The control unit 11 starts executing the contact book registration program 12a when the mobile terminal 10 is turned on, and starts a contact book registration process described later. The control unit 11 executes the contact book registration program 12a until the power of the mobile terminal 10 is turned off or the user performs an operation to stop the execution of the contact book registration program 12a.

  The contact book registration process performed by the mobile terminal 10 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG.

  The setting unit 11a determines whether or not an operation for reading the contact book file 12b stored in the storage unit 12 has been performed in accordance with the operation of the user who operates the operation unit 14 (step SA1). The setting unit 11a is in a standby state until an operation for reading the contact book file 12b is performed (step SA1; NO).

  On the other hand, if the setting unit 11a determines that an operation for reading the contact book file 12b has been performed (step SA1; YES), a list of individual contact book data included in the contact book file 12b is shown in FIG. As shown, each item 15c representing the name and image of the partner who is the contact is displayed on the screen of the display unit 15 (step SA2).

  Subsequently, the setting unit 11a determines whether or not an operation to start editing the contact book data has been performed in accordance with the user's operation (step SA3). For example, when the user confirms the list of individual contact book data displayed on the display unit 15 and selects the contact book data to be edited from the list, or creates new contact book data When the operation is performed, the setting unit 11a determines that an operation for starting editing of the contact book data has been performed (step SA3; YES). On the other hand, the setting unit 11a is in a standby state until an operation for starting editing of the contact book data is performed (step SA3; NO).

  On the other hand, when the setting unit 11a determines that an operation to start editing the contact book data has been performed (step SA3; YES), as illustrated in FIG. 8A, various settings represented by the contact book data to be edited. The item is displayed on the display unit 15. Thereafter, the setting unit 11a starts a contact book data editing process (step SA4).

  Next, the contact book data editing process performed in step SA4 will be described with reference to FIG.

  The setting unit 11a determines whether or not an operation for newly setting a contact is performed (step SB1). For example, when an operation is performed on the screen of the display unit 15 of the mobile terminal 10 at a position (operation unit 14) that accepts an operation for setting a contact, the setting unit 11a performs an operation for newly setting a contact. It is determined that the contact has been made (step SB1; YES), and a contact setting screen 15d for setting a contact is displayed on the display unit 15 as shown in FIG.

  The user confirms the contact setting screen 15d and performs an operation of selecting a contact from the contact candidates displayed on the contact setting screen 15d, for example. The setting unit 11a sets an item representing the contact selected in accordance with the user's operation in the contact book data (step SB2). At this time, the setting unit 11a displays an item 15a representing the newly set contact information on the display unit 15, as shown in FIG. When the contact information is newly set, the setting unit 11a continues to display the screen 15e that prompts the user to register the information indicating the connection destination at a position adjacent to the item 15a (same column). good.

  When it is determined in step SB1 that an operation for setting a contact is not performed (step SB1; NO), or after the process of step SB2 is performed, the registration unit 11b newly registers a connection destination. It is determined whether or not an operation has been performed (step SB3). For example, when an operation is performed on the screen of the display unit 15 of the mobile terminal 10 at a position (operation unit 14) for receiving an operation for registering a connection destination, the registration unit 11b performs an operation for newly registering the connection destination. As shown in FIG. 8C, the connection destination registration screen 15f for registering the connection destination is displayed on the display unit 15, as shown in FIG.

  The user confirms the connection destination registration screen 15f, and performs an operation of inputting information representing the connection destination in the input field displayed on the connection destination registration screen 15f. For example, when the user registers information representing a connection destination for making a normal call in the item 15a in which the mobile phone (communication method; telephone) is set as the contact, the user displays the information on the connection destination registration screen 15f. In the input field, an operation for inputting the telephone number of the other party's mobile phone for specifying the connection destination is performed. On the other hand, when registering information representing a connection destination for performing a voice call other than a normal phone call, the user carries an application based on a voice call other than a normal phone call in the input field displayed on the connection destination registration screen 15f. An operation for inputting a location (directory position) stored in the terminal 10, an account name of a partner for specifying a connection destination, information indicating that the processing content is a call, and the like are performed. An item for referring to the directory structure in the mobile terminal 10 is displayed on the connection destination registration screen 15f. The user may specify various information to be input to the input field from the directory structure referred to by selection of this item.

