Registered Application List Display for Cross-Service Sign-Up
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to support user registration for new applications by leveraging user-registered accounts, leading to increased registration steps and potential abandonment during the process.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that obtains and displays a list of user-registered applications to facilitate registration of new applications by supporting cooperation between services, reducing the number of registration steps.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If user registration is conducted for each service separately, then service security and account management are maintained, but the number of registration steps increases and user abandonment rate increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal account system where a single user account registered for one service can be used across multiple cooperative services. The account management unit stores user account information that can be shared across different applications, allowing one account to serve multiple functions and eliminating the need for separate registrations while maintaining security through centralized account management.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the registration processes of multiple services into a single unified registration flow. When a user registers for one service, the account information is automatically registered for cooperative services as well, combining what would otherwise be separate registration steps into one action, thereby reducing user abandonment while maintaining service security.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple separate registrations are required, then each service can manage its own accounts independently, but user time and effort are increased
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary account registration actions automatically. When a user registers for one service, the account management unit proactively registers the same account for cooperative services in advance, so that when the user later accesses those services, the registration is already complete, eliminating the need for repeated registration steps and reducing time loss.
3Adaptability or versatility
If services require separate account registrations, then service independence is maintained, but user convenience and registration completion rate decrease
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an account management unit as an intermediary between multiple services and users. This intermediary component handles account registration, storage, and sharing across services, allowing services to maintain their independence while providing users with a unified, convenient registration experience through centralized account management.
