Technical Field

[0002] Embodiments of the present application relate to the field of electronic technology, and more particularly, to a display method and an electronic device. Background Art

[0003] When using electronic devices, users often check the notification center for notification messages. When the notification center is crowded with notification messages, the electronic device typically arranges the messages in the order they were received. However, when there are too many notification messages, some important messages may be missed. In addition, too many notification messages may cause inconvenience to the user.

[0004] Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application provides a display method and electronic device. This technical solution can display different types of notification messages in different display partitions based on the notification message category, preventing users from missing important notifications. Furthermore, the electronic device can also implement batch management of multiple notification messages based on user operations to enhance the user experience.

[0006] In a first aspect, a display method is provided, which is applied to an electronic device, and the method includes: receiving multiple notification messages of different categories; in response to an operation of opening a notification center, displaying a first display interface of the notification center, the first display interface including multiple display partitions, each of the multiple display partitions including multiple notification messages from different applications but belonging to the same category of different categories; in response to an operation of folding a target display partition among the multiple display partitions, folding and displaying the notification messages of the multiple different applications included in the target display partition.

[0007] For example, the different categories of notification messages may be live notification messages, communication and social notification messages, service reminder notification messages, content information notification messages, etc. When an application pushes a notification message to an electronic device, it may label and classify the notification message according to its content.

[0008] Exemplarily, the electronic device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a head-mounted display device, a vehicle-mounted device, etc. This application does not limit the type of electronic device.

[0009] Based on the embodiment of the present application, after the electronic device receives multiple notification messages of different categories, it can display the notification messages in different display partitions according to the categories of the notification messages. When it detects the user's operation of folding the target display partition, the notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition can be folded and displayed.

[0010] In this way, when there are many notification messages displayed in the target display partition, the user can easily fold the notification messages in batches to make the display interface of the notification center more concise.

[0011] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, the electronic device folds and displays the notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition into a folded card, and the method further includes: in response to an operation of sliding on the folded card, displaying a delete function button for deleting the folded card; in response to an operation of clicking the delete function button, deleting the folded card.

[0012] In other examples, when the electronic device detects that the user has long pressed the folded card, it may also display a delete function button for deleting the folded card; or, when the electronic device detects that the user has slid to one side on the folded card, the electronic device may also directly delete the folded card, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0013] Based on an embodiment of the present application, an electronic device can fold notification messages from multiple different applications included in a target display partition into a folded card based on a user's folding operation. When a user swipes on the folded card, a delete function button for deleting the folded card can be displayed. When a user clicks the delete function button, the folded card can be deleted. In this way, the user can batch delete all notification messages in the target display partition.

[0014] In other examples, the electronic device can also fold notification messages of different applications into two or more folded cards based on time information. For example, one folded card displays notification messages within a preset time t, and one folded card displays notification messages before the preset time t.

[0015] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, the electronic device folds and displays notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition into a folded card, and the method further includes: deleting the folded card in response to a sliding operation on the folded card.

[0016] Based on the embodiment of the present application, the user can conveniently delete all notification messages of the target display partition in batches to simplify the display interface of the notification center.

[0017] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, the target display partition also includes a folding function button, wherein, in response to the operation of folding the target display partition among the multiple display partitions, the notification messages of the multiple different applications included in the target display partition are folded and displayed, including: in response to the operation of clicking the folding function button, the notification messages of the multiple different applications included in the target display partition are folded and displayed.

[0018] Based on the embodiment of the present application, the user can conveniently fold and display notification messages of multiple different applications in the target display partition by clicking the fold function button.

[0019] This technical solution can provide folding instructions for users, making it easier for users to learn how to fold the target display partition.

[0020] In other examples, the operation of folding the target display partition may also be an operation of the user sliding upward in the target display partition.

[0021] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: in response to the operation of closing the notification center, displaying a second display interface, the second display interface being the display interface before the electronic device displays the first display interface; in response to the operation of opening the notification center again, displaying the first display interface, wherein the notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition in the first display interface are still folded and displayed.

[0022] Exemplarily, the second display interface may be a display desktop, or a display interface of a certain application, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0023] Based on the embodiment of the present application, after the user returns to the second display interface previously displayed from the notification center, the electronic device can display the first display interface again in response to the user opening the notification center again, and the folded target display partition in the first display interface is still in a folded state, so that the notification center of the electronic device can retain the user's usage habits and avoid the user performing multiple folding operations.

[0024] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: in response to a user operation of expanding the target display partition, expanding and displaying notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition.

