Claim 18:
19. A system comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory component having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
displaying, in a communication session between a plurality of users, an icon that represents a shared augmented reality experience comprising a shared virtual box that is in a closed state, the shared augmented reality experience being generated by an individual user of the plurality of users;
receiving inputs from a first device of a plurality of devices and a second device of the plurality of devices that select the icon;
in response to receiving the inputs, launching the shared augmented reality experience on the first device and the second device;
obtaining a sequence of triggers associated with the shared virtual box in the shared augmented reality experience, the sequence of triggers configured to change the shared virtual box from the closed state to an open state;
receiving, from the first device of the plurality of devices, first input associated with the shared virtual box;
receiving, from the second device of the plurality of devices, second input associated with the shared virtual box;
determining that the first input and the second input received from the first device and the second device correspond to the sequence of triggers associated with the shared virtual box;
modifying the shared virtual box from being displayed on the plurality of devices in the closed state to being displayed in the open state in response to determining that the first input and the second input correspond to the sequence of triggers associated with the shared virtual box; and
in response to determining that the first input and the second input correspond to the sequence of triggers, navigating the first device and the second device back to the communication session and replacing the icon that represents the shared augmented reality experience with a message generated by the individual user to reveal contents of the shared virtual box.
