It should be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application can be practiced in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein and that "first" and "second" distinguish objects It is usually one category, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, there may be one or more first objects. In addition, "and/or" in the description and claims means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally means that the related objects are an "or" relationship.

The message display provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a flow chart of the message display method provided by the embodiment of the present application, as shown in Fig. 1, including the following steps:

Step 101, if a first input is received, determine a target area associated with the first application, where the target area includes M application icons of the second application.

Wherein, M is a positive integer.

The first input is used to set the display mode of the message of the first application as the target display mode, and the target display mode is to display the target message in the display area associated with the application icon of the second application, and the target message is: the first A message of part or all of the messages received by the application, or a reminder message corresponding to the message received by the first application. This target display method can host the message of one application on the application icon of another application.

The first input may be voice input, gesture input or touch input. The touch input may be a click input, a drag input, a slide input, or a long press input, and the like.

The first input may be one operation, or multiple sequential operations.

For example, the first input may include an operation of long pressing the first application and then an operation of dragging the application icon of the first application to the application icon of the second application.

For another example, the first input may be an operation of sliding from the application icon of the first application to the application icon of the second application.

For another example, the first input may include an operation of long pressing an application icon of the first application, clicking a control on a pop-up menu, and a series of operations for selecting a target area associated with the first application.

For another example, the first input may be an input to a target control, the target control is related to the first application, and is used to set the display mode of the message of the first application as the target display mode.

In case the first input is received, a target area associated with the first application may be determined, the target area includes M application icons of the second application. In an optional implementation manner, the target area may be a display area of an application icon of a second application, and in another optional implementation manner, the target area may also be a display area including application icons of multiple second applications.

The first application may be a system setting application or a function application, and the second application may be a system setting application or a function application, which is not specifically limited here. The size of the application icon of the second application may be larger than the size of the application icon of the first application, and may also be smaller than or equal to the size of the application icon of the first application, which is not specifically limited here.

The target area may be determined in various manners. For example, according to the first input, the display area specified by the first input may be determined as the target area. For another example, according to the first application, the display area of the second application pre-associated with the first application may be determined as the target area. For another example, the system may also automatically determine the second application, and determine the display area of the application icon of the second application whose usage frequency is greater than the first threshold and/or whose usage time is greater than the second threshold as the target area.

In addition, the display mode of messages of multiple first applications can also be set at the same time through the first input, for example, press and hold two application icons of the first application with two fingers, and drag them to the application icon of the second application . For another example, multiple first applications can be pre-associated, and when an application icon of a first application is dragged onto an application icon of a second application, the display of messages of the associated multiple first applications can be set at the same time Way.

Step 102, when the first application receives a message, display a target message in the target area, the target message is: a message including part or all of the content of the message received by the first application, Alternatively, the reminder message corresponding to the message received by the first application.

In this step, the content of the message received by the first application may be text, picture or video, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

The message of the first application sent by the server may be received, or the message of the first application sent by other terminals may be received, which is not specifically limited here.

Correspondingly, when the first application receives a message, it may display the entire content of the message in the target area, or display a part of the content of the message in the target area, and the content of this part may be key content such as the title of the message , the reminder message corresponding to the message may also be displayed in the target area, such as the sending information of the message. At this time, the reminder message may be "a message sent by XX, please check it quickly", which is not specifically limited here.

The target message can be displayed in part or all of the display area of the application icon of the second application, or can be displayed in the blank area of the target area, and can also include the display area and blank area of the application icon of the second application in the target area The target message is displayed in the display area of the area, which is not specifically limited here.

In an optional implementation manner, as shown in FIG. 2 , the target area is the display area 201 of the application icon of the second application. The display area 201 may be an area within the size range of the application icon of the second application. In the display area 201 The title of the message received by the first application is displayed in a partial display area of . In addition, a small icon 202 can be leaked around the application icon of the second application as a drawer handle, and the icon 202 can be the application icon of the first application, so as to remind the user that the application icon of the second application can be displayed in the display area. A message received by the first application.

