Moreover, method embodiments may include additional steps and/or omit performing the illustrated steps. The scope of the present disclosure is not limited in this respect.

The term "include" and variations thereof as used herein are open-ended, i.e., "including but not limited to". The term "based on" is "based, at least in part, on". The term "one embodiment" means "at least one embodiment"; the term "another embodiment" means "at least one additional embodiment"; the term "some embodiments" means "at least some embodiments". Relevant definitions for other terms will be given in the following description.

It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", and the like in the present disclosure are only used for distinguishing different devices, modules or units, and are not used for limiting the order or interdependence relationship of the functions performed by the devices, modules or units.

It is noted that references to "a", "an", and "the" modifications in this disclosure are intended to be illustrative rather than limiting, and that those skilled in the art will recognize that "one or more" may be used unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.

The names of messages or information presented between devices in the embodiments of the present disclosure are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of such messages or information.

Referring to fig. 1, a flow of one embodiment of a presentation method according to the present disclosure is shown. The demonstration method as shown in fig. 1 comprises the following steps:

step 101, determining a prompting mode for prompting the unread message items based on the total number of the applied unread message items.

In this embodiment, an execution subject (for example, a terminal device) of the presentation method may determine a prompting manner for prompting the unread message items based on the total number of the unread message items of the application.

In this embodiment, the application may be any kind of application, and is not limited herein. For example, the application may be an instant messaging application, a video playing application, a house intermediary platform application, a mail application, and the like.

Here, the trigger timing of the embodiment may be set according to a specific application scenario, and is not limited herein. As an example, the method shown in the present embodiment may be started to be executed when the user opens the application; the method of the present embodiment may also be started when the user opens the unread message notification page.

In this embodiment, the unread message may also be referred to as a new message. The unread message items may include unread messages in the same session, i.e., one in the same session or indicate two unread messages, counted as one unread message item. It is understood that there are multiple unread messages in the first and second conversations, but these multiple unread messages are in the first and second conversations, and thus these multiple unread messages count as one unread message item. It is to be understood that the number of participating users in the session may be at least two, i.e., may be two, or may be at least three.

In this embodiment, the total number of unread message entries may be understood as the number of sessions having unread messages.

In this embodiment, the prompting manner may be used to prompt the unread message item.

In this embodiment, the prompting manner includes the type of the unread message prompt messages to be displayed and the number of the unread message prompt messages of each type, and each unread message prompt message indicates an unread message item. As an example, the total number of unread message entries is 10. And determining to adopt two types of unread message prompt information based on the total number, and prompting 8 unread message items in the 10 unread message items. The unread message prompt messages of the first type are displayed for 5, and the unread message prompt messages of the second type are displayed for 3. Each of the presented unread message prompt messages may be used to prompt an unread message item.

Here, the type of the unread message alert information may be set to the actual application scenario, and may be, for example, at least two.

In some embodiments, the unread message alert message may include at least one of the following types: a first type of reminder information and a second type of reminder information. I.e., the type of unread message prompts, may include a first type and a second type.

As an example, if the prompt message is of a first type, the unread message items are displayed by adopting the prompt message of the first type; and if the prompt message is of the second type, displaying the unread message items by adopting the prompt message of the second type.

Here, the presentation area of the single first type of reminder information is larger than the presentation area of the single second type of reminder information. Here, the presentation area may be an area occupied by presenting the unread message alert information.

In some application scenarios, the first type of prompt information includes more content than the second type of prompt information, and therefore, the display area of the first type of prompt information is larger than the display area of the second type of prompt information.

In some embodiments, the specific content included in the first type of prompt information may be set according to an actual application scenario, and is not limited herein. The specific content included in the second type of prompt information may also be set according to an actual application scenario, which is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, the first type of hints information can include unread message item identifications and unread message content. The second type of alert information may be an unread message item identification. Here, the unread message item identification may be a session identification of a session in which the unread message is located.

Here, the content of the unread message may be specific content of the unread message, such as a text type unread message or an emoticon type unread message.

Here, the session identification may be different according to the participant in the session; if the number of the participating objects in the session is two, since one is the login user of the application, the identifier (e.g. avatar) of the participating object other than the login user can be used as the session identifier; if the number of the participating objects in the session is at least three, the participating objects in the session can be understood as a group, the name of the group can be used as the session identifier, and a set of identifiers (e.g., a header set) of the participating objects in the group can also be used as the session identifier.