[0025] For example, the operation of expanding the target display partition can be an operation in which the user clicks the collapse function button again. For example, when the user clicks the collapse function button for the first time, the collapse function button can be changed to an expand function button. When the user clicks the collapse function button again, the multiple notification messages in the target display partition can be expanded and displayed. Alternatively, the operation of expanding the target display partition can also be an operation in which the user swipes down on the folded card corresponding to the target display partition, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0026] Based on the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can also expand and display multiple notification messages from different applications in the target display partition upon detecting a user's operation to expand the target display partition. This technical solution allows the user to find the notification message they want to view by expanding the target display card.

[0027] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, when there are multiple notification messages of the same category belonging to the same application, the notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition are expanded and displayed, including: folding and displaying the multiple notification messages of the same category belonging to the same application in the same target display card.

[0028] Based on the embodiments of the present application, when there are multiple notification messages of the same category belonging to the same application, when the electronic device expands the target display partition, the notification messages of different applications are expanded and displayed, but the multiple notification messages of the same category belonging to the same application are folded and displayed in the same target display card, so that when there are many notification messages, the user can view the notification messages sent by different applications as much as possible.

[0029] In other examples, the electronic device may also expand and display all notification messages, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0030] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: in response to the user's operation of expanding the target display card, expanding and displaying the multiple notification messages of the same category belonging to the same application.

[0031] Based on the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device detects the user's operation of expanding the target display card, multiple notification messages of the same category belonging to the same application can be expanded and displayed so that the user can view each notification message.

[0032] In conjunction with the first aspect, in an implementation of the first aspect, the folded display includes at least one of the following displays:

[0033] The application icons of the multiple different applications are displayed in an array; the display cards corresponding to the notification messages of the multiple different applications are displayed in a grid; and the display cards corresponding to the notification messages of the multiple different applications are displayed in a stacked manner.

[0034] It should be understood that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific form of folding display. For example, after folding, the electronic device can also display application icons and some text prompts.

[0035] Based on the embodiments of the present application, after the notification message is folded and displayed, it can be displayed in multiple ways, which improves the flexibility of the display.

[0036] In combination with the first aspect, in an implementation manner of the first aspect, the first display interface further includes an identifier for indicating titles of the multiple display partitions.

[0037] For example, the identifier may be the name of a title. Alternatively, the identifier may be a color, with different display partitions having different identifier colors. Alternatively, the identifier may be a shape, etc., which is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0038] Based on the embodiment of the present application, the first display interface also includes identifiers for indicating the titles of the multiple display partitions, thereby making it easier for the user to distinguish between the various display partitions.

[0039] In a second aspect, an electronic device is provided, comprising: one or more processors; one or more memories; the one or more memories storing one or more programs, which, when executed by one or more processors, enable the display method described in the first aspect and any possible implementation thereof to be executed.

[0040] In a third aspect, a display device is provided, comprising a module for implementing the display method as described in the first aspect, the second aspect, and any possible implementation thereof.

In the embodiment of the present application, the software structure of the electronic device 100 is exemplified by taking an operating system of a layered architecture as an example.

[0100] Figure 2 is a block diagram of the software structure of electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. A layered architecture divides software into several layers, each with distinct roles and responsibilities. Layers communicate with each other via software interfaces. In some embodiments, the operating system is divided into four layers: the application layer, the application framework layer, the system library layer, and the kernel layer, from top to bottom. The application layer may include a series of application packages.

[0109] The notification manager enables applications to display notification information in the status bar, which can be used to convey informational messages and disappear automatically after a short stay without user interaction.

[0110] The core library consists of two parts: one is the function that needs to be called by the Java language, and the other is the core library.

[0111] The application layer and application framework layer run in a virtual machine. The virtual machine executes Java files in the application layer and application framework layer as binary files. The virtual machine manages object lifecycles, stack management, thread management, security and exception management, and garbage collection.

[0112] The system library can include multiple functional modules, such as a surface manager, media libraries, a 3D graphics processing library (e.g., OpenGL ES), and a 2D graphics engine (e.g., SGL).

[0113] The surface manager is used to manage the display subsystem and provide fusion of 2D and 3D layers for multiple applications.

[0116] A 2D graphics engine is a drawing engine for 2D drawings.

[0117] The kernel layer is the layer between hardware and software. The kernel layer includes at least display driver, camera driver, audio driver, and sensor driver.

