Group Chat Mention Interface for Batch Member Reminders
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing methods for reminding multiple group members to view messages in a group chat require cumbersome operations, such as repeatedly finding and selecting individual group member profiles, which is inefficient and time-consuming.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that allows multiple selection of group member identifiers, displaying their names in a preset combination form, and sending a message with a preset symbol to remind multiple group members, reducing the need for repeated profile selection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the user repeatedly finds and selects individual group member profiles to remind them to view messages, then the reminder function can be achieved for each member, but the operation becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple individual member selection operations into a single batch selection operation. By selecting multiple group members simultaneously through a group selection interface, the system combines what would otherwise require multiple separate profile-finding and selection steps into one unified action, thereby simplifying the operation while maintaining the reminder function effectiveness
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-displaying a list of selectable group members in the chat interface before the user needs to remind them. This allows users to quickly identify and select multiple members without having to search for individual profiles each time, performing the member identification step in advance and reducing the overall operation complexity
2Reliability
If the user selects multiple group members individually through profile photos, then each member can be reminded, but the process becomes inefficient and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple individual message sending operations into a single batch sending operation. By allowing users to select multiple group members simultaneously and send one message that reaches all selected members at once, the system merges what would otherwise require multiple separate sending actions, thereby maintaining complete message delivery while significantly improving sending efficiency
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements multi-functionality by creating a chat input interface that can simultaneously address multiple group members with a single message. The system allows the same message content to be universally sent to multiple selected members at once, rather than requiring separate individual messaging operations, thus improving productivity while ensuring complete delivery

AI summary
This application discloses a sending method and apparatus, and an electronic device. The method includes: receiving a first input for a communication interface of a target group; displaying M identifiers in response to the first input, where each identifier is used to indicate one group member in the target group, and the M identifiers support to be multiple selected; receiving a second input for N identifiers among the M identifiers; displaying a preset symbol and N names in a preset combination form in an input box in response to the second input, where the N names are names of N group members indicated by the N identifiers; and sending a communication message in the target group, where the communication message includes the preset symbol and the N names in the preset combination form, where the preset symbol and the N names in the preset combination form are used to remind the N group members to view the communication message, and both M and N are integers greater than or equal to 2.
