Systems and techniques for managing digital assistant request states

An electronic device, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a memory;
• and
• one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• receiving an audio stream;
• generating, based on a first portion of the audio stream, a first request, wherein the first request has a first type of predefined state;
• in accordance with a determination that the first request is intended for a digital assistant operating on the electronic device:
• changing the first type of predefined state of the first request to a second type of predefined state different from the first type of predefined state;
• generating, based on a second portion of the audio stream that is received after the first portion of the audio stream, a second request;
• and
• in accordance with a determination, based on the second request, that a first set of criteria is satisfied:
• changing the second type of predefined state of the first request to a third type of predefined state different from the first type of predefined state and the second type of predefined state;
• and
• providing an output, generated by the digital assistant, based on the second request.

A method, comprising:

• at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory:
• receiving an audio stream;
• generating, based on a first portion of the audio stream, a first request, wherein the first request has a first type of predefined state;
• in accordance with a determination that the first request is intended for a digital assistant operating on the electronic device:
• changing the first type of predefined state of the first request to a second type of predefined state different from the first type of predefined state;
• generating, based on a second portion of the audio stream that is received after the first portion of the audio stream, a second request;
• and
• in accordance with a determination, based on the second request, that a first set of criteria is satisfied:
• changing the second type of predefined state of the first request to a third type of predefined state different from the first type of predefined state and the second type of predefined state;
• and
• providing an output, generated by the digital assistant, based on the second request.
