Description

A DATA PROCESSING TERMINAL CAPABLE OF DISPLAYING VARIOUS ICON BADGES AND A METHOD FOR USING SUCH BADGES AND TERMINAL}

The present specification relates to an operating system of a data processing terminal such as a smart phone or a mobile phone, or to display the number or contents of push information received by various units of the terminal. More specifically, this specification describes how to create and use (unconfirmed) specified content contained in push information that the sender specifies one or more recipients, or (unconfirmed) designation capable of displaying the number or contents of (unconfirmed) specified content. It relates to how to create and use icon badges.

Accordingly, the content sender can send the designated content, which requires a relatively high need for confirmation by the receiver, to be sent separately from the non-designated content, which has a relatively low need to check. In addition, the content receiver can easily check the content that needs to be checked by himself/herself by using the designated content and the designated icon badge.

The sender's terminal includes the content in various types of "data packets" and transmits the contents to the network or the Internet through the transmitter. The terminal of the receiver receiving the data packet may extract the content from the packet. By using the above method, the sender and the receiver can exchange content with each other. Data processing terminals such as existing smartphones and mobile phones as well as terminals such as desktop or laptop computers and wired/wireless telephones can exchange contents in this manner.

In the present specification, a data packet is assumed to include "header," "contents" and "tail", but may include only one of a header and a tail in some cases. In the present specification, the "non-designated data packet" is the same as the existing data packet having various configurations, and therefore, the "non-designated data packet" also includes a header, content, and tail, but may include only one of a header and a dale in some cases. . For convenience of description, the content included in the “non-designated data packet” will be referred to as “non-designated content”.

In contrast, in the present specification, the "designated data packet" includes a header, a content, a tail, and a "designated signal", and in some cases, only one of a header and a tail may be included. For convenience of description, the content included in the "designated data packet" will be referred to as "designated content". When a sender belonging to a specific group established by a specific app transmits a designated data packet, the sender may designate a specific member of the group as a designated recipient. In particular, the "designated signal" means the designated recipient.

The designation signal may be included in the data packet as a part separate from the header, content, and tail. Alternatively, the designation signal may be included in the header or tail of the data packet or included in the content. In contrast, the designated signal may be transmitted separately from the data packet, and in this case, the data packet may be regarded as a non-designated data packet rather than a designated data packet, and the designated signal identifies the data packet as well as information indicating the designated recipient. May include information to

Based on the above definition, the present specification includes a phone transmission/reception app, a social network service (SNS) app, a groupware software app, a messenger app, an e-mail app, a scheduling app, etc. [1] "designated content," [2] "related to "push information" or "push notification" that can be created using and displayed together with the app icon of the app Designated icon badges," [3] various configurations of the designated content and designated icon badges, [4] various methods of generating the designated contents and designated icon badges, or [5] various methods of using the designated contents and designated icon badges, etc. About.

In addition, the present specification relates to the number or contents of “push information” sent or received by an operating system of a data processing terminal such as a smart phone or a mobile phone, or other units of the terminal. In particular, the present specification includes [1] various "push information (for example, a designated data packet)," which a sender can designate one or more recipients (ie, designated recipients), [2] various designated contents included in the push information, [3 ] Various "designated icon badges," which can display the number or contents of the push information or designated content, [4] various methods of generating the designated contents or designated icon badges, [5] of the designated contents and designated icon badges Various usage methods, [6] various designated icon badges that can display designated content with relatively high necessity to be checked by the recipient, separately from non-designated content with relatively low need, or [7] designated icon badge, etc. It relates to how to create and use a variety of.

In addition, the present specification relates to data processing terminals such as mobile phones and smart phones, as well as mobile pads, web pads, personal digital assistants, landline phones, interphones, radios, wired/wireless data processing devices, computers or communication devices. It relates to the application of designated content and designated icon badges.

In addition, the present specification relates to various configurations or methods for applying the designated content, designated data packet, or designated icon badge to a wired/wireless data processing unit, a wired/wireless control unit, or a wired/wireless communication unit of various devices. In particular, examples of such devices include [1] vehicles, buildings, robots or drones, [2] various electronic devices or electric devices, [3] Internet of Things network, or [4] [1] to [1] of this paragraph connected to the Internet of Things network. There are devices of [3]. Accordingly, various devices in this paragraph, users of the units, or users who receive data packets sent by the devices or units can easily check the number or contents of the designated content included in the data packet.

The user of the data processing terminal may run a specific app mounted on the terminal, exchange content with members of a specific group established by the app, and then finish driving the app. After the user finishes running the app, if a sender who is another member of the same group sends content to the user, the user cannot immediately check the content. The terminal or app may inform the user that it has received one or more "unconfirmed content" that the user has not yet verified. As an example, an existing terminal indicates the number of "unconfirmed contents" by using various "unconfirmed contents". [Fig. 1] is an example of various software apps (that is, an abbreviation of an application) mounted on a terminal and an unidentified icon badge displayed on an image unit together with the app icon of the app.

The terminal 10 may display the app on the image unit 11 in the form of an app icon 20 that is a user interface. For convenience of explanation, in this specification, "app" means "app icon" 20 displayed on an image unit as a user interface of the app, or the app icon means "app 20". As an example, the terminal 10 of FIG. 1 includes an image unit 11 in the form of a touch screen on the front side, and displays a total of six app icons 20 on the image unit 11.

For reference, the terminal 10 of Fig. 1 is driven in an unlocked state. Accordingly, the terminal 10 displays an app icon 20, which is a user interface for a plurality of apps that the user can drive in the unlocked state, on the home screen. Accordingly, when the user provides a user input to the app icon 20, the terminal 10 can drive the app. In addition, when the terminal 10 requests user authentication in order to move to the unlocked state, the terminal 10 of FIG. 1 may consider that the user has successfully authenticated and has moved to the unlocked state.

In addition, the terminal 10 may display an unconfirmed icon badge 21 for a specific app on the image unit 11. For reference, the terminal 10 of Fig. 1 includes three app icons 20 each with an unidentified icon badge 21 attached to the image unit 11 and three apps with no unidentified icon badge 21 attached. The icon 20 is displayed.

The terminal 10 may include one or more input units capable of receiving various user inputs provided by a user. The input unit is [1] an input unit in the form of a hard button, which is one of a number of hardware elements, [2] an input unit in the form of a touch screen that is at least a part of the image unit 11, or [3] a user interface such as a touch screen or a general screen. It may be an input unit in the form of a soft button provided in the form of (that is, U/I). When the terminal 10 in Fig. 1 is arranged so that its front side is facing upward, the input unit 12A in the form of a hard button on the left, an input unit in the form of a pair of hard buttons on the right side (12B) (12C), etc. Includes.

Although not shown in Fig. 1, the hard button type input units 12A, 12B, and 12C may be replaced with one or more soft button type input units displayed on the image unit 11 in U/I form. . In some cases, the terminal 10 may include one or more input units in the form of a soft button and one or more input units in the form of a hard button.

[Fig. 2] is a detailed example of an existing app icon (or app) 20 and an unidentified icon badge 21 attached thereto. The unconfirmed icon badge 21 in FIG. 2 indicates the number "230", and for convenience of explanation, the unconfirmed icon badge 21 may be expressed as "230" in the present specification. This means that a total of 230 push information sent by a single or multiple senders in a group to which the receiver belongs after the receiver finally drives the app 20 to the receiver. Therefore, when the receiver drives the app 20 again, the app 20 displays 230 new and unconfirmed content to the receiver.

[Fig. 3] is an example of an unconfirmed icon badge indicating a number of groups displayed on a video unit by a terminal and the number of unconfirmed contents existing in each group when a recipient runs a specific app. For example, when the receiver drives the app 20, the terminal 10 displays the group window 15 of the app 20 on the image unit 11. The group window 15 displays group icons 16 for a plurality of groups formed by a plurality of members using the app 20, and the names and members of the members belonging to the group next to the group icon 16 ID, member U/I (17), etc. can be displayed. For example, the group window 15 is "Kim 2," "Lee," "Park," "Kim 23," "Min," "Yu" is a member of Group 1 of the app 20, "Sim," "I1," "Park," "Lee2," and "Sylvia" indicate that they are members of group 2 of the same app 20.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the terminal 10 or the app 20 may display the number 21 of unconfirmed content for each group on the video unit 11. For example, the number of unconfirmed contents in Group 1 is 83, the number of unconfirmed contents in Group 2 is 23, the number of unconfirmed contents in Group 3 is 11, the number of unconfirmed contents in Group 4 is 31, and the number of unconfirmed contents in Group 5 is 17. It can be seen that the number of unconfirmed contents in group 6 is 23, the number of unconfirmed contents in group 7 is 3, and the number of unconfirmed contents in group 8 is 13.

[Fig. 4] is an example of displaying contents exchanged between members belonging to group 1 of the app of [Fig. 3] on an image unit. That is, when the user of the terminal 10 of [Fig. 1] provides a user input to the app 20 of [Fig. 2], the terminal 10 drives the app 20 and sends the image unit 11 to [Fig. 3]. ] Screen is displayed. When a user provides a user input to the group icon 16 corresponding to group 1 among a plurality of groups displayed on the group window 15, the terminal 10 displays the content window 19 of [Fig. 4] on the image unit 11. ) Is displayed, and the content window 19 displays various contents exchanged by members of Group 1. However, for convenience of explanation, detailed information such as the time at which each content was received is not displayed in [Fig. 4]. In addition, the borders around the contents 31L, 31B, and 31N in [Fig. 4] are displayed for convenience of explanation, and are not displayed on the actual screen.

Content 31L displayed in the content window 19 is a question raised by "Park", a member of Group 1, by designating "Sim", a user of the terminal 10 and a member of Group 1, and is different from the remaining members of Group 1. It can be said to be relatively unrelated content. That is, the content 31L may be regarded as "designated content" sent by designating "SIM" by "Park" as the sender.

On the other hand, the content 31N may be regarded as a content provided to all members of the group 1 including the user "sim" by "Kim 23", a member and sender of group 1. That is, the content 31N is not the content that "Kim 23" specifically designated and sent only the user "Sim", but the content that "Kim 23" provided to all members (including himself).

Therefore, it can be said that the need for the user "sim" to respond to the content 31N is lower than the need for the user "sim" to respond to the content 31L. In other words, from the perspective of the user "sim", the content 31N may be regarded as "non-designated content" without specifically specifying the user, rather than "designated content" that the sender specifically designated the user.

On the contrary, the content 31B is the content sent to all the members of the group 1 by the sender "Lee" who is a member of the group 1. However, when comparing the content 31B and the content 31N, it can be considered that the content 31B relatively needs the user's "sim" response. On the other hand, when comparing the content 31B with the content 31L, the content 31B is the response of the user "sim" It can be considered that it needs relatively less. Accordingly, in this case, the content 31B may be regarded as “non-designated content” rather than “designated content”, or may be subdivided and referred to as “partially designated content” in some cases.

As such, the unconfirmed content displayed by the existing unconfirmed icon badge 21 may include various content, and examples of the content included in the content include [1] the content sent by the sender to all members including the user , [2] Among the contents of [1] of this paragraph, contents that are not related to the user or are exchanged between other members, or [3] of the contents of [1], the sender specifically designates the user as a recipient and sends One content, etc.

In order to check whether the content that the sender specifically designated only the user as a recipient among unidentified content is included, the user must check the unidentified content one by one and check whether the content specifically designated by the sender as the recipient is included. This is because, until the window of a specific group is opened, the user cannot check whether the content designated by the sender is included in the unconfirmed content only by the number of unconfirmed content indicated by the existing unconfirmed icon badge.

However, when the number of icon badges is large (that is, when the number of unconfirmed content is large), it becomes difficult for the user to check whether the unidentified content includes the content that the sender pointed to the user. In addition, as the number of unconfirmed contents is large, it takes a considerable amount of time for users to check all of them.

The present specification relates to various configurations and methods capable of overcoming the disadvantages of the above-described existing “unidentified icon badge”. That is, the various data processing terminals of the present specification use a "(unconfirmed) designated icon badge" that can display the number or contents of "(unconfirmed) designated content" designated by the sender, unlike the existing unconfirmed icon badge. Overcoming the disadvantages of the existing unidentified icon badge described above. In particular, the terminal of the present specification refers to the "(unconfirmed) designated content (hereinafter abbreviated as "designated content" hereinafter)" provided by the sender specifically designating the recipient among the "unidentified content" received in a specific group of a specific app. By creating a "(unconfirmed) designated icon badge (hereinafter abbreviated as "designated icon badge")" that can visually display the number or contents and display it in various ways, various benefits to the sender as well as the recipient Provides.

In addition, the present specification is a wired/wireless telephone transmission/reception operation using "software elements (hereinafter abbreviated as "S/W elements") such as an operating system of a data processing terminal, a computer program, and a software application (application, hereinafter abbreviated as "app"), When executing various tasks such as SNS (social network service) tasks, groupware software tasks, messenger tasks, e-mail tasks, and other wired/wireless communication tasks, the "designated content" or "designated" It relates to various configurations and methods of creating and utilizing "icon badge".

In more detail, the present specification is a configuration and method that can more efficiently utilize the number or contents of "push information" received by S/W elements of a data processing terminal such as a smartphone or a mobile phone or other units of the terminal. It is about. In particular, this specification can display the number or contents of the specified content included in the [1] push information (for example, the sender sets a number of recipients and sends the content, but the content is provided by designating one or more specific recipients). "Designated icon badge," [2] All unconfirmed contents included in push information or "unspecified contents" included in push information (ie, the sender has set multiple recipients, but none of the recipients specifically designate Provided content) and a "designated icon badge," which is displayed so that they can be distinguished from each other. [3] The "designated content" having a relatively high need to be checked by the recipient is distinguished from the "non-designated content" having a relatively low need. Displayable "designated icon badge," [4] How to create and use "designated content", [5] "Push notification" method to distinguish between "designated content" and "non-designated content", or [6] ] It relates to a "push notification" method and the like using "designated icon badge".

However, the need for the receiver to check specific content can be established by various subjects. For example, a sender who sends the content may establish the necessity for a receiver to check the content sent by the receiver. In other words, it is a decision of its own necessity based on the judgment of the sender. Alternatively, the caller's terminal can determine the need. For example, when a sender sends a specific content, the terminal checks the content of the content or analyzes the past content exchanged between the sender and the receiver stored in the terminal or server, and then establishes the necessity according to the result of the analysis. I can. Alternatively, the recipient's terminal may establish this need. For example, when a receiver receives a specific content, the terminal checks the content of the content or analyzes the past content exchanged between the sender and the receiver stored in the terminal or server, and then establishes the necessity based on this. . Alternatively, the server may establish this need. For example, the server may analyze the content of the content sent by the sender or the past content that the sender and the receiver have exchanged with each other, and then establish the necessity based on this.

In other words, the sender, the sender terminal, or the receiver who receives the designated content designated as the high necessity by the receiver terminal may or may not send a response to the sender after checking the content. Also, a recipient who confirms receipt of the specified content from a specific app or a specific group may open the group window of the group and read the specified content to check the content, but by not opening the app or the group window at all, the specified content is not read. It may or may not be confirmed. For example, if most members of a specific group of a specific app that has received a large number of specified content are members of a group that the user does not currently participate in, the recipient may not be able to check the unconfirmed content of the group even if they easily recognize the reception of the specified content. have. This is because even if the receiver's terminal informs that there is designated content received from a specific app or a specific group, it is the receiver's choice to open the group window and read the designated content.

The (unconfirmed) specified content of the present specification, the specified data packet including the content, and a specified icon badge indicating the number of the content are mounted on various data processing terminals such as mobile phones or smart phones, so that the sender and the receiver are more efficient. It provides the benefit of being able to exchange content with a user. Therefore, the designated content, designated data packet, and designated icon badge can be efficiently applied to a messenger app, an email app, an SNS app, and a groupware software app installed in a terminal. In addition, the designated content, designated data packet, and designated icon badge may be applied to a scheduling app installed in a terminal, an advertisement display app, an app notifying the occurrence of a specific event, and an alarm app.

Designated content and designated icon badges of the present specification may be applied to control hardware elements or software elements of data processing terminals such as mobile phones and smart phones. In addition, the designated content, designated data packet, designated icon badge, etc. in this specification may be applied to transmit/receive or control various electric devices or units of the building, vehicle, robot, drone, IoT network, IoT network, etc. May be.

The first means of implementing the objectives of the present specification relates to a configuration and method capable of creating and using "(unconfirmed) specified content" using "designated signals". To this end, various terminals of the present specification may generate and transmit a designated content and a designated signal in the form of an existing data packet using an existing hardware element or an existing software element. The terminal [1] includes a designated signal in the header or tail of the data packet, [2] includes the designated signal in the contents of the packet, or [3] converts the contents according to the designated signal, and converts the converted Content may be included in the data packet.

Alternatively, the terminal may generate and transmit designated content and designated signals in the form of new data packets using existing hardware or software elements. For example, the terminal [1] generates a separate part other than the head, content, and tail in the data packet including the content, and then includes a designation signal in the separate part, or [2] the data packet including the content After including the designated signal in a data packet separate from the data packet, the two data packets are sent sequentially or simultaneously, or [3] the terminal transmits the designated signal and the data packet not including the designated signal to the server, respectively, and the server May be configured to store the designated signal. The receiver's terminal may retrieve a designation signal from the server or receive a designation signal sent by the server. In this specification, a server means a central server or a local server, and these will be collectively referred to as a "server" in the future.

A second means of implementing the objectives of the present specification relates to a configuration or method of generating and using a "directed data packet" comprising a "directed signal". To this end, various terminals in the present specification [1] generate and transmit or receive content in the form of a "designated data packet" including a designated signal using an existing hardware element or software element, or [2] an existing hardware element A designation signal may be included in a new type of data packet different from the type of the existing data packet and transmitted or received by using an element or a software element. Alternatively, the receiver's terminal [1] receives an existing data packet that does not include a designated signal, and checks whether the content included in the packet is designated content or non-designated content from a designated signal stored in the server or from other data, or Or [2] receiving an existing data packet that does not include a designated signal, and the contents are displayed according to various characteristics of the contents included in the data packet (eg, font, size, shape, color, background, transparency, arrangement, etc.). You can check whether it is a designated content or a non-designated content.

A third means of implementing the object of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of creating and using a "(unconfirmed) designated icon badge" indicating the number or content of "(unconfirmed) designated content" included in the unconfirmed content. To this end, various terminals of the present specification display the icon of a specific app on the video unit, [1] the number or contents of the specified content included in the unconfirmed content are displayed together using a specified icon badge, or [2] the unidentified content Whether or not the designated content is included may be displayed together using a designated icon badge, or [3] when the designated content is not included in the unconfirmed content, a designated icon badge displaying the designated content may be displayed together in various configurations.

The terminal in [1] or [2] in the above paragraph manipulates various visual characteristics such as letters, numbers, images, symbols, figures, etc. on the [1] designated icon badge to indicate the number or presence of designated contents, or [2] ] You can manipulate the color, font, or background of the designated icon badge, [3] manipulate the shape or size of the designated icon badge, or [4] manipulate the position and orientation of the designated icon badge. . The terminal in [3] in the above paragraph [1] indicates a designated icon badge as "0", or includes a "0" on a designated icon badge, or [2] indicates an unidentified content that does not contain any designated content. The same color, font, and background as the icon badge (hereinafter abbreviated as "designated icon badge ₍₀₎ ") for unidentified content including one or more designated content ( _{hereinafter abbreviated as "designated icon badge (N)")} It is marked with a different shape, size, position, or orientation, or [3] designated icon badge ₍₀₎ is displayed in the same shape, size, position, or orientation as designated icon badge _{(N), but with a different color, font, or} It can be configured to have a background, or [4] can only display an unidentified icon badge without displaying a designated icon badge.

The fourth means of realizing the purpose of this specification is "(unconfirmed) unspecified content included in [1] unconfirmed content together with "designated icon badge" indicating the number or contents of "(unconfirmed) specified content" included in unconfirmed content The present invention relates to a configuration and method of displaying or using the "unspecified icon badge" indicating the number or contents of "or [2] an existing "unidentified icon badge" indicating the total number of unconfirmed contents. As an example, various terminals of the present specification display the app icon of a specific app on the video unit, and [1] the number or content of the specified content included in the unconfirmed content is displayed using a specified icon badge, or [2] unconfirmed Display icon badges and designated icon badges at various locations on the video unit according to various arrangements, [3] undesignated icon badges and designated icon badges at various locations on video units according to various arrangements, or [4] designated icons The badge may be displayed so that it can be easily distinguished from an unidentified icon badge or an unspecified icon badge, or [5] a designated icon badge and an unidentified icon badge (or an unspecified icon badge) may be displayed in a different configuration or in a different arrangement.

When the terminal simultaneously displays a designated icon badge and an unidentified icon badge (or an unspecified icon badge) on the video unit, the terminal [1] displays the badge as a different image or figure so that the badges are easily distinguished from each other, or [ 2] Display with different fonts, thicknesses, colors, transparency, backgrounds, etc., [3] display with different shapes, sizes, etc., or [4] display with different positions or orientations. .

The terminal may place designated icon badges and unidentified (or unspecified) icon badges on the video unit in a variety of ways. For example, a terminal may [1] display badges on the top or bottom or left and right of the video unit at a distance from each other, [2] arrange a line symmetrical or point symmetric with respect to a specific point or line of the video unit, or [3] asymmetrically Display, [4] mark so that at least some parts overlap each other, [5] mark so that at least parts touch each other, [6] display concentric circles or concentric figures with a distance, or [7] a single figure or Display at a distance inside the image, [8] Concentric circles, or at least some of the inside of a concentric figure overlap each other or display in contact, or [9] A single figure or at least some of the inside of the image overlap or touch each other. Can be marked to do.

A fifth means of implementing the object of the present specification is a configuration in which a user can select a "designated recipient" by providing a mechanical user input to the terminal, and generate and use "designated signal" and "designated content" based on the selection, and It's about the method. For example, a user may [1] generate a designation signal by providing a user input for operating a hard or soft keyboard, [2] generate a designation signal by providing a user input for contacting and manipulating a touch screen, or [3] A designation signal can be generated by providing a user input for operating an input unit in the form of other hard buttons or soft buttons of the terminal.

A sixth means of implementing the object of the present specification is a configuration and method for generating and using "designated signal" and "designated content" based on the selection after the user selects "designated recipient" by providing different user inputs to the terminal. It is about. To this end, the user may generate a designation signal by providing [1] a user input such as a movement or a gesture, or [2] an electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic, or acoustic user input to generate the designation signal. In particular, the terminal of [1] in this paragraph [3] directly mechanically, electrically, magnetically or acoustically detects the user's movement or gesture, or [4] the user’s static movement or gesture. An image or dynamic image can be obtained electromagnetically and analyzed to generate a designated signal.

The seventh means of implementing the purpose of the present specification is that the terminal analyzes the content of the content sent by the sender or received by the receiver using various existing information analysis algorithms, and then the terminal includes "designated request information" in the content. Checking is related to a configuration and method for generating and using "designated content" by generating "designated signal". To this end, the terminal uses various information analysis algorithms used in the fields of existing artificial intelligence, big data, natural language processing, machine learning, and deep learning, so that the name, name, and nickname of a specific member of a specific group from the contents of the sender or receiver. Alternatively, a word, text, or symbol that means or refers to the member may be searched. When the terminal checks the designation request information, the terminal selects a designated recipient based on this and may convert the content into designated content.

Alternatively, the terminal may search for images or sounds attached to the content of the sender or receiver by using the information analysis algorithm. Therefore, if the algorithm determines that the image is a picture or video of a specific member, or an image related to the name, name, or nickname of a specific member, the terminal may regard this as designation request information. Similarly, the information analysis algorithm can analyze the sound attached to the content of the sender or receiver, and confirm the sound as the voice of a specific member, or that the sound is an image related to the name, name, and nickname of a specific member. Upon confirmation, the terminal can treat this as designation request information. When the terminal checks the designation request information, the terminal selects a designated recipient based on this, and may convert the content into designated content.

An eighth means of implementing the object of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of displaying content so that a receiver can easily identify a designated content among unconfirmed content. For example, when displaying unidentified content on the image unit, the terminal may selectively simplify or minimize only non-designated contents, or may not display non-designated contents at all. In this case, the terminal can highlight and display the specified content or display it without highlighting.

Alternatively, the terminal may display unconfirmed content and confirmed content on the image unit, and selectively simplify or minimize (unconfirmed or confirmed) unspecified content, or may not display. Accordingly, the terminal may display (unconfirmed or confirmed) designated content as it is or highlighted on the image unit, or selectively display only designated content.

A ninth means of implementing the object of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for selectively displaying specified content related to a user among unconfirmed content. For example, the terminal may selectively display or store only the specified content sent to the user by [1] the sender in the video unit, or [2] separately display or store the specified content sent by the user.

In particular, in the case of specified content sent to the user, the terminal may [1] display or store only unconfirmed specified content, [2] display or store only confirmed specified content, [3] display or store all unconfirmed and confirmed specified content, or , [4] (Unconfirmed or confirmed) Shows or stores only the content sent to the user by one or more specific members of the specified content, or [5] Content sent to the user by one or more specific members of the confirmation specified content, and the user for this Content sent as a response can be displayed or saved separately.

In the case of the specified content sent by the user, the terminal either [1] displays or saves only the specified content (unconfirmed or confirmed) of a specific specified recipient, or [2] displays or stores all (unconfirmed or confirmed) specified content of all specified recipients. Or [3] separately display or store the (unconfirmed or confirmed) content sent by the designated recipient in response to the designated content, or [4] the designated content provided by the user to one or more specific members, and the specific member Corresponding content can be displayed or stored separately.

A tenth means of implementing the object of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for selectively displaying various contents for a user as well as other senders or recipients. For example, a terminal may [1] display unconfirmed designated content, confirmed designated content, or all designated contents sent to the user by a certain member on the video unit or store it in the terminal (or server), or [2] a certain member may Unverified or unconfirmed content sent to all members, or all unspecified content, displayed on a video unit, stored in a terminal (or server), or [3] verified or unconfirmed sent by a user to a specific (or all) member ( [4] Confirmed or unconfirmed (designated or non-designated) contents sent by other members to specific (or all) members, or [4] to display designated or non-designated) content separately on a video unit or store it on a terminal (or server). It can be displayed on a separate image unit or stored on a terminal (or server), but the members of this [4] are not users.

The eleventh means of implementing the objectives of the present specification relates to various classifications of content. To this end, content sent by a user or a sender can be classified into non-designated contents and designated contents. Alternatively, the content sent by the user or the sender may be classified into non-designated contents, designated contents, and one or more partial designated contents. Accordingly, icon badges can also be classified into non-designated icon badges, designated icon badges, or some designated icon badges.

The twelfth means of implementing the object of the present specification relates to the presence or absence, number, or content of designated content using a designated icon badge. For example, the terminal may display an icon of a specific app on the video unit, and display an unconfirmed icon badge indicating the number of unconfirmed contents or a designated icon badge indicating the number of designated contents. Alternatively, the terminal generates various designation icon badges using various designation signals to indicate whether the designated content included in the unconfirmed content is text, image, or sound, or the size of the designated content, sending or receiving the designated content. You can also display the time.

The thirteenth means of implementing the object of the present specification relates to the display of the specified content provided by the user only to the specified recipients specified by the user. For example, unlike the first to twelfth means, when a user selects a specific member as a designated recipient, the terminal [1] sends the designated content sent by the user only to the designated recipient, not to other members, or [ 2] Content sent by the user is delivered to all members, but the terminal of the designated recipient displays it, but the terminal of other members can not display it.

For the implementation of the thirteenth means, the terminal [1] includes a special designation signal in the designated data packet for [1] in the above paragraph (therefore, the contents included in the packet are designated contents), [2] the server Sends the specified data packet including the specified content only to the specified recipient, [3] the terminal of the specified recipient displays it after receiving the specified content, but the terminals of the other members do not receive the specified content at all, or [4] The recipient's terminal receives the specified content and displays it, but the other member's terminal receives the specified content but does not provide it to the app, or [5] the app of the specified recipient's terminal receives the specified content and displays it. , The app of the rest of the members receives the specified content, but may not display it.

A fourteenth means of implementing the object of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of applying a designation signal, a designation data packet, and a designation icon badge to various devices. For example, designation signals, designated data packets, or designated icon badges in the present specification include data processing devices such as smartphones, mobile phones, mobile pads, web pads, and personal digital assistants, as well as computers, wired/wireless telephones, and interphones. , It can be applied to communication devices such as walkie-talkie. In addition, designation signals, designated data packets, or designated icon badges in the present specification are [1] wired/wireless data processing units, communication units or control units included in vehicles, buildings, robots, drones, etc., and [2] control units of the IoT network itself. Alternatively, it may be applied to a data processing unit, or [3] an electronic device or an electric device connected to an IoT network.

The fifteenth means of implementing the object of the present specification is to determine the number of unconfirmed specified content even if the group window or content window of a specific app is not opened, that is, even if a smaller number of steps is taken or a smaller number of user inputs are received. It provides a terminal that can perform a specific function to check. To this end, various terminals of the present specification provide an improved user interface (U/I) that can easily check whether or not an unconfirmed specified content sent by a member of a specific app among unidentified content points to a user.

Accordingly, the user does not need to perform the step of opening the group window of the app by pressing the icon of the specific app, or without the need to perform the step of opening the content window of the group after the user selects a specific group, the number of apps is plural. Whether or not the unconfirmed specified content is included in the unconfirmed content received from a member of the group window of or received from a member of a specific group window, or if it is included, the number of unconfirmed specified content can be easily checked.

Accordingly, in the case of various terminals of the present specification and video units of the terminal that must be produced under a certain size, the number of unconfirmed contents as well as unconfirmed designated contents by using various small sized icon badges around or inside the app icon even on a small screen. Alternatively, the number of unconfirmed and unspecified content can be easily displayed.

The sixteenth means of implementing the object of the present specification is to combine an app icon (or U/I) with a new functionality to an app icon with an existing functionality, so that the app icon (or U/I) with improved functionality. Is to provide. Accordingly, various terminals of the present specification may display an unconfirmed icon badge corresponding to an existing functionality and a (unconfirmed) designated icon badge corresponding to a new functionality when displaying the app icon on the video unit. Accordingly, various terminals of the present specification propose a solution to a problem or an inherent limitation of an unidentified icon badge displayed by an existing portable communication device.

1 . Means and effects

According to the first means described above, the terminal of the present specification can maintain the configuration of the existing mobile phone, smart phone, and the like and the order of execution of tasks as much as possible. Therefore, it is possible to minimize the manufacturing cost of the terminal of the present specification. In addition, users can easily drive terminals with existing configurations according to the existing task execution sequence.

According to the second means described above, the terminal of the present specification may transmit or receive a designation signal using an existing data packet. Accordingly, various terminals of the present specification can maintain the configuration and operation order of the existing mobile phone, smart phone, etc. as much as possible. Accordingly, the manufacturer can minimize the manufacturing cost of the terminal. In addition, a user can easily drive a terminal with an existing configuration according to the existing task execution sequence.

According to the third means, the user can determine whether the specified content is included in the unidentified content with only the number attached to the icon of the specific app displayed on the video unit by the terminal of the present specification, that is, the specified icon badge, and if so, how many. You can easily check if it is done. Similarly, the content sender can also induce a recipient designated by the content to pay attention to the content sent by the content sender and also to check the content.

The user who drives the terminal of the present specification according to the fourth means described above can visually easily check the presence or absence of the designated content included in the unconfirmed content. In addition, the user can visually easily check the presence or number of non-designated contents or designated contents included in the unconfirmed contents.

A user who uses the terminal of the present specification according to the above-described fifth means can easily generate a designation signal through an operation identical or similar to the operation execution sequence of manipulating the input unit of the existing mobile phone or smartphone. Terminal manufacturers can also minimize terminal manufacturing costs.

According to the sixth means described above, the terminal of the present specification can receive the mechanical, electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic, or acoustic user input using an existing hardware element, thereby minimizing the manufacturing cost of the terminal. I can. In addition, the user can easily manipulate the terminal to provide user input in various ways to generate a designated signal.

According to the seventh means described above, the terminal of the present specification can automatically check whether the specified content is included in the unconfirmed content even when the sender does not generate the specified signal. In other words, the sender driving the terminal can generate the designated signal without providing additional (mechanical) user input to generate the designated signal. Alternatively, the sender may obtain an image related to himself, a designated recipient, or other member with a camera, and then supply it to the terminal as a user input, or obtain a microphone and supply it as a user input to generate a designated signal. I can. In this case, the terminal of the designated recipient may display the content as designated content. Even if the sender's terminal does not generate the designation signal, the receiver's terminal may generate the designation signal from the image or voice. For example, if the recipient terminal receives the image or voice and confirms it, the terminal may display it as designated content. This designation signal generation method may be used in parallel with the fifth or sixth means.

The user who drives the terminal of the present specification according to the above-described eighth means can eliminate or minimize the interference caused by the non-designated contents when checking the designated contents included in the unconfirmed contents. In addition, when the user checks the confirmed content or the specified content included in the unidentified content, the visual interference caused by the unspecified content may be removed or minimized.