It should be noted that, by providing two types of unread message item prompt information, and the first type of unread message item prompt information may include an unread message item identifier and unread message content, more relevant information of the unread message item may be provided. The second type of unread message items may be identified for the unread message items, and thus may provide the most critical unread message item-related information.

And 102, displaying at least one type of unread message prompt information in a display interface of the unread message item according to the determined prompt mode.

In this embodiment, the execution subject may display at least one type of unread message prompt information in a display interface of the unread message item according to the determined display manner.

Here, presenting at least one type of unread message alert information may include any of: displaying the first type prompt information; displaying a second type of prompt message; and displaying the first type prompt message and the second type prompt message.

It is understood that the type of the unread message prompt message shown in this embodiment is two, however, in practical applications, the type of the unread message prompt message may be set to be at least three, and if the type of the unread message prompt message is at least three, those skilled in the art may also adopt at least three types of unread message prompt message implementation schemes in light of the present disclosure.

It should be noted that, in the presentation method provided in this embodiment, the presentation manner adapted to the total number is determined based on the total number of the unread message items, and each unread message prompt message prompts one unread message item, and different types of prompt messages can be adopted for prompting aiming at the unread message items, so that a user can distinguish different unread message items conveniently, and the efficiency of obtaining information by the user is improved, that is, the information presentation efficiency is improved.

It should be noted that, by determining the display mode adapted to the total number based on the total number of the unread message items and determining the prompt mode adapted to the display interface under the condition that the area of the display interface is limited, the display interface can be reasonably arranged, and the balance can be performed on two contradictory aspects of the number of the unread message items to be prompted and the content abundance degree of the unread message items, so that the utilization rate of the display interface is improved, and the information display efficiency is improved.

In other words, if the number is smaller, more first-type prompt messages (with larger display area) are used for prompting so as to prompt the user for more contents in the unread message items; if the number is larger, more prompt information (with smaller display area) of the second type is adopted for prompting so as to prompt a user with more unread message items.

In some application scenarios, the step 102 may include at least one of: displaying at least one first type prompt message in a first area of the display interface; and displaying at least one second type prompt message in a second area of the display interface.

Here, the first region and the second region may have parameters such as a position and an area. The determination method of each parameter may be set according to an actual situation, and is not limited herein.

In some application scenarios, the position and the area of the first region may be preset. Similarly, the position and area of the second region may also be preset.

In some application scenarios, the positions of the first area and the second area may be preset. However, the areas of the first region and the second region may be obtained in total. As an example, if the total number is 15, 5 unread message items may be prompted with the first type of prompt information, 10 unread message items may be prompted with the second type of prompt information, and the second type of prompt information is presented in two rows; as an example, a first type of hint information may be used to hint 8 unread message items, and a second type of hint information may be used to hint 7 unread message items, the 7 unread message items being presented in a row.

Referring to fig. 2, which shows an exemplary scenario, in a first area 201, first type hints information may be presented, as an example, 5 first type hints information are shown in fig. 2. These 5 first-type reminder messages, first-type reminder message 2011 is labeled "one number" and includes the unread message content "see-once-a-week? "where" a number "may be understood as an unread message item identification (e.g., a user avatar); similarly, the first type prompt message 2012 is labeled "number two" and includes the unread message content "tuesday meeting? "; the first type of alert 2013 is labeled "three", and includes the unread message content "wednesday? "; the first type of prompt 2014 is labeled "four," and includes the unread message content "thursday see? "; the first type of prompt information 2015 is labeled with a "five number" and includes unread message content "friday? ".

In the second area 202, a second type of prompt information is shown, for example, 5 second type prompt information are shown in fig. 2, the second type prompt information 2021 is marked with a "sixth number", where the "sixth number" can be understood as an unread message item identifier (e.g., a user avatar), similarly, the second type prompt information 2022 is marked with a "seventh number", the second type prompt information 2023 is marked with an "eighth number", the second type prompt information 2024 is marked with a "ninth number", and the second type prompt information 2025 is marked with a "tenth number".

