Abstract
Techniques include receiving a user input (e.g., a text string), transmitting the input to a search system (e.g., as a search query), and receiving search results from the system in response to transmitting the input. The techniques further include determining whether the user input includes a message (e.g., using the user device, search system, or another system or device). The techniques include, when the user input includes a message, generating a messaging result that indicates a messaging software application (app) (e.g., which may or may not be installed on the user device), and displaying the search results and the messaging result at the device. The techniques also include, when the user input does not include a message, refraining from generating the messaging result, and displaying the search results at the user device without displaying the messaging result.
