Description

Message unread mark processing method and device, storage medium and terminal

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to the field of terminal technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for processing an unread message, a storage medium, and a terminal.

Background

An application having an IM (Instant Messaging) function installed on a terminal generally supports Messaging. In order to effectively remind the user of reading the message, the application program of the type generally reminds the user of the existence of the unread message in an unread mark mode. For example, in a conversation list displayed by the application program, if there is an unread message currently in a certain conversation, an unread mark such as a number or a red dot or a combination of the two is displayed at a specific position (such as the upper right corner) of the conversation, wherein the number is usually used for indicating the total number of the unread messages currently in the conversation.

In the related art, the unread flag processing for a message generally takes the following forms: the user enters the session (abbreviated as unread session) with unread messages in the session list one by one through clicking operation, and then exits the corresponding session, and the unread marks on the corresponding session are cleared by the terminal. For the above mode, the operation is too complicated, and when the number of unread sessions is large, the processing mode brings great workload to the user; even if the user approximately browses the unread messages which are briefly shown in the display area of the unread session only by sliding the session list up and down without entering the session, the problem that unread marks on the browsed part of the sessions still exist exists, and the user experience is greatly influenced. Therefore, how to effectively process the unread message marks becomes a problem to be solved by those skilled in the art.

Detailed Description

In order to make the technical solutions of the present disclosure better understood by those of ordinary skill in the art, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and claims of the present disclosure and in the above-described drawings are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the disclosure described herein are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

The user information to which the present disclosure relates may be information authorized by the user or sufficiently authorized by each party.

Before explaining the embodiments of the present disclosure in detail, some terms related to the embodiments of the present disclosure will be introduced.

The target application program: in the disclosed embodiment, the target application program generally refers to any application program with an IM function. As one example, the target application includes, but is not limited to: an instant messaging application, a social application, a video application, a short message application, and the like, which are not specifically limited in this disclosure.

Conversation: in the disclosed embodiment, a session refers to a communication process between a local user and one or more other users or interactive systems. Taking the social application program as an example, the communication process between the home terminal user and any friend on the user relationship chain may be referred to as a session.

For example, the interactive system may refer to a server that provides an application service for a target application, that is, the home terminal user may also establish a session with the interactive system, for example, the interactive system may actively push a message to the home terminal user periodically or randomly or whenever there is a message update, so as to form a session, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure.

In addition, a session may include multiple messages, which may include read messages or unread messages. And multiple sessions are typically presented in the form of a list of sessions. The sessions in the same session list may be arranged in descending order according to the update time of the message, that is, the session updated by the latest message is arranged at the top, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the disclosure.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 1, each session occupies one information entry in the session list, i.e., each session has a respective display area. Part or all of the content of the message may also be presented, illustratively, on the information item on which each session resides. And particularly, whether to display part of the content or the whole content may depend on how much content is included in the message and the size of the display area. For example, a part of the content of the latest unread message may be displayed, for example, a title text or a starting part text of the message may be displayed, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

Illustratively, referring to fig. 1, after clicking on an information item of a session, a details page of the session is entered, and the details page of the session shows messages included in the session, wherein the details page generally supports a user to view messages through a sliding up and down operation. The messages included in each session may be arranged in descending order according to the update time of the messages, that is, the latest message is arranged at the top, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the disclosure.

In a possible implementation manner, the message may be a text, a picture, a combination of the text and the picture, and the like, which is also not specifically limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure.

Unread marks: in the disclosed embodiments, the unread tags are used to identify unread messages. For example, whenever there is an unread message for a conversation, an unread flag is displayed at a particular location of the conversation (e.g., the upper right corner).

As an example, the unread flag may be simply one red dot, or simply one number (representing the total number of unread messages), or a combination of both red dots and numbers. In this case, for a combination of the red dot and the number, the number may be displayed inside the red dot, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

The following describes an implementation environment related to a method for processing an unread flag of a message provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Referring to fig. 2, the implementation environment includes a terminal 201 and a server 202. As one example, the types of terminals 201 include, but are not limited to, smart phones, tablets, and the like. In addition, the terminal 201 has a target application having an IM function installed thereon, and the server 202 may be used to provide an application service for the target application.

