Techniques and technologies for cross-device task execution are described. In at least some embodiments, a system includes a processing component configured to: receive device information associated with a networked group of devices; receive user preference information indicating one or more user preferences for performing one or more tasks; receive an indication of a task to be performed; select a designated device of the networked group of devices associated with the user to perform the task based at least partially on the user preference information; and transmit the task to be performed to the designated device.
