detailed description

1 is a schematic diagram of message push in the related art. As shown in FIG. 1, it is assumed that user A simultaneously logs in an instant messaging application on a mobile phone and a computer, and when a friend "white" sends an instant communication message to the user A, There may be two situations:

In one case, when the server simultaneously sends an instant messaging message to all the electronic devices of the logged-in user A account, the mobile phone and the computer will simultaneously receive an unread notification of the instant messaging message of "small white sent a picture"; In one case, according to the prior setting or default mechanism of the user A, only one device in the mobile phone or the computer can receive the unread notification of the instant messaging message "small white sent a picture".

Then, for the first case, user A only needs to perform an unread message viewing operation on either the mobile phone or the computer. For example, user A performs an unread message viewing operation on the computer, then the mobile phone The received unread message belongs to the redundant message, and the user A needs to manually enter the display page of the unread message and exit, so that the reminder of the unread message can be eliminated, and the user A's daily life is affected.

In the second case, suppose that User A has set to receive unread messages only on the computer, and when User A goes out of business, if he forgets to log out on the computer, even if he carries the mobile phone with the registered account , still can not receive any unread messages, causing great trouble to User A. Similarly, when user A is working or playing on a computer, it is obviously more convenient and efficient to perform unread message prompts directly on the computer, but assume that user A sets to receive unread messages only on the mobile phone, even if the computer I have already completed the account login and still can't receive any account. Why did not read the message reminder, User A can still only view and reply to the message through the mobile phone.

Therefore, the present application aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the related art by improving the message pushing mechanism. In order to further illustrate this application, the following examples are provided:

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a message pushing method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 2, the method is applied to a server, and may include the following steps:

Step 202: Obtain a login status of the user account.

Step 204: When detecting that the user account is logged in on a predefined non-mobile device, determine a location relationship between the non-mobile device and a predefined mobile device.

In the present application, if it is defined as "non-mobile device", it means that the user does not carry the device with him or her, and is often used in the company office or at home for entertainment, such as a computer, a tablet, etc.; if defined as "mobile device", Indicates that the user will carry the device with him or her, such as a mobile phone. Of course, the user can define the attributes of each electronic device in advance, regardless of whether the electronic device itself is a mobile device, such as a computer, a tablet, a mobile phone, etc., and can be defined as a "non-mobile device" or a "mobile device."

In the present application, the positional relationship between the non-mobile device and the mobile device can be determined in various ways, and several possible ways are exemplified below.

Embodiment 1

As an exemplary embodiment, the server receives a notification message sent by any one of the mobile device and the non-mobile device, the notification message indicating whether the any device maintains a preset local area network connection with another device;

If the preset local area network connection is maintained, determining that the mobile device is in the use range of the non-mobile device; if the preset local area network connection is not maintained, determining that the mobile device is away from the non-mobile device The scope of use.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of determining a positional relationship between devices according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 3, it is assumed that in this scenario, user A owns a mobile phone and a computer, wherein the mobile phone is a predefined mobile phone. Device, while the computer is a predefined non-mobile device. When user A logs in to the same account on the mobile phone and the computer respectively, the server can know that there are multiple devices logging in at the same time.

The server can initiate a request to the computer (or mobile phone), assuming that the connection is established between the mobile phone and the computer via Bluetooth, the computer can return a notification message to the server to inform the Bluetooth connection between the two. Due to the distance limitation of the establishment of the Bluetooth connection, if the Bluetooth connection is normal, the distance between the mobile phone and the computer is very short, and the user A is likely to be using the computer, and the mobile phone is placed beside the computer (in the range of use of the computer). Therefore, it is possible to push a message to the computer, so that user A can quickly view and reply the push message while using the computer; if Bluetooth The connection is disconnected, indicating that the distance between the mobile phone and the computer is very long. User A may not be in front of the computer, but carry the mobile phone out, and the server can push the message to the mobile phone to avoid the user A cannot view it in time when sending to the computer. message notification.

In this embodiment, any form of local area network connection may be adopted between the mobile phone and the computer. For example, in addition to the Bluetooth connection, the preset local area network connection may also include: near field communication established between the non-mobile device and the mobile device. (NFC) connections, non-mobile devices and mobile devices connected to the same WIFI hotspot.

Embodiment 2

In another exemplary embodiment, the server separately receives the notification message sent by the mobile device and the non-mobile device, where the notification message includes real-time geographic location information of the corresponding sender;

And determining, according to the real-time geographic location information, a separation distance between the non-mobile device and the mobile device; wherein, if the separation distance is less than or equal to a preset distance, determining that the mobile device is in the The range of use of the non-mobile device; if the separation distance is greater than the preset distance, determining that the mobile device leaves the use range of the non-mobile device.

FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of another determining a positional relationship between devices according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 4, a "predefined mobile device" is still used as a mobile phone, and a predefined non-mobile device is used. For the example of a computer, when user A logs in to the same account on the mobile phone and the computer respectively, the server can know that there are multiple devices logging in at the same time.

The server can separately initiate a request to the mobile phone and the computer, and the mobile phone and the computer each obtain their own real-time geographic location information, and return the real-time geographic location information to the server through the notification message 1 and the notification message 2. Then, the server can be based on the distance between the two real-time geographic location information. If the distance is very close (less than or equal to the preset distance), it means that user A is likely to be using the computer, and the mobile phone is placed next to the computer (located on the computer). Within the scope of use, it is possible to push messages to the computer, so that user A can quickly view and reply the push message while using the computer; if the distance is larger (greater than the preset distance), it means that user A is probably not in front of the computer. Instead, the mobile phone can go out and the server can push a message to the mobile phone to avoid the user A not being able to view the message reminder in time when sending to the computer.

