One embodiment provides for a wearable electronic device comprising a display device, a memory device, and one or more processors to execute instructions stored in the memory device. The instructions cause the one or more processors to receive an interaction to transition an application to a front-most state on the wearable electronic device, receive a request to initiate an activity via the application in the front-most state, detect that the wearable electronic device has transitioned to a low power mode, and enable enhanced functionality for the application in the front-most state during the low power mode while the application is in the front-most stat. Enabling enhanced functionality for the application in the front-most state includes, for example, increasing an execution priority of the application while the application is in the front most state.

Application session and enhancement for a wearable electronic device

A wearable electronic device includes an application processor to execute applications on the device. A user interface for the application can be displayed on a display of the wearable device. Some applications executed on the wearable device are associated with an activity session, such as, for example, a turn-by-turn navigation session, an exercise session, a media playback session. For the duration of this session, such applications can be flagged for persistent display on the wearable device and will be displayed upon activation of the wearable device in place of the default application.

Modifying a notification on one client device can trigger the generation and transmission of a silent notification to another client device that is associated with the same user account. The silent notification can include instructions to query for and modify a similar notification, if present, on the other client device. Silent notifications that are undeliverable can be stored in offline storage and delivery can be reattempted at a later point in time.