The user who drives the terminal of the present specification according to the ninth means [1] can easily distinguish or check content that has not designated itself as a designated recipient from content designated as a designated recipient, or [2] Easily identify or check the designated content sent to the designated recipient or the designated content sent to the user by a specific member or all members, or [3] easily check whether the member responds to the designated content provided to a specific member Or, [4] easily distinguish or confirm whether the user has responded to the specified content sent by a specific member to the user, or [5] easily check the content exchanged with a specific member and mutual opinions or relationships Can be easily identified.

The user who drives the terminal of the present specification according to the tenth means described above may [1] easily identify or check non-designated content or specified content sent or received by a specific member, or [2] content exchanged by specific members. By easily confirming, their opinions or relationships can be easily grasped.

The user who drives the terminal of the present specification according to the eleventh means can easily identify and identify non-designated content or designated content sent or received by a specific member. Accordingly, the user can easily grasp the opinion or relationship between himself and the specific member or other members by easily checking the exchange of contents between himself and a specific member or between specific members excluding himself/herself.

The user who drives the terminal of the present specification according to the above-described twelfth means can easily check what the content of the specified content included in the unconfirmed content is by using the specified icon badge. For example, the user can easily check whether the specified content is text, file, image, or voice.

According to the thirteenth means described above, the content sent by the sender driving the terminal of the present specification to the designated recipient may be made unknowable to the rest of the members. Therefore, the sender can exchange content only with the designated recipient even within a specific group.

The user who drives the terminal of the present specification by the fourteenth means can use the terminal to exchange content with devices other than the terminal and operate the devices or the units. In particular, a user may directly operate the device or unit by connecting his terminal to the device or unit by wire or wirelessly, or remotely operate the device or unit by using his terminal as a remote controller.

According to the fifteenth means described above, the terminal of the present specification can perform a specific function even if a user applies a simpler or fewer number of user inputs. For example, a user using an existing portable data processing device must apply at least two user inputs to check the number of unidentified designated content included in the unidentified content. In other words, the user applies the first user input to move the device in the off state to the locked or unlocked state, and applies the second user input to the U/I of a specific app with an unidentified icon badge indicating the number of unconfirmed content, and the group window And unconfirmed content included in unconfirmed content is included only when a third input is applied to one of the U/I of a plurality of groups with an unidentified icon badge indicating the number of unconfirmed content and opening the content window of the group. I can check. In addition, there is an inconvenience in that there is no way for the user to know whether the specified content is included in the unconfirmed content until the content window is opened. In addition, even when opening a specific content window and confirming that there are unconfirmed specified content, the user must count them one by one in order to check how many unconfirmed specified content exist.

However, a user using the data processing terminal of the present specification can easily check the number of unconfirmed designated content included in the unconfirmed content by applying only the first user input or by applying the first and second user inputs. That is, the U/I, which is an app icon with an unconfirmed designation icon badge in the present specification, can easily solve the above problem of an app icon that is a U/I of an existing data processing device. For example, when the terminal displays an app icon and a designated icon badge related to it on a locked lock screen, the user using the terminal provides unconfirmed designated content received by a specific app even if only the first user input in the above paragraph is provided. You can know the number of In addition, when the terminal displays the home screen in the unlocked state after providing the first user input in the above paragraph, the user can easily check the number of unconfirmed designated content received by a specific app. In addition, when the user provides the first user input in the above paragraph and selects a specific app from among the plurality of apps displayed on the screen, and then opens the group window of the app by providing the second user input in the above paragraph, the user You can also check the number of unconfirmed designated content that has arrived at each of the plurality of groups. Therefore, compared to users who use U/I called app icons in existing data processing devices, users who use the new U/I called app icons improved in terms of the unidentified designated icon badge, like the terminal of this specification, are more simple. If only a smaller number of steps is performed, or only a smaller number of user inputs are provided, the same or more improved results can be obtained.

According to the sixteenth means described above, the user of the terminal of the present specification can more simply and more easily check the existence or number of unconfirmed designated content by using the terminal as compared to the existing data processing device. Alternatively, the user of the terminal of the present specification may perform a task of confirming the number of unconfirmed designated content that the existing portable communication device could not execute. Alternatively, the user of the terminal of the present specification can perform a more improved function, such as performing a smaller number of steps using the terminal, or providing a smaller number of user inputs and confirming unconfirmed specified content compared to the existing portable communication device. I can.

2 . Justice

Various words or phrases used in the present specification shall mean the following.

In the present specification, "data processing terminal" or simply "terminal" transmits or receives data (for example, various contents or data packets including the contents) by wired or wireless (ie wired or wireless), and may process or store the data. It is collectively referred to as an electronic device or an electric device that is present. The terminal may be manufactured in a mobile (or portable) form or a non-portable form.

The “terminal” may be a “portable data processing terminal”, and examples of the terminal include [1] a smartphone, [2] a mobile phone, [3] a mobile pad, [4] a web pad, and [5] a portable information terminal ( personal digital assistant).

In this specification, various means of transportation in [1] to [3] of this paragraph will be collectively referred to as a "vehicle".

The "terminal" may be a different electronic device or an electrical device. Examples of such "terminals" include [1] wired/wireless control units, data processing units or communication units included in or mounted on robots or drones, [2] wired/wireless control units, data processing units or communication units of the IoT network itself, or [ 3] There are wired/wireless control units, data processing units, or communication units of electronic devices or electric devices connected to the IoT network. The wired/wireless control unit, wired/wireless data processing unit, or wired/wireless communication unit described above will be collectively referred to herein as a "unit".

In the present specification, the expression "a terminal executes a specific task" generally refers to [1] various hardware elements or software elements mounted on the terminal to execute a specific task, or [2] an operating system (ie, one of the software elements of the terminal). O/S) executes a specific task, or [3] refers to a case where a "software application" (that is, abbreviated as "app"), which is one of the software elements installed on the terminal, executes a specific task, and so on. In the specification, the expression "a terminal or an app executes a specific task" means that a hardware element, operating system, app, or other software element of the terminal executes the task. The “app” may be installed on the terminal, or the terminal distributor sells the terminal and the “app” is mounted on the terminal, or the user may install the “app” on the terminal after purchasing the terminal.

In the present specification, the terminal may transmit or receive various "contents" through the Internet or a network in the form of various "data packets". The existing "data packet" may have various structures according to the type of content included in the packet or the Internet protocol. In the present specification, the "data packet" is assumed to include "header," "contents" and "tail", and may include only one of a header or a tail in some cases. In general, the "header" may include schematic information about a data packet, a service, and other data related to transmission/reception, and the "tail" also includes data related to transmission/reception of the packet, or the type, characteristic of the content, and processing of the content. It may contain data related to etc.

In the present specification, "content" refers to text such as a sentence or document composed of letters, numbers, symbols, and the like. "Content" may include figures or geometric objects such as points and lines, and may include images or sounds in some cases. In addition to the text, figure, object, image, or sound, a file may be attached to the "content". Also, "content" may include only figures, objects, images, or sounds without the above-described text.

In the present specification, "non-designated data packet" refers to a data packet including content that is transmitted by a sender without designating a specific recipient. In this specification, the "non-designated data packet" is assumed to be the same as the existing "data packet". Therefore, the "non-designated data packet" also includes a header, content, and tail, and may include only one of a header or a tail in some cases. In addition, the content included in the "non-designated data packet" of the present specification is referred to as "non-designated content," that is, the content sent by the sender without specifying a specific recipient. Therefore, the sender generally sends the non-designated data packet or the non-designated content to all (or multiple) members of the group to which he belongs.

In the present specification, a "designated data packet" refers to a data packet including content that the sender desires or requests for confirmation and is sent by the sender, that is, a data packet including content sent by the sender by designating a specific receiver. The "designated data packet" includes a "designated signal" in addition to a header, content, and tail, and may include only one of a header or a tail in some cases. In addition, the content included in the "designated data packet" of the present specification is referred to as "designated content," that is, the content designated by the sender as the "designated recipient".

Therefore, a sender generally designates one or more members of the group to which he belongs as a designated recipient, sends a designated data packet or designated content to the designated recipient, and sends the designated content to the designated recipient as well as all (or not all, but multiple) of the group. Of) will be sent to the members. On the contrary, the sender may send the designated data packet or the designated content only to the designated recipients of the group, but not the other members of the group, depending on the configuration of the terminal, app or server, or the characteristics of the network.

However, the configuration or form of the content (ie, "non-designated content") included in the "non-designated data packet" of the present specification is generally the same as the configuration or form of the content (ie, "designated content") included in the "interfering data packet" It can be similar. However, if the content is included in the "non-designated data packet", it is referred to as "non-designated content", whereas if the same or similar contents are included in the "designated data packet", the content is referred to as "designated content".

The terminal may include the "designated signal" in the header, content, or tail of the designated data packet. Alternatively, the terminal may not include the "designated signal" in a data packet including content. In this case, the terminal may separately transmit or receive the data packet and the "designated signal", in which case the terminal transmits and receives the "designated signal" as a signal itself, or includes the "designated signal" in a separate data packet. To send and receive. That is, the terminal may use a "designated data packet" having a different form from the existing data packet, and in this case, the "designated data packet" may include a designation signal or designated content in various forms described above and below. Alternatively, the terminal may transmit the designated signal or designated content to the receiver terminal or transmit information about it in various ways.

A user driving various terminals of the present specification may form a specific group consisting of a plurality of members in order to exchange content with a single or a plurality of other users using a specific app mounted on the terminal. In the present specification, "(general) setting" or simply "setting" refers to an operation in which a sender of a group selects the remaining members of the group as targets for content delivery (ie, "general recipients"). Therefore, if the sender sends the above content (that is, "non-designated content" included in the "non-designated data packet") to all members of a specific group, all members receive the content in the same type of data packet, and the content is received in the same type. Can be displayed on the video unit.

When the receiver terminal receives the content sent by the sender, the receiver terminal may display the content sent by the sender in the content window of the app. Also, for convenience, the sender's terminal may or may not display the content sent by the sender in the content window. Therefore, unless there is a conflicting description, it is assumed that the terminal of the present specification or the app mounted on the terminal displays the content in the content window of the sender's terminal when a sender of a specific group sends content. However, the sender terminal may display the content in a different form, and thus the sender can easily confirm that the content is the content sent by the sender.

On the other hand, in the present specification, "designated" refers to an operation in which a sender designates and selects a single or multiple members (ie, "designated recipients") who specifically request to check the content sent by the sender in a specific group of a specific app. The sender (or terminal) generates a "designated signal" through various methods described below, and the terminal generates a "designated data packet" including the signal. When a sender selects a designated recipient of a specific group and transmits a designated data packet including designated content, the designated recipient as well as the remaining members of the group may receive the designated content. After that, the terminal of the other members except the designated recipient displays the received designated content on the video unit in the form of the non-designated content, but the designated recipient's terminal displays the received designated content on the video unit in a different form than the non-designated content. I can. As a result, the designated recipient can easily recognize that the sender requests the designated recipient to check the designated content.

The sender's terminal can send content and designation signals in various forms. For example, the terminal sends the packet after [1] including the content and the designated signal in the designated data packet, or [2] the non-designated data packet including the content and the disturbance signal separately, and the designated signal is transmitted to the non-designated data packet. Information that can be linked to the unspecified data packet is included in the unspecified data packet, or [3] the unspecified data packet including the content and the specified signal are separately sent, but information that can link the specified signal to the unspecified data packet can be stored in the server. have. The receiver's terminal can also receive designated signals in various forms. For example, the terminal [1] after receiving the designated data packet, extracts the content and designated signal included in the packet, or [2] after receiving the designated signal, checks the non-designated data packet corresponding to the designated signal. Designated content can be extracted from this.

In this specification, "push information" refers to various contents, data packets, designation signals, etc. that various senders such as servers or Internet publishers send to recipients through the Internet or a network. Therefore, "push information" can be regarded as opposed to information initiated by a user's request and delivered in a pull/get form. Push information refers to various data packets or contents. Therefore, examples of push information include [1] "non-designated data packets," [2] "designated data packets," [3] "designated contents" or [4] "non-designated contents. ", etc., and each content is the same as the content defined above. When the sender terminal transmits the designation signal separately from the data packet, the designation signal may also be regarded as push information.

In more detail, various senders may send the push information. For example, when content exchange between a plurality of members of a specific group of a specific app is possible, a user who is a member of the group may be a sender. In this case, after receiving the content from the user, the terminal or the app may send the content to the remaining members set in the group in the form of push information. In this case, the terminal or the app may also send content to the user. On the other hand, another member of the group, which may not be a user, may be the sender of the push information. At this time, the terminal or the app may receive the content from the member and then send the content to all members in the form of push information, and all members may include a user.

When the purpose of a specific app is not to exchange content between a plurality of members, the terminal or the app may provide the user with content generated by itself or provided from an external source. In this case, the provider of the push information may be a terminal or an app. Alternatively, when the device directly sends the contents generated by the various electronic devices or various electric devices to the terminal of the receiver, the device may be a provider of push information. However, if the device generates content and then sends it to the server, and the server sends the content to the recipient terminal, the electronic device or electric device can be regarded as a provider of push information, or otherwise, the server is pushed information. It can also be regarded as a provider of.

In this way, push information can be sent by different providers. For example, a server or an Internet publisher can send push information without a user's command. The terminal can also send push information on its own without a user's command. Similarly, control units or data processing units of vehicles, airplanes, buildings, drones or robots can send push information on their own without a user's command. Alternatively, the control unit, data processing unit, or communication unit of various electric devices belonging to the IoT network generates information on its own without a user's command or without an IoT network or network administrator's command, and it is sent to the recipient's terminal in the form of push information. Can ship.

In the present specification, "push notification" refers to numbers, letters, symbols, text, images, or numbers representing or displaying the "number" or "contents" of various "push information" received by a recipient of a specific group of a specific app. Refers to information such as sound.

As described above, various providers such as terminals, servers, and apps may provide push information in various ways. A first detailed example of this is that if the provider provides push information, the recipient's terminal or app may notify the user of the push information in the form of a push notification, and in particular, in the form of an unconfirmed icon badge or a (unconfirmed) designated icon badge. I can. Therefore, when the user turns on the video unit, the terminal displays an app icon, and may display an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge along with it. When the user provides an additional user input to the app icon, the terminal displays a group window, and the user can know the number of unconfirmed content received in each group displayed on the group window. That is, in the case of the detailed example, the user cannot know whether push information to be read or checked has arrived until the video unit is turned on.

In the case of the second detailed example, when the provider provides push information, the recipient terminal or app notifies the user of the push information through the post notification in the above paragraph, but this is not only unlocked, but also locked (ie, the video unit is turned on, but It can also be displayed in a state in which the user does not succeed in authentication or does not enter the correct password) or in an off state (ie, a state in which the image unit is turned off). In particular, the terminal or app may display the unconfirmed icon badge or the (unconfirmed) designated icon badge in a locked state, or in an off state (except for display of daily data). Accordingly, the user can easily recognize the reception of unconfirmed unspecified content or unconfirmed specified content even in the off state or in the locked state.

The above-described daily data collectively refers to various types of information, and examples of the daily data are date and time. There are clocks, stopwatches, battery level, temperature, weather, wireless communication access, alarm availability, notification of the arrival of new mail or messages, incoming calls, or notification of an impending schedule. When the terminal displays the above-described daily data or other information on the image unit, in the present specification, when 80% or more of the pixels of the image unit are turned off, the image unit is considered to be turned off, that is, to be in an off state.

The terminal provides the above-described push notification, and may provide visual, audible, or tactile signals with this. In other words, the terminal provides various push notifications described in the three paragraphs above, and can notify the user of the reception of unconfirmed content by providing a visual, audible, or tactile signal. For example, the terminal may turn on an image unit or other output unit, emit a sound, or generate vibration as it receives unidentified content. In addition, the terminal may provide the above signal before, during or after providing the push notification to the user.

The push notification can generally be different depending on the purpose. Therefore, the details of the push notification may vary depending on the purpose of the notification as well as the characteristics of each app. Below is an example of the details of push notifications for different apps. However, the push notifications for a total of ten different apps have been exemplified below, but the examples below can be applied to other apps, and if desired, the above-described visual, audible, or tactile signal may be provided together with the push notification.

For example, in the case of "wired/wireless phone sending/receiving app", examples of "push notification" include [1] the number of incoming calls that the user did not answer, [2] the caller, the caller's phone number, or the call of the call in [1] of this paragraph. Information such as time, [3] the number of incoming calls that the user answered during (or after a specific time), [4] information such as the caller of the call in [3] of this paragraph, the caller's phone number or the time of the call, [5] Information such as the number of voice or text messages left to the user of [1] and [2] of this paragraph, [6] the caller of the message of [5] of this paragraph, the caller's telephone number, or the time the message was recorded. , Or [7] information such as the operating status or error status of wired/wireless telephone equipment. Or push notification is limited to [8] information in [1] to [7] of this paragraph or to unconfirmed information or contents that the recipient has not yet confirmed, or [9] to [1] to [7] of this paragraph. Among the information of [7] or content related thereto, all unconfirmed information or unconfirmed content received after a specific time may be related to confirmed information or confirmed content.

In this specification, a sender, a receiver, and a user each use their own portable data processing terminal, and are members of a specific group of a specific app mounted on the terminal. The "caller" of the present specification is one of the members of the group of the app, and the sender may be a user of the terminal of the present specification. In general, the sender sets all members of the group as recipients and sends [1] non-designated content to all members by sending a non-designated data packet, or [2] sending a designated data packet to the designated recipient. However, non-designated content can be sent to the remaining recipients of the group.

The "recipient" of the present specification is also one of the members of the group of the app, and the recipient may be a user of the terminal of the present specification. The receiver is generally a person who receives the content delivered by the sender along with the rest of the group. Recipients may be classified into "non-designated (or general) recipients" or "designated recipients" according to the characteristics of the received data packet or content.

In this specification, "non-designated (or general) recipient" is one of the recipients. The non-designated recipient can receive the non-designated data packet sent by the sender, and thus can receive the non-designated content. That is, the non-designated recipient can receive the non-designated data packet and the non-designated content sent by the sender under the same conditions as all members except for the designated recipient. Therefore, unless there is a conflicting description, all "non-designated recipients" of a specific group of a specific app are assumed to be the same as all "members" of the group of the app (except for designated recipients).

In this specification, "designated recipient" is one of recipients. The designated recipient can receive the designated data packet sent by the sender, and thus receive the designated content. For example, when a sender sends a designated data packet, the remaining members of the group receive a non-designated data packet that does not include a designated signal, but the designated recipient may receive a designated data packet including a designated signal. Accordingly, one or more recipients of "recipients", that is, one or more members of the members, may be "designated recipients" unless there is a conflicting description. However, in another example, when a sender sends a designated data packet, terminals of all members of the group may receive a designated data packet including a designated signal through a server or directly from a user terminal. The terminal or app of the designated recipient may check the designated signal that designates the recipient as the designated recipient in the designated data packet, and then display the contents included in the packet as designated contents on the video unit of the terminal. However, other members, that is, the terminal or the app of the non-designated recipient, may display the content as non-designated content on the video unit by checking the designated signal from the data packet and confirming that the designated signal does not designate the non-designated recipient.

In general, the present specification describes various configurations and an order of execution of a task when a sender or a terminal selects a single designated recipient. However, the various configurations and the order of operation execution in the present specification may be applied even when a sender or terminal selects a plurality of designated recipients. In addition, the present specification describes one of the two examples of the above sentence with respect to transmission or reception of a designated signal. However, the configuration of the terminal or the app for the two examples is the same or similar except for the difference between the two examples, so they may be compatible with each other.

In the present specification, "user" is one of the members of the group of the app, and is a sender or receiver. Unless otherwise stated to the contrary, when a user receives content from a sender, the user is either a "designated recipient" or a "non-designated recipient". That is, if the user is the recipient, as described below, the user may be only one of a designated recipient and a non-designated recipient according to the type or presence of a data packet or a designated signal.

In the present specification, in the expression that a user sends content to "all members" of a specific group, "all members" refers to all members of the group including the user. As a result, content created by the user himself can be displayed in the content window of the user terminal. However, the user terminal can display the user-generated content in the user's content window through various methods. The first way to do this is by outgoing indication. That is, if a user creates content and then sends it to the server or directly to the receiver's terminal, the user terminal can directly display the content just sent by the user in the content window. At this time, the server may transmit the content back to the user terminal, but may not transmit it. A second, different, method is the indication by reception. That is, when a user creates content and sends it to the server, the server sends the content to all members of the group including the user. Accordingly, after receiving the content, the user terminal may display it as "a kind of received content" in the content window.

Therefore, in this specification, the expression that the user sends the content to "all members" of a specific group means that the user sends the content to all members of the group including himself, but the user's terminal is the first in the above paragraph. Alternatively, it is assumed that the content can be displayed in the content window through the second method.

Unless there is a conflicting description, descriptions of various tasks performed by the terminal in the present specification will be described in terms of a "user". However, since the user may be the sender or the receiver, the description below can be interpreted from the perspective of the sender or receiver.

In the present specification, the type of "content" may be classified according to whether or not a specific recipient of a specific group of a specific app is designated as a "designated recipient".

In the present specification, "undesignated contents or unlabeled contents" refers to contents included in an undesignated data packet sent by a sender by setting all members of the group as "non-designated recipients" in the form of push information. Non-designated data packets do not contain "designated signals" and [1] contain words, texts, images, sounds, etc. that set all members of the group in the content, header or tail, or [2] designate specific members. It may be content that does not include words, texts, images, sounds, and the like. For reference, if the user is not the recipient of the designated content, the user is [1] the non-designated recipient of the non-designated content sent by the sender, or [2] the sender of the non-designated content. That is, the non-designated data packet including non-designated content includes a header, content, and tail, but [1] the header, content, or tail does not include a "designated signal", or [2] the data packet includes a "designated signal". It is not provided with any other data packets it contains.

In other words, "unspecified content" sent by a user is [1] content provided by the data packet does not contain a "designated signal" and the user sets all members of the group as recipients, or [2] the data packet is " Even if the user does not include "designated signal" and does not set all members of the group as recipients, the content is content including words, texts, images, sounds, etc. that mean all members of the group, or [3] data The packet does not include a "designation signal" and the user does not set all members of the group as recipients, but the content does not include words, texts, images, sounds, etc. that designate a specific member.

On the other hand, "non-designated content" received by a user does not include a "designated signal" in the data packet, [1] content provided by the sender setting all members of the group as recipients, [2] all members of the group by the sender Is not set as a recipient, but the content includes text, images, sounds, etc., meaning all members of the group, or [3] Although the sender did not set all members of the group as recipients, the content This content does not include the text, image, or sound that you specify.

In the present specification, "designated contents or labeled contents" means that the sender sets all members of a specific group as "non-designated recipients" in the form of push information, and at the same time, the sender directly creates the "designated contents" Refers to content included in a "designated data packet" that is sent by designating a member or a plurality of members as "designated recipients". Accordingly, the designated data packet includes content, header, tail, and "designated signal", but may include only one of a header or a tail. The sender of the designated content may [1] generate a designated signal by directly selecting a designated recipient, or [2] may select a "designated recipient" by directly generating a designated signal.

On the contrary, even if the sender of the designated content does not directly generate the designated signal, the terminal may generate the “designated signal” in advance. For example, when a sender sends the specified content by setting all members of the group as recipients, the sender who sends the content does not directly generate a "designated signal", but the content is [1] It may include a name, a name, or nickname, or [2] "designation request information" such as text, image, or sound indicating a specific member of the group. The terminal can check whether the "designation request information" is included using various existing information analysis algorithms, and when the terminal checks the designation request information included in the content, the terminal generates a "designation signal" and sends it to a data packet. Include in Accordingly, the terminal may generate the data packet as a “designated data packet”, and the content included in the packet is generated as a “designated content”.

Once the designated data packet is generated, the sender (or terminal) sends the designated content to the designated recipient and can emphasize to confirm the designated content, and the designated recipient can also easily grasp the designated content designated to the designated recipient. For reference, the user is [1] the sender of the specified content, [2] the "non-designated recipient" and not the "designated recipient" of the specified content, or [3] the "non-designated recipient" and the "designated recipient" of the specified content. I can. However, as described below, depending on the type of data packet or designated signal, the user may be "designated recipient" but not "non-designated recipient".

In other words, "designated content" sent by a user is [1] content provided by setting all members of a specific group as "non-designated recipients", and designating a specific member as "designated recipients", or [2] Without specifying a specific member as a "designated recipient", all members are set as "non-designated recipients", but the content includes "designated request information", or [3] a specific member of the group is "designated" The content may be provided without designating "recipient", but may be content that does not include characters, words, text, images, sounds, etc. that set all members as non-designated recipients.

In contrast, the "designated content" received by the user is [1] content that the sender sets all members as "non-designated recipients" while the sender directly designates the user as the "designated recipient" and sends, or [2] the sender Is a content that sets all members as "non-designated recipients" only and provides content without designating a specific member as "designated recipient", but includes "designated request information" in the content.

In the present specification, "partly designated contents or partly labeled contents" refers to contents that may not be designated contents and may not be non-designated contents when viewed in terms of recipient designation. For example, as an example of partially designated content viewed from the point of view of a sender of a specific group of a specific app, [1] the sender sets all members of the group as "non-designated recipients" and provides one or more members, but not all members. Contents provided by designating "recipient", [2] although the sender is not all members of the group, one or more members are set as "non-designated recipients", but a specific member among the "non-designated recipients" is designated as "designated recipients" And provided content, or [3] content provided by the sender by setting a number of members not all members of the group as "non-designated recipients", but specifying many members among "non-designated recipients" as "designated recipients" Means etc.

As another example, an example of partially designated content viewed from the point of view of a user of a specific group of a specific app is [1] a user sets all members of the group as "non-designated recipients" and sends them, but not all members of the group Contents sent by designating members of the group as "designated recipients", [2] Although the user is not all members of the above group, multiple members are set as "non-designated recipients" and provided, but a specific member among "non-designated recipients" is "designated" Content specified and provided as "recipient", or [3] Although not all members of the group, a user sets and provides multiple members as "non-designated recipients", but multiple members among "non-designated recipients" are selected as "designated recipients" It refers to content that is designated and provided.

This specification describes a case in which content is divided into designated content and non-designated content in the following description. Therefore, unless there is a conflicting description, in the description below, the above-described partially designated content may be generally regarded as designated content.

In the present specification, the type of "content" may be classified according to whether the recipient of a specific group of a specific app checks the received content. In the present specification, "unread contents" means that the sender of a specific group of a specific app sent the content to the receiver, but the receiver did not run the app after receiving the sender's content, so the receiver still checks Refers to content that was not available. That is, unconfirmed content is content provided to a recipient by a single or multiple senders, and "unconfirmed content" includes "0" or more "(unconfirmed) unspecified content" and "0" or more "(unconfirmed) specified content" can do.

On the other hand, "read contents" is a content in which a single or multiple senders of a specific group of a specific app send content to the receiver, and the receiver receives the sender's content and then runs the app to confirm the content. Refers to. Therefore, "confirmed content" includes "0" or more "(confirmed) unspecified content" and "0" or more "(confirmed) specified content".

In the present specification, "icon badge" refers to a badge indicating "push notification" related to push information received by a specific app mounted on a terminal. The icon badge may indicate the number or content of push information. For example, an icon badge is used to indicate the number of push information: [1] numbers, letters or figures, [2] numbers, font or thickness of letters or figures, [3] numbers, size, shape or background of letters or figures, [4] Position, arrangement, or orientation of numbers, letters or figures, or [5] colors, brightness, saturation, transparency, or brightness of numbers, letters, or figures can be manipulated.

Similarly, an icon badge is used to indicate the content or type of push information: [1] code numbers (for example, number 1 is text, number 2 is image, number 3 is sound, etc.) Font or weight of [3] code number, size, shape or background of characters or figures, [4] code number, position, arrangement or orientation of letters or figures, or [5] color of numbers, letters, or figures, You can manipulate brightness, saturation, or brightness.

In the present specification, the type of "content" may be classified according to whether the recipient of a specific group of a specific app checks the received content. In the present specification, "unconfirmed icon badge" refers to a badge that displays the number, type, or content of unidentified content of a specific app (or group), but unconfirmed content refers to a specific app or a specific group of single or multiple Although the sender sends the content to the receiver, the receiver has not run the app after receiving the sender's content, and thus refers to content that the receiver has not yet confirmed. The terminal may display an "unconfirmed icon badge" through various icon badge manipulation methods described above or below.

On the other hand, "confirmation icon badge" refers to a badge that displays the number, type, or content of the confirmed content of a specific app (or group), but the confirmation content refers to a specific app or a group of single or multiple senders to send the content to the recipient. After sending, the receiver refers to the content for which the content is checked by running the app after receiving the content of the sender. The confirmation icon badge [1] displays the number, type, and content of the content that the recipient has checked for a certain period, [2] displays the number, type, and content of the content that the recipient has confirmed among the contents sent by a specific sender, Alternatively, [3] the number, type, or content of the contents confirmed by the recipient among contents sent by a plurality of senders of a specific group may be displayed. The terminal may or may not display a confirmation icon badge. In addition, the terminal may display a "confirmation icon badge" through various icon badge manipulation methods described above or below.

In this specification, the type of "content" may be classified according to whether a sender of a specific group of a specific app creates or sends content and designates a recipient of the content. For example, in the present specification, the "non-designated icon badge" refers to a badge indicating the number, content, or type of "non-designated content" generated or sent by the sender without specifically designating the recipient. In contrast, the "designated icon badge" in the present specification refers to a badge indicating the number, content, type, and the like of "designated content" generated or sent by a sender or terminal by designating one or more recipients as designated recipients. The terminal may display a "non-designated icon badge" or a "designated icon badge" through the above-described various icon badge manipulation methods.

For reference, unless there is a conflicting description in the present specification, the "unspecified content" and "designated content" shall mean "unconfirmed unspecified content" and "unconfirmed specified content", respectively. In addition, unless there is a conflicting description, the "partially designated content" is also assumed to mean "unconfirmed partly designated content". Likewise, unless there is a conflicting description in the present specification, "unspecified icon badge" and "designated icon badge" also mean "unidentified unspecified icon badge" and "unidentified designated icon badge", respectively.

In the present specification, the term "user input" refers to various types of input directly or indirectly provided to the input unit by a user by directly or indirectly manipulating one or more portions of the input unit of the terminal. Users can provide user input in a variety of ways. For example, a user may [1] provide user input by using one or more body parts, or [2] provide user input by manipulating one or more non-user objects or simply "objects" (for example, a special fan, stylus, etc.) , [3] The user input can be provided by mechanical, electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic, or acoustic methods described below.

For convenience of explanation, the phrase "providing a user input" to one or more input units of the terminal means [1] the user provides the user input using one or more body parts of the terminal, or [2] the user provides the terminal Provides user input by manipulating one or more objects (ie, non-user objects) that can be recognized by various input units of the [3] terminal, or acquires the user's biometric information proactively (for example, while the user is not aware of it) Or [4] collectively refers to a terminal acquiring electromagnetic waves or sound waves associated with a user or non-user object.

In the present specification, "mechanical user input" is an input provided by a user by directly mechanically manipulating one or more portions of an input unit. Examples of mechanical user input are [1] "moving" of the part through manipulation of one or more parts of the input unit (for example, pressing up and down or left and right, pushing, pulling, turning, rotating around a central axis, and other methods. Movement, etc.), [2] "contact (or touch)" between the user part and the part of the input unit, or [3] a mixture of the movement and contact.

Another example of mechanical user input is "mechanical biometric information" of the user, and examples of the biometric information include blood pressure or heart rate measured at a specific site of the user, blood flow rate measured at a specific site, and other cardiac circulatory systems. Information, number of breaths during rest or exercise, respiratory flow rate, other respiratory information, and biological information related to muscles or skeletons.

The mechanical user input may be related to the static or dynamic characteristics of the mechanical user input described above. Examples of the mechanical user input include [1] the movement of a specific part of the input unit or the (scalar or vector) force associated with contact with the part, [2] the (scalar or vector) speed of the movement, and [3] the movement (Scalar or vector) acceleration of, [4] displacement (scalar or vector) by the motion, [5] direction of the force, velocity, acceleration or displacement, [6] direction of the contact, [7] in front of [ Period of 1] to [6], number of [1] to [6] before [8], temporal overlap between [1] to [6] before [9], or before [10] There is a temporal gap between [1] and [6] of [6].

The mechanical user input may also include a "mechanical characteristic" of a user's body part or object that provides the input to the part of the input unit. Examples of the user input include elasticity, roughness, and various modulus. Etc. For example, the magnitude or frequency of the force applied to the sensor of the input unit is an example of such an input.

In the present specification, "electrical user input" corresponds to an electrical signal provided to one or more portions of an input unit capable of receiving the input. For example, a user may [1] provide an electrical signal of direct current or alternating current to the input unit using a non-user object such as a specific pen, wearable device, or other mobile device, or [2] provide an electrical signal using another terminal. can do. The user can provide electrical biometric information of a body part as an electrical user input, and examples of the biometric information include an electrocardiogram (ECG), an electromyogram (EMG), an electroencephalogram (EEG), and other electrical signals measured at a specific body part. have.

Electrical user input may be related to the static or dynamic characteristics of the electrical input. Examples of such electrical user input are [1] current, [2] voltage, [3] power, [3] the magnitude (or amplitude) of [1] to [3] in front of [3], [5] their phase angle, [ 6] their phase delay, [7] their frequency, [8] their wavelength, or [9] their (scalar or vector) flux. Electrical user input may also include "electrical characteristics" of a body part or non-user object capable of providing user input to a suitable part of the input unit. Examples of such user input include electrical resistance and electrical conductivity of the part or object. , Capacitance, permittivity, thermoelectricity, dielectric properties, and the like, and the electrical properties can be measured in a static (or dynamic) electric or magnetic field. For example, a user fingerprint measured using a capacitive sensor of a capacitive input unit is also an electrical user input.

