Abstract: The various implementations described herein include methods and devices for generating personalized playlists. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining information about recent media items presented to a user, the information including data about a respective time of day and day of week each media item was presented to the user. The method further includes grouping the recent media items into clusters based on time of day and day of week; and generating a recommendation vector using a weighted average of the clusters. The method also includes generating a playlist for the user by identifying a plurality of media items using the recommendation vector; and presenting the playlist to the user.

Abstract: A method for personalizing media content for a user is provided. The method includes, at an electronic device, streaming a first media item from a first set of media items, the first set of media items compiled using a first recommendation hypothesis. The method further includes, while streaming the first media item, in response to a first user request, selecting, without user intervention, a second set of media items, distinct from the first set of media items, including determining a presentation order of a plurality of sets of media items using a heuristic applied to the plurality of sets of media items. The second set of media items is compiled using a second recommendation hypothesis, wherein the second recommendation hypothesis is distinct from the first recommendation hypothesis. The method includes streaming a second media item from the second set of media items.

Abstract: An electronic device provides, to a user, a user-curated playlist, the user-curated playlist including an ordered set of media items that were added by the user. While providing a first media item in the ordered set of media items, the electronic device receives a first user input selecting an option to include recommended media items in the user-curated playlist. In response to the first user input, the electronic device updates the user-curated playlist to include a first recommended media item, the first recommended media item selected without user intervention based at least in part on attributes of the user-curated playlist. The first recommended media item is positioned in the user-curated playlist in between media items that were added to the ordered set of media items by the user.
