RCS Messaging Shortcut Generation via Session Snapshot
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Rich Communication Services (RCS) messaging sessions on user devices can be inefficient due to the need for multiple actions to access and manage sessions, lack of organization, and high storage resource usage, making it difficult to sort, filter, and resume sessions.
Innovation Solution
A user device generates a snapshot of an RCS messaging session, transmits it to an application server, and creates a shortcut linked to the snapshot, allowing for easy access and backup, reducing storage needs and simplifying the user interface by enabling single-tap resumption of sessions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If multiple actions are required to access and manage RCS messaging sessions, then comprehensive session management functionality is maintained, but user convenience and ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates shortcuts in advance that represent RCS messaging sessions, allowing users to access sessions directly without navigating through multiple menus or performing multiple actions. The shortcut is prepared beforehand with all necessary session information, enabling immediate access upon single interaction.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts essential session information and creates a simplified shortcut representation that can be displayed on the user interface. This shortcut contains only the necessary elements for quick access, separating the complex session management functionality from the simple user interaction point.
2Quantity of substance
If RCS messaging sessions are stored locally on the user device, then session accessibility is improved, but storage resource consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates a simplified copy or representation of the RCS messaging session in the form of a shortcut, rather than storing the complete session data. This shortcut serves as a reference that links to the actual session or contains only essential information, significantly reducing storage requirements while maintaining session accessibility.
3Ease of operation
If the user interface displays all RCS messaging sessions, then session organization and sorting capabilities are maintained, but interface complexity and difficulty of detecting and measuring increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the session management functionality by creating separate shortcut elements that can be independently displayed and organized. Each shortcut represents a specific session and can be sorted or filtered based on user needs without requiring complex interface elements, as the segmentation is achieved at the data representation level rather than the interface level.
Data Source
AI summary
A user device may receive an instruction to generate a shortcut associated with a rich communication services (RCS) messaging session that is associated with a RCS application. The user device may generate, based on receiving the instruction, a snapshot of the RCS messaging session, and may transmit, based on generating the snapshot of the RCS messaging session, the snapshot of the RCS messaging session to an application server. The user device may generate, based on transmitting the snapshot of the RCS messaging session to the application server, the shortcut associated with the RCS messaging session, where the shortcut associated with the RCS messaging session is linked to the snapshot of the RCS messaging session. The user device may display, on a display of the device, the shortcut associated with the RCS messaging session.
