Systems and methods for adaptive and predictable graphical user interfaces

A system comprising:

• an identification module, stored in memory, that identifies a set of launch icons for a graphical user interface, each launch icon within the set of launch icons navigating to a corresponding activity within a set of activities when selected via the graphical user interface;
• a selection module, stored in memory, that selects, from the set of activities and based on at least one recommendation criterion, a smaller subset of recommended activities for a user that interacts with the graphical user interface;
• a displaying module, stored in memory, that displays, via the graphical user interface, a dock that comprises a subset of launch icons corresponding to the subset of recommended activities;
• a receiving module, stored in memory, that receives, via the graphical user interface, an input to view a drawer element, wherein the drawer element comprises each launch icon within the set of launch icons;
• a presentation module, stored in memory, that presents, via the graphical user interface, the drawer element in response to receiving the input;
• and
• at least one physical processor that executes the identification module, the selection module, the displaying module, the receiving module, and the presentation module.

A computer-readable medium comprising:

• one or more computer-readable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to:
• identify a set of launch icons for a graphical user interface, each launch icon within the set of launch icons navigating to a corresponding activity within a set of activities when selected via the graphical user interface;
• select, from the set of activities and based on at least one recommendation criterion, a smaller subset of recommended activities for a user that interacts with the graphical user interface;
• display, via the graphical user interface, a dock that comprises a subset of launch icons corresponding to the subset of recommended activities;
• receive, via the graphical user interface, an input to view a drawer element, wherein the drawer element comprises each launch icon within the set of launch icons;
• and
• present, via the graphical user interface, the drawer element in response to receiving the input.
