The system is an example illustrating a software structure of the electronic device 100.

Fig. 2 shows a software system block diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, a software system 200 of an electronic device may employ a layered architecture. The layered architecture divides software into a plurality of layers, each layer comprises a large number of sub-modules or subsystems, and the layers communicate with each other through software interfaces.

In some embodiments, the software system 200 may be divided into four layers, an Application (APP) layer 210, an application framework (framework) layer 220, a system runtime library layer (including a system library and an Android runtime (Android runtime)) 230, and a kernel (kernel) layer 240, from top to bottom.

The application layer 210 may include a series of application packages. As shown in fig. 2, the application package may include camera, gallery, calendar, phone call, map, navigation, WLAN, bluetooth, music, video, short message, etc. applications. The application program is mainly in the aspect of user interface (user interface), and is usually written by calling an interface of an application program framework layer by using a JAVA language.

The application framework layer 220 is a series of services and systems hidden behind each application, and is used to provide an Application Programming Interface (API) and a programming framework for the application of the application layer 210. The application framework layer includes a number of predefined functions.

The notification manager (notification manager) allows the application to display notification information in the status bar, can be used to convey notification-type messages, can disappear automatically after a short dwell, and does not require user interaction. Such as a notification manager used to inform download completion, message alerts, etc. The notification manager may also be a notification that appears in the form of a chart or scrollbar text in a status bar at the top of the system, such as a notification of a running application in the background, or a notification that appears on the screen in the form of a dialog window. For example, prompting text information in the status bar, sounding a prompt tone, vibrating the electronic device, flashing an indicator light, etc. The notification manager can also be used for carrying out message reminding and the like on a screen-off display interface in a chart form.

The system runtime library layer (libraries) 230 may be divided into two parts, namely a system library and an Android runtime.

An Android runtime (Android runtime), namely an Android running environment, comprises a core library and a virtual machine. The Android runtime is responsible for scheduling and managing an Android system.

The core library comprises two parts: one part is a function which needs to be called by java language, and the other part is a core library of android.

The application layer 210 and the application framework layer 220 run in a virtual machine. The virtual machine executes java files of the application layer 210 and the application framework layer 220 as binary files. The virtual machine is used for performing the functions of object life cycle management, stack management, thread management, safety and exception management, garbage collection and the like.

It should be understood that the embodiments of the present application may be applicable

Or operating systems such as the hong meng (harmony). Here, only the software system 200 is used

The system is illustrated by way of example.

For convenience of understanding, the following embodiments of the present application will specifically describe a message prompting method provided in the embodiments of the present application by taking an electronic device with a structure shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2 as an example, and combining the accompanying drawings and an application scenario.

FIG. 3 provides a set of Graphical User Interface (GUI) diagrams. For example, after the user opens the notification function of a certain application, the prompt mode of the message may be set in the notification setting interface 310 as shown in (a) of fig. 3. The notification settings interface 310 may include one or more of a "banner" control 301, a "desktop icon corner mark" control 302, a "notification highlight prompt" control 303, and a "status bar display notification icon" control 304 for the user to select the manner in which to prompt the message.

For example, if the user opens "banner" control 301, as shown in FIG. 3 (b), the message pushed by the application is presented to the user in the form of a prompt box 305. The prompt box 305 may display the specific content of the message or hide the specific content of the message, and only prompts an application to push the message. The prompt box 305 may disappear by itself after a short dwell, or may be displayed until the user views the message.

For another example, if the user opens the "desktop icon corner mark" control 302, the number of messages will be displayed on the desktop icon of the corresponding application when the application pushes the messages.

For another example, if the user opens the "notification screen-up prompt" control 303, when the electronic device receives a message pushed by an application in the screen-off state, a screen of the electronic device may be lit up to prompt the user.

For another example, if the user opens the "status bar display notification icon" control 304, as shown in (c) of fig. 3, when the application pushes a message, the icon of the corresponding application will be displayed in the status bar 306.

Of course, the user may be prompted by other means, such as flashing an indicator light when receiving the notification, or ringing a ring alert when receiving the notification, and the like, and the details are not described herein. It should be understood that the names of the interfaces and the controls are merely exemplary, and in other embodiments, the interfaces and the controls may have other names, which are not limited herein.

Generally, if a user wants to view messages pushed by an application, the user can view the messages through a downslide notification bar. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3 (d), the information pushed by all applications is included in the downslide notification bar 320, and the information may be classified and arranged according to the application category and the pushing time, as if the information pushed by an application is collectively displayed, and the information is arranged according to the sequence of the pushing time.

With the development of electronic devices and operating systems, more and more applications use the notification function as a way of pushing messages. When a large amount of messages are pushed, multiple messages of multiple applications are displayed in a mixed mode, the messages really concerned by the user are often submerged, the current notification function cannot prompt the importance degree of the messages, the user cannot find the messages really concerned by the user in time, and user experience is poor. Because there is no proper and authoritative identification to display the importance degree of the notification, some rogue applications may directly display the notification as an important notification on the title of the notification in order to attract the attention of the user, and the user often has some spam advertisement information after the user is started, which seriously affects the user experience.

Therefore, the embodiment of the application provides a message prompting method and electronic equipment, when the electronic equipment pushes application messages, message pushing prompting and message importance degree prompting can be performed, a user can conveniently find messages concerned by the user in time, and user experience is improved.

It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, "notification" and "message" may be understood to express the same meaning, and in some embodiments, "notification message" and "push message" may also be used to express the same meaning.

Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a graphical user interface for providing an example of a message prompt method according to an embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 4 (a), when the user receives the notification message, a prompt ball 401 appears on an Always On Display (AOD) interface 410 of the electronic device, which is used to prompt the user that there is a message push.

In this embodiment, the prompt ball 401 does not display the specific content of the message, and is only used to remind the user that there is a message pushed or to remind the user that there is an unprocessed message.

The screen-off display means that when the electronic equipment is in a locked state, a partial area of the screen is kept constantly on to display information such as time and notification. Referring to fig. 4 (a), only a part of the pixels on the AOD interface 410 are lit for displaying the time, date and cue ball 401, while the remaining part of the pixels are in an off state, displaying pure black content.

In this embodiment of the application, the electronic device may always display the AOD interface 410 in the locked state, and when there is a message to be pushed, the prompt ball 401 may be directly displayed in the AOD interface 410. Or when the electronic device is in a locked state, the screen is in a closed state, and when a message is pushed, the screen displays the AOD interface 410 and displays the prompt ball 401 in the AOD interface 410.

It should be noted that the term "appearing cue ball" as used herein refers to a message that has not been processed (e.g., viewed, deleted, ignored, etc.) by the user before. That is, the user has processed all messages or no message push before receiving a new message, and when the new message is pushed, the cue ball 401 appears in the AOD interface 410. If a message is pushed to the user before, but the user is not processing the message, since the prompt ball 401 is already displayed in the AOD interface 410 before, the prompt ball 401 is still displayed in the AOD interface 410 after a new message is pushed, but the display attribute of the prompt ball 401 may change, which will be described in conjunction with other figures and will not be described in detail here.

In one embodiment, when there are multiple messages pushed, AOD interface 410 may display only one cue ball 401, indicating that at least one pushed message is not processed by the user. Wherein the display attributes (e.g., color, shape, size, grayscale, transparency, position, pattern, numeric indication, textual indication, speed of movement, etc.) of the cue ball 401 may indicate the most important message of the messages not processed by the user.

For example, the notification message may be divided into different levels of importance, and the display attributes of the cue ball designated by the messages of different levels of importance may be different. For example, messages of different importance may be indicated by specifying that the cue ball displays different colors (e.g., red, orange, blue). Alternatively, messages of different importance may be indicated by specifying that the cue ball displays a different shape (e.g., pentagon, square, triangle). Alternatively, messages of different degrees of importance may be indicated by specifying that the cue ball display different sizes. Alternatively, messages of different degrees of importance may be indicated by specifying that the prompt ball is of different grayscale or transparency (e.g., 30% transparency, 50% transparency, 80% transparency). Alternatively, messages of different degrees of importance may be indicated by specifying that the cue ball is located in a different position in the screen. Alternatively, messages of different importance may be indicated by specifying that the cue ball displays different patterns or has different numerical identifiers, textual identifiers. Alternatively, messages of different degrees of importance are indicated by specifying how fast the cue ball is moving.

In this embodiment, the display attribute of the cue ball 401 displayed in the AOD interface 410 corresponds to the message with the highest importance degree among the pushed messages.

For example, the user has turned on the notification function of a phone application, a weather application, and a news application, where the message pushed by the phone application is the most important; the message importance degree of the weather application push is medium, and the message importance degree of the news application push is minimum. Accordingly, if the message pushed by the telephone application is included in the message not processed by the user, the color of the prompt ball 401 is red. If the message not processed by the user includes the message pushed by the weather application but not the message pushed by the telephone application, the color of the prompt ball 401 is orange. If the message not processed by the user includes the message pushed by the news application but does not include the message pushed by the phone application and the weather application, the color of the cue ball 401 is blue.

In other words, the color of the cue ball 401 may represent the importance of the message. When there are a plurality of messages pushed, the color of the cue ball 401 is displayed in the color designated by the message of the highest importance among the plurality of messages.

The prompt ball 401 may have a fixed position on the screen, may also move at a plurality of fixed positions according to a certain rule, and may also randomly walk on the screen like a bubble, and is rebounded when meeting the edge of the screen, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

The user may perform a click operation (e.g., a single click or a double click) on the prompt ball 401 as shown in (a) of fig. 4, and in response to the click operation, the screen of the electronic device may display an unlock interface.

As shown in fig. 4 (b), in response to a click operation of the prompt ball 401 by the user, the screen displays an unlock interface 420, where the unlock interface 420 still displays the prompt ball 401.

The unlock interface 420 is primarily used to identify and verify the identity of the user. For example, the unlocking interface 420 may include text information, pattern information, numerical information, etc. for prompting the user to identify. For example, the unlocking interface 420 displays prompting words "unlock with fingerprint or slide up", "face ID", "input password", "gesture password", etc., or displays a fingerprint pattern, a nine-point pattern, a numeric dial, etc., thereby prompting the user to perform identity authentication using fingerprint, face, numeric password, or gesture password.

In one embodiment, the unlock interface 420 further includes information prompting the user to unlock the view message, for example, as shown in (b) of fig. 4, a text message 402 of "unlock view" is displayed on the prompt ball 401.

As shown in fig. 4 (c), when the user completes the identity authentication, the screen displays a message preview interface 430, and the message preview interface 430 includes one or more message balls, such as

message balls

403a, 403b, 403c, 403d, 403e, and the like. The message preview interface 430 is a transition interface for the user to enter the main interface (e.g., a cell phone desktop) after unlocking, and can be used for the user to process (e.g., view, delete, ignore) the notification message, and the like.

