Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Embodiments of the present application relate to the field of human-computer interaction, and in particular, to a method for processing a notification and an electronic device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, as a kind of identity authentication technology based on biological characteristics, the fingerprint recognition technology is widely applied to various electronic devices (such as mobile phones, tablet computers, etc.). The specific implementation process of the fingerprint recognition is as follows: after detecting a touch operation of a user, a fingerprint sensor on an electronic device collects the fingerprint of the user, and when it is determined that the collected fingerprint matches a pre-stored fingerprint, a corresponding operation is performed. For example, if the user needs to unlock the mobile phone, there is no need to input a complicated unlocking password, but a simple touch operation is directly performed, and the mobile phone can be successfully unlocked.

[0003] In the prior art, when an electronic device receives a new notification (such as a new short message notification, etc.) under a lock screen, the user needs to first perform fingerprint unlocking to enter the main interface of the electronic device, then find a related application icon, click the icon to open the application, and finally find a related graphical user interface of the application to see the specific content of the above notification. It can be seen that the interaction scheme between the above electronic device and the user is very complex, which greatly reduces the use efficiency of the electronic device. SUMMARY

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, embodiments of the present application provide various methods for processing a notification and an electronic device, which greatly improve the human-computer interaction ability of the electronic device, improve the processing efficiency of the electronic device, simplify the operation steps of the user, and also improve the user experience.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present application provide a method for processing a notification, which can be implemented on an electronic device with a touch screen and a fingerprint recognizer. The method can specifically include:

[0006] displaying a lock screen interface on the touch screen, the lock screen interface including a notification and a fingerprint unlocking identifier; wherein the notification is displayed in a first region of the lock screen interface, and the fingerprint unlocking identifier is displayed in a second region of the lock screen interface;

[0007] detecting, by the electronic device, a touch event on the touch screen, the touch event including a first touch position on the touch screen and a second touch position on the touch screen, the first touch position corresponding to the first region, and the second touch position corresponding to the second region;

[0008] in response to the touch event, collecting, by the electronic device, a fingerprint at the second touch position and performing verification on the fingerprint;

[0009] After the fingerprint verification passes, the electronic device unlocks the screen and displays a graphical user interface of the application corresponding to the notification.

[0010] The above embodiment can quickly open the application corresponding to the notification displayed in the lock screen interface without tedious operation of the user, greatly improves the processing efficiency of the electronic device, simplifies the operation steps of the user, and improves the user experience.

[0011] In some possible implementations, the notification is displayed in the first area of the lock screen interface, and specifically, the electronic device can determine whether the received notification is a specific notification, and the specific notification is a notification bound to the second area. If the electronic device determines that the notification is not a specific notification, the notification is displayed in the first area. Displaying the specific notification of interest to the user in the specific area (for example, the second area) can ensure that the user can instantly and quickly obtain the latest message, and if it is not the specific notification of interest to the user, it is not displayed in the specific area.

[0012] In some possible implementations, the specific notification can be a notification with the highest priority, a notification corresponding to a specific application, or a notification corresponding to a specific contact in an application. The user can set which way to determine the specific notification.

[0013] In some possible implementations, the second area is a fixed display area on the lock screen interface. The position of the touch screen corresponding to the second area can be the position of the fingerprint recognizer. The second area in the lock screen interface is actually overlapped with the position of the fingerprint recognizer on the touch screen, which facilitates the user to quickly perform fingerprint unlocking after selecting the notification.

[0014] In some possible implementations, the second touch position is configured with the fingerprint recognizer, and the fingerprint recognizer is integrated in the touch screen.

[0015] In some possible implementations, in response to the touch event, the electronic device highlights the notification or highlights the fingerprint unlocking identifier. In this way, the user can intuitively know which notification will be opened.

[0016] In some possible implementations, the notification is highlighted, and specifically, the electronic device highlights the notification to different degrees according to the priority of the notification. The highlighting degrees of the notifications with different priorities are different, which further enables the user to intuitively understand which notification is important and which notification is not important.

[0017] In some possible implementation manners, the lock screen interface further includes a prompt box, which is configured to display prompt information related to unlocking on the lock screen interface; and the prompt box is displayed in the second display area. In combination with the fingerprint unlocking icon, the prompt box can further prompt and guide the user on how to perform the next operation, thereby further improving the user experience.

[0085] The various components of the mobile phone 100 will be described below in conjunction with Figure 1 :

[0086] The processor 101 is the control center of the mobile phone 100, connects various parts of the mobile phone 100 by various interfaces and lines, and performs various functions and processes data of the mobile phone 100 by running or executing application programs (hereinafter referred to as Apps) stored in the memory 103 and calling data and instructions stored in the memory 103. In some embodiments, the processor 101 can include one or more processing units; the processor 101 can also integrate an application processor and a modem processor; wherein the application processor mainly processes operating systems, user interfaces and application programs, etc., and the modem processor mainly processes wireless communication. It can be understood that the above-mentioned modem processor can also not be integrated into the processor 101. For example, the processor 101 can be a Kirin 960 chip manufactured by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. In some embodiments of the present application, the above-mentioned processor 101 can also include a fingerprint verification chip for verifying the collected fingerprint.

[0087] The radio frequency circuit 102 can be used for receiving and sending wireless signals in the process of transmitting information or calling. Specifically, the radio frequency circuit 102 can receive the downlink data of the base station and process it to the processor 101; in addition, it can send the data related to the uplink to the base station. Generally, the radio frequency circuit includes but is not limited to an antenna, at least one amplifier, a transceiver, a coupler, a low noise amplifier, a duplexer, etc. In addition, the radio frequency circuit 102 can also communicate with other devices through wireless communication. The wireless communication can use any communication standard or protocol, including but not limited to Global System for Mobile Communication, General Packet Radio Service, Code Division Multiple Access, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access, Long Term Evolution, Email, Short Message Service, etc.

[0088] The memory 103 is used to store application programs and data, and the processor 101 executes various functions and data processing of the mobile phone 100 by running the application programs and data stored in the memory 103. The memory 103 mainly includes a program storage area and a data storage area, wherein the program storage area can store an operating system, at least one application program required by a function (such as a sound playing function, an image playing function, etc.); the data storage area can store data created when the mobile phone 100 is used (such as audio data, a phone book, etc.). In addition, the memory 103 can include a high-speed random access memory, and can also include a non-volatile memory, such as a magnetic disk storage device, a flash memory device or other volatile solid-state memory device, etc. The memory 103 can store various operating systems, such as the operating system developed by Apple Inc. the operating system developed by Google Inc.

[0089] The touchscreen 104 may include a touch-sensitive surface 104-1 and a display 104-2. The touch-sensitive surface 104-1 (e.g., a touch panel) can collect touch events from the user of the mobile phone 100 on or near the touchscreen (e.g., operations performed by the user using a finger, stylus, or any suitable object on or near the touch-sensitive surface 104-1), and send the collected touch information to other devices such as the processor 101. Touch events near the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 can be termed hover touch; hover touch refers to a situation where the user does not need to directly touch the touchpad to select, move, or drag a target (e.g., an icon), but only needs to be near the electronic device to perform the desired function. In hover touch applications, the terms "touch" and "contact" do not imply direct contact with the touchscreen, but rather contact near or close to it. The touch-sensitive surface 104-1 capable of hover touch can be implemented using capacitive, infrared, or ultrasonic sensors. The touch-sensitive surface 104-1 may include a touch detection device and a touch controller. The touch detection device detects the user's touch location and the signal generated by the touch operation, transmitting the signal to the touch controller. The touch controller receives touch information from the touch detection device, converts it into touch point coordinates, and sends it to the processor 101. The touch controller can also receive and execute instructions sent by the processor 101. Furthermore, the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 can be implemented using various types of sensors, such as resistive, capacitive, infrared, and surface acoustic waves. The display (also called a screen) 104-2 can be used to display information input by the user or information provided to the user, as well as various menus of the mobile phone 100. The display 104-2 can be configured using liquid crystal displays, organic light-emitting diodes, etc. The touch-sensitive surface 104-1 can cover the display 104-2. When the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 detects a touch event on or near it, it transmits the information to the processor 101 to determine the type of touch event. Subsequently, the processor 101 provides corresponding visual output on the display 104-2 based on the type of touch event. Although... Figure 1In some embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 and the display screen 104-2 are implemented as two separate components to achieve the input and output functions of the mobile phone 100, but in some embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 and the display screen 104-2 can be integrated to achieve the input and output functions of the mobile phone 100. It can be understood that the touch screen 104 is stacked by multiple layers of materials, and only the touch-sensitive surface (layer) and the display screen (layer) are shown in the embodiments of the present application, and other layers are not recorded in the embodiments of the present application. In addition, in some other embodiments of the present application, the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 can be arranged on the display 104-2, and the size of the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 is larger than the size of the display screen 104-2, so that the display screen 104-2 is completely covered under the touch-sensitive surface 104-1, or the above-mentioned touch-sensitive surface 104-1 can be arranged in the form of a full panel on the front of the mobile phone 100, that is, the touch of the user on the front of the mobile phone 100 can be sensed by the mobile phone, so that the full touch experience of the front of the mobile phone can be achieved. In some other embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface 104-1 is arranged in the form of a full panel on the front of the mobile phone 100, and the display screen 104-2 can also be arranged in the form of a full panel on the front of the mobile phone 100, so that the frameless structure can be achieved on the front of the mobile phone.

[0090] In various embodiments of the present application, the mobile phone 100 can also have a fingerprint identification function. For example, a fingerprint identifier 112 can be arranged on the back of the mobile phone 100 (for example, below the rear camera), or arranged on the front of the mobile phone 100 (for example, below the touch screen 104). As shown in Figure 2A , the fingerprint identifier 112 below the touch screen 104 of the mobile phone 100 can collect a fingerprint in one touch event. As shown in Figure 2B , there is an area 201 for placing a camera on the back of the mobile phone 100, two cameras are arranged in the area 201 to enhance the quality of image acquisition; the fingerprint identifier 112 is arranged below the area 201, and the fingerprint identifier 112 can collect a fingerprint in one touch event.

[0091] In addition, the fingerprint identification function can also be achieved by arranging the fingerprint identifier 112 in the touch screen 104, that is, the fingerprint identifier 112 can be integrated with the touch screen 104 to achieve the fingerprint identification function of the mobile phone 100. In this case, the fingerprint identifier 112 can be arranged in the touch screen 104, can be part of the touch screen 104, or can be arranged in the touch screen 104 in other ways. As shown in Figure 2CAs shown, four different locations in the touch screen 104 are configured with four fingerprint sensors 112-1, 112-2, 112-3 and 112-4, and the touch screen 104 can simultaneously acquire multiple touch events, and only collect a fingerprint of one touch event or collect all fingerprints of all touch events. In some other embodiments, the above-mentioned four fingerprint sensors can be located in the lower half of the touch screen 104, and in particular, the fingerprint sensors 112 can be configured in the area of the touch screen 104 that can be reached by the user's thumb when the user holds the mobile phone 100, so as to facilitate the user to operate the mobile phone with one hand.

