    Abstract: Method of causing a selectable item including customized graphic for electronic messaging application starts with a processor generating customized graphics based on user identifiers for a first, a second, and a third client device. Processor causes a communication list interface that includes a group selectable item to be displayed on the first client device. The group selectable item includes the second customized graphic and the third customized graphic. Processor receives a request for a group communication session from the first client device. The request for the group communication session is generated by the first client device when the user of the first client device selects a first portion of the group selectable item displayed on the first client device. Processor causes a communication interface for the group communication session between a group of client devices to be displayed at the first client device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

    Abstract: Method of generating a contextual action bar starts with processor causing an application icon associated with an application to be displayed by a display screen of a client device. Processor receives selection of application icon from a user and determines a context of client device. Context can comprise identification of application, type associated with application, or type of interface including application icon. Processor generates action bar based on the context of the client device, causes a first portion of display screen to display an application interface associated with the application, and causes a second portion to display the action bar that is associated with a messaging system. Other embodiments are also disclosed herein.

    Abstract: Method of generating contextual sending menu starts with processor causing first client device to display first and second portion of display screen in inactivated position. Processor receives selection from first user of first client device of chat selectable item in application interface. Chat selectable item is associated with communication interface of messaging system. In response to receiving the selection, processor generates media content item based on context of first client device and causes first portion and second portion of display screen to be displayed in an activated position by causing first portion to contract, and causing second portion to expand and to comprise a preview of media content item and selectable item associated with second user. Processor then receives from the first user selection of the selectable item associated with the second user, and transmits media content item to second client device. Other embodiments are also disclosed herein.

    Abstract: Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure improve the functionality of electronic messaging software and systems by generating and selecting customized media content items (such as images) with avatars of different users within electronic messages based on the context of communications between the users. For example, users of different mobile computing devices can exchange electronic communications with each other, and the system can analyze these communications to present options for media content items containing the users' avatars based on content in the communications, actions or events taken by or involving the users, or combinations thereof. The users may select such media content items for inclusion in their electronic communications.
