Implementations described herein relate to providing device messages in image compilations based on user content. A computer-implemented method includes determining that a playback mode is entered on a device to display one or more image compilations, each image compilation including images for successive display. Message criteria are obtained for device messages, each device message indicating a device function associated with images of the image compilations or of a user image library. A device message is selected based on associated message criteria. An image is identified in the user image library, the image being in the image compilations, depicts a type of image feature in the image compilations, and/or has characteristic(s) modifiable by the device function. The device message is displayed during image compilation playback and includes the identified image and a message control option. In response to user selection of the message control option, the device function is initiated.

A method includes compressing an image using a quality setting, determining a quality of the compressed image based on a quality metric, and determining if the quality of the compressed image is within a quality range. In response to determining the quality of the compressed image is within the quality range, store the compressed image; and in response to determining the quality of the compressed image is not within the quality range, modify the quality setting, and repeat the compressing step with the modified quality setting, both determining steps, and the applicable in response to step.