[0092] In addition, the fingerprint sensors 112 can also be implemented as a full-panel fingerprint sensor, so that the touch screen 104 can be regarded as a panel that can collect fingerprints at any location. The fingerprint sensors 112 can send the collected fingerprints to the processor 101 for processing (such as fingerprint verification, etc.) by the processor 101. The main component of the fingerprint sensors 112 in the embodiments of the present application is a fingerprint sensor, which can use any type of sensing technology, including but not limited to optical, capacitive, piezoelectric or ultrasonic sensing technology, etc.

[0093] In the embodiments of the present application, the fingerprint can be collected at a fixed location in the touch screen 104, or at any location on the touch screen 104, or multiple touch events can be simultaneously acquired on the touch screen 104, and the fingerprint sensors 112 can only collect a fingerprint of one touch event or collect all fingerprints of all touch events. For the specific technology of integrating the fingerprint sensors in the touch screen in the embodiments of the present application, please refer to some specific technical solutions in the prior art, which will not be described here.

[0094] In some embodiments of the present application, in order to reduce power consumption when collecting fingerprints in the touch screen, the mobile phone 100 can turn on or turn off the power supply of the fingerprint recognizer 112 under certain conditions. For example, the mobile phone 100 can turn on the power supply of the fingerprint recognizer when detecting a touch event of a user on a specific position of the touch screen 104, so that the mobile phone 100 performs fingerprint recognition, and when the mobile phone 100 does not detect a touch event of the user on the specific position of the touch screen 104, the power supply of the fingerprint recognizer is not turned on, i.e., the mobile phone 100 turns off the fingerprint recognition function. The above-mentioned touch event can be that the user presses the touch screen hard enough to reach a predetermined threshold, and then the power supply of the fingerprint recognizer is turned on. In some other embodiments of the present application, the mobile phone 100 can display a switch control related to fingerprint recognition in a setting menu, so that the user manually starts or turns off the fingerprint recognition function. In some other embodiments of the present application, the mobile phone 100 can also start or turn off the fingerprint recognition function according to certain conditions. For example, the mobile phone can start or turn off the fingerprint recognition function according to different geographical positions; when the position of the mobile phone is at home, the fingerprint recognition function is turned off, because home is a very private and safe place, and fingerprint verification is not needed; when the position of the mobile phone is in a public place such as a coffee shop, the fingerprint recognition function is turned on, because the public place is less private and less safe than home, and the mobile phone needs to perform fingerprint verification such as unlocking the screen.

[0095] The mobile phone 100 can also include a Bluetooth device 105 for realizing data exchange between the mobile phone 100 and other short-distance electronic devices (such as mobile phones, smart watches, etc.). The Bluetooth device in the embodiments of the present application can be an integrated circuit or a Bluetooth chip, etc.

[0096] The mobile phone 100 can also include at least one sensor 106, such as a light sensor, a motion sensor, and other sensors. Specifically, the light sensor can include an ambient light sensor and a proximity sensor, wherein the ambient light sensor can adjust the brightness of the display of the touch screen 104 according to the brightness of ambient light, and the proximity sensor can turn off the power supply of the display when the mobile phone 100 is moved to the ear. As one of the motion sensors, the accelerometer sensor can detect the size of acceleration in each direction (generally three axes), and when at rest, it can detect the size and direction of gravity, and can be used for identifying the posture of the mobile phone (such as horizontal and vertical screen switching, related games, magnetometer posture calibration), vibration identification related functions (such as pedometer, knocking), etc. As for other sensors that the mobile phone 100 can also be configured, such as a gyroscope, a barometer, a hygrometer, a thermometer, an infrared sensor, etc., they will not be described here.

[0097] Wi-Fi device 107, configured to provide the phone 100 with network access in compliance with Wi-Fi related standard protocols. The phone 100 can access a Wi-Fi access point through the Wi-Fi device 107, and in turn help the user to send and receive emails, browse web pages, access streaming media, etc. It provides the user with wireless broadband Internet access. In some other embodiments, the Wi-Fi device 107 can also serve as a Wi-Fi wireless access point, and can provide Wi-Fi network access for other electronic devices.

[0098] Positioning device 108, configured to provide the phone 100 with geographic location. It can be understood that the positioning device 108 can be specifically a receiver of a Global Positioning System (GPS) or a Beidou satellite navigation system, a Russian GLONASS, etc. After receiving the geographic location sent by the above positioning system, the positioning device 108 sends the information to the processor 101 for processing, or to the memory 103 for storage. In some other embodiments, the positioning device 108 can be a receiver of an Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which is a mode of operation of GPS positioning with certain assistance. It can use the signals of base stations in cooperation with the signals of GPS satellites to make the phone 100 locate faster. In the AGPS system, the positioning device 108 can obtain positioning assistance through communication with an auxiliary positioning server (such as a mobile phone positioning server). The AGPS system assists the positioning device 108 to complete the ranging and positioning service by serving as an auxiliary server. In this case, the auxiliary positioning server provides positioning assistance by communicating with the positioning device 108 (i.e. the GPS receiver) of the electronic device such as the phone 100 through a wireless communication network. In some other embodiments, the positioning device 108 can also be a positioning technology based on Wi-Fi access points. Since each Wi-Fi access point has a globally unique MAC address, the electronic device can scan and collect the broadcast signals of the surrounding Wi-Fi access points when the Wi-Fi is turned on, and thus obtain the MAC address broadcasted by the Wi-Fi access points. The electronic device sends the data (such as the MAC address) indicating the Wi-Fi access points to a location server through a wireless communication network, and the location server retrieves the geographic location of each Wi-Fi access point, and calculates the geographic location of the electronic device in combination with the strength of the Wi-Fi broadcast signal, and sends it to the positioning device 108 of the electronic device.

[0099] The audio circuit 109, the speaker 113 and the microphone 114 can provide an audio interface between the user and the mobile phone 100. The audio circuit 109 can convert the received audio data into an electrical signal, which is transmitted to the speaker 113 and converted into a sound signal by the speaker 113 for output. On the other hand, the microphone 114 collects a sound signal and converts it into an electrical signal, which is received by the audio circuit 109 and converted into audio data. The audio data is then output to the RF circuit 102 for transmission to another mobile phone, for example, or to the memory 103 for further processing.

[0100] The peripheral interface 110 is configured to provide various interfaces for external input / output devices (such as a keyboard, a mouse, an external display, an external memory, a user identification module card, etc.). For example, the peripheral interface 110 can be connected to a mouse via a universal serial bus (USB) interface and to a user identification module card (SIM) provided by a telecom operator via metal contacts on a SIM card slot. The peripheral interface 110 can be used to couple the above-mentioned external input / output peripheral devices to the processor 101 and the memory 103.

[0101] The mobile phone 100 can further include a power supply device 111 (such as a battery and a power management chip) for supplying power to various components. The battery can be logically connected to the processor 101 via the power management chip, so that the power supply device 111 can perform functions such as charging management, discharging management and power consumption management.

[0102] Although Figure 1 The mobile phone 100 can further include a camera (front camera and / or rear camera), a flash, a micro projection device, a near field communication (NFC) device, etc., which are not shown here.

[0103] The following embodiments can be implemented in the mobile phone 100 having the above structure.

[0104] In the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 3A The touch screen 104 of the electronic device 300 (such as the mobile phone 100) displays an exemplary graphical user interface (hereinafter referred to as a lock screen interface) of a lock screen. The lock screen interface can be a graphical user interface (GUI) displayed on the touch screen 104 of the electronic device 300. Only after a specific operation is performed on the GUI by the user, the main interface of the operating system of the electronic device 300 can be entered, which can effectively protect the data security of the operating system. The specific operation can be at least one of the following operations: a user sliding gesture on the touch screen, a user inputting a password, a user performing fingerprint recognition, a user performing face recognition, a user performing iris recognition, etc.

[0105] The lock screen interface can include a plurality of interface elements, such as a lock screen wallpaper 301, a fingerprint unlocking mark 302, a prompt box 303, an icon 304 for quickly starting a camera, time and date 305, and the like, wherein: the lock screen wallpaper 301 can be automatically updated and displayed in a time manner; the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is used to prompt the user of the following information: fingerprint verification can be performed in the area displayed by the mark 302 to unlock the screen, the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 can visually prompt the user how to unlock the screen in the form of some interface elements. As shown in Figure 3A the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 can be displayed in the form of a fingerprint-shaped mark or other controls. The fingerprint unlocking mark 302 can guide and prompt the user to perform fingerprint unlocking in combination with the prompt information in the prompt box 303. The display area of the touch screen where the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is located can also be the position configured by the fingerprint identifier, that is, the area where the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is located can be considered as a fingerprint unlocking area. Therefore, the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is actually also a fingerprint collection area, and the user's finger (or a stylus, etc.) can touch the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 so that the electronic device 300 collects the fingerprint, verifies the fingerprint, and quickly unlocks the screen. In some other embodiments of the present application, the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 and / or the prompt box 303 can not be displayed on the touch screen at first, and after receiving the user's input, the electronic device 300 displays the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 and / or the prompt box 303 on the lock screen interface in response to the input. The user's input can be the user's finger pressing the home screen button 306, or a touch event of the user's finger on the touch screen 104, and the like. In addition, the user can gradually learn that a certain position on the touch screen is the fingerprint unlocking area through continuous trial and error.

[0106] The display area of the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 can be an arc-shaped area (not shown in the figure) of the touch screen 104 that can be reached by the user's thumb, so that the user can perform a single-handed operation, and the user experience is improved. The prompt box 303 is used to display some prompt information related to unlocking the screen on the touch screen 104 to prompt the user, for example, the prompt information can be "identify the fingerprint in this area to unlock the screen", and the like. The prompt information of the prompt box 303 can be displayed in different information according to different operations of the user on the touch screen 104, which will be described in detail in the following embodiments. In addition to the components in Figure 1 the electronic device 300 can also include a home screen button 306 and a front camera 307, and the like, wherein: the home screen button 306 can be used for operations such as quickly returning to the home interface, screen capture, and the like, and the front camera 307 can be used for iris recognition to quickly unlock the touch screen by the user. In some other embodiments of the present application, the lock screen interface can not include some interface elements such as the time and date 305, the icon 304 for quickly starting the camera, and the like.

