[0034] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Example Interaction

[0036] The following will describe a process of example interface interaction according to embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] FIGS. 2A-2F illustrate example interfaces 200A-200F according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The interfaces 200A-200F can be provided by the electronic device 110 shown in FIG. 1.

[0038] FIG. 2A illustrates an example live interface 200A according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the live interface 200A can include a live view 210 for displaying a live view. In some embodiments, such a live interface 200A can be associated with a live room. In some scenarios, a live room represents a virtual live scene created in a live platform, which can also be referred to as a live session, for example.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 2A, the live interface 200A can also present a set of interface elements superimposed in the live view 210, such a set of interface elements can be interface elements (e.g., interface element 214 and interface element 216) associated with the current live. In some embodiments, the interface element 214 and the interface element 216 can include a plurality of interface elements, such as comment messages associated with the current live, watching users, a current live ranking, closing the live, sharing the live, and a mic, etc. For ease of description, the present disclosure generalizes a plurality of interface elements as the interface element 214 and the interface element 216.

[0040] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can present corresponding display content based on user operations in the live interface 200A. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can stop displaying at least one interface element in the set of interface elements in response to receiving a first operation in the live interface 200A. In some embodiments, such a first operation can include a first sliding operation (e.g., a downward sliding operation) of the user in the first direction in the live interface 200A and a first selection operation of the user on the first control 212 in the live interface 200A. As an example, the electronic device 110 can stop displaying at least one interface element in the set of interface elements based on the sliding operation of the user in the live interface 200A or the triggering operation on the first control 212, for example, stop displaying the interface element 214.

[0041] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also present a target dynamic effect associated with the live interface 200A in response to receiving the first operation. In some embodiments, such a target dynamic effect can be, for example, dynamically adjusting the transparency of at least one interface element in the set of interface elements, for example, reducing the transparency of a certain interface element, so as to improve the visual experience of the user interacting with the live interface.

[0042] As an example, in response to receiving the first operation in the live streaming interface 200A, the electronic device 110 can present a target animation effect of the live streaming interface 200A, and finally present the live streaming interface 200B as shown in FIG. 2B. In the live streaming interface 200B, the electronic device 110 can present the live streaming interface 200B in a clear screen state. In the live streaming interface 200B, the electronic device 110 can present the target region (or the second region) 220 and the first region 222. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can present the reduced live streaming picture 210 in the first region 222.

[0043] Further, the electronic device 110 can display target information associated with a group of live streaming parties in the target region 220.

[0044] In some embodiments, such a group of live streaming parties has a preset association relationship with the current user. In some embodiments, such a group of live streaming parties may, for example, be a group of live streaming parties followed by the current user.

[0045] In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first operation, the electronic device 110 can reduce the display size of the live streaming picture 210 to present the live streaming interface 200B as shown in FIG. 2B.

[0046] In addition, in some embodiments, in response to the user entering the live streaming interface 200A for the first time, the electronic device 110 can automatically present the target region 220 as shown in FIG. 2B, and if the user does not respond, the electronic device 110 can stop presenting the target region 220 within a preset time (for example, 5 seconds) to present the live streaming interface 200A.

[0047] In some embodiments, in response to the target region 220 being displayed, the electronic device 110 can disable at least one operation on the live streaming picture. As an example, in the case that the target region 220 is displayed, the left and right swipe operations on the first region 222 can be disabled. That is, the electronic device 110 may, for example, not respond to the left swipe operation or the right swipe operation on the first region 222. Instead, in the case that the target region 220 is displayed, the left swipe operation or the right swipe operation on the first region 222 may, for example, be configured with corresponding trigger logic, for example, the left swipe operation or the right swipe operation can be used to trigger switching to display other tab pages of the application 120 or trigger hiding the interactive controls in the live streaming interface, etc.

[0048] Further, the electronic device 110, in response to receiving a second operation in the live interface 200B, can stop displaying the target region 220. In some embodiments, such a second operation can include, but is not limited to, a second swipe operation of the user in a second direction in the live interface 200B and a second selection operation of the user on a second control in the live interface 200B. As an example, the electronic device 110, in response to receiving an up swipe operation in the live interface 200B or a selection of the preset control 224 in the live interface 200B by the user, can stop displaying the information display region 210 and can present the live interface 200A as shown in FIG. 2A.

[0049] In some embodiments, the live interface 200B can further include a preset control 226, and such a preset control 226 can be used to close the current live broadcast.

[0050] For ease of understanding, the target region 220 is further described below.

[0051] As mentioned above, the target region 220 can present target information, and further, such target information can indicate whether a group of live broadcasters associated with the current user is in a live state. In some embodiments, the group of live broadcasters can include the current live broadcaster. In other embodiments, the electronic device 110 can deduplicate the current live broadcaster so that the group of live broadcasters does not include the current live broadcaster.

[0052] Further, the above-mentioned target region 220 can display a first part of the target information. Further, the electronic device 110, in response to a third operation on the information display region, can update the target region 220 to display a second part of the target information. As an example, the electronic device 110 can update the target region 220 based on a swipe operation of the user in the target region 220 to view the updated live broadcasters in the live state or in the non-live state. For ease of description, the first part of the target information is described below as an example.

[0053] In some embodiments, such target information can include a group of identifiers corresponding to a group of live broadcasters (e.g., user A, user B, user C, and user D), and the display style of the group of identifiers can be determined based on live state information of the group of live broadcasters. In some embodiments, such live state information may, for example, include being in a live state and not being in a live state.

[0054] Further, in some embodiments, the electronic device 110, in response to a first live broadcaster (e.g., user A) in the group of live broadcasters being in a live state, can present a first style of reminder element in the target region 220 to indicate that the first live broadcaster is in a live state.