In the present specification, "magnetic user input" corresponds to a magnetic signal provided to one or more portions of an input unit capable of receiving the input. For example, a user may [1] provide a magnetic signal of direct current or alternating current to the input unit using a non-user object such as a specific pen, wearable device, or other mobile device, or [2] use the other terminal to provide the magnetic signal. Can provide a signal. The user may provide magnetic biometric information of body parts through magnetic user input, and examples of various biometric information include magnetic electrocardiogram (MCG, magnetocardiogram), magnetic electromyogram (MMG, magnetomyogram), and magnetic electroencephalogram (MEG). , And other magnetic signals measured in specific parts of the body.

Magnetic user input may also be related to the static or dynamic nature of the input. Examples of the magnetic user input include the magnitude or direction of the B-field or H-field, the magnetism or number of magnetic poles, phase angle, phase delay, frequency, wavelength, (scalar or vector) flow, and the like. Magnetic user input also includes “magnetic properties” of body parts or non-user objects used by the user to provide magnetic user input to one or more parts of the input unit. Examples of magnetic properties include There are magnetic polarity, magnetic permeability, magnetic susceptibility, and the like, and the characteristics can be measured in a static (or dynamic) magnetic field (or electric field).

Alternatively, as shown in [Fig. 6], the terminal may display an unconfirmed icon badge 21 and a designated icon badge 23 on the opposite side of the app icon 20, respectively. (21) and the designated icon badge 23 can be displayed on a different side, but not on the opposite side around the app icon 20.

At this time, the terminal may display at least one of the unidentified icon badge and the designated icon badge [1] to overlap the edge of the app icon, or [2] outside the app icon, that is, at a certain distance from the app icon. . In addition, the terminal displays designated icon badges and unidentified icon badges [1] overlapping at least part of each other, [2] not overlapping, but at least partly touching each other, or [3] distant from each other. I can.

The terminal of the second embodiment of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification may display one of an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge around the app icon while the other badge is displayed inside the app icon. [Fig. 8] is another example of the configuration and arrangement of an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge. That is, the terminal of [Fig. 8] displays an unconfirmed icon badge 21 around the app icon 20, but the designated icon badge 23 is displayed inside the app icon 20. Alternatively, the terminal may display an unidentified icon badge inside the app icon, and a designated icon badge around the app icon.

The terminal may display [1] all parts of one or more of the unidentified icon badge and the designated icon badge to be located inside the app icon, or [2] at least part of it. Alternatively, designated icon badges and unidentified icon badges may be [1] marked with at least a portion overlapping each other, [2] not overlapping with each other, but marked with at least a portion touching each other, or [3] marked to be separated by a certain distance from each other. have.

The terminal of the third embodiment of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification displays an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge together within the app icon. [Fig. 9] is another example of the configuration and arrangement of an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge. After dividing the inside of the app icon 20 up and down, the terminal displays an unconfirmed icon badge 21 at the bottom and a designated icon badge 23 at the top. Unlike [Fig. 9], the terminal displays [1] one of the unidentified icon badges and the designated icon badge so that the size of one badge is more than half the size of the app icon, or [2] the size of both badges is the same as the size of the app icon. It can be marked to be less than half. The terminal displays designated icon badges and unidentified icon badges as [1] overlapping at least part of each other, [2] indicating that they do not overlap but at least partly touch each other, or [3] to be isolated from each other at a certain distance. I can.

The terminal of the fourth embodiment of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification may display an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge completely overlapping, ie, one icon badge inside another icon badge. [Fig. 10] is another example of the configuration and arrangement of an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge, in which the terminal displays a designated icon badge 23 inside the unidentified icon badge 21, and the badges 21 and 23 are It is displayed around the app icon 20. In addition, in the terminal of [Fig. 10], all portions of the designated icon badge 23 are located inside the unidentified icon badge 21, and are displayed so as to contact the unidentified icon badge 21 from the top. Therefore, the centers of the badges 21 and 23 do not coincide with each other.

Alternatively, the terminal may display the unidentified icon badge and the designated icon badge in the form of a concentric circle or a concentric figure, so that the centers of the two badges coincide with each other. The terminal displays at least one of the unidentified icon badges and designated icon badges within the app icon [1], or [2] displays at least a portion of at least one badge outside the app icon, or [3] All parts of both badges can be displayed outside of the app icon. In addition, the terminal displays [1] at least part of the border of the designated icon badge and the unidentified icon badge so that they overlap each other, [2] the two badges do not overlap each other, but at least part contact each other, or [3] two badges Can be marked to be isolated at a distance from each other.

The terminal of the fifth embodiment of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification displays an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge in isolation from the app icon by a predetermined distance. [Fig. 11] is another example of the configuration and arrangement of the unconfirmed icon badge and the designated icon badge. In the terminal, the unconfirmed icon badge 21 is displayed around the app icon 20, but the designated icon badge 23 is a certain distance. This is the case of displaying in isolation. At this time, the terminal can display the designated icon badge 23 at a specific location, such as the top, bottom, right or left of the video unit. When multiple apps are installed in the terminal, the terminal is a designated icon for multiple apps. You can collect all of the badges and display them at a specific location on the video unit. Accordingly, the user can easily check which app has received unconfirmed designated content by checking a plurality of designated icon badges collected and displayed at a specific location of the video unit.

The terminal displays designated icon badges around or inside the app icon, while [1] unidentified icon badges for multiple (or all) apps are collectively displayed, or [2] unspecified icon badges for multiple (or all) apps Can be displayed separately. Alternatively, the terminal may collect unidentified icon badges of a plurality of apps and display them on a specific portion of the video unit, while collecting designation icon badges for the apps and display them on other portions of the video unit.

Various terminals, designated content, or designated icon badges of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, and the modification or improvement is [1] applied to the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the first exemplary aspect, or [2] the detailed or later description of the present specification. It can be applied to different exemplary aspects of the above, modifications or improvements of the embodiments or detailed examples of the different aspects.

A first detailed example of a modification or improvement of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to the use of an unspecified icon badge instead of an unidentified icon badge. In other words, instead of displaying a designated icon badge and an unidentified icon badge indicating the number or contents of the designated content included in the unconfirmed content together on the video unit, a non-designated icon badge indicating the number or contents of the unspecified content included in the unconfirmed content and designation Icon badges can be displayed together on the video unit. In this case, the sum of the number of designated icon badges and the number of non-designated icon badges may be the same as the number of unconfirmed icon badges.

A second detailed example of modification or improvement of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification is to display the content or type of the unconfirmed specified content with the number of unconfirmed specified content or instead of the number of unconfirmed specified content with a specified icon badge. In general, the content of the content refers to information of the sender of the content (for example, name, nickname, ID, etc.), other information of the sender (for example, position, affiliation, gender, age, nationality, physical characteristics, personal information, etc.), and the above Other information of the content (e.g. the size of the content, creation date, delivery date, storage location, etc.), the importance of the content from the point of view of the sender or receiver (e.g. very important, important, slightly important, not important, or spam) Etc. In general, the type of content is information related to the format of the content. For example, data, text in the form of a file or folder, symbols, numbers, figures, static images, dynamic images (for example, videos, video clips, etc.), sounds, etc. have.

A third detailed example of a modification or improvement of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to the display of an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge. For example, a terminal may display [1] an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge at the same time in time, [2] an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge in sequential order, or [3] an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge. However, it can be displayed sequentially, so that there is a temporal gap or a temporal overlap between each other.

Alternatively, the terminal may display an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge for different periods of time. For example, when the user places importance on the number of specified content, the terminal [1] keeps displaying the specified icon badge, but displays the unconfirmed icon badge blinking, or [2] blinks both the specified icon badge and the unconfirmed icon badge. You can display the specified icon badges faster (or later), but display the specified icon badges flashing faster (or later), or [3] the unidentified icon badges will continue to be displayed, but the specified icon badges may be displayed in a flashing manner that is more visible to the user. have.

A fourth detail of a variation or refinement of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a combination of the first to fourth embodiments of the first exemplary aspect and various details of a variation or refinement of that aspect. For example, the terminal indicates the number of unconfirmed specified content by using a specified icon badge, but when a user applies an additional user input, content related to the unconfirmed specified content may be displayed.

A second exemplary aspect of the present specification is to simultaneously display an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge even when the unidentified content does not include the designated content. For example, the terminal may display an unconfirmed icon badge for unconfirmed content and a specified icon badge for specified content, even if the unconfirmed content does not include unconfirmed specified content. That is, the terminal can easily inform the user that there is no designated content included in the unconfirmed content through various configurations and methods.

For example, the terminal indicates the number of unconfirmed content by the number of the unconfirmed icon badge, but the number of the designated icon badge indicates that the number of the specified content is "0" in various ways. Accordingly, the terminal displays the number of the unidentified icon badge and the number of the designated icon badge [1] to have the same or similar font, size, thickness, shape, color, background, or orientation, or [2] a different font, size, or It can be marked to have thickness, shape, color, background, or orientation.

In addition, as in the first aspect of the above, the terminal has a designated icon badge [1] right or left, [2] top or bottom, [3] inside or outside, or [4] line symmetric, point symmetric, or asymmetric of the unidentified icon badge. Can be displayed according to the arrangement of. At this time, the terminal displays designated icon badges and unidentified icon badges [1] overlapping at least part of each other, [2] indicating that they do not overlap with each other, but at least partly in contact with each other, or [3] to be separated by a certain distance from each other can do.

Accordingly, the user can easily recognize that there is no unconfirmed designated content included in the unconfirmed content of a specific app. Therefore, the user may not run the app and may not check the unconfirmed content, or otherwise, the user may run the app to check the unconfirmed and unspecified content. 12 to 19 are examples of the configuration and arrangement of an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge when the specified content is not included among the unconfirmed content.

The terminal of the first embodiment of the second exemplary aspect of the present specification displays the number of the designated icon badge as "0" when there is no unidentified designated content included in the unidentified content, and the number is an unidentified icon badge for the unidentified content. Can be displayed with. 12 to 14 are examples of the configuration and arrangement of the unconfirmed icon badge and the designated icon badge when the specified content is not included among the unconfirmed content, and the terminal includes various embodiments or detailed examples of the first exemplary aspect ( That is, by displaying the number "0" on various designated icon badges illustrated in [Figs. 5] to [11]), it is possible to visually display that there is no unconfirmed designated content to the user. For example, [Fig. 12] shows the number "0" on the designated icon badge of [Fig. 5], [Fig. 13] shows the number "0" on the designation icon badge of [Fig. 9], and [Fig. 14] shows [Fig. This is the case where the number "0" is displayed on the designated icon badge of [10].

The terminal can display the number "0" in a variety of ways. For example, in order to emphasize that the number of (unconfirmed) designated content included in the unconfirmed content is "0", the terminal is configured with a larger, brighter, or darker "0" compared to the unconfirmed icon badge or the number of the badge. Or [2] rotate the number "0" (about a specific axis), shake it (up/down or left/right), or move it in some other way, or [3] change the size of the number "0". Or [4] change the shape of the number "0", [5] change the color, brightness, or transparency of the number "0", or [6] a specific part, border, or background of the number "0" Can also be manipulated by the method [1] to [3] in this paragraph. Alternatively, since the specified content is not included in the unconfirmed content, the terminal sets the number "0" to be smaller, darker, or more open compared to the unidentified icon badge or the number of the badge in order to emphasize that there is no content to be urgently checked by the user. It may be displayed in a configuration that is not emphasized in a different way or in other ways.

The terminal of the second embodiment of the second exemplary aspect of the present specification displays a designated icon badge when there is no unidentified designated content included in the unidentified content, but without displaying a number on the badge, and an unidentified icon for the unidentified content. It can be marked with a badge. To this end, the terminal displays various designated icon badges exemplified in various embodiments or detailed examples (ie, including [Fig. 5] to [Fig. 11]) of the first exemplary aspect, but displays the shape of the designated icon badge, but Or, you can not display any numbers around it. [Fig. 15] is a configuration and method of a designated icon badge according to the embodiment of [Fig. 5], and the terminal of [Fig. 15] has an unidentified icon badge 21 on the lower right of the app icon 20, and the upper right In this case, the designated icon badge 23 is displayed, but "0" or any number is not displayed inside or around the designated icon badge 23.

Terminals may use different configurations or arrangements to emphasize differently that the unidentified content does not include the unidentified designated content. For example, the terminal may display a designated icon badge in which a number indicating the number of designated contents is not displayed, but the designated icon badge may be displayed differently from a designated icon badge when at least one designated content is included. [Fig. 16] and [Fig. 17] are other examples of the configuration and arrangement of an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge when the specified content is not included in the unconfirmed content.

As an example, [Fig. 16] is an example of a designated icon badge emphasizing that designated contents are not included in unconfirmed contents. For example, the terminal displays the designated icon badge 23 on the upper right of the app icon 20, but the designated icon badge 23 does not display any number, and the border may be highlighted with a dotted line. [FIG. 17] As an example of a designated icon badge that emphasizes that the designated content is not included in the unconfirmed content, the terminal unconfirmed icon badge 21 is displayed in the lower part of the app icon 20, and the designated icon badge 23 ) Is displayed at the top of the inside of the app icon 20, but the designated icon badge 23 does not display any number, and can be displayed by highlighting the border with a dotted line.

The terminal of the third embodiment of the second exemplary aspect of the present specification omits the designated icon badge or does not display a number on the badge when there is no unconfirmed designated content included in the unconfirmed content, and the unconfirmed content is unconfirmed. It can be displayed with an icon badge. [Fig. 18] and [Fig. 19] are another example of the configuration and arrangement of an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge when a designated content is not included among the unconfirmed contents. As an example, the terminal displays an unconfirmed icon badge according to various embodiments or detailed examples (ie, including [Fig. 5] to [Fig. 11]) of the first exemplary aspect, but the terminal of [Fig. 18] has [Fig. 5] to [ Unlike the configuration of Fig. 8], the designated icon badge may be omitted, or the terminal of [Fig. 19] may omit the designated icon badge unlike the configuration of [Fig. 10].

The terminal of the third embodiment of the second exemplary aspect described above may display designated content (unconfirmed) by modifying or improving the above example. For example, the terminal may display an unconfirmed icon badge, but the designated icon badge may be displayed lightly or weakly to inform the user that the unconfirmed content does not include the specified content. However, the more strongly the designated icon badge is displayed, that is, the easier it is recognized by the user, the more similar the configuration may be to the second embodiment of the second exemplary aspect. Alternatively, the terminal may change the configuration or arrangement of the displayed unconfirmed icon badge to inform the user that the display of the designated icon badge has been omitted. However, the stronger such deformation becomes, that is, as the user easily recognizes it, the configuration may become similar to the third embodiment described below in the second exemplary aspect.

Various terminals, designated content, or designated icon badges of the second exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, and the modification or improvement is applied to [1] the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the second exemplary aspect, or [2] the above or the following description of the present specification. It can be applied to different exemplary aspects of the above, modifications or improvements of the embodiments or detailed examples of the different aspects.

The first detailed example of modification or improvement of the second exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method capable of emphasizing that the specified content is not included in the unconfirmed content. As an example, the terminal displays a thicker, brighter, darker, or other emphasizing configuration of the badge border of the designated icon compared to the [1] unconfirmed icon badge border, or [2] the unidentified content does not contain the specified content. In order to emphasize that there is no content that the user urgently needs to check, the edge of the designated icon badge is displayed in a thinner, lighter, lighter, or other non-emphasized configuration, or [3] other configurations or methods, etc. Using this, a designated icon badge that does not include the designated content may be displayed differently from a designated icon badge that includes the designated content.

A second detailed example of modification or improvement of the second exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for a user to check an app that does not include specified content in the unconfirmed content. For example, when the terminal's image unit is turned off (ie, "off state") or the terminal displays a lock screen on the image unit (ie, "on state", but the screen displayed on the image unit before user authentication), the terminal is [ 1] All app icons for an app including one or more unverified content may be displayed, or [2] an app icon for an app including one or more unverified specified content may be displayed. However, the terminal may not display an app icon for an app that includes unconfirmed content but does not include unconfirmed specified content on the video unit.

A third exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for displaying both an unidentified content unidentified icon badge and a hindrance icon badge for designated content as a single icon badge. In particular, by displaying a single icon badge differently when the unconfirmed content includes and does not include the specified content, a single icon badge can display both when a specific icon includes or does not include the specified content. It is about the composition and method. In other words, the terminal displays only the unconfirmed icon badge without displaying the designated icon badge, but when the unconfirmed content contains and does not contain the specified content, the unconfirmed icon badge is displayed differently, thereby displaying a single unconfirmed icon badge. It can be used as an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge.

As an example, the terminal displays various unidentified icon badges illustrated in various embodiments and detailed examples (ie, including [Figs. 5] to [Fig. 11]) of the first exemplary aspect described above, but [Figs. 5] to [ Although the designated icon badge of Fig. 11] is not displayed, only the unconfirmed icon badge can be used to display the unconfirmed icon badge and the designated icon badge. Therefore, the user can visually easily check whether the specified content is included in the unconfirmed content. For convenience of explanation, only in this third exemplary aspect, the icon badge for unconfirmed content not including the specified content is referred to as "unconfirmed icon badge", but the unconfirmed icon badge for unconfirmed content including the specified content is It will be referred to as "designated icon badge".

Therefore, if the unconfirmed content does not include the specified content, the terminal of this exemplary aspect displays the unconfirmed icon badge in the same manner as the unconfirmed icon badges of [Figs. 5] to [19]. However, when the unconfirmed content includes the specified content, the terminal may use the unconfirmed icon badge as the specified icon badge by modifying the unconfirmed icon badge. For example, if the unconfirmed content includes the specified content, the terminal [1] displays the badge as a specified icon badge by changing the font, size, thickness, shape, color, or background of the unconfirmed icon badge, or [2] ] By changing the position and orientation of the unconfirmed icon badge, the badge can be displayed as a designated icon badge.

In particular, if the unconfirmed content includes the specified content, the terminal [1] displays the badge as a specified icon arrangement by moving the unconfirmed icon badge to the right or left or top or bottom of the image unit, or [2] the unconfirmed icon badge. It is possible to display the badge as a designated icon badge by moving to line symmetric, point symmetric, asymmetric, or the like. When the unconfirmed content includes the designated content, the terminal may display the badge as a designated icon badge by highlighting the unconfirmed icon badge or the number of the badge. For example, the terminal may [1] rotate an unidentified icon badge or a number of the badges (about a specific axis), shake it (up/down or left/right), or move through other methods, [2] an unidentified icon badge or The badge may be displayed as a designated icon badge by changing the size or shape of the number of the badge, or [3] changing the unidentified icon badge or the color and brightness of the number of the badge.

[Fig. 20] to [Fig. 23] are examples of the configuration and arrangement in the case of using the changed unconfirmed icon badge as a designated icon badge by changing various characteristics of the unconfirmed icon badge or by changing the position at which the badge is displayed.

In the case of the first embodiment of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification, when the unconfirmed content does not include the specified content and when the unidentified content includes more than one specified content, by differently manipulating the size of a single icon badge, the single The icon badge of can be displayed as an unconfirmed icon badge as well as a designated icon badge. [Fig. 20] is an example of the configuration and arrangement of using an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge by manipulating the size of the icon badge. That is, when the unconfirmed content does not include the specified content, the terminal displays the icon badge small as shown in panel (A) of [Fig. 20], so that the badge does not include the specified content (or the number of unconfirmed content). It can be indicated that it is an unidentified icon badge 21 for. However, if the unconfirmed content includes one or more specified content, the terminal displays the icon badge larger than the icon badge of panel (A), so that the icon badge is a designated icon for the number of unidentified content including the specified content or the number of specified content. It can be indicated that it is a badge 23.

Alternatively, the terminal displays the designated icon badge (23) larger than the unconfirmed icon badge (21) as shown in panel (B) of [Fig. 20], or [2] the size of the icon badge is the same, but the designated icon badge ( The number of 23) can be displayed larger than the number of the unconfirmed icon badge 21. Alternatively, the terminal may be used regardless of the size of the icon badge or the number of the badges, [1] the color, transparency, shape, or background of the badges 21 and 23, and [2] the borders of the badges 21 and 23. The same or similar icon badge by manipulating the color, transparency, shape, or thickness of, or [3] the font, thickness, color, transparency, or shape of the numbers of the badges 21, 23, etc., as the case may be, an unidentified icon It can be used as a badge (21) and a designated icon badge (23).

When a terminal manipulates the characteristics of a single icon badge and uses it as an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge, a user unfamiliar with this may confuse which badge the badge represents. To avoid such confusion, the terminal may display an icon badge by adding a "reference mark". For example, when a terminal uses an icon badge as a designated (or unconfirmed) icon badge, the terminal may display a size or position to the user when the icon badge is used as an unidentified (or designated) icon badge. As an example, the terminal of [Fig. 20] displays a single icon as a designated icon badge 23, but displays a reference mark (23N) for the size of the unconfirmed icon badge 21 in the badge 23 together. . Accordingly, the terminal displays only a single icon badge on the image unit, but the user can easily compare whether the badge is displayed as an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge by comparing the size or position of the badge.

The terminal of the second embodiment of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification includes various characteristics of a single icon badge, particularly when the unidentified content does not include the specified content and when it includes more than one specified content, in particular the outside or outside of the badge. By differently manipulating the size of the frame portion, a single icon badge can be displayed as an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge. [Fig. 21] is an illustration of a configuration and method for differently displaying the single icon badge as an unconfirmed icon badge or a designated icon badge by manipulating the characteristics of the frame of a single icon badge. For example, when the unconfirmed content does not include the specified content, the terminal displays only a single icon badge as shown in panel (A) of [Fig. 21], so that the badge does not include the specified content (or unconfirmed content). It indicates that it is an unidentified icon badge 21 indicating the number (number). However, if the unconfirmed content includes more than one designated content, the terminal displays a single icon badge on the panel (A) with a border, so that the badge is an unidentified content including the designated content or a designated icon for the number of designated content. It can be indicated that it is a badge 23.

From this point of view, the single icon badge of panel (A) of [Fig. 21] is an unidentified icon badge 23 in a circle shape, whereas the single icon badge of panel (B) is a ring shape on a single icon badge. The border of can be regarded as a designated icon badge 23 added to the edge or outside. Alternatively, the frame of the panel (B) of [Fig. 21] can be regarded as a designated icon badge 23, and in this case, a single icon badge can be regarded as an unconfirmed icon badge 21. In this case, the border may be displayed to contact the edge of the unidentified icon badge 21, or may be displayed to be isolated from the edge at a predetermined interval.

The terminal of the third embodiment of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification displays only a single icon badge, but the icon badge when the unconfirmed content does not include the specified content and the icon badge when the unidentified content includes one or more specified content is an image. By differently manipulating the positions displayed on the unit, a single icon badge can be used as an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge. [Fig. 22] is an illustration of a configuration and method in which a terminal manipulates a position at which a single icon badge is displayed on an image unit, and uses the badge as an unconfirmed icon badge and a designated icon badge. For example, if the unconfirmed content does not include the designated content, the terminal may display the badge as an unconfirmed icon badge 21 by displaying the single badge on the lower right of the app icon 20 as in panel (a). have. However, if the unconfirmed content includes the designated content, the terminal may share the badge as a designated icon badge 23 by displaying the badge at a different location like panel (b).

When the terminal displays a single badge as an unconfirmed icon badge (21) or a designated icon badge (23), the designated icon badge (23) and the unconfirmed icon badge ( 21) can be marked to have different characteristics. As an example, the terminal of the fourth embodiment of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification may display only the numbers added to the icon badge, instead of displaying an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge on the image unit. As an example, the terminal replaces the unconfirmed icon badge and the designated icon badge by displaying only a single number representing the number of unconfirmed content or the number of specified content on the video unit. As an example, [Fig. 23] is an example of a configuration and method in which a single badge is shared as an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge by displaying the number of a single icon badge on an image unit in different sizes. That is, when the specified content is not included in the unconfirmed content, the terminal displays a single number 21 at the lower part of the app icon 20 as shown in panel (a) of [Fig. 23], so that the number is displayed on the unconfirmed icon badge. It can also be used as (21). However, when the specified content is included in the unconfirmed content, the terminal manipulates one or more characteristics of a single number 21 as shown in panel (a) of [Fig. 23] (for example, by displaying a single number larger, or By displaying a single number in the center of the app icon 20), the number can be used as an unidentified designated icon badge 23.

The terminal displays the number (23) corresponding to the designated icon badge to have a different shape, color, background, etc. than the number (21) corresponding to the [1] unidentified icon badge, or [2] the unidentified icon badge. It may be displayed to have a different position or a different orientation than the number 21. The terminal is configured with various differences between the location of the unidentified icon badge 21 (or the number added to the badge) and the location of the designated icon badge 23 (or the number added to the badge) (for example, the difference in distance or difference in angle). ) Can be displayed in proportion to the number of designated content included in the unconfirmed content. Alternatively, when displaying the designated icon badge 23, the terminal may also display a reference mark 23N indicating various characteristics such as the original position or size of the unidentified icon badge 21 around or inside the app icon 20. have.

In addition, in order to emphasize the difference between the number (23) representing the designated icon badge and the number (21) representing the unidentified icon badge, [1] one number is replaced with a different font, size, thickness, color, transparency, or shape. It can be marked to have a [2] or [2] one number can be displayed in a different position from the other.

Various terminals, designated content, or designated icon badges of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, and the modification or improvement is applied to [1] the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the third exemplary aspect, or [2] the detailed or the following description of the present specification. It can be applied to different exemplary aspects of the above, modifications or improvements of the embodiments or detailed examples of the different aspects.

The first detailed example of a modification or improvement of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for emphasizing the number corresponding to the designated (or unconfirmed) icon badge so that the user can easily identify the number displaying the designated icon badge. About. For example, if the unconfirmed content does not include the specified content, the terminal [1] rotates the number around a specific axis, shakes it up and down or left and right, or moves it in other ways, [2] the size of the number Change, change the shape, [3] change the size, color, thickness, or brightness of the number, [4] change the transparency of the number, or [5] the entire number of the number , A specific part, border, or background can be manipulated by the methods [1] to [4] in this paragraph. The terminal may display the above-described reference mark 23N together, thereby allowing the user to compare the number and the reference mark 23N.

A second detailed example of a modification or improvement of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification is whether a single number represents the characteristic of the specified icon badge (i.e. the number or content of the specified content) by changing the characteristics of the app icon, or It relates to a configuration and method for allowing a user to easily recognize whether to display the characteristics of unconfirmed content. For example, the terminal displays only a single number inside or around the app icon. [1] Which icon badge is displayed by manipulating the size, shape, and color of the app icon, or [2] By displaying letters or symbols together inside or around them, it is possible for a user to easily check which icon badge the number displays based on the letter or symbol.

A third detailed example of modification or improvement of the third exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for displaying characteristics of a designated icon badge and an unidentified icon badge using a plurality of numbers, letters, symbols, and the like. As an example, the terminal displays a number such as "23/127" or "23:127" as in the embodiment and detailed example of the third exemplary aspect, so that a total of 127 unconfirmed contents are stored in a specific app or a specific group of the app. Among them, 23 can be indicated as (unconfirmed) designated content.

The first, second and third exemplary aspects illustrated in "1. Displaying a Designated Icon Badge and Unconfirmed Icon Badge" described above, and each embodiment or detailed example of the aspect may be compatible with each other. In other words, a particular aspect, a particular embodiment or a particular detail, unless conflicting with each other, [1] applies to a corresponding feature of a different aspect, a different embodiment, or a different detail, [2] is included in the corresponding feature, or , [3] may be substituted for the corresponding property, [4] may be replaced by the corresponding property, or [5] may be mixed with the corresponding property.

2 . Creation of custom content from the user's point of view

Various data processing terminals of the present specification can send and receive various contents in various forms. That is, when a user creates a specific content and the terminal generates a "designated data packet" by including the content and the "designated signal" in a specific data packet, in this specification, the terminal "generates the content as "designated content" "I did" or "converted". However, when the terminal generates an unspecified data packet that includes the content but does not include a "designated signal", in this specification, it is decided that the terminal "generated" or "converted" the content to "non-designated content". do.

In the present specification, a user or a terminal may generate a "designated signal" in various ways. For example, a user who runs a specific app and belongs to a specific group of the app may designate one or more members of the group as designated recipients before, during, or after content creation. For example, the user may select [1] a designated recipient manually by manipulating the member icon or member U/I of the member displayed in the content window where multiple members exchange content, or [2] the member in the group window or the content window. You can manually select a designated recipient by calling the list. In this specification, such a configuration or method is described as [1] as the user manually selects one or more designated recipients, the user directly generates a "designated signal", or [2] a terminal based on the user's selection of a designated recipient. It is expressed that this indirectly generates a "designated signal", and in this specification, [1] and [2] in this sentence are used as the same meaning.

In contrast, a user who runs a specific app and belongs to a specific group of the app may not designate any member of the group as a designated recipient before, during, or after content creation. However, the content created by the user includes [1] name, [2] name, [3] nickname, or [4] character, text, sound, or image, and each of [1] to [4] in this sentence is It may include "designation request information" such as referring to one or more specific members of a specific group of a specific app or all groups of a specific app. In this case, the terminal analyzes the content using various existing information analysis algorithms, and then designates one or more members of the group or multiple groups of the app as designated recipients based on the analysis, and corresponds to the designated recipient. It is possible to create a "designated signal".

For example, a terminal is used for [1] analysis algorithms such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning, [2] analysis algorithms for natural language processing, [3] analysis algorithms such as big data, or [4] other text analysis algorithms or speech. Analysis algorithms and the like can be used. In this specification, such a configuration or method is expressed as [1] that the terminal actively selects one or more designated recipients, and that the terminal directly generates a "designated signal", or [2] is included in the content created by the user, or It is expressed that the user indirectly generates a "designated signal" by manipulating the terminal by using the "designation request information" included in the unconfirmed content received. In this specification, [1] and [2] in this sentence are the same. I will use it as a meaning.

A fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to various configurations and methods in which a user selects a designated recipient, generates a designated signal, and generates designated content using a group window or a content window.

A user who runs a specific app and belongs to a specific group can select a designated recipient from among a number of groups displayed in the group window before moving to the content window of the specific group. For example, a user running an app in the group window 15 illustrated in [Fig. 3] may touch or press [1] a member ID, member U/I (17), or [2] a keyboard in the form of a hard button. One or more specific members can be selected as designated recipients by operating a keyboard in the form of a soft button (hereinafter abbreviated as "hard keyboard") or a keyboard in the form of a soft button (hereinafter abbreviated as "soft keyboard"), or by operating [3] other input units. . When the terminal displays a plurality of group windows 15 on the video unit, the user selects a specific group window 15 from among the plurality of group windows, selects a specific group from among the plurality of groups displayed in the selected group window, and After displaying the content window 19 of the group, a specific member may be selected as a designated recipient by providing a user input to the ID or U/I of a specific member displayed on the content window 19 after that.

On the contrary, by providing an acoustic user input such as voice to an input unit such as a microphone, the user is provided with at least one of a plurality of member IDs or member U/I 17 displayed in the group window 15 or the content window 19. You can select the member corresponding to the designated recipient. Alternatively, the terminal may acquire an image of the user's retina, iris, other eyes, or face, and then extract an electromagnetic user input from the image, thereby selecting one or more members of the group as designated recipients indirectly or in advance. For example, the terminal may analyze a line of sight of a user looking at the group window 15 or the content window 19, and select a specific member corresponding thereto as a designated recipient.

As described above, a user who runs a specific app and belongs to a specific group may select one or more members of the group as designated recipients, or select a plurality of members of a plurality of groups as recipients. However, for convenience of explanation, in the fourth exemplary aspect to be described below, a configuration and a method for a case where a user or a content sender selects a single member as a designated recipient will be mainly described. However, the configurations and methods of different aspects of the present specification as well as various embodiments or detailed examples of the fourth exemplary aspect described below may be equally applied even when a user or a terminal selects a plurality of members as designated users. The reason is that the configuration or method of selecting a plurality of members as designated recipients can be achieved by simultaneously or sequentially repeating the process of selecting a single member as designated recipients. [Fig. 24] to [Fig. 27] are examples of configurations and methods in which a user directly manipulates a hard keyboard, a soft keyboard, other input units, or video units to select a designated recipient.

The first embodiment of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example of a configuration of a terminal and a method of performing a task in which a user directly manipulates various hardware elements of the terminal to select a designated recipient. In particular, [FIG. 24] and [FIG. 25] show the contents by providing user input by a method such as a user manipulating a hard keyboard, a soft keyboard, an input unit, or the like, or a user directly touching an image unit in the form of a touch screen. This is an example of the configuration and method of selecting a designated recipient in the window.

As shown in Fig. 24, the terminal 10 includes various hardware elements and various software elements. Examples of hardware elements include an image unit 11, which is one of the output units, one or more input units 12A, 12B, and 12C in the form of a hard button (however, if the image unit is a touch screen, the input unit in the form of a hard button is a soft button. Type input unit), other transmission units mounted inside the terminal 10, receiving units, control units, output units (speakers, etc.), storage units, and the like.

