Context-based device action prediction

A method comprising:

• identifying an application to prelaunch based on one or more contextual values;
• prelaunching the application to place the application into a prelaunched state;
• and
• receiving feedback relating to the prelaunching.

A system comprising:

• a context-based action module;
• and
• a computing device configured to execute the context-based action module,
• wherein the context-based action module is configured to:
• in a first instance:
• obtain a contextual value of a contextor;
• use a decision engine to decide not to perform an action on the computing device based on the contextual value;
• and
• not perform the action on the computing device;
• provide feedback related to the action to the decision engine, wherein the decision engine is updated to learn to perform the action when the contextor has the contextual value;
• in a second instance that is subsequent to the first instance:
• obtain the same contextual value of the contextor that was obtained in the first instance;
• use the updated decision engine to decide to perform the action on the computing device based on the same contextual value;
• and
• perform the action on the computing device.
