The embodiments described below by referring to the figures are exemplary only for explaining the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

In order to achieve the purpose of the present invention, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a method based on social network communication, including the following steps:

The phone book obtains the update information of the contacts in the server of the social service;

The phonebook prompts the update information on the contacts corresponding to the phonebook.

As shown in Figure 1, it is a flowchart of a method based on social network communication in an embodiment of the present invention, including the following steps:

S110: The phonebook acquires the update information of the contacts in the server of the social service.

In order to solve the problem of separation of SNS client and phone book, the present invention proposes a phone book that can conveniently obtain SNS service information, and can obtain update information of several SNS services through the phone book to realize unified management of multiple accounts or services.

As an embodiment of the present invention, the phonebook proposed by the present invention can directly obtain the update information of the contacts in the server of the social service. For example, the SNS service information is sent to the phonebook through push (Push), and the phonebook passively receives update information; or, the phonebook actively inquires to obtain update information.

Further, as an embodiment of the present invention, the phonebook proposed by the present invention is an SNS function phonebook with an open interface, and the phonebook does not need to be bound to a service provider, but provides an open interface to the service provider. There is a new service provider, as long as the open interface of the phone book can be accessed, the phone book can integrate the new SNS service without updating the software.

In step S110, the user can also access the server of the social service through the phonebook, for example: the user selects the social service to be accessed in the phonebook, and enters the account number and password for accessing the social service. As shown in FIG. 2 , a schematic diagram of a screen for selecting an authorization button for a user, and as shown in FIG. 3 , a schematic diagram of a screen display for a user to authorize. Thereafter, the user can communicate with the server by inputting the account number and password for accessing the social service.

For example, the phone book provides authorization services, lists all SNS communication service description documents in the mobile phone, explains the content of the service, operation steps, risks, etc., and allows the user to confirm whether to authorize the service. The user can freely choose one or more services. authorize, or do not authorize at all. Authorized services can communicate with SNS services through the phonebook, and services without authorization cannot communicate through the phonebook.

As an embodiment of the present invention, the user communicates with the terminal software of the social service through the standard interface of the phone book, and accesses the server via the terminal software.

Usually, various social networking services have their own terminal software. Therefore, in addition to directly communicating with the server through the phonebook, the present invention can also access the server via the terminal software installed locally.

As an embodiment of the present invention, the phone book provides an open interface, and provides an API function for communicating with the SNS service.

Based on the above embodiments, the user can also update the personal information on the server through the phonebook, and/or obtain updated information of contacts.

For example, the user can enter the latest status through the phone book, or upload multimedia files to the SNS server.

The authorized SNS service can communicate with the phone book through the interface provided by the phone book. When the status of the local user changes, the communication service will be notified through the API function, and the communication service will upload it to the server and send it to the friend account; The server obtains the latest status of the friend, and sends it to the terminal software of the social service of the local user. The terminal software notifies the phonebook that there is an update through the API function, and transmits the updated content to the phonebook.

Thereafter, the phonebook stores the update information in a corresponding storage area. The communication service can store the communication data in the storage unit through the API function, and the phone book opens up a new storage unit for each authorized service, and there is no restriction on the storage format, and the service can customize the storage format by itself. The storage unit stores the updated state of the local user in the storage area of each account, and stores the friend update obtained from the terminal software in the corresponding storage area.

S120: The phone book prompts the update information on the contact person corresponding to the phone book.

Specifically, including:

According to the contact person corresponding to the update information, the phonebook inquires whether the contact person is an existing contact person in the local address book unit;

When the contact corresponding to the updated information is a new contact, the phonebook prompts the user whether to add the contact to the address book unit.

When the contact corresponding to the update information already exists in the contacts in the phone book, the phone book will prompt the update information on the corresponding contact.

After the user finishes accessing the updated information, the prompt on the corresponding contact person disappears, or a certain form is used to indicate that the user has accessed the updated information.