[0107] The electronic device 300 detects a touch event of a user's finger on the fingerprint-unlocking icon 302, which can be a tap of the user's finger on the touch screen, for example. In response to the touch event, the electronic device 300 can collect the fingerprint in the touch event through the fingerprint identifier 112 in the touch screen corresponding to the display area where the fingerprint-unlocking icon 302 is located, and verify the fingerprint (e.g., compare it with a pre-stored legal fingerprint). If the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays a GUI as shown in Figure 3B The GUI can be the main interface of the electronic device 300, in which a status bar 308 is included, showing the name of a telecommunication operator, the name of a currently registered network, time, battery level, and the like. The GUI also includes a time and weather Widget 309 for displaying time, date, and weather in a certain location, and a hideable navigation bar 310. The GUI can also include a desktop indicator 311 indicating that the electronic device 300 has three interfaces for displaying various application icons, shortcuts, and Widgets, and the currently displayed interface is the main interface, and the other main interfaces can be displayed by a touch operation of the user's finger on the touch screen 104.

[0108] In some other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 detects a touch event of a user on the fingerprint-unlocking icon 302. In response to the touch event, the electronic device 300 can turn on the power of the fingerprint identifier or wake up the fingerprint identifier from hibernation. At this time, the fingerprint identification function of the electronic device 300 is activated. Then, the electronic device 300 collects the fingerprint in the touch event through the fingerprint identifier and verifies the fingerprint (e.g., compares it with a pre-stored legal fingerprint). The touch event can be a heavy touch of the user's finger on the touch screen to a predetermined threshold, or a tap of the user's finger on the touch screen and keeping still within a predetermined time, and the like. In this way, the fingerprint identifier can be powered on and work at an appropriate time, thereby saving the power in the electronic device 300.

[0109] When the electronic device 300 receives a new notification, the notification can be displayed on the above-mentioned lock screen interface, as shown in Figure 4A In the figure, in addition to the interface elements in Figure 3A , two notifications are also exemplarily displayed: the notification 401 indicates that the message is from an unread short message sent by a contact "Sanlian Bookstore", and the notification content is "New edition of The Little Prince is available, with limited quantity"; the notification 402 indicates an unread WeChat message. Of course, in some other embodiments, the notification on the above-mentioned lock screen interface can also be only one. It can be understood that those skilled in the art can know that the notification (Notification) in all embodiments of the present application can be A term in open source operating system, by which a developer can create and display different types of notifications on a touch screen according to the development guidelines of the system for notifications, such as status bar notifications, floating notifications, or lock screen notifications, etc. The above notifications can also be notifications in iOS operating system, etc. Each notification has a corresponding application or widget or other, i.e. when the user operates the notification (such as tapping or pressing the notification), the notification will jump to the user interface of the corresponding application or other. For example, when the user clicks the notification, the user interface of an application can be opened and specific information related to the notification can be displayed on the user interface; for another example, when the user clicks the notification, the electronic device can pause the alarm or immediately reply to the short message. In the following embodiments, unless otherwise specified, the notification can refer to the lock screen notification; of course, in other embodiments, the notification can refer to any one or more of the status bar notification, the floating notification, or the lock screen notification. In some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can start the fingerprint recognition function (i.e. the fingerprint recognizer is powered on to start working or is woken up from hibernation) only after receiving a new notification.

[0110] In Figure 4A , the notification and the fingerprint unlocking identifier 302, the prompt box 303 are located in different display areas in the lock screen interface. If the user has no interest in the newly received notification 401, 402, the user can touch the fingerprint unlocking identifier 302 in the lock screen interface with a finger. The electronic device 300 collects the fingerprint through the fingerprint recognizer 112 in the display area corresponding to the fingerprint unlocking identifier 302 in the touch screen, and verifies it with the pre-stored legal fingerprint; if the verification is successful, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays the GUI as shown in Figure 3B .

[0111] In some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 detects the first touch event of the user's finger 403 (or a stylus, etc.) on the notification 401; in response to the first touch event, the electronic device 300 can highlight the prompt box 303 or highlight the fingerprint unlocking identifier 302 to prompt the user that the selected notification 401 can be further operated (such as opening the App corresponding to the notification, etc.). The specific way of highlighting can be any display or prompt way that reminds the user to pay special attention, such as Figure 4B as shown in Figure 4AIn comparison, the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 is displayed larger, i.e., the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 is displayed in an enlarged manner; in some other embodiments, the prompt box 303 can also be displayed in an enlarged manner. In addition, the highlighting can also be displaying the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 or the prompt box 303 in a flashing manner at a specific frequency on the touch screen, and the like, so as to remind the user in a more reasonable manner. In some other embodiments of the present application, in response to the first touch event, the prompt box 303 is highlighted (e.g., displayed in an enlarged manner), and the prompt information displayed by the prompt box 303 can also be changed. As shown in Figure 4C , the prompt information can be changed to "slide to this area to unlock the screen and view this short message". It can be understood that if the first touch event is directed to the notification 402, the prompt information displayed in the Figure 4C can be changed to "slide to this area to unlock the screen and view this WeChat message". That is, the electronic device 300 can display different prompt information in the prompt box 303 according to different types of notifications to which the finger 403 of the user is directed, so as to more accurately prompt the user to the notification that the user is interested in, and intelligently guide the user to perform the correct operation. In some other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can start the fingerprint recognition function (i.e., the fingerprint recognizer is powered on to start working or is woken up from hibernation) after detecting the first touch event of the user on the notification 401, so as to further save the power of the electronic device.

[0112] In some other embodiments, in order to make the user focus on the current operation, interface elements that are not related to the operation and that are displayed in the Figure 4A can be hidden (i.e., not displayed on the lock screen), or displayed as a background after being processed by Gaussian blur; as shown in Figure 4C , the time and date 305 and the icon 304 for quickly starting the camera that were originally displayed in the Figure 4B can be hidden or displayed as a background; in addition, in comparison with the Figure 4A , the unselected notification 402 can be displayed in a reduced manner, or the notification 402 is no longer displayed in the lock screen, or is displayed as a background after being processed by Gaussian blur, and the like.

[0113] In some other embodiments of the present application, in response to the first touch event, the electronic device 300 can highlight (e.g., enlarge display, etc.) the prompt box 303 or the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 to different degrees according to the priority of the selected notification 401. For example, in response to the first touch event, the electronic device 300 determines that the priority of the notification 401 corresponding to the first touch event is the lowest, and then the electronic device 300 can enlarge display of the prompt box 303 or the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 with the lowest enlargement factor, or does not enlarge display of the prompt box 303 or the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 (i.e., the display size is the same as before). For another example, in response to the first touch event, the electronic device 300 determines that the priority of the notification 401 corresponding to the first touch event is the highest, and then the electronic device 300 enlarges display of the prompt box 303 or the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 with the largest enlargement factor. In the present embodiment, the priority can be a distinction of important, ordinary, unimportant, etc. for different notifications, and the priority can be default or user-defined by the electronic device. For example, the user can set the priority of the notification of a short message as ordinary, and the priority of the notification of WeChat as important, etc. In addition, the priority of the notification can be set by referring to the related functions in the Android operating system.

[0114] In some other embodiments of the present application, in response to the first touch event, the electronic device 300 can also highlight the selected notification 401 to remind the user which notification is selected. The highlighting manner can be the same as or similar to the manner in the above embodiment. As shown in FIG. 4B, after the user's finger 403 touches the notification 401, the notification 401 is enlarged for display, while the notification 402 is not touched and is displayed in the same manner as before. Figure 4D

[0115] In some other embodiments, in response to the first touch event, the electronic device enlarges display of the notification 401, and at the same time, the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 can also be enlarged for display, and the prompt information of the prompt box 303 can also be changed to "slide to this area to unlock the screen and view this short message". In addition, in order to focus the user's attention on the current operation, other interface elements displayed in the lock screen which are not related to the operation can be hidden (i.e., not displayed on the lock screen) or displayed as a background after Gaussian blur processing; as shown in FIG. 4C, the time and date 305 and the icon 304 for quickly starting the camera which are originally displayed in the lock screen can be hidden or displayed as a background, and the unselected notification 402 is displayed in a reduced size. Figure 4A Figure 4E Figure 4A

[0116] ​​​​In the above embodiments, the first touch event can be a user's finger 403 lightly tapping the touchscreen 104 and holding it still for a predetermined time, or a user's finger 403 pressing the touchscreen 104 firmly and holding it still for a predetermined time, or a user's finger 403 first lightly tapping the touchscreen 104 and then pressing it firmly. It is understood that the first touch event can be other types of gestures besides those listed above, and this embodiment does not impose any limitations on the first touch event. Furthermore, the above-mentioned first touch event can be understood as a selection operation of the notification 401; that is, through the above-mentioned first touch event, the electronic device 300 selects the notification 401 for further processing.

[0117] In other embodiments of this application, the first touch event can also be a user's finger pressing firmly on the touchscreen. In response to this first touch event, the electronic device 300 can highlight the fingerprint unlock icon 302, the prompt box 303, or the selected notification to different degrees (e.g., magnify the display) depending on the pressure applied during the first touch event. For example, the greater the pressure during the first touch event, the larger the display area of ​​the fingerprint unlock icon 302, the prompt box 303, or the selected notification. In other embodiments, when the pressure during the first touch event exceeds a predetermined threshold, the selected notification can be displayed as another GUI where the user can perform quick operations on the notification (e.g., reply, delete).

[0118] like Figure 4F As shown, after the electronic device 300 selects notification 401, it detects a second touch event 404 of the user's finger 403 on the touchscreen 104; in response to the second touch event 404, the electronic device 300 can move the selected notification 401 from its original display area (e.g., ...). Figure 4C Drag the notification (401 location) to... Figure 4F The display area shown is used for display. Figure 4FFrom a display perspective, the display area where notification 401 is located can partially overlap with the display area where fingerprint unlock icon 302 is located. By displaying the dragged notification 401, the user can intuitively see which notification will be opened, allowing for further operation. The second touch event 404 can stop at the display area where fingerprint unlock icon 302 is located. At this time, the user's finger 403 touches the fingerprint reader 112 on the touchscreen corresponding to the display area where fingerprint unlock icon 302 is located. The fingerprint reader 112 then collects the fingerprint of finger 403 and sends the collected fingerprint to processor 101. Processor 101 verifies the collected fingerprint, determining whether the collected fingerprint matches a pre-stored valid fingerprint. If processor 101 determines that the collected fingerprint matches the valid fingerprint, then processor 101 unlocks the screen and displays the GUI of the application (or system settings or widget, etc.) corresponding to the selected notification 401 on touchscreen 104. The GUI displays the specific information of notification 401, such as... Figure 4G As shown. In Figure 4G In the notification 401, all the details 405 are displayed. The power icon 406 indicates that after the user's finger 403 clicks this icon 406, the touchscreen will turn off or return to the lock screen (e.g., ...). Figure 3A (As shown). In other embodiments of this application, to improve security, while performing fingerprint verification as described in the above embodiments, facial feature information or iris information can also be collected through the front-facing camera 307. The electronic device 300 can compare the collected facial feature information with pre-stored legitimate facial feature information, or compare the collected iris information with pre-stored legitimate iris information. Only when both fingerprint verification and facial feature information verification are successful, or both fingerprint verification and iris information verification are successful, will the electronic device 300 unlock the screen and display the GUI of the application corresponding to the selected notification 401.

