Abstract: Technologies are presented that optimize application management on a computing device through contextual application archival and retrieval. A method of managing applications may include: learning contextual relevancy of one or more applications installed on a computing device to a user of the device and determining whether an application is no longer contextually relevant to the user. If the application is no longer contextually relevant, the device may send a request to an application management service to obtain and/or maintain the application; create a placeholder for the application at the device; and remove the application from the device. The device may monitor contextual inputs for relevancy of the archived application. If contextual relevancy is determined, the device may send a request to the service to provide the archived application or a replacement of the archived application to the device; receive the requested application; install the requested application; and remove the placeholder.

Abstract: In some implementations, a graphical user interface of an electronic messaging system can highlight addressees of a message in a group of candidate message recipients. For example, the graphical user interface can present graphical objects corresponding to candidate message recipients. When a user composes a message, the user can provide input identifying a recipient of the message. In response to the user input identifying the recipient of the message, the graphical user interface can highlight a graphical object corresponding to the identified recipient. In some implementations, the graphical user interface can subdue (e.g., grey out) graphical objects corresponding to candidate message recipients that are not identified in the message in order to highlight the identified recipient objects. In some implementations, a message recipient can be an individual contact (e.g., person). In some implementations, a message recipient can be a message stream.
