Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for delayed message notification associated with a content item. The system can receive a notification from a first user and intended for a second user, and can comprise a message, a content identifier, and a timestamp indicating a relative time within a content item associated with the content identifier. The system can transmit, to a device associated with the second user, a portion of the notification. In one implementation, the system can receive an indication that the second user's device is presenting the content item, and cause the message to be presented to the second.
