Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide systems and methods for providing collaborative control by multiple electronic devices. Collaborative control may include providing, by a first device that is outputting content, such as audio content, an invitation to a second device to control the content that is being output by the first device. The content may be being output by the first device directly, or via a third device, such as a media output device. The media output device may be a speaker, a television, or other media output device. The second device may be provided with the ability to control the output of the first device while in proximity to the first device and/or the media output device. Control commands from the second device for controlling the output of the first device may be provided to the first device over a network.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for concurrent streaming of media content to multiple media devices. A host device may receive, from a first accessory device, a first request for first media content, the first request corresponding to a first voice input, and receive, from a second accessory device, a second request for second media content, the second request corresponding to a second voice input to the second accessory device. The host device may store a first context record including identification information for the first accessory device and the first media content, and store, while storing the first context record, a second context record including identification information for the second accessory device and the second media content. The host device may stream the first media content to the first accessory device, and stream, to second accessory device and concurrently with the streaming of the first media content, the second media content.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide systems and methods for providing nearby device invitations for electronic devices. Nearby device invitations from a first device can include encrypted invitations configured for trusted contacts, unencrypted invitations provided in response to a user request to invite all nearby devices, and/or a scannable code. The encrypted invitations and/or the unencrypted invitations can be broadcast using a short-range wireless communications protocol that limits the distance, from the broadcasting device, at which the invitations can be received. After providing the nearby device invitation in one or more of these ways, a resulting collaborative session between the first device and a second device can be managed via a server over a network.
