• generate for display a quick access menu
• processing circuitry configured to:
• in response to detecting the first type of touch input selection of the icon, launch the application;
• and
• in response to detecting the second type of touch input selection of the icon:
• identify a play position of a media asset previously played via the application, wherein the play position is different from a start position;
