For example, the electronic device may implement the steps shown in fig. 3, fig. 5, and fig. 6, and the like.

The technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure is explained in detail below:

when the user uses the social software, the user can participate in a plurality of conversations, the conversations can be personal conversations or group conversations, when the importance of a certain participated conversation to the user is low, the user can shield the conversation by starting the disturbance-free function, the conversation with the disturbance-free function cannot remind the user when receiving a new message, the new message received by the disturbance-free conversation can be seen only when the user clicks to enter a conversation window, and therefore the interference of the new message received by the disturbance-free conversation to the user can be reduced.

In view of one or more of the above problems, the present example embodiment provides a message display method. The message display method may be applied to the server 105, and may also be applied to one or more of the

terminal devices

101, 102, and 103, which is not particularly limited in this exemplary embodiment. Referring to fig. 3, the message display method may include the following steps S310 to S330, specifically:

step S310: aggregating the reminding limited session to generate an aggregated session; wherein the alert restricted session is for receiving messages but not alerts.

Step S320: and displaying the aggregation session in the primary session list, wherein the aggregation session can be expanded into a secondary session list comprising all reminding limited sessions.

Step S330: and when the reminding limited conversation comprises the unread message which accords with the first preset rule, highlighting the unread message which accords with the first preset rule in a display area corresponding to the aggregation conversation.

In the message display method provided by the present example embodiment, the reminder limited session may be aggregated to generate an aggregated session; wherein the alert restricted session is for receiving messages but not alerts; only the aggregation session is displayed in the first-level session list, but the reminding limited session is not displayed, so that the display space of the reminding limited session can be reduced, and the display space of other sessions can be improved; the other sessions can be non-reminding limited sessions, and the primary session list comprises aggregation sessions and other sessions; in addition, the reminder limited session may be presented in a secondary session list of the aggregated session, the secondary session list only including the reminder limited session; in addition, when the reminding limited conversation comprises the unread message which accords with the first preset rule, highlighting the unread message which accords with the first preset rule in the display area corresponding to the aggregation conversation; wherein, the unread message which accords with the first preset rule can be understood as an important message in the limited conversation. According to the scheme description, the problem that the user cannot timely know the important message in the reminding limited session can be overcome to a certain extent, and the probability that the user timely knows the important message in the reminding limited session is improved; on the other hand, the problem that display spaces of other important conversations are small due to the fact that reminding limited conversations occupy more display spaces is solved to a certain extent, and then the display spaces of the other important conversations are improved, so that the influence on the processing efficiency of the user for processing the other important conversations is reduced, and the use experience of the user is improved.

The above steps of the present exemplary embodiment will be described in more detail below.

In step S310, aggregating the reminder restricted sessions to generate an aggregated session; wherein the alert restricted session is for receiving messages but not alerts.

In this exemplary embodiment, the reminding limited session is a session that receives a message but does not remind the user, and may also be understood as an unimportant session, and if the user opens the do-not-disturb function for a certain session, the session is the reminding limited session, and the session does not remind the user when receiving a new message. In addition, the reminder restricted session may also be understood as a session that receives instant messaging messages; and, a session that can be understood as being presented in a user interface in the form of a dialog box; and, as an do-not-disturb session, a user can set a session that does not require a message alert as an do-not-disturb session to reduce message interference.

In this example embodiment, the aggregation session may be understood as a session set, where the aggregation session may include one or more reminding limited sessions, after the plurality of reminding limited sessions are aggregated to obtain the aggregation session, the session list shown to the user does not include the plurality of reminding limited sessions but only one aggregation session and other sessions, and the other sessions are not opened with an undisturbed function, and when the user needs to view a message received by the reminding limited session, the session list (i.e., a secondary session list) corresponding to the aggregation session may be entered, that is, the aggregated plurality of reminding limited sessions may be viewed.

In step S320, the aggregation session is presented in the primary session list, and the aggregation session can be expanded into a secondary session list including the reminder-restricted sessions.

In the present exemplary embodiment, before performing the aggregation of the reminding limited sessions, the primary session list includes all sessions, where all sessions refer to the reminding limited sessions and the non-reminding limited sessions; after the reminder limited session aggregation is performed, and the session list includes the aggregated session and the non-reminder limited session.