  The registration unit 11b generates information representing a connection destination based on various types of information input in accordance with a user operation, and registers the information in an item representing a corresponding contact (step SB4). At this time, as shown in FIG. 8D, the registration unit 11b displays an icon 15b for identifying the newly registered connection destination in the same column as the item 15a. When information representing a connection destination is newly registered, the registration unit 11b continues to display a screen 15e that prompts the user to register information representing the connection destination at a position adjacent to the displayed icon 15b. May be.

  If it is determined in step SB3 that the operation for registering the connection destination has not been performed (step SB3; NO), or after the processing in step SB4 is performed, the setting unit 11a displays the address of the other party as the contact address. It is determined whether or not an operation for setting is performed (step SB5). For example, when an operation is performed on the screen of the display unit 15 of the mobile terminal 10 at a position (operation unit 14) that accepts an operation for setting an address, the setting unit 11a determines that an operation for setting an address has been performed. (Step SB5; YES), an item representing an address is set in the contact book data, and an item 15g representing an address is displayed on the display unit 15 as shown in FIG.

  The registration unit 11b registers the address of the other party input according to the user's operation in an item representing the set address. The address of the other party may be directly input according to the user's operation, for example, or the address of the other party stored in the storage unit 12 may be registered, for example. The address of the other party may be specified by referring to the directory structure, for example, as in the case of registering information representing the connection destination.

  Furthermore, the registration unit 11b registers a processing destination for performing a predetermined process based on the registered address of the other party in an item representing the set address (step SB6). The processing destination is a website that provides a route search function, map information, and the like. At this time, as shown in FIG. 9, the registration unit 11b displays the item 15g representing the newly set address, and identifies the registered processing destination in the same column as the item 15g. An icon 15h is displayed.

  When it is determined in step SB5 that an operation for setting an address has not been performed (step SB5; NO), or after the processing in step SB6 has been performed, the setting unit 11a newly sets items representing other information. It is determined whether or not an operation for setting to has been performed (step SB7). For example, when an operation is performed on the screen of the display unit 15 of the mobile terminal 10 at a position (operation unit 14) that accepts an operation for setting an arbitrary item, the setting unit 11a sets other information (custom setting). (Step SB7; YES), an item representing the partner's SNS, homepage, etc. set according to the user's operation is set in the contact book data (step SB8). At this time, the registration unit 11b registers a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) for connecting to an SNS or a Web site input in accordance with a user operation in an item representing other corresponding information. Further, as illustrated in FIG. 9, the registration unit 11 b displays, on the display unit 15, URLs 15 j representing link destinations to the respective SNSs and home pages in a column in which items 15 i representing other information are displayed.

  Thereafter, the registration unit 11b determines whether or not an operation to finish editing the contact book data has been performed (step SB9). For example, when an edit completion button displayed on the screen of the display unit 15 of the mobile terminal 10 is operated, the contact book file 12b including the contact book data edited by the processing of steps SB1 to SB8 is stored in the storage unit 12. Store the data and finish the contact book data editing process. On the other hand, when the cancel button displayed on the screen of the display unit 15 of the mobile terminal 10 is operated, the contact book file 12b including the contact book data edited by the processing of the above steps SB1 to SB8 is stored in the storage unit 12. The contact book data editing process is terminated.

  Returning to FIG. 6, after the contact book data editing process in step SA4, the setting unit 11a returns to step SA1 and performs the processes in steps SA1 to SA4 to turn off the mobile terminal 10 or register the contact book by the user. This is repeated until an operation to stop execution of the program 12a is performed.

  Individual contact book data is generated by the above contact book registration process, and the contact book file 12b is sequentially updated. The contact book file 12b stored in the storage unit 12 is read by the control unit 11 in accordance with a user operation. The control unit 11 displays the contact book data selected from the contact book file 12b in accordance with the user operation on the display unit 15. As shown in FIG. 10, the display unit 15 displays various items set in the contact book data and various information registered in the various items.