In one embodiment, each message ball corresponds to an application, i.e., one message ball is used to prompt a message pushed by one application. Referring to (c) of fig. 4,

message balls

403a, 403b, 403c, 403d, 403e correspond to a mail application, a text message application, a weather application, a sports health application, a browser application, respectively. Illustratively, each message ball may include an icon and/or application name for the corresponding application.

Similar to the cue ball 401, display attributes of the message ball (e.g., color, shape, size, grayscale, transparency, position, pattern, numerical designation, textual designation, speed of movement, etc.) may indicate the importance of the message. To enhance the user experience, the display attributes of the message ball and the cue ball for indicating the importance of the message may be the same, e.g., each employing a color attribute to indicate messages of different importance.

In one embodiment, the display attributes of the message ball may correspond to an application. In other words, the user may classify the importance levels of the messages according to the application types, so that all messages pushed by an application are messages with the same importance level, and thus the message ball corresponding to the application may be displayed according to the display attribute specified by the application.

For example, the messages pushed by the short message application set by the user are all messages with the highest importance level, and accordingly, the short message application is the application with the highest importance level. When the short message application has message pushing, the color of the message ball corresponding to the short message application is displayed in the color (for example, red) designated by the application with the highest importance level.

In another embodiment, the display attribute of the message ball may correspond to the message with the highest level of importance among the messages pushed by the application. In other words, the user can set the message pushed by a certain application to different importance levels, for example, the importance level of a part of the message is the highest, the importance level of a part of the message is the middle, and the importance level of a part of the message is the lowest. The message ball corresponding to the application is thus displayed in accordance with the display attribute specified by the message with the highest importance level among the messages pushed by the application.

Still take the color attribute of the message ball to indicate the importance level of the message as an example, for example, the user sets the importance level of the current affairs message to be the highest, the importance level of the sports message to be the middle, and the importance level of the economic message to be the lowest in the news application. When the news application pushes messages, if the pushed messages comprise sports type messages and economic type messages, the color of the message ball corresponding to the news application is displayed in the color (such as orange) specified by the sports type messages with the central importance level.

In the case where the message balls correspond to the applications one-to-one, the message balls may display different attributes because of the different degrees of importance of the messages pushed by the applications. According to the display attribute of the message ball, the user can conveniently and quickly find out important applications and important messages.

The user may perform a clicking operation (e.g., single-click or double-click) on the message ball as shown in (c) of fig. 4, and in response to the clicking operation, the screen of the electronic device may display the clicked message ball and a message prompted by the message ball on the message preview interface 430.

As shown in (d) in fig. 4, in response to the user's click operation on the message ball 403b, an enlarged message ball 403b is displayed in the message preview interface 430, together with the message list 404 prompted by the message ball 403 b. From the message list 404, the user can view the specific content of each message in the list.

For convenience of description, in the embodiment of the present application, the message preview interface 430 shown in fig. 4 (d) is referred to as a message list display interface, and the message preview interface 430 shown in fig. 4 (c) is referred to as a message ball display interface.

Taking the message ball 403b corresponding to the short message application as an example, as shown in fig. 4 (d), the message list 404 includes short messages from other users pushed by the short message application. It is understood that the two messages shown in the figure are merely exemplary, and in practical applications, the message list 404 may include one or more messages, and the region for displaying the messages may display some or all of the messages in the message list. When the area for presenting messages fails to present all messages, the user can view hidden messages by sliding the message list or dragging the scroll bar.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the graphic and/or size of the prompt ball 401 and the message ball in the message preview interface 430 may be the same or different. From the perspective of user experience, the prompt ball and the message ball can be designed into the same figure, for example, both are bubble-shaped or balloon-shaped. In some embodiments, the message ball may be formed by the cue ball 401 splitting. It is understood that the division of the cue ball into the message balls is merely an example of a display effect, and the transition effect from the cue ball to the message ball is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application.

It should also be noted that the control or interface element on AOD interface 410 for prompting the user of a push message may also have other names, and "prompt ball" is merely an exemplary name. In the embodiment of the present application, the term "prompting ball" should be understood in a broad sense, that is, in order to implement a control or an interface element for prompting a user of a function of pushing a message, the name does not limit the shape of the control or the interface element to be a ball. For example, the control or interface element may also be cloud-shaped, petal-shaped, drop-shaped, and so on.

Similarly, the controls or interface elements on the message preview interface 430 that are responsive to user manipulation to facilitate user handling of notification messages may also have other names, with "message ball" being merely an exemplary name. In the embodiment of the present application, the "message ball" should be understood in a broad sense, that is, it is a control or interface element used by a user for responding to a user operation in the process of processing a notification message, and the name does not limit the shape of the control or interface element to be a ball. For example, the control or interface element may also be cloud-shaped, petal-shaped, drop-shaped, and so on.

For convenience of understanding, in the following embodiments of the present application, the message prompting method provided by the present application will be described by taking a prompting ball and a message ball as bubble shapes as examples. In some embodiments, the cue ball and the message ball may be collectively referred to as a bubble ball, and thus when the following embodiments refer to the description of a bubble ball, it is understood to include a cue ball displayed on an AOD interface and a message ball displayed on a message preview interface.

It should be further noted that the manner in which the message preview interface 430 displays the message list in fig. 4 (d) is merely exemplary, and in some other implementations, the message list and/or the clicked message ball may be displayed in other manners.

Fig. 5 and fig. 6 are schematic diagrams illustrating a graphical user interface of an example message prompting method according to an embodiment of the present application. The operation of the user in viewing the message and the response of the electronic device will be described with reference to fig. 5 and 6.

In one embodiment, the user may perform operations to delete messages, view messages, while viewing the message list 404.

As shown in (a) of fig. 5, the user may perform a slide operation on a certain message, such as a right slide, a left slide, a down slide, or an up slide, etc. In response to this operation, the message is deleted in the message list 404 as shown in (b) of fig. 5. Taking the example of the message list 404 including the message 1 and the message 2, when the user performs a slide operation on the message 2, in response to the operation, the message 2 in the message list 404 is deleted, leaving the message 1.

Alternatively, if all the messages in the message list 404 are deleted, after the user performs the sliding operation on the last message, in response to the sliding operation, the electronic device may return to the message ball display interface shown in fig. 4 (c). Since all the messages gathered by the message balls viewed by the user are deleted, the returned message ball display interface does not include the message ball viewed by the user.

For example, before the user views the message list 404, the message ball display interface may be a message ball display interface 460 as shown in (c) of fig. 6, and after the user deletes all the aggregated messages in one of the message balls, the returned message ball display interface may be a message ball display interface 470 as shown in (d) of fig. 6. In other words, after the user deletes all the messages in the message list 404, the electronic device returns to the previous user interface.

As shown in (c) of fig. 5, the user may perform a click operation on a certain message, such as a single click or a double click. In response to this operation, as shown in (d) of fig. 5, the screen may display an application interface 440 corresponding to the piece of message, and the application interface 440 may display the specific content of the message.

Still taking the example that the message list 404 includes the message 1 and the message 2, when the user performs a click operation on the message 1, in response to the click operation, the electronic device may start or run an application corresponding to the message 1, and display an application interface where the message 1 is located. In the application interface, message 1 is displayed.

In one embodiment, after the user has viewed the message list 404, a return operation may be performed.

As shown in fig. 6 (a), the user may perform a click operation on an area other than the message list 404 (i.e., a non-message display area) in the message list display interface 450, for example, click on an area other than the message list 404 within the message ball, or click on an area other than the message list 404 within the entire interface. In response to this operation, the electronic apparatus returns to the upper level interface, i.e., the message ball display interface 460, as shown in fig. 6 (b).

In one embodiment, the bulk delete of messages may be performed before or after the user has viewed the message list 404.

As shown in (c) of fig. 6, the user may perform a sliding operation or a dragging operation on a message ball (e.g., the message ball 403 d) in the message ball display interface 460, for example, sliding on the message ball or dragging the message ball to the edge of the screen. In response to this operation, the message ball 403d disappears in the message ball display interface 460, as shown in (d) in fig. 6, and is displayed as a message ball display interface 470. Accordingly, the message corresponding to the message ball 403d is deleted entirely. It should be noted that, the message being deleted refers to the message being deleted from the message ball, that is, the message ball does not prompt the push of the message.

Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a graphical user interface of another message prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present application. Other implementations of the message list display interface are described below in conjunction with fig. 7.

As shown in (a) of fig. 7, the message ball display interface 510 may be an interface after the user completes authentication, and may be, for example, an interface displayed after the user performs an unlocking operation as shown in (b) of fig. 4. The message ball display interface 510 includes one or more message balls, such as

message balls

501, 502, 503, 504, 505, etc. that respectively correspond to an athletic health application, a mailbox application, a weather application, a text message application, and a browser application.

The user may perform a clicking operation (e.g., single-click or double-click) on the message ball as shown in (a) of fig. 7, and in response to the clicking operation, the electronic device may enter the message list display interface 520 and display the clicked message ball and the message converged by the message ball on the interface.

As shown in fig. 7 (b), in response to a click operation of the message ball 502 by the user, the enlarged message ball 502 and the message list 506 prompted by the message ball 502 are displayed in the message list display interface 520. Since the message ball 502 corresponds to the mailbox application, the message pushed by the mailbox application is gathered in the message list 506.

Unlike the message list display interface shown in (d) of fig. 4, in the message list display interface 520 shown in (b) of fig. 7, the shape of the message ball 502 that is enlarged may be different from the shape of the message ball 502 in the message ball display interface 510. For example, the message ball 502 shown in (a) of fig. 7 may have a circular shape, and the message ball 502 shown in (b) of fig. 7 may have a square shape. Thus, when the message list 506 is displayed in the message ball 502 shown in fig. 7 (b), the message ball 502 has a shape corresponding to the shape of the message list 506, and more message contents can be displayed in the message display area.

It should be noted that the message balls may have the same shape (for example, all are circular, and only have different sizes) in different display interfaces, or may have different shapes according to actual situations, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. It should be further noted that, in the process that the user performs an operation on the message ball to view the message list, the clicked message ball may be individually enlarged, or may be formed by aggregating all message balls, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention. Since this is merely an example of a display effect, the transition effect between different interfaces is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Fig. 8 and fig. 9 are schematic diagrams illustrating a graphical user interface of another message prompting method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Other implementations of the message ball display interface and the message list display interface are described below in conjunction with fig. 8 and 9.

As shown in fig. 8 (a), the message ball display interface 610 may be an interface after the user completes authentication, and may be, for example, an interface displayed after the user performs an unlocking operation as shown in fig. 4 (b). The message ball display interface 610 includes one or more message balls.

In one embodiment, each message ball corresponds to multiple applications, i.e. one message ball is used to prompt messages pushed by multiple applications. For example, referring to (a) of fig. 8, a message ball 601 may correspond to a mail application, a phone application, and a text message application, a message ball 602 may correspond to a sports health application and a shopping application, a message ball 603 may correspond to a weather application and a map application, and a message ball 604 may correspond to a browser application and a video application. Optionally, each message ball may include an icon and/or an application name of the corresponding application.

