Cross-App Icon Layout Using Operation History Feedback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing applications fail to suitably display icons based on user operation history, leading to inefficient utilization of frequently and infrequently used services.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system that acquires and utilizes history data from multiple apps to generate display formats optimizing the arrangement of icons, prioritizing frequently used services for easier access.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If icons are displayed in a fixed format across all apps, then the display format is simple and consistent, but frequently used services cannot be prioritized for easier access
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic icon display formats that automatically adjust based on user operation history. The display format is no longer static but changes dynamically to prioritize frequently used services, resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and device complexity by allowing the system to adapt automatically without user intervention
Solution Approach 2:
The system collects user operation history as feedback and uses it to automatically adjust icon display formats. This feedback mechanism enables the system to learn from user behavior and optimize the display format accordingly, improving ease of access while managing complexity through automated adaptation rather than manual configuration
2Ease of operation
If icon display formats are customized for each app based on user history, then ease of access to frequently used services is improved, but the complexity of managing multiple display formats increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal icon display management system that can be applied across multiple apps simultaneously. The same mechanism that generates optimized display formats based on user history works universally across different apps, reducing the complexity of managing individual customizations for each app while maintaining the benefits of customized icon arrangements
Solution Approach 2:
The system merges the icon display format management across multiple apps into a unified system. By combining the analysis of user operation history from all apps and generating coordinated display formats, the system reduces the complexity of managing separate customizations while achieving comprehensive optimization of service accessibility across the entire app ecosystem

AI summary
An information processing system includes one or more memories configured to store program code and one or more processors. The program code includes history acquisition code configured to cause at least one of the one or more processors to acquire at least one of first and second history data respectively indicating operation histories of first and second apps and format code configured to cause at least one of the one or more processors to generate first and second format data respectively indicating display formats of a group of icons in first and second display screens based on at least one of the first and second history data. Display data displaying the group of icons includes first and second display data used to respectively display the group of icons on the first and second display screens in the display formats that are based on the first and second format data.
