Abstract: A payment object service receives a request from a giver to associate a payment amount to an object. The request includes one or more images of the object and recipient information, which the payment object service uses to determine whether the association between these images and the information is unique. If the association is unique, the payment object service updates a database to associate the payment amount to the object and enable redemption of the payment amount. When the payment object service receives a request to redeem at least a portion of the payment amount, the payment object service may use one or more images and recipient information obtained from the request to verify that the images and information together correspond to the object. Once the redemption is complete, the payment object service may update the database to specify the current remaining payment amount.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and devices for presenting map labels. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving map data and location data; retrieving a user profile, the user profile containing a list of locations; generating a plurality of labels, wherein the plurality of labels comprise labels associated with a subset of locations within the list of locations; identifying one or more conflicting labels, wherein the one or more conflicting labels comprise one or more overlapping labels; ranking the one or more labels based on the user profile to generate a ranked label subset, wherein labels in the ranked label subset comprise non-overlapping labels; and displaying the map data and the ranked label subset.

Abstract: A customer support application provides screen sharing of the user's computing device with a remote customer support agent, thereby enabling the customer support agent to view the content displayed on the user's device. The customer support agent can provide guidance to the user by transmitting support content back to the user's computing device, where the support content is displayed as an overlay on top of the user's normal user interface content. The screen sharing and support content may be supplemented with live audio and video communications between the user and the remote customer support agent, and the multiple modes of communication may be prioritized to maintain quality in the preferred communication mode.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and devices for providing real-time inventory information. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving a catalog of products offered for sale by one or more merchants; generating in-store catalogs for each of the one or more merchants, an in-store catalog representing products sold by a store operated by a merchant and an inventory count for each product sold by the store; receiving a product request from a user; identifying one or more related products based on the product request, each of the one or more related products being associated with a store; determining inventory counts associated with each of the one or more related products based on the in-store catalogs associated with the one or more related products; generating a list of in-stock products based on the inventory counts; and transmitting the list of in-stock products to the user in response to the product request.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and devices for presenting personalized map labels. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving a request for a map; retrieving a user profile associated with the identification of the user; identifying merchant information within a predefined distance from the location of the user; identifying a correlation between the user profile and the merchant information; ranking the merchant information based on the correlation identified between the user profile and the merchant information; generating one or more labels based on the ranking of the merchant information; and transmitting map data and the one or more labels to the user.

Abstract: Techniques for managing screen input information associated with configurable gestures may be provided. For example, configuration information associated with a performable gesture and an operation may be received from an application. An association between the gesture, the operation and the application may be stored such that the operation is performed when the gesture is detected as having been performed. The operation may be global or application-specific. In some embodiments, a user is able to update a particular association. For example, the user may update a gesture associated with an operation, or the user may update an operation associated with a particular gesture.

Abstract: Techniques for managing screen input information associated with configurable gestures may be provided. For example, configuration information associated with a performable gesture may be received. In some examples, the configuration information may be received by an operating system service of a device. Additionally, in some examples, information associated with input detected by the device may be received by the operating system service. Further, in some examples, an operation of the device may be performed when the information associated with the input identifies performance of the performable gesture.
