The audio module 170 is used to convert digital audio information into an analog audio signal for output, and also used to convert an analog audio input into a digital audio signal. The audio module 170 may also be used to encode and decode audio signals.

The speaker 170A, also called a "horn", is used to convert the audio electrical signal into an acoustic signal. The terminal device 100 can listen to music through the speaker 170A, or listen to a handsfree call.

The receiver 170B, also called "earpiece", is used to convert the electrical audio signal into an acoustic signal. When the terminal device 100 listens to a telephone or voice message, it is possible to listen to a voice by bringing the receiver 170B close to the human ear.

The microphone 170C, also referred to as a "microphone," is used to convert sound signals into electrical signals. When making a call or sending voice information, the user can input a voice signal to the microphone 170C by speaking the user's mouth near the microphone 170C. The terminal device 100 may be provided with at least one microphone 170C.

The pressure sensor 180A is used for sensing a pressure signal, and converting the pressure signal into an electrical signal.

In some embodiments, the pressure sensor 180A may be disposed on the display screen 194. The pressure sensor 180A can be of a wide variety, such as a resistive pressure sensor, an inductive pressure sensor, a capacitive pressure sensor, and the like. The capacitive pressure sensor may be a sensor comprising at least two parallel plates having an electrically conductive material. When a force acts on the pressure sensor 180A, the capacitance between the electrodes changes. The terminal device 100 determines the intensity of the pressure from the change in the capacitance. When a touch operation is applied to the display screen 194, the terminal apparatus 100 detects the intensity of the touch operation based on the pressure sensor 180A. The terminal device 100 may also calculate the touched position from the detection signal of the pressure sensor 180A.

In other embodiments, the pressure sensor 180A may be disposed at a bezel of the terminal device 100. When a touch operation is applied to the frame of the terminal device 100, the terminal device 100 detects the intensity of the touch operation according to the pressure sensor 180A. The terminal device 100 may also calculate the touched position from the detection signal of the pressure sensor 180A.

In some embodiments, the touch operations that are applied to the same touch position but different touch operation intensities may correspond to different operation instructions. For example: and when the touch operation with the touch operation intensity smaller than the first pressure threshold value acts on the short message application icon, executing an instruction for viewing the short message. And when the touch operation with the touch operation intensity larger than or equal to the first pressure threshold value acts on the short message application icon, executing an instruction of newly building the short message.

The gyro sensor 180B may be used to determine the motion attitude of the terminal device 100. In some embodiments, the angular velocity of terminal device 100 about three axes (i.e., x, y, and z axes) may be determined by gyroscope sensor 180B. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the gyro sensor 180B may be used to detect whether the terminal device 100 is shaken.

The touch sensor 180C is also referred to as a "touch device". The touch sensor 180C may be disposed on the display screen 194, and the touch sensor 180C and the display screen 194 form a touch screen, which is also called a "touch screen". The touch sensor 180C is used to detect a touch operation such as a touch slide operation or the like acting on or near it. The touch sensor can communicate the detected touch operation to the application processor to determine the touch event type. Visual output associated with the touch operation may be provided through the display screen 194. In other embodiments, the touch sensor 180C may be disposed on the surface of the terminal device 100, different from the position of the display screen 194.

Indicator 192 may be an indicator light that may be used to indicate a state of charge, a change in charge, or a message, missed call, notification, etc.

The keys 190 include a power-on key, a volume key, and the like. The keys 190 may be mechanical keys. Or may be touch keys. The motor 191 may generate a vibration cue. Indicator 192 may be an indicator light that may be used to indicate a state of charge, a change in charge, or a message, missed call, notification, etc. The SIM card interface 195 is used to connect a SIM card. The SIM card can be brought into and out of contact with the terminal device 100 by being inserted into the SIM card interface 195 or being pulled out of the SIM card interface 195.

Referring to fig. 2A, fig. 2A provides a block diagram of a possible configuration of a programming module of a terminal device. As shown in fig. 2A, the programming module 200 of the terminal device may include a kernel layer 210, an application framework layer 220, an application layer 230, an API 240, and an android runtime library 250.