[0119] In other embodiments of this application, in response to the first touch event described above, the electronic device 300 can also collect the user's fingerprint. For example, as... Figure 4EAs shown, the first touch event can be a tap on the position of the display area where the notification 401 is located, which is configured with the fingerprint identifier 112, so that the electronic device can collect the fingerprint of the user at this position. In response to the second touch event 404, the electronic device 300 can verify the collected fingerprint. After the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays the GUI of the application (or system settings or Widget, etc.) corresponding to the selected notification 401 on the touch screen 104. In the embodiment of the present application, the fingerprint identifier 112 is configured at the position of the touch screen corresponding to the display area where the notification 401 is located, and the electronic device can collect the fingerprint of the user at this position, and the second touch event 404 is the condition for triggering the electronic device 300 to verify the collected fingerprint of the user.

[0120] In some other embodiments of the present application, the fingerprint unlocking icon can not be displayed on the lock screen interface first, such as Figure 10A As shown in the lock screen interface of Figure 10A , a notification 1001 is displayed. In order to display a concise and elegant lock screen interface, the fingerprint unlocking icon and the like are not displayed on the touch screen at this time. As shown in Figure 10B , the electronic device detects a first touch event of the user's finger 1002 on the touch screen. In response to the first touch event, the fingerprint unlocking icon 1003 is displayed in the lock screen interface on the touch screen, and a prompt box 1004 can also be displayed in the lock screen interface, and the fingerprint unlocking icon 1003 or the prompt box 1004 can be highlighted. As shown in Figure 10C , the electronic device detects a second touch event 1005 of the user's finger 1002 on the touch screen, which can be a sliding gesture. The sliding gesture can be that the user's finger 1002 moves from the first touch position of the touch screen to the second touch position of the touch screen without leaving the touch screen. In response to the second touch event 1005, as shown in Figure 10C , the electronic device can drag the selected notification 1001 to another display area in the lock screen interface and collect the fingerprint at the second touch position of the display area. The electronic device verifies the fingerprint, and after the fingerprint verification is passed, the screen is unlocked, and the GUI of the application corresponding to the notification 1001 is displayed, which includes the specific content 1006 of the notification 1001, as shown in Figure 10D , the conversation GUI of the contact in the short message is displayed in Figure 10D , which can also include the contact avatar 1007, the navigation bar 1008, the status bar 1009, etc.

[0121] In the above Figures 4A to 4GIn the described embodiment, the fingerprint is unlocked and the GUI of the application corresponding to the notification 401 is opened mainly through the second touch event 404 of the finger 403 of the user on the touch screen 104. In some other embodiments of the present application, other ways can be used to achieve the same effect as the above-described embodiment. For example, Figure 4H As shown, in the lock screen interface, there is a notification 401, a fingerprint unlocking mark 302 and a prompt box 303. The display area A of the notification 401 in the lock screen interface can not overlap with the display area B of the fingerprint unlocking mark 302. In some other embodiments of the present application, the display area A of the notification 401 in the lock screen interface can overlap with the display area B of the fingerprint unlocking mark 302. Figure 4I In the embodiment, the electronic device 300 detects the third touch event of the finger 403 of the user on the fingerprint unlocking mark 302; in response to the third touch event, as shown, Figure 4J The electronic device 300 can display the notification 401 according to the predetermined trajectory 407 from the display area A to the display area B, and the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is displayed in the display area B. In some other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 can display the notification 401 according to the predetermined trajectory 407 from the display area A to the display area B, and the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is not displayed in the display area B. Figure 4J In the embodiment, the notification 401 is moved to the display area B, and the displayed notification 401 can partially overlap with the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 in the display area B; from the display effect, the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is displayed in the notification 401. In some other embodiments of the present application, after the notification 401 is moved to the display area B, the notification 401 can no longer be displayed. While moving the above-mentioned notification 401 according to the predetermined trajectory 407, the electronic device 300 can collect the fingerprint of the finger 403 through the fingerprint identifier 112 in the display area corresponding to the touch screen of the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 in response to the third touch event, and perform fingerprint verification (for example, compare the collected fingerprint with the pre-stored legal fingerprint). If the electronic device 300 judges that the collected fingerprint matches the legal fingerprint, the screen is unlocked, and after the notification 401 is moved to the display area B, the GUI of the application corresponding to the notification 401 is displayed on the touch screen 104, and the specific content of the notification 401 is displayed. Through the embodiment, the finger of the user only needs to touch the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 to unlock the screen and view the specific content of the notification, which simplifies the operation of the user, improves the efficiency of the electronic device in handling affairs, and improves the user experience. In some other embodiments of the present application, in order to improve the security level, the face feature information or iris information can be collected through the front camera 307 while the fingerprint verification is performed in the above-mentioned embodiment. The electronic device 300 can compare the collected face feature information with the pre-stored legal face feature information, or compare the collected iris information with the pre-stored legal iris information. Only when the fingerprint verification and the face feature information verification are both successful, or the fingerprint verification and the iris information verification are both successful, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays the GUI user interface of the application corresponding to the notification 703.

[0122] In some other embodiments of the present application, when two or more notifications are displayed on the lock screen interface (as shown in FIG. 4B), in order to simplify the operation of the user, the electronic device 300 can also automatically move one of the notifications, for example, the notification 402, to the display area B (i.e., the position where the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 is displayed) in the display area A. As shown in FIG. 4C, the electronic device 300 detects a third touch event of the finger 403 of the user on the fingerprint unlocking icon 302; in response to the third touch event, the electronic device determines which notification (the notification 401 or the notification 402) is closest to the fingerprint unlocking icon 302; after determining that the notification 402 is closest to the fingerprint unlocking icon 302, the electronic device 300 displays the notification 402 on the display area B according to a predetermined trajectory 408, where the display area B displays the fingerprint unlocking icon 302. Figure 4A Figure 4J Figure 4K Figure 4K

[0123] In some other embodiments, when two or more notifications are displayed on the lock screen interface (as shown in FIG. 4B), in order to simplify the operation of the user, the electronic device 300 can also automatically move the notifications (two or more or all of the notifications) to the display area B (i.e., the position where the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 is displayed) in the display area A. As shown in FIG. 4D, the electronic device 300 detects a third touch event of the finger 403 of the user on the fingerprint unlocking icon 302; in response to the third touch event, the electronic device determines which notification (the notification 401 or the notification 402) is closest to the fingerprint unlocking icon 302; after determining that the notification 402 is closest to the fingerprint unlocking icon 302, the electronic device 300 displays the notification 402 on the display area B according to a predetermined trajectory 408, where the display area B displays the fingerprint unlocking icon 302. Figure 4A Figure 4J ​​​​​On the other hand, the electronic device 300 collects the user's fingerprint and performs fingerprint verification according to the third touch event of the fingerprint identifier of the user's finger 403 in the display area where the fingerprint unlocking mark 302 is located. When the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and opens the relevant GUI of the application corresponding to the multiple notifications so as to allow the user to view the specific information of the multiple notifications. Since the application corresponding to the multiple notifications can be multiple, the GUI displayed on the electronic device 300 can also be multiple. The multiple GUIs can be displayed in the order of the time of the notifications received by the electronic device 300; or the multiple GUIs can be displayed in different sizes on the touch screen according to the priority of the notifications, for example, the GUI of the application corresponding to the important notification is displayed in a larger size on the touch screen than the GUI of the application corresponding to the ordinary notification.

[0124] In some other embodiments, when two or more notifications are displayed on the lock screen interface, the electronic device 300 collects the user's fingerprint and compares it with the pre-stored legal fingerprint according to the above touch event of the user's finger 403 on the touch screen 104. Meanwhile, the eye movement information of the user can also be obtained by the front camera 307; the electronic device 300 can determine that the user is currently focusing on a certain notification (for example, the notification 401) on the touch screen according to the obtained eye movement information; then the electronic device 300 automatically moves the notification to the display area B (i.e. Figure 4J After the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and opens the GUI of the application corresponding to the notification. Through this embodiment, the user's operation is simplified, and the current focus of the user on which notification is determined more intelligently and accurately, and then the screen is unlocked and the application corresponding to the notification is opened, which greatly improves the user experience. In some other embodiments of the present application, in order to improve the security level, the face feature information or the iris information can also be collected by the front camera 307 while the fingerprint verification is performed in the above embodiments. The electronic device 300 can compare the collected face feature information with the pre-stored legal face feature information, or compare the collected iris information with the pre-stored legal iris information. Only when the fingerprint verification and the face feature information verification are both successful, or the fingerprint verification and the iris information verification are both successful, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays the GUI of the application corresponding to the notification 703.

[0125] In some other embodiments of the present application, when the electronic device 300 automatically moves a certain notification to the display area B, the positions of other notifications displayed on the lock screen interface can also change to fill the blank left by the moved notification, so that the notifications displayed on the lock screen interface are continuous and more beautiful, thereby improving the user experience.

[0126] In some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 can set certain notifications to be displayed in the display area B where the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 and the prompt box 303 are located. As shown in Figure 5A The specific position on the touch screen 104104 is configured with a fingerprint identifier 112, as shown in Figure 5A The position in the touch screen corresponding to the specific area B in the lock screen interface can be configured with a fingerprint identifier 112, which can be integrated in the touch screen in a form invisible to the user in order to achieve a unified and simple display effect. On the lock screen interface, the fingerprint unlocking icon 502 and the prompt box 503 can be displayed in the specific area B. In addition, if the unlocking enters the main interface, the above-mentioned fingerprint unlocking icon 502 and the prompt box 503 can still be displayed in the specific area, and when performing mobile payment (such as NFC payment, scanning bar code payment, etc.), the user can perform fingerprint collection and verification operation according to the prompt of the prompt box 503 to complete the mobile payment.

[0127] In some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 can set certain types of notifications to be displayed in the specific area B, such as floating notifications or lock screen notifications. Specifically, under the lock screen interface, the electronic device 300 can set certain lock screen notifications to be displayed in the specific area B, while other lock screen notifications cannot be displayed in the specific area B, for example, notifications about WeChat can be displayed in the specific area. As shown in Figure 5B The electronic device 300 receives a notification 501 of a short message, and since the electronic device 300 does not set the notification of the short message to be displayed in the specific area (i.e., the notification of the short message is not a specific notification), the notification of the short message cannot be displayed in the specific area. As shown in Figure 5C The electronic device 300 receives a notification 504 of WeChat, and since the electronic device 300 sets the notification of WeChat to be displayed in the specific area (i.e., the notification of WeChat is a specific notification), the notification 504 is displayed in the specific area B. At this time, the prompt information in the prompt box 503 in the lock screen interface can be changed to "verify the fingerprint in this area to unlock the screen and view this WeChat notification".