In this example embodiment, after the aggregation of the reminder limited sessions, the terminal device or the server generates a secondary session list, where the secondary session list only includes all the reminder limited sessions that are aggregated.

In the embodiment of the example, after the user enters the social software, the first level session list is displayed to the user, and the second level session list is displayed after the user clicks the aggregation session window in the first level session list; and the primary session list and the secondary session list are not displayed at the same time.

In step S330, when the limited reminder session includes an unread message meeting the first preset rule, the unread message meeting the first preset rule is highlighted in the display area corresponding to the aggregation session.

In this example embodiment, the display area is disposed in the user interface where the primary session list is located, and is used to display the unread message that meets the first preset rule, where the display area may be a movable area or an unmovable area, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited. If the display area is a movable area, the user can move the display area to any position in the user interface according to the use habit; the user may move the display area through a touch operation (e.g., a long-press operation or a double-click operation, etc.) or a non-touch operation (e.g., a voice control operation), which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In this example embodiment, the display area may further include an area border, where a color of the area border is default to be colorless, and a user may customize a color of the area border as needed.

In this example embodiment, the font display color in the display area may also be automatically adjusted according to the movement of the display area by the user, for example, if the current font color of the display area is black and the current font display environment color (e.g., the background color of the user interface at the position of the display area) is white, when the user switches the display area from the mobile locking state to the mobile state by long pressing for 2s and moves the display area to the position where the user interface color is black, the terminal device or the server may adjust the font color to white according to the detection of the current font display environment color.

As an exemplary embodiment, the first preset rule is that the message includes at least one of a user name, social information related to the user, and work information related to the user.

In this example embodiment, the first preset rule is used to screen all unread messages reminding a restricted session for an unread message including at least one of a user name, social information related to the user, and work information related to the user, so as to be highlighted in the display area; the user name can be a user name of a current login account of the social software and is used for identifying a current user; the message including the social information related to the user may be a message including an "@ username", may also be a message including a username, and may also be information including an interest keyword set by the user, where the interest keyword is used to indicate a field in which the user is interested (e.g., a pet, home, or indoor design, etc.), and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited; the message including the work information related to the user may be a message including a message sent by a target friend (e.g., a company leader or colleague). For example, if the first preset rule is that the message includes a user name, social information related to the user, and work information related to the user. The message may be sent by the company leader and the message content is: @ username, go to my office one trip.

Therefore, by implementing the optional embodiment, the unread messages can be screened according to the first preset rule to determine the messages which are important for the user, and the probability that the user knows the messages in time is improved by highlighting the important messages.

As another exemplary embodiment, highlighting the unread message that meets the first preset rule in the presentation area corresponding to the aggregation session may include the following steps: dynamically highlighting and displaying unread messages which accord with a first preset rule in a display area corresponding to the aggregation session; or, the unread messages meeting the first preset rule are statically highlighted in the display area corresponding to the aggregation session.

In this exemplary embodiment, dynamically highlighting the unread message that meets the first preset rule can further improve the probability that the user knows the message in time, and statically highlighting the unread message that meets the first preset rule can reduce the interference caused by displaying the message to the user. The user may set dynamic highlighting to display the unread messages meeting the first preset rule, or static highlighting to display the unread messages meeting the first preset rule, or perform both dynamic highlighting and static highlighting, for example, first perform floating display and then perform scrolling display, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

Further optionally, dynamically highlighting the unread message meeting the first preset rule in the presentation area corresponding to the aggregation session may include the following steps: and scrolling and displaying the unread messages which accord with the first preset rule in a display area corresponding to the aggregation session.

In this example embodiment, the scrolling may be performed by scrolling the characters in the unread message that meet the first preset rule from left to right in the display area in a manner of displaying a row of characters, or may be performed by scrolling from right to left, or may be performed by scrolling the characters in the message by turning a page, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited.

Still further optionally, the step of statically highlighting the unread message meeting the first preset rule in the presentation area corresponding to the aggregation session may include the steps of: and displaying the unread messages which accord with the first preset rule in a floating mode in a display area corresponding to the aggregation session.