The kernel layer 210 at least comprises a system resource manager 211 and/or a device driver 212. The system resource manager 211 may include a process manager, a memory manager, and a file system manager. The system resource manager 211 may perform control, allocation, recovery, etc. of system resources. The device drivers 212 may include a display driver, a camera driver, a bluetooth driver, a shared memory driver, a USB driver, a keypad driver, a WiFi driver, and an audio driver. In addition, the device drivers 212 may also include Inter-process communication (IPC) drivers.

The application framework layer 220 may include a plurality of modules implemented in advance to provide functions shared by the application layer 230. In addition, the application framework layer 220 may provide functionality to the application layer 230 through the API 240 to enable the application layer 230 to efficiently use the limited system resources within the terminal device 100. As shown in fig. 2A, the application framework layer 220 may include: an application manager, a window manager, a multimedia manager, a resource manager, a power manager, a database manager, a connection manager, a notification manager, a graphics manager, a security manager, a telephony manager, an android runtime, and the like.

The android runtime may include a library module, for example, used by a compiler, to add new functionality through the use of a programming language during execution of the application layer 230. In particular, in embodiments of the present application, the android runtime can perform functions related to input and output, management of memory, arithmetic functions, and the like.

The application manager may manage a lifecycle of at least one application in the application layer 230. The window manager is used to manage Graphical User Interface (GUI) resources used on the display screen of the terminal device 100. The multimedia manager serves to detect formats for reproducing various media files and to encode or decode the media files by using a codec suitable for the associated format. The resource manager is used for managing resources, such as source code, memory, storage space, and the like, of at least one application.

The power manager is used to manage the battery or power of the terminal device 100 and provide power information and the like for user operations. The database manager is for generating, searching and/or changing a database to be used by at least one application.

The connection manager is used to manage wireless connections such as WiFi and BT. The notification manager is used for conveying notification type messages to the user, and the notification type messages can disappear automatically after short stay without user interaction. Such as a notification manager may be used to inform about download completion, message alerts, etc. The notification manager may also be a notification that appears in the form of a chart or scroll bar text at the top status bar of the system, such as a notification of a background running application, or a notification that appears on the screen in the form of a dialog window. For example, text information is prompted in the status bar, a prompt tone is given, the terminal device vibrates, an indicator light flickers, and the like.

The graphics manager is used to manage graphical effects to be provided to a user and/or a User Interface (UI) associated with the graphical effects. The security manager is used to secure the system, user authentication, etc. The telephone manager is used for managing the communication functions of voice, video and the like of the terminal equipment.

The API 240 is a collection of API programming functions.

The application layer 230 may include preloaded applications and/or third party applications. Such as a camera, calendar, map, music, short message, WLAN, gallery, talk, navigation, email, bluetooth, or video, etc. The application layer 230 may make a corresponding application interface response according to the user's operation on the touch screen.

Referring to fig. 2B, fig. 2B is a schematic diagram illustrating a principle of displaying an application in response to a touch operation of a user. As shown in fig. 2B, in response to receiving a touch operation (such as a click operation, a long-time press operation, a sliding operation, and the like) that a user applies a corresponding icon to a short message on a display screen (touch screen) of a mobile phone hardware layer, the display screen (touch screen) of the mobile phone reports a touch event (such as a touch point position, a touch operation intensity, a touch operation time, and other parameters) generated by the touch operation of the user to the kernel layer 410 through corresponding driving. The kernel layer 410 may encapsulate the touch event and call the corresponding API 440 to distribute the touch event to the short message application of the application layer 430 so that the short message application responds to the touch event.

It is to be understood that when any application in the application layer 230 of the terminal device 100 receives a new message, the status of the new message is "unread message". In general, the state in which there are unread messages in each application may be visible to the user. For alerting the user to process unread messages in the application.

Illustratively, the terminal device 100 may remind the user to process the unread message in the application by adding the unread message identifier to the application icon. For example, the unread message identification on the application icon can be as shown at 301 in FIG. 3. The method is used for reminding the user of processing the unread messages in the corresponding application and reminding the user of the number of the unread messages in the corresponding application, as shown in 301 in fig. 3.

If the terminal device 100 detects that the user views all the unread messages in an application, or if the terminal device 100 detects that the user marks all the unread messages in an application as "read messages", the terminal device 100 clears the unread message identification on the application icon (e.g., 301 in fig. 3).