Examples of the software elements of the terminal 10 include an input window 14, a content window 19, and a soft keyboard 13 (however, if the terminal includes a hard button type keyboard, a soft button type keyboard may not be necessary. Yes), soft arrow key (13A) (However, if the terminal includes a hard button type arrow key, the soft button type arrow key may not be necessary), soft send button (or send U/I) (13S) ( However, if a user can transmit a data packet using an input unit in the form of a hard button, or if the terminal includes a transmit button in the form of a hard button, a transmit button in the form of a soft button may not be necessary).

In addition, examples of the software elements include an operating system (O/S) of the terminal 10, a plurality of apps mounted on the terminal 10, computer commands related to or separate from the operating system, a computer program, and a set of computer programs. Etc. However, as described above, when an operating system, an app, a command, a program, etc. executes a specific task, it is collectively referred to as "the terminal executes a specific task" in this specification.

As shown in FIG. 24, the content window 19 may display various types of information. For example, the content window 19 is [1] member icon (or member U/I) of a member belonging to a specific group (32), [2] content sent by the member (that is, unspecified sent to all members of the group) Contents and designated content sent to a specific member), [3] An input window that allows users to create content (14), [4] Send content button (or send content U/I) (13S), [5] When the image unit 11 is in the form of a touch screen, a soft keyboard 13 or an arrow key 13A may be displayed. For convenience of explanation, detailed information such as the time at which each content was received is not displayed in [Fig. 24].

Users can create content in a variety of ways. For example, a user may [1] generate contents by manipulating the soft keyboard or hard keyboard 13, [2] create contents by manipulating the arrow keys 13A, or [3] You can create content by attaching files or folders. The content generated by the user is displayed in the input window 14, and thus [1] the user can easily check the content being generated or already generated, or [2] easily error in the content generated by the user. Can be modified.

In the input window 14, the user may select one or more members of the plurality of members of the group as designated recipients through various methods before, during, or after creating the content. To this end, the user selects a specific member as the designated recipient by pressing or touching [1] the member ID (or member U/I)(17), or [2] by operating the hard keyboard or soft keyboard to designate a specific member. A specific member can be selected as the designated recipient by selecting with or by operating [3] other input units.

As an example, in [Fig. 24], when a user touches or presses the icon (or U/I) 32 of "Pak", which is the third member from the top of the members displayed in the content window 19, the terminal is "Pak". Is designated as the designated recipient of the content. As shown in [Fig. 25], the terminal 10 can highlight the icon (or U/I) 32 of "Park" as shown in (33), and accordingly, the selected member Recognition can be easily confirmed.

The terminal 10 of [Fig. 24] and [Fig. 25] displays member IDs 17 or icons 32 of various members in the content window 19. In particular, the terminal 10 displays the content according to the reception time, but may display the content most recently received from another member or the content sent by the user directly above the input window 14. Accordingly, the content displayed at the bottom of the content window 19 may mean content that has been received or sent more recently than the content displayed above.

Therefore, when a user tries to select a specific member as a designated recipient, if there is no content recently sent by the member, the member's ID 17 or icon 32 may not be displayed in the content window 19, and thus Accordingly, the user cannot easily select the member. In order to prevent such inconvenience, the terminal 10 may allow the user to scroll up and down the content window 19 to select a designated recipient before, during, or after creating the content. Alternatively, as will be described below, the user can select a designated recipient without scrolling the content window 19 by providing an acoustic user input or an electromagnetic user input.

For reference, when the terminal 10 displays unconfirmed content on the content window 19, the terminal 10 may display the first content not confirmed by the user on the image unit 11 for convenience of the user. Therefore, in this case, the content displayed directly above the input window 14 may not be the unconfirmed content most recently received by the terminal 10.

When the user finishes manipulating the member icon (or U/I) 32, the terminal 10 generates a "designation signal" indicating the recipient selected and designated by the operation. That is, the designation signal can be regarded as a signal indicating which member of the members of a specific group is the designated recipient. For example, the designation signal may be constructed in the form of a matrix or database, or may be generated in the form of an element of the matrix or database. Thereafter, the terminal 10 may generate a "designated data packet" including content generated by the user, a "designated signal" generated by the user, and a header or tail. When the user completes the selection of the designated recipient after completing the content creation, or when the user completes the selection of the designated recipient and completes the creation of the content, the user presses or contacts the send button (or U/I) (13S). Contents can be sent out in such a way as to.

When the user manipulates the send button (or U/I) 13S to send the content created by the user, the terminal 10 transmits a specified data packet including the specified content to the (central or location) server, Upon receiving this, the server may send a designated data packet to all members of the group, or to a plurality of members other than all of the members. In addition, when the user presses the transmit button 13S, the terminal 10 may request the user to confirm whether to send or not. For example, the terminal 10 may request confirmation that the member selected by the user is the designated recipient. When the user confirms that the member selected by the user is the designated recipient, the terminal 10 transmits a designated data packet. However, if the user denies the confirmation, the terminal 10 may stop sending, request the user to select a designated recipient again, or send the content as non-designated content.

The receiver's terminal, which receives the user's content in the form of a designated data packet, extracts the content and the designated signal from the packet. As a result of checking the designated signal, if the receiver is the designated receiver (ie, the designated signal corresponds to the receiver), the receiver's terminal displays the content in the form of designated content on the content window 19. However, if the receiver is not a designated receiver (that is, if the designated signal does not correspond to the receiver), the receiver is a non-designated receiver and not a designated receiver. Accordingly, the receiver's terminal can display the content as non-designated content in the content window 19.

The second embodiment of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification is another example of a configuration of a terminal and a method of performing a task in which a user directly manipulates various hardware elements of the terminal to select a designated recipient. [Fig. 26] and [Fig. 27] show that the user can select a designated recipient in the content window by operating a hard keyboard, a soft keyboard, an input unit, or the like, or by directly contacting the image unit in the form of a touch screen to provide user input. This is an example of how to configure a terminal and execute a task.

The configuration and method are generally the same as those of [Fig. 24] and [Fig. 25], but there are differences in the constitution and method of selecting a designated recipient. The terminal 10 of Figs. 26 and 27 includes hardware elements and software elements that are the same as or similar to the terminals of Figs. 24 and 25, and thus detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted. In addition, the content window 19 of [Fig. 26] displays the same or similar information as the content window of [Fig. 24], and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

However, the difference between the terminal 10 of [Fig. 26] and the terminal of [Fig. 24] is that the terminal of [Fig. 24] displays member icons of all members belonging to a specific group in the content window, but the terminal of [Fig. 26] (10) displays the member icon (32) of the member belonging to a specific group in the content window (19), but the member icon (or member U/I) (32) of the member that the user can select as a designated recipient, and the designated recipient The member icon 32 of a member that cannot be selected can be displayed differently. Accordingly, the terminal provides convenience in that it is possible to prevent an accident in which a user accidentally sends a designated content to a member who cannot become a designated recipient.

For example, the terminal 10 of [Fig. 26] displays the member icons 32 of most members displayed in the content window 19 in an activated state (in the drawing, it is indicated by an ellipse), whereas the second member from the top The icon 32 of "i" is displayed in a deactivated state (oval is omitted in the drawing). Accordingly, the user cannot select "i" as the designated recipient, and accordingly, the user can transmit non-designated content to "i", but cannot transmit the designated content. The above configuration provides an advantage of preventing the user from accidentally sending the specified content to "i", a member excluded from the specified recipient list in advance.

The user can manually (or directly) [1] exclude one or more members belonging to a specific group of a specific app from the designated recipient list, or [2], on the contrary, add the member to the non-recipient list. However, since the addition to the list of non-recipients in [2] in the preceding sentence corresponds to the exclusion from the list of designated recipients in [1] in the preceding sentence, the case [1] is described below, and the case [2] is Detailed description is omitted.

When the user excludes the member from the designated recipient list, the terminal 10 either [1] excludes the member only from the designated recipient list of the group, or [2] all groups set by the app in which the group is set. Excluding the member from the designated recipient list, [3] excluding the member only from the designated recipient list of a plurality of specific groups, not all groups set by the app, or [4] The member may be excluded from the designated recipient list of all apps, or [5] the member may be excluded only for the designated recipient list of a plurality of specific apps, although not all apps installed in the terminal.

The user may exclude the member from the designated recipient list or add the member to the non-recipient list by using the same or similar method as the method for selecting a designated recipient described in the first embodiment of the fourth exemplary aspect. . Alternatively, the user may exclude the member from the designated recipient list or add the member to the non-recipient list by using the terminal's setting function. Accordingly, the user may receive non-designated content or specified content sent by the member, but the user may not be able to send the specified content to the member, or may not be able to send non-designated content depending on terminal settings or app settings. .

In contrast, the terminal can select members to be excluded from the list of designated recipients using a variety of information analysis algorithms used in artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, big data, speech analysis, or text analysis. As an example, the above-described information analysis algorithm analyzes data stored in a terminal, stored in a specific app, or stored only in a specific group of a specific app, so that the user can identify members who should not send specified content, and select the member. Later, you can exclude them from the list of designated recipients. In particular, the terminal may select a member to be excluded from the designated recipient list in consideration of content exchanged between a user and a specific member, business relations or personal relations between the user and the member, and the like.

A user can create content in the input window 14 in various ways, which is the same as or similar to the method illustrated in Figs. 24 and 25, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted. The user may select a designated recipient from among members included in the designated recipient list, or select a designated recipient from members not included in the non-recipient list before, during, or after creating the content. However, since the designation recipient selection is the same as or similar to the method illustrated in FIGS. 24 and 25 above, detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted.

When the user finishes manipulating the member icon (or U/I) 32, the terminal 10 generates a "designation signal" indicating the designated recipient according to the user's operation. The terminal 10 may display a member icon 32 of a designated member in the content window 19 displayed on the image unit 11 or a designation mark 33 around it.

The terminal 10 may request the user to confirm whether the member selected by the user is the designated recipient in various ways. For example, if the member who became the designated mark (33) in the content window (19) as a result of checking the designated mark (33) is not the designated recipient intended by the user, the user manipulates the member icon (32) again to You can cancel the selection and select a new member as the designated recipient. In response to this, the terminal 10 may cancel the designation mark 33 for the icon 32 of a member other than the intended designated recipient.

Alternatively, when the user presses the transmit button 13S, the terminal 10 may request the user to confirm whether to send or not. For example, the terminal 10 may request confirmation that the member selected by the user is a designated recipient. When the user confirms that the member selected by the user is a designated recipient, the terminal 10 may send a designated data packet. However, if the user does not perform the confirmation operation, the terminal 10 may stop sending, request the user to select a designated recipient again, or send the content as non-designated content immediately or after a certain period of time.

If the user does not respond to the verification process described in the above two paragraphs within a certain time, the terminal 10 [1] regards the user as a designated recipient and sends the user-generated content in the form of a designated data packet. Or, [2] regards the content created by the user as non-designated contents and sends the contents in the form of non-designated data packets, [3] requests the user to confirm again, or [4] when the user takes a specific action Until the delivery of the content can be withheld.

When the user checks the designation mark 33 and operates the transmit button 13S, the terminal 10 transmits a designated data packet including the designated content to the server (center or location). The server receiving the packet may send a designated data packet to all members of the group, or to a plurality of members other than all of the members. Details of this are the same as or similar to the methods illustrated in Figs. 24 and 25, and thus further description will be omitted.

Various terminals, designated content, or designated icon badges of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, and the modification or improvement is [1] applied to the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the fourth exemplary aspect, or [2] the description or the description below of the present specification. It can be applied to different exemplary aspects of the above, modifications or improvements of the embodiments or detailed examples of the different aspects.

A first detailed example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of a designation signal different from the designation signal. For example, the terminal may generate a designation signal of one of "0" or "1" instead of a designation signal in the form of a matrix or a database. For example, if the designated signal is "1", it indicates that the receiver is a designated recipient, but if the designated signal is "0", it indicates that the receiver is not a designated receiver but a non-designated receiver.

When the terminal transmits the designated data packet to the server, the server receives the designated data packet and then transmits the designated data packet to all members of the group, and the terminal of the recipient who receives the designated data packet extracts the content from the designated data packet. In addition, after the receiver's terminal checks the designated signal, if the receiver is the designated receiver (ie, the designated signal is “1”), the content is displayed as designated content, but the receiver is a non-designated receiver (ie, the designated signal is “0”). In this case, the content may be displayed as non-designated content.

A second detailed example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for confirming designated content. As an example, unlike the above, the terminal generates the designated data packet, and also generates a "non-designated data packet" which includes content, a header and a tail, etc. created by the user, but does not include a designated signal. The terminal transmits both the designated data packet and the non-designated data packet to the server, and the server receiving it transmits the designated data packet to the designated recipient, but may transmit the non-designated data packet to the remaining group members. Accordingly, the terminal of the designated recipient who has received the designated data packet may display the content as designated content, but the terminal of the non-designated recipient who received the non-designated data packet may display the content as non-designated content.

A third detailed example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for sending data packets and designated signals. Unlike the above, the terminal may generate a "non-designated data packet" that includes content, a header, a tail, etc. created by the user, but does not contain a designated signal, and then transmits the non-designated data packet and the designated signal to the server. After receiving this, the server sends both the designated signal and the non-designated data packet to the designated recipient, but does not transmit the designated signal to the remaining group members, but only the non-designated data packet. The terminal of the designated receiver, which has received both the designated signal and the non-designated data packet, displays the content as designated content, but the terminals of the remaining members that have received only the non-designated data packet display the content as non-designated content.

A fourth detail example of a modification or refinement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method for storing and recalling content and designation signals. Various terminals and servers of the present specification may store contents, designated signals, non-designated data packets, or designated data packets in various ways. For example, the server may receive and process all of the contents, designated signals, non-designated data packets, and designated data packets, and then store them. The server transmits either [1] an unspecified data packet or a specified data packet to the recipient, [2] transmits the content and the specified signal to the designated recipient, but transmits only the content to the general recipient, or [3] the recipient (or To the receiver's terminal), only the unspecified content, designated content, or storage location of the stored signal stored in the server can be transmitted.

Alternatively, the server may receive both the non-designated data packet and the designated data packet, and then receive it to the receiver without processing or storing it. Accordingly, when the terminal of the receiver receives the specified data packet, the terminal may display the content included in the packet as the specified content. However, when the receiver's terminal receives the non-designated data packet, the terminal may display the contents included in the packet as non-designated contents. If necessary, the server may process or store unspecified data packets or some or all of the designated data packets.

Alternatively, the server may receive the data packet and the designation signal that do not contain the designation signal, and then process them or not store them (or after processing or storing them) to send them to the recipient. Accordingly, if the recipient terminal receives only the data packet, the terminal may display the content included in the packet as non-designated content. However, when the receiver terminal receives the data packet and the designation signal together, the contents included in the packet may be displayed as designated contents. If necessary, the server may process or store some or all of the data packet or designation signal.

In contrast, the server may transmit various contents or data packets to the receiver's terminal by combining or modifying the above-described configuration or method of the fourth detailed example. For example, the server receives one or more of [1] designated data packets or non-designated data packets, [2] receives content and designated signals, [3] receives non-designated data packets and designated signals, or [4] designated It can receive signals, non-designated data packets, and designated data packets. The server may store one or more of content, a designated signal, a designated data packet, or a non-designated data packet. Similarly, the server may send one or more of [1] designated data packets or non-designated data packets, [2] send content and designated signals, [3] send non-designated data packets and designated signals, or [4] designated signals, Undesignated data packets and designated data packets can be sent. As described above, the receiver's terminal [1] receives a data packet from the server or from the user, extracts the content from the packet, [2] directly receives the content instead of the data packet format, or [3] the content is the server You can receive information about the location stored in.

A fifth detailed example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method of selecting a designated recipient using various types of user input. For example, the user may provide the mechanical user input or different mechanical user input and select a designated recipient. That is, a user can select a designated recipient by providing various mechanical user inputs, various electrical user inputs, or various magnetic user inputs to various input units of the terminal using non-user objects other than his or her body part.

In contrast, the user gazes at the member ID of a specific member desired by the user in the group window or the content window, or gazes at the member ID of the member or the content sent by the member in the content window, and electronic By providing miraculous user input to the various input units of the terminal, it is possible to select a specific recipient as the designated recipient. In particular, the terminal secures an image of the user's iris, retina, other eye areas, or faces using a camera or other image acquisition unit, and analyzes the user's line of sight from the image. Based on the analysis, the terminal may select the member as a designated recipient after confirming the member to which the user gazes among the members displayed in the group window or the content window.

The user can select a designated recipient by providing an acoustic user input such as his/her own voice or other sound to the microphone of the terminal or an input unit capable of performing a function equivalent thereto. For example, the user may select the member as a designated recipient by speaking to the microphone of the name, nickname, position, and ID of a specific member, as well as a number, symbol, or name assigned to a specific member. Alternatively, the user may select the member as a designated recipient by speaking to the microphone a task or schedule related to the member, a word or phrase included in the content exchanged with the member, or other words or phrases related to the member, or a description of an image. I can.

In particular, when a user provides an electromagnetic user input such as an image or an acoustic user input such as a voice, the user designates a specific member even when the video unit displays an input window or content window, or does not display the window. You can choose to be the recipient. In addition, when the terminal or app receives an acoustic user input using the voice recognition unit, [1] the user selects the member as the designated recipient by saying the name, abbreviation, nickname, etc. of a specific member, or [2] The user may select the recipient or the terminal may display the input window on the video unit and then select the member as the designated recipient by saying "designated" or a word corresponding thereto.

A sixth detail example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and a method for confirming whether or not a designated recipient is selected. In other words, the terminal can inquire of the user even if the user does not select a designated recipient. As an example, the terminal [1] when the user requests the input window, [2] when the user starts to create content in the input window, [3] the name, alias, title, or When entering other words reminiscent of or referring to the member, [4] when the user inputs content of a certain length or size, or [5] when the user clicks the send button without selecting a designated recipient, You can ask the user whether to select the member as the designated recipient.

If an input indicating that the user does not select a designated recipient is provided for the inquiry, the terminal may regard the content generated by the user as non-designated content, include it in the non-designated data packet, and then send it. On the other hand, if the user provides an input to select a designated recipient, the terminal may wait for the user's selection, designate the recipient selected by the user as a designated recipient, and send the content after being included in the designated data packet. For user convenience, the terminal may display a member list of members belonging to a specific group of a specific app or a list of designated recipients of the group.

A seventh detail example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for selecting two or more members belonging to a specific group of a specific app as designated recipients. To this end, the terminal may generate various “designation signals” that may each designate a plurality of members of a specific group selected by the user, or may generate various “designation signals” corresponding to the plurality of members.

For example, if the designated signal is in the form of a matrix or database, if n members belong to the group, the matrix or database has 0 designated recipients (that is, if all members are non-designated recipients) or one, Data for 2 people, ..., (n-3) people, (n-2) people, and (n-1) people (that is, when all members except the user are designated recipients), etc. It can contain all. That is, the terminal can store all combinations of the n names and their respective designation signals. In this case, the terminal can limit the maximum number of designated recipients, or build data in the form of a matrix or database excluding certain members. In addition, the terminal may store the combination and storage signals for members belonging to a designated recipient list, rather than all members belonging to a specific group.

On the other hand, when the designated signal is "0" or "1", the terminal transmits a non-designated data packet including a designated signal of "0" indicating that it is a non-designated recipient or a designated data packet including a designated signal of "1" indicating that the designated recipient is. It can be sent to single or multiple members. Therefore, if the user does not select any member as the designated recipient, the terminal can send a non-designated data packet including the designated signal "0" to all members of the group. Or, if the designated signal is an arbitrary number, character, or symbol, the terminal may select a single or multiple members of a data packet (i.e., a designated data packet) in which a random number, letter, or symbol is written in the portion of the data packet where the designated signal will be stored. It can be transmitted to members, and a data packet in which the part is empty (ie, a non-designated data packet) can be transmitted to the remaining members. The terminal may select a plurality of members as designated recipients using other methods described above and below.

As described above, when a terminal sends a designated data packet including a designated signal and a non-designated data packet that does not contain a designated signal, the receiver's terminal designates the designated content or non-designated content according to the presence or absence of the designated signal included in the data packet. Can be displayed as content. In this case, the designation signal may be any arbitrary number, letter or symbol. That is, if the header, tail, or other part of the data packet including the designated signal is empty, the terminal regards the data packet as a non-designated data packet, but the header, tail or other part is a number, letter, symbol, image, or In the case of including other information, the terminal can regard the data packet as a designated data packet.

An eighth detail example of modification and improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of a non-designated signal corresponding to the opposite of the designated signal. For example, instead of a "designated signal" indicating that one or more members of a specific group are designated recipients, one or more members of the same group generate a "non-designated signal" indicating a non-designated recipient, and a "non-designated data packet" containing the non-designated signal. Can be created and utilized. In other words, the non-designated signal corresponds to a signal indicating a non-designated recipient instead of indicating a designated recipient among members of a specific group, and the terminal receiving a data packet containing the non-designated signal transfers the contents included in the data packet to the non-designated contents. Can be displayed. Conversely, a terminal receiving a data packet that does not contain a non-designated signal may display the content included in the data packet as designated content.

The configuration of this detailed example can be easily applied to various embodiments and detailed examples related to the designation signal described above. That is, the terminal can identify the non-designated recipient by using the non-designated signal opposite to the designated signal, and can regard all of the remaining members as designated recipients, and accordingly, the contents included in the data packet including the non-designated signal are non-designated contents, Content included in a data packet that does not include a non-designated signal may be displayed as designated content.

A ninth detail example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for selectively sending designated content to a specific member. That is, the user may not send the designated data packet or the designated content to all members of a specific group, but may send it only to the designated recipient, and thus, the non-designated recipient may not be able to receive the non-designated data packet including the content. Accordingly, the non-designated recipient cannot receive the content that the user transmits to the designated recipient, and the user can also transmit the specified content only to the designated recipient.

For this purpose, if the designated signal is in the form of a matrix or database, the terminal [1] modifies the elements of the matrix or database to exclude members that do not correspond to the designated signal from the recipient list so that undesignated data packets are not transmitted to them, or Alternatively, [2] content may be transmitted only to a receiver corresponding to the designated signal by using the various methods described above or other conventional methods.

Or, if the designated signal is "0" or "1", the terminal sets [1] the designation signal of the designated data packet transmitted to the designated recipient as "1", while the designation signal of the non-designated data packet transmitted to the rest of the members. Is set to "0" so that non-designated data packets are not sent to them, or "2" is designated in addition to "0" and "1" in the designated signal, and "0" is assigned as the designated signal. Do not send any content to members, send the content as non-designated content to members assigned with "1" as the designated signal, and send the content as designated content to members assigned with "2" as the designation signal, or Or [3] other existing methods can be used to ensure that content is sent only to recipients corresponding to the designated signal.

The tenth detail example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect of the present specification is that the user directly sends non-designated data packets, designated data packets, contents, designated signals, etc. from his terminal to other members of a specific group without going through the server. It is about the configuration and method to enable transmission. In other words, by manipulating the terminal settings or modifying the network structure with the (central) server, the user directly sends non-designated data packets, designated data packets, contents, and designated signals to other members of a specific group without going through the server. Make it possible to send. This detailed example corresponds to a case where the user terminal and the receiver terminal can exchange content without going through a server, and for example, Bluetooth, NFC, or near field communication between a plurality of terminals, etc. Corresponds.

Each of the embodiments and detailed examples of the fourth exemplary aspect described above may be interchangeable with the embodiments or detailed examples of different aspects described above and described below. Accordingly, the various embodiments and detailed examples of the fourth aspect are applied to a corresponding characteristic of [1] a different embodiment or detail of the same aspect, a different embodiment or a different detail of the same aspect, as long as they do not conflict with each other, or , [2] included in the corresponding characteristic, [3] substituted for the corresponding characteristic, [4] replaced by the corresponding characteristic, or [5] mixed with the corresponding characteristic.

The fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification is that a user designates a single or multiple members using various member lists displayed on the video unit by the terminal, selects a recipient, generates a designation signal, and designates content and a designation signal. It is about various configurations and methods of generating data packets. A user running a specific app can select a designated recipient before, during, or after entering the content into the information window. To this end, a user can easily select a designated recipient by using a "member list" displaying all (or multiple) members or member IDs belonging to a specific group of a specific app.

In this exemplary aspect, a configuration and a method in which a user selects a single member of a specific group of a specific app as a designated recipient is mainly described, but the terminal easily improves the configuration and method so that the user repeats the method so that a number of Members can also be selected as designated recipients. Therefore, a description of the configuration and method for selecting a plurality of members as designated recipients will be omitted.

The first embodiment of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example of a configuration of a terminal in which a user directly selects a designated recipient by using a member list displayed on a group window and a method of executing a task. For example, the terminal displays a member list including member IDs (or U/)I (17) of all (or multiple) members belonging to a specific group of a specific app in the group window (15) illustrated in [Fig. 3] In this case, the user [1] directly presses, contacts, or manipulates the member's ID 17 displayed in the list, [2] by operating it using a hard keyboard or a soft keyboard, or [ 3] Other input units can be used to select specific recipients as designated recipients from the member list by manipulating them.

In contrast, the user displays the content window 19 on the video unit 11 by selecting a specific group from the group window 15 displaying a plurality of groups, and provides a user input to create a member list on the content window 19. Is displayed, and a specific recipient can be selected as a designated recipient from the list. Alternatively, a user may select a specific member as a designated recipient by providing an acoustic user input to an input unit such as a speaker in the group window 15 or the content window 19. To this end, the user may select the group window 15 or the content window. In (19), the member list can be displayed on the video unit 11.

Alternatively, the terminal displays the member list on the image unit 11 and then secures an electromagnetic and acoustic user input using an image of the user's eyes, iris, or retina. You can also select specific members as designated recipients. For example, the terminal analyzes the line of sight of the user who gazes at a specific part of the member list displayed on the content window 19, and corresponds to the specific member ID 17 corresponding to the gaze direction in the member list. Members can be selected as designated recipients. By providing a specific user input to the terminal, the user can cause the terminal to acquire the gaze direction and analyze it. Alternatively, the terminal may obtain the user's gaze direction for a certain period of time after displaying the member list on the video unit and analyze it. In this case, the user only needs to look at the member ID 17 of a specific member included in the member list for the predetermined period of time without needing to provide another user input to the terminal. Therefore, this configuration provides the advantage that the user can more conveniently select the designated recipient.

The second embodiment of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example of a configuration of a terminal in which a user can directly select a designated recipient by displaying a member list in a content window and a method of executing a task. [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29] show the user directly manipulating a hard keyboard, soft keyboard, or other input unit, or by providing various user inputs such as direct contact with an image unit, thereby selecting a designated recipient in the content window. It is an example of the configuration and method.

The terminal 10 includes elements that are the same as or similar to the hardware elements and software elements of the terminals of [Figs. 24] to [27], and thus further detailed descriptions are omitted. In addition, the content window 19 displayed on the video unit 11 by the terminal 10 of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29] is the same as or similar to the content window of the terminal of [Figs. 24] to [Fig. 27]. Accordingly, the user can create content by manipulating the terminal 10 in the same or similar manner as that of the terminals of [FIGS. 24] to [FIG. 27], and thus further description thereof will be omitted.

The user who drives the terminal of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29] selects one (or multiple) members of the group as designated recipients through various methods before, during, or after creating the content to be sent. You can choose. To this end, the user may use various methods to display a member list 34A including member icons 32 of all (or multiple) members of the group or member IDs (or U/I) 17 in the terminal. You can ask the terminal to mark (11). To this end, the user [1] manipulates one or more input units 12A, 12B, 12C in the form of hard buttons, [2] manipulates the keyboard 13 in the form of a soft button or hard button, or [3] a hard button. Alternatively, the arrow keys 13A in the form of soft buttons can be operated.

When the terminal 10 displays the member list 34A on the video unit 11 in response to the user input in the above paragraph, the user [1] the specific member icon 32 or ID 17 of the member list 34A. Press or touch to select a specific member as the designated recipient, [2] select a specific member included in the member list (34A) as a designated recipient by operating a hard keyboard or soft keyboard, or [3] other input By operating the unit, a specific member on the member list 34A can be selected as the designated recipient.

The terminal 10 may display a member list 34A of various shapes or types on the image unit 11. As an example, the terminals of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29] are on one side of the image unit 11 (for example, right, left, upper, lower, or center) and icons of all (or multiple) members belonging to the group (32). ), the member ID 17, and the like can be displayed in the member list 34A in the vertical direction.

In the case of [Fig. 28], the user presses or contacts the member icon 32 of the two members "Park" and "Kim 23" from the member list 34A displayed in the content window 19. If selected, the terminal 10 can highlight and display the member icons 32 of "Park" and "Kim 23" as shown in [Fig. 29]. Through this, the user You can easily check if it is a designated recipient.

The terminal 10 may display an ID 17 or an icon 32 of a member belonging to the group on the member list 34A in various ways. For example, the terminal 10 may arrange the member ID 17 or the icon 32 in the order of letters (for example, Korean, English alphabet) such as the member's name and ID, or in numerical order. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may arrange the member ID 17 or the icon 32 in the order in which the members join the group. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may arrange the member ID 17 or the icon 32 of the member who sent the content in the order of the content displayed on the content window 19.

If the number of members is too high and the terminal 10 cannot display the IDs 17 or the icons 32 of all members in the member list 34A displayed on the video unit, the terminal 10 is [1] Member ID (17) or icon (32) is displayed as small as possible to display the member ID (17) or icon (32) of as many members as possible, or [2] the member list 34A by providing various user inputs by the user You can make it scrollable up and down. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may display the member icon 32 or the member ID 17 in a horizontal or vertical direction in two or more rows, or in other arrangements.

When the user finishes the manipulation of the member ID 17 or the icon 32 and selects one or more designated recipients, the terminal 10 generates a "designation signal" indicating the designated recipient according to the operation. When the user completes the selection of the designated recipient after completing the content creation, or when the user completes the content creation after completing the selection of the designated recipient, the user operates by pressing or touching the send button 13S. Accordingly, the terminal 10 or the app may generate a "designated data packet" including both content created by the user, a "designated signal" generated by the user, and a header or tail. From this point of view, the designation signal can be regarded as a signal indicating which member of a specific group has been designated by the user as a designated recipient. Therefore, the designation signal can be constructed in the form of a matrix or a database.

In addition, the terminal 10 may perform various designated recipient confirmation operations or shipment confirmation operations illustrated in the fourth embodiment described above. The terminal 10 that has undergone the above-described verification process transmits the designated data packet to the (central) server, and the server receiving the data packet may transmit the packet to all or specific members of the group.

The receiver's terminal receiving the data packet extracts content from the packet, and checks the presence or absence of a designation signal or characteristics of the designation signal. If the recipient is a designated recipient (that is, the designated signal corresponds to the recipient), the terminal 10 displays the content in the form of the designated content, whereas the recipient is a non-designated recipient (that is, the designated signal does not correspond to the recipient), the terminal ( 10) displays the content as non-designated content.

The third embodiment of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification is another example of a configuration of another terminal and a method of executing a task in which the user directly selects a designated recipient by displaying a member list in the content window.

[Fig. 30] and [Fig. 31] provide various user inputs such as direct manipulation of a hard keyboard, soft keyboard, or other input unit by a user, or direct contact with an image unit, and select a designated recipient in the content window. This is an example of how to configure and execute tasks. The terminal 10 includes elements identical or similar to the hardware elements and software elements of the terminals of [Figs. 28] and [Fig. 29], and thus further detailed descriptions are omitted.

In addition, the content window 19 that the terminal 10 displays on the image unit 11 is the same as or similar to the content window of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29], so that the user can select the terminal 10 [Fig. 28]. Since content can be created by operating in the same or similar method as the terminal of FIG. 29 and [Fig. 29], further descriptions thereof will be omitted.

The user who drives the terminals of [Fig. 30] and [Fig. 31] selects one (or multiple) members of the group as designated recipients in various ways before, during, or after creating the content to be sent. You can choose. To this end, the user can provide user input through various methods of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29]. In response to this, when the terminal 10 displays the member list 34B on the image unit 11, the user [1] presses or contacts a specific member icon 32 or ID 17 of the member list 34B. As a result, [2] by manipulating the icon 32 or ID 17 using a hard keyboard or a soft keyboard, or [3] manipulating the icon 32 or ID 17 using other input units. , A specific member included in the member list 34B may be selected as a designated recipient.

The terminal 10 may display a member list 34B having a shape or format different from the member list of [Fig. 28] or [Fig. 29] on the image unit 11. For example, the terminals of [Fig. 30] and [Fig. 31] are icons of all (or multiple) members of the group in a specific part of the image unit 11 (for example, right, left, upper, lower, center, etc.). 32) or a member list 34B listing the member IDs 17 in the horizontal direction may be displayed.

For example, the terminal 10 of Figs. 30 and 31 displays a member list 34B just above the input window 14. In the example of [Fig. 30], when the user taps or contacts the member icon 32 of the member located in the middle and the member located on the right of the member list 34B displayed in the content window 19, the terminal 10 As shown in [Fig. 31], the icons 32 of the two members can be highlighted and displayed, and accordingly, the user can easily check whether the member selected by the user is the designated recipient he or she intended.