  As described above, according to the mobile terminal 10 according to the present embodiment, it is possible to generate contact book data in which a plurality of connection destinations for connecting to a contact by communication are registered in the item representing the contact. Thereby, when the contact book data is displayed on the screen of the display unit 15, the user can easily grasp a contact tool that can be used to contact the contact and can use the contact book more effectively.

  In addition, in each contact book data, a processing destination for performing a predetermined process based on the address of the other party as a contact is registered in the item representing the address, and the address of the other party is stored based on the registered processing destination. Available.

  The connection destination registered in the item representing the contact address and the processing destination registered in the item representing the address may be sorted in the order of use frequency, registration order, application name order, or the like. As a result, the connection destination (contact tool) and the processing destination are sorted based on the sort contents set by the user, and the user selects one to use from among the available contact tools and processing destinations. It becomes easy.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the description has been given of registering individual contact book data in the contact book file 12b. However, the user can appropriately select individual contact book data or various items included in the contact book data. Can be edited and deleted.

  Furthermore, the contact book registration process executed by the control unit 11 may include a process of reflecting the updated contact book file 12b on the cloud server when the contact book file 12b is updated. Specifically, the control unit 11 (registration unit 11b) of the mobile terminal 10 updates the contact book file 12b when the contact book file 12b is updated by registering, editing, or deleting individual contact book data. The book file 12b is uploaded together with an account for identifying the user from the communication unit 13 to the cloud server via the network N.

  On the other hand, in this case, as shown in FIG. 11, the cloud server 20 includes a contact book file database 20a that stores the contact book file 12b for each account. The cloud server 20 updates (reflects) the contact book file 12b having the same account stored in the contact book file database 20a based on the contact book file 12b and the account uploaded from the mobile terminal 10.

  Thus, when the contact book file 12b is updated in the mobile terminal 10, synchronization processing is performed, and in the contact book file database 20a, the latest contact book file 12b is managed for each account, and the mobile terminal 10 breaks down. Even if it is lost, the contact book file 12b can be managed more safely. The uploading of the contact book file 12b and the account (synchronization between the mobile terminal 10 and the cloud server 20) may be performed periodically (once a day) according to the user's operation (manual).

  Further, in the above description, the mobile terminal 10 has been described as an example of the contact book registration device. However, the contact book registration device according to the present invention is not limited to a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone or a smartphone. It may be applied to a notebook type or desktop type PC. Further, the contact book file 12b may be generated by a person other than the user acting on its behalf. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, at the store where the user has newly purchased the mobile terminal 10, the user sets various items (contact information, address, etc.) set in each contact book data and various information registered in the various items. (Connection destination (contact tool), processing destination, etc.), user account, password, etc. may be handed over to the store clerk to apply for the creation of the contact book file 12b.

  In this case, the store clerk uses the store terminal 30 installed in the store as a contact book registration device. The store clerk downloads the user's contact book file 12b stored in the contact book file database 20a of the cloud server 20 to the store terminal 30 based on the user's account and password entered on the form passed from the user. This contact book file 12b has individual contact book data (telephone number, mail address, address, link destination, etc.) registered in the (old) mobile terminal before purchase. The store clerk uses the store terminal 30 to enter various items (contact information, address, etc.) set in the individual contact book data entered on the form handed by the user and various information (connection destination ( Individual contact book data is created based on the contact tool) and processing destination. As a result, the contact book file 12b is updated, and the updated contact book file 12b is uploaded from the store terminal 30 to the contact book file database 20a of the cloud server 20. Thereafter, the store clerk notifies the user that the contact book file 12b has been created by telephone or e-mail. Based on the user's account and password, the user downloads the user's contact book file 12b stored in the contact book file database 20a of the cloud server 20 to the mobile terminal 10, and stores the contact book file 12b in the storage unit 12. Remember.

  Similarly, as shown in FIG. 11, the contact book file 12b is obtained from a CTI (Computer Telephony Integration) terminal 40 installed in a call center or the like of a sales company that sells the mobile terminal 10 according to the operation of the operator. It can also be generated. In this way, the user can use the contact book file 12b generated by a person other than the user acting.

  In addition, the contact book registration apparatus according to the present invention can be realized by a normal computer.