Here, the applications to which each message ball corresponds may have the same importance level, so that the corresponding message ball may be displayed according to the display attribute designated by the corresponding application. Alternatively, the notification messages corresponding to each message ball have the same importance level, so that the corresponding message ball can be displayed according to the attribute information designated by the corresponding message.

Taking the message ball 601 shown in (a) of fig. 8 as an example, the user may set all messages pushed by the mailbox application, the telephone application and the short message application to be messages of the same importance level, where the message ball 601 is used to indicate that one or more of the mailbox application, the telephone application and the short message application has pushed a message and to indicate the importance level (e.g., the highest importance level) of the messages pushed by the mailbox application, the telephone application and the short message application. The message ball 601 can be displayed according to display attributes specified by a mailbox application, a telephone application and a short message application.

In some embodiments, the user may set the importance level of a portion of the messages to be a, the importance level of a portion of the messages to be B, the importance level of a portion of the messages to be C, and so on, in all of the messages pushed. The message ball 601 is used to indicate a message with an importance level of a, and the other message balls are used to indicate messages with importance levels of B, C, and the like. The message ball 601 is displayed in accordance with the display attribute designated by the message whose importance level is a. That is to say, in this case, since messages pushed by one application may have different importance levels, the messages prompted by the message ball 601 may include some or all of the messages pushed by the mailbox application, the telephone application, and the short message application, but all of the messages are messages with an importance level a, and the other message balls may include messages with importance levels B and C of the messages pushed by the mailbox application, the telephone application, and the short message application. Thus, if an application pushes messages of different importance levels, the application's icon and/or name may appear in multiple message balls.

In some other embodiments, the message balls may correspond to a plurality of applications, the messages pushed by the plurality of applications having different importance levels, and the corresponding message balls may be displayed according to display attributes designated by the message with the highest importance level among the messages pushed by the corresponding applications.

Still taking the message ball 601 shown in fig. 8 (a) as an example, the message ball 601 is used to prompt one or more applications of a mailbox application, a telephone application and a short message application to push a message, where the messages pushed by the same application may have different importance levels. The message ball 601 can be displayed according to the display attribute designated by the message with the highest importance level among all messages pushed by the mailbox application, the telephone application and the short message application.

When the message ball corresponds to a plurality of applications, a user can conveniently and quickly find out important applications and important messages through the display attribute of the message ball, and can preview and check all messages of the same application or all messages of the same importance level at one time.

The user may perform a click operation (e.g., a single click or a double click) on the message ball as shown in fig. 8 (a), and in response to the click operation, the electronic device may display the clicked message ball and a message prompted by the message ball on the message list display interface 620.

As shown in (b) of fig. 8, in response to a click operation of the message ball 601 by the user, an enlarged message ball 601 is displayed in the message list display interface 620, together with a message list 605 prompted by the message ball 601. Wherein the message list 605 includes messages pushed by a mailbox application, a telephone application and a short message application.

In fig. 8, the screen may directly display a message list 605 in response to a user's click operation on a message ball 601. The message ball 601 corresponds to a plurality of applications, and the message list 605 can display all messages pushed by the plurality of applications. In other embodiments, the user may perform other operations after clicking on the message ball 601, and then display the message list 605.

For example, as shown in fig. 9, a user may perform a click operation on a message ball 601 as shown in (a) of fig. 9, and in response to the click operation, the electronic device may display a plurality of sub-message balls, for example,

sub-message balls

601a, 601b, 601c, on a message ball display interface 610, where each sub-message ball in the plurality of sub-message balls corresponds to one application, and all applications corresponding to the plurality of sub-message balls are multiple applications corresponding to the message ball 601. That is, the message ball 601 corresponds to a plurality of applications, and when the message ball 601 is clicked, the electronic device may display a sub-message ball corresponding to each of the plurality of applications. Therefore, the user can conveniently select to view the messages pushed by a certain application.

The user may perform a click operation on a sub message ball, for example, the sub message ball 601b, as shown in fig. 9 (b), and in response to the click operation, the electronic device may display the clicked sub message ball and a message prompted by the sub message ball on the message list display interface 620. As shown in (c) of fig. 9, a sub message ball 601b and a message list 605 are displayed in the message list display interface 620, where the message list 605 includes messages pushed by an application (e.g., a short message application shown in the figure) corresponding to the sub message ball 601 b.

In the embodiment of the present application, the sub message ball corresponding to one application may be the same as or different from the message balls corresponding to a plurality of applications in terms of the graphic and/or size. In some embodiments, the sub-message spheres may be formed by message sphere splitting. It is understood that the division of the message ball into the sub-message balls is merely an example of a display effect, and the transition effect from the message ball to the sub-message balls is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application.

In addition, the "sub message ball" is merely an exemplary name, and the control a corresponding to a plurality of applications may further become a plurality of controls B corresponding to the applications one to one, respectively, and the name does not limit that the shape of the control B is a ball, and does not limit the transition effect from the control a to the control B. In practice, a "sub-message ball" may be considered a message ball corresponding to an application.

Similar to the embodiment described in fig. 4, the sub-message ball corresponds to an application, and may be displayed according to a display attribute specified by the corresponding application, or according to a display attribute specified by a message with the highest importance level.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment shown in fig. 8 or fig. 9, the message ball may correspond to one application or may correspond to multiple applications, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. In other words, in the message ball display interface, a part of the message balls may respectively correspond to one application, and a part of the message balls may respectively correspond to a plurality of applications, and may be specifically designed according to the application or the message importance level classification. In the embodiment shown in fig. 9, as shown in (b) of fig. 9, if the message ball corresponds to an application, after the user performs a click operation on the message ball, the electronic device may directly display the message list display interface 620 shown in (c) of fig. 9 in response to the click operation without displaying any more sub message balls.

As mentioned above, the message ball can be used to display the importance of the message, and the user can conveniently and quickly find out important messages through the display attribute of the message ball.

In one implementation, the importance of the message may be indicated by a color attribute of the message ball. For example, referring to fig. 4 to 9, the message may be represented by different hues, values or saturations of the message ball, and the importance of the message may be different. For example, the more saturated the color or higher the lightness of the message ball, the more important the message is.

In another implementation, the importance of the message may be indicated by a location attribute of the message ball. Illustratively, referring to fig. 10 (a), the message may be represented in different degrees of importance by different positions of the message ball. For example, the closer the message ball is located to the bottom of the screen, the more important the message is.

In another implementation, the importance of the message may be indicated by a shape attribute of the message ball. Illustratively, referring to (b) of fig. 10, the message may be represented by different degrees of importance by different sizes of the message ball. The larger the message ball, the more important the message is.

In yet another implementation, the importance of the message may be indicated by a text attribute of the message ball. Illustratively, referring to (c) of fig. 10, the degree of importance of a message may be represented by displaying different text on the message ball. For example, the words "high/medium/low", "important/generally important/unimportant" and the like are indicated on the message ball to indicate messages of different levels of importance. Alternatively, the letter "H/M/L" or the number "1/2/3", "3/2/1" and the like are indicated on the message ball to indicate messages of different levels of importance.

It should be understood that the importance of the message may also be indicated by other aspects of the message ball, or attributes that combine aspects, and will not be described in detail here. In the embodiment of the application, through the intuitiveness of the attribute information of the message ball, a user can quickly find important messages from numerous messages, and the user experience is improved.

In some embodiments, the message ball may display the number of messages in addition to the importance of the message. For example, as shown in (d) of fig. 10, the message ball may prompt the number of messages pushed by the corresponding application. When the message ball corresponds to a plurality of applications, the message ball can prompt the sum of the number of messages pushed by the plurality of applications and/or display the number of messages pushed by each application in the plurality of applications.

Fig. 11 is a schematic diagram of a graphical user interface of another message prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present application. Other implementations of the cue ball on the AOD interface are described below in conjunction with fig. 11.

In the above embodiment, as shown in fig. 4 (a), the AOD interface includes a prompt ball for indicating that at least one push message is not processed by the user, and may also be used for indicating the message with the highest importance level in the messages that are not processed by the user. For example, the display attribute of the cue ball is displayed in accordance with the display attribute designated by the message with the highest importance level among the pushed messages. It will be appreciated that this manner of indicating the importance of a message is based on the display attributes that the user knows are specified by all levels of importance. That is, the user needs to know the attribute information of the cue ball designated by each message of the importance level, such as the message of the highest importance level (e.g., very important message) designating the cue ball to display red, the message of the middle importance level (e.g., general important message) designating the cue ball to display yellow, and the message of the lowest importance level (e.g., unimportant message) designating the cue ball to display blue. Thus, when the cue ball displays the attributes specified by messages of a certain level of importance, the user knows which level the most important message is among the pushed messages. For example, the cue ball displays yellow, and the user knows that the general important message specifies that the cue ball displays yellow, the user can know that the message with the highest importance degree in the pushed messages is the general important message, and the importance degree grade is in the middle.

In other embodiments provided by embodiments of the present application, the cue ball displayed in the AOD interface can be used to indicate not only the most important message among the messages that are not processed by the user, but also the level of the message in all the importance levels.

As shown in fig. 11 (a), the cue ball 701 may be in the form of an arrow target, i.e., concentric rings of circles of different radii centered on the same circle. The number of concentric circles can indicate the total number of grades of importance, such as five grades of A, B, C, D and E. Different radii of the concentric circles indicate different levels of importance. The smaller the concentric circle radius, the higher (or lower) the indicated importance level. For example, for the message with the highest importance level among the pushed messages, if the importance level is B, the concentric circle for indicating the level B is highlighted, for example, in a different color, gray scale, transparency, etc. from the other concentric circles when the user is prompted. Here, the radius of the concentric circles is a fixed value, which may be default by the system or set by the user, and the radius of the concentric circles is not changed during use as long as there is no manual reset.

As shown in fig. 11 (b), cue ball 702 may be in the form of a pie chart. The number of parts divided by the pie chart can indicate the total number of grades of importance, such as four grades of A, B, C and D. Different fractions of shares indicate different importance levels. The greater the share fraction, the higher (or lower) the indicated importance level. For example, for the message with the highest importance level among the pushed messages, if the importance level is a, the share indicating the a level is highlighted when the user is prompted. Here, the share ratio is a fixed value, such as fixed (1/2.

As shown in fig. 11 (c), cue ball 703 may be in the form of a ring diagram. Wherein the number of stop lines in the ring graph can indicate the total number of grades of importance, such as four grades of A, B, C and D. Starting from the same starting point, different arc angles corresponding to the stop line indicate different importance levels, that is, the positions of the tails of the dark-colored parts on the annular diagram are different and are used for indicating different importance levels. The greater the angle of the arc from the start point to the stop line (i.e., the dark portion), the higher (or lower) the indicated level of importance. For example, the arc angles of 360 °, 270 °, 180 °, and 90 ° correspond to four levels a, B, C, and D, respectively. For example, for a message with the highest importance level among the pushed messages, if the importance level thereof is B, a 270 ° arc indicating the B level is highlighted when the user is prompted. Here, the arc angles corresponding to different importance levels are fixed values, for example, fixed values (360 °, 270 °, 180 °, 90 °), and the fixed values may be default by the system or set by the user, and as long as the fixed values are not reset manually, the arc angles corresponding to a certain importance level will not change during the use process.