In this exemplary embodiment, the floating display may be to output the unread message meeting the first preset rule in a display area when the message is detected, where the display area may be understood as a floating window, and float on the user interface where the primary conversation list is located.

In this exemplary embodiment, optionally, the method may further include the following steps: the method comprises the steps that the length of an unread message which accords with a first preset rule is detected, and the unread message which accords with the first preset rule is dynamically highlighted or statically highlighted in a display area when the length of the unread message is smaller than the preset length; and displaying the unread messages which accord with the first preset rule by scrolling when the length of the unread messages is larger than or equal to the preset length. Therefore, the display mode can be automatically adjusted according to the length of the message, the probability that the message is incompletely displayed due to the fact that the display mode is not appropriate is reduced, the probability that the user knows the message in time is improved, and the use experience of the user is improved.

As another exemplary embodiment, the manner of highlighting the unread message meeting the first preset rule in the presentation area corresponding to the aggregation session may specifically be:

displaying unread messages which accord with a first preset rule in a display area corresponding to the aggregation session in a character jumping mode; alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

and displaying the unread messages which accord with the first preset rule (for example, randomly changing the font color every 1 s) in a mode of changing the character color according to the preset color change duration in the display area corresponding to the aggregation session.

Therefore, by implementing the optional implementation mode, the unread message meeting the first preset rule can be highlighted, so that the probability that the user timely knows the unread message is improved, the loss of the user due to the fact that the unread message is not timely known is reduced, and the use experience of the user is improved.

Referring to fig. 4-6, fig. 4 schematically illustrates a user interface diagram for presenting a primary session list in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure; FIG. 5 schematically illustrates a user interface diagram after aggregating reminder restricted sessions in accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure; FIG. 6 schematically shows a user interface diagram for presenting a secondary session list in accordance with one embodiment of the present disclosure.

Specifically, fig. 4 shows a primary session list including a plurality of sessions, the session names of which are: the three-in-one method includes the steps of one-out-of-three, a diving group, a fish touching group, a chatting group, a working group, a file transmission assistant and a one-week knot, and the three-in-one corresponds to a head portrait A, a head portrait B corresponding to the diving group, a head portrait C corresponding to the fish touching group, a head portrait D corresponding to the chatting group, a head portrait E corresponding to the working group, a file transmission assistant corresponds to a head portrait F and a one-week knot corresponds to a head portrait G, wherein English letters are only used for distinguishing head portraits of each conversation from each other, the head portrait can be a default head portrait or a custom head portrait, and the embodiment of the disclosure is not limited. As can be seen from the do-not-disturb indicator 403 shown in fig. 4, the session with the session name of one-out-of-three, the diving group, the fish groping group, and the chatting group is a reminder restricted session, and the session with the session name of one-out-of-three, the diving group, the fish groping group, and the chatting group receives a new message and then displays an indicator 401 (e.g., a solid circle) for indicating that the do-not-disturb message is received, by displaying a preset color (e.g., red) on the upper right corner of the session icon; after receiving a new message, the session with the session names of the work group, the file transfer assistant and the summary of the week may display a message number identifier 402 (for example, a solid circle with a number in the center, where the color of the number is different from that of the solid circle) for indicating the number of the received new message through a preset color (for example, red) in the upper right corner of the session icon, and thus, in fig. 4, both the reminder-limited session and the non-reminder-limited session are shown in a primary session list. The user interface can display the number of new messages received by the non-reminding limited session, and only displays the received messages and does not display the number of the messages after reminding the limited session to receive the messages, so that the interference to the user can be reduced, and the use experience of the user is improved.

