1. A method of sharing content between a first user and a second user using a software application of a mobile device having a biometric application to obtain biometric information, the mobile device storing a first user profile of the first user but not a second user profile of the second user, the method comprising:
receiving, by the software application, a content sharing request;
in response to receiving the content sharing request, launching the biometric application by sending a biometric request from the software application to the biometric application;
obtaining, by the biometric application, in response to the biometric request, first biometric information of the first user and second biometric information of the second user;
verifying, by the software application, that the first biometric information of the first user matches a first user biometric information in the first user profile of the first user;
sending, by the software application, the second biometric information of the second user to a server,
receiving, by the software application, in response to the sending, a notification from the server, the notification including a match determination between the second biometric information of the second user and a second user biometric information in the second user profile of the second user; and
processing the content sharing request, by the software application, by sharing the content between the first user with the second user, based on the verifying of the first biometric information of the first user by the mobile device and receiving the notification including the match determination from the server.
