Synchronization in a Multiuser Experience

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable code executable by one or more processors to:

• provide, at a first device, a first representation of a multiuser communication session in which the first device and a second device are active;
• synchronize the first representation of the multiuser communication session at the first device with a second representation of the multiuser communication session at the second device by providing, to the second device, state information for the first representation of the multiuser communication session, wherein components of the multiuser communication session are presented consistently among the first device and the second device in accordance with the synchronization;
• detect, at the first device, initiation of an interaction in the first representation of the multiuser communication session satisfying a synchronization suspension criterion;
• and
• in accordance with detecting the initiation of the interaction satisfying the synchronization suspension criterion, cease providing the state information, to the second device, wherein the components of the first representation of the multiuser communication session and the second representation of the multiuser communication session are inconsistently presented in accordance with the first device ceasing to provide the state information.

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising computer-readable code executable by the one or more processors to:
• provide, at a first device, a first representation of a multiuser communication session in which the first device and a second device are active;
• synchronize the first representation of the multiuser communication session at the first device with a second representation of the multiuser communication session at the second device by providing, to the second device, state information for the first representation of the multiuser communication session, wherein components of the multiuser communication session are presented consistently among the first device and the second device in accordance with the synchronization;
• detect, at the first device, initiation of an interaction in the first representation of the multiuser communication session satisfying a synchronization suspension criterion;
• and
• in accordance with detecting the initiation of the interaction satisfying the synchronization suspension criterion, cease providing the state information, to the second device, wherein the components of the first representation of the multiuser communication session and the second representation of the multiuser communication session are inconsistently presented in accordance with the first device ceasing to provide the state information.