Alternatively, if the terminal device 100 detects that the user views an unread message in an application, the terminal device 100 decrements the number of unread messages identified by the unread message identifier (e.g., 301 in fig. 3) on the corresponding application icon by one.

It is known that, during the actual use of the terminal device, the application icons of the applications in which the unread messages exist are not necessarily distributed on the desktop of the terminal device in a centralized manner. As shown in fig. 3, application icons of applications in which there are unread messages (such as the weather, game, short message, and music player applications shown in fig. 3) and applications in which there are no unread messages (such as the clock, calendar, memo, compass, and shared bicycle applications shown in fig. 3) are dispersedly distributed on the desktop of the cellular phone. Also, there is a case where the desktop of the terminal device includes a plurality of pages. Application icons of the application with the unread messages are distributed in different pages of the desktop of the mobile phone in a scattered mode.

Therefore, if a conventional method for processing unread messages is adopted, a user needs to enter applications with unread messages on a desktop of the terminal device one by one, and after the applications with the unread messages enter, each unread message in the applications is processed one by one. The method has excessive skip of interfaces and complicated operation steps, thereby reducing the efficiency of processing unread messages by users.

In order to solve the above problem, the present application provides a new method, in which a terminal device (e.g., a mobile phone) may provide an interface (e.g., an interface 401 shown in (a) of fig. 4 or an interface 402 shown in (b) of fig. 4) for a user to uniformly process unread messages. The interface for uniformly processing the unread messages (hereinafter referred to as an unread message interface) comprises application icons of each application in which the unread messages exist. In some possible cases, the application icon of each application on the unread message interface further includes an identification of the number of unread messages present in the application, as shown at 403 in fig. 4 (b). The terminal device (such as a mobile phone) can provide a method for a user to quickly and centrally manage all unread messages from different applications received by the terminal device (such as the mobile phone) without entering an application interface.

The method for processing the unread messages, provided by the embodiment of the application, provides a method for processing the unread messages quickly and in batch for users. In one aspect, for applications that the user is more interested in (e.g., instant messaging applications), the user need not find an application icon on a desktop page of the terminal device. The terminal equipment can provide an unread message interface for uniformly processing the unread messages for the user, so that the user can quickly enter the application concerned by the user to process the unread messages. On the other hand, for an application (such as a game application) which is not concerned by the user, the user can complete the processing of the unread messages in the game application in batches without entering the application, such as deleting, marking as read, and the like.

It should be noted that fig. 4 is only an exemplary schematic diagram of an unread message interface, and the specific layout form and display form of the unread message interface may also be other forms. For example, the identification on the application icon may also be in other forms. The present application is not limited to the embodiment.

It should be noted that the method for processing the unread messages provided in the embodiment of the present application is performed on the premise that the mobile phone supports displaying, on the display screen of the mobile phone, a function (hereinafter referred to as a batch unread message processing function) of an interface (i.e., an unread message interface) for uniformly processing the unread messages in response to receiving the first operation of the user.

Generally, the batch unread message function of the mobile phone can have the following two situations:

case (1): the function of batch processing the unread messages is preset in the mobile phone when the mobile phone leaves a factory.

For case (1), the user does not need to make the setting of the batch processing unread messages function.

In some cases, when the mobile phone leaves the factory, a preset operation for triggering the mobile phone to display an unread message interface may be preset. For example, shake the phone.

In other cases, the mobile phone can support the user to self-define the preset operation of triggering the mobile phone to display the unread message interface.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 5, a schematic diagram of an example of an interface for setting a function of batch processing of unread messages is provided in the embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 5, an unread message interface trigger operation setting option, such as 502 shown in fig. 5, is displayed on a desktop setting interface 501 of the mobile phone. The user can select preset operations for triggering the mobile phone to display the unread message interface through the option, for example, shaking the mobile phone, pressing the display screen of the mobile phone for a long time, and pressing the volume "+" key and the volume "-" key at the same time. Or, the user may also self-define a preset operation for triggering the mobile phone to display the unread message interface, such as an "O" shaped track sliding operation on the display screen of the mobile phone.

