A computer-implemented method to provide transcripts of multimedia messages is disclosed. The method may include receiving, at a server, a message with an attached media file. The message may be directed to a user device. The server may be configured to receive and direct messages to the user device. The method may further include separating the media file from the message before the message is provided to the user device. The method may also include generating, at a transcription system, a transcript of audio data in the media file. The method may also include providing the message to the user device for presentation of the message on the user device. The method may further include providing the transcript and the media file to the user device for presentation of the transcript and the media file on the user device.

Methods and apparatus for displaying potentially private information are disclosed. A computing device, that is showing a breathing view on its touch screen display, detects a peek request event, such as a swipe on the display. Before allowing the user to see potentially private information in response to the peek request, the computing device determines if the computing device is currently locked and if an increased privacy setting is enabled. If the computing device is not locked, or the increased privacy setting is not enabled (even though the computing device may be locked), the computing device shows a full peek view (e.g., some or all of the text from a recent text message). However, if the computing device is locked, and the increased privacy setting is enabled, the computing device shows a secure peek view (e.g., the number of new text messages, but no text from the messages).
