[0013] The following clearly describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present application are all within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0014] The terms "first," "second," etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are intended to distinguish between similar objects and are not intended to describe a particular order or sequence. It is to be understood that terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate, such that the embodiments of the present application may be performed in other orders than those shown or described herein, and that the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc. are generally of the same type and do not limit the number of objects, e.g., the first object may be one or more. Note that "and / or" in the specification and claims refers to at least one of the objects connected, and the character " / " generally refers to an "or" relationship between the related objects.

[0015] The message reminding method according to the embodiment of the present application is applied to a scenario in which prompt information of an unread message is displayed, and the specific application scenario may be determined according to actual usage needs, and the present application does not specifically limit it.

[0016] Taking the prompt information of a target message being displayed in the dialogue interface of a target group as an example, when the dialogue interface of the target group is displayed on the electronic device, a user can trigger the electronic device to establish an association relationship between N contacts among the multiple contacts corresponding to the target group, thereby receiving a target message corresponding to the target group, and when the target message includes a contact identifier of a contact among the N contacts, the other contacts among the N contacts other than the contact will all receive the prompt message in the dialogue interface of the target group and can read the target message in a timely manner.

[0017] Specifically, when the interaction interface of the target group is displayed on the electronic device, the user can input contact identifiers of Contact 1, Contact 2, and Contact 3 among the multiple contacts corresponding to the target group to trigger the electronic device to establish an association relationship between Contact 1, Contact 2, and Contact 3, so that when Contact 4 sends a target message in the interaction interface of the target group and @s Contact 1 (or Contact 2, Contact 3), a prompt message can be displayed in the interaction interface of the target group to prompt Contact 2 and Contact 3 to read the target message, so that Contact 4 can enter the interaction interface of the target group. When a target message is sent in the target group dialogue interface and only Contact 1 is prompted to read the target message in a timely manner, Contact 2 and Contact 3, which have established an association relationship with Contact 1, can both receive the prompt message, thereby prompting Contact 2 and Contact 3 to read the target message in a timely manner. Therefore, when Contact 4 sends a target message in the target group dialogue interface, he does not need to @ Contact 1, @ Contact 2, and @ Contact 3 respectively to remind the three contacts to read the target message in a timely manner. Therefore, by simplifying the user's operation, the efficiency of the electronic device to remind the user to read the message is improved.

[0018] Hereinafter, a message reminding method according to an embodiment of the present application will be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof in conjunction with the drawings.

[0019] An embodiment of the present application provides a message reminding method, and Fig. 1 shows a flow chart of the message reminding method according to an embodiment of the present application, which may be applied to an electronic device. As shown in Fig. 1, the message reminding method according to an embodiment of the present application may include the following steps 201 and 202:

[0020] Step 201, the electronic device receives a targeted message via a first account.

[0021] In an embodiment of the present application, the targeted message includes a targeted identifier.

[0022] Step 202: if the first account corresponds to the first contact, the electronic device outputs a first prompt message.

[0023] In an embodiment of the present application, the target identifier is a contact identifier of the second contact and a target Subgroup identifier and this target Sub The group includes a first contact, the first contact and the second contact are both contacts in the target group, and the first contact and the second contact have an association relationship.

[0024] In an embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device receives a targeted message corresponding to a second contact in a target group, and the targeted message includes a contact identifier of the second contact, the electronic device displays a first prompt message in an interaction interface of the target group to prompt the first contact to read the targeted message in a timely manner.

[0025] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device receives a targeted message through a first account and the targeted message includes a target identifier, output and display a first prompt message on the interaction interface of the target group.

[0026] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first account is an account corresponding to a target group that has already been logged into the electronic device.

[0027] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the target message is a message corresponding to a second contact in the target group, and the first prompt message is used to prompt the first contact to read the target message.

[0028] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the target Sub The contacts included in the group may have a corresponding relationship. For example, the contacts may be family members. The relationship may be a friendship relationship, or the plurality of contacts may be a coworker relationship, and so on.

[0029] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the targeted message is sent to a target of a target group. Sub It may also be a message sent by another contact other than the contacts included in the group, and this message prompts the second contact to read it in a timely manner (ie @ing the second contact).

[0030] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first contact may output a first prompt message when receiving the target message, and optionally the second contact or the target Sub The first prompt message is also output when multiple contacts included in the group receive the target message, and optionally, the first prompt message is not output when other contacts receive the target message.

