Problems solved by technology

[0002] When traditional instant messaging software searches for friends or groups, generally only a single Quanpin search, Jianpin search or Chinese character search can be used

When using Jianpin search, the instant messaging software will recommend more friend names or group names that match the Jianpin input by the user. Users often cannot quickly find the object they want to search from the recommendation list, and the search efficiency is low.

Although the full spell search or Chinese character search can accurately match the object that the user is actually searching for, both of these search methods require the user to be able to input keywords accurately

Due to the variety of Chinese dialects, affected by the dialect, it is difficult for some users to accurately spell the full spelling corresponding to the friend name or group name, which will also affect the efficiency of accurately inputting the corresponding Chinese characters, and the user experience is poor

Therefore, the single search method adopted by traditional instant messaging software cannot improve the convenience and search efficiency of users' search operations at the same time.
