Abstract
In some implementations, a user device can personalize a media stream by converting notifications into audio speech data and presenting the audio speech data at locations within the media stream that do not interrupt the enjoyment of the media stream by the user. In some implementations, the user device can receive notifications from various communication services, applications installed on the user device, and/or other sources, determine information describing the notifications, and present the information to the user using the audio speech data. In some implementations, the user device can generate personalized notifications based on the media stream and/or media items selected by the user. The user device can generate personalized notifications based on the user's context (e.g., environment, location, activity, etc.). The personalized notifications can then be presented to the user using audio speech data at appropriate locations in the media stream.
