Enhancing silence sms/mms application

Components

Silence is an open source application that send SMS/MMS in a way to encourage privacy with recipient.this wonderful app send sms, media / attachment with maximum privacy.
silence application is capable of encrypting all messages locally to enable retrieval when phone is misplaced.
Message wise, silence has been delivering but mistakes cant be corrected after sms/mms has been sent, Also, the call icon on the application works for other apps. On these i will like to give my proposition.

Proposal

So far so good, silence has been a very good means of communication between friends, family, business partners and so on. sending messages that is encrypted is part of the achievement and i will like to propose that

.1 Silence should have the ability to EDIT,and RESEND already sent messages

.2 Silence should have the ability to call directly from the app.

As it is known that mistake has no master, we are all prone to making one at some given point in time, silence having the ability to edit text and resend as the case may be will make it a lot easier to deal with mistakes. when a message is sent and the recipient has not checked,the sender might edit and resend if he discovers he made a mistake. the only cost to this should be an extra charges for the process.half of the initial charge.

Also, i discovered that making calls on silence directs the call to external applications before the call can be initiated. it will be of great benefit if calls are made directly from the application without completing the action using other apps. This can be done by linking the application itself with the phone contact and dialler, once a call is initiated from the app,internal processes will follow which will automatically put call forward directly to the dialed number.

Mockups / Examples

image of silence app

image of the application showing the edit part

From the above image, once the sent message is long pressed, an edit icon shows at the top of the screen. once the icon is clicked, the already sent message will be available for edit which can be resent after editing,

image of the way call behaves on silence application

when the call icon on silence app is pressed, it bring options to choose from before a call can be put forward to the receiver.
having the ability to make phone call directly from the app will be more unique.the image below shows how the application will look like when the "" calling directly from silence''' is initiated.

Benefits

Having these features will be of great benefit to silence app as it will allow users to make amendment to their mistakes when messages are sent. sometimes, messages are sent with harsh words when one is angry,the ability to edit and resend this sent message will be of great help when anger subsides,this is attainable only if the recipient has not checked the content of the message.
Calling directly from the application commands a self sufficient ability to reach out to the world. All call will be carried out in one place without dependency. except in the case of media apps.

Having these great features will be of great benefit to both the users and the developer and i believe there would be maximum improvement on the app if the suggested features are implemented.

Thanks.
