Abstract: A system and method for enabling augmented reality effects in a web browser without requiring installation of additional software is disclosed. A web server provides a website with a gallery of selectable special effects. Upon selecting an effect, the website loads a page specific to that effect which includes a live preview showing the effect applied to a video feed from the user's webcam. This allows the user to view themselves with the effect applied in real-time. The website requests access to the webcam and microphone through the browser's built-in permission system. Captured photos and videos with the effect applied can be saved locally or shared through native operating system tools. The system provides an engaging augmented reality experience accessible directly via a standard web browser, without needing to install a dedicated app.

Abstract: A system and method for suggesting relevant groups and recipients when replying to messages in a messaging application. In response to a first received message, the system identifies groups with membership comprising the sender and receiver. Interface elements representing these mutual groups are displayed as selectable suggestions. The receiving user can choose groups to include in the reply, along with other users. Suggested groups are determined based on recent interactions, mutual connections, and message content. Users can also create new groups from suggestions for ongoing messaging. By recommending shared groups and relevant recipients, the system enables efficient context-based selection when replying. The suggestions aim to streamline recipient picking through intuitive interfaces and machine learning algorithms. This improves the user experience for seamless messaging discussions with appropriate recipients.

Abstract: A response component determines the context of a received message and provides a user with a similar context to generate a response to the message. Example methods include accessing a first content item, the first content item, determining an application used to generate the first content item, causing to be displayed on a display of the computing device, an indication of the first content item and an indication of the application, and responding to a selection of the indication of the application by a user, running the application to generate a second content item.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for providing shortcuts to sharing private collections of content items. The methods and systems receive, by a device associated with a first user, a request to share a first content item with one or more recipients and in response, presenting a plurality of shortcuts, each of the plurality of shortcuts associated with different groups of recipients. The methods and systems receive input that selects a first shortcut of the plurality of shortcuts, the first shortcut being associated with a first group of recipients and, in response, present an option to add the first content item to a collection of content items and share the collection of content items with the first group of recipients.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system for filtering conversations. The system generates for display, by a messaging application, a plurality of shortcut options, each of the plurality of shortcut options comprising a respective filtering criterion. In response to receiving input that selects a given shortcut option of the plurality of shortcut options, the system retrieves the filtering criterion associated with the given shortcut option. The system searches a plurality of conversations to identify a subset of conversations that match the filtering criterion. The system generates for display together with the plurality of shortcut options, a plurality of representations of the identified subset of conversations in which one or more messages have been exchanged between a user and one or more friends of the user.

Abstract: In some examples, a method includes determining that a listing of other users is to be displayed on a user interface for a first user, accessing augmentation trigger criteria, applying the augmentation trigger criteria to user profile data, determining, based on the application of the augmentation trigger criteria to the user profile data, that a second user meet a trigger criterion of the one or more augmentation trigger criteria. The method then includes identifying at least one recommended content augmentation associated with the trigger criterion and causing display of a first selectable user interface element associated with the at least one recommended content augmentation with the listing of other users on the user interface.

Abstract: In some examples, a method to present an affordance user interface element within a user interface of an interaction application includes detecting an association of a supplemental media content item with a primary media content item presented within the user interface. The supplemental media content item is identified from among a plurality of supplemental media content items supported by the interaction application. The method may include retrieving metadata related to the supplemental media content item and presenting, within the user interface, a supplementation affordance that presents the metadata. In some examples, the supplementation affordance is user selectable via the user interface to invoke a supplementation function that enables a user to apply the supplemental media content item to a further primary media content item. The supplementation function is invoked responsive to detecting a user selection of the supplementation affordance within the user interface.

Abstract: A sender holds a first platform account with an interaction system. The sender selects a content item to be shared with a recipient. In response to determining that a recipient identifier of the recipient is not linked to a platform account, an off-platform communication is transmitted to a second user device associated with the recipient identifier. The off-platform communication is in an electronic format supported by the second user device and contains a user-selectable registration link. In response to detecting establishment of a second platform account linked to the recipient identifier, the recipient is enabled to access the content item on the second user device via a user interface provided by an interaction application. A relationship between the first platform account and the second platform account is established within the interaction system.

Abstract: Content sharing between a first user, a second user, and a third user is facilitated. A first public content collection includes a first input content item of a first user. Responsive to receiving an indication of a combination user input from a second user, a combination function is invoked to allow the second user to combine the first user input content item with a second user input content item to create a first combined user input content item. The first combined user input content item is stored in association with the first user input content item in a second public content collection. A third user sends a combination collection presentation user input related to the first user input content item. In response, a combination collection presentation function is invoked to enable the third user to navigate the second public content collection.
