Claims24
A portable communication device comprising:
- a memory;
- a transceiver to support a wireless communication;
- a camera;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- capture an image using the camera,
- store, in the memory, a content corresponding to the captured image and a thumbnail image representative of the content,
- transmit, via the transceiver, the content to a server,
- after the content is transmitted to the server, in response to an amount of a remaining available space of the memory is less than a defined amount, remove the content from the memory, automatically, without further user input, wherein the thumbnail image representative of the content remains in the memory,
- while the content is not stored in the memory, receive a request for displaying the content,
- in response to receiving the request for displaying the content, display the thumbnail image representative of the content with an indicator indicating that the content is stored in the server,
- receive the content from the server while displaying the thumbnail image representative of the content with the indicator, and
- after the content is received from the server, display the content.