If the number of members is too high and the terminal 10 cannot display the IDs 17 or the icons 32 of all members in the member list 34B displayed on the video unit, the terminal 10 is [1] Member ID (17) or icon (32) is displayed as small as possible to display the member ID (17) or icon (32) of as many members as possible, or [2] the member list 34B by providing various user inputs by the user You can make it scrollable left and right. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may display the member icon 32 or the member ID 17 in a horizontal or vertical direction in two or more rows, or in other arrangements.

When the user selects the designated recipient after completing the operation of the member icon 32 or ID 17, the terminal 10 displays the designated recipient in the same or similar operation as the operations in [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29]. It generates "designated signals" and various data packets, and sends them to the recipient. However, the terminal 10 may also perform various designated recipient confirmation operations or shipment confirmation operations exemplified in the fourth embodiment described above. Thereafter, the terminal 10 transmits a designated data packet to the server, and the server receiving the data packet may transmit the data packet to all members of the group or to a specific member.

The receiver's terminal receiving the data packet extracts content from the packet, and checks the presence or absence of a designation signal or characteristics of the designation signal. If the recipient is a designated recipient (ie, there is a designated signal or corresponds to a designated recipient), the terminal 10 displays the content in the form of designated content, while the recipient is a non-designated recipient (ie, there is no designated signal or corresponds to a designated recipient). Not), the terminal 10 may display the content in the form of non-designated content.

A fourth embodiment of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification is another example of a configuration and method of a terminal allowing a user to directly select a designated recipient from a member list displayed in a content window. [Fig. 32] is a diagram of a configuration and method for providing various user inputs, such as a user directly manipulating a hard keyboard, a soft keyboard, or other input unit, or directly contacting an image unit, This is an example.

The terminal 10 of [Fig. 32] includes elements identical or similar to the hardware elements and software elements of the terminals of [Figs. 28] and [Fig. 29], and thus further detailed description is omitted. The content window 19 that the terminal 10 of [Fig. 32] displays on the image unit 11 is also the same as or similar to the content window of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. Since content can be created by operating in the same or similar method as the terminals of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29], further descriptions thereof will be omitted.

A user driving the terminal of FIG. 32 may select one (or multiple) members of the group as designated recipients in various ways before, during, or after creating the content to be sent. The user can provide user input through various methods of [Fig. 28] and [Fig. 29]. In response to this, when the terminal 10 displays the member list 34C on the image unit 11, the user [1] presses or contacts a specific member icon 32 or ID 17 in the member list 34C. And select a specific member as the designated recipient, [2] select a specific member on the member list (34C) as a designated recipient by operating a hard keyboard, soft keyboard, etc., or [3] operate other input units to select a member list ( 34C) can be selected as a designated recipient.

The terminal 10 may display a member list 34C having a different shape or format from the member lists 34A and 34B of [Fig. 28] to [Fig. 31] on the image unit 11. For example, the terminal of [Fig. 32] is a member that lists icons 32 or member IDs 17 of all (or multiple) members of the group at the bottom of the input window 14 displayed on the image unit 11 The list 34C can be displayed. However, the member list 34C is generally similar to the member list 34B of Figs. 30 and 31, but unlike the member list 34B displayed at the top of the input window 14, the input window 14 Unlike the member list 34B, which is displayed at the bottom and displays the member icon 32 or ID 17 in a row in the horizontal direction, the member icon 32 or the ID 17 can be displayed in multiple columns in the horizontal direction. have.

When the imaging unit 11 is a touch screen, the terminal 10 may display the member icon 32 at a position where the soft keyboard 13 is displayed. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may lightly display the soft keyboard 13 and may display a member icon 32 on it. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may display the name or member ID of each member together with the member icon 32.

If the number of members is too high and the terminal 10 cannot display the IDs 17 and icons 32 of all members in the member list 34C displayed on the video unit, the terminal 10 is [1] Member ID (17) or icon (32) is displayed as small as possible to display the member ID (17) or icon (32) of as many members as possible, or [2] the member list 34C by providing various user inputs by the user You can make it scrollable left and right. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may display the member icon 32 or the member ID 17 in a horizontal or vertical direction in two or more rows, or in other arrangements.

When the user selects the designated recipient after completing the operation of the member icon 32 or ID 17, the terminal 10 displays the designated recipient in the same or similar operation as the operations in [Fig. 28] to [Fig. 31]. It generates "designated signals" and various data packets, and sends them to the recipient. However, since the details related to the generation and delivery are the same as or similar to those of [Fig. 28] to [Fig. 31], further description will be omitted.

The fifth embodiment of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example of a configuration of a terminal allowing a user to directly select a designated recipient by using different member lists displayed in a content window and a method of executing a task. [Fig. 33] and [Fig. 34] are configurations in which the user directly provides various user inputs such as manipulating a soft (or hard) keyboard or other input unit or directly contacting an image unit, thereby selecting a designated recipient in the content window. And examples of the method.

The terminal 10 of [Fig. 33] includes elements identical or similar to the hardware elements and software elements of the terminals [Figs. 28] to [Fig. 32], and thus further description is omitted. In addition, since the content window 19 that the terminal 10 of [Fig. 33] displays on the image unit 11 is the same as or similar to the content window of [Figs. 28] to [Fig. 32], the user can select [ Since contents can be created by operating in the same or similar method as the terminals of Figs. 28 to 32, further descriptions thereof will be omitted.

A user driving the terminal 10 of FIG. 33 may select a specific member of the group members as a designated recipient in various ways before, during, or after creating the content to be sent. As an example, the user may provide user input through various methods of [Fig. 28] to [Fig. 32]. In response to this, the terminal 10 displays a member list 34D on the image unit 11, but the member list 34D enumerates the member icons 32 of the members of the group along the circumference of an oval or circular window. Have a form.

The user [1] selects a specific member as the designated recipient by pressing or contacting the member icon 32 or ID 17 displayed on the member list (34D), or [2] operating a hard keyboard or soft keyboard to A specific member of the member list 34D can be selected as the designated recipient by selecting a specific member of the list 34D as the designated recipient or by operating [3] other input units. If necessary, the terminal 10 may be configured to rotate the member list 34D so that the user can easily select a specific member as a designated recipient.

If the number of members is too high and the terminal 10 cannot display the IDs 17 or the icons 32 of all members in the member list 34D displayed on the video unit, the terminal 10 is [1] Member ID (17) or icon (32) is displayed as small as possible to display the member ID (17) or icon (32) of as many members as possible, or [2] the member list 34D by providing various user inputs by the user Can be rotated clockwise or counterclockwise. In particular, when the user rotates the member list 34D clockwise or counterclockwise, the terminal displays member icons 32 or IDs 17 of members that could not be displayed on the member list 34D before rotation. 34D). Alternatively, the terminal 10 may display the member icon 32 or the member ID 17 in the form of a concentric circle in a concentric array of several lines, or may be displayed in other arrangements.

The terminal 10 in Fig. 34 is the same as the terminal in Fig. 33, but the arrangement of the member list 34D is different. For example, the terminal 10 of [Fig. 34] displays a member list 34D displaying the member icons 32 of the members of the group along the circumference of a circular window like the terminal of [Fig. 33]. However, the terminal 10 displays the orientation of the member icon 32 so as to be symmetrical to the center of the circle.

When the user selects the designated recipient after completing the operation of the member icon 32 or ID 17, the terminal 10 displays the designated recipient in the same or similar operation as the operations in [Figs. 28] to [Fig. 32]. It generates "designated signals" and various data packets, and sends them to the recipient. However, since the details related to the generation and delivery are the same as or similar to those of [Fig. 28] to [Fig. 32], further description will be omitted.

Various terminals, designated content, and designated icon badges of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, and the modification or improvement is [1] applied to the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the fifth exemplary aspect, or [2] the above and below description of the present specification. It may be applied to the different exemplary aspects of the above, the modification or improvement of the embodiments or detailed examples of the different aspects. However, the detailed examples related to the modification or improvement of the fifth exemplary aspect are generally the same as or similar to the modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, except that a member list is used, so only important differences will be described. .

The first to third detailed examples of modifications or improvements of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification are directed to a configuration and method for generating and using a designated signal. For example, the terminal may generate a designation signal of one of "0" or "1" instead of a designation signal in the form of a matrix or a database. Alternatively, the terminal may generate a designation signal using "0" and "1" and "2". Alternatively, the terminal may generate a designated data packet as well as a "non-designated data packet" that does not include a designated signal, and then transmit one or both of them to the recipient. Other details are generally similar to or the same as the first to third detailed examples of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, and thus further description will be omitted.

A fourth detail example of modification or improvement of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for the generation and use of various contents, various designation signals, and data packets containing them. For example, a central server, a location server, or a terminal may store content, designated signals, and (non-designated or designated) data packets in various ways. Other details are similar or identical to the fourth detailed example of the modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, and thus further description will be omitted.

The fifth and sixth detailed examples of variations or refinements of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification are for various user inputs provided by the user for selection of a designated recipient. The user can select a designated recipient using various types of user input. In particular, the user can select a designated recipient by providing various mechanical user input, electrical user input, magnetic user input, electromagnetic user input, or acoustic user input. You can choose. Alternatively, the terminal 10 may pre-select the designated recipient even if the user does not select the designated recipient. Other details are generally similar to or the same as the fifth and sixth detailed examples of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, and thus further description will be omitted.

However, if the user knows the name, nickname, or other name of a specific recipient that he or she intends to designate, the user can say the recipient's name, nickname, other names, etc., even if the terminal does not display the member list on the video unit. Can be designated as a designated recipient. In this case, in order for the user to refer to the member list, the user may cause the terminal to display the list on the video unit by providing a specific word or command by voice.

A seventh detail example of a modification or refinement of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification is for a designation signal in the form of "0" or "1". Users can select multiple members of a specific group as designated recipients of the content they provide, and for this purpose, a designation signal in the form of "0" or "1" can be generated. If necessary, "0" and "1" In addition to "," as described above, "2" or "3" is also used as a designation signal, so that the receiver can be subdivided into two types, three types, four types, or more. In addition, the terminal may use the number itself as a designation signal, or use the above number as a designation signal in a matrix form or a database form. Other details are generally similar to or the same as the seventh detailed example of the modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, and thus further description will be omitted.

An eighth detail example of a modification or refinement of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method related to the generation and use of a non-designated signal corresponding to the opposite concept of the designated signal. The terminal may generate a non-designated signal instead of the designated signal, and may generate a non-designated data packet including the non-designated signal instead of the designated data packet including the designated signal. Other details are generally similar to or the same as the eighth detailed example of the modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, so further description will be omitted.

A ninth detailed example of modification or improvement of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of sending a designated content or designated data packet only to a designated recipient. For example, a user may not send a designated data packet or designated content to all members of a specific group, but instead only send it to a designated recipient. Accordingly, the terminal prevents the non-designated member from receiving even the non-designated data packet including the non-designated content. I can. Other details are generally similar to or the same as the ninth detailed example of the modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, and thus further description will be omitted.

A tenth detail example of modification or improvement of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of sending a content or data packet without going through a server. For example, a user can directly transmit a non-designated data packet, a designated data packet, a content or a designated signal to another member without going through the server by manipulating the terminal settings or modifying the network with the server. Other details are generally similar to or the same as the tenth detail example of modification or improvement of the fourth exemplary aspect, so further description will be omitted.

An eleventh detail of a variation or refinement of the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a criterion or order for displaying members in a member list. For example, the terminal may place member IDs or member icons in the member list in the order of letters (eg, Korean, English alphabet), such as the member's name or ID, or numbers related to the member. Alternatively, the terminal may arrange member IDs or member icons in the order in which members join the group. Alternatively, the terminal may arrange member IDs or member icons in the order of contents displayed from the bottom to the top in the content window, that is, in the order in which the contents sent by the members are received. In addition to this, the terminal may place member IDs or member icons according to preferences or order established by the user in advance. On the contrary, the terminal may arrange member IDs or member icons in reverse order according to a user's pre-established non-preference.

Each of the embodiments and detailed examples of the fifth exemplary aspect may be interchangeable with the embodiments or detailed examples of different aspects described above and described below. Accordingly, the various embodiments and detailed examples of the fifth aspect are applied to the corresponding characteristics of [1] different embodiments or details of the same aspect, different embodiments or different details of the same aspect, as long as they do not conflict with each other, or , [2] may be included in the corresponding property, [3] replace the corresponding property, [4] be replaced by the corresponding property, or [5] be mixed with the corresponding property.

A sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification is that by using various information analysis algorithms, the terminal proactively selects a designated recipient, generates a designated signal, and generates a designated data packet including the content and the designated signal. It is about the various configurations and how to execute the task. However, as described above, this is equivalent to various configurations and work execution methods in which the terminal proactively generates a designated signal, selects a designated recipient, and generates a designated data packet including content and designated signals.

As described in the sixth means above, and as exemplified in the fourth and fifth aspects, [1] the user can select a designated recipient by providing various user inputs to the terminal, and the terminal is designated based on the selection. After generating a signal, a designated data packet including the signal can be generated and sent to all or some members of a specific group of a specific app, or [2] a user creates a designated signal by providing various user inputs to the terminal. The terminal may select a designated recipient based on the designated signal, and then generate a designated data packet including the signal and send it to all (or some) members of a specific group of a specific app. However, since [1] and [2] at the front of this sentence may be different depending on the interpreted point of view, the present specification regards [1] and [2] as the same expressions unless there is a conflicting explanation.

The user can [1] select a designated recipient by providing user input such as movement or gesture to the terminal, or [2] select a designated recipient by providing electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic or acoustic user input to the terminal. . In particular, the terminal [1] directly mechanically, electrically, magnetically or acoustically detects the user's movement or gesture, or [2] electromagnetically inputs static or dynamic images such as the user's movement or gesture. It can be secured in the form of and analyzed to generate a designated signal.

Alternatively, the user may generate the designated signal by providing a user input for selecting the designated recipient or generating the designated signal. Alternatively, the terminal generates a non-designated data packet that does not contain a designated signal, and then [1] sends only the non-designated data packet to all members of the group without sending the designated signal, or [2] the designated signal and the non-designated data packet. It can only be sent to the designated recipient. On the other hand, the user may send a non-designated data packet to all members of the group without providing a user input for selecting a designated recipient or providing a user input for generating a designated signal.

All of the methods described in the above three paragraphs correspond to a method that requires user input, that is, a method of selecting a designated recipient or generating a designated signal by actively providing user input by the user. So, if a user sends a non-designated data packet to all (or selected part of) members of a specific group without generating a designated signal (i.e., not actively selecting a specific member as the designated recipient), the recipient terminal sends the packet to the packet. Included content is displayed as non-designated content.

Even if the user does not select a designated recipient or provide a user input for generating a designated signal, the terminal may pre-select a designated recipient or generate a designated signal. In a sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification, a structure or method of a terminal capable of generating a designation signal in advance after analyzing content using various existing information analysis algorithms will be described. However, the above contents are among the [1] contents that the sender will send, [2] the contents that the sender sends, [3] the contents that the server will send, [4] the contents that the server sends, or [5] the contents that the receiver receives. It can be one.

To this end, the terminal must take [1] information that designates a specific member of the group in the content of the sentence above, [2] information that calls attention to the member to read the content, or [3] after the member reads the content. You can analyze whether information related to actions to be taken is included. In addition, detailed examples of the information include [1] the member's name, name, nickname or position, [2] the text, image, or sound that means or refers to the member, and [3] the name of the task to be performed by the member. , Name or alias, or [4] text, image, or sound that means or refers to the above work. In this specification, this information will be collectively referred to as "designation request information". Regardless of the type of app, group type, or member type, the "designation request information" is a specific word, phrase, or expression included in the content generated by the sender, or an image file or voice included in or attached to the content. It can be a file.

Using various existing information analysis algorithms, the terminal can perform a preliminary analysis of whether "designated request information" is included in the content being generated by the user, the content being generated, or the content to be sent. Examples of such information analysis algorithms include [1] existing artificial intelligence related analysis algorithms, [2] existing machine learning related analysis algorithms, [3] existing deep learning related analysis algorithms, and [4] existing natural language processing or interpretation related algorithms. There are analysis algorithms, [5] existing big data related analysis algorithms, [6] existing text recognition related analysis algorithms, or [7] existing speech recognition related analysis algorithms.

When the terminal analyzing the content of the user checks the "designation request information" included in the contents, the terminal selects the designated recipient, generates a "designated signal", and sends a designated data packet including the contents and the designated signal, etc. Can be generated. On the contrary, the terminal can check the "designation request information" by analyzing the image or sound attached to the user's content by using the information analysis algorithm. Therefore, if the information analysis algorithm determines that the image is a picture or video of a specific member, or an image related to the name, name, or nickname of a specific member, the terminal may regard it as "designation request information."

Alternatively, the terminal can analyze the sound attached to the user's content using an information analysis algorithm, and the terminal identifies the sound as the voice of a specific member, or the sound is related to the name, name, nickname of a specific member, etc. If it is confirmed to be, the terminal can treat it as "designated request information". When the terminal checks the designation request information, based on this, a designated recipient may be selected, a designation signal may be generated, and a designation data packet including the content and the designation signal may be generated.

The user's terminal uses the above-described information analysis algorithm to check the "designated request information" included in the [1] content being generated by the user, [2] the content that has been created, or [3] the content before being sent, and thus The content can be treated as designated content. When the terminal generates a designation signal based on the "designation request information" and sends a designated data packet including the content and the designated signal, the receiver terminal receives the designated data packet and then the contents included in the data packet. Can be displayed as designated content.

In contrast, the user's terminal may analyze the content received by the user using the above-described information analysis algorithm and check whether the received content includes "designation request information". If designation request information is confirmed in the received content, the user's terminal may treat the received content as designated content and display it as designated content on the video unit. That is, the user terminal may perform the "pre-designated recipient selection operation" for the contents generated or sent by the user, as well as the "pre-designated sender identification operation" for the received contents received by the user terminal, if necessary.

Proactively confirming the designated sender as described above provides another benefit to the user. That is, even if the sender sends content to the user and [1] does not accidentally select the user as the designated recipient, or [2] fails to select the user as the designated recipient due to functional restrictions of the app installed in the sender's terminal, The user's terminal can check whether the content received from the sender is the specified content from the user's point of view, and accordingly, the user can easily check the specified content sent by the sender.

In other words, the user can cause the terminal to perform a pre-designated sender identification task regardless of the intention of the sender who sent the specific content. Therefore, the user terminal proactively checks unconfirmed content that the user considers important (or inferred to be considered) and displays it as designated content, thereby allowing the user to quickly check the content or not to overlook it. to provide.

On the contrary, even if the sender of a specific content designates the content as a designated content in order to allow the user to check the content that the user sends, the user's terminal executes a pre-designated sender verification task, so that the content is considered important to the user. You can check whether it is the content that is inferred to be or will be considered. That is, the user's terminal also provides the benefit of being able to select only the contents that the user considers to be important among unconfirmed contents and display them as designated contents, regardless of the intention of the sender.

In general, the terminal of the sixth exemplary aspect can use various information analysis algorithms in the same manner as when executing the pre-designated recipient selection task of the fourth exemplary aspect. However, the difference between the above fourth aspect and the use of the information analysis algorithm of this sixth aspect is that in general, in the former, the target of analysis is the content sent by the sender and received by the user, while the latter is the content created and sent by the user or scheduled to be sent. It is content. Therefore, except for the difference between the analysis targets, the terminal uses the information analysis algorithm in the same configuration and method in the above two different aspects, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

35 and 36 show that even if the user does not actively generate the designation signal, the terminal proactively selects the designated recipient by checking the designation request information. It is an example of a configuration and method that can generate a designation signal.

The first embodiment of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example of a configuration of various terminals capable of proactively selecting a designated recipient by analyzing various transmitted or received contents using various information analysis algorithms and a method of executing a task. However, the terminal 10 of [Fig. 35] and [Fig. 36] includes the same or similar elements as the hardware elements or software elements exemplified in the terminals of [Figs. 24] to [Fig. 34]. Omit it. In addition, the user can create content using the input window 14 in various ways, which is the same or similar to the method illustrated in FIGS. 24 to 34, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[Fig. 35] shows that a user selects a specific group from the group window 15 displayed on the video unit 11 after running a specific app, and accordingly, the terminal 10 displays the content window 19 on the video unit 11 This corresponds to a case in which the content “Hey,” is input in the input window 14 after the input window 14 is displayed as the soft keyboard or the hard keyboard 13 is operated. At this point, it can be inferred that the user intends to transmit non-designated content to all members of the group. On the other hand, [Fig. 36] shows the user inputting the phrase "Cutie, did you finish that?" after the phrase "Hey," in the input window 14, and manipulating the send button 13S. If you want to provide. Accordingly, it can be inferred that the user intends to send the content “Hey, Cutie, did you finish that?” as non-designated content without generating a designation signal for designating a specific member among the members of the group.

If the terminal 10 does not include the above-described information analysis algorithm, the user did not select any member as the designated recipient, and thus the terminal 10 also did not receive any designation signal from the user. Accordingly, the terminal 10 treats the content as non-designated content, and may transmit a non-designated data packet including the content to all members of the group.

However, the terminal 10 of [Fig. 35] and [Fig. 36] equipped with various information analysis algorithms makes it easy to check whether the "designation request information" is included in the contents being created, created, or ready to be sent by the user. The above-described "pre-designated recipient selection operation" can be executed by performing the analysis. For example, the terminal 10 of FIG. 36 may recognize "Cutie" included in the content using a specific information analysis algorithm, and check whether "Cutie" corresponds to "designation request information" using various methods. .

For example, the terminal 10 uses the above-described information analysis algorithm to check whether [1] "Cutie" is one of the member IDs 17 of the group, or [2] analyze previous conversations of members of the group. Check whether "Cutie" is the nickname or abbreviation of a specific member of the group, [3] whether "Cutie" is the name of a member of a specific group by analyzing previous conversations of all groups of a specific app and members of the group, Check whether it is a specific member's nickname or abbreviation, or [4] analyze all data related to all apps installed in the user's terminal, and whether "Cutie" is the name of a member of a specific group of a specific app, or the nickname of a specific member, or You can check if it is an abbreviation.

When the information analysis algorithm confirms that "Cutie" is not "designated request information" through the above analysis, the terminal 10 generates a non-designated data packet including the content, header, and tail, and sends it to the member. . On the contrary, when the information analysis algorithm confirms that "Cutie" is "designated request information" through the above analysis, the terminal 10 selects one or more designated recipients based on the designation request information, and designates the corresponding recipient. Can generate signals.

Thereafter, the terminal 10 uses various methods described above to [1] include the content in a designated data packet, and then send the packet to all members of the group, or [2] send the content to a designated data packet. After including, the data packet is sent only to the designated recipients of a specific group of a specific app or to the designated recipients of all groups of the app, or [3] after including the content in the non-designated data packet, the data packet and designated Send a signal to all members of a specific group of a specific app or to all members of all groups set by the app, or [4] include the content in an unspecified data packet, and include the data packet and the specified signal to a specific app or specific Send to the designated recipients of the group, or send to the designated recipients of all groups set by the app, or [5] include the content in the non-designated data packet, and include the data packet and the designated signal in the terminal. It can be sent to all members of.

The second embodiment of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example of a different configuration of a terminal and a method of executing a task to select a designated recipient in advance by analyzing various contents using various information analysis algorithms. As an example, the terminal 10 uses various information analysis algorithms, regardless of the type of the app, the nature of the group, the characteristics of the members belonging to the group, and the name or name of the member belonging to the group. By analyzing specific words, phrases, or expressions, "designation request information" can be checked. In other words, the user's terminal performs a "pre-designated recipient selection operation" for the dispatch content that the user creates or wants to send, so that the terminal proactively selects the designated recipient, even if the user does not actively generate the designated signal. This is the case of generating a corresponding designation signal.

The terminal in the above paragraph analyzes specific words, phrases, expressions, etc. included in the content generated by the user, and can select a designated recipient in advance. Alternatively, the terminal may select a recipient who cannot be a designated recipient in advance by analyzing a specific word, phrase, or expression included in the content generated by the user. For example, when a specific group includes men and women, if the information analysis algorithm finds a word or content that is difficult for a female member to check from the content generated by a male user, the terminal designates the content as designated content or non-designated content. It will be sent only to female members, but it may not be sent to female members at all. As another example, if a specific group includes both military members and civilian members, if the information analysis algorithm checks the military-related secrets in the contents generated by the military members, the terminal identifies the civilian members as designated or non-designated contents. It can only be sent to military members, except for this.

When the information analysis algorithm checks "designation request information" from the content generated by the user through the above analysis, the terminal may select a designated recipient and then generate a designation signal corresponding thereto. In addition, through the various methods described above, the terminal includes the content in the [1] designated data packet and sends the packet to all members of a specific group of a specific app, or [2] after including the content in the designated data packet, the packet Is sent only to the designated recipient of a specific app, or [3] after including it in the non-designated data packet, sending the packet and the designated signal to all members of a specific group of a specific app, or [4] including it in the non-designated data packet, and the The packet and the designated signal may be transmitted only to the designated recipient, or [5] may be included in the non-designated data packet, and the packet and the designated signal may be uttered to all members of the group.

Various terminals, designated content, and designated icon badges of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, wherein the modification or improvement is applied to [1] the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the sixth exemplary aspect, or [2] the above and the description below of the present specification. It may be applied to the different exemplary aspects of the above, the modification or improvement of the embodiments or detailed examples of the different aspects.

The first detailed example of modification or improvement of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification is for the range of the confirmation object of the designated request information, and the terminal analyzes various data stored in the terminal itself or outside by using the above-described information analysis algorithm. You can check the designation request information. For example, the terminal can analyze data stored in the terminal itself or externally, related to a specific group of a specific app. As another example, a terminal can analyze data stored externally or on the terminal itself, related to all groups of a particular app. As another example, the terminal may analyze data stored in the terminal itself or externally related to a specific app as well as one or more other apps that can be driven by the terminal.

The second detailed example of modification or improvement of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification also relates to the scope of the confirmation object of the designation request information. That is, although it may vary depending on the structure or function of the terminal, the network structure or function that the terminal can use, in general, the terminal can check the designation request information by analyzing data stored in various locations by using the above-described information analysis algorithm. Therefore, the terminal can analyze its own database, analyze a database stored in a central (or location) server, or analyze a database stored in a cloud storage. You can also analyze databases that can be accessed over the Internet.

A third detailed example of a modification or refinement of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to terminal settings related to the verification of designation request information. That is, even if the user does not directly generate the designation signal, the user can set the setting of the terminal or the app so that the terminal proactively confirms the "designation information request" from the specific content. As an example, the user may set the terminal settings so that whenever the user creates content regardless of the type of app, the terminal always checks whether the content contains designation request information or only in a specific case. Alternatively, the user may set the terminal settings so that the terminal can always check whether or not designation request information is included in the content whenever content is created with a specific app. Or, whenever a user creates content in a specific group established in the app by using a specific app, the terminal settings can be set so that the terminal can always check whether the content contains designation request information or only in a specific case. . Or, regardless of the type of app, type of group, or type of content, whenever a user creates content and sends or attempts to send it to a specific member, the terminal always determines whether the content contains the specified request information or in a specific case. You can set the settings of the terminal so that it can only be checked.

A fourth detailed example of modification or improvement of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a method of generating or using a designation signal according to confirmation of the designation request information. That is, when the terminal analyzes various data using the various information analysis algorithms and checks the designation request information from the transmitted content or the received content, the terminal may generate a designation signal automatically or after a user's confirmation. For example, when the terminal checks the designation request information in the content generated by the user, the terminal may automatically generate a designation signal for the content.

Alternatively, if the terminal checks the designation request information from the content generated by the user, the terminal may request the user's confirmation before generating the designation signal for the content. For example, the terminal displays the selection window 38 on the image unit 11 as shown in [Fig. 36], and may request the user to select a designated recipient or confirm the generation of a designated signal. When the user confirms this by clicking "Yes" in the selection window 38, the terminal generates designation request information and transmits the contents to various members in the above various ways. However, if the user clicks "No" in the selection window 38 or does not click "Yes" within a certain period of time, the terminal considers the content as non-specified content without generating the specified request information, and all members of a specific group. Can be sent to.

Each of the embodiments and detailed examples of the sixth exemplary aspect may be interchangeable with the embodiments or detailed examples of different aspects described above and described below. Accordingly, the various embodiments and detailed examples of the sixth aspect are applied to the corresponding characteristics of [1] different embodiments or details of the same aspect, different embodiments or different details of the same aspect, as long as they do not conflict with each other, or , [2] may be included in the corresponding property, [3] replace the corresponding property, [4] be replaced by the corresponding property, or [5] be mixed with the corresponding property.

3 . Utilizing designated content from the user's point of view

Various terminals of the present specification may generate "designated signals" and use them to generate "designated contents" or "non-designated contents". In addition, the terminal may generate and transmit or receive various data packets such as "designated data packet" or "non-designated data packet" including designated content or non-designated content.

In general, unconfirmed content that a user has not checked by not driving a specific app or not opening a specific group window of the app includes designated content and non-designated content. Therefore, if the number of unconfirmed icon badges for the app or group (that is, the number of unconfirmed content) is large, even if the number of unconfirmed specified content is small, the user will review all unconfirmed content and it is long to check the specified content. It may take time and effort.

In order to solve the problem of the above paragraph, the terminal of the present specification uses the characteristics of the specified content, the characteristics of the non-designated content, or the characteristics of the specified signal, so that the user can easily read or check only the unconfirmed specified content selectively among all unconfirmed content. You can do it. To this end, when displaying various contents in the content window, [1] unconfirmed and unspecified contents are displayed by simplifying or minimizing, but unconfirmed and designated contents are displayed as they are or highlighted, or [2] unconfirmed and unspecified contents are not displayed, and are unconfirmed. Only the specified content can be displayed as it is or by highlighting it. Therefore, when the user checks the specified content included in the unconfirmed content, interference caused by the unspecified content can be removed or minimized, and as a result, the user can more easily check the unidentified specified content mixed with the unidentified unspecified content. .

In addition, confirmation-designated content and non-confirmation-designated content are also included in the confirmation content that is checked by opening a specific group window of the app after the user drives a specific app. Therefore, when the number of confirmation contents for the group of the app is large, even when the number of confirmation designation contents is small, a long time and effort may be required for the user to reconfirm confirmation designation contents related to himself/herself.

The terminal of the present specification can be configured so that the user can selectively check only the confirmation-designated contents among confirmation contents that have already been checked in the contents window by using the characteristics of the designated content and the non-designated contents or the characteristics of the designated signal. To this end, the terminal displays [1] simplified or minimized confirmation-designated contents, but displays confirmation-designated contents as it is or highlights them, or [2] does not display confirmation-undesignated contents, while only confirmation-designated contents are displayed. Can be displayed.

Therefore, when the user checks the confirmation-designated content included in the confirmation content, interference caused by the non-confirmation-designated contents can be eliminated or minimized, and thus the user can easily and selectively check the confirmation-designated contents. 37 to 38 are examples of configurations and methods for selectively displaying designated content on an image unit.

The unconfirmed content includes unconfirmed unspecified content and unconfirmed specified content. As an example, if all N unconfirmed contents are unconfirmed and unspecified contents, the unconfirmed contents include N unconfirmed unspecified contents and 0 unconfirmed designated contents. Conversely, if all N unconfirmed contents are unconfirmed designated contents, the unconfirmed contents are N It includes unidentified specified content and 0 unidentified unspecified content. A seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to various configurations and a method of executing a task in which unidentified unspecified content is selectively displayed by simplifying or minimizing or omitting it. That is, if the user provides an appropriate user input, the terminal can display unconfirmed unspecified content by simplifying or minimizing it, while displaying unidentified specified content as it is or highlighting it. Accordingly, the user can easily check the unconfirmed designated content among the unconfirmed content. Unless there is a conflicting description, for convenience of description, unconfirmed unspecified content is referred to as "(unconfirmed) unspecified content" or simply "unspecified content", and unconfirmed specified content is referred to as "(unconfirmed) specified content" or simply "designated content". Refers to.

The first embodiment of the seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example of a configuration and a method of executing a task in which unidentified specified content is emphasized compared to unidentified unspecified content when displaying unspecified content and unverified content including the specified content. For example, after receiving a specific user input, the terminal may highlight and display unidentified designated content compared to unidentified unspecified content in a content window displayed on the image unit. [Fig. 37] is an example of a configuration and method in which the terminal displays unidentified unspecified content and unverified specified content together in a content window, but highlights and displays unidentified specified content.

As shown in [Fig. 37], when the terminal 10 displays app icons for a plurality of apps on the image unit 11, and displays an unconfirmed icon badge for the app together, the user is prompted by various input units 12A of the terminal. , 12B, 12C) or by manipulating the app icon displayed on the image unit 11 in the form of a touch screen, the desired app can be driven. When the terminal 10 drives the app, the group window 15 of the app is displayed on the imaging unit 11. When a user manipulates a group icon 16 he or she desires among a plurality of group icons, the terminal 10 displays the content window 19 of the group on the image unit 11. The terminal 10 may display unconfirmed content that the user has not yet confirmed in the content window 19, and in this case, the order of the content displayed in the window 19 may not necessarily be an order according to the content reception time. . In contrast, the terminal 10 displays the content according to the content reception time in the content window 19, but may display the most recently received content at the bottom.

