providing a suggestion indicating that the determined task may be performed using the digital assistant of the electronic device.
