receiving a second identifier of second content accessed by the second device while a condition that includes an unexpired threshold timespan is met;
updating the service data to include the second identifier of the second content based on the second content being accessed by the second device while the threshold timespan is unexpired; and
sending, to the first device, the updated service data that includes the first identifier of the first content and the second identifier of the second content.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein:
the sending of the updated service data to the first device is responsive to a request received from the first device.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein:
the request from the first device is a login request that indicates the user profile; and
the sending of the updated service data to the first device is responsive to the login request that indicates the user profile.
10. The system of claim 7 , wherein:
based on the updated service data, the first device updates an interactive interface that includes selectable elements corresponding to sources of the first and second content.
11. The system of claim 7 , wherein:
the second device receives a channel change command and determines, based on the channel change command, that the second device accessed the second content while the condition is met; and
the receiving of the second identifier of the second content is responsive to the second device determining that the second device accessed the second content while the condition is met.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein:
the second device accesses a current channel and determines that the second device accessed the second content from the current channel while the condition is met; and
the receiving of the second identifier of the second content is responsive to the second device determining that the second device accessed the second content while the condition is met.
13. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
accessing service data that corresponds to a user profile registered with at least a first device and a second device, the service data including a first identifier of first content accessed by the first device;
receiving a second identifier of second content accessed by the second device while a condition that includes an unexpired threshold timespan is met;
updating the service data to include the second identifier of the second content based on the second content being accessed by the second device while the threshold timespan is unexpired; and
sending, to the first device, the updated service data that includes the first identifier of the first content and the second identifier of the second content.
14. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein:
the sending of the updated service data to the first device is responsive to a request received from the first device.
15. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein:
the request from the first device is a login request that indicates the user profile; and
the sending of the updated service data to the first device is responsive to the login request that indicates the user profile.
16. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein:
based on the updated service data, the first device updates an interactive interface that includes selectable elements corresponding to sources of the first and second content.
17. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein:
the second device receives a channel change command and determines, based on the channel change command, that the second device accessed the second content while the condition is met; and
the receiving of the second identifier of the second content is responsive to the second device determining that the second device accessed the second content while the condition is met.
18. A method comprising:
accessing, by one or more processors, service data that corresponds to a user profile registered with at least a first device and a second device, the service data including a first identifier of first content accessed by the first device;
receiving, by the one or more processors and in response to the second device determining based on a received channel change command that the second device accessed second content while a condition is met, a second identifier of the second content accessed by the second device while the condition is met;
updating, by the one or more processors, the service data to include the second identifier of the second content based on the second content being accessed by the second device while the condition is met; and
