Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods to improve discoverability of selectable user interface elements. In particular, the present disclosure provides computing devices that, in some implementations, intelligently identify user interface elements that are selectable (e.g., based on intelligent understanding of the user interface content) and visually modify one or more of such selectable user interface elements to indicate to the user that they are selectable. The visual modification can highlight or otherwise draw attention to the user interface element(s), thereby improving their discoverability.
