1. A method comprising:
detecting a first signal that includes real-time biosignal data of a sending user of a first device, the real-time biosignal data being generated by a biosignal sensor coupled to the first device;
detecting a second signal from the first device, the second signal including real-time physical activity data of the sending user of the first device;
for each state of a plurality of states relating to the sending user of the first device:
determining a first score based on a first signal value included in the real-time biosignal data,
determining a second score based on the real-time physical activity data, and
determining a total score based on the first score determined based on the first signal value included in the real-time biosignal data of the sending user and further based on the second score determined based on the real-time physical activity data of the sending user;
selecting a first state from the plurality of states based on a ranking of total scores of the plurality of states;
determining a time period for a display of an ephemeral message based on immediacy of the first state, the ephemeral message including a first user-selectable element representing the first state:
generating a first notification that includes the ephemeral message; and
causing display of the first notification on the first device, the ephemeral message being displayed on the first device within the time period.