As shown in fig. 11 (d), the cue ball 704 may be in the form of a dispersion ball. The number of the dispersion balls can indicate the total number of grades with importance degrees, such as four grades of A, B, C and D. The number of the highlighted dispersion balls is different, and different importance degree grades can be indicated. The greater the number of discrete balls highlighted, the higher (or lower) the level of importance indicated. For example, for the message with the highest importance level among the pushed messages, if the importance level thereof is B, 3 scatter balls are highlighted when the user is prompted.

That is to say, the cue ball displayed in the AOD interface may display all preset importance levels, and the relative importance of the message with the highest importance level among the pushed messages may be further embodied by setting the position, size, area ratio, and the like of the cue ball.

In some embodiments, the cue balls on the AOD interface, such as cue ball 401 shown in FIG. 4, cue balls 701-704 shown in FIG. 11, may also display the number of messages. The prompting ball may display the number of all pushed messages, or the number of messages with the highest importance degree in the pushed messages, or both, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In some embodiments, the display attribute of the highlighted concentric circle, portion, circular arc or dispersed sphere may be displayed according to the display attribute specified by the message with the highest importance level in the push message, or according to a default display attribute, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In the embodiment of the application, the prompting ball can prompt all the divided importance degree levels and highlight the importance degree level of the message with the highest importance degree in the pushed message, so that the relative importance of the message with the highest importance degree in the pushed message can be intuitively determined by a user on the AOD interface, and whether the message needs to be checked or not is determined. Particularly, under the condition that the importance degree grades are divided more, the user does not need to remember the corresponding relation between each importance degree grade and the display attribute of the prompt ball, the relative importance of the message can be judged through the prompt ball, and the user experience is improved.

In the above embodiments, the prompting ball introduced in the AOD interface may prompt the information related to the most important message in the push messages, and in other embodiments, the prompting ball may prompt the information related to all push messages, which is described below with reference to fig. 12.

Fig. 12 is a schematic diagram of a graphical user interface of another message prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 12 (a), the cue ball 705 may be in the form of an arrow target. The number of concentric circles may indicate the total number of levels of importance, such as five levels a, B, C, D, and E. Different radii of the concentric circles indicate different levels of importance, e.g., the smaller the radius of the concentric circles, the higher the indicated level of importance. When a message is pushed, the cue ball 705 cues the importance of the entire message.

For example, if the pushed message includes messages of levels a, B, D, concentric circles indicating the levels a, B, D are highlighted when the user is prompted. Here, the manner of highlighting is various, and the following description will be given by way of example.

For example, the color of a concentric circle that needs to be highlighted on the cue ball (i.e., a concentric circle corresponding to the importance level to which the push message belongs) may be set to color #1, and the color of a concentric circle that does not need to be highlighted on the cue ball may be set to color #2. When the pushed message includes the messages of the levels a, B, and D, the concentric circles indicating the levels a, B, and D may be displayed as a color #1, and the remaining concentric circles may be displayed as a color #2.

For another example, when there is a push message, the concentric circles of different importance levels may display different display attributes, such as displaying different colors, and when there is no push message, the concentric circles of different importance levels display a uniform default color, such as white. In this way, when the pushed message includes the messages of the levels a, B, and D, the concentric circles indicating the levels a, B, and D are displayed according to the respective display attributes, and the remaining concentric circles are displayed in the default color.

For another example, different (or the same) display attributes may be set for concentric circles of different importance levels, and the concentric circles may display the number of messages corresponding to the importance levels. In this way, when the pushed messages include messages of levels a, B, and D, concentric circles indicating the levels a, B, and D display the number of messages of the level a, the number of messages of the level B, and the number of messages of the level D, respectively, and the remaining concentric circles do not display the number of messages or display 0.

As shown in fig. 12 (b), the cue ball 706 may be in the form of a pie chart. The number of divided parts of the pie chart can indicate the total number of grades of importance, such as four grades of A, B, C and D. Different proportions of shares indicate different levels of importance, e.g., the greater the proportion of shares, the higher the level of importance indicated. When a message is pushed, the prompt ball 706 prompts the importance of the entire message. For example, if the pushed message includes messages of levels a, C, then concentric circles indicating the levels a, C are highlighted when the user is prompted. The manner of highlighting is similar to that described in (a) of fig. 12, and is not repeated herein for brevity.

As shown in fig. 12 (c), the cue ball 707 may be in the form of a dispersion ball. The number of the dispersion balls can indicate the total number of the grades of the importance degree, and each dispersion ball is used for indicating one grade, such as four grades A, B, C and D. The dispersion balls at different positions may indicate different importance levels, for example, among the dispersion balls arranged from left to right, the leftmost dispersion ball indicates the lowest importance level, and the rightmost dispersion ball indicates the highest importance level. For example, if the pushed message includes messages of levels a and C, the scatter ball indicating the levels a and C is highlighted when the user is prompted. The manner of highlighting is similar to that described in (a) of fig. 12, and is not repeated herein for brevity.

Thus, by prompting the display attribute of the ball, the user can know which importance levels the pushed messages belong to, and which level the most important message in the pushed messages belongs to.

It is mentioned in the description with respect to fig. 11 that the cue ball may also display the number of messages when used to indicate the most important of the push messages. Similarly, in the description about fig. 12, the cue ball may also display the number of messages of each level when used to indicate the importance of the overall message. Illustratively, as shown in (d) of fig. 12, taking the cue ball as the dispersion ball 708 as an example, each dispersion ball indicates a level of importance, and the number of messages included in the pushed message belonging to the corresponding level is also displayed on each dispersion ball. For example, the importance levels of the messages may be divided into a, B, C, and D levels, which are indicated by four scatter balls from left to right in the drawing, for example, 2 messages in the pushed messages are in a level a, 6 messages in a level B, 13 messages in a level C, and 10 messages in a level D. If there is no message push at a certain level, the corresponding dispersion ball may not display the number, or display the number of messages as 0.

In the embodiment of the application, the user can determine which importance levels the pushed messages belong to by prompting the number of the messages displayed on the ball, which level the message with the highest importance in the pushed messages belongs to, and what number of the messages under each level are.

In the above embodiments, the user may be prompted by displaying the number of messages on the prompting ball, and in other embodiments, the user may be prompted by displaying a ratio of the number of messages of different importance levels.

Illustratively, as shown in FIG. 13, cue ball 709 may be in the form of a pie chart. The number of divided parts of the pie chart can indicate the total number of grades of importance, such as four grades of A, B, C and D. Different colors (or different locations, or different textual designations) of the share may indicate different levels of importance. Different fractions of shares may indicate a fraction of the number of messages of different importance levels, wherein the greater the number of messages of a level, the greater the fraction of the corresponding share. For example, as shown in (a) of fig. 13, the number of messages of the four levels a, B, C, and D at the first time is 2, which indicates that the shares of the four levels are the same, and are 25%. As shown in fig. 13 (b), at the second time, the number of messages of the a-level increases to 3, and the number of messages of the remaining levels does not change, still to 2, indicating that the share ratio of the a-level messages increases and the share ratio of the remaining levels decreases.

It should be understood that the form of the cue ball in fig. 13 is merely exemplary, and the proportion of messages of different importance levels may also be displayed when the cue ball is represented in other ways, such as a circle diagram or the like. It should also be understood that the cue ball may not display the number of messages or indicate the number of messages of different levels by directly identifying the percentage, e.g., 25%, 30%, etc. values.

It should be noted that, the proportion of the messages with different importance levels in the above embodiments refers to the proportion of the messages with different importance levels in the whole push message.

In some embodiments, the electronic device may provide a switch that turns on the message prompt function provided herein. As shown in (a) of fig. 14, the notification setting interface 810 may include a "bubble ball" control 801, and when a user performs a click operation on the control 801, in response to the operation, the electronic device may turn on or off a message prompt function provided by an embodiment of the present application.

It can be understood that the message prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present application may coexist with other existing message prompting functions, and a user may share the method of using the bubble ball to prompt a message with other message prompting methods, for example, when the "bubble ball" control 801 is opened, one or more of the message prompting functions such as a notification icon, a notification bright screen prompt, a desktop icon corner mark, and a banner may also be displayed on the status bar. Alternatively, the message prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present application may be mutually exclusive with existing partial or all message prompting functions, for example, when the "bubble ball" control 801 is opened, one or more of the message prompting functions of closing the notification status bar by default to display the notification icon, the notification bright-screen prompt, the desktop icon corner mark, the banner, and the like are displayed.

In this case, the importance degree ranking of the message and the display attributes of the corresponding bubble balls (including the above-mentioned cue ball and message ball) may be defaults. For example, by default, messages pushed by applications in category A (e.g., including a phone application, a social application, a texting application, a mail application, etc.) are set to the most important messages (e.g., "very important" level), messages pushed by applications in category B (e.g., including a weather application, a mapping application, etc.) are set to the middle important messages (e.g., "important" level), and messages pushed by applications in category C (e.g., including a shopping application, a news application, etc.) are set to the least important messages (e.g., "unimportant" level). Accordingly, the color attribute of the bubble ball corresponding to the message with the highest degree of importance is set to "red", the color attribute of the bubble ball corresponding to the message with the middle degree of importance is set to "yellow", the color attribute of the bubble ball corresponding to the message with the lowest degree of importance is set to "blue", and so on, by default. The display attribute corresponding to the cue ball displayed on the AOD interface may be different from or the same as the display attribute corresponding to the message ball displayed on the message preview interface, which is not limited in this application.

In addition, since the cue ball may be used only for indicating the message with the highest degree of importance in the push message (refer to the cue ball in the embodiment shown in fig. 4), may be used for indicating the relative importance of the message with the highest degree of importance in the push message (refer to the cue ball in the embodiment shown in fig. 11), and may be used for indicating the degree of importance of all the push messages (refer to the cue ball in the embodiment shown in fig. 12), the cue ball functions differently and behaves differently. In specific implementation, the display attribute of the cue ball can be designed correspondingly according to different functions and forms. For example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 4, the cue ball is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the message of the highest importance in the push message; for another example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 12, the portions of the cue ball for indicating the respective importance level are displayed in accordance with the display attributes designated by the corresponding levels, respectively; for another example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 11, the cue ball may be displayed according to default display attributes, regardless of the level of the message with the highest importance in the pushed message, the portion of the cue ball that needs to be highlighted displays the same attribute information (e.g., displays the same color), and so on.

In the above embodiment, the electronic device may prompt the message through the prompt ball and the message ball, and in other embodiments, the electronic device may prompt the message through the message ball only. For example, the AOD interface may not display a prompt ball, or prompt the user with a message push in a notification screen-up manner, or otherwise enter the "message ball display interface" described in the above embodiments, in which the message pushed by the application and the importance level of the message are prompted by at least one message ball.

