A digital assistant supported across devices such as smartphones, tablets, personal computers (PCs), wearable computing devices, game consoles, and the like is configured to interact with a productivity system so that various user experiences, content, or features that enhance a user's productivity can be integrated with the digital assistant and rendered as a native digital assistant user experience. The digital assistant is configured to actively participate with the user to set and achieve productivity goals for example, by determining the user's intent, maintaining awareness of context, performing tasks and actions, providing productivity status and notifications, and interacting with the user to help the user stay productive and avoid distractions.

Intelligent productivity monitoring with a digital assistant

An electronic device includes a compute system configured to concurrently execute a primary application and one or more secondary applications, one or more subsystems configured to operate in a full-power mode and one or more reduced-power modes, and a resource management module including one or more power mode timers. The resource management module sets a full-power mode timer based on an application-specific full-power requirement for the primary application executing on the electronic device, and instructs the one or more subsystems to operate in full-power mode for a duration of the full-power mode timer. Responsive to an indication of an input to the electronic device, the indication including an input-specific full-power requirement, the resource management module increases the duration of the full-power mode timer based on the duration of the application-specific full-power requirement for the primary application.