Messages of multiple applications can be displayed in the display area of the application icon of the second application, and multiple applications can be set on the application icon of the second application respectively. Two applications are installed, namely application 1 and application 3, and a small icon 301 (corresponding to application 1) and 302 (corresponding to application 3) are leaked above and below the application icon of application 2 respectively as drawer handles.

When App 1 and App 3 receive a message, they can alternately or superimpose display the application icon and target message of App 1 in the corresponding area, and alternately or superimpose display the application icon and target message of App 3, and at the same time allow the user to set The priorities of messages of different applications, the priorities of different types of messages of an application, and the display area of the messages occupy the area of the display area of the application icon of the application 2 . As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the application icon 401 of application 1 and the title of the message received by application 1 are alternately displayed in the lower display area of the application icon of application 2, and in the upper display area of the application icon of application 2 The application icon 402 of application 3 and the reminder message corresponding to the message received by application 3 are alternately displayed.

It should be noted that the target message of the first application and the application icon of the second application may be overlapped and displayed in the target area, that is, the target message may be displayed overlapping on the application icon of the second application.

Further, as shown in Figure 6, when the user clicks the application icon of application 1 or clicks on the target message, the application 1 can be started and jump to the landing page of the message. At this time, the target in the display area of the application icon of the second application Messages are no longer displayed.

In another optional implementation manner, as shown in FIG. 7 , the target area 701 includes the display area of a plurality of application icons of the second application, and also includes blank areas between the plurality of application icons, which are created by the second application. The target message can be displayed in the target area 701 , including the display area 702 of the application icon of the second application and the blank area.

Optionally, the displayed content of the message received by the first application can be displayed. As shown in FIG. Realize the display of different forms of messages, and the notification forms are more abundant and flexible.

In addition, in order to prevent the user from being unable to click the application icon of the second application, when displaying the message received by the first application, the message may not completely cover the application icon of the second application, that is, not completely match the application icon of the second application. The icons are displayed overlapping.

The target message can be displayed in the target area immediately when the first application receives the message, or can be displayed in the target area within a preset time period before the historical preferred usage time of the second application, for example, The user usually clicks the application icon of application 2 during the lunch break at noon (such as 12:00-12:30) to use application 2. In this case, the target message corresponding to application 1 can be displayed on the application at 11:50 2 application icon, in this way, the user can pay attention to the target message when using the application 2, thereby improving the display timeliness of the message, and at the same time increasing the click-through rate of the message.

In this embodiment, when the first input is received, the target area associated with the first application is determined, and the target area includes M application icons of the second application; when the first application receives the message In some cases, a target message is displayed in the target area, and the target message is: a message including part or all of the content of the message received by the first application, or a message corresponding to the message received by the first application Reminder message. In this way, by specifically displaying the target message corresponding to the first application in the target area including M application icons of the second application, the user can pay attention to the target message corresponding to the first application when paying attention to the application icon of the second application, Further, the notification effect of the application message can be improved.

Optionally, when M is equal to 1, the size of the application icon of the second application is larger than the size of the application icon of the first application;

When M is greater than 1, the size of the application icon of the second application is smaller than or equal to the size of the application icon of the first application.

In this embodiment, when M is equal to 1, the target area is the display area of the application icon of the second application. In this case, the size of the application icon of the second application is larger than the size of the application icon of the first application. At this time, the target area may refer to an area within the size range of the application icon of the second application. In this way, a large display area can be determined to display the target message corresponding to the first application, which can improve the utilization rate of large application icons while breaking the notification limitation of application messages and improving the flexibility of notification of application messages.

In the case where M is greater than 1, the target area is a display area including application icons of a plurality of second applications, and in this case, the size of each application icon of the second application is smaller than or equal to that of the application icon of the first application. size. In this way, the large display area composed of the display areas of multiple application icons can be used to display the target message corresponding to the first application. While breaking the notification limitation of the application message and improving the flexibility of the notification of the application message, different forms can also be realized. The display of specific messages, such as text, pictures, or videos, makes notifications rich and flexible.