Thereafter, the terminal 10 may highlight the unconfirmed designated content 31L included in the unconfirmed content displayed on the content window 19 at various viewpoints. As an example, the terminal 10 [1] displays the (unconfirmed) unspecified content 31N as usual whenever the content window 19 is displayed, but compared to the (unconfirmed) designated content 31L, or [2] After displaying the content window 19 on the image unit 11, only when the user manipulates a specific soft button or hard button and provides a specific user input, highlight the specified content 31L, or [3] When a user manipulates a specific soft button or a hard button and provides a specific user input before displaying the content window 19 on the unit 11, the specified content 31L can be emphasized.

Alternatively, if the user provides an additional user input, the terminal 10 removes the emphasis on the designated content 31L, and accordingly, the designated content and the non-designated content may be displayed on the content window 19 in the same manner without any difference. In addition, the user may emphasize the specified content 31L or cancel the emphasis on the specified content 31L by applying a user input such as a specific movement, gesture, or voice.

The terminal 10 may also highlight the designated content 31L in various modes. For example, the terminal displays [1] the designated content (31L) by highlighting it with a specific font, color, thickness, etc., [2] the background of the designated content (31L) is highlighted and displayed, or [3] the designated content (31L) [4] The specified content 31L may be highlighted and displayed by [4] other methods. Alternatively, when the user manipulates the specific soft button or hard button again or manipulates a different soft button or hard button, the terminal 10 may start or stop highlighting the designated content 31L. Accordingly, in the content window 19, designated content and non-designated content may be displayed identically without difference from each other.

The second embodiment of the seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification is when displaying unconfirmed content including both (unconfirmed) unspecified content and (unconfirmed) specified content, the (unconfirmed) specified content is displayed in its original form or by highlighting it. However, (unconfirmed) unspecified content is an example of a simplified or minimized configuration and a method of executing a task. For example, a terminal receiving a specific user input may simplify or minimize (unconfirmed) unspecified content in the content window displayed on the image unit, while (unconfirmed) designated content may be displayed in its original form or highlighted. [Fig. 38] is an example of a configuration and a method in which a terminal emphasizes, simplifies or minimizes various contents in a content window.

The terminal 10 of FIG. 38 displays a plurality of app icons and unconfirmed icon badges together in the same configuration or method as in the first embodiment of the seventh exemplary aspect described above. After the user drives the specific app, the terminal displays the group window 15 of the app. When the user selects a specific group, the terminal 10 displays the content window 19 of the group.

The terminal 10 may selectively simplify or minimize the non-designated content 31N among a plurality of unconfirmed content displayed on the content window 19. For example, the terminal 10 [1] replaces the non-designated content 31N with various simplified displays 36 whenever the content window 19 is displayed, or [2] displays the content window 19, Whenever the user manipulates a specific soft button or hard button, the user may replace the non-designated content 31N with the simplified display 36, or [3] before the image unit 11 displays the content window 19. Whenever a specific soft button or hard button is operated, the non-designated content 31N can be replaced with the simplified display 36.

The terminal 10 can simplify or minimize the non-designated content 31N in various ways. For example, the terminal [1] dimly displays the non-designated content 31N, or [2] simplifies the non-designated content 31N. Display in a font, simplified color or simplified form, [3] display unspecified content (31N) in a smaller size, or [4] simplify or minimize non-specified content (31N) using other figures. I can.

Optionally, when the user operates a specific soft button or hard button again or manipulates a different soft button or hard button, the terminal 10 will display the unspecified content 31N in its original shape without further simplifying or minimizing it. I can. Therefore, in the content window 19, designated content and non-designated content may be displayed identically without difference from each other.

The third embodiment of the seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification is a configuration in which when unidentified content including unspecified content and specified content is displayed, the unverified specified content is displayed in its original form or highlighted, but the unconfirmed unspecified content is omitted. And it is an example of how to execute the task.

A terminal receiving a specific user input may not display unidentified and unspecified content by omitting it in the content window displayed on the image unit, while unidentified and designated content may be displayed in its original form or highlighted. As an example, the terminal 10 displays a plurality of apps and unidentified icon badges together in the same manner as in the first embodiment of the seventh exemplary aspect, and then displays the group window 15 of the app. After that, the content window 19 of the group can be displayed.

The terminal 10 may selectively display only the designated content 31L among unconfirmed content displayed on the content window 19 in various ways. For example, the terminal 10 [1] displays only the specified content 31L each time the content window 19 is displayed, or [2] the image unit 11 displays the content window 19 and then the user Only when a soft button or hard button is operated, only the specified content (31L) is displayed, or [3] a user manipulates a specific soft or hard button before the video unit 11 displays the content window 19 , While displaying the content window 19, only the specified content 31L may be displayed.

The terminal 10 may display only the designated content 31L in various ways. For example, the terminal [1] does not display the non-designated contents 31N included between the designated contents 31L by connecting or continuously displaying a plurality of designated contents 31L, or [2] the designated contents ( 31L), but if there is an omitted non-designated content 31N between the designated contents 31L, a gap is displayed between the designated contents 31L so that the user can know that there is an omitted non-designated content 31N. Or [3] if the designated content 31L is displayed, but there is an omitted non-designated content 31N between the contents 31L, the designated content 31L above and below is different in size, background, By displaying in color or font, it is possible to display so that the user can know that there is non-designated content 31N omitted in the meantime.

Optionally, when the user operates a specific soft button or hard button again, or operates a different soft button or hard button, the terminal 10 is located between the designated contents 31L, but the non-designated contents 31N that have not been displayed during that time. Can be displayed. Therefore, in the content window 19, designated content and non-designated content may be displayed identically without difference from each other.

Various terminals, designated content, and designated icon badges of the seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The description below is a detailed example of the modification or improvement, wherein the modification or improvement is applied to [1] the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the seventh exemplary aspect, or [2] the above and the following description of the present specification. It may be applied to the different exemplary aspects of the above, the modification or improvement of the embodiments or detailed examples of the different aspects.

The first detailed example of modification and improvement of the seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification is to simplify, minimize or omit unconfirmed and unspecified content, while displaying unconfirmed specified content as it is or by highlighting it, but to the sender who sent the specified content Is a configuration or method of displaying the past content of the user corresponding to the reason that the sender sent the specified content as the content sent in the past.

For example, when the user receives the specified content from the sender, the user terminal displays the specified content sent by the sender on the video unit, and the user's past content that is the reason for the sender's sending the specified content (for example, the user sends the specified content to the sender). Undesignated content or designated content) may be displayed together on the image unit. If the sender initiates information exchange regardless of the content sent by the user to the sender in the past, and thus there is no past designated content, the terminal displays only the designated content received from the sender.

Accordingly, the user can easily check the reason for sending the specified content to the sender, and based on this, the user can also effectively respond to the sender. In addition, when the specified content sent by the sender is a reply to the content sent to the sender in the past, the user can easily decide not to respond to the sender's content. However, if the specified content sent by the sender is not a reply to the content sent to the sender in the past, but the start of new information exchange, the user may know that it is necessary to send the content corresponding to the reply to the sender.

The second detailed example of the modification or improvement of the seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification is that non-designated content is simplified, minimized or omitted, while the designated content is displayed as is or emphasized, but all (or part of) exchanged between the sender and the user. ) It is about a configuration or method capable of displaying all of the unspecified content or all (or part of) specified content.

For example, when the sender sends the specified content to the user, the terminal or the app may display unidentified content or confirmed content exchanged between the sender and the user on the video unit. In this case, the terminal may [1] simplify or minimize the contents of communication between the user and the rest of the members, or [2] omit the display altogether. Accordingly, the user can easily check all the contents exchanged between the sender and the user.

In addition, if the specified content sent by the sender to the user is a reply to the content sent by the user to the sender in the past, the user may not correspond to the sender's content. However, if the specified content sent by the sender is not a reply to the content sent to the sender in the past, but is the start of new information exchange, the user knows that it is necessary to send the content corresponding to the reply to the sender. have.

Each of the embodiments and detailed examples of the seventh exemplary aspect may be interchangeable with the embodiments or detailed examples of different aspects described above and described below. Accordingly, the various embodiments and detailed examples of the seventh aspect are applied to the corresponding characteristics of [1] different embodiments or details of the same aspect, different embodiments or different details of the same aspect, as long as they do not conflict with each other, or , [2] may be included in the corresponding property, [3] replace the corresponding property, [4] be replaced by the corresponding property, or [5] be mixed with the corresponding property.

The eighth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to various configurations and a method of performing a task in which the content that is not confirmed and is displayed by selectively simplifying or minimizing or omitting the display at all is omitted. Accordingly, if the user provides an appropriate user input, the terminal can display or omit the content not designated for confirmation by simplifying or minimizing it, while the content designated for confirmation can be displayed as it is or by highlighting it. Accordingly, the user can easily check the confirmation-designated content among the confirmation contents.

For example, a terminal receiving a specific user input may display unconfirmed content and confirmed content on an image unit, and in this case, the content may be non-designated content or designated content. When a user provides an additional user input, the terminal may display on a designated or non-designated content video unit exchanged by two or more members other than the user. Accordingly, the user can easily check non-designated content or designated content exchanged between two or more members of the group to which the user belongs.

As an example, the terminal simultaneously displays a plurality of app icons and unidentified icon badges in the same or similar manner as in the first embodiment of the seventh exemplary aspect, displays the group window of the app, and displays the content window of a specific group. Is displayed. As described in various embodiments of the seventh exemplary aspect, the terminal may display a plurality of unconfirmed content and confirmed content in the content window.

Thereafter, when the user designates two members in various ways described in the sixth exemplary aspect without creating content, the terminal transfers various non-designated (or designated) contents exchanged between the two members in the past to the video unit. Can be marked on. At this time, the terminal may display designated content or non-designated content exchanged (unconfirmed or confirmed) by other members other than the two members [1] simplified or minimized, or [2] omitted.

In contrast, the terminal highlights and displays the content exchanged between the two members, while the designated content or non-designated content exchanged by the other members other than the two members may be displayed without being emphasized. In addition, if the user selects more than two members, the terminal may selectively display specified or unspecified content exchanged (verified or unconfirmed) by three or more members.

The terminal may execute the simplified display, minimized display, or omission of the above-described confirmed unspecified content independently or in parallel with the simplification, minimization, or omission of the unidentified unspecified content described in the seventh exemplary aspect. In addition, at the request of the user, the terminal selects [1] unconfirmed specified content, [2] unconfirmed unspecified content, [3] confirmed specified content, or [4] confirmed unspecified content among the contents exchanged by multiple members of a specific group except for the user. Can be displayed selectively.

Each of the embodiments and detailed examples of the eighth exemplary aspect may be interchangeable with the embodiments or detailed examples of different aspects described above and described below. Accordingly, the various embodiments and detailed examples of the eighth aspect are applied to the corresponding characteristics of [1] different embodiments or details of the same aspect, different embodiments or different details of the same aspect, as long as they do not conflict with each other, or , [2] may be included in the corresponding property, [3] replace the corresponding property, [4] be replaced by the corresponding property, or [5] be mixed with the corresponding property.

4. Additional applications of designation signals and designation icon badges

The ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to various configurations and task execution methods in which various designation signals, various designation contents, and various designation icon badges are applied to various apps other than SNS apps, messenger apps, email apps, and groupware software apps. .

In the above, various configurations and task execution methods have been described in which various designation signals, various designation contents, and various designation icon badges of the present specification are applied to wired/wireless phone transmission/reception apps, SNS apps, groupware software apps, messenger apps, or email apps. For example, in the case of a wired/wireless phone transmission/reception app, the terminal may display the number of unconfirmed incoming calls using an unconfirmed icon badge. In addition, the terminal analyzes the message left by the sender after the unconfirmed incoming call to confirm the specified request information, or by confirming the specified request information added to the specific code accompanying the unconfirmed incoming call, the unconfirmed icon badge and the (unconfirmed) specified icon badge. Can be displayed.

In addition to this, as described above, the terminal uses a designated icon badge, for example, [1] the caller of the incoming call that the user did not answer, the caller's phone number, other information of the caller, or the time of the call, [2] for a certain period of time ( Or after a certain time), the number of inbound calls that have not been answered, the caller, the caller's phone number, other information of the caller, or the time of the call, [3] the number of inbound calls that the user has answered for a certain period of time (or after a certain time), the caller. , Caller's telephone number, caller's other information, or call time, [4] number of voice messages left to the user, caller, caller's telephone number, caller's other information, or message recording time, or [5] of wired or wireless telephone equipment. Information such as information related to operating status or error status can be displayed.

In particular, the push notification that the designated icon badge can display is limited to [1] unconfirmed information (or related content) that the user has not yet confirmed among the above information (or related content), or [2] received after a certain time. It may be limited to all unconfirmed information (or related content), or [3] may be related to all confirmed information (or related content) received after a specific time.

As another example, in the case of an SNS app, a groupware software app, a messenger app, or an email app, the terminal may display various information (or related content) to the user using an unconfirmed icon badge. Therefore, in the case of SNS apps, the terminal can display the number of unconfirmed content (i.e., unconfirmed messages) using the unconfirmed icon badge, and the number of unconfirmed specified content (i.e., specified messages) included in the unconfirmed message using the specified icon badge. have. In addition, the terminal may display the above-described various information exchanged using the SNS app as designated content.

In particular, various embodiments or detailed examples of the first to eighth exemplary aspects described above are descriptions for SNS apps mounted on various data processing terminals of the present specification, so various designation signals and various designation in the present specification Further description of the case of applying the content and various designated icon badges to the SNS app will be omitted.

In the case of groupware software apps, messenger apps, or email apps, the terminal displays the number of unconfirmed content (i.e., unconfirmed messages or emails) using an unconfirmed icon badge, while unconfirmed designation included in unidentified content using a designated icon badge. It is also possible to display the number of contents or contents. In addition, the terminal may display the above-described various information (or related content) exchanged using a groupware software app, a messenger app, or an email app as designated content (ie, a designated message).

Therefore, push information that can be transmitted and received using various communication apps such as SNS app, groupware software app, messenger app, or email app, and push notifications for the push information can be transmitted and received using wired/wireless phone transmission/reception apps. It is the same or similar to the push information and push notifications therefor. In addition, the terminal generates the above-described various designated signals using an SNS app, a groupware software app, a messenger app, or an email app, generates a designated data packet including the signal, and then transmits and receives the data packet or content, or The task execution order is the same as the configuration or task execution order in which the terminal generates or transmits/receives using a wired/wireless phone transmission/reception app, and thus further description thereof will be omitted.

As described above, the first to eighth exemplary aspects of the present specification, various designation signals, designated content and designated icon badges exemplified in the embodiments or detailed examples of each aspect are SNS apps, groupware software apps, messenger apps, or email apps. And other apps can be applied in the same or similar configuration or method. The following describes a configuration and method when applying various designated signals, designated content, and designated icon badges to a schedule management app, an advertisement display app, an event notification app, and a notification app.

The first embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method for applying the various designation signals, designation content, and designation icon badges to a schedule management app. In particular, the terminal can apply various configurations and methods of the first to eighth aspects for designation signals and designation icon badges to various schedule management apps. 39 and 40 are examples of a configuration and method of applying various designation signals, designated content, and designated icon badges of the present specification to a schedule management app.

The terminal in FIG. 39 is configured to place an unidentified icon badge 21 and a designated icon badge 23 on the right side of the app icon 20 representing the schedule management app or corresponding to the U/I of the app, respectively, up and down. This is an example of a case. The terminal can display various information using the badges 21 and 23. For example, the terminal can notify the user that 7 schedules are scheduled on the same day (or during a specific time) using the unconfirmed icon badge 21, and 2 of the 7 schedules using the designated icon badge 23 This [1] is an important schedule to the user, [2] a meeting convened by the user, [3] a meeting in which the user is in charge of presentation, or [4] a meeting in which the user is responsible for progress. Accordingly, the user can visually recognize the number of specific schedules and various information about them through the designated icon badge 23.

In the case of [Fig. 40], the terminal displays an unidentified icon badge 21 on the right side of the app icon 20, and a plurality of designated icon badges 23A, 23B, and 23C around it. In particular, the terminal can display various information by differently manipulating the backgrounds of the designated icon badges 23A, 23B, and 23C. For example, in the terminal, the background of the designated icon badge (23A) [1] is displayed in a dark color to display a work-related schedule, [2] a medical-related schedule is displayed by displaying a hatch pattern, or [3] by a diagonal pattern. Family-related schedules can be displayed. Accordingly, the user can easily recognize the number or contents of the schedule only with the size, shape, color, location, or background of the designated icon badge.

In addition, the terminal can display various push information for various schedules in the form of push notifications by manipulating various characteristics such as the size, shape, location, color, and number of designated icon badges. Examples of such push information are [1] the number, time, place, or content for attendees of an upcoming event, [2] the number, time, place, or content for attendees, [3] confirmed but not attended. Contents related to the number, time, place, or agenda of an unscheduled schedule, or [4] content related to the number, time, or place of the schedule in which the user is specially in charge of the schedule. Accordingly, the terminal may display one or more of the push information using the designated icon badge 23. The user or terminal either [1] restricts the push notification to only unconfirmed information (or related content) that the user has not yet confirmed, or [2] all unconfirmed and confirmed information received after a certain time (or Related content).

Designated content related to the schedule management app can be generated by various subjects. For example, after a member of a specific group of a specific app determines the schedule, the schedule may be designated as designated content and then sent to the user. Alternatively, the user may determine the schedule, designate it as designated content, and send it to members of the group including himself/herself. Or, after the terminal receives the schedule from the user or member of the group, analyzes the schedule or information related to the schedule using various information analysis algorithms, and if the schedule is determined to be important to the user, it creates the designated content. And send it to the user.

Alternatively, if it is determined that the schedule is not important as a result of analysis using the algorithm, the terminal may display the schedule as non-designated content. If the terminal determines that the schedule conflicts with other schedules (that is, when the schedule is entered, the time overlaps with another schedule already set, or if it is difficult to attend another schedule), the terminal [1] the user attends the schedule. The schedule may be regarded as an unnecessary schedule and classified as non-designated content, or [2] the schedule may be displayed as designated content so that the user can readjust the schedule.

As described above, the task of discriminating the content included in the unconfirmed content into designated content or non-designated content is relative. Therefore, when the terminal selects the designated content in advance using various information analysis algorithms, the terminal can establish various criteria for the above distinction. Examples of such criteria are [1] user preference, [2] user's past. Life characteristics, [3] contents exchanged by the user with other members, [4] designated contents among contents related to the user, or [5] terminal settings. A terminal that has generated the designated content in advance may request a user to confirm whether the designated content is designated by generating various visual signals, an audible signal, or a tactile signal. The various configurations of this paragraph may be applied to different embodiments of this ninth exemplary aspect to be described below, as well as to different embodiments or details of different exemplary aspects.

A second embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method for applying the various designation signals, designation content, and designation icon badges to an advertisement display app. In particular, the terminal may apply various configurations or methods of the first to eighth aspects for designation signals or designation icon badges to various advertisement display apps. 41 and 42 are examples of a configuration and method of applying various designation signals, designated content, and designated icon badges of the present specification to an advertisement display app.

The terminal of [Fig. 41] displays an unidentified icon badge 21 and a designated icon badge 23 on the right side of the app icon 20 up and down, and various information can be displayed in different configurations or methods. Uses the unconfirmed icon badge (21) to inform the user that [1] there are 23 discount sales on the same day (or during a specific time), or [2] that the purchase or delivery of a total of 23 items ordered by the user is ready, or [3] It is possible to notify that the purchase or delivery of 23 items that are the same or similar to the items that the user is interested in is possible, or [4] that 23 new products are available for purchase.

Alternatively, the terminal may use the unconfirmed icon badge 21 to notify the unconfirmed content sent by the advertisement provider regardless of the user's request or interest. That is, the terminal uses the unconfirmed icon badge 21 to inform the user that [1] there are 23 unconfirmed contents related to the goods sent by the advertising provider, or [2] unconfirmed contents sent by the advertisement provider but not directly related to the goods. 23, or [3] may notify that the coupon sent by the advertisement provider is 23.

In addition, the terminal may provide information different from the unconfirmed icon badge 21 to the user by using the designated icon badge 23. For example, the terminal uses a designated icon badge 23 to [1] announce that two out of 23 planned discount sales on the day (or during a specific time) are record-high, or [2] 23 items that users can order. Two of them may be notified that the user has listed items in the list of preferred items, or [3] the deadline of two of the 23 discount sales currently in progress is the same day (or during a specific time). Accordingly, the user can recognize the number of items and various information on the items he or she is interested in or the advertisement provider is selling through the designated icon badge 23.

The terminal of FIG. 42 may display a plurality of designated icon badges 23A, 23B, and 23C around the app icon 20 without displaying the unidentified icon badge 21. The terminal may display designation icon badges 23A, 23B, and 23C of different shapes, for example, the number of designation icon badges 23A indicates that the discount width for a specific item is 83%, and designation icon badges (23B) informs the user that the discount on the item is a cash discount, and the designated icon badge 23C may inform the user that the item price after the discount is $723 or that the discount width is $723 when converted into cash. Accordingly, the user can easily recognize the discount width, discount period, and the price of an object only by the size, shape, color, location, or background of the designated icon badge.

The terminal can display various push information for various advertisements in the form of a push notification by manipulating various characteristics such as the size, shape, location, color, or number of designated icon badges. The terminal can deliver various contents through push information. Examples of the contents include [1] messages such as texts, symbols, texts related to advertisements, number, sender or reception time, [2] number of image files related to advertisements, Sender or reception time, [3] number of voice files related to advertisement, sender or reception time, [4] number of advertisements related to goods and services requested or reserved by the user in advance, sender or reception time, [5] Number of advertisements containing special discounts or other benefits, sender or reception time, [6] number of advertisements related to pre-populated user preferences, sender or reception time, or [7] user's current location, user's on-the-go The number of advertisements related to the expected arrival location, the user's future location according to the user's schedule, the sender or reception time, and the like. In particular, the user or terminal may limit the push notification to [1] unconfirmed information (or related content) that the user did not check among the push information, or [2] limited to all unconfirmed information (or related content) received after a certain time. Or [3] can be limited to all confirmation information (or related content) received after a certain time.

Designated content related to the advertisement display app can be generated by various subjects. For example, after a member of a specific group of a specific app selects a specific advertisement, the advertisement may be designated as specified content and then sent to a user. Alternatively, when a user selects a specific product from a specific group, a product provider (for example, a merchant, a website, etc.) may select content related to the product, designate it as designated content, and send it to the user. Alternatively, the terminal may receive the website of the product provider or the content sent by the product provider, analyze the content using various information analysis algorithms, and then generate the content as designated content if the content is important to the user. .

Instead of displaying the designated content related to the advertisement sent by the advertisement provider as unconditionally designated content, the terminal may check whether the designated content is the content that the user needs to check by using various information analysis algorithms. For example, the terminal may display designated content sent by an advertisement provider as designated content or as non-designated content in consideration of the user's preference, past purchase history, and content sent by the user. Through this, the terminal may display designated content sent by an advertisement provider as non-designated content or as a spam advertisement.

The terminal analyzes the user's activity or situation related to different apps installed in the terminal, such as SNS app, groupware software app, messenger app, email app, schedule management app, event notification app, notification app, etc. The advertisement may be selected and displayed to the user as designated content directly or using an advertisement display app. For example, when a user visits a hospital due to an emergency situation, the terminal may display advertisements related to hospitals or doctors that the user may visit, advertisements for treatments required by the user, and the like as designated content.

As described above, the task of discriminating the content included in the unconfirmed content into designated content or non-designated content is relative. Therefore, if the terminal selects the designated content in advance, the terminal uses various information analysis algorithms, but [1] the user's preference, [2] the user's past purchase history, [3] the terminal settings, and [4] the product provider The stock or logistics-related situation of the company, or [5] other databases, etc. can be used as the criteria for the above distinction. When the terminal generates the specified content, the terminal may generate various visual, audible, or tactile signals to allow the user to quickly check the content. Various configurations of this paragraph may be applied to different embodiments of the ninth exemplary aspect, as well as to different embodiments or details of different exemplary aspects.

A third embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method for applying the various designation signals, designation content, and designation icon badges to an event notification app. In particular, the terminal may apply various configurations or methods of the first to eighth aspects for designation signals or designation icon badges to various event notification apps. [Fig. 43] and [Fig. 44] are examples of the configuration and method of applying various designation signals, designated content, and designated icon badges of the present specification to an event notification app.

The terminal in [Fig. 43] displays an unidentified icon badge 21 and a designated icon badge 23 on the right side of the app icon 20 up and down, and each badge 21 and 23 provides a variety of information to the user. Or it can be delivered in a way. As an example, the terminal informs the user that [1] a total of 23 incidents related to the user's work have occurred, or [2] that a total of 23 incidents of the type previously specified by the user have occurred with an unconfirmed icon badge (21). Or, [3] it may be notified that 23 incidents related to the group to which the user belongs have occurred.

In addition, the terminal may provide information different from the unconfirmed icon badge 21 to the user by using the designated icon badge 23. For example, the terminal uses a designated icon badge (23) to [1] inform that 2 out of 23 incidents are directly related to the user's work, or [2] 2 out of 23 incidents are important to the user. Or, as a result of 23 incidents [3], it is possible to inform the user that there is a high probability that 2 incidents related to the user's work or important to the user will occur. Accordingly, the user can easily recognize a variety of information on the number or content of events he or she is interested in or related to his or her work through the designated icon badge 23. In addition, the terminal may display an image related to the event when displaying the app icon 20. For example, in the case of [Fig. 43], the terminal may visually display that unconfirmed content is related to fire by displaying fire inside the app icon.

The terminal of FIG. 44 is an example of a configuration and method for displaying only a plurality of designated icon badges without displaying an unidentified icon badge inside or around an app icon. To this end, the terminal may display a plurality of designated icon badges 23A, 23B, and 23C of different shapes or sizes. For example, the number on the designated icon badge 23A indicates that the interest rate has increased by 0.5%, the designated icon badge 23B indicates that the bond price has changed or may soon change according to the interest rate increase, and the designated icon badge ( 23C) may notify users of changes in stock prices or expected changes in stock prices due to an interest rate increase. Accordingly, the user can easily recognize the number or contents of the event by the size, number, shape, color, location, or background of the designated icon badge.

In addition, the terminal can display various push information on various events in the form of push notifications by manipulating various characteristics such as the size, shape, location, color, and number of designated icon badges. Examples of such push information include [1] information such as the number or content of a specific event previously selected by the user, [2] information such as the number or content of characters, symbols, or texts related to the event, and [3] a specific event and Information on the number or contents of the associated image files or audio files, [4] information on the location or time of occurrence of a specific event, [5] text, symbols, or text related to an economic or political event that may lead to a specific event. There are information related to the number or contents of the lights, or the number of image files or audio files related to the information in [6] above [5], the location of the event, or the time of occurrence.

In addition, examples of the specific events are [1] events related to the safety and health of the user, [2] economic events related to the user's stock, securities or real estate investment, [3] events related to the user's business, or [4] the user , An event related to the user's family member or user friend. In particular, push notifications are limited to [1] unconfirmed information (or related contents) that the user has not yet confirmed, or [2] all unconfirmed and confirmed information (or related contents) received after a certain time. Can be.

Designated content related to the incident notification app can be generated by various subjects. For example, after a member of a specific group of a specific app selects a specific event, the event may be designated as designated content and sent to the user. Alternatively, the terminal may receive content sent from various media, news providers, or news websites, analyze it using the information analysis algorithm, and generate the content as designated content when the content is important to the user. Alternatively, the terminal may access various media, news providers, news websites, and the like, search for content important to the user by using the information analysis algorithm, and generate the content as designated content.

As described above, the task of discriminating the content included in the unconfirmed content into designated content or non-designated content is relative. Therefore, when the terminal selects the designated content in advance using various information analysis algorithms, the terminal can establish various criteria for the above distinction. Examples of such criteria are [1] the user's job, [2] the user's preference. , [3] the user's past history related to a specific event, [4] content or designated content related to the user, or [5] terminal settings. A terminal that has generated the designated content in advance may request a user to confirm whether the designated content is designated by generating various visual signals, an audible signal, or a tactile signal.

Alternatively, the drone is an intermediate form, and in some cases it moves or executes a task without a user command, but in other cases, it can move or execute a task only if there is a user command. Therefore, regardless of any type of drone, the user, terminal, or drone creates various contents, sends the contents to each other in the form of undesignated data packets or designated data packets, or the designated signal, unidentified icon badge or designated icon badge, etc. Can be used.

[Fig. 45] to [Fig. 52] illustrate various configurations and methods for applying various designated signals, designated contents, designated icon badges, etc. to various terminals or devices defined in the fifth embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification. This is an example.

The first detailed example of the fifth embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification is data for monitoring or controlling the opening/closing, starting, operating state or operation of all or part of the vehicle, including manned and unmanned vehicles. It is an example of a configuration or method of applying the above-described designation signal, designated content, or designated icon badge to a processing unit. For convenience of explanation, detailed examples to be described below are examples of the operation of the entire vehicle. 45 and 46 are examples of a configuration and method for applying a designated signal, designated content, and designated icon badge to a vehicle management app.

In the case of [Fig. 45], the terminal displays an unidentified icon badge 21 and a designated icon badge 23 around the app icon 20 for management or operation of a manned vehicle or an unmanned vehicle. The terminal may display a variety of information by using the unidentified icon badge 21. For example, the terminal may display content prompting to check the right headlight, left front wheel, etc. using a plurality of detailed icons 20S on the icon 20 for the entire vehicle. The terminal can also display the detailed icon 20S in U/I form on the image unit. Accordingly, when the user manipulates the detailed icon 20S, the terminal displays detailed information on the condition of the part, maintenance, etc. Can be displayed.

In addition, the terminal may display additional information using an unidentified icon badge 21 or an unidentified designated icon badge 23. Examples of the above information include [1] Information on the status of each part, [2] Information that the user should check before restarting vehicle operation, [3] Information necessary to drive the vehicle to the destination according to the user's schedule when the user restarts vehicle operation , [4] Information on the place where the vehicle was parked after the user has finished operating the vehicle, [5] Information on the user's day schedule and the vehicle driving plan according to the schedule linked with the schedule management app or saved by itself, or [ 6] There is information on traffic violation tickets received by users due to traffic violations, etc.

In particular, examples of [1] in the above paragraph include the amount of remaining fuel, the amount of remaining battery charge, the driving distance based on the amount of fuel or charge, the condition of tires, the condition of other parts, and the driving record of the day. Examples of [2] in the above paragraph include the example of [1] above, the schedule for the day, travel plans, and parts that need maintenance or repair. Examples of [3] in the above paragraph include a destination-related schedule, an agenda or participant related to the schedule, a destination address, and various routes through which the destination can be reached.

Examples of unconfirmed designated content include [1] content created by a manned or unmanned vehicle and sent to the user, [2] content sent by the vehicle to the user as a reply to the content sent by the user, and [3] Content sent by the unit to other units of the same vehicle and sent to the user, [4] Content sent by the vehicle selecting the user as a designated recipient, and sent to other units of the vehicle, or [5] It is selected as a designated recipient, and includes content generated only to the user, not to the various units of the vehicle.

When the vehicle does not generate a designation signal, the unconfirmed designation content may be a content in which the terminal extracts or extracts "designation request information" using the various information analysis algorithms. Alternatively, when the vehicle does not generate a designated signal, the unconfirmed designated content has a relatively high need for confirmation by the user (for example, when compared with the unconfirmed undesignated content) as a result of analysis by the terminal using the information analysis algorithm. It may be content.

As described above, the terminal can display information different from the unidentified icon badge 21 by using the designated icon badge 23, and for this purpose, the size, number, shape, color, location, background, etc. of the designated icon badge 23 Can be displayed in a different size, number, shape, color, location, background, etc. than the unidentified icon badge 21. Accordingly, by visually checking the size, number, shape, color, location, and background of the designated icon badge, the user can easily recognize the state of the vehicle and the number or contents of tasks to be checked by the user.

If the app icon in [Fig. 45] is an icon for an app related to management of a vehicle on which the operation has been completed, the app icon 20 in [Fig. 46] can be regarded as an icon for an app related to management of a vehicle that is currently being operated. have. The terminal of [Fig. 46] displays a total of three unidentified icon badges 21, 21A, 21B and one designated icon badge 23 around the app icon 20 together. The unconfirmed icon badge 21 displays "2+1". The badge 21 can display various information, but in this example, it is assumed that two unconfirmed and unspecified contents that the user has not yet confirmed, as well as one unconfirmed designated contents, etc. are displayed.

In particular, the terminal of FIG. 46 may visually display various information displayed using the unconfirmed icon badges 21A and 21B around the app icon 20. For example, the unidentified undesignated icon badge 21A may indicate that the place is a law firm frequently used by the user, while the unidentified non-designated icon badge 21B may indicate that there is a space for parking at the place. On the other hand, the unconfirmed designated icon badge 23 may display information that the user needs to confirm or determine higher than that of the non-designated icon badges 21A and 21B. For example, the terminal may inquire about whether to go straight or turn right at an oncoming intersection by using the designated icon badge 23.

The second detailed example of the fifth embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification includes the various designation signals, various designation contents, various designation icon badges, and the like. This is an example applied to a data processing unit in charge of monitoring and controlling the data.

However, the configuration or method of various designated contents, designated data packets, designated icon badges, etc. related to vehicle management or operation described above may be applied in the same or similar manner to management or operation of drones. Of course, the vehicle moves on land while the drone moves in the air, but the designated content, designated data packets and icon badges related to drone operation are the same or similar to various designated contents, designated data packets, and designated icon badges related to vehicle operation. Do. Therefore, a detailed description of the configuration and method of the management or operation of the drone, such as designated content, designated data packet, and designated icon badge, will be omitted.

