Solution Overview

Problem

Users face complexity in understanding information associated with shared screenshots, as they typically open a simple picture instead of an interface, requiring manual search within the corresponding application.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that detect a click operation on a shared picture pre-associated with an application identifier and parameter information, determining if the original source application is installed locally, and constructing a jump protocol to open the application or present a webpage/download interface accordingly.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a shared picture is opened as a simple picture, then the picture can be displayed universally, but the user cannot directly access the original source application or related information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepicture display compatibilityVSAvoidinformation access convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-associating jump protocols and parameter information with the shared picture before sharing. When the user clicks the picture, the pre-prepared jump protocol automatically executes to open the original source application with the correct interface parameters, eliminating the need for manual navigation and directly providing access to related information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Loss of information

If manual search is required in the corresponding application, then the user can find detailed information, but the operation process becomes complicated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidoperation process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a jump protocol as an intermediary between the shared picture and the original source application. This intermediary carries parameter information that directly identifies the relevant interface or content in the application, serving as a bridge that automatically guides the user to the specific information without requiring manual search through the application's interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Ease of operation

If the original source application is opened every time a shared picture is clicked, then direct access to related information is achieved, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation access speedVSAvoidsystem processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by pre-associating jump protocols with shared pictures during the sharing process. This preparation work is done once when the picture is shared, and the protocol is stored with the picture. When clicked, the pre-prepared protocol executes automatically, reducing the complexity of real-time processing while enabling direct access to the original application.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The shared picture becomes self-service by containing embedded jump protocol information that automatically executes when clicked. The picture itself carries the necessary information to open the original application with the correct parameters, without requiring external intervention or complex system processing to determine which application to open.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A method and an apparatus for presenting an interface are provided according to the embodiments of the present disclosure. The method includes performing a detecting for a click operation on a shared picture; determining, in response to detecting the click operation, whether an original source application of the picture indicated by an application identifier is already installed locally based on the application identifier; and in response to determining that the original source application is already installed locally, constructing a content of a jump protocol pre-associated with the picture based on the application identifier and parameter information pre-associated with the picture, and executing the constructed jump protocol to open the locally installed original source application and present an interface corresponding to the picture.
