Navigation Bar Creator Prioritization for Information Page Updates
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for providing video update reminders on platforms make it difficult for users to learn about updated content, particularly from creators they follow closely, as these updates are often overshadowed by a wide range of updates.
Innovation Solution
Display an image of a recommended creator in a preset area of the navigation bar and jump to a second page upon touch, positioning the creator's image at the top based on user information, with options for recorded or live streaming content types, and utilizing server messages for user lists.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If a wide range of video updates are displayed on the home page, then the quantity of updated content is improved, but the visibility of updates from closely followed creators deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the navigation bar into multiple functional areas: a first area for displaying images of followed creators and a second area for displaying video update counts. This segmentation allows the system to simultaneously present both the quantity of updates and the visibility of followed creators without one overwhelming the other.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by giving different visual priorities to different regions of the navigation bar. The first area (for followed creators) is positioned to receive greater visual attention, while the second area (for update counts) provides quantitative information without dominating the visual hierarchy. This ensures that updates from followed creators remain prominent while still displaying the overall quantity of updates.
2Loss of information
If detailed information about updated content is provided, then the completeness of information is improved, but the complexity of the interface deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts detailed content information from the main navigation area and places it in a dedicated notification panel that displays when users interact with the navigation bar. The navigation bar itself maintains a clean, simple appearance with only creator images and update counts, while comprehensive information about updated content (including content type, creator identity, and update details) is available on demand in the expanded notification panel.
3Device complexity
If traditional reminder methods (red dots or video counts) are used, then the simplicity of the interface is improved, but the ease of identifying updated content deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses color changes and visual differentiation in the navigation bar images to indicate the type of updated content. Different visual styles or color indicators are applied to images based on whether they represent recorded videos, live streaming rooms, or other content types. This allows users to quickly identify updated content at a glance without adding complex interface elements, maintaining simplicity while improving ease of identification.
Data Source
AI summary
The present application provides techniques for displaying information pages. The techniques comprise in response to an operation of starting a client application by a user, displaying a first page comprising a navigation bar and displaying an image of a recommended creator in a preset area of the navigation bar; and in response to detecting a touch operation on the image of the recommended creator, jumping from the first page to a second page and displaying the image of the recommended creator at a top position in a predetermined area of the second page, wherein the predetermined area is configured to display images of a plurality of recommended creators based on information of the user.