[0128] In some other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 can also set the notifications related to a specific contact to be displayed in the specific area. For example, the specific contact can be a contact in a specific application. Specifically, the specific contact can be a contact in WeChat, i.e., the notifications related to the contact in WeChat can be displayed in the specific area; the specific contact can also be a contact in the phonebook, i.e., the notifications related to the contact in the phonebook can be displayed in the specific area. In some other embodiments of the present application, the specific contact can also be a specific contact in various applications. Specifically, the specific contact can be a contact Prince in WeChat, and the electronic device can display the notifications of Prince in WeChat in the specific area after receiving the notifications. The specific contact can also be a contact Ronan in the phonebook. The specific contact can also be multiple contacts.

[0129] In some other embodiments of the present application, the contact in the phonebook can have multiple contact information, such as a mobile phone number, an email address, an instant message, etc. The electronic device can receive the input of the user to bind the selected contact with the specific area. Only the notifications sent by the contact can be displayed in the specific area, for example, the short message sent by the contact through the phone number can be displayed in the specific area; the email sent by the contact through the email address can be displayed in the specific area. The displayed short message, email, etc. can only display a part of the content in the specific area.

[0130] In some other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 can set the notifications related to specific content to be displayed in the specific area. For example, the received notification is related to a car, and the notification can be displayed in the specific area. Specifically, in the Android operating system, the electronic device can determine the specific content of the notification according to the function setContentText(), and then determine whether the specific content is the specific content of interest of the user according to the pre-set keyword. For example, the pre-set keyword is "car", and after receiving a new notification, the electronic device first determines whether the keyword is in the specific content of the notification through the function setContentText(). If the keyword is in the specific content, the electronic device displays the received notification in the specific area. Otherwise, the received notification is displayed in other display areas except the specific area.

[0131] In the embodiments of the present application, the specific area can be a specific area of the display screen of the electronic device 300, or a specific area of the display screen of the electronic device 300 and the display screen of the external device 200. Figure 5AThe specific area B in the display screen can be presented in a manner that can be perceived by the user, for example, the user can be prompted visually on the touch screen that the display area is the specific area, for example, a rectangular frame is displayed on the display screen to indicate that the rectangular frame is the specific area; or the user can be prompted by tactile feedback (for example, vibration) when the user touches the specific area B to indicate that the display area is the specific area; or the user can be prompted by both of the above manners. Of course, the specific area B can also be presented in a manner that cannot be perceived by the user.

[0132] In some embodiments of the present application, the specific area can be a fixed display area in the lock screen interface. The display area can be a part of the display area in the lock screen interface, instead of the whole display area. The term "fixed" can mean that the specific area is in a fixed position in the touch screen. The term "fixed" can also mean that the specific area is a fixed size display area displayed in the lock screen interface. The specific area can be displayed in a position of the touch screen at one time, and can be displayed in another position of the touch screen at another time. It can be understood that the term "fixed" can also mean that the specific area is in a fixed position in the lock screen interface, and is a fixed size display area displayed in the lock screen interface.

[0133] In some other embodiments of the present application, the specific area B can display display areas of different sizes according to the display content of the specific notification. For example, when the display content of the received specific notification is more, the specific area B is larger; and when the display content of the received specific notification is less, the specific area B is smaller.

[0134] In some other embodiments of the present application, the specific notification can include a shortcut control of the corresponding application. Therefore, the specific notification and the fingerprint unlocking identifier are displayed in an overlapped manner. Specifically, the shortcut control of the specific application and the fingerprint unlocking identifier can be displayed in an overlapped manner. For example, the shortcut control can be a reading button of a WeChat red envelope or a reading button of an Alipay transfer, and the reading button of the WeChat red envelope or the reading button of the Alipay transfer can be displayed in an overlapped manner with the fingerprint unlocking identifier. In the embodiments of the present application, the WeChat red envelope refers to an information containing a certain amount of electronic money in WeChat, which is developed by Tencent Company. The shortcut control can also be a link. When the user's finger clicks the link, the screen can be quickly unlocked by fingerprint, and the corresponding website of the link can be opened by the browser to display various information on the website. The shortcut control can also be a menu. When the user's finger clicks the menu, the screen can be quickly unlocked by fingerprint, and a submenu or an item under the menu can be displayed on the touch screen. It can be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the shortcut control includes but is not limited to the interface elements mentioned above.

[0135] The above technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below with specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0136] As shown in the example, Figure 5D the lock screen interface displays a notification 501 and a notification 505, where the notification 505 is a notification of a WeChat red packet sent by a WeChat contact, the Little Prince. Since the notification 505 is a specific notification, it is displayed in the specific area B. In Figure 5D the specific area B, the notification 505 related to WeChat is displayed, and it can be displayed in overlap with the fingerprint unlocking icon 303. In the notification 505, a red packet reading button 506 is displayed, which can partially overlap with the fingerprint unlocking icon 502, and the red packet reading button 506 can be displayed within the fingerprint unlocking icon 502, as shown in Figure 5D the specific area B, the notification 505 related to WeChat is displayed, and it can be displayed in overlap with the fingerprint unlocking icon 303. In the notification 505, a red packet reading button 506 is displayed, which can partially overlap with the fingerprint unlocking icon 502, and the red packet reading button 506 can be displayed within the fingerprint unlocking icon 502, as shown in

[0137] In some other embodiments of the present application, when a specific notification is displayed in the specific area B, the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 can also not be displayed on the touch screen. However, the position of the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 displayed on the touch screen before is the position configured by the fingerprint recognizer. In this way, the fingerprint unlocking and the opening of the application corresponding to the notification message can be quickly performed without the user's awareness, further improving the user experience.

[0138] As shown in the example, Figure 5E the electronic device 300 detects a touch event of the user's finger 507 on the red packet reading button 506; in response to the touch event, the electronic device 300 collects a fingerprint through the fingerprint recognizer in the touch screen corresponding to the specific area B, and verifies the fingerprint (for example, judges whether the collected fingerprint matches the pre-stored legal fingerprint). If the electronic device 300 determines that the collected fingerprint matches the pre-stored legal fingerprint, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen, and sends a request to the application server corresponding to WeChat to obtain a certain amount of money in the WeChat red packet; as shown in Figure 5FAs shown, after receiving the response message from the application server, the electronic device 300 displays the GUI after the WeChat red envelope is opened on the touch screen 104. If the electronic device 300 determines that the collected fingerprint does not match the pre-stored legal fingerprint, the electronic device 300 can prompt the user so that the user is aware of the fingerprint mismatch. For example, the user can be prompted with the following information in the prompt box 503: "Fingerprint verification is unsuccessful, please re-verify", or the user can be prompted in the form of vibration that the fingerprint verification is unsuccessful, etc. In some other embodiments, in response to the above-mentioned touch event, the prompt information of the prompt box 502 can also be displayed in a magnified manner so that the user notices the prompt information. Figure 5F is an exemplary interface for opening a WeChat red envelope, which displays the amount of the red envelope grabbed by the user Steven and other related information. When the user's finger clicks the return identifier 508, the main interface of WeChat can be displayed on the touch screen 104. In some other embodiments of the present application, in order to improve the security level, fingerprint verification can be performed at the same time as in the above-mentioned embodiments, and facial feature information or iris information can also be collected by the front camera 307. The electronic device 300 can compare the collected facial feature information with the pre-stored legal facial feature information, or compare the collected iris information with the pre-stored legal iris information. Only when both the fingerprint verification and the facial feature information verification are successful, or both the fingerprint verification and the iris information verification are successful, the electronic device 300 can unlock the screen and display the GUI of the application program corresponding to the notification 703.

[0139] In some scenarios, the user can not be interested in the WeChat red envelope displayed in Figure 5D , and therefore in some other embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 5G , the user can make a sliding gesture 510 on the touch screen 104, so that the electronic device 300 can unlock the screen according to the sliding gesture and display the main interface as shown in Figure 3B without processing the WeChat red envelope or other notifications. The starting position of the sliding gesture 510 can be outside the display area of the notifications (such as the notifications 501 and 505) on the lock screen interface, and the ending position can be the fingerprint unlocking identifier 502 in the specific area B, so that the fingerprint collector 112 collects and verifies the fingerprint.

[0140] In some embodiments of the present application, the user can manually set which notifications can be displayed in the above-mentioned specific area. Exemplarily, as shown in Figures 11A-11F , a GUI for setting different display of different notifications for the user is provided. After the electronic device 300 detects that the user's finger touches the setting 312 in Figure 3A , in response to the touch event, a GUI related to the setting 312 is displayed on the touch screen, as shown in Figure 11A . In Figure 11AThe setting 312 is shown to have a plurality of specific menus, such as a flight mode menu, a Wi-Fi menu, a Bluetooth menu, a notification menu 1101, and the like. Among them, the user can enter a specific sub-menu of the notification menu 1101 by tapping the control 1102, such as Figure 11B as shown. Figure 11B Various sub-menus of the notification menu 1101 are shown, such as a sub-menu 1103 for making notification settings for the gallery App, a sub-menu 1104 for making notification settings for WeChat, a sub-menu 1105 for making notification settings for short messages, and the like. After the electronic device detects a touch event (such as a tap, a heavy press, and the like) of the user on the touch control 1106, the electronic device displays a sub-menu of the short message notification on the touch screen in response to the touch event, such as Figure 11C as shown. An item 1107 of the sub-menu indicates whether the notification of the short message is allowed to be displayed on the touch screen, and in the GUI of Figure 11C the control 1108 indicates that the notification of the short message is allowed to be displayed on the touch screen. The item 1107 also has sub-items at the next level, such as a sub-item 1107-1, a sub-item 1107-2, and the like. In the sub-item 1107-1, the control 1109 indicates that the notification of the short message is allowed to be displayed on the lock screen interface. In the sub-item 1107-2, the control 1110 indicates that the notification of the short message is not allowed to be displayed in a specific area. However, since the control 1109 is not touched, the notification of the short message is still allowed to be displayed on the lock screen interface, but the display position is not allowed to be in the specific area. In combination with Figures 5A-5C the specific examples of the embodiments of the present application can be better understood, and in particular Figure 5B as shown, since the user sets how the notification of the short message is displayed (as shown in Figure 11C ), in Figure 5B , the notification 501 of the short message is displayed on the lock screen interface but not in the specific area B. The meaning of the specific area here is similar or the same as the meaning of the specific area mentioned in the above embodiments.

[0141] After the electronic device detects a touch event of the user on the control 1110, in response to the touch event, the control 1110 is displayed as a control 1113, as shown in Figure 11D , which indicates that the electronic device allows the notification of the short message to be displayed in the specific area. The control 1113 in combination with the control 1109 indicates that the notification of the short message can be displayed in the specific area in the lock screen interface.

