Abstract
In some embodiments, a first electronic device shares a portion of a content item corresponding to a respective portion of lyrics for the content item with a second electronic device. In some embodiments, a system facilitates securely sharing a portion of a content item between two devices. In some embodiments, an electronic device generates a server address for accessing a portion of a content item. In some embodiments, a uniform resource locator includes an identification of content, an indication of a first subset of the content, and authentication data.
Claims19
A system comprising:
- a first electronic device and a second electronic device in communication via a messaging service, wherein:
- the first electronic device is configured to:
- generate, based on at least an indication of content and an indication of a first portion of the content, a digital signature;
- and
- transmit, via the messaging service, a request for content to the second electronic device, wherein:
- the request includes the indication of the content, the indication of the first portion of the content, and the digital signature, and
- the second electronic device is configured to:
- receive, via the messaging service, the request for the content;
- transmit the digital signature included in the request for the content to a content delivery service;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that one or more criteria are satisfied, including a criterion that is satisfied when the digital signature is valid, receive, from the content delivery service, the first portion of the content.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions, which when executed by a first electronic device, cause the first electronic device to perform:
- generating a server address, the server address including an indication of content, and an indication of a first portion of the content and not a second portion of the content;
- and
- transmitting, via a messaging service, the server address to a second electronic device, wherein:
- the server address is configured such that use of the server address causes a content delivery service to respond with the first portion of the content and not the second portion of the content.
A uniform resource locator (URL), comprising:
- an identification of content;
- an indication of a first subset of the content;
- and
- authentication data generated using the identification of the content and the indication of the first subset of the content.
