Order Information Display in Mobile App Background
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing e-commerce mobile apps require users to manually navigate to a specific page to view their order records, which is inconvenient and inefficient, especially on small mobile device screens, limiting the amount of information displayed.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a method where order information is displayed in a background display area of the app's home page, allowing users to view order history without entering a specific order history page, with target images of purchased products displayed directly in the background, reducing the need for additional navigation and conserving computing resources.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If order information is displayed on a separate page requiring user navigation, then the information can be displayed in detail, but the user operation complexity increases and access convenience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the order information display function with the home page by embedding a background image area that directly shows order thumbnails. Users can view order information without navigating to a separate page, as the order data is integrated into the home page background, eliminating the need for additional navigation operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes the background image area of the home page as an additional display dimension. Instead of requiring users to navigate to a dedicated order history page, the order information is presented in the background layer of the current page, effectively using spatial layering to provide information without adding navigation steps.
2Area of stationary object
If traditional listing approach is used on mobile terminal, then all order details can be shown, but the screen space is insufficient and information visibility is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments order information into thumbnail previews displayed in the background image area and detailed information available on demand. Each order is represented by a condensed visual summary (thumbnail) that fits within the limited screen space, while still conveying essential order identification and status information.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates visual copies of order information in the form of thumbnails embedded in the background image. These thumbnails are condensed representations of full order details, allowing multiple orders to be displayed simultaneously in the limited screen space while maintaining visual recognizability and information accessibility.
3Loss of time
If users must click to view order details, then detailed information can be accessed, but the time required to obtain information increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by pre-loading and displaying order thumbnail information directly in the home page background. Essential order identification and status information is prepared and presented in advance, allowing users to immediately see their order history without needing to navigate or wait for data loading on a separate page.
Data Source
AI summary
Embodiments of the present application relate to a method and system for displaying images in a background display area of a target page. The method includes receiving a request to display a target page, wherein the target page includes a background display area and a foreground display area, determining a target image, wherein the target image includes image information associated with a product object in at least part of the order history records of the current user, and causing the target image to be displayed in the background display area.
