Abstract: Embodiments described herein are generally directed towards systems and methods relating to a crowd-sourced digital assistant and system. In particular, embodiments facilitate the intuitive creation and distribution of action datasets that include computing events or tasks that can be reproduced when an associated command, stored in an action dataset, is determined received by a digital assistant device. The digital assistant device described herein can generate new action datasets, on-board new action datasets, and receive new action datasets or updates to existing action datasets. Each digital assistant device in the described system can participate in the building of action datasets, so as to crowd-source a dialect that can be understood by a digital assistant device.

Abstract: A user device may include a touchscreen, a storage device, and a processing device. The storage device stores native applications and their corresponding icon data. The icon data includes an icon, a location of the icon on a launch screen, a flag indicating whether the icon is hidden or visible, and an unlocking instruction. The processing device may display the launch screen via the touchscreen whereby the launch screen displaying one or more icons. The processing device monitors the touchscreen and receives user input at an unpopulated screen location occupied by a hidden icon. The processing devices receives a user instruction at the unpopulated screen location, verifies the user instruction with the unlocking instruction associated with the icon. When the user instruction is verified, the processing device can display the hidden icon or may launch the native application corresponding to the hidden icon.
