1. A method for device-to-device media capturing, the method comprising:
detecting that a first device and a second device are proximate to one another, wherein the first device is associated with a first user account of a media service and an active media content item provided by the media service, and the second device is associated with a second user account of the media service;
determining that the second device is moving toward the first device, including:
receiving, from the first device, first motion data associated with the first device;
receiving, from the second device, second motion data associated with the second device;
comparing the first motion data and the second motion data; and
based on the comparison, determining that the second device is moving toward the first device; and
in response to detecting that the first device and the second device are proximate to one another and determining that the second device is moving toward the first device, storing an identifier of the active media content item to a library associated with the second user account.
