Detailed ways

In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the specific embodiments of the present invention and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The breathing light means that the light is gradually changed from bright to dark under the control of the microcomputer, and it feels as if a person is breathing. Breathing lights are generally widely used in terminal devices such as mobile phones, and have become one of the selling points of new mobile phones of major brands to notify users.

However, with the improvement of users' requirements for the appearance of mobile phones, in order to ensure the seamless integration of the screen display, many devices need to be hidden or directly removed, and the breathing light as a reminder function is gradually removed. The problem caused by this is that since the mobile phone does not have the message prompt function brought by the breathing light, when the screen of the mobile phone is off, the user cannot know whether the current mobile phone has unread messages, and the user cannot Know whether the charging has ended (or whether the charging is full), etc. Therefore, in many scenarios, the user cannot immediately know the current charging status of the mobile phone or read the unread message (because the user does not know that there is a incoming calls, etc.).

To solve the above technical problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a prompting method, as shown in FIG. 1 , the method is applied to a terminal device, and the method includes:

Step 102. Obtain the charging state of the terminal device when the terminal device establishes a charging connection with the charger.

Step 104. Display an identifier corresponding to the charging state in the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device.

Because the prompting method of the embodiment of the present invention obtains the charging state of the terminal device when the terminal device establishes a charging connection with the charger, so as to display an identifier corresponding to the charging state in the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device. In this way, the method of the embodiment of the present invention only needs to obtain the charging state of the terminal device when the terminal device and the charging device establish a charging connection, and then the corresponding logo can be displayed in the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device. At this time, even if the screen When the screen is off, the user can also observe the identification of the fingerprint image display area on the screen, and obtain the charging status of the terminal device in time, which can solve the problem of poor user experience caused by prompting by the breathing light in the prior art.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the identification corresponding to the charging state is displayed in the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device, which may include:

If the terminal device is not fully charged, the first image is displayed in the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device. If the terminal device is in a fully charged state, a second image is displayed in the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device.

It should be understood that different identifications may be displayed in the fingerprint icon display area on the screen of the terminal device according to the charging amount of the terminal device in the charging state. For example, when the terminal device is not fully charged, the percentage of charging capacity (the first icon) can be displayed in the display area of the fingerprint icon. After seeing the percentage of charging capacity in the display area of the fingerprint icon, the user can directly understand the current terminal device and the user can estimate how long it will take to complete the charging according to the current charging progress.

When the terminal device is fully charged, a cool animation icon (second icon) can be displayed in the fingerprint icon display area to attract the user's attention, so that the user can be reminded that the charging is full without the user's knowledge. . For example, if the user is charging the terminal device at the desk, and the user is reading a book at the desk or at the desk, when the charging is completed, a cool animation icon will be displayed in the fingerprint icon display area, which can attract the user's attention. The user is promptly reminded to terminate the charging connection between the terminal device and the charger. Therefore, the battery of the terminal device can be prevented from being charged for a long time and the life of the battery is affected.

In the foregoing embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2 , the method of the embodiment of the present invention may further include:

Step 202. Acquire the message of the notification bar of the terminal device, wherein the terminal device is in a screen-off state. Generally, when a new message comes and the user does not open or process the message in time, the message will be automatically stored in the notification bar of the terminal device. At this time, when the screen is off, in order to remind the user that there are unread messages, the premise is to determine whether there are unread messages in the notification bar. The message in the notification bar determines whether there are unread messages.

Step 204. If there is an unread message in the notification bar, light up the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device in a target manner.

When the message in the notification bar is obtained, it can be determined whether there is an unread message in the notification bar. If there is an unread message in the notification bar, at this time, the fingerprint icon reminder function of the terminal device can be activated to light up in a target manner. The fingerprint icon of the terminal device shows the area terminal device. Because the method according to the embodiment of the present invention obtains the message in the notification bar of the terminal device when the screen of the terminal device is off, and activates the fingerprint icon reminder function when there is an unread message in the notification bar, so as to click in the target mode. The fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device is illuminated to remind the user that there are unread messages in the current terminal device. In this way, the method of the embodiment of the present invention only needs to activate the fingerprint icon function when there is an unread message in the notification bar to light up the area corresponding to the fingerprint icon, which can play a role of reminding the user. Therefore, the method of the embodiment of the present invention can solve the problem in the prior art that the user cannot know whether the current terminal device has unread messages in the screen state by removing the breathing light and discarding the message prompt function.

In the above-mentioned further embodiment, acquiring the message of the notification bar of the terminal device may include: acquiring the message of the notification bar of the terminal device when the terminal device is switched from the screen-on state to the screen-off state.

It should be understood that when a message needs to be prompted to the user, generally when the screen is off, it can be understood that when a message is received in the notification bar, the screen may be on, or when a message is received The off-screen state is switched to the on-screen state. After a period of time, the screen will switch from the on-screen state to the off-screen state, or when a message arrives, the user cannot be due to other reasons (doesn't know that the message is coming or has other emergencies). handle the message, etc.) to manually turn off the screen. At this time (that is, when the terminal device is switched from the screen-on state to the screen-off state), the message in the notification bar can be obtained, and when there are unread messages in the notification bar, the fingerprint icon reminder function is activated to light up the terminal device's Fingerprint icon display area to alert the user that there are unread messages that have not been processed.

