sending, by the first user device to a particular server device, a first request for a first set of content based on the first content server content identifier;
receiving, by the first user device from the particular server device, the first set of content responsive to sending the first request;
receiving, by a second user device, the first human readable content identifier;
comparing, by the second user device, the first human readable content identifier to a second set of content server content identifiers included in a second content identifier mapping file, the second content identifier mapping file comprising mappings of a second set of human readable content identifiers to the second set of content server content identifiers, the second content identifier mapping file being personalized for the second user device based on a second set of one or more criteria of the second user device;
determining, by the second user device from the second content identifier mapping file, a second content server content identifier from the second set of content server content identifiers that is mapped to the second human readable content identifier in the second content identifier mapping file;