[0031] An embodiment of the present application provides a message reminding method, in which an electronic device is targeted by a first account. Sub When the electronic device receives a targeted message including an identifier of the group or a contact identifier of the second contact, if the first account corresponds to the first contact, output a first prompt message. When the electronic device receives a targeted message in the target group through the first account and the targeted message corresponds to the first contact, output a first prompt message. Sub When the electronic device includes an identifier of the group or a contact identifier of the second contact, when the first account corresponds to the first contact, the electronic device can display a first prompt message in the interaction interface of the target group to prompt the first contact to read the target message, so that other contacts can send messages in the interaction interface of the target group and read the target message. Sub When prompting a group or a second contact, the electronic device can prompt the first contact in a timely manner to read the targeted message, so that the targeted message is read by the first contact in a timely manner. SubWhen the message includes an identifier of the group or a contact identifier of the second contact, and the first contact and the second contact have an association relationship, a first prompt message can be displayed in the interaction interface of the target group to prompt the first contact to read the target message in a timely manner, thereby improving the efficiency of the electronic device reminding the user to read the message.

[0032] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 2 in combination with FIG. 1, before the above step 201, the message reminding method according to the embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps 203 and 204.

[0033] Step 203: When displaying an interface corresponding to a target group, the electronic device receives a first input from a user.

[0034] In an embodiment of the present application, the first input is an input for contact identifiers of the user's N contacts, the N contacts including the first contact, where N is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0035] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the N contacts are contacts among a plurality of contacts corresponding to a target group.

[0036] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the interface corresponding to the target group may be understood as a group member list interface of the target group, and the user may make a first input for contact identifiers of the N contacts in this group member list interface.

[0037] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the above first input may include multiple sub-inputs, and when a user displays an interaction interface of a target group on an electronic device through these multiple sub-inputs, the user first triggers the electronic device to display a group member list interface of the target group, and then inputs contact identifiers of the N contacts displayed in the group member list interface.

[0038] Step 204. The electronic device responds to the first input and targets the N contacts. Sub Determine the contacts in the group and establish an association relationship between the N contacts.

[0039] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device determines, based on a selection input (i.e., a first input) for N contacts among the plurality of contacts corresponding to the user's target group, that an association relationship needs to be established among the N contacts, and associates the N contacts (i.e., one Sub Combine as a group).

[0040] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned establishing an association relationship between the N contacts can be performed by grouping the N contacts into a single Sub This may be understood as binding the N contacts together, thereby determining the target Sub In a group, when any one of N contacts is @ed, all of the N contacts can receive the prompt message.

[0041] Optionally, it should be noted that the actor who performs the first input to trigger the electronic device to establish the association relationship among the N contacts may be any one of the N contacts or the administrator of the target group. That is, if a contact is neither one of the N contacts nor the administrator of the target group, the contact cannot trigger the electronic device to establish the association relationship among the N contacts. And the same contact may perform the first input to trigger the electronic device to establish the association relationship among the N contacts. Sub may be combined into groups (i.e. the same contact may Sub may be combined repeatedly into groups).

[0042] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, after establishing an association relationship between the N contacts, when a contact sends a targeted message in the target group (i.e., receives a targeted message corresponding to the target group), and the targeted message includes a contact identifier of a second contact (i.e., the targeted message is a message addressed to the second contact), an electronic device owned by the first contact (i.e., the electronic device corresponds to the first contact) displays a first prompt message in the interaction interface of the target group to prompt the first contact to read the targeted message in a timely manner.

[0043] It should be explained that in a target group, when a contact sends a message to another contact (e.g., a second contact) and prompts the other contact to read the message in a timely manner, in order to prevent the other contact from being unable to reply to the message in a timely manner, the second contact can prompt the first contact to read and reply to the message in a timely manner by establishing an association relationship between the second contact (i.e., the second contact) and the first contact through the above method.

[0044] For example, in one specific implementation, for example, in a kindergarten class group, both the father and mother of the student should be members of this group. In the case of daily group communication, such a scenario will be encountered. A teacher may send a message to a parent of a student, and if this parent does not notice the message in a timely manner, another parent will generally not be able to pay attention to this message in a timely manner, or the teacher may not be able to notice the message in a timely manner. When the teacher collects the relevant information, one of the parents of the student has already replied, and the other parent is not likely to pay attention to whether there is a reply message and will reply again. Therefore, the above embodiment establishes a relationship between the two parents of the student, so that they can pay attention to each other's messages and read them in a timely manner.

