Touch-Press Menu Personalization Through Usage-Based Option Ordering
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices display predefined operation options in pop-up menus after a heavy press, which cannot be dynamically adjusted based on user preferences, leading to an inconvenient user experience.
Innovation Solution
The electronic device dynamically adjusts the menu options displayed in response to a heavy press based on user habits and usage patterns, allowing personalized customization of operation options through a learning phase that records user interactions and adjusts the menu accordingly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If predefined operation options are displayed in the pop-up menu, then the menu structure is simple and easy to implement, but the menu cannot be dynamically adjusted based on user preferences, reducing ease of operation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic menu system that automatically adjusts the display order of operation options based on user interaction history. The system transitions from a static predefined menu to a dynamic menu that reorders options according to frequency of use, recency of use, or user-defined preferences, thereby improving ease of operation without requiring complex manual configuration
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically learns and adapts to user behavior patterns without requiring explicit user input for menu configuration. By monitoring user interactions with various operation options and automatically reordering them based on usage patterns, the system provides self-service personalization that enhances ease of operation while avoiding the complexity of manual setup procedures
2Adaptability or versatility
If predefined operation options are used in the menu, then the system implementation is simple, but the menu lacks adaptability to individual user needs
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms that monitor user interactions with operation options and use this information to dynamically adjust menu configuration. The feedback loop continuously tracks usage patterns and automatically reorders options to match user preferences, providing adaptability while keeping the implementation relatively simple through automated learning rather than complex configuration systems
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of menu option ordering from a fixed predefined sequence to a dynamic sequence based on user behavior parameters such as frequency of use, recency of use, or user-defined importance ratings. This parameter change enables the menu to adapt to individual users while maintaining a relatively simple underlying system architecture

AI summary
This application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to an electronic device having a touch-sensitive surface and a processing method for the electronic device. When a heavy pressing operation on an application icon is detected on the touch-sensitive surface, a menu including m operation options is displayed on a display screen of the electronic device, so that a user quickly performs different operations on an application program. The m operation options are determined based on at least one of: a quantity of times that an operation option is tapped, a time at which an operation option is tapped, a location of the electronic device when an operation option is tapped, unread information in an application corresponding to the application icon, data obtained before the application is suspended, data obtained when the application runs in the background, and a communication object in the application, so as to improve user experience to a greater extent.