Further, the user may aggregate the reminding limited sessions with session names of one-out-of-three, diving group, fish group, and chatting group by opening the reminding limited session aggregation function, and may generate an aggregated session, that is, the undisturbed chat in fig. 5, where the undisturbed chat may be defaulted to be a fixed avatar and is not changed with the received new message. The upper right corner of the session icon for the do-not-disturb chat is an identifier 501 (e.g., a solid circle) displaying a preset color (e.g., red) for indicating that the do-not-disturb message is received, and the upper right corner of the session icon with the session name of the workgroup is a message number identifier 502 displaying a preset color (e.g., red) for indicating the number of new messages received. In addition, as shown in fig. 5, fig. 5 illustrates the session names: do not disturb the chat, workgroup, file transfer assistant and summary of the week. By aggregating the reminding limited sessions, the primary session list can be simplified, the amount of information displayed to the user is reduced, the session processing efficiency of the user is improved, and the use experience of the user is improved.

Further, the user may enter the secondary conversation list by clicking on the window where the do-not-disturb chat is located. Shown in the second-level session list are the reminding limited sessions with the aggregated session names of one-out-of-three, diving group, fish group and chatting group, as shown in fig. 6, the second-level session list includes the reminding limited sessions with the session names of one-out-of-three, diving group, fish group and chatting group; after receiving a new message, the reminder-restricted sessions all display an identifier 601 (e.g., a solid circle) in a preset color (e.g., red) for indicating that a do-not-disturb message is received on the upper right corner of the session icon, and the right side of the window of each reminder-restricted session may display an do-not-disturb identifier 602 for indicating that the session is a reminder-restricted session.

In addition, 401, 501, and 601 are the same, that is, they are all used to indicate that the limited session is reminded of receiving the do-not-disturb message; 402 is the same as 502, i.e., both are used to indicate the number of new messages received for the non-alert restricted session; 403 is the same as 602, i.e., both are used to indicate that the session is a reminder-limited session.

It can be seen that, referring to the user interface diagrams shown in fig. 4 to fig. 6, by implementing the technical scheme disclosed in the present application, the problem that the user cannot timely know the important message in the reminding limited session can be overcome to a certain extent, and thus the probability that the user can timely know the important message in the reminding limited session is improved; and the problem that the display space of other important conversations is small due to the fact that the reminding limited conversation occupies a large amount of display space is solved to a certain extent, so that the display space of other important conversations is improved, the influence on the processing efficiency of the user for processing other important conversations is reduced, and the use experience of the user is improved.

Referring to fig. 7 as yet another exemplary embodiment, fig. 7 schematically illustrates a flow diagram for generating an aggregation sub-session presented in a secondary session list according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 7, the message display method may further include step S710 and step S720, in which:

step S710: and when the reminding limited conversation comprises the unread message which accords with the second preset rule, aggregating the unread message which accords with the second preset rule to generate an aggregation sub-conversation.

Step S720: the aggregated sub-session is presented in a secondary session list.

In step S710, when the limited reminder session includes an unread message meeting the second preset rule, aggregating the unread message meeting the second preset rule to generate an aggregated sub-session.

In this example embodiment, the second preset rule is used to screen all unread messages that remind of the restricted session for unread messages that include at least one of a user name, social information related to the user, and work information related to the user.

In this example embodiment, the aggregated sub-session generated by aggregating the unread messages meeting the second preset rule may be displayed in the secondary session list, and the aggregated unread messages may be displayed in the session window of the aggregated sub-session, which may be understood as determining important messages in the messages received by each reminding limited session, and displaying the important messages in the aggregated sub-session in a centralized manner, so that the important messages can be filtered out for the user, and the user can conveniently perform uniform processing on the important messages, so as to improve the processing efficiency of the user on the session, and improve the user experience.

Further optionally, the message display method may further include the steps of: and setting the aggregation sub-session in a secondary session list.

In this example embodiment, optionally, the way of setting the aggregation sub-session in the secondary session list may specifically be: after generating the aggregated sub-session, the secondary session list is updated such that the aggregated sub-session is at a top-level session window position of the secondary session list.

In this exemplary embodiment, the method may further include: and carrying out top locking on the aggregation sub-session in the secondary session list, so that the aggregation sub-session is always positioned at the top-level session window position of the secondary session list.

Therefore, by implementing the optional implementation mode, important messages can be aggregated, and the aggregated sub-session obtained by aggregation is set on top, so that a user can efficiently process session messages, the use experience of the user is improved, and the use viscosity of the user is further improved.