[0055] As shown in FIG. 2B, in response to a first live streaming party (e.g., user A) in the set of live streaming parties being in a live streaming state, the electronic device 110 can present a first identifier 223 of the first live streaming party.

[0056] In some embodiments, the first identifier 223 can be, for example, an image identifier (e.g., an avatar) and a text identifier (e.g., a username) of the first live streaming party, and the like. In addition, such a first identifier 223 can not only be a reminder element presented at the avatar or the username, but also any different form of presentation from other live streaming rooms that are not in a live streaming state.

[0057] Further, in response to a selection of the first identifier by the user, the electronic device 110 can present a live streaming interface of the first live streaming party, which can be, for example, the live streaming interface 200A shown in FIG. 2A.

[0058] In some embodiments, in response to a second live streaming party in the set of live streaming parties being in a non-live streaming state, the electronic device 110 can present a second identifier of the second live streaming party in a second style in the target area 220. In some embodiments, such a second identifier can indicate description information associated with the second live streaming party to indicate a live streaming plan of the second live streaming party. As an example, such description information can be live streaming appointment information of the second live streaming party, such as live streaming time, live streaming name, and live streaming introduction, and the like. Taking FIG. 2C as an example, the electronic device 110 can present a second element 230 in the target area 220, which can be, for example, a card of live streaming appointment information associated with the second live streaming party.

[0059] Further, in response to a selection of the second identifier by the user, the electronic device 110 can present a reservation portal for reserving a live streaming interaction of the second live streaming party. As an example, in response to a triggering operation of the second identifier and / or a preset control 235 by the user, the electronic device 110 can present an interface 200D as shown in FIG. 2D. In the interface 200D, the electronic device 110 can present a detail page 240 of the live streaming reservation. It should be understood that the detail page 240 can be, for example, an independent interface, an integrated display area, a floating window, or any appropriate form.

[0060] In some embodiments, such a detail page 240 can include, for example, a live streaming name associated with the second live streaming party, identifier information of the second live streaming party, live streaming time, and live streaming introduction, and the like. In addition, the detail page 240 can also include a preset control 245, and further, in response to a triggering operation of the preset control 245 by the user, the electronic device 110 can reserve a live streaming of the current second live streaming party.

[0061] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can display the identification 250 of the second live broadcast party in the un-on-air state in other styles, as shown in FIG. 2E. As an example, but the display style of the first live broadcast party should be different from that of the second live broadcast party. In some embodiments, such a first live broadcast party or a second live broadcast party can have multiple.

[0062] In this way, the user can present the live state information of a group of live broadcast parties in the target area 220 in the live interface, so as to facilitate the user to intuitively understand the on-air state of each live broadcast party in the group of live broadcast parties.

[0063] In some embodiments, the group of live broadcast parties presented in the target area 220 described above can be a first group of live broadcast parties in a first association relationship with the current user, for example, anchors followed by the user.

[0064] Further, taking FIG. 2B and FIG. 2F as examples, the electronic device 110 can update the target area 220 and increase the size of the target area 220 to present the live interface 200F as shown in FIG. 2F in response to the fourth operation (for example, a downward sliding operation) of the user on the target area 220 in the live interface 200B.

[0065] In the live interface 200F, the electronic device 110 can display target information and additional information in the updated target area 220, and such additional information can be a second group of live broadcast parties in a second association relationship with the current user, for example, anchors recommended by the platform.

[0066] As an example, the electronic device 110 can further present different types of live broadcasts 260 recommended by the platform in the updated target area 220. Such different types of live broadcasts 260 may, for example, be entertainment live broadcasts, shopping live broadcasts, food live broadcasts, and sports live broadcasts, etc.

[0067] Further, the electronic device 110 can provide a group of live broadcast parties 262 of a corresponding target live broadcast type in response to the selection of a target live broadcast type (for example, type one) in the different types of live broadcasts 260 by the user. The electronic device 110 can present a corresponding live interface in response to the selection of a target live broadcast party (for example, user I) in the group of live broadcast parties. In some embodiments, such a target live broadcast party can present its corresponding identification information and other content in the form of a card, etc.

[0068] FIGS. 3A-3B show example interfaces 300A-300B according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The interfaces 300A-300B can be provided by the electronic device 110 shown in FIG. 1.

[0069] As shown in FIG. 3A, the electronic device 110 can present a live streaming interface 300A in which a set of interface elements and a preset control 310 can be presented. In some embodiments, the preset control 310 can present an identification of one or more live streaming parties in a live streaming state among live streaming parties that the current user is following, for example, an avatar.

[0070] Further, the electronic device 110 can present a live streaming interface 300B as shown in FIG. 3B based on a first operation of the user, for example, a selection of the preset control 310 by the user. In the live streaming interface 300B, the electronic device 110 can present a live streaming screen in a normal size.

[0071] Further, the electronic device 110 can stop displaying at least one interface element in the set of interface elements in the live streaming interface 300B and display target information associated with a set of live streaming parties in a target area 320 in the live streaming interface 300B, for example, an identification of a host that the current user is following and / or live streaming state information.

[0072] As shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, the electronic device 110 can stop presenting one or more interface elements associated with the third area in the live streaming interface 300A and can accordingly display target information in the target area 320 in the live streaming interface 300B. As an example, such a target area 320 can cover at least part of the third area that is stopped from being displayed. For example, the original interface element corresponding to the target area 320 is stopped from being presented in the interface 300B.

[0073] It should be understood that the specific interaction process of the target area 320 can be based on the description above regarding the target area 220, which will not be repeated here.

[0074] In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can support the user to expand the information display area in the live streaming interface, thereby helping the user to more efficiently display the live streaming state information of a set of live streaming parties associated with the current user.