[0118] When using electronic devices, users often check the notification center for notification messages. The notification center of an electronic device typically arranges notification messages in the order they were received. However, when there are too many notification messages, users may miss some important ones. Furthermore, too many notification messages can be annoying for users.

[0119] In light of this, embodiments of the present application provide a display method and electronic device. This technical solution can display different types of notification messages in different display partitions based on the type of notification message, preventing users from missing important notifications. Furthermore, the electronic device can also implement batch management of multiple notification messages based on user operations to enhance the user experience.

[0120] The following will introduce the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with Figures 3-13.

[0121] FIG3 is a schematic diagram of a graphical user interface (GUI) provided by an embodiment of the present application, wherein (a) to (b) in FIG3 illustrate the process of the electronic device 200 displaying a notification message.

[0122] 3( a ), the GUI may be a display interface 210 of the electronic device 200 . The display interface 210 may include a plurality of applications (Apps) in the electronic device 200 .

[0123] When the electronic device 200 detects the user's operation of opening the notification center, it may display a GUI as shown in FIG. 3( b ).

[0124] For example, referring to (a) in FIG. 3 , the user's operation of opening the notification center may be an operation of the user sliding downward on the left side of the status bar of the electronic device 200 .

[0125] Alternatively, the user's operation of opening the notification center may also be an operation of the user sliding right on the display interface of the control center.

[0126] Alternatively, the user's operation of opening the notification center may also be an operation of the user inputting "open notification center" by voice.

[0127] Exemplarily, referring to (b) in FIG3 , the GUI is a display interface 220 of the notification center of the electronic device 200. The display interface 220 may include multiple display partitions. For example, the display interface 220 may include a display card 221 for App1, a display card 222 for text messages, and display cards for multiple apps included in content information. Among them, the content information may include a display card 224 for App2, a display card 225 for App3, a display card 226 for App4, and a display card 227 for App5. The display interface 220 may also include a collapse function button 2231 for collapsing content information and a delete function button 228.

[0128] Display card 221 may be a display card corresponding to a live notification message. For example, if App 1 is a food delivery app, display card 221 may be used to display the real-time status of a user's food delivery order. This allows the user to obtain the order status in real time. It should be understood that the display card corresponding to the live notification message may be displayed at the top of the notification center to make it easier for the user to see the message.

[0129] It is understandable that the live notification message can also be a notification message of travel apps such as taxi-hailing and ride-hailing, a real-time notification message of a football game, etc.

[0130] It is understood that the embodiment of the present application uses content information as an example to illustrate the title of the display section where display cards 224 to 227 are located. In other examples, the title can also be other names, for example, the title of the display section can also be "Content Notification", "Push Content", "Marketing Information", etc.

[0131] The display card 222 may be a communication social notification message, for example, the display card 222 may be a text message display card. Alternatively, the display card 222 may also be Notification messages, etc.

[0132] In other examples, when there are multiple communication and social notification messages from different applications, the multiple communication and social notification messages may be displayed in a collapsed manner.

[0133] In other examples, a service reminder notification message may be included above or below the communication and social networking notification message. For example, the service reminder notification message may include an account balance change, a schedule reminder, and the like.

[0134] It is understandable that, in the embodiment of the present application, if there is no live notification message, that is, the display card 221 does not exist, the display card 222 can be displayed at the top of the notification center.

[0135] In some examples, the display cards of the multiple Apps may include the App icon, the title of the information, the push time, etc. For example, in display card 225, the icon of App2, the title of the information "XXXXXXXXXXXX" and the push time "07:49" may be included.

[0136] It should be understood that the content displayed in the display card of the App is merely illustrative. In other examples, the content included in the display card can also be displayed according to specific circumstances and displayed in other layout forms.

[0137] When the electronic device 200 detects that the user clicks the delete function button 228, all or part of the notification messages in the notification center may be deleted.

[0138] Based on the embodiments of the present application, electronic devices can display notification messages in different display partitions of the notification center according to different categories of notification messages. For example, live notification messages can be displayed at the top of the notification center, communication and social notification messages and service reminder notification messages can be displayed in the middle of the notification center, and content information notification messages can be displayed at the bottom of the display interface of the notification center. This allows users to browse important live notification messages in a timely manner and avoid missing important messages.

[0139] FIG4 is a schematic diagram of another set of GUIs provided by an embodiment of the present application, wherein (a) to (e) in FIG4 illustrate the process of the electronic device 200 displaying notification messages and the user batch processing messages.

[0140] It should be understood that (a) to (b) in FIG. 4 can refer to the relevant description of (a) to (b) in FIG. 3 , and for the sake of brevity, they are not repeated here.

