In one example, prior to establishing the content sharing session: (1) user selection input selecting at least a portion of content displayed by a user computing device is received; (2) in response, a content sharing window comprising the portion of the content and user-selectable contact selectors is displayed; and (3) user contact input selecting a contact selector corresponding to a selected recipient is received. In response to receiving the user contact input, the content sharing session is established in which the portion of the content is provided to a recipient device associated with the selected recipient. An interaction region is displayed in the content sharing window, and recipient input from the recipient device is displayed in the interaction region.