Optionally, step 101 specifically includes:

When the first input of associating the application icon of the first application with M application icons of the second application is received, the first display area is determined as the target area, and when M is 1, The first display area is a display area of application icons of the second application, and when M is greater than 1, the first display area displays the M application icons of the second application;

When the first operation and the second operation are received in sequence, the second display area is determined as the target area, the first operation is an operation on the application icon of the first application, and the second operation is an operation on the application icon of the first application. An operation of the second display area displaying at least two application icons of the second application, the first input includes the first operation and the second operation;

When the first input to the target object is received, the third display area of the application icons of the M second applications associated with the first application in advance determines the target area;

When the first input of the target object is received, the fourth display area used to display the history message of the first application is determined as the target area, and the fourth display area displays the M second the app's app icon;

When the first input to the target object is received, the fifth display area of the application icons of the M second applications whose usage information satisfies the preset condition is determined as the target area, and the usage information satisfies the preset condition. The setting conditions include: the frequency of use is greater than the first threshold, and/or the time of use is greater than the second threshold;

Wherein, the target object is an application icon of the first application or a target control related to the first application.

In this embodiment, in an optional embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8 , the user can select a first application, long press and move the application icon 801 of the first application, and drag the application icon 801 of the first application To the application icon 802 of the second application, that is, to associate the application icon 801 of the first application with the application icon 802 of the second application, and the application icon 802 of the second application may be larger than the application icon 801 of the first application.

In this case, when the application icon of the first application is close to the bottom edge of the large application icon of the second application in the upper left, an animation may appear at the bottom of the application icon of the second application, and an icon drawer may be stretched out, as shown in Figure 9 Show. The user can drag the application icon of the first application to the icon drawer. After letting go, the icon drawer stretches back, and only a small icon is exposed as a handle of the drawer, as shown in FIG. 10 .

Correspondingly, the display area of the application icon of the second application may be determined as the target area. In this way, a large display area can be determined to display the target message corresponding to the first application. In this way, the message of one application or multiple applications can be parasitic on the application icon of another application.

In another optional implementation manner, the user may swipe sequentially from the application icons of the first application, and during the swipe process, the display area formed by the plurality of application icons of the second application selected by sliding may be determined as the target area.

In yet another optional implementation, as shown in Figure 11, the first operation can be performed by long pressing the application icon of the first application, and a menu 1101 will appear, click the "Modify" button on the menu 1101 to enter the modification (hack) Setting mode, the hack setting mode is used to set the display mode of the application message to the target display mode. Clicking on the blank space between the application icons will automatically display a rectangular area, as shown in FIG. 12 , the rectangular area 1201 may include the application icons around the position that the user long presses on the blank space.

Afterwards, the user can adjust the rectangular area, as shown in FIG. 13 , the user can drag the edge of the rectangular area to adjust the length and width of the rectangular area, thereby adjusting the area of the display area. Finally, when the user determines the display area, the user can press and hold the rectangular area (the rectangular area is the second display area at this time) to execute the second operation, and a menu will pop up, which includes a control, which is "confirm modification", click on the The control, the target display mode is set successfully, and the rectangular area disappears. Correspondingly, the second display area may be determined as the target area.

In this way, the message of one application can be parasitic on the application icons of multiple applications.

In yet another optional implementation manner, the user may perform the first input on the application icon of the first application or a target control related to the first application, and correspondingly, M second applications pre-associated with the first application may be obtained, and The third display area of the application icons of the M second applications is determined as the target area. In this way, the parasitic second application in the target display mode is automatically selected to realize dynamic and intelligent notification.

In yet another optional implementation manner, the user may perform the first input on the application icon of the first application or the target control related to the first application, and correspondingly, the fourth display for displaying the history information of the first application may be The area is determined as the target area. For example, the historical messages of the first application were displayed on the application icon of the second application before, and when the user needs to set the target display mode of the message of the first application again, the message display device can default the application icon of the second application The display area of is determined as the target area. In this way, displaying the target message corresponding to the first application in the target area can match the user's habit of reading and using historical messages of the first application.

