Abstract
Disclosed are techniques for a method for generating search results that indicate to a user whether the applications listed in the search results have been installed on one or more of their user devices. A search engine obtains one or more user device profiles and combines them to generate a master device profile. The search engine is further configured to provide search results that indicate the installation history of the applications appearing in the search results based on the master device profile. The master device profile contains the installation history of applications across the user devices associated to a particular user. A user device can be configured to generate and maintain a master device profile and can tag search results received from the search engine accordingly.
