Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods are provided for presenting videos in a playback sequence. The systems and methods receive, by a first client device, a message comprising an identifier of a first video from a second client device. The message is generated by the second client device responsive to a request to share the first video from a video playback graphical user interface (GUI) that automatically plays back a first plurality of videos in sequence. The systems and methods receive input by the first client device that selects the identifier of the first video. The systems and methods, in response to receiving the input, launch, by the first client device, the video playback GUI that automatically plays back a second plurality of videos in sequence and present, by the first client device, the first video corresponding to the identifier before presenting the second plurality of videos in the sequence.
