Systems and methods provide for a server computer to receive a request from a first device to share a plurality of media content items with a second device, the request including a unique identifier for each of the plurality of media content items. The server computer determines a subset of the plurality of media content items to be processed by the first device, generates instructions for processing the subset of the plurality of media content items by the first device, and sends the instructions to the first device. The server computer receives the processed media content items for the subset of the plurality of media content items that were processed by the first device, generates a message enabling access to processed media content items for the plurality of media content items, and sends the generated message to the second device.