The third detailed example of the fifth embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an Internet of Things network including various control units, data processing units, etc. for the various designation signals, various designation contents, and various designation icon badges. It is an example applied to an electronic device that is connected to an Internet network and includes a control unit, a data processing unit, and the like. Accordingly, the user manages the entire IoT network that he or she can access and can control by using the designated signal, designated content, or designated icon badge of the present specification, or various electronic devices connected to the IoT network by wire or wirelessly. Can manage, manipulate and control appliances or electrical devices.

For convenience of explanation, detailed examples below are examples of managing various devices connected to an IoT network using a personal robot. That is, a personal robot is used as the control unit or data processing unit of the IoT network, but the control of the control unit or data processing unit or data processing efficiency can be improved by using the various designated signals, designated contents, or designated icon badges. I can. [Fig. 47] and [Fig. 48] are examples of a configuration and method for applying a designated signal, designated content, and designated icon badge to an IoT network management app. This is an example of a configuration and method of managing various electronic devices or electric devices connected by using a robot.

The terminal of FIG. 47 may display an app icon 20 for a universal IoT network, and display an unidentified icon badge 21, a hindrance icon badge, and a plurality of detailed app icons 20S. The terminal may display the app icon 20 as an image representing the IoT network, or may display the app icon 20 with a plurality of electronic devices or electric devices connected to each other through the network. In the case of [Fig. 47], the terminal displays an unconfirmed icon badge 21 and an unconfirmed designated icon badge 23, and each badge 21 and 23 has a total of 23 unconfirmed and unspecified contents, of which unconfirmed designated contents Indicates that there are two.

In addition, the terminal may display an app icon 20 including a plurality of detailed icons 20S corresponding to devices included in the network. For example, the terminal of [Fig. 47] displays a personal robot capable of managing and manipulating various devices connected to the IoT network with a black dot in the center. In addition, the terminal of [Fig. 47] indicates to the user that it has received one unconfirmed designated content related to a personal robot and one unconfirmed designated content related to an electric device indicated by a black dot in the upper left ear. In addition, the terminal may display a point corresponding to each device displayed on the app icon 20 as a detailed app icon 20S in the form of U/I. Accordingly, when the user clicks the detailed app icon 20S, the terminal may display options for the current state, problem, or manipulation of each electronic device or electric device linked to the detailed app icon 20S.

The terminal can display app icons and detailed app icons for various IoT networks. For example, IoT networks include [1] smart cities, [2] smart buildings, [3] smart factories, [4] smart homes, [5] smart offices, [6] smart farms, and [7] smart systems. , Or [8] Like a smart grid, the IoT network itself includes a plurality of electronic devices or electric devices, and may directly or indirectly connect them to each other. In particular, the smart system in the preceding sentence may be a solar power generation or wind power generation system, a water treatment system, a traffic control system, and the like. Alternatively, the aforementioned IoT network may include and connect a plurality of electronic devices or electric devices. Therefore, the IoT network includes one or more smart devices, and examples of the smart devices or simply "devices" include [1] smart home appliances, [2] smart lighting devices, [3] smart security devices, and [4] smart vehicles. , [5] smart aircraft, [6] smart robots, [7] smart drones, [8] smart health devices, [9] Jin smart devices, [10] smart medical devices, [11] smart wearable devices, [12] ] Smart TVs, [13] smart communication devices, [14] smart computer networks (including peripheral devices), or [15] smart (central or location) Internet networks (including servers).

The terminal may display the number or information of various contents by using the unconfirmed icon badge 21 or the unconfirmed designated icon badge 23. Examples of the information include [1] information related to the state, operation, malfunction, repair, etc. of the Internet of Things network or various electronic devices or electric devices included in the network or connected by the network, and [2] the operation of the network or the device. Information related to setting or changing the setting, [3] information related to setting or changing the setting during operation of the network or device, [4] information related to operation for adding or adding one or more of the devices to the network , [5] information related to operation to remove or remove one or more of the devices from the network, [6] information related to maintenance, repair, operation, repair, etc. of the whole (or part of) the network, or [7] the network There are information related to the condition, maintenance, operation, malfunction or operation of the robot that can manipulate all (or part of) of the robot.

In particular, unidentified content is [1] content generated by various devices included in the IoT network and sent to the user, [2] content sent by the device to the user as a reply to the content sent by the user, and [3] the network [4] Content generated by the network or the robot and sent to the user, or [5] The content generated by the network or the robot and sent to the device and sent to the user And sent content. In addition, unconfirmed designated content is [1] the device, robot, or IoT network selects the user as the designated recipient and sends it to all devices belonging to the network, or [2] the device, robot, or IoT network sends the user to the user. It is selected as a designated recipient and includes content generated only to users, not all devices belonging to the network.

The designated content may be a content in which the terminal can extract "designated request information" by using the information analysis algorithm even if the device, robot, IoT network, etc. do not generate a designated signal. Or, even if the device, robot, or IoT network does not generate a designated signal, the designated content needs to be confirmed by the user as a result of analysis by the terminal using the various information analysis algorithms (when compared with unidentified and unspecified content). It may be a relatively high content.

In the case of [Fig. 48], the terminal may display an image acquired by a robot running in a product store equipped with an IoT network as an app icon 20, and a number of unidentified icon badges 21, 21A ( 21B) and a plurality of designated icon badges 23, 23A, and 23B may be displayed on the video unit. The terminal may receive various contents sent by customers visiting the store using an IoT network, a robot, or a specific app, and various contents sent by the store's employees, the network, devices belonging to the network, or robots. Can be received by the terminal. Accordingly, the user can efficiently manage the store, such as directly performing and managing product inventory, customer consultation, sales, payment, etc., both inside and outside the store.

Based on this, the terminal may display the number of contents received after the user finally drives the app by using the unconfirmed icon badge 21. Alternatively, the terminal may use the symbol corresponding to the number as an unidentified icon badge 21A. Alternatively, the terminal may display an unidentified icon badge 21B indicating a place or product related to the unidentified content in the video.

In addition, the terminal may display the number of unconfirmed specified content sent by the IoT network, the robot, and the customer or employee designating the user using the unconfirmed designation icon badge 23. Alternatively, the terminal may display a symbol corresponding to the number on the image and use it as a designation icon badge 23A. Alternatively, the terminal may display a designated icon badge 23B indicating a place or product related to the designated content on the video.

For example, the terminal of FIG. 48 may display five unconfirmed content received after the user last drives the app as an unconfirmed icon badge 21 and an unconfirmed icon badge 21A, respectively. In addition, the terminal may display a total of two unconfirmed designated contents included in the unconfirmed contents as an unconfirmed designated icon badge 23 or an additional designated icon badge 23A. In addition, the terminal may directly display the image as two unconfirmed designated icon badges 23B and three unidentified undesignated icon badges 21B. Accordingly, the user can easily check the unidentified unspecified content and the article or place related to the unidentified designated content through various icon badges.

The terminal may display the number or information of various contents by using the unconfirmed icon badge 21 or the unconfirmed designated icon badge 23. Examples of the information include [1] information related to the state, operation, malfunction, repair, etc. of various electronic devices or electric devices included in the Internet of Things network or connected by the network, and [2] stores verified by the network or the robot. Relevant information, [3] information on sold items identified by the above network or robot, [4] items that need to be organized or specific parts of the store, [5] information related to inventory changes due to sales of items or bringing in new items, [ 6] Information requested by the customer, or [7] information requested by the employee.

Unidentified content is [1] Internet of Things network, content generated by the device, robot, customer or employee belonging to the network and sent to the user, [2] the network, the device, robot, customer, or employee sent by the user Content sent to the user in response to the content that was previously sent to the user, or [3] the content sent to the other by one of the network, the device, the robot, the customer, or the employee and sent to the user. For unconfirmed designated content [1] the network, the device, the robot, the customer or the employee selects the user as the designated recipient, and the content sent to the network, the device, the robot, the customer, the employee as well as the user, or [2] The network, the device, the robot, the customer or the employee selects a user as a designated recipient, and there are content generated only to the user, not all devices belonging to the network.

Designated contents are contents that allow the terminal to extract "designated request information" using various information analysis algorithms, even if the network, device, robot, customer or employee does not generate a designated signal, or [2] a terminal As a result of analysis using the information analysis algorithm, the content may have a relatively high necessity for the user to check (when compared with unconfirmed unspecified content).

The fourth detailed example of the fifth embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification provides the various designation signals, various designation contents, various designation icon badges, etc., for various household, industrial, or military applications including various control units or data processing units. This is an example applied to a robot. Accordingly, the user can manage, manipulate, and control the robot using the designated signal, designated content, or designated icon badge of the present specification.

In particular, the user can use the robot as a control unit or data processing unit of the IoT network, and thus, easily improve the control efficiency of the robot and the efficiency of data processing by using various designated signals, designated contents, or designated icon badges. can do. However, the case of using a robot to manipulate and control the IoT network or various devices connected to the network has already been illustrated in [Fig. 47]. In the following description, a detailed example of managing a house without an IoT network with a robot will be described. I will do it. 49 and 50 are examples of a configuration and method for applying a designated signal, designated content, and designated icon badge to a robot management app.

The terminal of FIG. 49 may display the robot control app as an app icon 20 corresponding to the blueprint of a house, and display an unidentified icon badge 21 and a designated icon badge 23 on the image unit. The robot may send content on a location or a status of a job at which various jobs are executed to the user, and the user terminal may display the received content inside the app icon 20. Accordingly, the user can easily check various contents sent by the robot using the unconfirmed icon badge 21 or the designated icon badge 23. The terminal may display the icon badges 21 and 23 in various configurations and methods by using various configurations or methods described in the first to third detailed examples of the fifth embodiment. Therefore, a detailed description of this will be omitted.

The terminal of FIG. 50 may display the image acquired by the driving robot as an app icon 20 on the image unit, and display an unidentified icon badge 21 and a designated icon badge 23 on the image unit. . In addition, the robot may send content on a location or a status of a job at which various jobs are executed to the user, and accordingly, the terminal may display the number or contents of the received content in the app icon 20. Accordingly, the user can easily check various contents sent by the robot using an unconfirmed icon badge 21, a designated icon badge 23, or the like. The terminal may display the icon badges 21 and 23 in a configuration and method similar to the various configurations and methods described in the first to third detailed examples of the fifth embodiment. Therefore, a detailed description of this will be omitted.

A fifth detailed example of the fifth embodiment of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification is an example in which the various designated signals, designated contents, designated icon badges, and the like are applied to various U-healthcare apps. Therefore, the user can manage his or her health by using the designated signal, designated content or designated icon badge of the present specification, efficiently cope with the occurrence of an emergency situation, manage the health of members belonging to a specific group, and various preventive measures. Can take. 51 and 52 are examples of a configuration and method for applying a designated signal, designated content, and designated icon badge to a health care app.

The terminal of FIG. 51 displays an image related to health on the image unit of the app icon 20, and displays an unidentified icon badge 21 and an unidentified designated icon badge 23 together. The terminal of the above example may notify that the user has received a total of 7 contents related to the user's health with an unconfirmed icon badge 21 after the user finally drives and terminates the app. In addition, the terminal may inform the designation icon badge 23 that a total of two contents among the unconfirmed contents are relatively important contents.

After various subjects generate content related to the user's health, it can be sent to the user. In particular, examples of such various subjects include [1] a doctor or medical institution that analyzes the user's health in real time, at a specific time or in a specific situation, and [2] a medical device of the U-healthcare network that is or is not connected with the medical institution. Or a medical institution or medical staff belonging to the network, [3] a wearable device that can be worn by the user and can obtain or analyze one or more biometric information from the user, [4] fixed to the user terminal or detachably mounted on the terminal. A biometric information analysis device that can be used, or [5] a medical insurance institution, a medical institution linked to the insurance, a doctor, or a medical device.

The various subjects may check the user's health status by analyzing the user's health-related content secured through various methods, and based on this, allow the user to take a response thereto. To this end, various subjects may send the above-described undesignated content or designated content to the user according to the user's health status.

For example, when the user terminal receives the non-designated content from the various subjects, the terminal determines that the user's health status is generally good, displays the result to the user, and, if necessary, may notify the corresponding action. However, contents for emergency situations or contents to be checked at a hospital may be more important to users than contents that are not. Accordingly, in this case, the various subjects may send important content to the user as designated content, and the user terminal receiving the content may display the content as designated content on the video unit. If necessary, the terminal may generate the various visual signals, audible or tactile signals, so that the user can easily check the designated content. In this way, the user can call emergency medical personnel, go to the hospital immediately, go to the hospital within the shortest possible time, undergo special checkups, or receive regular checkups according to the number or contents of the contents received by the terminal.

[Fig. 52] is an example of the configuration or method of an icon badge displayed on the video unit so that the terminal confirming the emergency situation takes an urgent response action to the user, wherein the terminal includes an app icon 20 and an unidentified icon badge 21 And an unconfirmed designation icon badge 23 is displayed. In particular, the terminal displays a body picture in the background of the app icon 20, and instead of displaying the designated icon badge 23 as a number "2", the user's body parts related to the two unidentified designated icon badges 23 are displayed. do. Accordingly, the user can easily check the body part that needs emergency medical treatment or treatment among his body parts.

Alternatively, the subject sends contents related to the user's health as non-designated contents, but the user terminal can check the designation request signal by analyzing text, images, or sounds of the non-designated contents using various information analysis algorithms. Accordingly, the user terminal may regard the content as designated content and display the content as designated content on the image unit. Even in this case, the terminal may generate the visual signal, an audible or tactile signal so that the user can easily check the designated content.

Various terminals, designated content, and designated icon badges of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, wherein the modification or improvement is applied to [1] the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the ninth exemplary aspect, or [2] the detailed or The following description may be applied to different exemplary aspects, modifications or improvements of embodiments or detailed examples of different exemplary aspects.

A second detailed example of modification and improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method for allowing a user to immediately respond to unconfirmed designated content through various push notification methods. For example, the terminal may induce a user's response to this by using a different push notification method according to the nature and number of unconfirmed designated content.

For example, various subjects may generate unconfirmed designated content for an emergency situation and send it to the user, and allow the user to respond to the situation immediately or within a short time as possible. To this end, the terminal generates a visual, audible, or tactile signal, and provides it as a push notification to the user, so that the user can directly respond to the situation or respond to the situation using the terminal. In particular, examples of subjects that send unconfirmed specified content to users include [1] members belonging to a specific group of a specific app (for example, co-workers, employees, or customers), [2] user's terminal, [3] sender's terminal, [4] ] Robots, [5] vehicles, [6] drones, [7] IoT networks, or [8] various devices belonging to the IoT network.

[1] In the case of the above situation, [1] the meeting schedule that the user must attend in the case of the schedule management app, [2] in the case of the advertisement display app, the launch of an important discount event for products with high user preference or events with a high discount rate. [3] In the case of the event notification app, the occurrence of an event related to the user's main business, the occurrence of an event related to the user's financial status, or an emergency situation that is fatal to the user's health, [4] Emergency situations based on biometric signals of peers or users with difficult schedules such as boarding an airplane, [5] in the case of vehicle operation apps, the occurrence of situations that require urgent action to change direction or prevent accidents, [6] drones In the case of a management app, a situation that requires manipulation to prevent the fall of a drone occurs. [7] In the case of an IoT network manipulation app, a malfunction of a device belonging to the network occurs, or a fire or theft detected by the device. In the case of an emergency situation of [8] robot operation app, there is an emergency situation detected by a robot, an event that is a precursor to the emergency situation, and a malfunction of the robot.

The various subjects described above send the specified content related to the situation to the user and generate a designation signal together, so that the user terminal can display the content as the designated content. Unlike this, the various subjects send the contents related to the situation to the user as non-designated contents, but the user terminal can check the designation request signal by analyzing text, images, or sounds of the non-designated contents using various information analysis algorithms. Accordingly, the content may be regarded as a designated content, and accordingly, the content may be displayed on an image unit.

A third detailed example of modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method for displaying various icon badges on an image unit driven in various states. Therefore, the terminal [1] the video unit is turned off on the screen in the off state, [2] the video unit is turned on but the user authentication is not completed in the lock state (lock state), or [3] the video unit is turned on. In the unlock state in which user authentication is also completed, various icon badges can be displayed on the home screen in various ways. 53 and 54 are examples of the configuration and method of various icon badges displayed in the off state and in the locked state.

For example, when the content received by the terminal after the user last manipulated a specific app does not require urgent confirmation from the user or urgent response from the user, the terminal displays various icon badges as routine data (routine data) while the video unit is turned off. data) can be displayed on the image unit. [Fig. 53] is an example of a configuration and method for displaying various icon badges on an image unit when the image unit is turned off (that is, in an off state). The image unit 11 shown in black is Indicate the off state.

For example, the terminal 10 may display daily data 39 such as time or date on the unit 11 even when the imaging unit 11 is turned off. At this time, the terminal 11 considers a plurality of app icons 20, unidentified icon badges 21, designated icon badges 23, and the like as daily data 39, and then the image unit 11 together with time or date. ) Can be displayed. Accordingly, the user can use the unidentified icon badge 21 or the designated icon badge 23 without turning on the video unit 11, without executing a user authentication operation, or without running a specific app. And it is possible to easily check the number or contents of the unconfirmed designated content which is a part thereof.

As described above, the off state is a state in which the imaging unit 11 is turned off, and therefore, various hardware elements or software elements of the terminal 10 may not be ready to be driven. Therefore, even if the user provides various user inputs to the app icon 20 displayed on the video unit 11 in the off state, the terminal 10 can prevent the user from driving the app. In contrast, when the user manipulates the app icon 20 in the off state, the terminal 10 may cause the user to drive the app. Even in the latter configuration, when the terminal is in the off state, [1] allows the user to run only a specific app, or [2] may request the user to execute an authentication task to run the app.

As another example, when the content received by the terminal after the user last manipulated a specific app does not require urgent confirmation from the user or urgent response from the user, the terminal displays various icon badges on the locked lock screen. Can be marked on. On the contrary, even when the content received by the terminal after the user last manipulated a specific app requires urgent confirmation from the user or urgent response from the user, the terminal turns on the video unit in the off state and various icons on the locked lock screen Badges can be displayed on the video unit. [Fig. 54] is an example of a configuration and method of displaying various icon badges on a lock screen displayed by an image unit in a locked state. In particular, the image unit 11 shown in gray indicates a state in which the unit 11 is turned on, but user authentication has not been completed, allowing only limited access to the user.

For example, the terminal 10 may display daily data 39 such as time or date on the unit 11 in a locked state. In addition, the terminal 11 may display a plurality of app icons 20, an unconfirmed icon badge 21, and a designated icon badge 23 on a specific part of the image unit 11. Accordingly, the user can easily check the number or contents of the unidentified content received while not running a specific app without executing the user authentication operation and the unidentified designated content that is a part thereof.

As described above, the locked state is a state in which the imaging unit 11 is turned on, and thus at least some of the various hardware elements or software elements of the terminal 10 may be ready to be driven or may be already being driven. However, the locked state refers to a state in which the user has not yet successfully authenticated. Therefore, even if the user provides various user inputs to the app icon 20, the terminal 10 can prevent the user from driving the app. In contrast, when the user manipulates the app icon 20 in a locked state, the terminal 10 may allow the user to run the app. In this configuration, the terminal may [1] allow the user to run only a specific app in the locked state, or [2] to run the app, request the user to execute an authentication operation and succeed.

As another example, if the content received by the terminal after the user last operated a specific app does not require urgent confirmation from the user or urgent response from the user, the terminal displays various icon badges on the home screen in the unlocked state. I can. Or, after the user completes authentication, when the content received by the terminal when running a specific app requires urgent confirmation of the user or urgent response from the user, the terminal displays various icon badges on the home screen in the unlocked state. Can be marked on. However, since the above case is the same as or similar to the case of the above-described lock screen, further description will be omitted.

For reference, it can be seen that the terminal of [Fig. 53] in the off state displays three app icons, while the terminal 10 of [Fig. 54] in the locked state displays nine app icons. Therefore, it can be considered that the terminal of the above example displays a greater number of app icons to the user in the locked state than in the off state, as well as grants more access rights or more options. This is a general case, because the off state is a state in which the user does not currently intend to drive the terminal, but the locked state is a state in which the user passes through to move to the unlocked state driving the terminal.

Of course, the terminal may not display any daily data on the video unit in the off state, may display only daily data such as date and time, or may also display a specific unidentified icon badge. Similarly, when the terminal is locked, the app icon may be displayed, but the icon badge for the app may not be displayed. Although the terminal displays a designated icon badge on the lock screen displayed in the locked state, the user may not be able to view the designated content indicated by the icon badge until user authentication is completed, or even if user authentication is not completed. You can view the content, or you can allow only a portion of the specified content (for example, the first line) to be viewed.

A fourth detailed example of a modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration and method of displaying only a designated icon badge and an unspecified icon badge instead of displaying a designated icon badge and an unidentified icon badge. In this specification, in principle, the unconfirmed content includes unconfirmed unspecified content and unconfirmed specified content. Therefore, the number of unconfirmed contents indicated by the unconfirmed icon badge is the sum of the number of unconfirmed and designated contents and the number of unconfirmed and designated contents.

However, if the user wants to calculate the number of unconfirmed and unspecified content from the total number of unconfirmed content and the number of specified content included among unconfirmed content, subtraction is required. In order to save the user's effort, the terminal may use an unidentified unspecified icon badge instead of an unidentified icon badge. Therefore, the user can easily check the number of non-designated contents and designated contents visually directly without subtraction. [FIG. 55] and [FIG. 56] are examples of various configurations and methods for displaying the number of unspecified content and the number of specified content by displaying an unidentified unspecified icon badge instead of an unidentified icon badge.

The terminal of [Fig. 55] displays a non-designated icon badge 22 and a designated icon badge 23 around or inside the app icon 20 for a specific app. In particular, the non-designated icon badge 22 indicates "223" and the designated icon badge 23 indicates "7". From this, the user can easily and visually confirm that the user has received 7 designated contents and 223 non-designated contents after driving the app.

In addition, as shown in [Fig. 56], the terminal displays an unspecified icon badge 22, a designated icon badge 23, as well as an unidentified icon badge 21, which is a sum of them, around or inside the app icon 20 for a specific app. . At this time, the non-designated icon badge 22 displays "223", the designated icon badge 23 displays "7", and the unconfirmed icon badge 21 displays "230". It can be easily seen that there are a total of 230, of which 7 are designated and 223 are non-designated.

The terminal may display the designated icon badge 23 and the non-designated icon badge 22 in the same arrangement or configuration as the unidentified icon badge and the designated icon badge described in [Figs. 5] to [15]. Therefore, the terminal displays one badge above [1] of another badge, [2] on the side, [3] inside, [4] overlaps each other, or [5] does not overlap each other. They can be marked to be in contact with each other. In addition, the terminal may display the badge in various sizes, shapes, colors, orientations, arrangements, or positions, so that a user can easily distinguish one badge from another badge.

In addition, the terminal may display an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge, or, instead of displaying an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge, an unidentified icon badge and an unspecified icon badge. In addition, unlike [Figs. 5] to [Fig. 15], the terminal displays [1] an unidentified icon badge on a designated icon badge, [2] a non-designated icon badge on a designated icon badge, or [3] an unidentified icon badge. It can be displayed on the badge of an unspecified icon.

As described above, the unconfirmed content always includes both unconfirmed unspecified content and unconfirmed specified content. Therefore, the unconfirmed content is always more than or equal to the specified content. In contrast, the non-designated content may be more, less, or the same than the designated content. In addition, all unconfirmed contents are designated contents, and may not include any non-designated contents. In particular, when there is no unspecified content included in the unidentified content, that is, when the number to be attached to the unspecified icon badge is "0", the terminal may display it according to various configurations or methods described in [Figs. 12] to [23]. I can.

As described above, the various terminals of the present specification can display to the user the specified content included in the unconfirmed content received by a specific app, that is, content that the user needs to check relatively higher than other content by using various icon badges. In particular, it is possible to display the number or contents of such designated content. Therefore, as long as this purpose can be easily achieved, the terminal of the present specification may display the above-described various badges in different specific configurations or methods, and if necessary, the terminal may also have a number of different designated icon badges or a number of characteristics thereof. By mixing, you can create a new designated icon badge and display it on the video unit.

The fifth detailed example of the modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification is the number of unconfirmed content received by the app indicated by the icon badge without displaying a number inside or around the app icon, and included in the unconfirmed content. It relates to a configuration or method capable of displaying the number of designated contents or the number of non-designated contents. To this end, the terminal can manipulate the size, shape, color, transparency, orientation, arrangement, or position of one or more parts of the icon badge.

For example, the terminal may display various unconfirmed icon badges and designated icon badges described in FIGS. 5 to 15, but may not display numbers related to the badges. Instead, the terminal can relatively and visually display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of unconfirmed specified content received by the app related to the badge by manipulating the size, shape, color, transparency, orientation, arrangement, or location of the badge. have.

As another example, the terminal may visually display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of unconfirmed specified content by using text or symbols instead of using numbers. That is, the terminal can display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of specified content by displaying text or symbol on the app icon or by displaying specific text or symbol on the unconfirmed icon badge or the specified icon badge. As an example, the terminal is similar to the example of [Fig. 23], but the absolute value or the relative value of the number may be displayed using a specific text or symbol without using a number. As long as the terminal of the present specification can display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of unconfirmed specified content without using numbers, the above-described various designated icon badges or unconfirmed icon badges may be modified by using the above text or symbols. It can be improved.

As another example, the terminal may visually display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of unconfirmed specified content using figures or images instead of using numbers. That is, the terminal can display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of specified content by displaying a figure or image on an app icon or by displaying a figure or image on an unconfirmed icon badge or a designated icon badge. As long as the terminal of the present specification can display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of unconfirmed specified content without using numbers, the above-described various designated icon badges or unconfirmed icon badges may be modified by using the above figures or images. It can be improved.

The sixth detail example of the modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification is that the app icon itself corresponding to the U/I of a specific app or representing the app can replace the icon badge, that is, the app icon itself is various It is about the composition or method that can be used as an icon badge. To this end, the terminal manipulates characteristics such as size, shape, color, transparency, orientation, arrangement, or location of one or more parts of the app icon without displaying a separate unidentified icon badge or a separate designated icon badge. Or, you can replace the icon badge with a specific part of the icon.

As an example, the terminal may manipulate the shape of a single or multiple portions of the app icon similar to the various unidentified icon badges or designated icon badges described in [FIGS. 5] to [FIG. 15]. For example, the right part of the app icon may be replaced with an unidentified icon badge while the left part may be replaced with a designated icon badge. In addition, the terminal may manipulate the above characteristics, such as the size or shape of the right and left portions of the app icon according to the number or contents of unconfirmed contents, the number or contents of designated contents, and the like. Accordingly, the user can visually check the characteristics such as the size and shape of a specific part of the app icon, thereby confirming the number or contents of unconfirmed content or specified content.

As another example, the terminal may visually display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of unconfirmed specified content by displaying text, symbols, etc. on a specific part of the app icon. That is, the terminal can display the number of unconfirmed content or the number of specified content by displaying text, symbols, etc. on the app icon. In addition, as long as the user can recognize the number or contents of the unconfirmed content or the unconfirmed specified content, the above characteristics of the app icon can be manipulated in various ways and used as various designated icon badges or unconfirmed icon badges.

A seventh detail example of modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method of using a plurality of app icons and simultaneously using various icon badges. For this, the terminal can use multiple app icons for a single app.

For example, the terminal may display a first app icon and a second app icon corresponding to a specific app or U/I of the app together on the image unit. In particular, the terminal may display an unconfirmed icon badge around or inside the first app icon, and display an unidentified designated icon badge around or inside the second app icon. As described above, by displaying each icon badge on a plurality of app icons for a specific app, the user can more easily individually check the number or contents of unconfirmed content, designated content, or non-designated content.

As a first example of this, the terminal may display a first app icon and a second app icon for a specific app on the image unit. In particular, the terminal may use the first app icon as an unconfirmed icon badge by manipulating characteristics such as size, shape, color, transparency, orientation, arrangement, or location of the first app icon. That is, based on the number of unconfirmed content received by the app, the terminal manipulates the characteristic of the first app icon differently and displays it on the image unit. Accordingly, the user can visually recognize the number or contents of the unconfirmed content received by the app. In the same way, the terminal can use the second app icon as a designated icon badge by manipulating the characteristics of the second app icon.

As a second example of this, when a plurality of apps are installed in the terminal, and each of the apps receives content, the terminal displays a first app icon and a second app icon for each app, and the inside of the first app icon Alternatively, an unidentified icon badge indicating the number or content of the unconfirmed content may be displayed around the second app icon, and a designated icon badge indicating the number or content of the specified content may be displayed inside or around the second app icon. In addition, the terminal may display a first app icon and an unidentified icon badge of a plurality of apps on a first portion of the imaging unit, and display a second app icon and designated icon badges of the apps on a second portion of the imaging unit.

Accordingly, the user can easily check the number of designated content received by each app by using a plurality of second app icons and a plurality of designated icon badges displayed together on the second portion of the image unit. In addition, the user can easily check the number or contents of the unconfirmed content received by each app by using a plurality of first app icons and a plurality of unconfirmed icon badges displayed together on the first portion of the image unit.

[Fig. 57] is an example of a configuration or method for separately displaying an unidentified icon badge and a designated (or non-designated) icon badge for a plurality of apps according to the type of the badge, and a modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect This corresponds to the second example of the seventh detailed example. The terminal 10 of FIG. 57 is in a locked state, and displays three first and three second app icons for three apps on the image unit 11, and a total of six app icons. In particular, the terminal 10 displays three first icons for three apps under the image unit 11, and displays three unidentified icon badges for unidentified content received by the apps to the right of each first app icon. Mark at the bottom. In addition, the terminal 10 displays three second icons for the three apps on the top of the video unit 11, and displays three designated icon badges for the (unconfirmed) designated content received by the apps. It is displayed in the upper right of the app icon. Therefore, the user can check the lower portion of the video unit 11 when checking the number of unidentified content received by each app, and check the upper portion of the video unit 11 to confirm the number of specified content received by each app. .

As a third example, when multiple apps are installed in the terminal, and each app receives content, the terminal displays the first app icon and the unconfirmed icon badge for apps that have received unidentified content including the specified content. A second app icon and a designated icon badge can be displayed. However, in the case of an app that has received unconfirmed content that does not include the specified content, the terminal displays only the first app icon and unconfirmed icon badge for the app. In addition, the terminal displays a first app icon of a plurality of apps and an unidentified icon badge for the app together on a first portion of the imaging unit, but a second app icon of the apps and the app on a second portion of a different imaging unit. Designate icon badges for can be displayed. Accordingly, the user can easily check the number of designated content received by each app through a plurality of second app icons collected and displayed at the second portion of the image unit and a plurality of designated icon badges therefor.

[Fig. 58] As an example of a configuration and method for separately displaying an unidentified icon badge, a designated (or undesignated) icon badge, etc. for a plurality of apps according to the type of badge, the seventh detailed example of the ninth exemplary aspect This is an example of the third example. The terminal 10 of [Fig. 57] is in the unlocked state, and the image unit 11 displays 3 first app icons and 2 second app icons for the three apps, a total of 5 app icons, Displays three app icons for three apps that haven't received or can't receive unidentified content.

In particular, the terminal 10 displays three first app icons for each of the three apps on the right side of the image unit 11, and displays three unconfirmed icon badges for unidentified content received by the apps, respectively, as a first app icon. Mark on the lower right of. In addition, the terminal 10 displays two second app icons for two of the three apps on the left side of the video unit 11, and a designated icon badge 2 for the (unconfirmed) designated content received by the apps. Dogs are displayed in the upper left of each second app icon.

In this case, the terminal 10 displays a first icon for a messenger app that has received a total of 183 unconfirmed contents on the right side of the video unit 11 and an unconfirmed icon badge with the number 183 attached thereto. However, if the designated content is not included in the 183 unconfirmed content received by the messenger app, the terminal 10 displays the first app icon for the messenger app on the right side of the video unit 11, but the second app for the app The icon is not displayed, so the terminal 10 does not display the second app icon for the messenger app on the left side of the image unit 11. That is, as in the case of the second example, when the specified content is included in the unidentified content received by a specific app, the terminal 10 displays the first app icon and the second app icon for the app at the same time. As in the case where the specified content is not included in the unverified content received by a specific app, the terminal 10 displays the first app icon for the app, but does not display the second app icon.

Therefore, users who use the terminal or app according to the configuration of the third example above can check the right side of the video unit to check the number of unidentified content received by each app, but to check the number of specified content received by each app, the video Just check the left side of the unit. In particular, since the terminal does not display app icons and icon badges of apps that have received only unidentified content that does not contain specified content, the user can more easily display the app that received the specified content and the number or number of the specified content. You can check the contents.

In the various examples described above, the terminal may cause each of a plurality of app icons to perform the same or similar functions. That is, a specific app displays the first app icon and the second app icon, but when the user provides the same user input to the first and second app icons, each app icon displays the same group window or content window in the image unit 11 Can be marked on.

