Abstract

A first user equipment (UE)—during a real time text (RTT) communication session with a second UE—may make a control function available to a local user of the first UE, who may invoke the control function to break up his/her RTT content within organized conversation bubbles. In an example process, after displaying first text character(s)—which was input by the local user—within a first conversation bubble designated for the first UE (or the local user thereof), the first UE may detect an invocation of the control function, followed by additional user input requesting to type one or more second text characters. Invocation of the control function prior to the additional user input requesting to type the second text character(s) may cause the first UE to display the second text character(s) within a second conversation bubble designated for the first UE, rather than the first conversation bubble.