Wherein, the historical messages may refer to messages received by the first application before exiting the target display mode set for the first application last time. For example, before exiting the target display mode set for the first application last time, the message of the first application is usually displayed in the fourth display area. Correspondingly, after exiting the target display mode, when the target display mode of the first application is set again, the fourth display area may be automatically determined as the target area.

In yet another optional implementation manner, the user may perform the first input on the application icon of the first application or the target control related to the first application, and correspondingly, the frequency of use is greater than the first threshold, and/or the time of use is greater than The fifth display area of the application icons of the M second applications of the second threshold is determined as the target area. In this way, displaying the message received by the first application in the target area can increase the click-through rate of the message.

Optionally, M is equal to 1, and step 103 specifically includes:

determining a first target display area in the target area, where the first target display area is a partial display area of application icons of the second application;

The target message and the application icon of the first application are alternately or superimposedly displayed in the first target display area.

In this embodiment, the target message can be displayed in the partial display area of the application icon of the second application, for example, the key content of the message or the reminder message corresponding to the message can be displayed in the partial display area of the application icon of the second application. When key content is displayed, it can be scrolled and played.

The first target display area may be determined in the target area according to the associated position indicated by the first input. For example, when the user drags the application icon of the first application from below to the application icon of the second application, the associated position is For the position below the application icon of the second application, the display area below the application icon of the second application is determined as the first target display area. Alternatively, a preset display area in the target area may also be determined as the first target display area.

Correspondingly, the target message is displayed in the first target display area. In an optional implementation manner, the target message and the application icon of the first application may be alternately displayed in the first target display area. In another optional implementation manner, the target message and the application icon of the first application may be superimposedly displayed in the first target display area. The application icon of the first application displays the target message and the application icon of the first application at the same time.

In this way, it is possible to parasitize the messages of one application or multiple applications on the application icon of another application, so that when the user pays attention to the application icon of the second application, he can pay attention to the target message corresponding to the first application, and then the application information can be improved. notification effect.

Optionally, M is greater than 1, and step 103 specifically includes:

A second target display area is determined in the target area, the second target display area overlaps at most the display area of the application icon of the target application, and the target application is any second of the M second applications. application;

A target message is displayed in the second target display area.

In this embodiment, the second target display area can be determined in the target area, and the determination principle is not to affect the user's use of the application icon of the second application. Therefore, the difference between the second target display area and the application icon of the target application The display areas cannot completely overlap, but can only partially overlap at most, including non-overlapping or partial overlapping.

In an optional implementation manner, the second target display area may be that the display areas of each of the M second applications partially overlap each other, as shown in FIG. 7 , so that while maximizing the display of the target message, The use of the application icon of the second application by the user may not be affected.

Correspondingly, the target message is displayed in the second target display area, so that the message of one application can be parasitic on the application icons of multiple applications.

In an optional implementation manner, the display content of the message may be displayed in the second target display area. In this way, a large display area composed of multiple application display areas can be used to display different forms of message content, such as text, pictures, or videos, and the notification forms are richer and more flexible.

Optionally, step 103 specifically includes:

Acquiring the historical preferred usage time corresponding to the M second applications;

Displaying target messages in the target area within a preset period of time before the historical preference usage time.

In this embodiment, the historical preferred usage time can be understood as the time when the user usually uses the M second applications, for example, for application 2, the user usually uses it between 12:00 noon and 12:30 noon. There may be one or more than one historical preferred usage time, which is not specifically limited here.

The target message may be displayed in the target area within a preset time period before the historical preferred usage time, and the preset time period may be set according to actual conditions, and is not specifically limited here. For example, for application 2, the user usually uses it between 12:00 and 12:30 noon, then at 11:30, the target message corresponding to application 1 can be displayed in the target area including the application icon of application 2, so that the user When using the application 2, attention can be paid to the target message, so that the display timeliness of the message can be improved, and the click-through rate of the message can be improved.

In the case where there are multiple historical preferred usage times, the target message can be displayed in the target area within the preset time period before the historical preferred usage time in chronological order, so that the display timeliness of the message can be further improved Sexuality, and improve the click-through rate of the message.
