Abstract: A messaging system, which hosts a backend service for an associated messaging client, includes a voice chat system that provides voice chat functionality that enables users to dictate their messages, while delivering the resulting message to the intended recipient as both the associated audio and text content. When a user at a sender client device begins dictating a voice message, the voice chat system starts converting the received audio stream into text and, also, starts communicating the audio content together with the generated text to the recipient client device. The recipient user can listen to the voice message and read the text generated from the audio in real time. It is also possible for the recipient user to consume the voice message in a textual form only, if the sound at the client device is undesirable.

Abstract: A method and a system include receiving indication of a user interaction within a pre-determined time period, determining that the user interaction is a contextual triggering event based on a plurality of triggering conditions, identifying a media content item associated with the contextual triggering event, generating a first user interface including a user-selectable element representing a content transmission proposal, in response to detecting a user selection of the user-selectable element, generating a second user interface, the second user interface including the media content item and a plurality of user-selectable entity icons.

Abstract: A method and a system include generating a user interface including one or more user-selectable elements, each of the one or more user-selectable elements corresponding to a connected user profile, receiving a user input associated with a media content item via the user interface, receiving indication of user selection of a first user-selectable element and a second user-selectable element from the one or more user-selectable elements, and generating a first private messaging user interface with a user corresponding to the first connected user profile and a second private messaging user interface with a user corresponding to the second connected user profile.

Abstract: A method and a system include receiving a request from a client device to view a media content item, determining at least one comment associated with a respective user profile from a set of connected profiles, generating a summary comments selectable item based at least in part on the respective user profile, causing a display of playback of the media content item and the summary comments selectable item in response to the request to view the media content item, and during the playback of the media content item at the particular time, causing a display of at least one comment.

Abstract: Method of generating selectable items providing post-viewing context actions starts with a processor receiving a media content item with first media overlay from first client device. Processor causes an active notification associated with the media content item to be displayed on a notification user interface by a second client device. Processor receives a selection of the active notification from the second client device and in response to receiving the selection of the active notification, causes the media content item to be displayed by the second client device. The processor, in response to the media content item being displayed by the second client device, causes the second client device to display the notification user interface comprising an inactive notification and a first selectable item that is associated with the first media overlay. Other embodiments are described herein.

Abstract: A personalized preview system to receive a request to access a collection of media items from a user of a user device. Responsive to receiving the request to access the collection of media items, the personalized preview system accesses user profile data associated with the user, wherein the user profile data includes an image. For example, the image may comprise a depiction of a face, wherein the face comprises a set of facial landmarks. Based on the image, the personalized preview system generates one or more media previews based on corresponding media templates and the image, and displays the one or more media previews within a presentation of the collection of media items at a client device of the user.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing lactase enzyme infused chocolate consists of specific ordered steps wherein enzyme is infused toward the end of the tempering phase to preserve lactase's active enzymatic properties and the chocolate's flavor profile while addressing lactose sensitivity.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for providing a reply interface with selectable stickers for sending in a message. The program and method provide for receiving, by a first device of a first user, a media content item provided by a second device of a second user; determining, in response to receiving the media content item, a set of stickers for displaying with the media content item; and displaying, by the first device, the media content item together with a first reply interface and a second reply interface for sending a reply message to the second device. The first reply interface includes the set of stickers, each of which is selectable by the first user for sending to the second device. The second reply interface includes an input box for sending message content to the second device.

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.

Abstract: A method and a system include receiving indication of a user interaction within a pre-determined time period, determining that the user interaction is a contextual triggering event based on a plurality of triggering conditions, identifying a media content item associated with the contextual triggering event, generating a first user interface including a user-selectable element representing a content transmission proposal, in response to detecting a user selection of the user-selectable element, generating a second user interface, the second user interface including the media content item and a plurality of user-selectable entity icons.

Abstract: A method of transmitting mobile device battery data, comprises: displaying a graphical user interface on a user's mobile device to receive battery data sharing permissions for the mobile device; receiving, via the graphical user interface, the permissions; calling a battery application program interface; receiving, from the battery application program interface, battery data of the user's mobile device; and transmitting the received battery data to another mobile device based on the received permissions.
