Abstract: A computing device is associated with one or more electronic devices in a smart home environment, the smart home environment having a plurality of environment statuses. A current environment status of the plurality of environment statuses is identified for the smart home environment. Based on the current environment status of the smart home environment, one of a plurality of different feature sets is determined for a smart home application executable on the computing device for interacting with the smart home environment. The determined feature set includes selectable commands for performing device functions associated with the current environment status. The determined feature set is provided to an instance of the smart home application, thereby enabling the instance to offer user interactions consistent with the selectable commands.

Abstract: A method at an electronic device includes: displaying a camera history timeline, including: displaying a chronologically ordered sequence of event identifiers, each event identifier corresponding to a respective camera event, each respective camera event associated with one or more respective alert events; and displaying, for a respective event identifier, one or more alert event indicators, each of the alert event indicators corresponding to an alert event associated with the camera event corresponding to the respective event identifier, each of the alert event indicators displayed with a visually distinctive display characteristic associated with a corresponding alert event.

Abstract: A method, in an application executing on a client device, includes: displaying a camera event history provided by a remote server system, where the camera event history is presented as a chronologically-ordered set of event identifiers, each event identifier corresponding to a respective event for which a remote camera has captured an associated video; receiving a user selection of a displayed event identifier; and in response to receiving the user selection of the displayed event identifier: expanding the selected event identifier into a video player window, the video player window consuming a portion of the displayed camera event history; and playing, in the video player window, the captured video; and in response to terminating playback of the captured video or user de-selection of the displayed event identifier, collapsing the video player window into the selected event identifier thereby stopping the playing of the captured video.

Abstract: A home security system may infer a mode of operation based on indications it receives regarding a user's behavior. The disclosed implementations provide for a vacation mode of operation that defines a response for a security event that differs from the response that would be provided by the home security system for the same security event if it operated in another mode such as an away mode.

Abstract: A method at an electronic device includes: displaying a video feed from a camera or a frame from the video feed; and concurrently with displaying the video feed or the frame, displaying a camera history timeline, including: displaying a representation of a camera event associated with one or more alert events in the camera history timeline as a bar overlaid on the event history timeline, the event bar having a length reflecting a duration of the camera event; and displaying, proximate to the event bar, one or more alert event indicators, each of the alert event indicators corresponding to a respective alert event of the alert events associated with the camera event, where each respective alert event indicator has a respective visually distinctive display characteristic associated with the corresponding respective alert event.
