The content may also be displayed on the receiver's mobile communication device after the voice call has ended. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method of communication between a sender's mobile communication device and a receiver's mobile communication device using a mobile app, the sender's mobile communication device and the receiver's mobile communication device being connected to one another via one or more wireless communication networks, the sender's mobile communication device and the receiver's mobile communication device further being connected to a backend via the one or more wireless communication networks, the method comprising: i. creating content on the sender's mobile communication device; ii. sending the content to the receiver's mobile communication device; iii. based upon the content being successfully sent to the receiver's mobile communication device, causing a dial icon to appear on the sender's mobile communication device; iv. placing a voice call from the sender's mobile communication device to the receiver's mobile communication device by tapping the dial icon; and v. based upon the receiver's mobile communication device receiving the voice call, displaying the content on the receiver's mobile communication device for a predetermined duration or until the receiver answers the voice call. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the content comprises at least one of the following parts: a photo, a video, an audio clip, a digital image or icon, a sticker, an emoji, a text message, a sketch or message, and a location of the sender or of the receiver. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The method of claim 2, further comprising: based upon the content comprising a photo or a video, setting the photo or the video as a background of the content, otherwise setting a default background as the background of the content. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The method of claim 3, further comprising: based upon the content comprising a digital image or icon, a text message, or a sketch or message, displaying the digital image or icon, the text message, or the sketch or message overtop the background. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) The method of claim 2, further comprising: based upon the content comprising a location of the sender or of the receiver, causing the backend to compute at least one of a distance and directions between the sender's location and the receiver's location, wherein the content comprises at least one of the distance and the directions. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: displaying the content on the receiver's mobile communication device after the voice call has ended. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The method of claim 6, further comprising: causing a floating icon to appear on the receiver's mobile communication device after the voice call has ended; and displaying the content on the receiver's mobile communication device in response to the receiver tapping the floating icon. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, further comprising: prompting the sender to specify the area over which the floating icon is to be displayed on the receiver's mobile communication device. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: determining at least one of whether the mobile app is installed on the receiver's mobile communication device and whether the receiver's mobile communication device is online. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: blocking one or more contacts such that content is not received from the one or more contacts. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: blocking one or more types of media such that the one or more types of media is not received. ### Claim 12 A method of communication between a sender's mobile communication device and a receiver's mobile communication device using a mobile app, the sender's mobile communication device and the receiver's mobile communication device being connected to one another via one or more wireless communication networks, the sender's mobile communication device and the receiver's mobile communication device further being connected to a backend via the one or more wireless communication networks, the method comprising: i. creating content on the sender's mobile communication device; ii. sending the content to the receiver's mobile communication device; iii. based upon the content being successfully sent to the receiver's mobile communication device, causing a dial icon to appear on the sender's mobile communication device; iv. placing a voice call from the sender's mobile communication device to the receiver's mobile communication device by tapping the dial icon; and v. displaying the content on the receiver's mobile communication device before or after the voice call. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The method of claim 12, further comprising: prompting the sender to specify whether the content is to be displayed on the receiver's mobile communication device before or after the voice call. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, further comprising: based upon the sender specifying that the content is to be displayed on the receiver's mobile communication after the voice call, causing a floating icon to appear on the receiver's mobile communication device after the voice call has ended; and displaying the content on the receiver's mobile communication device in response to the receiver tapping the floating icon. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The method of claim 14, further comprising: prompting the sender to specify the area over which the floating icon is to be displayed on the receiver's mobile communication device. ### Claim 16 (depends on 12) The method of claim 12, wherein the content comprises at least one of the following parts: a photo, a video, an audio clip, a digital image or icon, a sticker, an emoji, a text message, a sketch or message, and a location of the sender or of the receiver. ### Claim 17 A method of communication between a sender's mobile communication device and a receiver's mobile communication device using a mobile app, the sender's mobile communication device and the receiver's mobile communication device being connected to one another via one or more wireless communication networks, the sender's mobile communication device and the receiver's mobile communication device further being connected to a backend via the one or more wireless communication networks, the method comprising: i. creating content on the sender's mobile communication device; ii. sending the content to the receiver's mobile communication device; iii. based upon the content being successfully sent to the receiver's mobile communication device, causing a dial icon to appear on the sender's mobile communication device; iv. placing a voice call from the sender's mobile communication device to the receiver's mobile communication device by tapping the dial icon; v. based upon the receiver's mobile communication device receiving the voice call, displaying the content on the receiver's mobile communication device for a predetermined duration or until the receiver answers the voice call;
