    Abstract: A service for providing messaging extension apps can be an online store that can be browsed and searched for the apps. The store uses extension app identifiers which are related to app identifiers that are sent between devices in a conversation of messages so that a receiving device can, when it does not have the extension app installed to interact with received content, use the extension app identifier to download and install the required extension app. In one embodiment, the download and install can occur while the messaging app remains the foreground app, and the messaging app adds an icon of the newly installed extension app into a browsable tray in the UI of the messaging app.

    Abstract: An electronic device displays a first application view at a first size. The first application view corresponds to a first application in a plurality of concurrently open applications. The device detects a first input; and, in response, enters an application view selection mode for selecting one of the concurrently open applications, and displays images of open applications. Each image is displayed at a second size that is smaller than the first size, a corresponding open application icon is concurrently displayed with each image, and the images and corresponding open application icons correspond to at least some of the plurality of concurrently open applications. The device detects a selection gesture on a respective image of an open application; and, in response, displays a respective application view at the first size for a corresponding application; ceases to display the images and corresponding open application icons; and exits the application view selection mode.