Case (2): the batch processing unread messages function can accept custom ON (ON) or OFF (OFF) of the user.

Exemplarily, as shown in (a) in fig. 6, an exemplary diagram of an interface for setting a batch processing unread messages function is shown in fig. two. As shown in fig. 6 (a), a set key 602 for batch processing of unread messages is displayed on a desktop setting interface 601 of the mobile phone. As shown in fig. 6 (a), the bulk unread message function of the handset is in an off state. In response to the user's operation to turn on the batch processing unread messages function (e.g., operation 603 in (a) of fig. 6), the handset turns on the batch processing unread messages function, as shown by interface 604 in (b) of fig. 6.

For the case (2), the method for processing the unread messages provided by the embodiment of the present application is performed ON the premise that the batch unread message processing function of the mobile phone is in an ON (ON) state.

It should be noted that fig. 5 in the embodiment of the present application is only used as an example of an interface for setting a preset operation of triggering a mobile phone to display an unread message interface, and fig. 6 is only used as an example of an interface for setting a function of batch processing of unread messages. The various function setting options and icons displayed on interface 501 in fig. 5, interface 601 in fig. 6, and interface 604 are merely one possible example. The embodiment of the application does not specifically limit the interface for setting the preset operation for triggering the mobile phone to display the unread messages and setting the function for processing the unread messages in batches. For example, the interface for setting the batch processing unread messages function can be presented to the user in other presentation forms (such as the interface 701 shown in fig. 7), and the interface for setting the batch processing unread messages function can also include other function setting options. Or, the mobile phone can also provide a setting key with the function of batch processing of the unread messages on other setting interfaces besides the desktop setting interface for the user to set.

The method for processing the unread message provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to the mobile phone with the hardware structure shown in fig. 1. Alternatively, the present invention may also be applied to a terminal device having the same, similar, or different hardware structure as that shown in fig. 1, and the present application does not limit this. The method for processing unread messages provided by the embodiment of the present application is specifically described below with reference to a mobile phone having a hardware structure shown in fig. 1. Wherein, the mobile phone has started the function of batch processing of unread messages.

As shown in fig. 8, the method for processing an unread message according to the embodiment of the present application may include S801 to S803:

s801, the mobile phone receives a first operation of the user.

The first operation is a preset operation for triggering the mobile phone to display the unread message interface. For example, the user shakes the mobile phone, the user presses the display screen of the mobile phone for a long time, the user performs sliding operation on the display screen of the mobile phone, or the user presses the volume "+" key and the volume "-" key of the mobile phone at the same time. The embodiments are not limited to the specific form of the first operation.

S802, the mobile phone responds to the first operation and displays a first interface. The first interface comprises at least one application icon of the first application, and the first interface does not comprise an application icon of the second application. At least one first application is an application in which an unread message exists in the mobile phone, and a second application is an application in which an unread message does not exist in the mobile phone.

Illustratively, the first interface may be an interface as shown in (a) of fig. 4. Alternatively, the application icon of each first application may further include an unread message number identifier, where the unread message number identifier is used to identify the number of unread messages existing in the corresponding first application, as shown in (b) in fig. 4.

In some embodiments, on the first interface, a first button, such as an "x" button 1101 shown in fig. 11 (a) or fig. 12 (a), may be further displayed on the application icon of each first application. The first button is used for triggering the mobile phone batch change pair.

In some embodiments, a second button, such as "one-click clear" button 1102 shown in fig. 11 (a) or fig. 12 (a), may also be displayed on the first interface. The second button is used for triggering the mobile phone to change the state of the unread messages in each first application on the first interface in batches and removing the application icon of each first application on the first interface from the first interface.

It should be noted that, the embodiments of the present application only describe some possible first interfaces by way of example, and the first interfaces may also be displayed with other interface display effects. For example, the first interface may also include other icons, buttons, and the like. For another example, the first button or the second button may be displayed at any other position of the display screen. The embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

In some embodiments, the mobile phone may display the first interface according to the first information, obtained by the mobile phone, for characterizing the application information in which the unread message exists.

The first information may be acquired by the mobile phone in response to receiving the first operation. The first information may include an unread message list of at least one application in which the unread message exists.

In some embodiments, the unread messages list includes all application information for which unread messages exist.

