Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, method, and user interface to facilitate augmented reality based communication between multiple users over a network. A first user of a first device is enabled to view a real-world environment that is visible to a second user via a second device by causing display, at the first device, of a live camera feed generated at the second device. The live camera feed comprises images of the real-world environment that is visible to the second user. Input data indicative of a selection by the first user of a virtual content item to apply to the real-world environment that is visible to the second user is received. The first device and second device present media objects overlaid on the real-world environment based on the input data.