In the disclosed embodiment, the target application installed in the terminal may present a list of sessions dedicated to displaying messages to the user. Wherein the session list may include a plurality of sessions. These sessions may include, for example, sessions in which unread messages exist, or sessions in which all messages are read. Alternatively, only the sessions in which the unread message exists are included in the sessions, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure. Wherein, for each unread session in which an unread message exists, an unread mark is correspondingly displayed.

The message may be a message that the server 202 actively pushes the terminal 201, or may be a message that the server 202 forwards from another terminal, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal 201 may bulk clear the unread flag of a part of the unread sessions in the session list. That is, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a scheme for clearing the unread marks of partial unread sessions in batches based on directions, and the unread marks of all unread sessions arranged and displayed before or after a session in a session list can be cleared at one time by using the session as a reference point. The processing method can solve at least the following problems:

firstly, a user clears the unread marks on the corresponding unread sessions by entering the sessions one by one and then exiting the sessions, so that the problem of excessively complicated operation is caused, particularly when the number of the unread sessions is large. For example, in a general situation, there is only one unread message contained in an unread session, and part or all of the content of the message is generally directly displayed on the display area of the session, in this case, if the user clears the unread mark by entering the session and exiting the session one by one, the operation is very cumbersome. In addition, even if there is a situation that a plurality of unread messages are included in an unread session, since part or all of the content of the latest unread message is directly displayed on the display area of the session, the user can already roughly know the content of the unread message through the displayed part, and other unread messages may be associated with the content of the latest unread message or have expired, so that it is not necessary to enter the corresponding session for viewing, and the unread marks are cleared in a tedious way of entering the session and exiting the session.

Secondly, the target application program in the related art can also provide a key which is completely cleared, and when the user clicks the key, the terminal can put all unread messages into a read state, namely, the unread marks on all unread sessions in the session list are directly cleared at one time. For the above manner, if the user does not perform any check and directly clears all the unread marks at one time by clicking the key, the important message may be missed.

In addition, assuming that there are 100 unread sessions in the current session list, taking the example that each session in the 100 unread sessions includes one unread message, if the user does not want to miss any unread message, the unread message cannot be completely placed in the read message by directly clicking the corresponding button, so that the user is required to roughly browse the unread message by sliding the session list up and down without entering the session. In this case, the unread marks of the browsed sessions still exist, for example, if the user exits the target application program when browsing to the 40 th session through the sliding session list, the unread marks of the 40 browsed sessions still exist when the user opens the target application program again.

According to the processing method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, on one hand, the unread marks can be cleared without the need of entering the unread sessions one by one and exiting the unread sessions, on the other hand, even if the user does not enter the sessions and roughly browses the unread messages only in a mode of sliding the session list up and down, the unread marks on the browsed partial sessions can be cleared in batch at one time through the processing method, that is, the unread marks on the browsed partial sessions can be quickly cleared, and the unread marks can be partially deleted in all the unread marks at one time. In short, even if the number of unread sessions is large, the processing mode can not bring large workload to the user, the user only needs to execute simple selection operation, the operation is simple and convenient, the user experience is greatly improved, the user does not have learning cost, the processing mode obviously improves the processing efficiency of the unread marks, and the effective processing of the unread marks of the messages is realized.

The method for processing the unread flag of a message provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is explained in detail below.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for processing an unread flag of a message, as shown in fig. 3, which is used in a terminal, according to an exemplary embodiment, and includes the following steps.

In step 301, a session list of the target application is displayed, where the session list includes at least one session in which an unread message exists, and each session in the at least one session is correspondingly displayed with an unread flag.

In step 302, when a selected instruction for any one of at least one conversation is received, a function menu page is displayed, and the function menu page comprises a first type mark key, wherein the first type mark key is used for clearing an unread mark of a part of the conversation with unread messages.

In step 303, when a selection instruction for the first type mark key is received, the unread mark of the session in which the unread message partially exists in the session list is removed with the selected session as a reference point.

