Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for facilitating an interactive artificial-reality activity. A method includes, after a user of a head-wearable device has opted-in to using an artificial-reality application to facilitate connecting with other participating users, determining, based on user-specific suggestion criteria, that a suggested user is located in an approved common space with the user and has opted-in to use the artificial-reality application. The method includes causing the head-wearable device to present an user interface (UI) element for linking the suggested user and the user. Upon the user selecting the UI element for linking the suggested user with the user, the method includes automatically causing the head-wearable device to provide visual-guidance UI elements to navigate the user to an interactive-activity location where the user and the suggested user will perform an artificial-reality activity while also displaying information about the artificial-reality activity to be performed.