In the embodiment of the application, regardless of the function and the form of the cue ball, the electronic equipment can provide an interface and an option for setting the display attribute related to the cue ball for a user, and can also provide an interface and an option for setting the display attribute related to the message ball. For convenience of understanding, in the following embodiments, only the cue ball shown in fig. 4 is taken as an example, and the related arrangement of the cue ball and the message ball is described. In other cases, the setting of the cue ball and the message ball is similar, and will not be described more fully herein, and in particular implementation, a person skilled in the art can design accordingly according to the embodiments given in this application.

In some embodiments, an interface for a user to set the message prompt function provided by the present application may also be provided. As shown in (b) of fig. 14, the notification setting interface 820 may include a "bubble ball" control 802, and when a user performs a click operation on the control 802, in response to the operation, the electronic device displays an interface for setting a function related to a prompt message of the bubble ball (including a prompt ball and a message ball). This is described below with reference to fig. 15.

As shown in fig. 15 (a), the user can set the importance level of the message pushed by each application (which can also be regarded as the importance level of the application) in the "balloon setting" interface 910. Here, the display attribute of the bubble ball designated by each importance level may be default.

For example, the importance level classification of the push message and the display attribute (for example, the color attribute) of the corresponding bubble ball can be shown in the following table 1:

TABLE 1

Grade of degree of importance	Colour(s)
		Is very important	Red colour
Of importance	Yellow colour
		In general terms	Blue colour
Is not important	White colour

Accordingly, the user can select one of the four levels of "very important", "general", and "unimportant" when setting the importance level of the individual application. For example, the user performs a click operation on the "application 1" related control, and in response to this operation, the electronic device displays a "bubble ball setting" interface 920 as shown in (b) in fig. 15, where the "bubble ball setting" interface 920 includes a selection box 901 of the degree of importance level. In the selection box 901, the user can select the importance level of the message pushed by the application.

In some embodiments, the attribute information of the bubble ball specified by each level of importance may be user-defined. In other words, the user can customize the properties of the bubble ball corresponding to different levels of importance.

For example, as shown in (c) of fig. 15, the user may set display attributes of the bubble ball corresponding to each importance level in the "bubble ball setting" interface 930. According to the embodiment of the application, the color attribute of the bubble ball is taken as an example, the system can provide a plurality of alternative colors for a user, and the user selects any color from the alternative colors as the color displayed by the bubble ball corresponding to a certain importance level. Alternatively, the system may provide a color wheel for the user, and the user selects an arbitrary color from the color wheel as the color displayed by the bubble ball corresponding to the importance level.

For example, the user performs a click operation on a "very important" related control shown in (c) in fig. 15, and in response to this operation, the electronic device may display a "bubble ball setting" interface 940 as shown in (d) in fig. 15, where the "bubble ball setting" interface 940 includes a selection box 902 of a color attribute. In the selection box 902, the user can select the displayed color of the bubble ball corresponding to the importance level.

In addition to the importance of notification messages being partitioned at the application level, partitioning may be performed at the message level in some embodiments. That is, the granularity at which the user makes settings may be a notification message. It should be noted that, when the granularity of the message importance level set by the user is an application, generally, the importance levels of messages pushed by the same application are the same. When the granularity of the message importance degree set by the user is a message, messages pushed by the same application can have different importance degree levels.

For example, the classification of the importance level of the push message and the corresponding attribute information of the bubble ball can be as shown in table 2 below:

TABLE 2

Message	Level of importance	Colour(s)	Whether or not to display
				Message 1	Is very important	Red colour	Is that
Message 2	Of importance	Yellow colour	Is that
				Message 3	In general	Blue colour	Is that
Message 4	Is not important	White colour	Whether or not

The user may specify a level of importance for each message and a display attribute (e.g., display color) of the corresponding bubble. The importance degree grade of the message and the display attribute of the bubble ball can be independent or have an association relationship. For example, the user can set the importance level of the message and the color of the corresponding bubble ball according to personal habits or preferences. For another example, the system may provide a default correspondence between the importance level and the color of the bubble ball, or the user may customize the correspondence between the importance level and the color of the bubble ball, so that the user may set only one of the importance levels, and the other one of the importance levels is automatically selected according to the correspondence. The embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

In some embodiments, the user may also set whether the message is displayed in the bubble ball, and may add or delete messages as desired. Referring to table 2 and (a) of fig. 16, the user can set individual messages, for example, set the importance level of the message, set the display attribute of the bubble ball corresponding to the message ball, set whether the message is displayed in the bubble ball, and the like.

In some embodiments, the user may set messages outside of the customization to not be displayed in the bubble ball, so that spam messages to the user will be filtered out at the system level and not displayed in the bubble ball. As shown in table 2 above, the message 4 may comprise a non-user customized message that is set to not be displayed, and the user will not see the non-user customized message in the bubble ball, such as spam messages, nuisance calls, etc.

In the embodiment of the application, by customizing the message, the system level can realize more subtle message management close to the user requirement, and not like the existing scheme, once the notification function is opened, all notification messages of the application are pushed and displayed. At present, the notification function is used by a large number of applications to push advertisement messages, users generally only care about some messages in the applications, the large number of advertisement messages and the messages really cared by the users are displayed in a mixed mode, and the users cannot find the concerned messages in time. In the scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, the system layer can filter and display the information (namely the information customized by the user) concerned by the user and the advertisement information, reduces the junk information pushed and displayed to the user, is convenient for the user to check the customized information, and improves the user experience.

In some embodiments, the user may adjust the priority order of the message display in the bubble ball. Referring to (d) in fig. 4 and (b) in fig. 7, in the message list display interface, a message list displays messages corresponding to message balls. That is, the user can adjust the sequence of message display in the message list, so that the user can process the most concerned message first.

As shown in (b) of fig. 16, in the interface of the bubble ball setting, the user may adjust the priority of the message, that is, the order in which the messages are displayed in the message list, by a long press and drag operation, or by moving a control. Illustratively, messages in the message ball are displayed according to priority, with messages of higher priority being displayed earlier.

As an example, if the message balls correspond to the applications one to one, and one message ball displays only the messages pushed by one application, the user may adjust the priority of only the messages pushed by one application.

As another example, if a message ball is one-to-many with an application, and one message ball displays messages pushed by multiple applications, then the user can adjust the priority of the applications and the priority of the push messages within the applications.

Here, a message may refer to a type of message or may refer to a message, which is described below as an example.

For example, for a social application, a message sent by a certain user may be set as a push message, a message of a group chat may be set as a push message, and messages sent by all colleagues may also be set as push messages.

For example, for a shopping application, a message of a certain product (for example, skirt N of M stores) may be set as a push message, or a message of a certain product (for example, frappe) may be set as a push message.

For example, for a news application, a certain type of news (e.g., current news) may be set as a push message, and news related to a keyword input by a user (e.g., news related to a sporting event) may also be set as a push message.

In the embodiment of the application, when a user customizes a message, the user can click controls such as 'favorite', 'focus', 'share', and the like to form the customized message in the process of browsing an application or the message. Therefore, the information pushed to the user by the application can be closer to and adapt to the user requirement by customizing the pushed information by the user, the information is not easy to be identified as the junk information by the user, the information except the information customized by the user can be filtered out on the system level, and the pushing of the junk information is reduced.

In particular, a message format base class can be designed in an operating system, so that unified management of messages is realized. On the basis of the message format base class, each application can inherit the extended implementation subclass to complete the application of a specific screening rule. If the application has no custom subclasses, the screening can be accumulated according to the message format. For ease of understanding, the following is illustrative.

For example, the base class message format may consider the message to be an object, which may be expressed as:

message (message)
	Title (title)
Picture (picture)
	Priority (priority)
Description (description)

For example, a shopping application may inherit the base class message format described above and add a product identification (product ID) attribute. When a user shares a certain commodity with the bubble ball attention display, the shopping application can pack information specified by the user into a message and transmit the message to the system layer through the system layer interface. A message object is retained to the system layer and the custom message can be displayed to the bubble ball according to the priority rules and display rules.

For example, a news class application may inherit the base class message format described above and add a class name (classname) attribute, which represents a classification of news. When the user specifies that a certain type of news is interesting, the system level can display the bubble ball according to the priority rules and the display rules.

For example, the social class application may inherit the base class message format and add a user identifier (user ID) attribute, where the user identifier represents a unique identifier of the user. The user specifies that the message of a friend is interested, and the system level can display the message to the bubble ball according to the priority rule and the display rule.

By designing the message format base class for pushing the application to the bubble message ball, the application is allowed to inherit and expand according to the message format of the base class, personalized processing can be conveniently carried out on a system level according to application characteristics, unified management can be carried out according to application commonality and the like.

In other words, the application pushes the message according to a certain message format, where the message format may be a preset base class message format, or a subclass message format formed by inheriting and extending an application corresponding to the message on the basis of the base class message format. When a user customizes a message, the electronic device actually packages the information specified by the user into a message object according to the message format, and stores the message object in the system layer. When the system layer filters the message, the message pushed by the application can be matched with the stored message object. If the attribute information in the message pushed by the application is matched with the attribute information in the message object, the message pushed by the application is a message customized by the user, and the message can be displayed on the interface. If the attribute information in the message pushed by the application is not matched with the attribute information in the message object, the message pushed by the application is not the message customized by the user, and the message pushed by the application can be filtered out by the system layer, namely the message is not displayed on the interface, so that the user does not sense the pushing of the messages.

Here, the attribute information included in the message may be used to identify an application to which the message belongs, a title, a category, a commodity identification, a user identification, and the like of the message. In a specific implementation, the attribute in the message may have a personalized design according to different applications, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application. The attribute information included in the message object is similar, but different in that the attribute information in the message object is information specified by the user, that is, information for representing content that the user cares about, and for convenience of description, this embodiment may be referred to as customized attribute information. The application with which the custom attribute information is associated may be referred to as an attention application.

In addition, in other embodiments, the user may also form user non-customized messages by clicking controls such as "no longer receive", "dislike", "spam", and the like in the process of browsing an application or a message, and these messages may be filtered out at the system level, thereby reducing spam messages and messages not concerned by the user, which are pushed to the user, and improving user experience.

The user interfaces of the message prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present application are described above with reference to fig. 4 to fig. 16, and the flow of the message prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to fig. 17 and fig. 18. Reference may be made to the preceding description of embodiments of user interfaces, to portions of which interfaces and interface elements are not described in detail.

Fig. 17 shows a schematic flowchart of a message prompting method provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 17, the method includes steps S1001 to S1016.

In step S1001, the application pushes the message to the system.

Specifically, after the notification function of the application is opened, the application may push a message to the user using the notification function. The message may be a message customized by a user or a message not customized by the user. The customized message means that the user specifies that a certain information or some information is interested in the application, and then the application packages the information specified by the user into a message object according to a certain message format and sends the message object to the system, and the message object is reserved in the system. And the subsequent application filters the messages pushed by the application according to the message objects, filters the messages which are not interested by the user in the pushed messages, and pushes the messages which are interested by the user in the pushed messages to the user, wherein the messages pushed to the user are the messages customized by the user.

