Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product aspects, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for reducing prompt-based interruptions for a user of a media device having an operating system (OS). An example aspect operates by configuring a user interface (UI) of an OS based on a first-user OS profile corresponding to a first user, wherein the first-user OS profile is associated with a unique identifier of the first user. The embodiment receives a command to launch a first application. The embodiment, in response to receiving the command, determines that a unique identifier of a most recent active profile used on the media device matches the unique identifier of the first user. The embodiment, in response to the determining, configures a UI of the first application based on the most recent active profile. The embodiment then outputs the UI of the first application.
