Abstract

Implementations disclose a user interface that supports an access control mechanism for peer-to-peer sharing technology. An example method includes providing for display a user interface comprising a plurality of media items and a plurality of media availability indicators, wherein a portion of the user interface represents that an encrypted version of a media item of the plurality of media items and an encryption key for the encrypted version are being received over a peer-to-peer connection; updating a media availability indicator of the media availability indicators to represent that the encrypted version of the media item and the encryption key are saved; receiving an indication that the encrypted version of the media item is decrypted; and updating the media availability indicator to represent the media item is available to be experienced.
