Abstract: Method of generating customized avatars based on location information includes processor receiving from first client device location information including a location of the first client device. Processor causes a status interface to be displayed on first client device that includes selectable location items corresponding to locations based on the location information. Processor receives a selection from first client device of first selectable location item and causes avatar selection interface to be displayed on first client device that includes versions of first avatar performing actions related to the first selectable location item. Processor receives selection of first selectable version of the first avatar and generates a map interface that includes a map display based on the location information and the first selectable version of the first avatar. Processor causes the map interface to be displayed on at least one of the plurality of client devices. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Method of generating customized graphics based on location information includes processor receiving location information including location of first client device. Processor causes a status interface to be displayed on the first client device that includes locations that are within a predetermined distance from the first client device. Processor receives a selection from the first client device of the first location via the status interface and stores the first location in a location database associated with the first user. Location database includes: locations previously selected by the first client device via the status interface, locations associated with media content items received from the first client device, or locations associated with the location information received from the first client device. Processor generates a country selectable item, a city selectable item, and timeline selectable items and causes passport interface to be displayed on the first client device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving a selection to add an event invite media overlay to a media content item, receiving content to be added to the event invite media overlay, the content corresponding to an event, and adding to the event invite media overlay, the content corresponding to the event to generate a custom event invite media overlay. The systems and methods further comprise causing display of the custom event invite media overlay on the media content item, receiving at least one user to which to send an invite to the event, and sending, to a second computing device associated with the at least one user, an invite to the event, the invite comprising the custom event invite media overlay and the media content item.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of data transmission comprises: displaying a preview of a message; receiving a send gesture; displaying a send to window listing potential recipients once the send gesture reaches a threshold; receiving a recipient selection; and transmitting the previewed message to the selected recipient.
