a second display for displaying information transmitted from the first computing device via the communication network using the second application program using the API via the communication network;
wherein the second memory stores instructions in the second application program that, when executed by the second processor, causes the second processor to perform a second operation comprising the steps of;
starting the second application program using the API via the communication network;
downloading the information from the first computing device via the server;
displaying the downloaded information on the second display;
receiving audio inputs from a user of the second computing device via the second microphone;
memorizing data of the audio inputs into the second memory;
transforming the audio inputs to text strings; and
transmitting the data of the audio inputs in the second memory and/or the text strings to the first computing device;
wherein the first memory stores instructions in the first application program that, when executed by the first processor, causes the first processor to perform a first operation comprising the steps of;
receiving the data of the audio inputs and/or the text strings;
displaying the text strings together with an audio mark which shows that the data of the audio inputs are transmitted together with the text strings if the text strings are received together with the data of the audio inputs on the first display; and
reproducing the audio inputs via the first speaker if a user of the first computing device touches the audio mark on the first display.
