1. A device-implemented method for automatically logging into a user account, comprising:
- receiving, using a device, data from an external source that comprises data originated external to the device or from two or more sources comprising an internal source that comprises data originated internal to the device and another source, wherein the external source is not a user;
determining, using the device and without the user providing an instruction, that a new context associated with a physical computing environment of the user exists, based on at least a portion of received data being new data;
providing a user interface to select at least one recommendation that associates the determined new context with the automatically logging into the user account;
adapting the at least one recommendation based on a learned online services access pattern associated with historical access to online services by the user at the physical computing environment of the user; and
based on a response to the at least one recommendation received via the user interface, automatically logging in, from the device, to the user account without being initiated by the user; and
providing the user with an option to edit settings and the detected context to fine tune the automatically logging into the account, the providing comprising;
providing the user with an option to indicate that the automatic logging into the account should be performed and to discontinue the prompting of the user;
setting a flag that provides an indication to perform the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected; and
without providing the user with a user interface, performing the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected, based on the value of the flag; and
receiving information from the user that an indication of presence of another user physically located at a physical information environment of the user is the new context so as to perform the determining, and performing the providing the at least one recommendation based on the detection of the presence.

Abstract
Systems and methods for automatically logging into a user account are described, including receiving, using a device, data from an external source or from two or more sources comprising an internal source and another source, wherein the external source is not a user; determining, using the device, that at least a portion of received data is new data; and based on the received data, automatically logging in, from the device, to an account of the user.

1. A device-implemented method for automatically logging into a user account, comprising:
-
receiving, using a device, data from an external source that comprises data originated external to the device or from two or more sources comprising an internal source that comprises data originated internal to the device and another source, wherein the external source is not a user; determining, using the device and without the user providing an instruction, that a new context associated with a physical computing environment of the user exists, based on at least a portion of received data being new data; providing a user interface to select at least one recommendation that associates the determined new context with the automatically logging into the user account; adapting the at least one recommendation based on a learned online services access pattern associated with historical access to online services by the user at the physical computing environment of the user; and based on a response to the at least one recommendation received via the user interface, automatically logging in, from the device, to the user account without being initiated by the user; and providing the user with an option to edit settings and the detected context to fine tune the automatically logging into the account, the providing comprising; providing the user with an option to indicate that the automatic logging into the account should be performed and to discontinue the prompting of the user; setting a flag that provides an indication to perform the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected; and without providing the user with a user interface, performing the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected, based on the value of the flag; and receiving information from the user that an indication of presence of another user physically located at a physical information environment of the user is the new context so as to perform the determining, and performing the providing the at least one recommendation based on the detection of the presence. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein computer executable instructions for:
-
receiving, using a device, data from an external source that comprises data originated external to the device or from two or more sources comprising an internal source that comprises data originated internal to the device and another source, wherein the external source is not a user; determining, using the device and without the user providing an instruction, that a new context associated with a physical computing environment of the user exists, based on at least a portion of received data being new data; providing a user interface to select at least one recommendation that associates the determined new context with the automatically logging into the user account; adapting the at least one recommendation based on a learned online services access pattern associated with historical access to online services by the user at the physical computing environment of the user; and based on a response to the at least one recommendation received via the user interface, automatically logging in, from the device, to the user account without being initiated by the user; and providing the user with an option to edit settings and the detected context to fine tune the automatically logging into the account, the providing comprising; providing the user with an option to indicate that the automatic logging into the account should be performed and to discontinue the prompting of the user; setting a flag that provides an indication to perform the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected; and without providing the user with a user interface, performing the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected, based on the value of the flag; and receiving information from the user that an indication of presence of another user physically located at a physical information environment of the user is the new context so as to perform the determining, and performing the providing the at least one recommendation based on the detection of the presence. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)

15. At least one computing device comprising storage and a processor configured to perform:
-
receiving, using a device, data from an external source that comprises data originated external to the device or from two or more sources comprising an internal source that comprises data originated internal to the device and another source, wherein the external source is not a user; determining, using the device and without the user providing an instruction, that a new context associated with a physical computing environment of the user exists, based on at least a portion of received data being new data; providing a user interface to select at least one recommendation that associates the determined new context with the automatically logging into the user account; adapting the at least one recommendation based on a learned online services access pattern associated with historical access to online services by the user at the physical computing environment of the user; and based on a response to the at least one recommendation received via the user interface, automatically logging in, from the device, to the user account without being initiated by the user; and providing the user with an option to edit settings and the detected context to fine tune the automatically logging into the account, the providing comprising; providing the user with an option to indicate that the automatic logging into the account should be performed and to discontinue the prompting of the user; setting a flag that provides an indication to perform the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected; and without providing the user with a user interface, performing the automatically logging into the account when the context is detected, based on the value of the flag; and receiving information from the user that an indication of presence of another user physically located at a physical information environment of the user is the new context so as to perform the determining, and performing the providing the at least one recommendation based on the detection of the presence. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)
