Abstract:
Systems and techniques are disclosed for receiving one or more recipient identifiers and a destination location from a user or an application. A uniform resource locator may be generated and may include a destination ID corresponding to the destination location. An entry containing the one or more recipient identifiers may be generated in an access control list for the destination location. A recipient may request access to the destination location by selecting the uniform resource locator. A recipient identifier may be determined for the recipient requesting the access and may be compared to entries in the access control list. If the recipient identifier matches an entry in the access control list, then the recipient may be granted access to the destination location.
Abstract:
A method for providing a cross-application content player is disclosed. The method includes receiving, during playback of a content item in a first content player within a first user interface of a first mobile application, an indication of a user request pertaining to a second mobile application, wherein the first mobile application is associated with a first platform, and the second mobile application is associated with a second platform.

Abstract:
A computer-implemented technique can include providing, at a computing device including one or more processors, a chat application user interface for display. The chat application user interface can be associated with a real-time chat communication between a user of the computing device and another user of another computing device via a chat application. The technique can also include determining that the user of the computing device is interacting with a non-chat application other than the chat application. Additionally, the technique can include determining shareable content of the non-chat application and modifying the chat application user interface to include a selectable indicator of the shareable content. The technique can also include receiving a selection of the selectable indicator by the user, and in response to receiving the selection, transmitting the shareable content of the non-chat application to the other user of the other computing device via the chat application.