According to the method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, a terminal can display a session list of a target application program, wherein the session list comprises at least one session with unread messages, and each session in the at least one session is correspondingly displayed with an unread mark; in the embodiment of the disclosure, when the terminal receives a selected instruction of any one of at least one session, a function menu page is additionally displayed, wherein the function menu page comprises a first-type marking key, and the first-type marking key is used for clearing an unread mark of the session with a part of unread messages; when the terminal receives a selection instruction of the first type mark key, the selected conversation is taken as a reference point, and the unread marks of the conversations with unread messages in the conversation list are removed.

All the above optional technical solutions may be combined arbitrarily to form the optional embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not described herein again.

Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for processing an unread flag of a message, as shown in fig. 3, which is used in a terminal, according to an exemplary embodiment, and includes the following steps.

In step 401, the terminal displays a session list of the target application, where the session list includes at least one session in which an unread message exists, and each session in the at least one session is correspondingly displayed with an unread mark.

As previously mentioned, a target application in the embodiments of the present disclosure generally refers to any application having IM functionality. For example, the target application may be an instant messaging application, a social application, a video application, a short message application, and the like, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.

In one possible implementation, the terminal may pull the session list from the server. Illustratively, after detecting the user login operation of the login target application program, the terminal acquires the session list matched with the login user from the server. That is, when a user logs in to a target application, the terminal may pull a session list matching the logged-in user from the server based on login information input by the user.

As an example, the session list pulled by the terminal from the server may include only sessions in which an unread message exists. Alternatively, the session list may include sessions in which unread messages exist, or sessions in which all messages are read, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure. For example, the embodiment of the present disclosure is merely illustrated in a case that the session list pulled by the terminal from the server only includes sessions in which unread messages exist.

In a possible implementation manner, taking the session list pulled by the terminal from the server only includes the unread sessions as an example, after the terminal pulls the session list matched with the current login user, the unread sessions in the session list may be shown in the following manner: at least one conversation with unread messages in the conversation list is arranged according to the descending order of the updating time, namely, the conversation with the latest unread message is arranged at the top of the conversation list; wherein the update time refers to an update time of a latest unread message in a corresponding session. Wherein fig. 5 shows the session list in descending order of update time. And the numbers following the update time refer to the unread marks.

In addition, if the session list pulled by the terminal from the server includes both sessions in which unread messages exist and sessions in which all messages are read, each session in the session list may also be arranged in a descending order according to the update time, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure.

In step 402, when receiving a selected instruction for any one of the at least one session, the terminal displays a function menu page, where the function menu page includes a first type flag key, and the first type flag key is used to clear an unread flag of a session in which a part of unread messages exist.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, for sessions in which an unread message exists in the displayed session list, when the terminal receives a selection instruction of a login user currently logging in the target application program for any one of the sessions, a function menu page as shown in the left diagram in fig. 6 is displayed.

As an example, the selected instruction may be a long-press instruction, that is, the login user performs a long-press operation on any unread session, and the terminal pops up a function menu page through the target application program. Illustratively, the function menu page is displayed at the forefront of the page in a top-level display manner, which is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In one possible implementation manner, the function menu page includes a first type mark key, a delete key, and a second type mark key. The first type of mark key can be used for clearing the unread marks of partial sessions with unread messages, the second type of mark key can be used for clearing the unread marks of selected sessions, and the delete key can be used for deleting the selected sessions.

It should be noted that the first type mark key also indicates a clearing direction for clearing the partial unread marks, that is, the embodiment of the present disclosure implements batch clearing of the partial unread marks based on the direction through the first type mark key. In another expression, the first type of marking key can realize that part of unread messages are put in a read state in batch based on direction.

Illustratively, the first type of indicia keys include a first direction indicia key and a second direction indicia key. The first direction marking key can be used for marking the unread sessions arranged and displayed before the selected session as read, namely clearing the unread sessions arranged and displayed before the selected session. The second direction flag key may be used to mark unread sessions arranged to be displayed after the selected session as read, i.e., to clear unread sessions arranged to be displayed after the selected session.

