Activation of dynamic filter generation for message management systems through gesture-based input

A computer system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a non-transitory computer-readable medium including one or more sequences of instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform
• operations comprising:
• detecting a gesture input corresponding to an action to be performed in a messaging application on at least one message for a user, wherein the gesture input includes a hold portion and a transverse portion;
• analyzing the gesture input to identify the action to be performed within the messaging application on the at least one message, wherein the action to be performed is identified based on a length and a direction associated with the transverse portion;
• displaying within the messaging application, based on the analyzing, one or more selectable options related to the action;
• receiving data indicating a selection of a selectable option from the one or more selectable options, the selection associated with the at least one message, the one or more selectable options unique to the length and direction associated with the action's transverse portion;
• sending the data indicating the selection associated with the at least one message to a computing system of a message management service, to define a rule within the messaging application based on the selection indicated by the data and based on the action, wherein the rule indicates a new action to be performed on future messages satisfying the rule;
• detecting a second gesture input in the direction, the second gesture input corresponding to a second action to be performed in the messaging application on a second message for the user, wherein the second gesture input comprises a second hold portion and a second transverse portion;
• analyzing the second gesture input to identify the second action to be performed within the messaging application on the second message, wherein the second action to be performed is identified based on a second length and the direction associated with the second transverse portion;
• and
• displaying within the messaging application, based on the analyzing, one or more second selectable options related to the second action, the one or more second selectable options unique to the second length and the direction associated with the second action's transverse portion.