[0045] For illustrative purposes, the electronic device is a mobile phone. As shown in FIG. 3A, when displaying the group member list interface of the target group, the user selects and inputs the contact 1 and the contact 4 displayed in the group member list interface to establish a relationship between the contact 1 and the contact 4 (i.e., one Sub 3B, the mobile phone can be triggered to combine Contact 1 and Contact 4 into one group. Sub It is displayed as Group 1 and is the default setting on the mobile phone. Sub This will be displayed as the group name and the user will Sub The group name can be renamed.

[0046] Also, by way of example, combining FIG. 3B with FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B, when a contact sends a message and selects a contact to be reminded, the mobile phone can display the contact in the two display formats shown in the figures. As shown in FIG. 4A, the mobile phone can: SubContact 1 and Contact 4 can be indicated by displaying the identifier of Group 1, in which case the user can read the relationship between Contact 1 and Contact 4; as shown in (B) of FIG. 4, the mobile phone can normally display the identifiers of Contact 1 and Contact 4 (i.e., display the identifiers of Contact 1 and Contact 4 separately), in which case the user cannot read the relationship between Contact 1 and Contact 4, and only the processor inside the mobile phone can determine the relationship between Contact 1 and Contact 4.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device receives a targeted message corresponding to a second contact in the target group, and the targeted message is Sub Group identifier or target Sub If the target message includes a contact identifier of a second contact in the group, outputting a first prompt message in an interaction interface of the target group to prompt the first contact to read the target message. Sub When the target message includes an identifier of the group or a contact identifier of the second contact, the electronic device can display a first prompt message in the dialogue interface of the target group to prompt the first contact to read the target message, so that when other contacts send messages in the dialogue interface of the target group and prompt the second contact, the electronic device can prompt the first contact to timely read the target message corresponding to the second contact. Thus, when the target message includes the contact identifier of the second contact and the target SubWhen establishing an association relationship among the N contacts by a group, a first prompt message can be displayed in the interaction interface of the target group to prompt other contacts among the N contacts to read the target message in a timely manner, thereby improving the efficiency of the electronic device reminding the user to read the message.

[0048] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 5 in combination with FIG. 2, the above step 204 may be specifically realized by the following step 204a.

[0049] Step 204a, the electronic device responds to the first input by sending a request message to a server corresponding to a target group, and targets the N contacts. Sub A server is requested to determine the N contacts as contacts in the group, and the server stores the association relationships between the N contacts.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present application, when the target message includes a contact identifier of at least one contact among the N contacts, the first prompt message is displayed in all of the interaction interfaces of the target group corresponding to the N contacts.

[0051] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can group N contacts into one target group by sending a request message to a server corresponding to the target group. Sub The server can be triggered to determine as a group, so that each of the multiple contacts corresponding to the target group can read the association relationships of the N contacts in the interface (i.e., each of the multiple contacts corresponding to the target group can see the interface shown in (A) in Figure 4).

[0052] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device (the electronic device corresponding to the first contact) can only target the N contacts in the device. SubThe N contacts can be determined as a group, the relationship relationships between the N contacts can be stored, and the relationship relationships between the N contacts can be sent to other contacts other than the first contact among the N contacts, so that each contact among the N contacts can determine the relationship relationships between the N contacts, but other contacts among the multiple contacts corresponding to the target group (i.e., contacts other than the N contacts) do not need to determine the relationship relationships between the N contacts (i.e., the other contacts can see the interface shown in (B) in Figure 4).

[0053] It should be noted that the contact can see the interface shown in FIG. 4B in the interface and select any one of the N contacts (i.e. Sub When contacting contact 1 or contact 4 in group 1, the interaction interfaces of the target group corresponding to contact 1 and contact 4 can both display a first prompt message.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device sends a request message to a server corresponding to a target group, and maps N contacts to one target group. Sub By requesting the server to determine the N contacts as a group and storing the association relationships among the N contacts in the server, when the target message includes a contact identifier of at least one of the N contacts, a first prompt message can be displayed in all of the dialogue interfaces of the target group corresponding to the N contacts. Thus, by establishing the association relationships among the N contacts, the efficiency of the electronic device reminding multiple users to read messages is improved.

[0055] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 6 in combination with FIG. 2, after the above step 204, the message reminding method according to the embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps 301 and 302.

[0056] Step 301, the electronic device is a user target Sub A second input for the group is received.

[0057] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, N contacts are grouped into one target Sub After determining as a group and storing the association relationships between the N contacts, the first contact among the N contacts (i.e., the user who establishes the association relationships between the N contacts) is the target Sub You can edit and set the group.

[0058] Step 302, the electronic device responds to a second input and Sub Coordinate N contacts corresponding to the group.

