Chat-Based Playback Device Recommendation Without App Switching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The process of presenting content shared in a chat message across devices is complex and inefficient, requiring multiple application switches and interface jumps.
Innovation Solution
A device recommendation method that suggests a suitable device for content playback directly from a chat interface, using prompt information to facilitate seamless content transfer.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the user opens content in a chat message by using the chat message as an entry, then the content can be accessed, but the user needs to continuously perform selection and the mobile phone needs to continuously switch applications and jump interfaces, making the process complex
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-establishing a mapping relationship between chat messages and suitable playback devices before the user needs to access content. When a chat message containing content is received, the system has already prepared the necessary device information and can directly initiate playback on the recommended device without requiring the user to perform multiple selections or undergo complex application switching.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the user wants to play content on another device, then content can be presented across devices, but the user needs to open projection option and select from device list, increasing the number of operations
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides self-service by automatically determining and recommending the most suitable playback device based on the content type and user profile, without requiring the user to manually search through or select from a list of available devices. The system handles the device selection process autonomously, presenting only the recommended device to the user for confirmation.
3Productivity
If the mobile phone displays found projection devices in a device list, then the user can select a projection device, but the process requires multiple steps including opening projection option and selecting from list
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary determination of the recommended playback device based on content characteristics and user preferences before the user initiates any operations. This pre-computed recommendation eliminates the need for real-time device discovery and selection processes, significantly reducing the time required to present content across devices.

AI summary
A first device displays a chat interface with a first contact, where the chat interface includes a first chat message; the first device displays first prompt information on the chat interface when the first chat message includes first content, where the first prompt information is used to recommend a second device to a user; the first device displays second prompt information on the chat interface in response to an operation of confirming the first prompt information by the user, where the second prompt information is used to prompt the user to open the first content in the second device; and in response to an operation of confirming the second prompt information by the user, the first device indicates the second device to open the first content.