[0141] When the electronic device 200 detects that the user clicks the folding and unfolding function button 2231 , the electronic device 200 may display a GUI as shown in FIG. 4( c ).

[0142] Referring to (c) in FIG. 4 , the GUI is a display interface 230 of electronic device 200. In this display interface 230, the display cards for notification messages from various applications within the content information are folded into a single display card 231. This display card 231 may include icons for multiple apps, along with text such as "More content information from App2, App3, App4..." This allows multiple display cards within the content information to be folded with one click, making it easier for users to manage multiple display cards.

[0143] It should be understood that the display card 231 may also be called a folding card, and the display card 231 may also be displayed in other layout forms, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0144] When the electronic device 200 detects the user sliding the display card 231 to one side, the display card 231 may slide along with the user's finger, for example, the GUI shown in (d) in FIG. 4 may be displayed.

[0145] 4( d ), the GUI is a display interface 240 of the electronic device 200 . In the display interface 240 , a delete function button 241 may be displayed on one side of the display card 231 .

[0146] When the electronic device 200 detects that the user clicks the delete function button 241, it can display a GUI as shown in (e) in Figure 4 to achieve one-click deletion of notification messages of multiple apps.

[0147] 4( e ), the GUI is a display interface 250 of the electronic device 200. The display interface 250 includes a display card 221 for App1 and a display card 222 for a text message.

[0148] It is understandable that for multiple messages in other display partitions, the above method can also be used to batch collapse and delete them, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0149] Based on the embodiments of the present application, electronic devices can display notification messages in different categories in the notification center, allowing users to browse important live notification messages in a timely manner and avoid missing important messages. In addition, notification messages related to content information can be batch processed with one-click folding and one-click deletion, which is convenient for users to operate and can improve the user experience.

[0150] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of another set of GUIs provided by an embodiment of the present application, wherein (a) to (g) of Figure 5 illustrate the process of the electronic device 200 displaying a notification message and folding and unfolding the display card of the notification message according to the user's operation.

[0151] Among them, (a) to (c) in Figure 5 can refer to the relevant descriptions of (a) to (c) in Figure 4, and for the sake of brevity, they are not repeated here.

[0152] When the electronic device 200 detects the user sliding upward on the display interface 230 , the GUI shown in (d) of FIG. 5 may be displayed.

[0153] Referring to (d) in FIG. 5 , the GUI is the display interface 210 of the electronic device 200 .

[0154] When the electronic device receives the notification message pushed by App6 and detects the user's operation of opening the notification center again, the GUI shown in (e) in Figure 5 can be displayed.

[0155] 5( e ), the GUI is a display interface 240 of the electronic device 200. The display card 231 in the display interface 240 includes icons of App6, App2, and App3 and text content “More content information comes from App6, App2, App3…”.

[0156] In this way, when the electronic device returns to the display desktop from the notification center and then switches from the display desktop to the notification center, the notification center can maintain the folded display state of the original content information, thereby retaining the user's usage habits.

[0157] In addition, before the electronic device switches from the display desktop to the notification center again, if there is a notification message of content information pushed by a new application, the icon of the application from which the notification message comes will also be displayed in the folded display card, allowing the user to see the existence of new notification messages while retaining the user's usage habits.

[0158] When the electronic device 200 detects that the user has clicked the function button 2231, the GUI shown in FIG5(f) may be displayed. Alternatively, when the electronic device 200 detects that the user has clicked the display card 231, the GUI shown in FIG5(f) may also be displayed. Alternatively, when the electronic device detects that the user has swiped downward on the display card 231, the GUI shown in FIG5(f) may also be displayed.

[0159] 5( f ), the GUI is a display interface 260 of the electronic device 200. Compared with the display interface 220, the display interface 260 has a display card 2281 of the notification message of App 6 displayed on top of the content information for easy viewing by the user.

[0160] When the electronic device detects that the user clicks the function button 2241 in the display card 224, the electronic device may display a GUI as shown in (g) of FIG. 5 .

[0161] Referring to FIG. 5( g ), the GUI is a display interface 270 of electronic device 200. In display interface 270, display card 224, which originally contained multiple notification messages, is now expanded. The expanded display card 224 includes the titles and brief descriptions of the multiple notification messages, along with the delivery times. Display interface 260 also includes display card 229, which may include the icons of App 3, App 4, and App 5, which are not displayed in the notification center's display interface.

[0162] In this way, users can easily collapse multiple notification messages and conveniently view multiple notification messages by clicking the function button when needed.

