    Abstract: A method performed in a portable computing device for intelligently performing audio playback, upon connecting with an audio output system. The portable computing device detects that a connection is made with an audio output system. The portable computing device determines a first audio playback application that last played audio and when the first audio playback application last played audio. If the first audio playback application played audio within a specified amount of time in the past, then the portable computing device signals that audio playback be performed from the first audio playback application (through the connection made with the audio output system.) If the first audio playback application did not play audio within the specified amount of time in the past, then the portable computing device determines a second audio playback application that last played audio when the portable computing device was previously connected to the audio output system and signals audio playback from the second audio playback application (through the connection made with the audio output system.) Other embodiments are also described and claimed. DETECT THAT A CONNECTION IS MADE WITH AN AUDIO OUTPUT SYSTEM DETERMINE WHICH AUDIO PLAYBACK APPLICATION LAST PLAYED AUDIO IN THE PORTABLE COMPUTING DEVICE AUDIO PLAYBACK APPLICATION THAT LAST PLAYED AUDIO PLAY AUDIO YES IN THE PORTABLE COMPUTING NO DEVICE DO SO WITHIN A SPECIFIED AMOUNT OF TIME IN THE PAST (e.g., WITHIN THE LAST 8 MINUTES) BEGIN PLAYBACK FROM THE BEGIN PLAYBACK FROM THE AUDIO PLAYBACK APPLICATION AUDIO PLAYBACK APPLICATION THAT LAST PLAYED AUDIO IN THE THAT LAST PLAYED AUDIO PORTABLE COMPUTING DEVICE WHEN THE PORTABLE COMPUTING DEVICE WAS PREVIOUSLY 160 CONNECTED TO THE AUDIO OUTPUT SYSTEM PROVIDE A USER INTERFACE 110 THROUGH WHICH THE USER CAN INDICATE THAT THE PLAYBACK BE PROVIDE A USER INTERFACE CHANGED, SO THAT PLAYBACK IS THROUGH WHICH THE USER CAN FROM THE AUDIO PLAYBACK INDICATE THAT THE AUDIO APPLICATION THAT WAS PLAYING PLAYBACK BE CHANGED, SO THAT AUDIO WHEN THE PORTABLE PLAYBACK IS FROM THE AUDIO COMPUTING DEVICE WAS PLAYBACK APPLICATION THAT PREVIOUSLY CONNECTED TO THE LAST PLAYED AUDIO IN THE AUDIO OUTPUT SYSTEM PORTABLE COMPUTING DEVICE

The device is further configured to, in response to receiving the request, obtain a first user-interface template configured to be used by a plurality of third-party applications, and request, from the first application, one or more values for populating the first template. The device is also configured to receive, from the first application, while the first application is running on the device, a first set of values for populating the first template; populate the first template with the first set of values; generate a first user interface for the first application using the first template populated with the first set of values; and send information to the respective display that enables the first user interface to be displayed. va-424532 Portable Multifunction Device 100 206 210 212 Speaker J111 Optical Poimity Sensor 164 Sensor 166 210 is SIM card slot 212 is headphone jack Touch Screen 112 Contact IntensityN Sensor(s) 165 Tactile Output Generator(s) 167 Microphone Home Accelerometer(s) External Port 124 Fiaure 2