[0059] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first contact may be selected as a target in the group member list interface. Sub Editing the group allows you to Sub Adding new contacts to a group, target Sub Deleting a contact in a group, target Sub Disbanding the group, target Sub Leaving a group, target Sub Transfer group admin (i.e. target Sub Target the group's edit permissions Sub The electronic device can be triggered to perform at least one of: transferring the received message to another contact in the group;

[0060] Illustratively, in combination with (B) in FIG. 3, as shown in (A) in FIG. 7, the user may select a group member list interface including contact 1 and contact 4. Sub Enter the information for Group 1 and click Sub The "Leave Group" and " Sub Triggers the phone to display the "Edit Group" control, and the user can Sub By inputting to the "Leave Group" control, Sub Users can leave the group directly. Sub If the user is an administrator for a group, Sub To leave a group, Sub After transferring the group administrator Sub You can leave the group, and the user can Sub When the user inputs something into the "Edit Group" control, the mobile phone displays the following message, as shown in (B) of FIG. Sub The group editing interface appears. Sub The group editing interface has controls for adding new contacts (i.e. the plus sign control), deleting contacts (i.e. the minus sign control), transferring ownership, and Sub and controls to disband the group.

[0061] It should be noted that the user Sub If the user is not the administrator of the group, the contacts 1 and 4 in the group member list interface are included. Sub When entering data for group 1, the mobile phone will display " Sub Only the "Leave Group" control is displayed, but " Sub The "Edit Group" control does not need to be visible.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, N contacts are treated as one target. Sub After determining the group, the user can select the target Sub Enter input for the group and target Sub Edit the group and target Sub The electronic device can be triggered to adjust the number of N contacts corresponding to the group, thereby targeting Sub The contacts included in the group can be flexibly adjusted, giving electronic devices greater flexibility in reminding multiple users to read messages.

[0063] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, in combination with FIG. 2, as shown in FIG. 8, after the above step 202, the message reminding method according to the embodiment of the present application may further include the following step 401.

[0064] Step 401: the electronic device outputs a second prompt message when receiving a first message sent in a dialogue interface of a target group by a third contact.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present application, the second prompt message is used to prompt the first contact to read the first message, where the first message is a reply message to the target message of the third contact, and the third contact reads the target message. Sub This is the contact point for the group.

[0066] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the targeted message corresponding to the target group received by the electronic device may include a contact identifier of at least one contact among the N contacts, and a contact among the N contacts (i.e., the third contact) may be the target. When the first message is sent in the interaction interface of the target group, a second prompt message is displayed in the interaction interface of the target group to prompt other contacts among the N contacts to read the first message.

[0067] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the target message includes a contact identifier of at least one contact among the N contacts, which indicates that the target message includes a target Sub It may be understood that an identifier for the group is included, or that the targeted message includes an identifier for any one of the N contacts.

[0068] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device receives a targeted message corresponding to a target group, and the targeted message includes a contact identifier of at least one contact among the N contacts, a first prompt message may be displayed in each of the interaction interfaces of the target group corresponding to each contact among the N contacts.

[0069] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when a third contact among the N contacts reads the target message and sends a reply message (i.e., a first message) in the dialogue interface of the target group, a second prompt message may be displayed in each of the dialogue interfaces of the target group corresponding to each contact among the N contacts, to prompt each contact among the N contacts that a contact has replied to the target message.

[0070] For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, a contact sends a targeted message in a dialogue interface of a target group; Sub @ Group 1 (or Sub When Contact 1 (or Contact 4) replies to the target message in the target group's dialogue interface, the target group's dialogue interface corresponding to Contact 1 and Contact 4 may both display the prompt information "Someone can @ us", and the user can trigger the mobile phone to jump to the display position where the target message is located (or highlight the target message) by inputting information on this prompt information. As shown in (B) in FIG. 9, when Contact 1 (or Contact 4) replies to the target message in the target group's dialogue interface, the target group's dialogue interface corresponding to Contact 4 (or Contact 1) displays the prompt information "Someone has replied to your message", so that Contact 4 does not need to reply repeatedly.

[0071] In an embodiment of the present application, when an electronic device receives a targeted message corresponding to a target group, and the targeted message includes a contact identifier of at least one contact among the N contacts, when a contact among the N contacts replies to the targeted message in the interaction interface of the target group, the electronic device may display a second prompt message in the interaction interface of the target group corresponding to other contacts among the N contacts, to prompt these contacts that some contacts have already replied to the targeted message, thereby avoiding multiple users from repeatedly replying to the message.

[0072] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, after the above step 202, the message reminding method according to the embodiment of the present application may further include the following step 402.

