5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one hardware processor is further configured to cause a user interface to be presented on a display associated with the user device, wherein the user interface indicates that the action will be performed by the target device.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the target device is selected from the plurality of candidate devices based on a suitability score associated with each of the plurality of candidate devices, wherein the suitability score indicates a device type that is suited to perform the action specified by the received user input.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the action is a call action to a phone number.
8. A method for causing actions to be performed on user devices, the method comprising:
receiving a user input indicative of an action to be performed;
determining a plurality of candidate devices that are capable of performing the action based on a device type of each of the plurality of candidate devices;
determining a priority associated with each of the plurality of candidate devices based on proximity to the user device and based on the device type indicating capability of performing the action;
selecting a target device from the plurality of candidate devices based at least in part on the determined priority of each of the plurality of candidate devices; and
causing the action to be performed by the target device.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
detecting the plurality of candidate devices within a particular proximity of the user device; and
automatically establishing connections with each of the plurality of candidate devices.
10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising transmitting a phone number to the target device selected from the plurality of candidate devices.
11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
connecting the user device to the target device in response to detecting the target device; and
causing a user interface to be presented on a display associated with the user device, wherein the user interface indicates that the user device is connected to the target device.
12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising causing a user interface to be presented on a display associated with the user device, wherein the user interface indicates that the call action will be performed by the target device.
13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the target device is selected from the plurality of candidate devices based on a suitability score associated with each of the plurality of candidate devices, wherein the suitability score indicates a device type that is suited to perform the call action specified by the received user input.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the action is a call action to a phone number.
15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for causing actions to be performed on user devices, the method comprising:
receiving a user input indicative of an action to be performed;
determining a plurality of candidate devices that are capable of performing the action based on a device type of each of the plurality of candidate devices;
determining a priority associated with each of the plurality of candidate devices based on proximity to the user device and based on the device type indicating capability of performing the action;
selecting a target device from the plurality of candidate devices based at least in part on the determined priority of each of the plurality of candidate devices; and
causing the action to be performed by the target device.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises:
detecting the plurality of candidate devices within a particular proximity of the user device; and
automatically establishing connections with each of the plurality of candidate devices.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises transmitting a phone number to the target device selected from the plurality of candidate devices.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises:
connecting the user device to the target device in response to detecting the target device; and
causing a user interface to be presented on a display associated with the user device, wherein the user interface indicates that the user device is connected to the target device.
19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises causing a user interface to be presented on a display associated with the user device, wherein the user interface indicates that the call action will be performed by the target device.