In step S1002, the system sets the display properties of the bubble ball.

The bubble ball comprises a prompt ball and a message ball, wherein the prompt ball is displayed on the AOD interface and the unlocking interface, and the message ball is displayed on the message preview interface.

Before this, the user may set a level of importance for the message or application and the corresponding display attributes of the bubble ball, in which step the system may determine the display attributes of the bubble ball based on the level of importance of the message.

If there are no messages unprocessed by the user before step S1001, the newly pushed message is equivalent to the first message pushed to the user, and in step S1002, the system determines the display attributes of the message ball and the display attributes of the cue ball. If the message received in step S1001 is not the first message pushed to the user, the system sets the display attribute of the message ball to be the following two cases:

the first condition is as follows:

the message pushed in step S1001 and the message already pushed to the user prompt the user using the same message ball, for example, a message pushed by the same application or a message belonging to the same importance level, and then the system may determine whether to change the display attribute of the message ball according to the importance level of the newly pushed message. Illustratively, if the importance level of the newly pushed message is higher than the importance level of the already pushed message, the message ball is displayed according to the display attribute (e.g., color change) specified by the newly pushed message; if the importance level of the newly pushed message is lower than or equal to that of the already pushed message, the display attribute of the message ball remains unchanged.

Case two:

the message pushed in step S1001 and the message already pushed to the user are prompted to the user by using different message balls, for example, a message belonging to a different application push, or a message belonging to a different importance level, the system may display a new message ball according to the display attribute specified by the newly pushed message.

The system is mainly determined according to the importance degree grades of the newly pushed message and the already pushed message when setting the display attribute of the cue ball. For example, if the importance level of the newly pushed message is highest, the prompt ball is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the newly pushed message; otherwise, the display attribute of the prompt ball is not changed.

In some embodiments, the system may filter messages during this step, for example, setting non-user customized messages to go undisplayed, which may filter out spam and advertising information. Therefore, the information prompted by the system to the user is closer to the requirement of the user, and the user experience is improved.

In step S1003, it is determined whether the AOD interface displays a cue ball.

Messages pushed by the application to the user may be filtered out by the system in step S1002, and thus the AOD interface may not display a cue ball. Thus, the system can repeatedly perform step S1001 and step S1002.

If the prompting ball is displayed on the AOD interface, a message is pushed to the user, and the next steps are executed.

In step S1004, a click operation of the cue ball by the user is detected.

In this step, the electronic device detects whether the user has performed a preset operation, such as a click operation, on the cue ball to determine whether the user is to process the message (e.g., view or delete the message). It will be appreciated that the preset operation may be any operation, and the click operation is merely exemplary.

In step S1005, in response to the click operation of the prompt ball by the user, the electronic device enters an unlocking interface.

In step S1006, it is determined whether the unlocking is successful.

If successful, executing the next steps; if the failure occurs, returning to the previous step.

The steps S1005 and S1006 are optional steps, and if the user sets the identity authentication, the step of unlocking is performed; if the user does not set the identity authentication, steps S1005 and S1006 may be skipped and step S1007 may be directly performed.

In step S1007, the electronic device enters a message ball display interface to prompt the ball to split into a plurality of message balls.

It should be noted that the prompt ball splitting into multiple message balls is only one display effect of interface transition, and in other embodiments, the message balls may also be directly displayed after entering the message ball display interface, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. It should also be noted that the message display interface may include only one message ball.

In step S1008, it is detected whether the user drags the message ball out of the screen.

In this step, the electronic device may detect whether the user performs a preset operation on the message ball, such as dragging to an edge or beyond of the screen, or a flick operation, to determine whether the user wants to delete the message ball. It is to be understood that the preset operation may be any operation, and the operation of dragging the message ball out of the screen is merely exemplary.

If the result of the detection is yes, step S1009 is executed to delete the message ball and the corresponding message.

If the detection result is negative, the next step is executed.

In step S1010, it is detected whether the user clicks a message ball.

In this step, the electronic device may detect whether the user performs a preset operation, such as a click operation, on the message ball to determine whether the user wants to view the message. It will be appreciated that the preset operation may be any operation, and the click operation is merely exemplary.

If the detection result is no, the previous step is returned or the step S1010 is repeatedly executed.

If the detection result is yes, the next step is executed.

In step S1011, the message list display interface is entered, and a message list is displayed.

In step S1012, it is detected whether the user clicks on a message.

In this step, the electronic device may detect whether the user performs a preset operation on the message, for example, a click operation, to determine whether the user wants to enter the corresponding application to view the specific content. It will be appreciated that the preset operation may be any operation, and the click operation is merely exemplary.

If the result is yes, step S1013 is executed to enter an application interface and display the specific content of the message.

If the detection result is negative, the next step is executed.

In step S1014, it is detected whether the user drags the message.

In this step, the electronic device may detect whether the user performs a preset operation on the message, such as a drag operation or a flick operation, to determine whether the user wants to delete the message. It is to be understood that the preset operation may be any operation, and the drag operation is merely exemplary.

If the detection result is yes, step S1015 is executed to delete the message.

If the detection result is negative, the next step is executed.

In step S1016, it is detected whether the user clicks a non-message display area.

In this step, the electronic device may detect whether the user performs a preset operation, such as a click operation, on the non-message display area to determine whether the user wants to return to the previous interface. It will be appreciated that the preset operation may be any operation, and the click operation is merely exemplary.

If the detected result is yes, step S1007 is executed, i.e. the process returns to the message ball display interface.

If the detection result is negative, returning to the previous step or repeating the current step.

In the embodiment of the present application, for examples of the AOD interface, the unlocking interface, the message ball display interface, and the message list display interface, reference may be made to corresponding interfaces in the embodiments shown in fig. 4 to fig. 13 described above.

It should be understood that the execution sequence of each step shown in the drawings is only an example, in other embodiments, some mutually independent steps may be executed successively or in parallel, and this is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. For example, the order of steps S1008, S1010 may be performed in reverse, or simultaneously; also, the order of steps S1012, S1014, S1016 may be reversed or performed simultaneously.

Fig. 18 is a timing diagram illustrating a message prompting method according to an embodiment of the present application. The flow described in fig. 18 from the perspective of user interaction in time series corresponds to the flow shown in fig. 17, and reference may be made to the relevant description in fig. 17 where not described in detail below.

In step S1101, the application pushes a message to the system using the message format.

In step S1102, the system determines the display attributes of the bubble ball according to the rules set by the user.

In step S1103, the user clicks a cue ball of the AOD interface.

In step S1104, enter an unlock interface.

In step S1105, the message preview interface is unlocked and entered.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the message preview interface includes a message ball display interface and a message list display interface, and the two interfaces are not specifically distinguished and are collectively referred to as a message preview interface.

In step S1106a, the user slides the message ball to the edge of the screen.

In step S1106b, the message ball is deleted.

In step S1107a, the user clicks the message ball.

In step S1107b, a message list is displayed.

In step S1108a, the user slides the message to the edge of the message list.

In step S1108b, the message is deleted.

In step S1109a, the user clicks a message.

In step S1109b, the application interface is entered.

In step S1110a, the user clicks the non-message display area.

In step S1110b, the previous interface is returned.

In step S1111, when the user does not perform any operation for a long time, the screen is locked.

In step S1112, the AOD interface is entered.

In the method provided by the embodiment of the application, the prompting ball is displayed on the AOD interface, so that the user can be prompted about the concerned message pushing, and the user is prompted about the importance degree of the message pushing by the display attribute of the prompting ball. The message balls are displayed on the message preview interface, the customized messages can be displayed by different applications, and the importance degree of each message ball is indicated by different message ball display attributes. Therefore, the defects that the electronic equipment lacks classification and important degree prompt when the push message is displayed are overcome, a user can conveniently and quickly find out the concerned message in time from a plurality of messages, and the user experience is improved.

Further, in the method provided in the embodiment of the present application, a user may customize messages, for example, set which messages to push, set whether a bubble ball of a certain application is open, adjust a display attribute of the bubble ball, adjust a display priority order of the messages, add or delete a message of interest, and the like, thereby implementing that a message receiving interface customized by the user is provided at an application level, and providing finer message filtering display control at a system level. By filtering the junk information, the useful information of the user can be effectively displayed, and the method can be closer to the user requirement.

With reference to the foregoing embodiments and the related drawings, the embodiments of the present application provide a message prompting method, which can be implemented in an electronic device (e.g., a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc.) shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2. Fig. 19 is a schematic flowchart of a message prompting method provided in an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 19, the method 1200 may include the following steps:

1201, at least one message is received.

The at least one message may be pushed to the user by one application or pushed to the user by multiple applications, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. The at least one message may be pushed to the user at one time, or may be pushed to the user multiple times, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application. It is to be understood that the at least one message is a message that has not been processed (e.g., viewed, deleted) by the user.

In some embodiments, the at least one message may be a message customized by the user, i.e., the at least one message includes information related to the content of interest (or content of interest) of the user. That is, the system layer of the electronic device may prompt the user for pushes of messages of interest to the user, while masking or filtering messages that are not of interest to the user (e.g., messages other than the messages of interest to the user) without prompting the user for pushes of those messages.

In other words, the electronic device may receive both user-customized messages and non-user-customized messages, wherein the electronic device prompts the user for a push of the user-customized message but does not prompt the user for a push of the non-user-customized message. Therefore, the messages pushed by the application can be filtered and displayed, and some junk messages and advertisement messages are filtered, so that the messages concerned by the user can be effectively displayed, the message management close to the user requirement in a more subtle way on the system level is realized, and the user experience is improved.

In some embodiments, the application may push the message based on the user customization, which may improve the pushing accuracy, so that the message pushed to the user may be more adaptive to the user's needs and may not be easily recognized as a spam message by the user.

Specifically, take any one of the at least one message, such as the first message as an example. The first message has first attribute information that matches first custom attribute information that the first message object has. Wherein the first message and the first message object correspond to a first application of interest and both have a first message format. The first message object is reserved in a system layer of the electronic equipment after the first customized attribute information is packaged according to a first message format according to the indication of a user in the process of using the first concerned application by the user. The first message object is used for filtering messages which are not matched with the first customized attribute information in the messages pushed by the first concerned application.

That is, the first message and the first message object correspond to the same application, i.e., the first application of interest. The first message and the first message object have the same message format, i.e., the first message format. The first message is a message actually pushed to the user by the first concerned application, and the first message object is an object customized by the electronic equipment according to information specified by the user and used for matching and filtering the message pushed by the first concerned application.

The first message has first attribute information for characterizing message content included in the first message. For example, the first attribute information may include information such as an application to which the first message belongs, a title of the first message, and a message category to which the first message belongs, or may also include personalized information of the first message, such as a commodity identifier, a social user identifier, a keyword in which the user is interested, and may also include display priority information of the first message.