[0163] In some cases, for a display card 231 formed by multiple display cards in a display area of ​​content information that is folded by a user clicking a fold and expand function button, the electronic device can display the display card 231 in multiple forms.

[0164] For example, Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of another set of GUIs provided by an embodiment of the present application, wherein (a) to (d) in Figure 6 illustrate various display forms of folded display cards.

[0165] As shown in FIG6(a), display card 232 may be another display form of display card 231. Compared with display card 231, display card 232 may only include the icon of the application that pushed the notification message. For example, display card 232 may include the icons of applications App2 through App7. Display card 232 may also include the text content "Content Information".

[0166] In other examples, the text content “Content Information” may not be included in the display card 232 .

[0167] As shown in FIG6( b ), display card 233 may be another display form of display card 231. Compared to display card 231, display card 233 may further include display card 2331 for App2, display card 2332 for App3, display card 2333 for App4, and application icons for App5 through App7. Display card 233 may also include text content "Content Information."

[0168] In other examples, the text content “Content Information” may not be included in the display card 233 .

[0169] It should be understood that the sizes and shapes of the display card 2331 , the display card 2332 , and the display card 2333 may be different or the same, and are not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0170] As shown in FIG6(c), display card 234 can be another display form of display card 231. Compared with display card 231, display card 234 can also include display card 2341 for App2, display card 2342 for App3, display card 2343 for App4, display card 2344 for App5, and application icons for App6 and App7. Display card 234 can also include the text "Content Information".

[0171] In other examples, the text content “Content Information” may not be included in the display card 234 .

[0172] It should be understood that the sizes and shapes of display card 2341, display card 2342, display card 2343, and display card 2344 may be different or the same, and are not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0173] As shown in FIG6( d ), display card 235 may be another display form of display card 231. Compared to display card 231, display card 235 may include multiple stacked display cards 2351, 2352, and 2353, as well as application icons App5 to App7. Display card 235 may also include text content "Content Information".

[0174] In other examples, the text content “Content Information” may not be included in the display card 235 .

[0175] In other examples, the display cards of App2 to App7 can all be stacked and displayed according to the push time, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0176] In the embodiment of the present application, the base images of the display cards included in display card 232, display card 233, display card 234, and display card 235 can be pushed according to the user's usage habits, and can also be displayed randomly.

[0177] It should be understood that the specific form of the folded display card 231 can be displayed randomly each time the user opens the notification center, or can be displayed based on the user's frequency of use.

[0178] In other examples, live notification messages or communication, social networking, and service reminder messages can be displayed in one of the above-mentioned multiple forms, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0179] In some cases, there may not be any live notification messages or no communication and social notification messages in the notification messages. The following describes the display scheme of the notification center in this case with reference to FIG7 .

[0180] FIG7 is a schematic diagram of another set of GUIs provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0181] Referring to (a) in FIG. 7 , the GUI is a display interface 310 of the notification center of the electronic device 300. The notification center does not include live notification messages, that is, the display interface 310 does not include a display card for live notifications. The display interface 310 can have two display partitions, namely, display partition 1 where the display card 222 for text messages is located, and display partition 2 where the display cards for multiple apps included in the content information are located. Display partition 2 can include a display card 224 for App2, a display card 225 for App3, a display card 226 for App4, and a display card 227 for App5. The display interface 310 can also include a delete function button 228.

[0182] It is understandable that when there is no live notification message, the display card of the communication and social message or service reminder message can be displayed at the top of the display interface of the notification center, and the display card of the content information notification message is displayed below the display card of the communication and social message or service reminder message.

[0183] When there are live notification messages and content information notification messages, but no communication and social messages or service reminder messages, the display card of the content information can be displayed below the display card of the live notification message.

[0184] For example, referring to (b) in FIG7 , the GUI is a display interface 320 of the notification center of the electronic device 300. The display interface 320 may include a display area 1 for live notification messages and a display area 2 for content information. The display area 1 may include a display card 221 for App 1. The display area 2 can be described in (a) of FIG7 and will not be repeated for the sake of brevity.

[0185] In some cases, there may be only some content information notification messages in the notification center. At this time, the electronic device can display the display cards of the content information notification messages in chronological order at the top of the display interface of the notification center.

[0186] For example, referring to (c) in FIG7 , the GUI is a display interface 330 of the notification center of the electronic device 300. The display interface 330 only includes a plurality of display cards of content information notification messages, and for details, please refer to the relevant description in (a) in FIG7 .