Further, the first information is also used for characterizing the number of unread messages in at least one application in which the unread messages exist.

In some embodiments, the unread message list may include at least one application information that the unread message exists, and a number of unread messages in at least one application that the unread message exists.

In general, it is assumed that user a sends a new short message to user B, and in fact, user a sends the new short message to user B through the application server of the short message. The application server of the short message may store the new short message from friend a. In some embodiments, the application server of the short message may also store the number of unread messages in the short message application. The handset B may periodically invoke the remote application server interface to obtain the new short message and/or the unread message number from the application server of the short message. Or, the mobile phone B may call the remote application server interface to obtain the new short message and/or the unread message number from the application server of the short message in response to the operation of the user to open the short message application or at other occasions.

Generally, the permission for the mobile phone B to call the remote application server interface is obtained when the mobile phone B installs the operating system, or obtained when the mobile phone B installs the application, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of acquiring unread messages and/or the number of unread messages by a handset. As shown in fig. 9, when friend a sends a new short message to user B, the application server 910 of the short message stores the new short message from friend a. The application server 910 of the short message may periodically/in response to a preset operation send its stored information (e.g., short message information and/or short message number information) about the short message application to the user B. For each application installed in the mobile phone B, the mobile phone B may obtain information of the corresponding application from each application server (such as

application servers

920, 930, and 940 shown in fig. 9) where the unread message application exists in the same manner.

In the embodiment of the application, when the mobile phone receives the new message, the new message can be sent to the launcher database through the Notification of the mobile phone. Note is a Notification having a global effect, and may be displayed in a Notification field of the system. When the handset receives a new message, the Notification may display a reminder of the new message in a Notification bar. The user may drop down the notification bar to view details of the new message. The launcher database typically stores therein element information for each display interface, position information for each element, and the like. And the display screen (touch screen) is used for displaying the interface according to the information. The element information may describe an icon, a text, a picture, a symbol, a frame, or the like. For specific descriptions of the launcher database and the Notification, reference can be made to explanations and descriptions in the conventional technology, which are not repeated herein.

In this embodiment of the present application, the permission for the display screen (touch screen) to obtain the unread message list from the launcher database may be a permission that is solidified in the mobile phone when the mobile phone leaves a factory, or may also be a permission that is obtained by the mobile phone when an operating system is updated or under other conditions, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. The right of the display screen (touch screen) to retrieve the unread message list from the launcher database can be modified according to the user's settings. For example, while the user turns on the batch unread messages function of the mobile phone, in response to the user's operation to turn on the batch unread messages function of the mobile phone, the display (touch screen) acquires the right to acquire the list of unread messages from the launcher database.

In some embodiments, after receiving the first operation of the user, the mobile phone may obtain the first information including the unread message list from the launcher database. Wherein, the unread message list is used for representing all application information of the unread messages. Further, the unread message list is also used to characterize the number of unread messages in each application in which the unread messages exist. Illustratively, the unread message list includes all application information for the existence of unread messages. Or, the unread message list includes information of all applications in which unread messages exist, and the number of unread messages in each application in which unread messages exist.

Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a handset obtaining an unread message list. As shown in 1001 in fig. 10, after the display (touch screen) of the mobile phone receives a first operation (e.g., shaking the mobile phone) of a user, the driving of the display (touch screen) reports a first operation event (e.g., shaking event) to the Notification. Upon receiving the first operational event, the Notification requests that a list of unread messages be obtained from the launcher database, 1002 in FIG. 10. After receiving the message requesting for obtaining the unread message list from the Notification, the launcher database sends the unread message list (e.g., 1003 in fig. 10) to the display screen (touch screen), so that the display screen (touch screen) displays an unread message interface (e.g., 1004 in fig. 10) according to the unread message list.

The detailed description of the interface for displaying the unread messages on the display screen (touch screen) will be described in detail below.

It should be noted that fig. 10 is only an example of obtaining the unread message list by the mobile phone, and the mobile phone may also obtain the unread message list by other conventional manners and methods, and the specific manner and method for obtaining the unread message list are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

And S803, in response to receiving the second operation of the user, the mobile phone removes the application icon corresponding to the second operation from the first interface.