[0142] In some other embodiments of the present application, when the electronic device allows the notification of the short message to be displayed in the specific area, more menus of the sub-item 1107-2 can also be displayed on the touch screen. Exemplarily, in Figure 11CIn some embodiments, after the electronic device detects the touch event of the user on the control 1110, in response to the touch event, a GUI as shown in FIG. 11B is displayed on the touch screen. In the GUI, compared with the GUI as shown in FIG. 11A, the control 1110 is changed to a control 1113, which indicates that the electronic device allows the notification of the short message to be displayed in the specific area. Exemplarily, in the GUI, a sub-item 1107-2 displays more menus, which can be used to specifically set which notifications of the short message sent by which contact are allowed to be displayed in the specific area. For example, a control 1111 indicates that only the notifications of the selected contacts are allowed to be displayed in the specific area, and the notifications of the non-selected contacts are not allowed to be displayed in the specific area, for example, a control 1112 indicates that the notification of the short message sent by the contact “prince” is allowed to be displayed in the specific area. In addition, since the control 1109 is not touched, the notifications of the short messages sent by the non-selected contacts are still allowed to be displayed on the lock screen, but cannot be displayed in the specific area. Figure 11E Figure 11C Figure 11E

[0143] In some other embodiments, when the user touches the control 1108, a GUI as shown in FIG. 11C is displayed. A control 1114 indicates that the notification of the short message is not allowed to be displayed on the touch screen, that is, the electronic device can still receive the short message (the user can open the related GUI of the short message App to view all the received short messages), but cannot prompt the related content of the received new short message in the form of the notification. Figure 11F

[0144] In some other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can also automatically determine how to notify the newly received various messages according to different notification strategies. For example, according to the priority of the notification, it can be determined which notifications can be displayed in the specific area, or according to the time sequence of the received notifications, it can be determined which notifications can be displayed in the specific area. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 11D, a sub-item 1107-3 is a menu of automatic notification, which means that the electronic device can automatically notify the notification of the short message to different degrees according to the environment in which the electronic device is located or the notification strategy. Among them, a control 1115 indicates that the automatic notification is not allowed. After the user touches the control 1115, the automatic notification function is turned on, and the electronic device processes the notification of the short message according to the environment in which the electronic device is located or the notification strategy. Figure 11C

[0145] The above embodiments are implemented in the electronic device 300 in which the fingerprint recognizer 112 is arranged in the touch screen. In some other embodiments of the present application, the fingerprint recognizer 112 can also be arranged in other positions of the electronic device 300, as shown in FIG. 11E. In some other embodiments of the present application, the fingerprint recognizer 112 can also be arranged in the electronic device 300 in other ways, as shown in FIG. 11F. Figure 6A Figure 6A ​​​​​​In some embodiments, a fingerprint recognizer 601 (same or similar to the fingerprint recognizer 112 in the above embodiments) is configured in a bezel 603 at the bottom of the electronic device 300, which is adjacent to the four edges of the touch screen 104. The fingerprint recognizer 601 can include a fingerprint sensor or the like. In some other embodiments, a light emitting device 602 such as a light emitting diode or the like is configured around the fingerprint recognizer 601, which can emit light or not under the control of the processor 101 of the electronic device 300. In some embodiments, the fingerprint recognizer 601 and the light emitting device 602 together can be referred to as a Home button, i.e., a home screen button.

[0146] Figure 6A A lock screen interface is displayed. In the lock screen interface, a lock screen wallpaper 301, a time and date 305, a prompt box 604, and a fingerprint unlocking indication 605 can be included. The fingerprint unlocking indication 605 is used to visually prompt the user that the electronic device 300 can be unlocked by fingerprint, so as to facilitate the user to perform the related operation. The prompt information of the prompt box 604 can be "slide the indication to the Home button to unlock" or the like. It can be understood that the prompt box 604 and the fingerprint unlocking indication 605 do not have to be both displayed in the lock screen interface, and only one of the two, for example, the prompt box 604, can be displayed.

[0147] As shown in FIG. 6B, the electronic device 300 detects a sliding gesture 607 made by the user's finger 606 against the fingerprint unlocking indication 605; in response to the sliding gesture 607, the electronic device 300 determines whether the collected fingerprint matches a pre-stored legal fingerprint; if the collected fingerprint matches the legal fingerprint, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays a home interface (as shown in FIG. 6C) on the touch screen 104. Figure 6B As shown in FIG. 6B, the electronic device 300 detects a sliding gesture 607 made by the user's finger 606 against the fingerprint unlocking indication 605; in response to the sliding gesture 607, the electronic device 300 determines whether the collected fingerprint matches a pre-stored legal fingerprint; if the collected fingerprint matches the legal fingerprint, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays a home interface (as shown in FIG. 6C) on the touch screen 104. Figure 3B In some embodiments, the sliding gesture 607 can be a gesture moving from inside the touch screen to outside the touch screen, and specifically, the starting position of the sliding gesture 607 can be the position of the fingerprint unlocking indication 605 on the touch screen 104, and the ending position of the sliding gesture 607 can be outside the touch screen 104 and at the position of the fingerprint recognizer 601. In addition, the sliding gesture 607 can be that the user's finger 606 taps the touch screen 104, and then continuously contacts the touch screen 104 and moves to the position of the fingerprint recognizer 601 in the bezel 603. In some other embodiments of the present application, the fingerprint unlocking indication 605 can be displayed on the touch screen 104 and move with the movement of the user's finger 606. Until the user's finger 606 slides out of the touch screen 104, the fingerprint unlocking indication 605 returns to the original display position in the form of an animation.

[0148] As shown in FIG. 6B, the electronic device 300 detects a sliding gesture 607 made by the user's finger 606 against the fingerprint unlocking indication 605; in response to the sliding gesture 607, the electronic device 300 determines whether the collected fingerprint matches a pre-stored legal fingerprint; if the collected fingerprint matches the legal fingerprint, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and displays a home interface (as shown in FIG. 6C) on the touch screen 104. Figure 6CAs shown, the electronic device 300 receives two notifications: notification 606 and notification 607. If the user sees both notifications but does not want to open the notifications to view the detailed messages, the user can employ the swipe gesture 607 in the notification 606 to unlock the screen, causing the electronic device 300 to display the home screen. Figure 6B

[0149] As shown, the electronic device 300 detects a first touch event of the user's finger 606 on the notification 608; in response to the first touch event, the prompt information of the prompt box 604 can be changed to "swipe finger to the Home button to unlock and view this short message", and a prompt arrow 610 is displayed. The prompt arrow 610 and the prompt box 604 together serve to prompt and guide the user on how to unlock the screen. In some other embodiments of the present application, as mentioned in the above embodiments, in response to the first touch event, the prompt box 604 can be highlighted (e.g. enlarged, etc.), so as to better focus the user's attention on the current operation. In some other embodiments of the present application, in response to the first touch event, the light emitting device 602 can emit light, so as to better visually prompt the user. The light emitting device 602 can emit light of different colors or different frequencies according to the different types of notifications selected by the first touch event. When the user's finger 606 is no longer in contact with the touch screen 104, the light emitting device 602 can stop emitting light or continue to emit light for a predetermined time; if there is no user operation within the predetermined time, the light emitting device 602 stops emitting light. Figure 6D

[0150] As shown, the electronic device 300 detects a second touch event 611 (i.e. a swipe gesture) of the user's finger 606 on the notification 608. The starting position of the second touch event 611 can be in the display area of the notification 608 on the touch screen 104, and the ending position of the second touch event 611 can be at the location of the fingerprint identifier 611, i.e. the ending position of the swipe gesture 611 is outside the touch screen 104. In response to the second touch event 611, the electronic device 300 can collect a fingerprint via the fingerprint identifier 601 and verify the fingerprint (e.g. compare with a pre-stored legal fingerprint, etc.). When the electronic device 300 determines that the collected fingerprint matches the legal fingerprint, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and opens the GUI of the application corresponding to the notification 608 (e.g. the interface shown in Figure 6E Figure 4G

[0151] As shown, the electronic device 300 detects a second touch event 611 (i.e. a swipe gesture) of the user's finger 606 on the notification 608. The starting position of the second touch event 611 can be in the display area of the notification 608 on the touch screen 104, and the ending position of the second touch event 611 can be at the location of the fingerprint identifier 611, i.e. the ending position of the swipe gesture 611 is outside the touch screen 104. In response to the second touch event 611, the electronic device 300 can collect a fingerprint via the fingerprint identifier 601 and verify the fingerprint (e.g. compare with a pre-stored legal fingerprint, etc.). When the electronic device 300 determines that the collected fingerprint matches the legal fingerprint, the electronic device 300 unlocks the screen and opens the GUI of the application corresponding to the notification 608 (e.g. the interface shown in Figure 6F ​​​​As shown, in some other embodiments of this application, various notifications can be displayed at a location near the touchscreen of the fingerprint reader 601, which makes it easier for users to quickly unlock the screen and view messages. Figure 6F In the display, notification 608 is shown on touchscreen 104, and its position is very close to that of fingerprint reader 601. The user's finger 606 only needs to make a short swipe gesture 612 for the electronic device 300 to collect and verify the fingerprint. Upon successful fingerprint verification, the screen is quickly unlocked and the GUI of the application corresponding to notification 608 (such as...) is displayed. Figure 4G (As shown).

[0152] In some embodiments of this application, the fingerprint reader may also be located on the back of the electronic device 300, such as... Figure 7A As shown, the back cover 706 of the electronic device 300 is equipped with two cameras 201, and a fingerprint reader 701 below the cameras 201. Figure 7B As shown, the lock screen of electronic device 300 displays two notifications 702 and 703, with the user holding the electronic device 300 in their right hand. The index finger 704 touches the fingerprint reader 701 on the back of the electronic device 300, while the thumb 705 touches the notification 703 displayed on the touchscreen 104. In this scenario, the electronic device 300 can quickly collect and verify a fingerprint using the fingerprint reader 701 on the back (e.g., the collected fingerprint can be compared with a pre-stored valid fingerprint). After successful fingerprint verification, the screen is quickly unlocked, and the GUI of the application corresponding to notification 703 is displayed. Through the technical solution of this embodiment, the electronic device can quickly perform fingerprint recognition, unlock the screen, and open the application's GUI when the user holds the electronic device in the most natural way, greatly improving the efficiency of the electronic device in handling tasks and further enhancing the user experience.

[0153] In other embodiments of this application, to enhance security, facial feature information or iris information can be collected via the front-facing camera 307 simultaneously with fingerprint verification as described in the above embodiments. The electronic device 300 can compare the collected facial feature information with pre-stored legitimate facial feature information, or compare the collected iris information with pre-stored legitimate iris information. Only when both fingerprint verification and facial feature information verification are successful, or both fingerprint verification and iris information verification are successful, will the electronic device 300 unlock the screen and display the GUI of the application corresponding to notification 703.

