Apple is researching multiple methods to simplify how users choose what they want to watch. At present, the company has put all the content into the Apple TV application, but the related process is still too cumbersome. The good news is that in the future Apple Services will be able to remember which App users want to launch on which device, choose the program to watch, and stream related content and configuration information to other devices. The three new patents recently exposed reveal that Apple wants to go further.

In US Patent No. 20200221180, Apple mentioned Predictive Media Routing. For example, users can open the App, select content, and click the play button to play on the local device. Or click another button and select the list of available devices to stream the content to other places. In US Patent 20200221366, Apple mentioned Predictive Routing Based on Microlocation. Apple hopes to design an application that supports audio and video media playback, remote control of TV/speakers, and management of other user connections. In the third 20200221155 US patent, Apple continued to focus on the experience of the entire process. That is, how many times the user must press the button to start watching the content they want to enjoy.

When storing a large amount of content on a mobile device, it will make the expected application or function call quite time-consuming and laborious. If you can use machine learning technology to predict user behavior, you can summon Siri to easily implement related operations.

The new patent attempts to skip the key operation completely, but only through voice. Only for Siri, it also needs to be more intelligent in predicting which device the user wants to watch on the screen.
