User devices are used to access data ranging from calendar items to Internet searches. An instant unified search interface provided by a unified search helper module enables a user of the user device to search data associated with one or more applications across applications on the user device as well as data in remote locations, such as on a server via a network connection. The unified search helper module may be provided as part of the operating system module. In some implementations, entry of particular keys using a keyboard coupled to the user device may initiate the instant unified search. The keyboard may be a physical keyboard or a virtual keyboard.

Instant unified search

Technologies are described herein for making the value in an online-stored value account accessible through a prepaid debit card. A payment services provider may offer general-purpose reloadable ('GPR') cards to customers that are co-managed by the payment services provider and a traditional prepaid program manager. An integration is implemented between the payment services provider system hosting the online stored-value account and the program manager system such that the balance of the funds maintained for the online stored-value account may be used for purchases made using the GPR card.