[0187] In some cases, in order to allow users to better distinguish between different display partitions, the notification center can also display subtitles of multiple display partitions.

[0188] For example, FIG8 is a schematic diagram of another set of GUIs provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0189] For (a) in FIG8 , please refer to the relevant description of (a) in FIG3 .

[0190] When the electronic device 300 detects that the user has opened the notification center, it may display a GUI as shown in FIG. 8( b ).

[0191] 8( b ), the GUI is a display interface 350 of the notification center of the electronic device 300. The display interface 350 may have multiple display partitions, each of which has subtitles of live notification, communication and social networking, service reminder, and content information.

[0192] Among them, the live notification may include a display card 351 of App1, the communication and social interaction may include a display card 352 of text messages, the service reminder may include a display card 353 of App7, and the content information may include a display card 354 of App2, a display card 355 of App3, and a display card 356 of App4.

[0193] In some cases, an electronic device may receive multiple notification messages from the same source. In this case, the electronic device generally puts the notification messages from the same source into the same group, which may cause important notification messages to be collapsed into the group, making it easy for the user to miss the important notification.

[0194] In an embodiment of the present application, after receiving multiple notification messages from the same source, the electronic device will first determine the category of the notification messages. When the categories of the multiple notification messages are different, the electronic device will display them in different display partitions to prevent the user from missing important notification messages.

[0195] Figure 9 is a schematic diagram of another set of GUIs provided by an embodiment of the present application. In particular, Figure 9 (a) to (b) shows the process of electronic device 400 displaying notification messages in partitions according to the categories of notification messages after receiving notification messages from the same source.

[0196] It should be understood that (a) in FIG. 9 can refer to the relevant description of (a) in FIG. 7 .

[0197] For example, when the electronic device 400 receives two notification messages A and notification message B pushed by App2, when the electronic device 400 determines that notification message A belongs to the content information category and notification message B belongs to the service reminder category based on the categories of notification message A and notification message B, the electronic device 400 can display the GUI shown in (b) in Figure 9.

[0198] Referring to FIG. 9( b ), the GUI is a display interface 430 of the notification center of electronic device 400. Compared to display interface 410 , display interface 430 includes a new display card 431 for notification message A, and a new notification message 4322 appears at the top of display card 224 for App2, reminding the user of the new content information pushed by App2. Display card 224 may also include a folding indicator 4321 for another notification message, reminding the user that there is a folded and undisplayed notification message.

[0199] It should be understood that when electronic device 400 determines that notification message A is classified as a service reminder, it can display it in the display partition where service reminder notification messages are located, and further determine whether there is a target display card for App 2 in the display partition where the service reminder notification message is located. If there is a target display card, the notification message can be folded and displayed within the target display card. If there is no target display card, the display card corresponding to notification message A is displayed separately.

[0200] In the embodiment of the present application, if the target display card of App2 does not exist in the display partition of the service reminder, the electronic device 400 can display the display card 431 of the notification message A separately in the display partition of the service reminder.

[0201] Similarly, if there is a display card 224 of App2 in the display area of ​​the content information, the electronic device 400 can fold and display the notification message B in the display card 224.

[0202] It is understandable that for each notification message received by the electronic device 400, the electronic device can display it through the above logic.

[0203] Based on the embodiment of the present application, for multiple notification messages from the same source, the electronic device will determine in which display partition to display them according to the category of the notification messages, thereby preventing users from missing important notification messages.

[0204] In some cases, when the electronic device is a display device with a large screen, such as a tablet computer or a smart TV, the notification messages may also be displayed in columns according to categories.

[0205] For example, FIG10 is a schematic diagram of another GUI provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG10 , the GUI may be a display interface 510 of a notification center of an electronic device 500 .

[0206] In some examples, the display interface 510 may display notification message display cards in a column format. For example, when there are two types of notification messages, content recommendation messages and membership service messages, the display cards included in the display partition containing the content recommendation messages may be displayed in one column, and the display cards included in the display partition containing the membership service messages may be displayed in another column.

[0207] The display partition where the content recommendation message is located may include display card 511, display card 512, display card 513, and display card 514. Each display card may include an icon and a content introduction of the App so that the user can easily understand its content.

[0208] The display section where the member service message is located may include a display card 515 and a display card 516. For example, the display card 515 may be a display card corresponding to a member renewal message, and the display card 516 may be a display card corresponding to a movie ticket message.