In fig. 2, a gap is left between the first region 201 and the second region 202 in order to more clearly show the first region and the second region; in practical applications, there may be no gap between the first region and the second region.

It should be noted that, by displaying the first type prompt information and the second type prompt information in two areas, the order and the uniformity of elements in the display interface can be improved, the utilization rate of the display interface can be improved by improving the order (the unread message prompt information of the two types is displayed together, which may result in more gaps that are not utilized in the interface), and the browsing efficiency of the user can be improved by improving the uniformity.

In some embodiments, the method may further include: in response to detecting a first predefined browsing operation in the first area; determining target second type prompt information from the second type prompt information, and generating target first type prompt information for prompting a target unread message item aiming at the target unread message item prompted by the target second type prompt information; and displaying the target first type prompt message in the first area, and stopping displaying the target second type prompt message in the second area.

Here, the specific form of the first predefined browsing operation may be set according to an actual scene, and is not limited herein. As an example, the first predefined browsing operation may be a slide-from-bottom-up operation.

Referring to FIG. 3A, an exemplary scenario of a first predefined browsing operation is shown. The user's hand 301 may slide from the position shown in fig. 3A, in the direction indicated by arrow 302.

Here, the target second-type hint information is determined from the second-type hint information, which may be determined in various ways. As an example, determining target second-type prompt information according to the sending time of the unread message; the target second type prompt message may be determined according to the speaking times of the login user of the application in the session indicated by the unread message item.

It can be understood that the target second type of prompt message may prompt the target unread message item, and the target unread message item may also be prompted by the first type of prompt message, so that the target first type of prompt message of the target unread message item may be generated and presented after the target unread message item is determined.

Referring to fig. 3A and 3B, the second type prompt message (3021 in fig. 3) labeled "six" may be determined as the target second type prompt message. Then, target first-type hint information for the target unread message item may be generated for the target unread message item prompted by the target second-type hint information, the target first-type hint information being shown as first-type hint information 303 in fig. 3B, the first-type hint information 303 including an unread message item identification "six" and unread message content "saturday? ".

Here, presentation of the target second-type reminder information in the second area may be stopped.

In some embodiments, in response to determining that the second area stops displaying the target second-type prompt message, displaying other second-type prompt messages except the target second-type prompt message at the original display position of the target second-type prompt message.

Referring to fig. 3B, the second type prompt message marked with "six" is stopped being displayed in fig. 3B, and the original display position of the second type prompt message marked with "six" (i.e., the first position on the left side of the second area) shows the second type prompt message marked with "seven".

Referring to arrow 304 in fig. 3B and 3C, as the user sliding operation proceeds, the unread message item identifiers in the interface can visually present an effect of moving in the direction indicated by arrow 304.

In other words, each second-type prompt message in the second area may move from left to right, and if there is still an unread message item that is not prompted, the unread message item that is not presented may generate a second-type prompt message, such as the second-type prompt message 305 shown in fig. 3B, and further such as the second-type prompt message 306 shown in fig. 3C. The second type prompt message 305 is denoted by "zhangsan", and the second type prompt message 306 is denoted by "liquan". In addition, the second type prompt message of the second area may be converted into the first type prompt message to be displayed in the first area; for example, the second type prompt message labeled "seven" may be converted into the first type prompt message (including "seven" and "sunday.

In fig. 3A, 3B and 3C, the same contents as those in fig. 2 are not numbered for simplicity of illustration; it is understood that the same contents in fig. 3A, fig. 3B and fig. 3C as fig. 2 can refer to fig. 2, and are not described herein again.

It should be noted that, when the user browses the first type of prompt information in the first area, the second type of prompt information of the target unread message item may be "supplemented" into the first area along with the browsing process of the user, and when the second type of prompt information is "supplemented", the first type of prompt information may be switched to be used to prompt the target unread message item, so that the target unread message item prompted by the second type of prompt information (with less content) may be prompted by the first type of prompt information (with more content) along with the browsing process of the user, thereby displaying more content of the target unread message item in time, improving the information display efficiency, and improving the information acquisition efficiency of the user.

It should be noted that, as the first predefined browsing operation of the user proceeds, the process of adding the second type of prompt information into the first area is dynamically shown, as shown in fig. 3A, fig. 3B and fig. 3C.

