A passenger seat voice communication system (100) for a passenger seat of a passenger vehicle includes a first communication device (102A) that supports voice communication. The first communication (102A) device includes a receiver (108) and a video monitor (110). The system includes a second communication device (102B) configured to support voice communication at a second passenger seat. The system also includes a controller (104) that receives from the first communication device (102A) a selection and request to establish voice communication with the second passenger seat, and sends the request to the second communication device (102B). If the request is accepted by the second communication device (102B), the controller (104) establishes voice communication between the first communication device (102A) and the second communication device (102B).

Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for improving establishment and streaming of audio communication among mobile computing devices and for handling dropping or adding of users during an audio conversation. For example, a method comprises: establishing, on a mobile application, an audio conversation among at least a first user and a second user; streaming the audio conversation to a third user who accesses the mobile application on a mobile device; transmitting to the mobile device for visual display, during the audio conversation, on the user interface of the mobile application on the mobile device, a visual representation of the first user and the second user; determining the second user drops out of the audio conversation; and adding a new user to the audio conversation.

This application discloses a sending method and apparatus, and an electronic device. The method includes: receiving a first input for a communication interface of a target group; displaying M identifiers in response to the first input, where each identifier is used to indicate one group member in the target group, and the M identifiers support to be multiple selected; receiving a second input for N identifiers among the M identifiers; displaying a preset symbol and N names in a preset combination form in an input box in response to the second input, where the N names are names of N group members indicated by the N identifiers; and sending a communication message in the target group, where the communication message includes the preset symbol and the N names in the preset combination form, where both M and N are integers greater than or equal to 2.

Incoming call signal reception means receives an incoming call signal including a caller number, caller information, and ring type information. Image generation means generates, based on the incoming call signal, a caller information image including at least a portion of the caller information as character information. Telephone dictionary registering means registers the caller number, caller text information, and the caller information image in a telephone dictionary. Incoming call screen display means receives the caller number and acquires the registered caller text information and the caller information image corresponding to the received caller number from the telephone dictionary. Incoming call screen display means displays an incoming call screen including the caller text information and the caller information image.
