Systems and methods for media content communication

A method for communication, comprising:

• receiving at a client device, from an application server, an application package including a plurality of audio content items and mapping data associating the plurality of audio content items with a plurality of text strings;
• receiving a message including:
• a first part including at least a first portion of a text input;
• and
• an identifier of an audio content item of the plurality of audio content items, the identifier of the audio content item being associated with a portion of text from the text input within the message based on the mapping data;
• identifying, from the received application package, the audio content item corresponding to the identifier;
• and
• presenting the first part, a second part of the message, and the audio content item, wherein the second part of the message includes an image associated with the audio content item, wherein the first part and the second part are presented in sequential order such that one of the first part or the second part is presented before the other of the first part or the second part, wherein the audio content item is presented with the second part, wherein the sequential order is based on an order within the message of the text input, wherein, after the first part and the second part are presented, the first part and the second part are displayed in a single bubble at the same time on a display of the client device.

A system for communication, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a memory in electronic communication with the one or more processors;
• instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the one or more processors to:
• receive from an application server an application package including a plurality of audio content items, the application package including instructions to create an audio content directory in the memory, the audio content directory including the plurality of audio content items and a plurality of descriptive text items associated with the plurality of audio content items, wherein the audio content item is in the same location on multiple client devices, the mapping data associating the plurality of audio content items with the plurality of descriptive text items;
• receive a text input;
• determine that a portion of the text input matches a descriptive text item from the plurality of descriptive text items, the descriptive text item being associated with an audio content item of the plurality of audio content items based on the mapping data;
• generate a message including the text input and an identifier of the audio content item of the plurality of audio content items, the identifier of the audio content item being added to the message based on determining that the portion of the text input matches the descriptive text item, the identifier identifying a location of the audio content item in the audio content directory, wherein the identifier identifies the same directory path on the multiple client devices;
• and
• transmit the message to a second client device.
