Abstract
A communication server detects a first communication request from a first caller device to a second caller device. The communication server detects a second communication request from the second caller device to the first caller device. The first communication request and the second communication request both occur within a threshold time period. The communication server establishes, without additional input from the first caller device and the second caller device, an active session in response to the first communication request. The active session is established between the first caller device and the second caller device. The communication server dismisses the second communication request.
Claims17
A method comprising:
- establishing, in response to a first communication request from a first caller device to a second caller device and a second communication request from the second caller device to the first caller device, an active session between the first caller device and the second caller device;
- adding a third caller device to the active session in response to an additional communication request from the third caller device to the first caller device, the additional communication request occurring within a threshold time period of the first communication request or the second communication request;
- and
- transmitting, to the second caller device, a notification indicating the presence of the third caller device in response to adding the third caller device.
A system comprising:
- memory hardware;
- and
- one or more processors configured to execute instructions stored in the memory hardware to:
- establish, in response to a first communication request from a first caller device to a second caller device and a second communication request from the second caller device to the first caller device, an active session between the first caller device and the second caller device;
- add a third caller device to the active session in response to an additional communication request from the third caller device to the first caller device, the additional communication request occurring within a threshold time period of the first communication request or the second communication request;
- and
- transmit, to the second caller device, a notification indicating the presence of the third caller device in response to adding the third caller device.
At least one non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions operable to cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- establishing, in response to a first communication request from a first caller device to a second caller device and a second communication request from the second caller device to the first caller device, an active session between the first caller device and the second caller device;
- adding a third caller device to the active session in response to an additional communication request from the third caller device to the first caller device, the additional communication request occurring within a threshold time period of the first communication request or the second communication request;
- and
- transmitting, to the second caller device, a notification indicating the presence of the third caller device in response to adding the third caller device.
