Method and system for sharing content on instant messaging application during calls

A method for sharing content, the method performed by at least one processor of a first user terminal and the method comprising:

• initiating, through a first external device, a call between a first set of user accounts, wherein the first set of user accounts comprises a first user account associated with the first user terminal and a second user account associated with a second user terminal, wherein the first set of user accounts is a subset of a second set of user accounts, wherein the second set of user accounts is included in a chat room of an instant messaging application, and wherein the first set of user accounts is different from the second set of user accounts;
• displaying a list of a plurality of contents previously uploaded in the chat room including the second set of user accounts by the second set of user accounts sorted in an order of high similarity to a call topic between the first set of user accounts as candidate content to share on the display of the first user terminal with a call screen, wherein the list comprises information on an uploading user or a time of upload to the chat room of the plurality of contents, wherein the similarity to the call topic is determined by analyzing call data for a period of time;
• receiving a user input for selecting from the candidate contents to share a content to share;
• transmitting a co-view request associated with the content to share to the first external device, wherein the content to share is one of the plurality of contents previously uploaded in the chat room including the second set of user accounts;
• and
• displaying the content to share with a call screen between the first set of user accounts on a display of the first user terminal.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• initiate, through a first external device, a call between a first set of user accounts, wherein the first set of user accounts comprises a first user account associated with a first user terminal and a second user account associated with a second user terminal, wherein the first set of user accounts is a subset of a second set of user accounts, wherein the second set of user accounts is included in a chat room of an instant messaging application, and wherein the first set of user accounts is different from the second set of user accounts;
• transmit a co-view request associated with a content to share to the first external device, wherein the content to share is one of a plurality of contents previously uploaded within the chat room including the second set of user accounts;
• and
• display the content to share with a call screen between the first set of user accounts on a display of the first user terminal,
• wherein the transmitting the co-view request comprises:
• displaying a list of the plurality of contents previously uploaded in the chat room including the second set of user accounts by the second set of user accounts on the display of the first user terminal, wherein the list comprises information on an uploading user or a time of upload to the chat room of the plurality of contents;
• and
• receiving a selection for one of the plurality of contents, and
• wherein the plurality of contents in the list are sorted and displayed in an order of high similarity to a call topic between the first set of user accounts, and
• wherein the similarity to the call topic is determined by analyzing call data for a period of time.

A first user terminal, comprising:

• a communication interface;
• a display;
• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to:
• initiate, through a first external device, a call between a first set of user accounts, wherein the first set of user accounts comprises a first user account associated with the first user terminal and a second user account associated with a second user terminal, the first set of user accounts is a subset of a second set of user accounts, the second set of user accounts is included in a chat room of an instant messaging application, and the first set of user accounts is different from the second set of user accounts;
• transmit a co-view request associated with a content to share to the first external device, wherein the content to share is one of a plurality of contents previously uploaded within the chat room including the second set of user accounts;
• and
• display the content to share with a call screen between the first set of user accounts on the display of the first user terminal,
• wherein the transmitting the co-view request comprises:
• displaying a list of the plurality of contents previously uploaded in the chat room including the second set of user accounts by the second set of user accounts on the display of the first user terminal, wherein the list comprises information on an uploading user or a time of upload to the chat room of the plurality of contents;
• and
• receiving a selection for one of the plurality of contents, and
• wherein the plurality of contents in the list are sorted and dis played in an order of high similarity to a call topic between the first set of user accounts, and
• wherein the similarity to the call topic is determined by analyzing call data for a period of time.
