Abstract: A device implementing a system for multipath connection management may include first and second local communication interfaces, and a processor configured to establish a primary connection for communicating between the first local communication interface and a first remote communication interface of an other device, and a secondary connection for communicating between the second local communication interface and a second remote communication interface. The processor may be configured to transmit application and control data over the primary connection and concurrently transmit a copy of control data over the secondary connection. The processor may be configured to determine that a degradation of the quality of the primary connection is attributable to the other device. The processor may be configured to switch the secondary connection to the first local communication interface and the second remote communication interface. The processor may be configured to transmit a copy of the application and control data over the secondary connection.

Abstract: A device implementing cellular communication protocol aware multimedia streaming may include at least one processor configured to establish a link for communicating with another device, wherein the link utilizes at least one of a first cellular communication protocol or a second cellular communication protocol. The at least one processor may be configured to determine a bit rate for a video stream to be provided to the other device based at least in part on whether the link utilizes the first cellular communication protocol or the second cellular communication protocol, wherein a first bit rate is determined when the link utilizes the first cellular communication protocol and a second bit rate is determined when the link utilizes the second cellular communication protocol. The at least one processor may be configured to provide, for transmission over the link to the other electronic device, the video stream at the determined bit rate.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide for shared experience sessions within a group communications session such as a video call. The shared experience session may be, as one example, a co-watching session in which the participants in the call watch a video together while in the call. Encrypted shared state data may be exchanged between the participant devices, with which the participant devices can provide synchronized and coordinated output of shared experience data for the shared experience session of the group communications session.

Abstract: A method is provided that includes receiving, at a media device and from a client device, a request for a temporary identifier for a group chat session, and provisioning, by the media device, the temporary identifier based on a device identifier of the media device. The media device provides the temporary identifier to the client device. The media device receives from a server an invitation to join the group chat session, where the invitation is directed to the temporary identifier, and the media device joins the group chat session.
