Abstract: Methods and systems for secure applications running web view applications are disclosed. In some aspects, user data may be secured within a first security domain, that is inaccessible to a web view application running within a second application. The second application accesses the user data via a second security domain, when a request is received from the web view application to display a user interface. The second application then displays a user interface based at least in part, on the user data.

Abstract: A bidirectional bridge for web view is a technical solution to an engineering challenge associated with presenting external content in a web view. A bidirectional bridge for web view facilitates bidirectional communication between the web view included in the messaging client and the messaging client itself. In response to a user action requesting a web page to be loaded in the web view, the bidirectional bridge initiates a request to messaging client to retrieve external content, receives the requested external content from the messaging client, and displays an image representing the external content in the web view as part of the web page.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed provide a virtual currency system within a messaging application by performing operations comprising: launching, within a messaging application, a third-party application; receiving, by the messaging application from the third-party application, a request to perform an ecommerce transaction in relation to an item available for consumption on the third-party application; determining, by the messaging application, an expected attribute for the item based on accessing a database that stores expected attribute information for multiple items; verifying, by the messaging application, that an attribute of the item specified by the request corresponds to the expected attribute for the item; and processing, by the messaging application, the ecommerce transaction in response to successfully verifying that the attribute of the item satisfies a verification criterion based on the expected attribute for the item.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing multiple versions of an application in a social network are described. In some aspects, a first version of the application provides a first set of features while a second version of the application provides the first set of features and also a second set of features. Both the first version of the application and the second version of the application access the same application state data, which may be maintained by a back-end system, such as a social network. When the state data is updated by one or the other versions of the application, a notification may be provided to the other version of the application informing it of the update. The application state data may represent, for example, a shared gaming environment accessed by both the first and second versions of the application.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a method for providing a platform that facilitates communication between a messaging application and a web-based gaming application; receiving, via the platform, a request from the web-based gaming application to execute a reward activity; determining, by the messaging application, that the request satisfies a reward activity criterion; generating the reward activity on the messaging application in response to receiving the request; and communicating, via the platform, a status of the reward activity from the messaging application to the web-based gaming application.