As shown in FIG. 4 , it is a schematic diagram of updating message display.

In order to illustrate the present invention in more detail, adopt concrete example to illustrate as follows:

For example, Zhang San has a mobile phone that can be connected to the Internet. Using the phonebook function provided by the present invention, the operation steps are as follows:

The user downloads the service software of the SNS service mobile phone, opens the phone book, selects authorization, lists the SNS service list in the mobile phone, selects the required SNS service, and authorizes;

After the authorization is completed, the user's friends in the service are synchronized to the phone book and stored in the phone book storage unit;

Add Li Si as Zhang San's friend, and add a sign to the contact named Li Si in Zhang San's phone book at this time, indicating that Li Si has also registered on the SNS server;

At this time, Li Si updated his status as "I invite you to dinner tonight!", and the server sent this message to all of Li Si's friends, including Zhang San. The SNS service in Zhang San's mobile phone obtained this status , and store it in the storage unit through the open interface, and display its content in the phone book; in this way, Li Si has completed the status interaction with his friends;

At this time, Li Si uploaded a picture or video or other multimedia files, and the server downloaded the file to all of Li Si's friends, including Zhang San. The SNS service in Zhang San's mobile phone obtained the file and stored it in storage unit, and remind Zhang San in the phone book that Li Si has shared the file; in this way, Li Si has completed the file sharing with his friends.

Furthermore, when a stranger named Wang Wu adds Zhang San as a friend, the information provided by Wang Wu may be name, phone number or e-mail address, etc. The SNS service transfers these information to the phone book through the interface, and applies for matching. The phone book searches the storage unit according to the information. When one or more matching items are found, it prompts Zhang San to find the matching contact, whether to add it as a friend, and Link to the contact, if Zhang San chooses Yes, then add Wang Wu as a friend and merge Wang Wu's information into the contacts in the mobile phone; if Zhang San chooses No, then neither add as a friend nor save the information. If no matching items are found, it will prompt Zhang San not to find any matching items, whether to add as a friend, if Zhang San chooses Yes, then add as a new contact, if Zhang San chooses No, he will not be added as a friend, and the information will not be saved .

If there are multiple third-party SNS service providers in the mobile phone, the advantages of the open function of the phone book will be better displayed. The user does not need to upgrade the version of the phone book, but only needs to authorize the required service and log in, and then he can log in to multiple phones at the same time. SNS service, update the status or upload pictures on these communication services, and update multiple accounts with only one operation.

Through the above steps, it can be found that as long as the user has the mobile phone of the phone book proposed by the present invention, there is no need to build any SNS service in the phone book, and only needs to add new services through authorization to communicate with friends instantly, and can update multiple phone books at the same time. account. User operations are greatly reduced.

As shown in Figure 5, it is a flowchart of a user operation:

First, the user enters the phone book, selects the authorization unit to query the SNS service in the device;

For example, if there is no built-in communication service, return to the phonebook idle interface;

If there is an SNS service and the communication service is authorized, the phone book creates a storage unit for the communication account;

When the user updates the status, the phonebook stores the status in the storage unit of the account;

The phone book notifies the terminal software of the social service, and transmits the latest status to the terminal software, and the terminal software sends the latest status to the server;

The server queries the friends of the user, and finds friends who have also registered for the service, and sends the latest status to the friend terminal, and the terminal software of the friend terminal receives the latest status data sent by the server;

The terminal software notifies the phonebook and sends the latest status to the phonebook through the API;

The phone book stores the latest status in the storage unit and displays it on the interface to remind the user that a friend has updated the status.

As shown in FIG. 6 , which is another user operation flow chart, the user can add contact information on the SNS service to the phone book.

The method proposed by the present invention enables the mobile terminal to conveniently obtain SNS service information through the phone book, and the user can synchronize the friend list in the account to the phone book on the mobile terminal. In addition, the mobile terminal can be synchronized with the server at regular intervals to download the latest news of friends from the server.
