Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method for managing installation of applications, where the method includes receiving, from a first computing device associated with an administrator of an organization, a pin request to attach an application, provided by an application store platform, with a version of the application, initiating, in response to the pin request, transfer of a copy of the version of the application from the application store platform to a data storage device, generating an application identifier that identifies a location of the version of the application stored in the data storage device, and transmitting installation data to a second computing device that is managed by the organization. The installation data includes the application identifier, which is used by the second computing device to install the version of the application from the data storage device.

Abstract: A method for interactive delivery of cloud-based content to a user viewing a display comprises displaying a main interface screen on the display. The main interface screen comprises a background, presenting selected streamed content; a foreground overlay, comprising a timeline-based cross information bar; and a header presenting a plurality of control icons. In one aspect, the background reaches the boundaries of the display, the cross information bar comprises a vertical bar, comprising a scrollable listing of content categories, and a horizontal bar, comprising a listing of representations of cloud-based content the user is authorized to access, such that when the user selects one of the content categories, the horizontal bar extends to the right from the selected category listing, and is populated with representations of content corresponding to the selected category.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and systems directed towards implementations of a quick menu.

Abstract: Methods and systems enhance user experience of an interactive content delivery service. A main interface screen comprises a background, playing selected streamed content; and a foreground overlay, comprising a vertical bar crossing a horizontal bar. The vertical bar lists content categories, a first category corresponding to content currently available for immediate viewing, and another category corresponding to content designated by the user as favorite content. The horizontal bar comprises thumbnail representations of content in the category selected by the user from the vertical bar. When the first category is selected, a thumbnail representation in the horizontal bar corresponding to the content currently being played includes a first symbol indicating whether the content being played is live or recorded, and a second symbol indicating whether the content is currently being recorded. When the favorite content category in the vertical bar is selected, a favorites button appears in the foreground overlay.