In the above-mentioned further embodiment, acquiring the message of the notification bar of the terminal device may include: when the notification bar of the terminal device receives a new message, acquiring the message of the notification bar of the terminal device.

It can be understood that when the terminal device receives some messages, the screen is always in the off-screen state. At this time, as long as a new message is received in the notification bar of the terminal device, the message in the notification bar can be obtained. Generally, it is just received. When a new message is not processed in time by the user, the new message is defaulted to be an unread message. At this time, the fingerprint icon reminder function can be activated to light up the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device in a targeted manner, prompting the user that there are unread messages. Not processed.

As shown in Figure 3, if there is an unread message in the notification bar, lighting up the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device in a targeted manner may include:

Step 302. Obtain the application corresponding to the unread message.

Step 304. Based on the application, determine a lighting mode that matches the application.

Step 306. Light up the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device based on the matching lighting mode.

Generally, the existing reminding method of the breathing light is that when there is an unread message, the breathing light starts to work, and reminds the user and the current terminal device that there is an unread message in a flickering manner. However, this reminder method is for any unread message, regardless of whether the type of the message is the same, that is, whether it is a missed call, an unread SMS or WeChat, or a message intercepted by the system, etc. Prompt method The user does not know or roughly understand the kind of unread message. However, in the embodiment of the present invention, the lighting mode (or the reminder mode corresponding to the type of the message) can be determined according to the application program corresponding to the message in the notification bar, so that according to different reminder modes Different reminders are formed for the user, so that when the user sees the corresponding reminder mode, the user can roughly understand or clearly know which type of message the unread message belongs to, thereby further improving the user's use experience.

Wherein, the lighting mode can be various, and it can include at least one of the following:

Periodically light up the area corresponding to the preset fingerprint icon; light up the fingerprint icon display area for a long time; highlight the fingerprint icon display area, etc.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, it is also possible to determine a lit icon style matching the application program according to the application program corresponding to the acquired unread message, and to light up the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device based on the matched lit icon style, The user is prompted with different kinds of unread messages in the style of icons that are illuminated.

For example, when the unread message is a missed call, it is determined that the lit icon style matching the application is the icon style of the missed call. At this time, the missed call can be lit in the fingerprint icon display area. The icon style, so that when the user sees the icon of the missed call on the screen, he can know that there is a call that the user did not answer in the terminal device.

For another example, when the unread message is an unread short message, it is determined that the lit icon style matching the application is the icon style of the unread short message. At this time, the unread short message can be lit in the fingerprint icon display area. The icon style of the message, so that when the user sees the icon of the unread short message on the screen, he can know that there is a short message that the user has not viewed, etc. in the terminal device. There are other types of such messages, and it can be determined that the lit icon style that matches the application is the fingerprint icon corresponding to the unread message, so that the user can distinguish various types of icons according to the different icon styles. type of messages, which can further improve the user experience.

In order to avoid frequent reminders of some unimportant messages, the types of messages can be classified to distinguish which types of messages do not need to remind users, so as to avoid the frequent occurrence of some unimportant messages and frequent reminders to users, which affects the user's experience. occur. That is, the database of the terminal device is preset with a fingerprint icon corresponding to the application program of the terminal device. As shown in FIG. 4 , before lighting the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device in a target manner, it may include:

Step 402. Obtain the application corresponding to the unread message.

Step 404. Based on the matching relationship between the application program corresponding to the unread message and the application program in the database, determine whether to light up the display area of the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device.

Specifically, determining whether to light up the display area of the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device includes:

If there is an application program corresponding to the unread message in the database, the display area of the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device is determined. If there is no application program corresponding to the unread message in the database, it is determined that the display area of the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device is unlit.

It should be understood that a whitelist can be set in the terminal device to set which app messages in the whitelist can be reminded by the fingerprint icon under the screen off, or set which contacts have missed calls or unread messages and other messages that need to be reminded. , in this way, you only need to remind the message types existing in the database, instead of all unread messages, you can avoid unnecessary message reminders, and at the same time, you can also enable message reminders for all unread messages In the case of the function, the problem of excessive power consumption of the terminal device is caused, so that the user experience can be further improved.

In any of the above embodiments, the prompting method may further include:

If there are multiple unread messages, the fingerprint icons corresponding to the messages are respectively lit according to the priority level of the messages. For example, the corresponding messages are illuminated in sequence according to the priority level of the time of the message, the importance of the message, and the classification of the contact corresponding to the message. That is, when there are unread messages of multiple applications that need to be reminded, the messages of the application with the highest priority can be displayed according to the priority, so as to facilitate the user to view the messages that he wants to view the most, so as to further improve the user experience. Among them, in order to facilitate the user to quickly check which new messages of applications are in the reminder, the messages of which applications may be checked by means of swiping the fingerprint icon up.

Any of the above embodiments is generally a message reminder scheme based on a fingerprint icon on the screen. If a quick view function of the reminder message can be added together, it can be more convenient for the user to quickly view the message. Therefore, in any of the above embodiments, the prompting method may further include:

As shown in Figure 5, if there is an unread message in the notification bar, after lighting the fingerprint icon display area of the terminal device in a targeted manner, the terminal device terminal device includes:

Step 502. Receive a target input in the fingerprint icon display area.
