The present disclosure relates to devices and processes for monitoring attributes of a user's physical activity (e.g., workout) or inactivity, and to user interfaces (e.g., an activity indicator) for displaying the same. In some examples, a device determines whether physical activity corresponds to a first type based on a first set of criteria, and whether physical activity corresponds to a second type based on a second set of criteria. In some examples, the device controls an inactivity timer that measures user's inactivity. In some examples, the device displays a first visual representation of an attribute or amount of a first type of physical activity, and a second visual representation of an attribute or amount of a second type. In some examples, the device displays a third visual representation of an attribute or amount of a third type of activity. In some examples, the third visual representation corresponds to user's inactivity.

Physical activity and workout monitor

An example method involves monitoring, by a computing device, a communications feed for an indication of media and detecting, in the communications feed, the indication of the media. The method may further involve identifying at least one media item corresponding to the indication of the media and causing a playback queue of a media playback system to include one or more of the identified at least one media item.

Social playback queues

Social networking systems benefit from techniques that improve the ability of users to share online content with other users of a social networking system. In one embodiment, when a user types, pastes, or otherwise inserts a URL, or some other hyperlink, into a message or post to the social networking system, a set of data on the referenced hyperlink target is acquired and stored on a server of the social networking system. The stored data is analyzed, to automatically generate a preview for the hyperlink; and the hyperlink preview is transmitted to the client device for approval. In one embodiment, follow-up actions related to the content are performed when the content is posed, which enables users to perform social graph actions to user nodes and concept nodes related to the message or post. In one embodiment, the shared content is cached on the social networking system.

Generating preview data for online content

The present disclosure generally relates to managing user interfaces associated with physical activities. The user interface displays a scrollable list of affordances associated with physical activities. The affordances may contain physical activity and heart rate information. A user can launch a physical activity tracking function or an interface to change a workout metric using an affordance. Users can also control the music that is played in response to selecting a workout. Further, the interface can be used to compose a reply message to a received message that contains workout information. The interfaces can show a graph that includes heart data when the user's heart rate meets a heart rate alert criteria.

Displaying a scrollable list of affordances associated with physical activities

Embodiments are described herein that allow for remote creation of a playback queue. In one aspect, a method is provided that involves (1) receiving by a computing device an electronic invitation to add a media item(s) to a playback queue of a media playback system, where the electronic invitation comprises a link to access information identifying a set of media items available for playback by the media playback system, and where the computing device and the media playback system are communicatively coupled via at least a WAN, (2) causing by the computing device a graphical display to display the information identifying the set of media items available for playback, and (3) sending by the computing device selection data that indicates a selection of a particular media item from the set of media items to be added to the playback queue of the media playback system.

Remote Creation of a Playback Queue for a Future Event

The present invention relates to a system and method tracking music or other audio metadata from a number of sources in real-time on an electronic device and displaying this information as a unified music feed using a graphical and textual interface. In one embodiment the invention provides a system and method for sharing such information within a social network or other conveyance system in order to aggregate crowd sourced, location-based and real-time information by combining the location, timestamp and metadata of user's listening history on such an electronic device.

The invention provides a system and method for locating and notifying a user of the music or other audio metadata matching the user's stated preference by appending location information to such metadata

A system and method for locating and notifying a user of the music or other audio metadata

The invention provides a method and apparatus comprising at least one processor; at least one memory including computer program code, at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform identification of music data or other audio metadata played on an iOS device.

A method and system for the identification of music or other audio metadata played on an ios device

The invention relates to a system and method to cause an apparatus to perform at least the following; identifying music preferences by understanding the listening history of a user from one or more context signals associated with a user mobile device.

Apparatus for recognising and indexing context signals on a mobile device in order to generate contextual playlists and control playback

In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing a live lyrics overlay in a social messaging environment. The system can utilize advances in three-dimensional mapping technology that allow social messaging services, to offer real time video lenses or overlays to their users, and extends this three-dimensional mapping technology to support for lyrics. During creation of a video with lyrics lens overlay, the lyrics corresponding to a selected song are retrieved from a lyrics source, and are displayed within the video. For example, with the lyrics lens, a user can record an image of themselves on live video, singing along to a song clip, with the lyrics of the song displayed as if they appear to be coming from their mouths. The created live lyrics content can also be shared with other users of a social messaging environment.