Among them, the mobile phone and the computer can obtain their real-time geographical location information in various ways, such as built-in GPS (or other positioning system) chip, base station positioning information, location information of the number segment of the IP address, etc., this application does not limit.

Embodiment 3

As still another exemplary embodiment, the server may separately acquire the non-mobile device and the network of the mobile device Network attribute information;

And determining, according to the network attribute information, that the non-mobile device is in the same local area network as the mobile device, determining that the mobile device is in a use range of the non-mobile device; If the mobile device is not in the same local area network as the mobile device, it is determined that the mobile device leaves the use range of the non-mobile device.

FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of still determining a positional relationship between devices according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 5, a "predefined mobile device" is still used as a mobile phone, and a predefined non-mobile device is used. For the example of a computer, when user A logs in to the same account on the mobile phone and the computer respectively, the server can know that there are multiple devices logging in at the same time.

After receiving the message sent by the mobile phone and the computer, for example, the message received during the account login period, the server can understand the network environment where the mobile phone and the computer are located, such as the network attribute information such as the IP address, and then can judge according to this Is the phone and computer in the same local area network? If wired connection is used, the local area network is limited by the physical length of the network cable, the site limitation, etc. If the wireless connection is used, the local area network is limited by the gradual attenuation of the wireless signal with distance, the blocking of obstacles, etc., and thus the same local area network. Electronic devices within the network must have a short separation distance. Therefore, when it is determined that the mobile phone and the computer are in the same local area network, it indicates that user A is likely to be using the computer, and the mobile phone is placed beside the computer (in the range of use of the computer), so that the message can be pushed to the computer, so that user A is using At the same time, the computer can quickly view and reply the push message; if it is not in the same local area network, it means that user A is likely not to be in front of the computer, but to carry the mobile phone out, the server can push the message to the mobile phone to avoid the user when sending to the computer. A can't see the message reminder in time.

Step 206: When the mobile device is in the use range of the non-mobile device, push an unread message to the non-mobile device; when the mobile device leaves the use range of the non-mobile device, move to the mobile device The device pushes an unread message.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart of another message pushing method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 6 , the method is applied to a server, and may include the following steps:

Step 602: Obtain a login status of the user account.

Step 604: Determine whether the user account has multiple devices logging in at the same time. If yes, go to step 608, otherwise go to step 606.

Step 606: Perform a message push operation by using a corresponding policy according to the current actual situation.

Step 608, determining a positional relationship between each other for a plurality of electronic devices that are simultaneously logged in.

In this embodiment, the positional relationship between multiple electronic devices may be determined by using any of the embodiments in FIG. 3-5, and details are not described herein again.

By obtaining a positional relationship between multiple electronic devices, such as when there is a local area network connection between multiple electronic devices or at the same place, indicating that the user may be using a predefined non-mobile device therein, then proceeding to step 606, Performing message push to the predefined non-mobile device; when multiple electronic devices do not have a local area network connection or are not in the same place, indicating that the user may carry a predefined mobile device to go out, then when proceeding to step 606, The predefined mobile device can perform message push.

In step 610, it is determined whether the positional relationship between the plurality of electronic devices changes. If the change is made, the process proceeds to step 612. Otherwise, the process returns to step 608.

In step 612, the duration of the change of the positional relationship is recorded. If the preset duration is exceeded, the process proceeds to step 614, otherwise, the process returns to step 608.

In step 614, the push rule is changed according to the changed positional relationship.

In this embodiment, it is assumed that the mobile device pre-defined by the user A is a mobile phone carried by the user, and the predefined non-mobile device is a tablet in the home, and when the user goes out to work during the day, even if the mobile phone and the tablet simultaneously log in to the user's instant communication application. The server can still obtain the real-time geographic location information of the mobile phone and the tablet, respectively, to determine that the two are far apart, and only perform message push to the mobile phone; and if the user finds that the file is forgotten when going to work, and needs to go home to retrieve the file, the server It can be detected that when the user goes home, the mobile phone and the tablet are close to each other; but the user just returns the company immediately after taking the file, so the server can detect that the mobile phone and the tablet are restored to a distant state in a short time. Therefore, the policy of performing message push only to the mobile phone is maintained; and if the user keeps the mobile phone and the tablet close to each other for a long time after returning home from work, it can be changed to a policy of performing message push to the tablet.

In addition, in any of the foregoing embodiments of the present application, the server may further detect that the user initiates a browsing interface operation on any one of the predefined non-mobile devices or the predefined mobile device (ie, browsing the application corresponding to the push message). Interface); if detected, the push message generated only on another device is pushed to the any device as a history, so that the user can view all the message push content on each device without having to be in multiple devices. Repeated comparison and viewing between devices.

Moreover, in the above-described embodiments of the present application, when an unread message pushed to a predefined non-mobile device is not read within a preset time, the unread message can be pushed to a predefined mobile device. Since the user may not be using a non-mobile device, or the message prompting method of the non-mobile device fails to attract the user's attention, the user is often unable to Being aware of unread messages and viewing them in time can ensure that users can complete the viewing of the messages and avoid omissions by performing corresponding message pushes to the mobile device.
