Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a unified messaging proxy and a method thereof. The unified messaging proxy advantageously enables a user to be communicatively coupled with the same account on a messaging platform using multiple end user devices at the same time, allowing the user to read messages on a first end user device and send messages from a second end user device. The unified messaging proxy manages the multiple end user devices and intercepts all messages to and from the multiple end user devices and the messaging platform. From its perspective, the messaging platform only sees a single client messaging application.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to classification of documents. A user is able to take a snapshot of a document using a smart device. The photo of the document is matched to one or more existing templates. The one or more existing templates are locally stored on the smart device. If the document in the photo is recognized based on pattern matching, then the photo is tagged with an existing classification. The tagged photo can be locally stored on the smart device, uploaded to and backed up in a cloud, or both. The user is able to perform a search for a particular document based on key words rather than to visually review all photos.
