Abstract

A system of exchanging and managing information includes a mobile device configured to automatically insert, exchange and update a caller'"'"'s contact information into a user'"'"'s phonebook. The phonebook can reside on either the UICC card, SIM, USIM, Mega SIM, any other smart card or an integrated chip, on the mobile device or on a remote server. The automatic insert and/or automatic exchange mechanism is triggered when a call is made between two people on mobile phones or other devices.

Claims

1. An application module for integration in a wireless device, the application module configured to:

detect a communication event between a first wireless device and a second wireless device, the communication event occurring over a wireless network;

receive a caller identification for the second wireless device;

retrieve first user information related to a first user of the first wireless device; and

send the first user information over the wireless network to the second wireless device identified by the caller identification for the second wireless device.

2. The application module of claim 1 further configured to prompt the first user for entry of the first user information and update the first user information.

3. The application module of claim 2 further configured to send an update message to the second wireless device when the first user information is updated.

4. The application module of claim 1 further configured to prompt the second user to insert the first user information into the second wireless device.

5. The application module of claim 1 further configured to insert the first user information into the second wireless device.

6. The application module of claim 5 wherein the information related to the first user is inserted into an address book of one of a Subscriber Identity Module, a UMTS Subscriber Identity Module, a smart card or an embedded chip included in the second user device.

7. The application module of claim 1 further configured to send the first user information to the second wireless device to store the first user information in the second wireless device.

8. The application module of claim 7 further configured to send the first user information within a message comprising a SMS message or a MMS message to the second wireless device to store the first user information in the second wireless device.

9. The application module of claim 1 further configured to:

receive second user information from the second wireless device; and

prompt the first user of the first wireless device to accept the second user information for storage in the first wireless device.

10. The application module of claim 1 further configured to reside on a server, the server configured to interact with the first user device and the second user device over the wireless network.

11. The application module of claim 1 further configured to allow entry of a permission level for the information stored in the first wireless device.

12. The application module of claim 11 further configured to send information associated with the first wireless device that corresponds to the permission level to the second wireless device.

13. The application module of claim 11 further configured to store the permission level that corresponds to the second wireless device.

14. The application module of claim 11 further configured to store a sent record to indicate a time of sent data, a destination number and a permission level.
