Abstract: The technical problem of generating a video feed that represents a user who is party to a video call in a manner that invokes the sense of visual presence of the caller without communicating the live video of the user is addressed by configuring a video calling system to include an avatar call platform. The avatar call platform is configured to generate and display a video of an animated figure that represents a caller during a call, in that the face of the animated figure moves in a way that matches what the caller is saying during the call.

Abstract: A messaging system, which hosts a backend service for an associated messaging client application, includes a voice notes system that addresses the technical problem of serving an audio message to the recipient in a manner that permits the recipient to consume the message in a text format as a transcription. A chat user interface (UI) provided with the voice notes system permits a user to play an audio message or request generation of the transcription of the audio message on-demand to prevent unnecessary cluttering of the UI real estate.
