Searching Based On Application Usage
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- retrieving, at one or more computing devices, event analytics data for a software application installed on a plurality of user devices, wherein the software application includes a plurality of accessible application states that can be accessed by the user devices, and wherein the event analytics data indicates an amount of time each of the accessible application states was accessed by the user devices;
mapping function names to the application states accessed by the user devices, wherein each of the function names indicates a functionality associated with the software application, and wherein each of the function names maps to one or more of the accessed application states;
for each of the function names, determining an amount of time associated with the function name based on the amount of time associated with the application states to which the function name is mapped;
determining a usage fraction value for each of the function names based on the amount of time associated with the function names, the usage fraction value for each function name indicating the amount of time associated with the function name relative to the amount of time associated with each of the function names;
receiving a search query from a querying user device;
generating search results based on the received search query and at least one of the usage fraction values; and
transmitting the search results to the querying user device.

Abstract
A system includes memory components storing computer-readable instructions and computing devices with processing units to execute the instructions. The instructions retrieve event analytics data for an application installed on user devices. The event analytics data indicates an amount of time each application state was accessed by the user devices. The instructions map function names indicating functionality to one or more of the application states. The instructions, for each of the function names, determine an amount of time associated with the corresponding application states. The instructions determine a usage fraction value for each function name based on the amount of time associated with the function name relative to the amount of time associated with the other function names. In response to a search query, the instructions generate and transmit search results based on at least one of the usage fraction values.

11. A system comprising:
-
one or more memory components configured to store computer-readable instructions; and one or more computing devices including one or more processing units that execute the computer-readable instructions, the computer-readable instructions, when executed by the one or more processing units, cause the one or more computing devices to; retrieve event analytics data for a software application installed on a plurality of user devices, wherein the software application includes a plurality of accessible application states that can be accessed by the user devices, and wherein the event analytics data indicates an amount of time each of the accessible application states was accessed by the user devices; map function names to the application states accessed by the user devices, wherein each of the function names indicates a functionality associated with the software application, and wherein each of the function names maps to one or more of the accessed application states; for each of the function names, determine an amount of time associated with the function name based on the amount of time associated with the application states to which the function name is mapped; determine a usage fraction value for each of the function names based on the amount of time associated with the function names, the usage fraction value for each function name indicating the amount of time associated with the function name relative to the amount of time associated with each of the function names; receive a search query from a querying user device; generate search results based on the received search query and at least one of the usage fraction values; and transmit the search results to the querying user device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
