The network allows different computers, hosts or devices (such as PDAs, smart phones...) to share files, audio intercommunication, and video intercommunication. However, the network transmission and communication behaviors of the aforementioned different functions are usually required to be different. Software can only be used, and usually, for devices that do not implement some corresponding software, it is completely impossible to achieve two-way communication. Taking the Skype Skype as an example, if two computers want to communicate via SKYPE, it is necessary to log in to SKYPE at the same time. For the unilateral use of SKYPE, there is absolutely no way to notify the other party that there is no login. Users of SKYPE are severely limited in their ease of use. In addition to the aforementioned SKYPE, almost all known softwares with two-way communication functions communicate with each other, which requires users to use the same software at the same time. This limitation is the largest network software currently. Use restrictions.

In order to solve the above-mentioned prior art two-way communication, the technical problem that the two parties must execute the same or corresponding software at the same time to achieve the transmission effect, thereby causing inconvenient use, the present invention uses a sharing management mechanism to allow single-logged-in users. The above technical problem can be solved by inviting another unlogged user to accept the transmitted data through the server.
