The embodiments set forth techniques for managing activity information associated with user applications. According to some embodiments, the techniques can include a method that is implemented by an activity application executing on a computing device, and includes the steps of (1) receiving, from an activity manager executing on the computing device, an indication that a particular functionality is being implemented by a user application executing on the computing device, (2) querying the activity manager for activity information associated with the particular functionality, (3) compositing the activity information into a user interface that is managed by the activity application, and (4) causing the user interface to be output to a display device that is communicatively coupled to the computing device.
A method for managing activity information associated with user applications, the method comprising, by an activity application executing on a computing device:
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store instructions that, when executed by at least one processor included in a computing device, cause the computing device to implement an activity application for managing activity information associated with user applications, by carrying out steps that include:
A computing device configured to manage activity information associated with user applications, the computing device comprising:
