Abstract
Electronic communications are managed across multiple identities. A user is able to create an account as well as any desired, required, or appropriate number of profiles under the account. Text messages are exchanged between users using specific profiles. For example, some text messages can be exchanged using a personal profile while other text messages need to be exchanged using a professional profile. In some instances, exchanged text messages are saved to a centralized archive. As such, one or both of the users involved in an exchange can request to retrieve some or all of the exchanged messages at a later time.

A system for managing communications across a plurality of identities, the system comprising:
- a messaging server comprising a processor and a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- receive, from a communication device of a first user, a request to create a first account;
- create, in response to one or more indications from the first user, a first profile, a second profile, and a third profile associated with the first account,
- display indications of the first profile, the second profile, and the third profile on a graphical user interface (GUI) of the communication device of the first user;
- receive a plurality of messages from the communication device of the first user;
- transmit at least one of the plurality of messages from the first user using each of the first profile, the second profile, and the third profile;
- and
- archive the plurality of messages;
- wherein the first profile is a permanent profile that does not expire, the second profile is a temporary profile that expires after a specified period of time, and the third profile is a group profile configured to support communication among a plurality of users included in a group.
A method for managing communications across a plurality of identities, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a communication device of a first user, a request to create a first account;
- creating with a processor, in response to one or more indications from the first user, a first profile, a second profile, and a third profile associated with the first account,
- displaying indications of the first profile, the second profile, and the third profile on a graphical user interface (GUI) of the communication device of the first user;
- receiving a plurality of messages from the communication device of the first user;
- transmitting at least one of the plurality of messages from the first user using each of the first profile, the second profile, and the third profile;
- and
- archiving the plurality of messages;
- wherein the first profile is a permanent profile that does not expire, the second profile is a temporary profile that expires after a specified period of time, and the third profile is a group profile configured to support communication among a plurality of users included in a group.
