1. A wearable device, comprising:
- a user interface;
a communication interface;
a processor;
a non-transitory computer-readable medium; and
program instructions stored on the non-transitory computer-readable medium that, when executed by the processor, cause the wearable device to perform functions comprising;
receiving, from a computing device, respective configuration information corresponding to each of a plurality of network devices in a household that have been grouped together, wherein the computing device is configured to facilitate control of each of the plurality of network devices in the household via a data network, and wherein the plurality of network devices includes a first network device;
displaying, via the user interface, an indication of the first network device;
receiving, via the user interface, a first user input indicating a selection of the first network device;
in response to receiving the first user input, displaying, via the user interface, a representation of configuration information corresponding to the first network device that is indicative of a configuration of the first network device;
receiving, via the user interface, a second user input indicating a requested change to the configuration of the first network device;
in response to receiving the second user input, causing the computing device to transmit, to the first network device via the data network, a command indicating the requested change to the configuration of the first network device;
as a result of causing the computing device to transmit the command, receiving, via the communication interface from the computing device, updated configuration information corresponding to the first network device reflecting that the first network device has applied the requested change to the configuration of the first network device; and
in response to receiving the updated configuration information corresponding to the first network device, displaying, via the user interface, the updated configuration information corresponding to the first network device.

Abstract
Configuration information and selectable grouping options associated with the plurality of zones is displayed, for example, on a wearable device. Selection of a first selectable grouping option is received and in response a configuration change is transmitted. The configuration change may comprise information indicating a first zone is to join a zone group with a second zone of the plurality of zones. Updated configuration information is received indicating that a media playback system includes the zone group comprising the first zone and the second zone. The updated configuration information is displayed on the wearable device.