[0154] like Figure 8As shown, this application provides a method for processing notifications. This method can be implemented in an electronic device (such as a mobile phone 100) having a touchscreen 104 and a fingerprint reader 112. This method can implement the specific solutions in the above embodiments. The method may include the following steps:

[0155] Step S801: Display a graphical user interface on the touchscreen of the electronic device.

[0156] For example, the graphical user interface (GUI) can be displayed on the screen of the aforementioned touchscreen. Specifically, the GUI can be a lock screen interface, which may include various interface elements, such as... Figure 3A , 4A The interface elements displayed in models such as 5A-5C, 6A, and 10A. Specifically, the lock screen interface may include one or more notifications, which may be new notifications received by the electronic device. These notifications may be displayed in a first area of ​​the lock screen interface, which is a portion of the display area of ​​the lock screen interface. For example, as shown... Figure 4A As shown, notifications 401 and 402 are displayed in the first area of ​​the lock screen (not shown by labels in the image), and as... Figure 5B As shown, notification 501 is displayed in the first area of ​​the lock screen (not shown by a label in the image). It is used to display various interface elements (such as icons, controls, widgets, etc.).

[0157] In other embodiments of this application, the above notification is displayed in a first area of ​​the lock screen interface, which may specifically include:

[0158] Upon receiving a new notification, the electronic device determines whether the received notification is a specific notification, which may be a notification bound to a second area. The meaning of a specific notification can be found in the descriptions in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0159] If the electronic device determines that the notification is not a specific notification, it displays the notification in the first area. If the electronic device determines that the notification is a specific notification, it displays the notification in the second area. In this scenario, the second area can be considered the specific area mentioned in the above embodiments. The specific notification can be a highest priority notification, a notification from a specific app, or a notification from a specific contact within an app. Specifically, the app can refer to a phonebook, SMS, email, or instant messaging software (such as WeChat or Facebook Messenger).

[0160] The lock screen interface can further include a fingerprint unlocking icon, which is used to visually prompt the user that fingerprint verification can be performed in the display area where the icon is located to unlock the screen. The fingerprint unlocking icon can be, for example, the icon 302 shown in Figure 3A , the icon 502 shown in Figure 5A , the icon 605 shown in Figure 6A , or the like. The fingerprint unlocking icon can be displayed in a second area in the lock screen interface, which is a portion of the display area in the lock screen interface. For example, as shown in Figure 4A , the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 is displayed in a second area (not shown by reference numeral in the figure) in the lock screen interface; for another example, as shown in Figure 5B , the fingerprint unlocking icon 502 is displayed in a second area (shown by reference numeral B in the figure) in the lock screen interface. The second area can correspond to the location of the fingerprint identifier in the touch screen, so that the user can conveniently perform unlocking when touching the touch screen. The lock screen interface can further include a prompt box (for example, the icon 303 shown in Figure 3A , the icon 503 shown in Figure 5A , the icon 604 shown in Figure 6A , or the like), which is used to display some unlocking-related prompt information on the touch screen to prompt the user and facilitate the user's operation. The prompt information in the prompt box can be, for example, "verify the fingerprint in this area to unlock the screen", and the like. The prompt information can be various contents in the above embodiments. The one or more notifications can be the notifications 401, 402, and the like in the above embodiments. Each notification has a corresponding application program or widget or other. When the user clicks the notification, the user interface of a certain application program can be opened, and specific information related to the notification can be displayed on the user interface. In this embodiment, unless otherwise specified, the notification can refer to the lock screen notification; of course, in other embodiments, the notification can refer to any one or more of the status bar notification, the floating notification, or the lock screen notification. In some other embodiments of the present application, the lock screen interface can further include other interface elements, for example, the lock screen wallpaper 301, the time and date 305, the icon 304 for quickly starting the camera, and the like in Figure 3A . In the embodiments of the present application, the first area and the second area are two different display areas in the lock screen interface, and the first area and the second area can be mutually non-overlapping or can have partially overlapping areas. In some other embodiments of the present application, the first area and the second area can also be the same display area in the lock screen interface.

[0161] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, etc. can be adopted in the embodiments of the present application to describe the display areas on the lock screen interface, the display areas should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the display areas from each other. For example, the first area can also be referred to as the second area, and similarly, the second area can also be referred to as the first area without departing from the scope of the embodiments of the present application.

[0162] Step S802: The electronic device detects a touch event on the touch screen.

[0163] Exemplarily, the touch event can be that a user taps or presses the touch screen with a finger (or a stylus, etc.) on a touch-sensitive surface (such as a touch panel) of the touch screen. Specifically, the touch event can be that the user taps or presses the touch screen with a finger, and slowly or quickly moves from a position where the finger taps or presses the touch screen to another position without leaving the touch screen; the touch event can also be that the user taps or presses the touch screen with a finger, and keeps still for a predetermined time (such as two seconds), and then slowly or quickly moves from a position where the finger taps or presses the touch screen to another position without leaving the touch screen; the touch event can also be that the user taps or presses the touch screen with a finger, and then slowly or quickly moves to another position; the touch event can also be that the user taps or presses the touch screen with a finger, and keeps still for a predetermined time, and then slowly or quickly moves to another position. It can be understood that the touch event can also be other types of gestures in addition to the gestures listed above, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the touch event.

[0164] The position where the user taps or presses the touch screen with a finger can be referred to as a first touch position, and the other position can be referred to as a second touch position. The first touch position of the touch event can be a position on the touch-sensitive surface of the touch screen. According to the description of the above embodiments, the first touch position of the touch event can correspond to the first area in the lock screen interface, that is, when the electronic device detects the touch event of the first touch position, the interface element (such as an icon, a control, etc.) corresponding to the first touch position in the first area can be changed in response to the touch event of the first touch position. The second touch position of the touch event can correspond to the second area of the lock screen interface, that is, when the electronic device detects the touch event of the second touch position, the interface element corresponding to the second touch position in the second area can be changed in response to the touch event of the second touch position. In some other embodiments of the present application, the second touch position can also be outside the touch screen. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 4B, the first touch position of the touch event 404 corresponds to the first area, and the second touch position of the touch event 404 corresponds to the second area. As another example Figure 4F Figure 6E ​As shown, the first touch position of the touch event 611 is in the first area on the touch screen, and the second touch position of the touch event is on the bezel 603 outside the touch screen.

[0165] In addition, in some other embodiments of the present application, the touch event in step S802 can also be completed by the above-mentioned first touch event and the above-mentioned second touch event mentioned in the above-mentioned embodiments. The specific definition of the first touch event and the second touch event can refer to the above-mentioned examples. For example, the first touch event can be that the user's finger taps or presses the touch screen and remains still within a predetermined time (for example, 2 seconds); the second touch event can be that the user's finger taps or presses the touch screen and moves from one position to another without leaving the touch screen.

[0166] In some embodiments of the present application, the notification displayed in the above-mentioned first area can also be dragged from the first area to the second area according to the above-mentioned touch event, so as to further prompt the user that the App corresponding to the notification will be opened.

[0167] Step S803: In response to the above-mentioned touch event, the electronic device collects the fingerprint at the above-mentioned second touch position and verifies it;

[0168] In the above-mentioned embodiments, since the second touch position corresponds to the above-mentioned second area in the lock screen interface, and the display area where the second area is located also corresponds to the position where the fingerprint recognizer in the touch screen is located, the above-mentioned electronic device can use the above-mentioned fingerprint recognizer to collect the fingerprint and verify it at the second touch position. In some other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can start the fingerprint recognition function (i.e. the fingerprint recognizer is powered on to start working or is woken up from hibernation) only after detecting the above-mentioned touch event of the user (the user's finger or stylus, etc.), which can further save the power of the electronic device. The electronic device can collect the user's fingerprint at the above-mentioned second touch position, and compare the above-mentioned collected fingerprint with the pre-stored legal fingerprint.

[0169] Step S804: After the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device can unlock the screen and open the App corresponding to the notification in the first area, and display the GUI of the App on the touch screen. The GUI contains the specific content in the above-mentioned notification, and the GUI can also include other content related to the App, such as Figure 4G or Figure 5F or Figure 10D as shown.

[0170] The method for processing notifications on the lock screen interface provided by the above-mentioned embodiments greatly improves the human-computer interaction ability between the electronic device and the user, improves the processing efficiency of the electronic device, simplifies the operation steps of the user, and also improves the user experience.

[0171] In some other embodiments of the present application, the step S803 can specifically include a step S8031: in response to the touch event, the electronic device can highlight the notification in the first region corresponding to the first touch position, for example, magnify the notification. For example, the touch event at the first touch position can be that the user taps or presses the touch screen hard and keeps still for a predetermined time. Highlighting the selected notification can more prominently prompt the user.

[0172] As shown in Figure 9 The embodiments of the present application provide a method for processing notifications, which can be implemented in an electronic device 300 (such as a mobile phone 100) having a touch screen 104 and a fingerprint recognizer 112. The method can specifically include the following steps:

[0173] Step S901: the electronic device detects a touch event on the touch screen, i.e., the touch screen is touched;

[0174] Step S902: in response to the touch event, the electronic device records the position (i.e., the touch position) of the touch event;

[0175] Step S903: the electronic device determines whether the touch position is a fingerprint recognition area. The fingerprint recognition area is the area where the fingerprint recognizer is located, so that the user can collect and verify the fingerprint. If it is determined that the touch position is the fingerprint recognition area, step S904 is performed; if it is determined that the touch position is not the fingerprint recognition area, step S908 is performed;

[0176] Step S904: collect the fingerprint;

[0177] Step S905: the electronic device determines whether the collected fingerprint matches the pre-stored fingerprint. If it is determined that the collected fingerprint matches the pre-stored fingerprint, step S906 is performed; if it is determined that the collected fingerprint does not match the pre-stored fingerprint, step S907 is performed;

[0178] Step S906: the electronic device unlocks the screen and opens the user interface of the application corresponding to the touch position;

[0179] Step S907: collect the fingerprint again and verify again. If the verification fails for a predetermined number of times, the user is prompted to input a password, which is used to unlock the screen;

[0180] Step S908: the electronic device determines whether the touch event becomes a sliding gesture. If the touch event becomes a sliding gesture, step S909 is performed; if the touch event does not become a sliding gesture, step S910 is performed;

[0181] Step S909: The electronic device determines whether the gesture slides to the fingerprint recognition area; if it is determined that the gesture slides to the fingerprint recognition area, the electronic device executes step S904; if it is determined that the gesture does not slide to the fingerprint recognition area, the electronic device executes step S911.

[0182] Step S910: The electronic device determines whether the fingerprint recognition area detects a touch event; if the electronic device determines that the fingerprint recognition area detects a touch event, the electronic device executes step S904; if it is determined that the fingerprint recognition area does not detect a touch event, the electronic device executes step S908.

[0183] Step S911: The electronic device determines whether the gesture leaves the touch screen; if the electronic device determines that the gesture leaves the touch screen, step S912 is executed; if the electronic device determines that the gesture does not leave the touch screen, step S909 is executed.