The second operation may be a double-click operation, a long-press operation or a preset dragging operation of the user on an application icon of any one first application (such as a third application) in the application icons of the at least one first application on the first interface. Alternatively, the second operation may be an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the first button of the third application by the user on the first interface. Wherein the third application is displayed on the first interface, and any one of the at least one first application. Alternatively, the second operation may be an operation (e.g., a click operation) of the second button by the user on the first interface.

In some embodiments, the second operation is a double-click operation, a long-press operation, or a preset drag operation of the application icon of the third application on the first interface by the user (operation 1103 illustrated as (b1) in fig. 11). In this case, the application icon corresponding to the second operation pair is an application icon of the third application. In response to receiving the second operation of the user, the mobile phone changes the states of all the unread messages in the third application into the read messages or the deleted messages in batches. Meanwhile, the mobile phone removes the application icon of the third application from the first interface, displaying an interface as shown in (c) of fig. 11.

In some embodiments, the second operation is an operation in which the user clicks a first button on an application icon of the third application. In this case, the application icon corresponding to the second operation is an application icon of the third application. In response to receiving an operation that a user clicks a first button on an application icon of the third application, the mobile phone changes the state of all unread messages in the third application into 'read messages' or 'deleted messages' in batches. Meanwhile, the mobile phone removes the application icon of the third application from the first interface.

Illustratively, the second operation is an operation (e.g., operation 1104 in (b2) of fig. 11) in which the user clicks the first button on the application icon of the short message application, and in response to receiving the operation 1104, the handset changes the status of all unread messages in the short message application to "read messages" or "deleted messages" in batches. Meanwhile, the handset removes the application icon of the short message application from the first interface, displaying the interface as shown in (c) of fig. 11.

In some embodiments, the second operation is an operation in which the user clicks a second button (as in operation 1201 in (a) in fig. 12). In this case, the application icons corresponding to the second operation are application icons of all applications in the at least one first application displayed on the first interface. In response to receiving the operation that the user clicks the second button, the mobile phone changes the states of all unread messages in all applications in at least one first application into 'read messages' or 'deleted messages' in batches. Meanwhile, the cell phone removes all application icons of the first application from the first interface, and the cell phone displays the interface as shown in (b) of fig. 12.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 13, before S803 (i.e., in response to receiving the second operation of the user, the mobile phone removes the application icon corresponding to the second operation from the first interface), the method for processing the unread message according to the embodiment of the present application may further include:

and S1301, the mobile phone responds to the selection operation of the user on at least one application icon on the first interface, and displays the second interface. The second interface includes a third button for triggering the cell phone to remove the user-selected application icon from the second interface.

For example, the mobile phone may display the application icon of the at least one first application in a state where the application icon of the at least one first application is not selected according to a fourth operation of the user.

In some embodiments, the fourth operation is a double-click operation or a long-press operation of the user on an application icon of any one of the first applications on the first interface.

Illustratively, the third button may be a button 1403 (i.e., a "clear" button) as shown in fig. 14 (c), 14 (d), and 14 (e).

As shown in fig. 14 (a), the handset displays a first interface including application icons for all existing unread message applications. In response to a fourth operation 1401 by the user (such as an operation of double-clicking or long-pressing an application icon of the music player), the cellular phone displays an interface including at least one selection box 1402, such as the interface shown in (b) of fig. 14. And a selection frame is correspondingly displayed on each application icon of the first application.

The mobile phone may respond to a user selection operation on at least one application icon on the first interface (as shown in (c) of fig. 14, the mobile phone receives a user checking operation on a selection box corresponding to the weather, browser and music player application icons), and displays the weather, browser and music player application icons in a selected state. As shown in (c) of fig. 14, selection boxes corresponding to weather, browser, and music player are checked.

In the case where the cellular phone performs S1301, the second operation may be a click operation of the third button on the second interface by the user (as in operation 1404 in (d) in fig. 14). The application icons corresponding to the second operation are application icons selected by the user (weather, browser, and music player application icons as shown in fig. 14 (c) and 14 (d)). In response to receiving the second operation, the handset bulk-modifies the status of all unread messages in the weather, browser, and music player applications selected by the user to "read messages" or "deleted messages".
