Multi-Device Upgrade Prompts for Interactive Version Compatibility
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing upgrade prompt methods for terminal devices do not account for multi-device interaction scenarios, affecting the ability to determine if a terminal device can perform an interactive operation with another device after an update, thereby impacting user experience.
Innovation Solution
An upgrade prompt method that determines a second terminal device capable of interactive operations based on attribute information of an upgrade version, generating prompt information to facilitate timely upgrades across multiple devices, ensuring seamless interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If upgrade prompt information records only updated content of a single terminal device, then the upgrade prompt system remains simple and independent, but the system cannot determine whether interactive operations with other terminal devices are supported after updates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the upgrade prompt systems of multiple terminal devices by having each device not only record its own upgrade information but also the upgrade information of other devices it interacts with. This combination allows the system to comprehensively determine interactive operation compatibility without requiring a complex centralized management system.
Solution Approach 2:
The upgrade prompt information is designed to serve multiple functions: it records local upgrade content, stores upgrade information of other devices, and enables compatibility determination for interactive operations. This multi-functionality resolves the contradiction by making the existing simple structure more capable without proportionally increasing complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If upgrade prompt information includes upgrade content of multiple terminal devices, then interactive operation compatibility can be determined, but the information structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The upgrade prompt information is segmented into distinct components: local upgrade content and upgrade information of other devices. This segmentation allows the system to handle multi-device interaction support by organizing complex information into manageable, structured segments that can be processed independently.
3Ease of operation
If existing independent upgrade prompt method is used, then each terminal device can be upgraded independently, but interactive operations between multiple devices are affected after updates
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback by having terminal devices share their upgrade information with each other. After a device is upgraded, its upgrade information is transmitted to interacting devices, which then use this feedback to determine whether they can maintain compatible interactive operations, thus preserving reliability while maintaining independent upgrade capability.

AI summary
Embodiments relate to an upgrade prompt method, a terminal device, and a computer-readable storage medium. In the method, in response to the first terminal device having an upgrade version, a second terminal device and a target version corresponding to the second terminal device may be determined based on attribute information of the upgrade version, and a current version corresponding to the second terminal device may be obtained. Remark information of the second terminal device may be generated based on the target version and the current version that correspond to the second terminal device, and upgrade prompt information of the first terminal device may be generated based on the attribute information of the upgrade version and the remark information of the second terminal device, to perform an upgrade prompt operation on the first terminal device.