[0209] It can be understood that the above description uses the example of the display interface 510 including content recommendation messages and membership service messages. In other examples, the display interface 510 can also include other categories of notification messages, etc., or the display interface 510 can also be divided into three columns or more to display notification messages.

[0210] FIG11 is a schematic flow chart of determining a display partition for a notification message according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG11 , the method 600 may be applied to an electronic device, and the method 600 may include steps 601 to 604 .

[0211] 601, the electronic device receives a notification message A.

[0212] Exemplarily, the source of the notification message A may be an application or a meta-service, etc. For example, the electronic device receives the notification message A pushed by App1.

[0213] 602 , the electronic device determines whether the notification message A is tagged with a category.

[0214] After receiving the notification message A, the electronic device may check whether the notification message A is marked with a category.

[0215] It is understandable that when an application pushes a notification message to an electronic device, it can mark the notification message according to certain rules. For example, it can determine the category of the notification message based on the content of the pushed notification message.

[0216] When it is determined that the notification message A is not tagged with a category, step 602a may be executed.

[0217] In step 602a, the electronic device returns notification message A to the source of notification message A.

[0218] In other examples, when the electronic device returns the notification message A to the source of the notification message A, it may also instruct the source to mark the category of the notification message A.

[0219] It is understood that in other embodiments, when the electronic device determines that notification message A is not tagged with a category, the electronic device may tag the notification message A with a category based on the content of notification message A. For example, the electronic device may use semantic recognition technology, image recognition technology, etc. to determine the content of notification message A and determine the category of the notification message.

[0220] 603. When the electronic device determines that the notification message A is marked with a category, it determines whether the marked category is correct.

[0221] For example, the electronic device may obtain the text, image, and other contents in the notification message A to determine whether the category marked therein is correct.

[0222] When the electronic device determines that the marked category is incorrect, step 602a is executed.

[0223] 604 , the electronic device displays the notification message A in the corresponding display partition according to the category of the notification message A.

[0224] The electronic device may display notification messages of different categories in different display partitions.

[0225] In one example, when the electronic device determines that notification message A belongs to the first category, for example, the first category may be a live notification message, the electronic device may display the notification message A at the top of the display interface of the notification center so that the user can see the notification message A first when opening the notification center.

[0226] In another example, when the electronic device determines that notification message A belongs to the second category, for example, the second category may be a communication, social networking, or service reminder notification message, the electronic device may display notification message A in the middle of the display interface. If no message is displayed at the top of the notification center, notification message A may be displayed at the top of the notification center's display interface.

[0227] In another example, when the electronic device determines that notification message A belongs to the third category, for example, the third category may be a content information notification message, the electronic device may display notification message A at the bottom of the display interface. If no messages are displayed at the top or in the middle of the notification center, notification message A may be displayed at the top of the display interface of the notification center. If notification messages are displayed at the top of the notification center and no messages are displayed in the middle, notification message A may be displayed in the middle.

[0228] It should be understood that notification messages of different categories have different priorities. For example, the electronic device may pre-store the priority relationship of categories. The priority of the first category is higher than the priority of the second category, and the priority of the second category is higher than the priority of the third category. Each category of notification messages can be displayed in a display partition. When multiple notification messages exist in the same display partition, the multiple notification messages can be arranged in chronological order.

[0229] It should also be understood that for each notification message, the electronic device can use the above steps to make a judgment. For multiple notification messages sent by the same App, they may also belong to different categories. In this case, the electronic device can display them in different display partitions.

[0230] In this way, important notification messages can be displayed at the top, making it easier for users to view them and reducing the possibility of users missing important notifications.

[0231] In one embodiment of the present application, when an electronic device receives a notification message, it can first determine whether the notification message is tagged with a category; if the tagged category is determined, it can further determine whether the tagged category is correct; if the tagged category is correct, it can display the notification message A in a display partition based on the category of the notification message A. In this way, the electronic device can display notification messages of different categories in different display partitions, and important notification messages can be displayed at the top of the display interface of the notification center, thereby preventing users from missing important notification messages.

[0232] FIG12 is a schematic flow chart of determining a display partition for a notification message according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 700 may be applied in an electronic device, and the method 700 may include steps 701 to 704.

[0233] 701, the electronic device receives a notification message A.

[0234] 702 , the electronic device determines whether the notification message A indicates a category.

[0235] 702a, the electronic device returns notification message A to the source of notification message A.

[0236] 703 , when the electronic device determines that the notification message A is marked with a category, it determines whether the marked category is correct.

[0237] 704 , the electronic device displays the notification message A in the corresponding display partition according to the category.

