A computing device may receive from a first application executing on at least one processor an indication of an action to be performed. The computing device may determine, based on at least the indication of the action to be performed, a plurality of deep links to a plurality of actions performable by a plurality of applications. The computing device may select a subset of deep links from the plurality of deep links. The computing device may output for display a graphical user interface including an indication of each deep link from the subset of deep links. The computing device may receive an indication of a user input, the user input corresponding to a selection of one of the deep links from the subset of deep links. A second application executing on the at least one processor may perform an action linked to by the selected deep link.

Dynamic deep links to targets

Techniques are described for sharing service management on a computing system. The computing system includes a display device and one or more processors. The processors are configured to determine, based on a context associated with an object, a plurality of weighted probabilities including a respective weighted probability for each sharing service from a plurality of sharing services, wherein the context includes at least one of a characteristic of the object and a respective characteristic of at least a portion of sharing services from the plurality of sharing services, select, based on the respective weighted probabilities, a subset of sharing services, output, for display at the display device, an indication of each sharing service from the subset of sharing services, receive an indication of a user input corresponding to a selection of one of the subset of sharing services, and transmit, using the selected sharing service, an indication of the object.

Sharing service management

In one example, a method includes receiving an indication of an input gesture detected at a presence-sensitive input device, where the input gesture includes one or more input points and each input point is detected at a respective location of the presence-sensitive input device. The method may also include determining a focal point of the input gesture, and determining a radius length. The method may also include determining a shape centered at the focal point and having a size determined based on the radius length. The method may also include responding to a change in a geometric property of the shape by scaling information included in a graphical user interface, where the scaling of the information being centered at the focal point.

Weighted N-finger scaling and scrolling

A computing device can receive an indication of a change in the proximity state of a first structure of an attachment mechanism and a second structure of the attachment mechanism. Responsive to receiving the indication, the computing device can be operable to change, based at least in part on the indication, a current access mode provided by the computing device. In some examples, both the computing device and the attachment mechanism may be part of a wearable computing device. In other examples, the computing device may be or be part of a physically separate device from the attachment mechanism.

Controlling a current access mode of a computing device based on a state of an attachment mechanism

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving first user input, the first user input indicating a first intent; searching applications installed on the computing device based on the first intent; determining that none of the installed applications are capable of fulfilling the first intent; transmitting a request to a server system, the request requesting applications capable of fulfilling the first intent; receiving a list of one or more applications, each of the one or more applications being capable of fulfilling the first intent; downloading and installing a first application of the one or more applications; launching the first application; and fulfilling the first intent using the first application.
