Abstract

Embodiments described herein include an application, system, and method for sending data from a first electronic device to a second electronic device, requesting deletion of the data by a first user of the first electronic device, and deleting the data from the second electronic device.

Claims

1. A method for recalling a message, comprising:

receiving data from a first electronic device associated with a first user at a server;

associating a unique identifier with the data;

sending the data associated with the unique identifier to a second electronic device associated with a second user from the server;

storing the data and the unique identifier on the second electronic device;

receiving a recall request for the data from the first electronic device;

identifying the unique identifier associated with the data;

sending a recall request for the data by the unique identifier to the second electronic device; and

deleting the data associated with the unique identifier from the second electronic device.

2. The method for recalling the message of claim 1, further comprising storing the data and the unique identifier on a memory location associated with the server and deleting the data associated with the unique identifier from the memory associated with the server.

3. The method for recalling the message of claim 1, further comprising storing the data and the unique identifier on the first electronic device and deleting the data associated with the unique identifier from the first electronic device.

4. The method for recalling the message of claim 1, further comprising displaying to the first user through a user interface of the first electronic device information associated with the data.

5. The method for recalling the message of claim 4, further comprising receiving an input from the first user through the user interface indicating the data to be recalled.

6. The method for recalling the message of claim 5, further comprising receiving a request to look up the unique identifier associated with the data to be recalled at the server.

7. The method for recalling the message of claim 6, returning from the server to the first electronic device the unique identifier associated with the data.

8. The method for recalling the message of claim 1, further comprising associating a plurality of unique identifiers to a series of data received from the first electronic device at the server and sent to the second electronic device.

9. The method for recalling the message of claim 8, wherein the plurality of unique identifiers is generated based on an association with the first user and the second user.

10. The method for recalling the message of claim 8, wherein the plurality of unique identifiers are used in a recall request to delete the series of data sent from the first electronic device to the second electronic device.