In some embodiments, the above method further comprises: and determining the position relation between the first area and the second area according to the preset position relation or the position relation designated by the user.

Here, the preset positional relationship may indicate a positional relationship of the first region and the second region. As an example, the preset positional relationship may be "the first region is above the second region"; as an example, the preset positional relationship may be "the second region is on the left side of the first region".

Here, the positional relationship between the first area and the second area may be specified by the user.

Optionally, the user may indicate before displaying the first region and the second region, for example, the user may select a preset page layout template in the general setting of the application, and use the position relationship between the first region and the second region in the page layout template selected by the user as the position relationship specified by the user.

Optionally, the operation may be performed after the first area and the second area are displayed to indicate the position relationship between the first area and the second area. As an example, after presenting the first area and the second area, the user may select the second area and then drag, and then release the second area dragging to the left of the first area, whereby the user may specify to drop the second area to the left of the first area.

In some embodiments, the method may further include: in response to detecting the predefined area position change operation, a positional relationship of the first area and the second area is determined according to the changed position indicated by the area position change operation.

Here, the specific implementation form of the predefined area location changing operation may be set according to an actual application scenario, and is not limited herein. As an example, the region position changing operation may be a drag operation for the first region or the second region.

Here, the area position changing operation may be performed for the first area or the second area.

It should be noted that, by providing a way for the user to change the location of the area, the user can adjust the layout of the display interface individually according to the habit and the page layout, so that the interface layout is reasonable for the user.

In some embodiments, the second region is below or to the left of the first region.

It should be noted that, in a normal situation, when a user uses an application to browse an unread message, the user faces a screen, and characters in an interface displayed on the screen are upright, and when the position relationship between the first area and the second area is determined by taking the up-down, left-right directions of the user as references, the second area may be on the left side of the first area, that is, the left hand side of the user; the second region may also be below the first region, as shown in fig. 2.

In some embodiments, the method may further include: and in response to the detection of the trigger operation aiming at the first type prompt information, presenting a first session interface, wherein the first session interface is used for presenting the unread message item prompted by the first type prompt information aiming at the trigger operation.

Here, the first type prompt information may be in response to a user operation, in other words, a display area of the first type prompt information is actually preset with a control, and the control may be in response to the user operation.

Here, for the trigger operation of the first type prompt information, the operation position may be on the first type prompt information or at an arbitrary position in the display area of the first type prompt information (for example, a blank position in the display area).

In some embodiments, the method may further include: and in response to the detection of the trigger operation aiming at the second type prompt information, displaying a second session interface, wherein the second session interface is used for displaying the unread message items prompted by the second type prompt information aiming at the trigger operation.

Here, the second type prompt message may be in response to a user operation, in other words, the display area of the first type prompt message is actually preset with a control, and the control may be in response to the user operation.

Here, for the trigger operation of the second type prompt information, the operation position may be on the first type prompt information or at any position in the display area of the second type prompt information (for example, a blank position in the display area).

It should be noted that the second type prompt information may respond to a user operation, so that the user may quickly enter the second session interface by triggering the second type prompt information, and thus, the unread message item may be briefly prompted by the second type prompt information, and the user triggers the second type prompt information.

In some embodiments, the step 101 may include: and determining the number of the first type prompt messages and the number of the second type prompt messages based on the total number, wherein the sum of the number of the first type prompt messages and the number of the second type prompt messages is the total number.

Here, the prompt may be performed for all unread message items; i.e. without limiting the number of first type of reminder information and the number of second type of reminder information. The realization scheme can be thought as follows: if the total number is larger, more second type prompt information can be adopted for prompting; if the total number is smaller, the first type prompt information can be adopted for prompting.

In some embodiments, in step 102, the display style of the first region and the second region is preset. That is, the proportion of the first area and the second area in the presentation interface is determined. The presentation style includes the number of unread message prompt messages that can be presented (i.e., the number of presentations). The number of presentable items in the first area is preset, and the number of presentable items in the second area is also preset.

As an example, in the second area, the exposable number may be 5 or 10. Optionally, the display modes of the preset number of the second type prompt messages, for example, the second type prompt messages are arranged in one row or two rows, and for example, the second type prompt messages are arranged in one column or two columns, may be preset.