The first message object has first customized attribute information for characterizing the content comprised by the first message object, i.e. for characterizing user-specified information (or information of interest). For example, the first customized attribute information may include an application interested by the user, a message category interested by the user, a social user interested by the user, and the like, and the first customized attribute information may further include personalized information such as a commodity of interest, news, a video, weather of a place, traffic information of a place, and the like, according to the application. The first message object is formed by packaging the first customized attribute information according to a first message format. The first message object is retained at the system layer.

When the message screening is performed, if the first attribute information of the first message is matched with the first customized attribute information of the first message object, the first message is considered to be a message in which the user is interested, and a system layer of the electronic device can remind the user of pushing the first message.

It can be understood that a system layer of the electronic device may store a plurality of message objects, and if some pushed messages do not match with the customized attribute information in the plurality of objects, the messages are considered as messages in which the user is interested, and the system layer of the electronic device may mask the messages and not prompt the user of pushing the messages.

In some embodiments, the first message format may be a preset base class message format, or may be a subclass message format formed by the first interested application inheriting and expanding on the basis of the preset base class message format.

In the embodiment of the application, different applications can inherit and extend the preset base class message format, and the subclass message format corresponding to each application is realized. The format of the message pushed by the application can be a base-class message format or a subclass message format, so that the system of the electronic equipment can conveniently process the message pushed by the application in a unified manner according to the base-class message format, or can process the special application message in a personalized manner according to the subclass message format, and a user can conveniently customize the concerned message in the application directly.

In the embodiment of the application, the system layer of the electronic device may provide an interface for the application, so that the information customized by the user on the application level is retained in the system layer as a message object.

For example, the first interface element may be a cue ball 401 (bubble shape) as shown in fig. 4 (a), a cue ball 701 (arrow target shape), a cue ball 702 (pie chart), a cue ball 703 (annular chart), a cue ball 704 (dispersed ball), and other forms such as a cloud, petal, sphere, and the like as shown in fig. 11 (a).

In this embodiment of the present application, the message may be divided into multiple importance levels, and the display attribute of the first interface element may indicate an importance level to which a message with the highest importance level belongs in the messages received by the electronic device. That is, the display attribute of the first interface element may indicate a message with the highest importance level among messages received by the electronic device.

In one embodiment, the display attribute of the first interface element includes at least one of a color attribute, a shape attribute, a size attribute, a position attribute, a pattern attribute, a text attribute, a motion attribute of the first interface element. For example, the importance level of the message may be indicated by at least one attribute of a color, a shape, a size, a position in the first interface, a pattern carried, a text carried, a speed of movement of the first interface element. In this embodiment of the present application, the display attributes specified by different importance levels are different, and in this step, the first interface element is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the importance level to which the message with the highest importance level belongs, from among the at least one message.

In the embodiment of the application, through the display attribute of the first interface element, the user can know which importance level the message with the highest importance degree belongs to in the pushed messages, for example, important, generally important or less important, and the like, and the more authoritative and credible importance degree prompt is provided for the user, so that the user can conveniently determine whether to immediately check the related message.

In one embodiment, the first interface element is also used to indicate a preset overall importance level.

In other words, the first interface element may indicate that the importance levels of the messages are divided into several levels in total, and indicate the level of importance to which the message with the highest importance level belongs among the at least one message. Therefore, the user can intuitively sense the relative importance of the message with the highest importance degree in the pushed messages conveniently.

Illustratively, the first interface element may be in the form of a cue ball as shown in fig. 11 (a) - (d).

In one embodiment, the first interface element is used to indicate a level of importance to which at least one message belongs. For example, a portion of the at least one message may be of a first importance level, a portion of the message may be of a second importance level, and a portion of the message may be of a third importance level, and the first interface element may indicate to the user that there is a message push at the first importance level, the second importance level, and the third importance level.

Illustratively, the first interface element may be in the form of a cue ball as shown in fig. 12 (a) - (c).

In one embodiment, the first interface element is further configured to indicate a total number of the at least one message and/or a number of the at least one message distributed to each of the overall importance levels.

Illustratively, the first interface element may be in the form of a cue ball as shown in (c) of fig. 12, or in the form of a cue ball as shown in fig. 13.

A first operation of the user on the first interface element is detected 1203.

In one embodiment, the first operation may be a click operation, such as a single click or a double click; the first operation may also be a sliding operation, such as a flick up or a flick down. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4 (a), the first operation may be a click operation on a first interface element (e.g., a cue ball 401).

1204, in response to the first operation, displaying a second interface.

The second interface is used for identifying the identity of the user. For example, the second interface may verify the identity of the user by face recognition, fingerprint recognition, pattern recognition, password recognition, or the like.

In one embodiment, the second interface may include text information, pattern information, numerical information for prompting the user for identification.

In an embodiment of the application, the second interface includes a first interface element.

In one embodiment, the first interface element in the second interface is further configured to prompt the user for identification.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4 (b), the second interface may be an unlock interface 420. The first interface element may be a cue ball 401.

And 1205, detecting that the user completes the identification, and displaying a third interface, wherein the third interface comprises at least one second interface element.

The second interface element is used for indicating that one or more applications push messages, and the display attribute of the second interface element is used for indicating the importance degree level of the message with the highest importance degree in the messages pushed by the one or more applications.

It should be noted that "at least one" of "at least one second interface element" indicates the number of the second interface elements, that is, the third interface includes the second interface elements, where the number of the second interface elements is at least one. The "second interface element" referred to in the following embodiments may be understood as any one of the second interface elements in the third interface.

In one embodiment, the third interface may be an interface after user identification is completed. Illustratively, the third interface may be a message preview interface 430 as shown in (c) of fig. 4, or a message ball display interface 610 as shown in (a) of fig. 8, or a message ball display interface as shown in fig. 10.

The second interface element may be designed according to actual requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. Illustratively, the second interface element may be a message ball 403a-403e (bubble shape) as shown in (c) of fig. 4, a message ball 601-604 (bubble shape) as shown in (a) of fig. 8, or other forms such as cloud-shaped, petal-shaped, spherical, etc.

In one embodiment, the second interface element may have the same or similar graphics as the first interface element. Therefore, when the importance degree grades of the first interface element and the second interface element reminding message are adopted, the same or similar display attributes can be displayed, the use habits of users are better adapted, and in addition, the attractiveness of the interface can be improved.

In this embodiment, the message may be divided into a plurality of importance levels, and for one of the second interface elements, the display attribute of the second interface element may indicate an importance level to which a message with the highest importance level belongs in the one or more messages pushed by the application (i.e., the pushed message prompted by the second interface element). That is, the display attribute of the second interface element may indicate a message with the highest level of importance among messages pushed by the one or more applications. It should be understood that reference to one or more applications herein refers to applications that have pushed messages.

In one embodiment, the display attribute of the second interface element includes at least one of a color attribute, a shape attribute, a size attribute, a position attribute, a pattern attribute, a text attribute, a motion attribute of the second interface element. For example, the importance level of the message may be indicated by at least one attribute of a color, a shape, a size, a position in the third interface, a pattern carried, a text carried, a speed of movement of the second interface element. In this embodiment of the present application, the display attributes specified by different importance levels are different, and in this step, the second interface element is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the importance level to which the message with the highest importance level belongs, among the messages pushed by the one or more applications.

In the embodiment of the application, at least one second interface element is displayed on the third interface, and for one of the second interface elements, through the display attribute of the second interface element, the user can know which importance level the message with the highest importance degree belongs to in the push message prompted by the second interface element, for example, important, generally important or less important, and provide a more authoritative and credible importance degree prompt for the user, so that the user can conveniently determine whether to view the related message immediately.

In addition, the display attributes of different second interface elements may be different, that is, the importance levels indicated by different second interface elements are different. Therefore, the user can conveniently find the messages with higher importance degree levels in time and quickly through the display attributes of different second interface elements, and preferentially check the messages and the like.

In one embodiment, the second interface element may also be used to indicate a level of importance to which messages pushed by one or more applications are distributed. For example, where one or more applications push messages, a portion of the messages belong to a first importance level, a portion of the messages belong to a second importance level, and a portion of the messages belong to a third importance level, the second interface element may indicate to the user that there is a message push at the first importance level, the second importance level, and the third importance level.

In one embodiment, the second interface element is also used to indicate the number of messages pushed by the one or more applications. For example, the second interface element may indicate a total number of messages pushed by the one or more applications and/or indicate a number of messages pushed by each of the one or more applications.

By reminding the number of messages through the second interface element, the user can know which message with the importance degree level is pushed and the number of messages.

In one embodiment, the second interface element may include an identification of one or more applications, such as an application icon or an application name. This may facilitate the user to know which applications pushed the message.

In this embodiment of the application, when the second interface element prompts a message, the following manner may be adopted.

In one embodiment, the second interface element has a corresponding relationship with at least one first application, wherein messages pushed by the at least one first application all belong to a first importance level, and the second interface element is displayed according to a display attribute designated by the at least one first application for indicating the first importance level.

In other words, the second interface element has a corresponding relationship with the at least one first application, and accordingly, the second interface element is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the corresponding at least one first application, and the messages prompted by the second interface element have the same importance level. Here, the one or more applications mentioned above belong to the at least one first application. Thus, different second interface elements may indicate messages of different importance levels, e.g., second interface element a may indicate a message of importance level a, second interface element B may indicate a message of importance level B, second interface element C may indicate a message of importance level C, and so on.

In this way, different second interface elements have different display attributes, and a user can quickly find a focused message and an application through the second interface elements with different display attributes, thereby improving user experience. And the messages pushed by the same application have the same importance level, so that the user can conveniently set the importance level of the pushed message by setting the importance level of the application.

In another embodiment, the second interface element has a corresponding relationship with at least one first application, wherein messages pushed by the at least one first application belong to at least two importance levels, the at least two importance levels are in one-to-one correspondence with at least two display attributes, and the second interface element is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the importance level corresponding to the message with the highest importance level in the messages pushed by the at least one first application.

In other words, the second interface element has a corresponding relationship with the at least one first application, accordingly, the second interface element is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the corresponding at least one first application, and the message prompted by the second interface element may include messages of at least two importance levels. Here, the second interface element may be displayed in accordance with a display attribute designated by the importance level corresponding to the importance level high message. The same second interface element may indicate messages of different importance levels. For example, in the message prompted by the second interface element, a part of the message belongs to the highest importance level a (the display attribute of the second interface element specified by the importance level a is a), a part of the message belongs to the middle importance level B (the display attribute of the second interface element specified by the importance level B is B), and a part of the message belongs to the lowest importance level C (the display attribute of the second interface element specified by the importance level C is C), so that the second interface element can be displayed according to the importance level corresponding to the message with the highest importance level, that is, the display attribute specified by the importance level a (that is, the display attribute a).

In this way, the second interface element can prompt the message with the highest importance level, so that the user can know which applications push the message with the highest importance level through the display attribute of the second interface element, and the message and the application concerned by the user can be conveniently and quickly found. And the message pushed by the same application is prompted by a second interface element, so that a user can conveniently check all messages pushed by a certain application at one time.

