Abstract

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for stream-based media management. A device may be configured to receive information streams including displayable content and to at least display the displayable content. For example, a stream manager in the device may be configured to control how the displayable content is displayed on a display in the device based on activity detected in the information streams. The activity may be defined by user preferences as trigger activities. For example, upon detecting a trigger activity in an information stream, the stream manager may cause the displayable content to be displayed or hidden, may cause the manner in which the displayable content is displayed (e.g., size, shape, order, etc.) to be altered, or may cause a visible or audible alert to be generated.
