Abstract: Techniques include transmitting a request that indicates one or more native applications that are installed on a user device to a search system. The techniques further include receiving a first set of (e.g., predicted) search results from the search system in response to transmitting the request. Each search result includes an application access mechanism that references one of the native applications and indicates operations for the application to perform (e.g., specifies an application state of the application). The techniques also include receiving a search query from a user, identifying one or more search results of the first set using the query, transmitting the query to the search system, receiving a second set of (e.g., supplemental) search results from the search system in response to transmitting the query, and displaying the identified search results of the first set and the search results of the second set to the user.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for facilitating re-creation of an application collection of a source computing device at a destination computing device. The techniques include receiving a source application identifier indicative of a source application edition, the edition of the application being programmed for a source operating system. The techniques also include receiving an indicator of a destination operating system. The techniques further include determining a source canonical application corresponding to the source application edition based on the source application identifier, the source canonical application being a representative of one or more application editions including the source application edition.