In yet another embodiment, the second interface element has a corresponding relationship with a first type of message, the first type of message belongs to a first importance level, and the second interface element is displayed according to a display attribute designated by the first type of message for indicating the first importance level.

In other words, the second interface element has a corresponding relationship with the first type of message, and accordingly, the second interface element is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the corresponding first type of message, and the messages prompted by the second interface element have the same importance level. Different second interface elements may indicate messages of different levels of importance, e.g., second interface element a may indicate a message of level of importance a, second interface element B may indicate a message of level of importance B, second interface element C may indicate a message of level of importance C, etc. Wherein messages of different importance levels may belong to the same application.

In this way, different second interface elements have different display attributes, and a user can quickly find out a concerned message through the second interface elements with different display attributes, so that the user experience is improved. And the messages with the same importance degree grade are prompted through a second interface element, so that a user can conveniently check the messages with a certain importance degree grade at one time.

After the third interface is displayed, the user can also perform some operations on the third interface to realize the processing of the message.

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: detecting a second operation of the user on a second interface element; and responding to the second operation, and displaying a fourth interface, wherein the fourth interface comprises messages pushed by one or more applications.

In one embodiment, the second operation may be a click operation, such as a single click or a double click; the second operation may also be a sliding operation, such as a flick up or a flick down. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4 (c), fig. 7 (a), and fig. 8 (a), the second operation may be a click operation on the second interface element (e.g., the

message ball

403b, 502, 601).

The fourth interface is used for displaying messages pushed by one or more applications. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4 (d), fig. 7 (b), fig. 8 (b), fig. 9 (c), the fourth interface may be a message list display interface (e.g., interfaces 430, 520, 620, etc.).

In one embodiment, messages pushed by one or more applications are displayed in sequence from high to low in priority. That is, the fourth interface may be sequentially displayed in order of priority when displaying the pushed messages. Thus, messages with high priority are displayed first and can be viewed by the user with priority.

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: detecting a third operation of the user on the first message, wherein the first message is one of messages pushed by one or more applications; and in response to the third operation, deleting the first message from the fourth interface.

In one embodiment, the third operation may be a sliding operation, such as a leftward slide, a rightward slide, a leftward slide, or a downward slide. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 5 (a), the third operation may be a rightward slide operation on a certain message.

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: detecting a fourth operation of the user on a second message, wherein the second message is one of the messages pushed by the one or more applications; and responding to the fourth operation, displaying a fifth interface, wherein the fifth interface is a display interface of the application to which the second message belongs, and the fifth interface displays the second message.

In the embodiment of the application, the application interface can be directly accessed to display the specific content of the message through the related operation on the message displayed in the fourth interface, so that a user can conveniently view the complete content, or perform operations such as replying and commenting.

In one embodiment, the fourth operation may be a clicking operation, such as a single click or a double click. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 5 (c), the fourth operation may be a click operation on a certain message.

For example, taking the second message as a short message, the fifth interface may be the application interface 440 shown in fig. 5 (d).

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: detecting a fifth operation of the user on a non-message display area, wherein the non-message display area is an area on the fourth interface except for the message display area, and the message display area is used for displaying messages pushed by one or more applications; and responding to the fifth operation, and displaying a third interface.

In one embodiment, the message display area may be in the form of a message list, such as message list 404 shown in (d) of fig. 4, or message list 506 shown in (b) of fig. 7, or the like.

In one embodiment, the message display area may be located in the area occupied by the second interface element, and thus the non-message display area may be an area other than the message display area in the area occupied by the second interface element, may be an area other than the area occupied by the second interface element on the fourth interface, and may include both of the foregoing areas.

In one embodiment, the fifth operation may be a clicking operation, such as a single click or a double click. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 6 (a), the fifth operation may be a click operation on the non-message display area.

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: detecting a sixth operation of the user on the second interface element; and in response to the sixth operation, deleting the second interface element from the third interface.

In the embodiment of the application, messages prompted by the second interface elements can be deleted in batches through operation of the second interface elements, and operation by a user is facilitated. It should be noted that, deleting the message here refers to deleting the prompt information of the message in the second interface element, so that the second interface element no longer prompts the push of the messages.

In one embodiment, the sixth operation may be a drag operation, such as a left drag, a right drag, a left drag, or a down drag. For example, as shown in (c) of fig. 6, the sixth operation may be a right drag operation on a certain second interface element, for example, dragging the second interface element out of the screen.

The message prompting method provided by the embodiment of the application can be executed by default after the electronic equipment is started, or switch setting can be provided to facilitate a user to turn on a message prompting function.

In one embodiment, prior to displaying the first interface, the method 1200 further comprises: displaying a sixth interface, the sixth interface comprising a first control; detecting a seventh operation of the first control by the user; and responding to the seventh operation, and opening a function of performing message prompting by using the first interface element and the second interface element.

The embodiment of the application can provide a first control for turning on or turning off a function of performing message prompt by using a first interface element and a second interface element. After the function is opened, when the electronic device receives the push message, the message prompting method provided by the embodiment of the application can be executed. The function may coexist with other message prompt functions (for example, a desktop icon corner mark, a status bar display notification icon, and the like), or may be mutually exclusive with other message prompt functions, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In one embodiment, the sixth interface may be an interface for setting a message reminding manner in the electronic device, such as the notification setting interface 810 shown in (a) in fig. 14 or the notification setting interface 820 shown in (b) in fig. 14.

It is to be understood that the interface for opening the message prompt function provided in the embodiment of the present application may also have other names and layouts, which are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Illustratively, the first control may be a switch, such as the control 801 shown in (a) of fig. 14. The first control may also be an option setting control, such as the control 802 shown in fig. 14 (b).

In one embodiment, the seventh operation may be a click operation, such as a single click.

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: and displaying a seventh interface, wherein the seventh interface comprises at least one second control, the second controls correspond to the applications one by one, and the second controls are used for adjusting the importance degree level of the message pushed by the application corresponding to the second controls.

It should be noted that "at least one" of the "at least one second control" indicates the number of the second controls, that is, the seventh interface includes the second controls, where the number of the second controls is at least one. The "second control" referred to in the following embodiments may be understood as any one of the second controls in the seventh interface.

For example, as shown in (a) of fig. 15, the seventh interface may be a bubble ball setting interface 910, which includes second controls respectively corresponding to a plurality of applications, and each of the second controls is used for adjusting the importance level of the corresponding application. The importance level of an application may be considered as the importance level of a message pushed by the application.

For example, when a user clicking on the second control is detected, a first selection frame may be displayed on the seventh interface, where the first selection frame includes all preset importance levels. When the clicking operation of the user on the control corresponding to a certain importance level is detected, the message pushed by the application can be set to the importance level.

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: and displaying an eighth interface, wherein the eighth interface comprises a plurality of third controls, the third controls correspond to preset importance levels one by one, the third controls are used for adjusting display attributes appointed by the importance levels corresponding to the third controls, and the display attributes are display attributes according to which the first interface element and/or the second interface element are/is based.

It should be noted that "a plurality" of the "multiple third controls" indicates that the number of the third controls is, that is, the eighth interface includes the third controls, where the number of the third controls is multiple. The third control element referred to in the following embodiments may be understood as any one of the third control elements in the eighth interface.

Illustratively, as shown in (c) of fig. 15, the eighth interface may be a bubble ball setting interface 930 including a plurality of third controls respectively corresponding to the importance levels, each of the third controls being used for adjusting a display attribute, such as color, shape, size, etc., specified by the corresponding importance level.

For example, when a user clicks on the third control element, a second selection frame may be displayed on the eighth interface, where the second selection frame includes all preset display attributes. When the clicking operation of the user on the control corresponding to a certain display attribute is detected, the display attribute specified by the importance degree grade can be set as the selected display attribute. And when the message prompted by the first interface element and/or the second interface element belongs to the importance level, displaying the first interface element and/or the second interface element according to the selected display attribute.

In one embodiment, the method 1200 further comprises: displaying a ninth interface, wherein the ninth interface comprises at least one fourth control, the fourth control corresponds to the message one by one, and the fourth control is used for adjusting any one of the following items:

a display attribute specified by a message corresponding to the fourth control;

the importance degree level of the message corresponding to the fourth control;

The display priority of the message corresponding to the fourth control when the user views the message; or

Whether the message corresponding to the fourth control is prompted through the first interface element and the second interface element;

the display attribute is a display attribute according to which the first interface element and/or the second interface element is/are based.

In an embodiment of the application, the electronic device may provide a control to adjust parameters from message granularity.

It should be noted that "at least one" of the "at least one fourth control" indicates the number of the fourth controls, that is, the ninth interface includes the fourth controls, where the number of the fourth controls is at least one. The "fourth control" referred to in the following embodiments may be understood as any one of the fourth controls in the ninth interface.

In one example, the fourth control is used to adjust a display property specified by a message corresponding to the fourth control. For example, the ninth interface may include a fourth control corresponding to each of the plurality of messages, each fourth control being used to adjust a display property specified by the corresponding message. And when the message is included in the message prompted by the first interface element and/or the second interface element and the importance degree of the message is the highest, the first interface element and/or the second interface element is displayed according to the display attribute specified by the message.

In another example, a fourth control is used to adjust the importance level to which the message corresponding to the fourth control belongs. For example, the ninth interface may include a fourth control corresponding to each of the plurality of messages, and each fourth control is used for adjusting the importance level of the corresponding message. The user can set the importance level of the message that the user is interested in to be the highest.

In another example, the fourth control is used to adjust a display priority of a message corresponding to the fourth control when the message is viewed by the user. For example, the ninth interface may include fourth controls corresponding to the plurality of messages, and each fourth control is configured to adjust a sequence of the messages displayed on the fourth interface. For example, if a message has the highest priority, the pushed message includes the message, which is displayed in the fourth interface in the front.

In yet another example, a fourth control is used to adjust whether a message corresponding to the fourth control is prompted by the first interface element and the second interface element. For example, the ninth interface may include a plurality of fourth controls corresponding to the messages, respectively, and each fourth control is used to adjust whether the corresponding message is displayed in the first interface element and the second interface element. For example, if a message is set not to be displayed, it may be considered that the user does not want to receive the message, and when the pushed message includes the message, the electronic device may filter the message and not prompt the user to push the message.

Illustratively, the ninth interface may be a bubble sphere setting interface as shown in fig. 16.

In the embodiment of the application, the electronic device can control the pushing of the application message in three levels. The first level may display the pushed messages in a classified manner by the display attributes of the first interface element and the second interface element, the display priority of the messages, and the like.

Step 2 is similar to S1205 in the method 1200 and S1304 in the method 1300, and reference may be specifically made to the related description in the method 1200, which is omitted here for brevity.

In one embodiment, before displaying the third interface, S1202-S1204 of method 1200 may be performed, and the third interface is displayed after detecting that the user has completed identification.

In one embodiment, S1302-S1303 in method 1300 may be performed before displaying the third interface, and the third interface is displayed in response to the first operation.

In one embodiment, user identification may be completed prior to displaying the third interface.