As an example, referring to the left diagram in fig. 6, the first direction mark key may be shaped like "mark upper unread session is read", or simply "mark upper read", the second direction mark key may be shaped like "mark lower unread session is read", or simply "mark lower read", the second type mark key may be shaped like "mark lower read", and the delete key may be shaped like "delete session", which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present disclosure.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal can implement, according to two keys, such as "mark read above" and "mark read below" shown in the left diagram in fig. 6, that the unread conversations meeting the condition in a certain direction in the displayed conversation list are cleared of the unread marks based on one mark position (corresponding to the selected conversation in the conversation list). See steps 403 and 404, described in more detail below.

In step 403, when a click instruction for a first direction mark key in a first type mark key is received, the terminal removes unread marks of a first part of sessions in which unread messages exist in the session list by using the selected session as a reference point; wherein the first part of the conversations refer to the conversations arranged and displayed in the conversation list before the selected conversation.

This step is to clear the unread flag of the unread session arranged to be displayed before the selected session, based on a "flag read above" button such as that shown in the left diagram of fig. 6. The direction of the pointing is the unread session above the selected session.

In a possible implementation manner, when a selection instruction for a first type marker key is received, taking the selected conversation as a reference point, and clearing an unread marker of a part of conversations in which unread messages exist in the conversation list, the method may include the following steps:

4031. and when the terminal receives a selection instruction of the current login user on the first type mark key, sending a message processing request to the server.

For example, the instruction for selecting the first type mark key may be a click operation on a "mark read above" key, such as the one shown in the left diagram in fig. 6, which is not particularly limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure.

In a possible implementation manner, the message processing request sent by the terminal may include a User Identification (UID) of the login User, a session Identification of the selected session, and mark direction information indicated by the first-type mark key. The message processing request can carry the user identifier, the session identifier and the marking direction information through the request parameter. For example, for the mark direction information, the mark direction information may be indicated by assigning the direction parameter asc. For example, asc true indicates that the mark has been read above, and asc false indicates that the mark has been read below, which is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

4032. After receiving a message processing request sent by the terminal, the server clears the unread number of the sessions with unread messages in the session list matched with the login user according to the update time and the marking direction information of the selected sessions, and returns a response message (response) to the terminal.

Aiming at the step, after receiving a message processing request, a server firstly searches a session list matched with the current login user through a user identifier carried by the message processing request, and positions a mark position in the session list through the session identifier carried by the message processing request; and then, clearing the unread number of the sessions with the unread messages in the session list according to the update time and the marking direction information of the selected sessions, and returning a response message to the terminal.

Illustratively, since the flag direction information carried by the message processing request indicates to be cleared upwards, taking the unread sessions in the session list as an example in descending order of update time, the server also needs to zero the unread numbers of all unread sessions in the session list that are later than or equal to the update time of the selected session.

4033. And after receiving the response message, the terminal clears the unread marks of the sessions with unread messages in the currently displayed session list based on the response message.

For this step, after receiving the response message returned by the server through the target application program, the terminal clears the unread marks of all the unread sessions arranged and displayed before the selected session, and the clearing effect is as shown in the right diagram in fig. 6.

In step 404, when a click instruction for a second direction mark key in the first type mark key is received, the terminal takes the selected conversation as a reference point, and removes unread marks of a second part of conversations in which unread messages exist in the conversation list; wherein the second part of the conversations refer to the conversations arranged and displayed in the conversation list after the selected conversation.

This step is to clear the unread flag of the unread session arranged to be displayed after the selected session, based on a "read under flag" button such as that shown in fig. 7. The targeted direction is the unread session that follows the selected session.

In a possible implementation manner, when a selection instruction for a first type marker key is received, taking the selected conversation as a reference point, clearing an unread marker of a conversation in which an unread message exists in a part of the conversation list may include the following steps:

4041. and when the terminal receives a selection instruction of the current login user on the second type mark key, sending a message processing request to the server.

For example, the instruction for selecting the second type mark key may be a click operation on a "mark read below" key, such as shown in fig. 7, which is not specifically limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure.

The message processing request comprises a user identification of a login user, a session identification of a selected session and marking direction information indicated by a first type marking key.

4042. After receiving the message processing request, the server clears the unread number of the sessions with the unread messages in the session list matched with the login user according to the update time and the marking direction information of the selected sessions, and returns a response message to the terminal.
