The patent US12074831B2 outlines a method for managing a messaging system that involves several key steps to ensure secure and efficient message handling between authorized users. The process begins with a messaging server receiving a message from a second mobile messaging client device, which is associated with a second authorized user. This message is then stored in a database linked to the messaging server. Subsequently, a message presence notification is sent to a first mobile messaging client device associated with a first authorized user. Upon receiving this notification, the first client device sends a request to retrieve the message, including client authentication data. The server validates this data before transmitting the message and its attributes to the first client device, where they are stored until the message is managed according to the specified attributes.

The claims further detail various aspects of message management, including the ability to set a predetermined viewing time after which the message may no longer be displayed, as well as a predetermined deletion time based on when the message was sent. The method also allows for the first mobile messaging client device to send notifications back to the server regarding the management of the message, either after or before the message is managed. Additionally, the message attributes can include limitations on the number of times the message can be accessed. This structured approach aims to enhance user control over message visibility and access, thereby improving the overall messaging experience while maintaining security and privacy.