It should be noted that the display style of the first region and the second region is preset, so that the amount of calculation is reduced, and the display speed is increased. The concrete description is as follows: the display style of the first region and the second region may be relatively fixed without changing according to the total number (i.e. if the total number is larger, if the preset number of the second type prompt messages is not fixed, a larger, uncertain number of the second type prompt messages need to be displayed); therefore, even if the total number is changed, the styles of the first area and the second area of the display interface can be rapidly determined, the calculation amount of calculating the styles of the first area and the second area according to the total number every time is avoided, and the display speed is improved due to the reduction of calculation links.

In some embodiments, the step 101 may include: determining a first preset quantity and a second preset quantity; and determining the prompting mode according to the total number, the first preset number and the second preset number. Here, the first preset number may indicate the number of the first type of prompt messages that can be presented in the first area, and the second preset number may indicate the number of the second type of prompt messages that can be presented in the second area.

In some embodiments, the determining the prompting manner according to the total number, the first preset number, and the second preset number may include: and in response to determining that the total number is not greater than the first preset number, determining that the presentation mode comprises prompting all unread message items through the first type prompt message.

As an example, the first preset number is 5 and the second preset number is also 4. If the total number is not greater than 5, the presenting may include prompting all unread message items through the first type of prompt message.

In some embodiments, the determining the prompting manner according to the total number, the first preset number, and the second preset number may include: and in response to determining that the total number is greater than a first preset number and in response to determining that the total number is not greater than the sum of the first preset number and the second preset number, determining a prompting mode including prompting all unread message items through first type prompt information and second type prompt information.

As an example, the first preset number is 5 and the second preset number is also 4. If the total number is greater than 5 and not greater than 9 (the sum of the first preset number 5 and the second preset number 4), the presenting manner may include prompting all unread message items through the first type prompt message and the second type prompt message. Specifically, 5 first-type prompts may be presented, and no more than 4 second-type prompts may be presented.

In some embodiments, the determining the prompting manner according to the total number, the first preset number, and the second preset number may include: and in response to determining that the total number is greater than the sum of the first preset number and the second preset number, determining a prompting mode including prompting a part of unread message items through the first type of prompting information and the second type of prompting information.

As an example, the first preset number is 5 and the second preset number is also 4. If the total number is greater than 9 (the sum of the first preset number 5 and the second preset number 4), the presenting may include prompting a partial unread message item through the first type of prompt message and the second column of prompt messages. In other words, if the total number is greater than 9, the existing display positions of the first area and the second area are not enough, only a maximum of 9 can be displayed, and the rest can be waited as candidate displays.

In some embodiments, the method may further include: and in response to determining that a second predefined preview operation in the second area is detected and in response to determining that the candidate presentation unread message items exist, replacing the second type prompt information presented in the second area with second type prompt information prompting the candidate presentation unread message items.

Here, the candidate unread message items may be unread message items that have not been presented yet, except for presentation with the first type of prompt information and presentation with the second type of prompt information, among the unread message items. It can be understood that, under the condition that the number of the first type prompt messages in the first area is fixed, and the number of the second type prompt messages in the second area is also fixed, if the total number of the unread message items is large, the prompt messages of all the unread message items cannot be displayed in the display interface, and therefore, unread message items beyond the allowable number of the display interface can be determined, and the unread message items can be determined to be candidate to be displayed.

Here, a specific implementation manner of the second predefined browsing operation may be determined according to an application scenario, and is not limited herein. As an example, the second predefined browsing operation may be a sliding operation of the user in the second area.

Please refer to fig. 4A, fig. 4B and fig. 4C. In fig. 4A, the user may perform a leftward sliding operation in the second area, and the user hand 401 may slide in the direction indicated by the arrow 402. During the sliding process, the interface shown in fig. 4B may be shown first, and then the interface shown in fig. 4C may be shown. In fig. 4B, the first area is not moved relative to fig. 4A, the second type of guidance information indicated by "six" in fig. 4A disappears from the second area, and the second type of guidance information indicated by "one third" is added to the right end of the second area. In fig. 4C, the first area is not moved with respect to both fig. 4A and 4B, the second type of guidance information denoted by "seven" in fig. 4B disappears from the second area, and the second type of guidance information denoted by "lie four" is denoted at the right end of the second area.