As still another exemplary embodiment, the second preset rule is that the message includes at least one of a user name, social information related to the user, and work information related to the user.

As still another exemplary embodiment, the first preset rule is the same as the second preset rule.

In this example embodiment, if the first preset rule is that the message includes a user name, social information related to the user, and work information related to the user, and the second preset rule is that the message also includes a user name, social information related to the user, and work information related to the user, it may be determined that the first preset rule is the same as the second preset rule. If the first preset rule is the same as the second preset rule, the important messages can be displayed on the user interface where the primary session list is located, so that the user can know the important messages in time, the important messages can be collected in the aggregation sub-sessions of the secondary session list, the user can check the messages according to needs, and the use experience of the user is improved.

In step S720, the aggregation sub-session is presented in the secondary session list.

In this example embodiment, optionally, the manner of displaying the aggregation sub-session in the secondary session list may specifically be: displaying the aggregation sub-session at the top-level session window position of the secondary session list; the size of the session window of the aggregation sub-session may be the same as or different from the size of the session window of other reminding limited sessions (for example, the size of the session window of the aggregation sub-session is larger than the size of the session window of other reminding limited sessions) so as to distinguish the aggregation sub-session from the reminding limited session, and the aggregation sub-session is more striking and can play a role in reminding to a certain extent, so that a user can timely obtain important messages.

Therefore, by implementing the message display method shown in fig. 1, the problem that the user cannot timely know the important message in the reminding limited session can be overcome to a certain extent, and the probability that the user can timely know the important message in the reminding limited session is further improved; and the problem that the display space of other important conversations is small due to the fact that the reminding limited conversation occupies a large amount of display space is solved to a certain extent, so that the display space of other important conversations is improved, the influence on the processing efficiency of the user for processing other important conversations is reduced, and the use experience of the user is improved.

As an exemplary embodiment, the message display method may further include the steps of: determining a session abstract of the aggregated session according to the unread message for reminding the limited session; the session summary comprises a session name and a latest message for reminding the limited session, and the unread message for reminding the limited session comprises the latest message.

In the present example embodiment, the session summary is used to show the latest reminding limited session message or important reminding limited session message, the session summary is displayed in the session window of the aggregated session, and the session window of the aggregated session is in the primary session list. If the reminding limited conversation does not include unread messages meeting the first preset rule, the conversation abstract can show the received latest messages and the conversation names of the reminding limited conversation corresponding to the latest messages; if the reminding limited session comprises an unread message which accords with a first preset rule, the unread message can be understood as an important message in a plurality of unread messages, and the session summary can show the unread message, the session name of the reminding limited session corresponding to the unread message and the message type corresponding to the unread message, such as [ XXX @ YY ], [ XXX message ], [ receipt message ] or [ application for group entry ]; where "XXX" and "YYY" are used to represent user names.

In this example embodiment, the latest message may be understood as the latest reminder limited session message received. In addition, an unread message may be understood as a message that has not been viewed by the user, or may be understood as a message whose message content has not been displayed.

Referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 schematically illustrates a flow diagram for determining a session digest in an aggregated session according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 8, determining the session digest in the aggregated session includes step S800, step S802, step S804, step S806, step S808, step S810, step S812, step S814, step S816, step S818, and step S820, where:

step S800: alerting the restricted session whether there is an unread message.

Step S802: and displaying the session name corresponding to the latest message.

Step S804: and displaying the latest message and the session name corresponding to the latest message.

Step S806: there are important messages in the unread message-somebody mentions me.

Step S808: important messages, star contacts, exist in unread messages.

Step S810: important messages, response receipt messages, exist in the unread messages.

Step S812: important messages-group-entering applications exist in unread messages.

Step S814: a prefix [ XXX @ YYY ] is added to the session summary.

Step S816: a prefix XXX message is added to the session summary.

Step S818: a prefix is added to the session digest [ receipt message ].

Step S820: a prefix is added to the session summary [ group filing ].

Specifically, after the reminding limited session is aggregated, whether the reminding limited session has unread messages or not can be detected, and if the reminding limited session does not have unread messages, a session name corresponding to the latest message is displayed in a session summary; and if the unread messages exist, displaying the latest messages and the session names corresponding to the latest messages.