[0238] It should be understood that steps 701-704 can refer to the relevant description of steps 601-604, and for the sake of brevity, they are not repeated here.

[0239] 705 , the electronic device determines whether there is a notification message B from the same source as the notification message A in the display partition A.

[0240] When the electronic device determines to display the notification message A in the display area A,

[0241] 705a: When it is determined that there is no notification message B from the same source as notification message A in display partition A, notification message A is displayed separately in display partition A.

[0242] For example, referring to (b) in Figure 9, the notification message A may be a notification message pushed by App2 at "07:51". When the electronic device determines that it belongs to the first category, it can be displayed in the display partition A. If there are no other notification messages from the same source as the notification message A in the display partition A, the notification message A will be displayed separately in the display partition A.

[0243] 706 , when it is determined that a notification message B having the same source as the notification message A exists in the display partition A, the notification message A and the notification message B are folded and displayed in the display partition A.

[0244] Here, the folded display of notification message A and notification message B can be understood as displaying notification message A and notification message B in a single display card. For example, referring to (b) in FIG3 , notification message A may be a notification message from App2. When notification message A needs to be displayed in a display partition for content information, and multiple notification messages from App2 also exist in the display partition, the electronic device will merge notification message A with the previous notification messages and display them in a folded display card.

[0245] It should be understood that for each notification message, the electronic device can use the above steps to make a judgment. For multiple notification messages sent by the same App, they may also belong to different categories. In this case, the electronic device can display them in different display partitions.

[0246] In one embodiment of the present application, when an electronic device displays different notification messages A in different display partitions according to categories, if there are other notification messages from the same source as the notification message A in the same display partition, the notification message A can be merged and folded for display; if there are no other notification messages from the same source as the notification message A in the same display partition, the notification message A can be displayed alone.

[0247] FIG13 is a schematic flow chart of a display method provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG13 , the method 800 can be applied to an electronic device, and the method 800 can include steps 810 to 830.

[0248] 810. The electronic device receives multiple notification messages of different categories.

[0249] The multiple notification messages of different categories may come from the same application or from different applications.

[0250] It is understandable that when an application pushes a notification message to an electronic device, it can classify the notification message by label. For details, please refer to the relevant description in the above text.

[0251] 820. In response to the operation of opening the notification center, the electronic device displays the first display interface of the notification center. The first display interface includes multiple display partitions. Each of the multiple display partitions includes multiple notification messages from different applications but belonging to the same category. The categories of the notification messages included in different display partitions are different.

[0252] It should be understood that the operation of opening the notification center can refer to the relevant description in the previous text.

[0253] Exemplarily, referring to FIG4 , the first display interface may be display interface 220, and the multiple display partitions may be display partitions corresponding to live notification messages (such as the display partition where display card 221 is located), display partitions corresponding to communication and social notification messages (such as the display partition where display card 222 is located), and display partitions corresponding to content information (such as the display partitions where display cards 224-227 are located).

[0254] It is understandable that the first display interface may also include other types of notification messages, such as service reminder notification messages, such as account balance change reminder messages, schedule reminder messages, etc.

[0255] In other examples, the notification message of the same application may be one or multiple messages, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0256] It should also be understood that the categories of the above notification messages are merely illustrative. In other examples, other categories may also be included.

[0257] 830 , in response to the operation of folding the target display partition among the multiple display partitions, the electronic device folds and displays the notification messages of the multiple different applications included in the target display partition.

[0258] For example, referring to (b) and (c) in FIG4 , the target display partition may be a display partition corresponding to content information, and the operation of folding the target display partition may be an operation of the user clicking the folding function button 2231, after which the electronic device may fold and display the target display partition.

[0259] In other examples, the operation of folding the target display partition may also be other operations, such as an operation of sliding upward in the target display partition.

[0260] In one embodiment of the present application, after an electronic device receives multiple notification messages of different categories, it can display the notification messages in different display partitions according to the categories of the notification messages. When it detects the user's operation of folding the target display partition, it can fold and display the notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition.

[0261] In this way, when there are many notification messages displayed in the target display partition, the user can easily fold the notification messages in batches to make the display interface of the notification center more concise.

[0262] In some embodiments, the electronic device folds notification messages of multiple different applications included in the target display partition into a folded card. The method 800 may further include:

[0263] In response to a sliding operation on the folded card, the electronic device displays a delete function button for deleting the folded card;

[0264] In response to the operation of clicking the delete function button, the electronic device deletes the folded card.
