Abstract: In one or more implementations, a camera user interface of a client application may be accessed from a third-party application. The camera user interface may be modified based on input from a developer of the third-party application. Modifications to the camera user interface may be made according to a framework provided by a service provider related to the client application. The modifications to the camera user interface of the client application may be directed to modifying one or more user interface elements of an initial version of the camera user interface, modifying functionality available via the initial version of the camera user interface, or adding information related to the third-party application into the initial version of the camera user interface.

Abstract: A method starts with a processor receiving a content collection from a second computing device associated with a second user. A processor detects input of text data from a text interface overlaid on top of a display of the content collection and analyzes the text data to identify a first characteristic within the text data. The processor also accessing a plurality of personalized avatars associated with a respective avatar characteristic and determines a selection of personalized avatars that match the first characteristic by comparing the first characteristic against the respective avatar characteristic associated with each of the plurality of personalize avatars. The processor then generates a personalized avatar interface which includes the selection of personalized avatars containing an avatar characteristic that matches the first characteristic, overlays the selection of personalized avatars on the display of the content collection, and communicates a selected personalized avatar to the second computing device.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and a method for generating an avatar based on a weather condition. The program and method include determining a current location of a user device; retrieving a weather condition at the current location of the user device; automatically generating a weather-based avatar for a person associated with the user device, the weather-based avatar having a visual attribute corresponding to the weather condition; and, in response to a request from a requesting device, causing display on the requesting device of the weather-based avatar.

Abstract: Method of generating private notifications between users in a communication session starts with an application server causing a communication interface to be displayed at a first client device and at a second client device, respectively. Application server receives from the first client device a request to send a private notification to the second client device and causes a private notification sending interface to be displayed in the communication interface of the first client device. Application server receives from the first client device a confirmation to send the private notification to the second client device and generating the private notification at the second client device that includes causing a first avatar that is associated with a user of the first client device to be included in the communication interface displayed at the second client device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Method of generating animation overlays starts with a processor causing a communication interface for a communication session to be displayed at client devices. The processor receives from a first client device an animation sending request and causes an animation sending interface to be displayed in the communication interface of the first client device. The animation sending interface comprises animation overlay icons. Each of the animation overlay icons comprise a first avatar associated with the first user. The processor receives from the first client device a selection of a first animation overlay icon and causes the first animation overlay corresponding to the first animation overlay icon to be displayed as an overlay on the communication interface of each of the plurality of client devices. The first animation overlay is an animation that includes the first avatar. Other embodiments are disclosed.
