Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for providing a room preview within a virtual conferencing system. The program and method provide for virtual conferencing between plural participants within a first room of plural rooms, the plural rooms being included within a virtual space for virtual conferencing; and for each of the plural participants, provide a first audio channel associated with audio output of the first room, provide display of a room preview element within the first room, the room preview element corresponding to a live preview of a second room of the plural rooms, and provide a second audio channel associated with audio output of the second room.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for assigning participants to rooms within a virtual conferencing system. The program and method provide for accessing, in association with a virtual space comprising plural rooms for virtual conferencing between plural participants, room occupancy preferences for occupying the plural rooms; accessing metadata associated with one or more participants of the plural participants; assigning, based on the room occupancy preferences and the metadata, the plural participants to one or more rooms of the plural rooms; and providing, based on the assigning, for virtual conferencing between the plural participants within the one or more rooms.

Abstract: Method for generating collectible media content items based on location information starts with processor receiving location information from location sensor coupled to first client computing device. Processor causes a map interface to be displayed that includes avatar of first user at a location based on the location information and a subset of a plurality of collectible items associated with geographical coordinates. When the first client computing device is determined to be within predetermined distance from a selected collectible item, processor causes front facing camera view to be displayed on the first client computing device, causes lens corresponding to selected collectible item to be applied to the front facing camera view, and causes the image of the selected collectible item displayed on the front facing camera view to change. Lens includes image of the selected collectible item that is overlaid on front facing camera view. Other embodiments are described herein.

Abstract: A map-based graphical user interface for a social media application displays to social media activity information based on submission of geo-tagged social media items to the platform. Geographical distributions of social activity is displayed on a map forming part of the application. A heatmap can represent posting density or unusualness.

Abstract: A social media platform provides a map-based graphical user interface (GUI) with multiple geographically anchored icons that are selectable to trigger playback of respective galleries of ephemeral messages. Each of the plurality of location-based ephemeral galleries comprises media content contributed by multiple different users. The ephemeral galleries are compiled based on geotag data associated with respective ephemeral messages submitted by multiple users to be publicly viewable via the map-based GUI. Two or more different types of galleries are represented in the map-based GUI by different, visually distinct types of gallery icon.

Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for selective location-based identity communication. The systems and methods identify a current location of a mobile computing device and detect a selection of a user interface element associated with the current location. The systems and methods cause presentation of a set of display elements corresponding to the current location and detect selection of a display element of the set of display elements. The systems and methods modify a display characteristic for the current location of the mobile computing device within a set of mobile computing devices based on the selection of the display element.
