Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for facilitating disabling an alarm in response to particular types of activity-indicative data. More specifically, activity-indicative data (e.g., measurements obtained by an electronic device) can be detected prior to a preset alarm time. Upon determining, based on the activity-indicative data, that a wakefulness condition is satisfied, the alarm can be disabled such that the alarm stimuli is not to be presented at the preset alarm time.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for a satellite device that can be associated with a user account of a minor aged (e.g., child or adolescent) user that does not have a smartphone that can be used as a companion device to the satellite device. The satellite device can be configured to be used as a primary device, without reliance upon a paired smartphone. Certain information can be synchronized with the satellite device via the association with the family account. During initial configuration, a set of cryptographic keys can be generated to associate the account of the satellite device with the set of accounts in the family. The satellite device can then access calendars, media, or other data that is shared with user accounts within a family of user accounts.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for facilitating disabling an alarm in response to particular types of activity-indicative data. More specifically, activity-indicative data (e.g., sensor data or input(s) can be detected prior to a preset alarm time. Upon determining, based on the activity-indicative data, that a wakefulness condition is satisfied (e.g., that the activity-indicative data corresponds to one or more predefined characteristics), a disablement query can be displayed that includes an option to disable the alarm. In response to detecting a selection of the option, the alarm can be disabled such that the alarm stimuli is not to be presented at the preset alarm time.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for providing enhanced configuration features includes receiving, by a computing device, indication that a wearable device has started a pairing process with a second electronic device and obtaining images corresponding to the wearable device. Moreover, the method includes analyzing, by the computing device, the images to determine one or more aspects of the wearable device and configuring the wearable device using the one or more aspects of the wearable device.

Abstract: Features are described for controlling the functionality of an electronic device, where the device operates according to a restricted mode of operation in which functions that the electronic device is otherwise capable of performing are not immediately available.

Abstract: An electronic device changes the current user interface of a respective type of user interface from a first user interface to a second user interface. An individual uses their personal device to set up and configure a device for another user.

Abstract: In some implementations, a coordinator device can prefetch images from a camera accessory in response to receiving a doorbell event notification from a doorbell accessory. For example, the coordinator device can prefetch an image in response to receiving a doorbell event notification from a doorbell accessory so that the captured image is contemporaneous with the doorbell event and to avoid making multiple subsequent requests for the same image from the camera accessory when multiple user devices request the captured image. The coordinator device can store the image received from the camera accessory and serve the image to user devices when the user devices request a snapshot image corresponding to the doorbell event.

Abstract: In some implementations, a controller device can implement communication restriction configurations on a managed device operated by a first user with a first account identifier, the configurations designed to limit a feature or functionality of the managed device. For example, the controller device can remotely cause the managed device to limit the communication capabilities of the first device. For example, the first device receives a message including the configuration. The managed device determines that the communication restriction configuration is created by a second user of the controller device. The first device identifies a second account identifier for the controller device. The first device determines that the second account identifier represents a member of a family group that includes the first account identifier.
