Abstract: In some embodiments a second electronic device with which an output device is associated facilitates associating the output device with a first electronic device. In some embodiments, a second electronic device that is associated with an additional user facilitates associating the additional user with a first electronic device.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to managing user profiles. An example method includes, at a computer system in communication with a display generation component and an input device: receiving, via the input device, a user input including a request to access a first restricted media item; and in response to the user input: in accordance with a determination the user input is a voice input and the voice input corresponds to a user profile authorized to access the first restricted media item using voice inputs, initiating playback of the first restricted media item; and in accordance with a determination the user input is a voice input and the voice input does not correspond to a user profile authorized to access the first restricted media item using voice inputs: forgoing initiating playback of the first restricted media item; and causing display, at the display generation component, of a validation user interface.

Abstract: In some embodiments a second electronic device with which an output device is associated facilitates associating the output device with a first electronic device. In some embodiments, a second electronic device that is associated with an additional user facilitates associating the additional user with a first electronic device.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a user interface displayed by a first electronic device is navigated with a first mode of navigation when touch input at a touch-sensitive surface of a second electronic device satisfies one or more criteria, and is navigated with a second mode of navigation when touch input at the touch-sensitive surface does not satisfy the one or more criteria.

Abstract: This document describes methodologies for an electronic programming guide with expanding cells for video preview. These techniques and apparatuses enable improved navigation for video and channel previewing based on gestures performed on a mobile device acting as a remote control to a remote display device. These techniques and apparatuses allow video preview of current program content over many channels with a simple and easy method to preview different channels. Further, these techniques and apparatuses can also be applied to view information regarding upcoming programs scheduled at a future time.

Abstract: This document describes methodologies for on-demand video surfing. These techniques and apparatuses improve navigation for VOD content by using a search query to search the VOD content for videos having a specified type of scene (e.g., hook). Further, the user can surf through the videos, similar to channel surfing television channels via a video-rendering device. However, the video-rendering device navigates directly to a scene of the specified type in each video based on the search query. This allows the user to surf through purposefully chosen moments in the videos. Then, any of the selected videos can automatically continue playing through to the end of the video or, based on a user input, restart at the beginning of the video.
