  • Patent number: 11722443
    Abstract: Techniques for media item display configuration are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a media management component operative to retrieve a plurality of contact-associated media items associated with a plurality of contacts for a user account associated with a messaging client by a messaging system; retrieve an engagement score for each of the plurality of contacts; and order the plurality of contact-associated media items based on the engagement score for each of the plurality of contacts; and a user interface component operative to receive a mixed-contact media display interface invocation in the messaging client for the messaging system; and display the plurality of contact-associated media items in a mixed-contact media display interface according to the ordering of the plurality of contact-associated media items. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 11616742
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to methods and systems for transferring a user's messaging history from one device to another. A user's primary device, storing the official truth of the user's messaging history, establishes an end-to-end encrypted session with a new device, using a first decryption key during initial session setup. The primary device may conglomerate all or a portion of the messages comprising the user's messaging history into a data blob which is encrypted and sent to a blob store. An E2E encrypted message is sent from the primary device to the new device, via an intermediate server. The E2E encrypted message includes a second key for decrypting the data blob and a pointer to the location of data blob on the blob store. The new device retrieves the data blob from the blob store and decrypts the data blob using the second key to extract plaintext versions of the user's messages and adds the messages to the messaging application on the new device.

  • Publication number: 20220244910
    Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling voice-based interactions with electronic devices can include a data processing system maintaining a plurality of device action data sets and a respective identifier for each device action data set. The data processing system can receive, from an electronic device, an audio signal representing a voice query and an identifier. The data processing system can identify, using the identifier, a device action data set. The data processing system can identify a device action from device action data set based on content of the audio signal. The data processing system can then identify, from the device action dataset, a command associated with the device action and send the command to the for execution device for execution.
