Message timestamp re-alignment for message thread consistency across multiple devices

摘要

Systems and methods for message timestamp re-alignment for message thread consistency across multiple devices are disclosed. In some implementations, an outbound message originating at a mobile phone is received at an integrated messaging server. The outbound message is associated with a messaging protocol. A timestamp representing a send time for the outbound message associated with the messaging protocol at the mobile phone is determined, at the integrated messaging server, by receiving an indication of the send time from the mobile phone. The outbound message and the timestamp are stored at the integrated messaging server. The outbound message and the timestamp representing the send time for the outbound message are provided from the integrated messaging server to a client computing device different from the mobile phone.

1. A method comprising:
receiving, at an integrated messaging server, a message associated with a messaging protocol and originating at a mobile device based on a request by a user of the mobile device to send the message, the request made by the user at a time when the mobile device was disconnected from a cellular network; determining, at the integrated messaging server, a timestamp representing a send time for the message associated with the messaging protocol at the mobile device by receiving an indication of the send time from the mobile device, wherein the send time for the message corresponds to the time when the mobile device was disconnected from the cellular network and the user made the request to send of the message, and wherein the send time for the message is different from a time when the message was received at the integrated messaging server; storing, at the integrated messaging server, the message and the timestamp; and providing, from the integrated messaging server to a client computing device different from the mobile device, the message and the timestamp representing the send time for the message.
