Systems and methods are provided for receiving a selection to add an event invite media overlay to a media content item, receiving content to be added to the event invite media overlay, the content corresponding to an event, and adding to the event invite media overlay, the content corresponding to the event to generate a custom event invite media overlay. The systems and methods further comprise causing display of the custom event invite media overlay on the media content item, receiving at least one user to which to send an invite to the event, and sending, to a second computing device associated with the at least one user, an invite to the event, the invite comprising the custom event invite media overlay and the media content item.

Event planning in a content sharing platform

Systems, devices, methods and instructions are described for generating and displaying a reply menu within a graphical user interface (GUI). One embodiment involves receiving a selection of messages received at a client device, detecting a reply message generated by the first client device in response to selected messages, generating a reply menu comprising an ordered list of user account identifiers, the user account identifiers representing user accounts, each user account associated with a corresponding selected message, causing display of the reply menu within a GUI, receiving a selection of a subset of user account identifiers from the reply menu, initiating independent communication sessions with the selected subset of user account identifiers and transmitting the reply message via independent communication sessions.

Reply back mechanism within a messaging system

In some examples, a computer-implemented method includes accessing a contact database of a sending user, the contact database includes a plurality of contact records, each contact record of the plurality of contact records being associated with a respective user and including respective graphic data, identifying a first set of contact records of the plurality of contact records, each contact record of the first set of contact records having common graphic data as part of the respective graphic data, automatically including the first set of contact records in a contact group of a messaging application of the sending user, detecting a send message operation by a messaging application of the sending user, and causing presentation of a user-selectable graphic icon associated with the contact group within the messaging application, the user-selectable graphic icon being selectable by the sending user to send a message to the contact group.

Group contact lists generation

Systems, methods, devices, computer readable media, and other various embodiments are described for group contact lists generation based on modified user contacts. One embodiment involves receiving, at a server computer from a client device, a plurality of contacts, the plurality of contacts each associated with a respective contact digital interface of plurality of contact digital interfaces, identifying a first set of contacts in the plurality of contacts that include a modification to each of a respective contact digital interface. In some embodiments, the server computer includes generating a first group contact interface comprising the modification, generating a new group contact list that comprises the first set of contacts, associating the first group contact interface with the new group contact list, and causing the first group contact interface to be displayed by the client device.