Further, if there is an important message in the unread message-someone mentions me, a prefix [ XXX @ YYY ] is added to the session summary, where XXX may be the user name of the user who mentions YYY in the unread message, and YYY may be the current login user of the social software on the terminal device; if an important message, namely a star contact, exists in the unread message, a prefix [ XXX message ] is added in the session summary, wherein XXX can be a user name of the company leader, and the star contact can be understood as the target friend (such as the company leader); if an important message, namely a receipt message, exists in the unread message, namely the message which needs the user to reply, adding a prefix [ receipt message ] in the session abstract; if important information-group entering application exists in the unread message, namely other users apply to enter the reminding limited session, a prefix [ group entering application ] is added in the session summary.

In addition, it should be noted that [ XXX @ yyyy ], [ XXX message ], [ receipt message ] or [ group application ] is a message type that the unread message may correspond to, the unread message includes an important message, and according to the message type that the important message corresponds to being displayed in the summary, the user can quickly know the message type of the important message in the received unread message through the session summary, so that the user can process the session, and further improve the user experience of the user.

Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 schematically illustrates a user interface diagram for presenting a session summary of an aggregated session according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 9, fig. 9 illustrates that the session name is: do not disturb the chat, workgroup, file transfer assistant, and the session for a week.

Wherein, the upper right corner of the session icon of the do-not-disturb chat is an identifier 901 (e.g., a solid circle) displaying a preset color (e.g., red) for indicating that the do-not-disturb message is received, the session summary 903 of the do-not-disturb chat is displayed in the session window of the do-not-disturb chat, and the upper right corner of the session icon with the session name of the workgroup is a message number identifier 902 displaying a received new message number through a preset color (e.g., red); where 901 is the same as 401, 501 and 601 and 902 is the same as 402 and 502. In fig. 9, the session summary content of the do-not-disturb chat is: [ receipt chat ] [ @ owner ] [ third of the year ] receives a new message. Wherein, [ receipt chat ] is message type, [ @ owner ] is important message content, [ three-in-one ] is session name, it can be understood that the session with the session name [ three-in-one ] is a reminder limited session in which the latest message is received, and the received message includes [ @ owner ]. In addition, after [ third-to-third ], in addition to outputting the new message mentioned above, the latest message content received by the session with the session name of [ third-to-third ] may also be output, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited.

It can be seen that, by the aggregation session including the session summary shown in fig. 9, part of information about the reminder restricted session can be provided for the user to improve the user experience, thereby improving the user use viscosity.

It can be seen that implementing this alternative embodiment enables the user to learn the partial content of the unread message by displaying the session summary in the window of the aggregated session.

As an exemplary embodiment, the message display method may further include the steps of: and determining the time for reminding the limited session of receiving the latest message as the data change time of the aggregation session.

In this example embodiment, the data change time of the aggregation session is used to indicate the time when the data of the aggregation session is changed for the latest time, and the data change time may be the time when the limited session is reminded to receive the latest message. In addition, optionally, the data change time may also be a time for prompting the restricted session to change the member, or may also be a time for prompting the restricted session to change the session name, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited. In summary, aggregating the data change time of the session may be understood as reminding the data change time corresponding to the session in which the data change occurs most recently in the restricted session, where the data change includes not only receiving a new message, but also a withdrawal message, a member change, a session name change, and the like.

Therefore, by implementing the optional implementation mode, the data change time of the aggregation session can be determined according to the data change time for reminding the limited session, so that the aggregation session is continuously updated, the user can conveniently remind the limited session according to the session summary processing of the aggregation session, and the use experience of the user is further improved.

As an exemplary embodiment, the message display method may further include the steps of: outputting prompt information for indicating that an unread message meeting a first preset rule is received; or outputting a prompt sound effect for indicating that the unread message which accords with the first preset rule is received.