[0073] Step 402, the electronic device outputs second prompt information when receiving a second message sent by a second contact in the interaction interface of the target group.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present application, the second message is a reply message to the second contact's targeted message.

[0075] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device receives a target message through a first account and a second contact sends a reply message (i.e., a second message) to the target message in the interaction interface of the target group, second prompt information may be output and displayed on the first account (i.e., the first contact) to prompt the first contact that the second contact has already replied to the target message in the interaction interface of the target group.

[0076] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 10 in combination with FIG. 1, after the above step 202, the message reminding method according to the embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps 501 and 502.

[0077] Step 501, the electronic device receives a third input in response to a first prompt message from a user.

[0078] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when a contact among the N contacts receives a target message corresponding to a target group and displays a first prompt message in the interaction interface of the target group, the contact may provide an input in response to the displayed prompt message to trigger the electronic device to display only the target message in the interaction interface of the target group, but hide unrelated messages.

[0079] Step 502, the electronic device responds to the third input and hides a third message in the interaction interface of the target group.

[0080] In an embodiment of the present application, the third message is a message other than the target message in the interaction interface of the target group.

[0081] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device can display only the target message in the interaction interface of the target group based on the user's input to the first prompt message, thereby preventing interference from other messages in the message reading process.

[0082] In an embodiment of the present application, when an electronic device receives a target message corresponding to a target group and also receives a first prompt message, a user can provide input in response to the first prompt message to control the electronic device so that only the target message is displayed in the dialogue interface of the target group, so that in the dialogue interface of the target group, a third message other than the target message is in a hidden state, thereby making it easy for the user to read the target message.

[0083] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the above step 203 may be specifically realized by the following step 203b.

[0084] Step 203b, in response to the first input, the electronic device associates each of the N-1 contacts with the first contact.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned N-1 contacts are contacts other than the first contact among the N contacts, where when a targeted message corresponding to the target group is received and a third contact among the N-1 contacts is marked, both the third contact and the first contact can receive the first prompt message.

[0086] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first contact may, through a first input, respectively associate multiple contacts with itself (i.e., the first contact), thereby allowing the first contact to read messages corresponding to the already associated contacts in a timely manner.

[0087] It should be noted that associating each of the N-1 contacts with the first contact may be understood to bring each of the N-1 contacts to the attention of the first contact, thereby enabling the first contact to pay attention to messages from the N-1 contacts in a timely manner.

[0088] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, after each contact among the N-1 contacts is associated with the first contact, when a contact sends a message in the dialogue interface of the target group and @s any one of the N-1 contacts, a prompt message may be displayed in the dialogue interface of the target group corresponding to the first contact, prompting that the contact associated with the first contact has received a new message.

[0089] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, after each contact among the N-1 contacts is associated with the first contact, when any one of the N-1 contacts sends a message in the interaction interface of the target group, a prompt message may be displayed in the interaction interface of the target group corresponding to the first contact, prompting that a contact associated with the first contact has sent a new message.

[0090] For example, combining (A) in Fig. 3, when a group member list interface of a target group is displayed on a mobile phone as shown in (A) in Fig. 11, the user can selectively input Contact 1 and Contact 4 to associate Contact 1 and Contact 4 with the user (i.e., make Contact 1 and Contact 4 the user's focus), and mark them with a star mark. As shown in (B) in Fig. 11, when a contact (e.g. Contact 8) sends a message in the dialogue interface of the target group and @s Contact 1 (or @s Contact 4), the prompt information "someone @s the focused contact" may be displayed in the dialogue interface of the target group corresponding to the first contact.

[0091] Also, by way of example, combining (B) in FIG. 11 with (A) in FIG. 12, when Contact 1 replies to the target message in the dialogue interface of the target group, the dialogue interface of the target group corresponding to the first contact may display prompt information, "the focused contact has sent a new message", so that the first contact can provide input to the prompt information, and as shown in (B) in FIG. 12, the mobile phone may only display messages @ to Contact 1 and messages sent by Contact 1 in the dialogue interface of the target group, so that the first contact can easily read the message corresponding to the focused contact.

[0092] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the user may select a group membership list for the target group. The associated contacts may be adjusted in the list interface to add new associated contacts or cancel associated contacts.

[0093] In an embodiment of the present application, a user can associate each contact among the N-1 contacts with the first contact through a first input, thereby making the N-1 contacts the focused contacts of the first contact, so that when the first contact receives the target message and marks the contact among the N-1 contacts, the first contact can receive a first prompt message and read the target message in a timely manner, thereby improving the efficiency of the electronic device reminding the user to read the message.
