Application integration with a digital assistant
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors of a first electronic device, cause the first electronic device to:
- receive a natural-language user input, wherein the natural-language user input is indicative of an intent object of a set of intent objects;
provide the natural-language user input to a second electronic device;
receive, in response to a determination by the second electronic device that a software application associated with the intent object is not located on the first electronic device, an indication of the determination from the second electronic device;
responsive to the indication, obtain a list of applications associated with the intent object;
display, with a touch-sensitive display of the first electronic device, the list of applications associated with the intent object in a user interface;
receive a user input indicative of a selection of an application of the list of applications; and
provide the intent object of the set of intent objects to the application, wherein providing the intent object includes downloading and/or installing the application such that the first electronic device may access the software application locally, or wherein providing the intent object includes remotely accessing the application.

Abstract
Systems and processes for application integration with a digital assistant are provided. In accordance with one example, a method includes, at an electronic device having one or more processors and memory, receiving a natural-language user input; identifying, with the one or more processors, an intent object of a set of intent objects and a parameter associated with the intent, where the intent object and the parameter are derived from the natural-language user input. The method further includes identifying a software application associated with the intent object of the set of intent objects; and providing the intent object and the parameter to the software application.