In this example embodiment, the prompt message is used to prompt the user to receive an unread message that meets the first preset rule, and the prompt message may include the new message content or may not include the unread message content that meets the first preset rule. The prompt sound effect is also used for prompting the user to receive the unread message meeting the first preset rule, and the user can output the prompt information or output the prompt sound effect or simultaneously output the prompt information and the prompt sound effect when the message prompt is needed (namely, the unread message meeting the first preset rule is received) according to the requirement setting.

In this exemplary embodiment, optionally, the method may further include: outputting a prompt audio indicating that an unread message is received; the audio may be used only to prompt the user to receive the unread message meeting the first preset rule, or may be used to output the received unread message meeting the first preset rule in a voice form. Therefore, when the user checks the new message in the inconvenient unlocking terminal equipment, the new message is broadcasted by the user voice, so that the user can timely know the new message, the use experience of the user is improved, and the use viscosity of the user is improved.

Therefore, by implementing the optional implementation mode, prompt signals (such as prompt information and prompt sound effect) for prompting the user can be output when the unread message meeting the first preset rule is received, so that the probability that the user knows the new message in time is improved, the user experience is further improved, and the use viscosity of the user is improved.

As an exemplary embodiment, the message display method may further include the steps of: and determining the total number of the unread messages of the reminding limited sessions as the number of the unread messages of the aggregation session.

In this example embodiment, the aggregation session may include one or more alert limited sessions, and if the aggregation session includes a plurality of alert limited sessions, the number of unread messages of the aggregation session is integrated with the number of unread messages of the plurality of alert limited sessions. For example, the aggregation session includes a reminder limited session a, a reminder limited session B, and a reminder limited session C; the number of the unread messages reminding the limited session A is 3, the number of the unread messages reminding the limited session B is 5, and the number of the unread messages reminding the limited session C is 4. Thus, the number of unread messages for an aggregated session may then be 12.

In this exemplary embodiment, optionally, the method may further include: when the number of unread messages of the aggregated session exceeds a preset number (e.g., 50), prompt information for prompting the user to view the unread messages is output.

Therefore, by implementing the optional implementation mode, the number of the unread messages of the aggregated session can be determined according to the number of the unread messages of each reminding limited session, so that a user is reminded to check the unread messages when the number of the unread messages of the aggregated session is large, the use experience of the user is further improved, and the use viscosity of the user is improved.

The session manager may provide a session list data source 1002 for the user. The session list data source 1002 is responsible for the synchronous update work of the session. Session list data source 1002 may provide a user interface 1001 with a data source for a list of sessions presented, as well as various items of information for each session therein. The session list data source 1002 may interact with the alert restricted session aggregation module 1003, and when the alert restricted session aggregation module 1003 is started, the top-level session list 10021 does not include any alert restricted sessions, but instead is a virtual session (i.e., an aggregation session) for aggregating the alert restricted sessions; these alert-restricted sessions may be aggregated into a separate session list for use as a secondary session list (i.e., a secondary session list). The alert limited session aggregation module 1003 is responsible for providing the session list data source 1002 with the virtual session for aggregating the alert limited session and the update logic of the information.

Based on the architecture diagram shown in fig. 10, further, referring to fig. 11, fig. 11 schematically illustrates a sequence diagram for generating an aggregated session from an alert restricted session according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 11, the sequence diagram of generating the aggregation session according to the reminder limited session includes a session list data source, a reminder limited session aggregation module, and a user interface.

Specifically, when a change of session information is detected (for example, a member changes, a new message is received, or a session name changes, etc.), the limited session aggregation module may be notified to update according to the session list data source, and if a certain limited session among the plurality of limited sessions is notified to receive a new message, the number of unread messages changes, and the limited session aggregation module may be notified to update the total number of unread messages of the limited session aggregation module; further, updated aggregated session information (e.g., number of unread messages, number of members, etc.) may be fed back to the session list data source; and then, the user interface can be informed to update the session information according to the session list data source, and the user interface is triggered to refresh the session information, so that the user can know the received unread information through the user interface in time, and the use experience of the user is improved.

It should be noted that although the various steps of the methods of the present disclosure are depicted in the drawings in a particular order, this does not require or imply that these steps must be performed in this particular order, or that all of the depicted steps must be performed, to achieve desirable results.