[0184] Step S912: The current operation process is ended.

[0185] The above-mentioned embodiments of the present application can accurately recognize the user's operation by continuously recognizing the touch event occurring on the touch screen, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the electronic device in handling transactions.

[0186] In the prior art, when the electronic device receives a new notification, the notification is displayed on the lock screen interface. If multiple notifications are received, the multiple notifications are displayed on the lock screen interface in the order of the receiving time. However, the user of the electronic device can only be interested in some types of notifications or in specific contents, and the above-mentioned notifications are displayed in a disorderly manner on the lock screen interface, which seriously reduces the human-computer interaction ability of the electronic device and the use efficiency thereof. In order to solve the technical problem, as shown in the Figure 12 The embodiments of the present application provide a method for processing notifications, which can be implemented in an electronic device (such as a mobile phone 100) having a touch screen 104 and a fingerprint recognizer 112. The method can specifically include the following steps.

[0187] Step S1201: Displaying a lock screen interface on the touch screen of the electronic device. The specific meaning of the lock screen interface and the interface elements included therein can be the same as or similar to those in the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0188] Step S1202: The electronic device receives a new notification. The specific meaning of the notification can be the same as or similar to that in the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0189] Step S1203: The electronic device determines whether the notification is a specific notification. The specific notification is a notification that is bound to the second region in the lock screen interface, and only the specific notification can be displayed in the second region. The meaning of the specific notification can be the specific explanation of the specific notification in the above embodiments. If the electronic device determines that the notification is a specific notification, step S1204 is performed; if the electronic device determines that the notification is not a specific notification, step S1205 is performed.

[0190] Step S1204: The notification is displayed in the second region in the lock screen interface.

[0191] Step S1205: The notification is displayed in the first region in the lock screen interface.

[0192] According to the above embodiments, different notifications received can be displayed in different display regions on the lock screen interface, which is more convenient for user operation. In addition, since the specific notification is displayed in the specific region, the user's attention is focused on the specific region, which is convenient for the user to quickly process important notifications or notifications of interest. This also improves the human-computer interaction ability of the electronic device and improves the user experience.

[0193] The first region and the second region can be two different display regions in the lock screen interface, for displaying various interface elements (such as icons, controls, widgets, etc.).

[0194] In addition, the second region (i.e., the specific region) can be the central display region in the lock screen interface, so that important or user-interested notifications can be displayed in a display region that is easy for the user to perceive.

[0195] In addition, an unlocking identifier can also be displayed in the second region, for prompting the user with some information related to unlocking the screen. For example, as shown in Figure 5C In the second region B, a fingerprint unlocking identifier 502 is displayed, and a prompt box 503 can also be displayed. Since the WeChat notification is a specific notification, the WeChat-related notification 504 is displayed in the specific region (i.e., the second region B).

[0196] In some other embodiments of the present application, in the case of step S1204 (i.e., the notification is displayed in the second region of the lock screen interface), the method can further include:

[0197] Step S1206: The electronic device detects a touch event on the touch screen. The touch event can be a gesture such as a finger tap or a heavy touch on the touch screen. The touch position on the touch screen where the touch event is located is the position of the fingerprint identifier in the touch screen, and the position on the touch screen where the touch event is located can correspond to the second region in the lock screen interface. For example, as shown inFigure 5E As shown in FIG. 4B, the user touches the touch screen with his finger 507, and the touch position is the position of the fingerprint identifier on the touch screen.

[0198] Step S1207: In response to the touch event, the electronic device collects the user's fingerprint at the touch position and performs verification. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 4C, after the user touches the touch screen, the user's fingerprint is collected at the touch position. Figure 5E

[0199] Step S1208: After the fingerprint verification passes, the electronic device unlocks the screen and opens the GUI of the App corresponding to the notification displayed in the second area. The GUI contains the specific content in the notification, and the GUI can also include other content related to the App, such as Figure 4G or Figure 5F or Figure 10D as shown in FIG. 4D. In some other embodiments, the method can further include step S1215: when the fingerprint verification fails, the electronic device prompts the user.

[0200] The method of the embodiments of the present application greatly improves the human-computer interaction capability between the electronic device and the user, improves the processing efficiency of the electronic device, simplifies the operation steps of the user, and also improves the user experience.

[0201] In some other embodiments of the present application, in the case of step S1205 (i.e., the notification is displayed in the first area of the lock screen interface), the method can further include:

[0202] Step S1209: The electronic device detects a first touch event on the touch screen. The first touch event can be a gesture such as a user's finger tapping or pressing the touch screen. The touch position of the first touch event on the touch screen corresponds to the first area in the lock screen interface, that is, the first touch event is directed to the notification displayed in the first area. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 4E, the user's finger 403 touches the touch screen, and the touch position is the notification 401 in the first area of the lock screen interface from the user's visual perspective. Figure 4E

[0203] Step S1210: In response to the first touch event, the notification is highlighted, for example, enlarged, etc. This facilitates prompting the user that the notification has been selected. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 4F, Figure 4D , 4E as shown in FIG. 4F, after the user's finger 403 touches the touch screen, the selected notification 401 is enlarged.

[0204] ​​Step S1211: The electronic device detects a second touch event on the touch screen. The second touch event includes a first touch position and a second touch position on the touch screen; the first touch position corresponds to the first region, and the second touch position corresponds to the second region. For example, as shown in FIG. 4B, the second touch event can be a sliding gesture 404 sliding from one position to another on the touch screen. Accordingly, it can be understood that the first touch position on the touch screen where the second touch event is located corresponds to the first region (i.e., the display region where the notification 401 is located) in the lock screen interface, and the second touch position on the touch screen where the second touch event is located corresponds to the second region (i.e., the display region where the fingerprint unlocking icon 302 is located) in the lock screen interface. Figure 4F

[0205] Step S1212: In response to the second touch event, the electronic device collects a fingerprint at the second touch position and performs verification.

[0206] In addition, in response to the second touch event, the notification 401 can also be dragged from the first region to the second region and displayed in the second region in terms of display effect. By displaying the dragged notification, the user can directly see which notification will be displayed in the second region, so as to further operate the user and improve the user experience.

[0207] Step S1213: After the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device unlocks the screen and opens the GUI of the App corresponding to the selected notification. The GUI includes the specific content in the notification, and the GUI can also include other content related to the App, such as the App icon, the App name, the App update information, the App notification, the App operation information, etc. Figure 4G Figure 5F Figure 10D

[0208] Optionally, the method can further include step S1214: When the fingerprint verification fails, the electronic device can prompt the user.

[0209] In the embodiments of the present application, although the notification in step S1205 is not a specific notification and is not displayed in the second region, the notification can be dragged into the second region by simple operation of the user, and the screen is unlocked and the App corresponding to the notification is opened, which improves the user experience.

[0210] ​​​​In the prior art, when a user needs to make a call, the user can directly operate on the mobile phone, for example, opening a phonebook, selecting a contact in a displayed contact list, and clicking a certain phone number in a contact detail interface to make a call. However, the inventors have found in the implementation of the embodiments that in the prior art, the mobile phone cannot distinguish whether the user currently making the call operation is a legal user, which leads to the fact that an illegal user can make calls at will, and thus the privacy of the user can be leaked. To solve the above technical problem, the embodiments of the present application provide a method for making a call, which can be implemented in an electronic device having a touch screen and a fingerprint identifier. As shown in FIG. 8, the method can include the following steps. Figure 14

[0211] Step S1401: displaying a communication number of a contact on a specific area of the touch screen. The communication number can be a phone number or an instant messaging number such as a WeChat ID, a Facebook messenger ID, etc. The display position of the specific area corresponds to the position of the fingerprint identifier in the touch screen.

[0212] Step S1402: detecting a touch event on the touch screen, and the position of the touch event corresponds to the position of the fingerprint identifier in the touch screen.

[0213] Step S1403: in response to the touch event, the electronic device collects a fingerprint by using the fingerprint identifier and performs verification.

[0214] Step S1404: after the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device calls the contact corresponding to the communication number.

[0215] Optionally, the method can further include step S1405: when the fingerprint verification fails, displaying a prompt box on the touch screen, and the prompt box is used to prompt the user with the following information: the electronic device does not call the contact corresponding to the communication number due to the failure of the fingerprint verification. Specifically, the information in the prompt box can be "fingerprint verification fails, call fails" or the like.

[0216] By the method of the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can make a call only after the fingerprint verification is passed, which protects the privacy of the user.

[0217] ​In the prior art, when an electronic device (e.g. a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc.) receives an incoming call, the operation can be directly performed on the electronic device, for example, touching a virtual button on a touch screen can answer / reject the incoming call. However, the inventors have found in the implementation of the embodiments that in the prior art, the electronic device cannot distinguish whether the user currently performing the answering operation is a legal user, which leads to the non-legal user answering the call at will, and thus the privacy can be leaked. In order to solve the above technical problem, as shown in Figure 15 The embodiments of the present application provide a method for answering / rejecting an incoming call, which can be implemented in an electronic device with a touch screen and a fingerprint identifier. The method can include:

[0218] Step S1501: receiving a new incoming call;

[0219] Step S1502: displaying function controls including a control for rejecting the incoming call and a control for answering the incoming call on a specific area of the touch screen. The specific area is provided with the fingerprint identifier.

[0220] Step S1503: detecting a touch event on the touch screen; the touch event can be a sliding gesture moving from one position on the touch screen to another position.

[0221] Step S1504: in response to the touch event, the electronic device collects the fingerprint of the user and performs verification.

[0222] Step S1505: after the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device answers / rejects the incoming call.

[0223] Optionally, the method can further include step S1506: when the fingerprint verification fails, the electronic device displays a prompt box for prompting information that the verification fails, for example, the information can be "fingerprint verification fails, and the incoming call is prohibited to be answered / rejected".

[0224] Through the method of the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can only answer / reject the corresponding incoming call after the fingerprint verification is passed, which protects the privacy security of the user.

[0225] Exemplarily, as shown in Figures 16A-16C The related GUI for answering an incoming call in the embodiments of the present application. In Figure 16A , the electronic device receives an incoming call from a contact 1604 (Little Prince), and thus displays an incoming call GUI on the touch screen, which includes a control 1603 for rejecting the incoming call, a control 1602 for answering the incoming call, and a control 1601 indicating that the finger 1605 of the user can be touched thereon and moved to the position of the control 1602 or the control 1603 without leaving the touch screen, so as to answer or reject the incoming call. As Figure 16BAs shown, a swipe gesture 1606 by the user on the touch screen moves the control 1601 to the location where the control 1602 is located. At this time, the electronic device, in response to the touch event (i.e., the swipe gesture 1606), uses the fingerprint sensor in the touch screen to collect the fingerprint of the user and perform verification. After the fingerprint verification is passed, the electronic device answers the incoming call of the contact and displays a GUI as shown in FIG. 16C.