In contrast, in the various examples described above, the terminal may allow each of a plurality of app icons to perform different functions. For example, although a specific app displays a first app icon and a second app icon, even if the user provides the same user input to the first and second app icons, each app icon displays a different group window or content window in the image unit ( This is the case indicated in 11). For example, when a user applies a user input to a first app icon of a specific app, the app may display a group window or a content window including both designated content and non-designated content. However, when the user applies the same user input to the second app icon of the app, the app [1] displays a group window that selectively displays only the group that has received the specified content, or [2] the group receives One non-designated content may be simplified or omitted, but a content window emphasizing the designated content may be displayed.

An eighth detail example of modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method for a user's response to a designated content and a designated icon badge or a response of a terminal. A user who checks the unconfirmed designated content included in the unconfirmed content received by the app mounted on the terminal may respond to the content. For example, when the app is a schedule management app, the user may send a notification of participation, a notification of absence, a notification of a delay, or a notification of a delay request. Alternatively, when the app is an advertisement display app, the user may send a purchase notice, a reservation cancellation notice, or a delivery notice for a specific product. Or, if the above app is an incident notification app, the user may notify a security agency such as the police, a notification of a request for help, a notification of a medical institution, a notification of an investment execution (stock, bond purchase or purchase, etc.) depending on the case. Can ship. Alternatively, when the app is a management app for various electronic devices or electric devices as described above, the user may send a notification for operation of various devices.

The user can instruct the terminal to respond to the various notifications in the paragraph above. For example, if the user recognizes a fire from the content received from the incident notification app, instead of calling the fire department after the user checks the specified content, the user reads the specified content and then operates a specific button or other input unit, the terminal You can also have this fire department call you.

A ninth detail example of a modification or improvement of the ninth exemplary aspect of the present specification includes various designated content, designated data packets and designated icon badges in the present specification, in addition to apps mounted on portable terminals, desktop computers, control panels of offices or workplaces. It is applied to programs or apps of 59 and 60 are examples of a configuration or method in which a designation signal, a designation content, a designation data packet, and a designation icon badge are applied to a program using a network.

[Fig. 59] is an example of an app icon, an unconfirmed icon badge, and a designated icon badge for an email app displayed on the screen of a desktop computer. The computer may indicate to the user that a total of 230 unconfirmed emails have been received after the user has finished running the app using the unconfirmed icon badge 21 and the number "230". In addition, the computer may inform the user that a total of 23 emails among the unconfirmed emails are designated emails by using the designated icon badge 23.

[Fig. 60] is a different window displayed on the image unit when the user runs the same app on the laptop computer, and the "Inbox" (21)," that is, the receiving window, indicates that a total of 230 unconfirmed emails have been received. The "Labeled Box" (23), ie the designated window shown below, indicates that 7 out of 230 unconfirmed emails are designated emails. That is, the receiving window may be regarded as an unconfirmed icon badge, and the designated window may be regarded as a designated icon badge.To this end, the laptop computer generates a designation signal using various configurations and methods for the terminal, including It generates a designated data packet, and can transmit and receive it through a network.

Each of the embodiments and detailed examples of the ninth exemplary aspect may be interchangeable with the embodiments or detailed examples of different aspects described above and described below. Accordingly, the various embodiments and detailed examples of the ninth aspect are applied to the corresponding characteristics of [1] different embodiments or details of the same aspect, different embodiments or different details of the same aspect, as long as they do not conflict with each other, or , [2] may be included in the corresponding property, [3] replace the corresponding property, [4] be replaced by the corresponding property, or [5] be mixed with the corresponding property.

5. Creation of designated signals and designated contents from a system perspective

The tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to various configurations of software elements for generating various icon badges and methods of executing tasks. To this end, the terminal or the app may calculate the presence or number of unconfirmed content that has been received by a user in a specific app or in a specific group of the app in various ways, but has not yet been confirmed. In addition, the terminal or the app may calculate the number of specified (or non-designated) content included in the unidentified content in a similar or different way.

The calculation of the above sentence can be executed by various software elements of the terminal, various apps mounted on the terminal, programs on external servers, apps mounted on external servers, programs on cloud storage, or apps mounted on cloud storage. However, for convenience of explanation, the above calculation is collectively referred to as "calculation performed by the terminal" or simply "calculation". Therefore, the various calculations described below can be executed by a terminal or an app mounted on the terminal, but can be executed by an external server, a cloud, as well as any device in which an app or computer program capable of executing the calculation is stored or mounted. The terminal can perform some or all of the above calculations in a variety of ways.

For example, when a specific app mounted on a terminal or an unconfirmed content that the user has not yet confirmed is received in a specific group of the app, the terminal displays a "unconfirmed icon badge" indicating that the unconfirmed content exists. In addition, whenever the terminal additionally receives unconfirmed content, the terminal can calculate the (cumulative) number of unconfirmed content, and if necessary, the terminal may display a number indicating the (cumulative) number together with an unconfirmed icon badge. Of course, the terminal may optionally display an unidentified icon badge or the number on the image unit, but for the user's convenience, an unidentified icon badge or the number may be displayed around or inside the app icon of the app.

In addition, the terminal [1] checks the presence or absence of the specified content included in the unconfirmed content based on various specified signals, calculates the number, or [2] includes it in the unconfirmed content in advance using the various information analysis algorithms described above. You can check the specified content and calculate the number. When the terminal checks the unconfirmed designated content included in the unconfirmed content, the terminal may display a "(unconfirmed) designated icon badge" or a "designated icon badge" indicating the existence of the unconfirmed designated content. Whenever the terminal additionally receives unconfirmed content, the terminal may check whether the specified content is included in the unconfirmed content. Whenever the terminal checks the (unconfirmed) designated content, the (cumulative) number can be calculated, and if necessary, the terminal can display a number indicating the number together with an unconfirmed designated icon badge.

The terminal may display an unconfirmed designated icon badge or a number indicating the number of designated contents at an arbitrary position on the video unit. However, for the user's convenience, the terminal may be [1] around or inside the app icon for a specific app displayed on the screen in the off state, lock screen, or unlock screen, or [2] around or inside the group icon in the group window of a specific app , The unconfirmed designation icon badge and the number may be displayed. In addition, when the terminal displays both the number or content of the unidentified content, the number or content of the unidentified content, or the number or content of the specified content, as well as the unidentified icon badge and the designated icon badge, the terminal may use the badges and The above numbers can be displayed.

The first embodiment of the tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a program capable of calculating the presence or number of unidentified content received by a terminal or a specific app, and as an example [FIG. 61] calculates the number of unidentified content. This is an example of a program to be displayed after. The program assigns a constant intent action value, "int", to "badgeCount" representing the (accumulative) number of unconfirmed content, such as when calling cameras, albums, etc. in line 5 above. In this case, "getPackageName()" is a function to get the current package name, and the class name corresponds to the name of the activity class in which a specific app is first executed. If "MainActivity.class" is the first activity class, its name can be used, and a screen definition class is separately set with int, and after a certain period of time, it moves to "MainActivity", so that the launcher (first run) screen is obtained. You can use functions.

A program can create two classes that inherit two services based on FCM, and among them, can implement "sendNotification method" or "onMessageReceived method" of a class that inherits "FirevaseMessagingService". When the program receives push information such as unidentified content or unspecified data packet including the same, the program increases the "BadgeCount variable" (hereinafter abbreviated as "Badge Count") by 1, but the badge count is pushed and the app is opened. It should be initialized to "0" when running. Terminals or apps can store badge counts in a database such as "SharedPreference" or "SQLite". In addition, the terminal or app can call a function that checks the badge count and initialize it to "0" if the count value is not "0". That is, when the user starts the app, the badge count is set to 0, and after the user completes the running of the app, when push information such as unidentified content or unspecified data packet including unidentified content is received, the badge count can be increased. have.

Accordingly, the terminal or the app may display a badge count corresponding to the number of unidentified content received by a specific app or a specific group of the app together with “unconfirmed icon badge”. As an example, when the terminal displays the app icon (or U/I) of the corresponding app on the video unit, the app icon (or U/I) with “unconfirmed icon badge” and “badge count (that is, the number of unconfirmed content)” It can be displayed together with the inside or the surroundings. The terminal or the app may execute the program at a time when push information is received, that is, unconfirmed content is received.

When the terminal displays multiple group icons for multiple groups set by a particular app in the group window, the terminal displays the "Unidentified Icon Badge" and "Badge Count (ie number of unidentified content)" for each group. It can be displayed together inside or around the icon (or U/I). To this end, the program of [Fig. 61] allocates unique connection information and group count to each group defined by the app, and when receiving push information such as unconfirmed content and unspecified data packets including the same, the badge count in the above paragraph is of course The group count in this paragraph can also be modified to increase by one. Accordingly, the terminal or the app may calculate and display the number of unidentified content received by a specific app, the number of unidentified content received by each of a plurality of groups set by the app.

The second embodiment of the tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a program capable of calculating the presence or absence or number of specified content included in unverified content received by a terminal or a specific app, [Fig. 62] This is an example of a program that calculates and displays numbers. The program assigns a constant intent action value, "int", to "labelCount" representing the (cumulative) number of unconfirmed specified content in the 5th line above. Also, "getPackageName()" is a function to get the current package name, while the class name corresponds to the name of the activity class in which a specific app is first executed. If "MainActivity.class" is the first activity class, its name can be used, and the screen definition class is set separately with int, and after a certain period of time, it moves to "MainActivity", so the launcher (first run) screen is displayed. You can use a function to get it.

A program can create two classes that inherit two services based on FCM, and among them, can implement "sendNotification method" or "onMessageReceived method" of a class that inherits "FirevaseMessagingService". When the program receives push information such as the above-described designation signal, designated content, or designated data packet, the program increases the "labelCount variable" (hereinafter abbreviated as "designated count") by one, but the designated count is pushed It should be initialized to "0" when running the app. The terminal or app can also store the specified count in a database such as "SharedPreference" or "SQLite". In addition, by calling a function that checks the specified count, if the count value is more than "0", it can be initialized to "0". That is, when the user drives the app, the designated count is set to 0, and when the user finishes driving the app and receives push information such as designated content, the designated count may be increased.

Accordingly, the terminal or the app may display a specified count corresponding to the number of (unconfirmed) specified content included in the specific app or the unverified content received by the specific group of the app together with the "(unconfirmed) specified icon badge". For example, when the terminal displays the app icon (or U/I) of the corresponding app on the video unit, the “designated icon badge” and “designated count (ie, the number of unconfirmed designated content)” are displayed as the app icon (or U/I). ) Can be displayed together with the inside or surroundings. Or, if the terminal displays multiple group icons for multiple groups set by the app in the group window, "(unconfirmed) designated icon badge" and "specified count (that is, the number of unconfirmed designated content)" for each group Can be displayed together inside or around each group icon (or U/I). The terminal or the app may execute the program at a time when push information is received, that is, unconfirmed content is received.

For reference, the program of [Fig. 62] is similar to the program of [Fig. 61]. However, the program in [Fig. 61] uses a variable called "badge count" to calculate the (accumulated) number of unconfirmed contents, but the program in [Fig. 62] uses a variable called "designated count" to calculate the (accumulated) number of unconfirmed designated contents. ) Calculate the number. Therefore, the terminal or app displays the unconfirmed icon badge and the designated icon badge on the video unit, and uses the program illustrated in [Fig. 61] and [Fig. 62] or a program that performs the same or similar function to display the unconfirmed content. The number and number of designated content can be displayed.

The program of [Fig. 62] is configured independently from the program of [Fig. 61], and thus the terminal or app may execute the program of [Fig. 62] but not the program of [Fig. 61]. Therefore, the terminal or app can calculate the (cumulative) number of unconfirmed specified content using a variable called "specified count", and display the specified icon badge and the above number as a number, but the number of unconfirmed icon badges and unconfirmed content, etc. May not be displayed.

A third embodiment of the tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a program for calculating the number of unidentified specified content included in unverified content received by a specific app from the terminal side and the server side. In particular, [Fig. 63] is an example of a server-side program and a terminal-side program that can calculate and display the number of unconfirmed designated content. The upper part is a program to be installed on the server side, and the lower part is a simplified program of the program installed on the terminal. This is an example.

As an example, as described in the first or second embodiment, the server calculates the number of unidentified content received by a specific app or a specific group established by the app, and Badge_Count the number and related unique connection information, etc. Denoted by In addition, the server calculates the number of designated content included in the unconfirmed content, and displays the number and associated unique connection information as Badge_Prioirty_Count. In addition to the Badge_Count and Badge_Prioirty_Count, the server also includes Device_ID (the "number" and the unique information of the recipient terminal to receive the related information or the recipient's phone number, etc.), APP_ID (the "number" and the associated information, etc.) App-specific information), Service_ID (the "number" and information related to the broadcast service of the recipient terminal to receive the information), Mode (information set in relation to the display method such as display method, icon shape, etc.), Code (receiver terminal) Accessible information (for example, terminal notification area, icon, notification window, lock screen, content display, etc.) can be sent to the recipient's terminal.

The server can run Update_Badge to store or manage the information obtained through Calculate_Badgecount in the server database. At this time, Setting Parameter is a setting value related to delivery, which is a setting for the delivery cycle, whether to retransmit when delivery fails, and whether to notify after delivery. In addition, the server can deliver the notification information to be delivered to the user in the form of Badge_Info to the terminal. At this time, Database{Badge_info} is the data and terminal-specific information containing information to be delivered to the recipient, and PARAMETER is the call-related setting value when sending. This is information about the user notification method. In addition, the server executes Management_Badge(), stores and manages information that confirms success or not when sending to the recipient terminal, and can determine whether to retransmit additionally.

The recipient terminal may receive various information from the server, or may request the server to send various information. For example, the terminal executes Broadcating_RequestBadge, communicates with the server wired or wirelessly through the broadcast function provided by the terminal's operating system, and can request various information described in the two paragraphs above, such as notification display information. In particular, the terminal executes Get_BadgeInfo() to receive the notification display information, and when it receives the notification display information, it can pass it to Display_Badgeinfo() to display it on the app icon, and the app icon of a specific app (or group icon of a specific group). ) Around or inside the unconfirmed icon badge, a designated icon badge, a number indicating the number of unconfirmed content, a number indicating the number of unconfirmed specified content, etc. can be displayed.

In the tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, various programs mounted on a terminal, an app, or a server and calculating the presence or number of the unidentified content and the unidentified specified content may be modified or improved in various orders or methods. The following are detailed examples of the modification or improvement, wherein the modification or improvement is applied to [1] the modification or improvement of the above-described embodiment or detailed example of the tenth exemplary aspect, or [2] the above or below description of the present specification. It can be applied to the modification or improvement of different exemplary aspects, different embodiments or details of different exemplary aspects.

In the case of the first detailed example of modification or improvement of the tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, the server providing a service for a specific app is received by the entire app or by a specific group among a plurality of groups established by the app. Unconfirmed content or (unconfirmed) designated content may be provided in the form of push information, and the number of the content may be provided to an app mounted on the terminal in the form of a push notification. In addition, the server may periodically or in real time update the database of the server through Update_Badge() after executing Calculate_Badgecount() in the example of [Fig. 63]. In addition, the server may classify and deliver the updated content as unconfirmed content or designated content to the terminal through Pushing_Badge(). In addition, the server may manage various contents or information related to data packet transmission with Management_Badge().

In the case of the second detailed example of modification or improvement of the tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, a specific app that is mounted on a user terminal and provides a specific service requests information on the number of contents, as well as unconfirmed contents, specified contents, etc. from the server. I can. For example, when a terminal requests the information or when a user drives the app, the terminal or app may request the information from the server using Broadcating_RequestBadge(). When the server sends the information to the terminal, the terminal may receive the information through Get_BadgeInfo() and then display the information on the image unit through Display_Badgeinfo().

In the case of a third detailed example of a modification or improvement of the tenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, various entities determine whether the data packet received by the terminal or app contains a designated signal or whether the content received by the terminal or app is designated content. And the program can be modified accordingly. For example, the sender may generate a designated signal or designated content by providing a mechanical user input, or the sender's terminal using various information analysis algorithms stored in the sender or stored externally. Alternatively, the server may generate a designated signal or designated content based on a user input provided by a sender, or the server may generate a designated signal or designated content using various information analysis algorithms stored in itself or stored outside. In contrast, the receiver's terminal may extract a designated signal included in a received data packet or generate a designated signal or designated content by using an information analysis algorithm stored in itself or stored externally. Therefore, the various programs illustrated in the tenth aspect can also be modified or improved accordingly.

6. Transformation or improvement

Configurations or methods of various terminals, designated data packets or designated icon badges of the first to tenth example aspects of the present specification may be modified or improved in various configurations or methods. In particular, the exemplary aspects of the description below, various embodiments and detailed examples of the description below may be applied to modify or improve each of the various embodiments or detailed examples of the first to tenth exemplary aspects.

The eleventh exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method of a subject of generating a designated signal, and the exemplary aspect may be applied to each of the first to tenth exemplary aspects. As described above, the designation signal of the present specification may be generated by various subjects. Examples of the subject include [1] a terminal of a user who creates the content, and [2] a recipient who receives the content (for example, a specific app A terminal of the group), or [3] a server (ie, a central server or a local server) that mediates the content between the sender and the receiver. The subjects may be linked to each other or may individually generate designation signals. Likewise, the user's terminal, the receiver's terminal, or server can be linked to each other, or each individually ascertain whether a specific data packet contains a designated signal.

In general, the generation or confirmation of the designation signal may be different depending on the structure of the terminal or the characteristics of the task execution, the structure of a specific app or the characteristics of the task execution, the structure of the server or the characteristics of task execution. Therefore, the generation and confirmation of the designated signal may be designed differently by selection of the terminal manufacturer, server operator, or app developer, as long as the terminal, server, or app can be smoothly operated.

In general, a terminal executes a task of generating a designated signal and then performs a task of generating a designated data packet by including it in a data packet. At this time, the hardware element of the terminal that executes the task is a CPU unit, while the software element that executes it is an operating system, an app, or a computer program designated to perform the task. However, for convenience of explanation, in this specification, all of the above tasks are collectively referred to as being executed by the terminal.

The following embodiments of the present exemplary aspect relate to various configurations or methods in which the various entities described above generate a designation signal and generate a designation data packet. In addition, the embodiments described below may be applied to the first to tenth exemplary aspects of the present specification.

In the case of the first embodiment of the eleventh exemplary aspect of the present specification, a user terminal (ie, the terminal or an app mounted on the terminal) may generate a designation signal. As an example, a user who has created content may generate a designation signal through a method illustrated in various embodiments or detailed examples of the fourth exemplary aspect or the fifth exemplary aspect of the present specification. Alternatively, the user's terminal may generate a designation signal by using various existing information analysis algorithms of the method exemplified in various embodiments or detailed examples of the sixth embodiment of the present specification. In this case, the user terminal may generate a designated data packet by including the designated signal in the data packet and transmit it to the server or directly to the receiver's terminal.

In the case of the second embodiment of the eleventh exemplary aspect of the present specification, the server may generate the designation signal. For example, when the user does not actively generate a designated signal and does not include it in the data packet, the server receives the data packet from the user terminal, and then various information analysis algorithms illustrated in various embodiments or detailed examples of the sixth embodiment of the present specification. After analyzing the contents of the packet by using, generation of a designation signal may be determined. However, when a user actively generates a designation signal and includes it in a data packet, the server does not need to perform analysis using the above algorithm.

In the case of the third embodiment of the eleventh exemplary aspect of the present specification, the server may check whether the designated signal is included in the received data packet. As an example, the server that has received the data packet of the first embodiment described above may analyze the data packet and check whether a designation signal is included. When the designation signal is included in the data packet, the server transmits the data packet to the receiver terminal and may notify that the designation signal is included. Alternatively, the server may store the contents of the packet and transmit only a designated signal to the receiver terminal. At this time, the receiver terminal may access the server to check the designated content, and display it in the form of the designated content on the video unit.

The receiver terminal in the case of the fourth embodiment of the eleventh exemplary aspect of the present specification may generate a designation signal. For example, after receiving a data packet from a user terminal or a server, the receiver terminal analyzes the contents of the packet using various existing information analysis algorithms exemplified in various embodiments or detailed examples of the sixth aspect of the present specification, and then designates it. The signal generation can be determined.

In the fifth embodiment of the eleventh exemplary aspect of the present specification, the receiver terminal may check whether the designated signal is included in the received data packet. As an example, the receiver terminal may receive the data packet and check whether the data packet includes a designation signal generated in the first or second aspect of the present specification. Alternatively, the receiver terminal may check the designated signal generated by the receiver terminal according to the fourth embodiment.

In the case of the sixth embodiment of the eleventh exemplary aspect of the present specification, the user's terminal and the server may share the generation or confirmation of the designated signal. Alternatively, the receiver terminal and the server may share the generation or confirmation of the designated signal. Alternatively, the user terminal and the receiver terminal may share the generation or verification of the designated signal. Alternatively, the user terminal, server and receiver terminal may share the generation or verification of the designated signal.

The twelfth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to a configuration or method of an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge in which characteristics of an app icon are changed, and may be applied to the first to tenth exemplary aspects of the present specification. For example, the terminal may use the modified app icon as an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge by modifying various characteristics of the app icon. Therefore, the terminal further changes the characteristics of the app icon (or U/I) of the app as the number of unconfirmed content or unconfirmed specified content of a specific app increases, so that the changed app icon becomes an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge. Can be used. Examples of such characteristics include the size, shape, location, orientation, background, color, brightness, or transparency of the app icon (or U/I).

Therefore, the terminal can change the length or height of the app icon representing the email app and use it as an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge. Alternatively, the font, color, location, or background of the date included in the app icon representing the schedule management app can be changed to be used as an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge. Alternatively, the size and color of the right (or left) of the app icon representing the messenger app can be changed to be used as an unidentified icon badge or a designated icon badge. Alternatively, the terminal may change the various characteristics of the app icon in real time according to the number of unconfirmed content or the number of unconfirmed specified content, and may use the app icon as an unconfirmed icon badge or a designated icon badge.

The thirteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification is not a unilateral designation of a designated recipient by the sender, a unilateral designation of a designated recipient by a server or recipient terminal based on analysis of the content sent by the sender, but the relationship between a specific sender and a specific recipient. It relates to a variety of configurations and methods for designating a designated recipient according to.

The first embodiment of the thirteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification corresponds to the case where the user is the sender. That is, a user can select one or more recipients as designated recipients in advance. In this case, the user can select [1] a designated recipient among members of a specific app group, or [2] a designated recipient among members of a plurality of groups in a specific app. Alternatively, [3] a designated recipient can be selected from among all persons or organizations whose information has been entered into the user terminal regardless of the type of the app. Once the user selects a designated recipient, whether or not the user generates a designated signal, the user terminal includes all content sent to the designated recipient in a designated data packet and sends it to the designated recipient. In this case, the user terminal may send the data packet to the designated recipient as a designated data packet or to another recipient as a non-designated data packet. The terminal of the receiver receiving this may display the content included in the data packet as designated content or non-designated content on the video unit.

To this end, the user may designate his/her boss, family member, or other important person, organization, etc. as designated recipients in advance. When a user wants to operate various electronic devices or electric devices described above, the user may designate a specific device among the devices described above as a designated recipient. Accordingly, the user can have the specified recipient check the content sent by the user, whether or not the content sent by the user includes the content on the specified recipient.

The second embodiment of the thirteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification corresponds to the case where the user is the recipient. That is, a user can select one or more callers as preset callers. In this case, the user can select [1] a designated caller from among members of a specific app group, or [2] a designated caller from among members of a number of groups of a specific app. Alternatively, [3] a designated sender can be selected from among all persons or organizations whose information has been entered into the user terminal regardless of the type of the app. When the user selects the designated sender, the user terminal may display content included in the designated data packet received from the designated sender as well as contents included in the non-designated data packet on the video unit as designated content.

To this end, the user may designate his/her boss, family member, or other important person, organization, etc. as a designated sender in advance. If the user wants to know the states of various electronic devices or electric devices described above, or wants to manipulate the devices, the user may designate a specific device among the aforementioned devices as a designated sender. Accordingly, the user can easily check the content that the designated sender sends only to himself and the content that is also sent to other recipients.

A third embodiment of the thirteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification is when the server selects a designated recipient. That is, the server may receive a list of designated recipients from the sender. Thereafter, the server receiving the data packet sent by the sender may send the designated data packet to the designated recipient, whether or not the designated signal is included in the packet, but may send the non-designated data packet to the non-designated recipient.

Alternatively, the server may receive a list of designated senders from the receiver. Thereafter, the server receiving the data packet sent by the sender, if the sender is a designated sender, sends a designated data packet to the designated recipient, whether or not a designated signal is included in the packet, while sending a non-designated data packet to a non-designated recipient. Can ship.

Alternatively, the server can pre-select the designated recipient. That is, the server analyzes the content included in the data packet sent by the sender using various information analysis algorithms, whether or not a designation signal is included in the data packet, and may select a designated recipient in advance based on the analysis. In particular, the server may select a designated recipient using the name or name of the user's boss, family, or other important person, organization, etc., their ID, their e-mail address, etc. using the above algorithm.

The fourteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification is a unilateral designation of a designated recipient by the sender, a designated recipient based on the settings of both parties, rather than a unilateral designation of a designated recipient by a server or a recipient terminal based on analysis of the content sent by the sender. It relates to various configurations and methods of specifying. Therefore, in the fourteenth aspect of this specification, the content sent by the sender or the content received by the receiver can be designated as the designated content only when two or more of the three subjects such as the sender, the server, and the receiver have agreed in advance. .

However, the sender includes not only the sender's terminal but also vehicles, drones, robots, various electric or electronic devices, various IoT networks, and various devices belonging to the network. Members, that is, customers or employees belonging to a specific group, can also be callers. Similarly, the recipient includes not only the terminal of the recipient, but also vehicles, drones, robots, various electric or electronic devices, various IoT networks, and various devices belonging to the network, and the recipient includes the user or other members other than the user. In other words, customers, employees, etc. belonging to a specific group can also be recipients.

In the case of the first embodiment of the fourteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, the terminal or server may designate the content as designated content only by agreement between the sender and the receiver. Therefore, even if the sender designates the content to be sent as designated content, if there is no prior agreement with the receiver, the receiver receives the content as non-designated content. In addition, even if the receiver desires to receive specific content sent by the sender as designated content, the content cannot be received as designated content unless the sender designates it as designated content and sends it. In addition, even if the terminal or server analyzes the content sent by the sender in advance and then tries to designate it as the designated content, if there is no prior agreement with the recipient terminal or the receiver, the recipient terminal may not regard the content as the designated content. .

The sender and receiver can make various arrangements. For example, the sender and the receiver may agree to receive all the content that the sender sends to the receiver as designated content. Alternatively, the sender and the receiver may agree to receive as specified content as long as the content sent by the sender contains specific content, words, or phrases.

When the sender designates and sends the content sent by the sender as designated content, if a prior agreement between the sender and the receiver requires both consent, the receiver receives the content as non-designated content unless the receiver agrees. However, if prior agreement between the sender and the receiver gives priority to the sender's opinion, the receiver receives the non-designated content sent by the sender as non-designated content, regardless of his or her opinion, but the designated content sent by the sender is received as the designated content. It is done. Contrary to this, if the prior agreement gives priority to the receiver's opinion, the receiver may receive non-designated content sent by the sender as designated content or receive designated content sent by the sender as non-designated content according to the receiver's opinion. . At this time, the recipient adds a specific sender to the specified sender list and receives all the content sent by the sender as specified content, or sent by the sender only when the content sent by the sender contains specific content, words, phrases, etc. It may be agreed to receive one non-designated content or designated content as designated content.

In the case of the second embodiment of the fourteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, the terminal or server may designate the content as designated content by agreement between the sender and the server. Therefore, even if the sender designates the content to be sent as designated content, if there is no prior agreement with the receiving server, the server sends the content as non-designated content to the receiver. In addition, even if the receiver tries to receive the specific content sent by the sender as the specified content, the content cannot be received as the specified content unless the server designates it as the specified content and sends it. In addition, unless there is a prior agreement with the sender, the terminal or the server cannot designate the content as designated content after analyzing the content sent by the sender in advance.

The sender can also make various consultations with the server. As an example, the sender may agree to receive all the content that the server sends to the server as designated content. Alternatively, the sender and the server may agree to receive as specified content only for content including specific content, words, or phrases sent by the sender.

In the case of the third embodiment of the fourteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, the terminal or server may designate the content as designated content by agreement between the sender and the server. Therefore, even if the sender designates the content to be sent as designated content, if there is no prior agreement with the server that delivers the content to the receiver, the server sends the content to the receiver as non-designated content. In addition, even if the receiver wants to receive specific content sent by the sender as specified content, the content cannot be received as specified content unless the server designates it as specified content and sends it. In addition, unless there is a prior agreement with the sender, the terminal or the server cannot analyze the content sent by the sender in advance and designate it as the designated content.

The receiver can make various arrangements with the server. For example, the server may agree to receive all content received by the receiver as designated content. Alternatively, the receiver and the server may agree so that only content including specific content, words, phrases, etc. received by the receiver may be received as designated content.

The fifteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to the configuration and method for additional manipulation or characteristics of various icon badges. For example, when a user provides a specific user input to an app icon, a designated icon badge, or a non-designated icon badge displayed on the video unit, the terminal may execute a specific additional operation or provide a specific additional function to the user.

In the case of the first embodiment of the fifteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, when a user provides a specific user input to an app icon, the terminal may display unconfirmed content on the image unit. That is, when a user taps, touches, or otherwise manipulates the app icon of a specific app, the terminal provides a variety of unconfirmed content received by the app (i.e., all unidentified content received by a plurality of groups established by the app). It can be displayed in an arrangement or method. In this case, the terminal may display a lock screen, a unlock screen, a group window, or a content window on the image unit and display unconfirmed content.

As an example of the configuration of the above sentence, the terminal [1] displays all unconfirmed contents received by the app on the lock screen, unlock screen, group window, or contents window, or [2] instead of displaying all unconfirmed contents, the reception time, Specific unconfirmed content selected based on the content content, sender or group may be displayed, or [3] not all but part of each or specific unconfirmed content (for example, the first sentence, summary or keyword of the unconfirmed content) may be displayed. . Alternatively, instead of displaying all or part of the unconfirmed content, the terminal may display the name, nickname, ID, or picture of the sender of the content. In addition, if the amount of the unidentified content is large and cannot be displayed all at once on the image unit, the terminal may allow the user to check the unidentified content by scrolling the lock screen, the unlock screen, the group window, or the content window.

Thereafter, if the user provides the same or different user input as the user input in the above paragraph, the terminal [1] stops displaying the unconfirmed content exemplified in the above paragraph and displays the original screen again, or [2] All of the specific unconfirmed content may be displayed, or [3] an input window may be opened so that the user can respond to the specific unconfirmed content.

In the case of the second embodiment of the fifteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, when the user provides a specific user input on the designated icon badge, the terminal may display the designated content on the video unit. For example, when a user taps, touches, or otherwise manipulates a designated icon badge (or a number indicating the number or contents of the designated content) displayed around or inside the app icon of a specific app, the terminal receives the designation received by the app. Content can be displayed. The terminal may display whether the designated content is designated content designated by the sender or designated content previously checked by the user's terminal. In this case, the arrangement and method of displaying the designated content by the terminal are similar or identical to the arrangement or method of displaying the unconfirmed content described in the two paragraphs above, so further description will be omitted.

In the case of the third embodiment of the fifteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, if the user provides a specific user input on the non-designated icon badge, the terminal may display the non-designated content on the video unit. For example, when a user taps, touches, or otherwise operates a non-designated icon badge (or a number indicating the number or contents of non-designated content) displayed around or inside the app icon of a specific app, the terminal receives the app. One unspecified content can be displayed. In this case, the terminal may display whether the non-designated content is non-designated content not designated by the sender or the non-designated content previously confirmed by the user's terminal. In this case, the arrangement and method of displaying the non-designated content by the terminal are similar or the same as the arrangement or method of displaying the designated content described in the paragraph above, and thus further description will be omitted.

In the case of the fourth embodiment of the fifteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, the terminal may execute the additional functions of the two paragraphs above for a specific group among a plurality of groups established by the app, instead of executing the additional functions of the above two paragraphs for a specific app. have. Therefore, when a user selects a specific group from among the plurality of groups established by the app and then presses, touches, or otherwise manipulates the designated icon badge, the terminal will display unidentified content, designated content, or unspecified content received by the group of the app. Content can be displayed in various arrangements or methods described in the first to third embodiments of the fifteenth aspect.

A sixteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to additional configurations and additional arrangements of various icon badges.

The terminal creates an unidentified icon badge or a designated (or undesignated) icon badge for each installed app, as well as an unidentified icon badge or a designated (or undesignated) icon badge for each of a plurality of groups established by the app. can do. That is, as described in various exemplary aspects of the present specification, the terminal may display various (unconfirmed, designated, or unspecified) icon badges or numbers related thereto around or inside various app icons. Numbers can also be displayed around or inside group icons of various groups displayed in a specific group window.

In other words, various badges and numbers described in connection with the app icon for a specific app in this specification can be used for each of a plurality of group icons displayed in the group window of the app. Therefore, in the case of an SNS app, the terminal may display the number or contents of various contents received by the app by displaying the app icon, an unconfirmed icon badge, a designated (or undesignated) icon badge, or a number related thereto. Similarly, the terminal displays a group icon of a specific group, an unconfirmed icon badge, a designated (or undesignated) icon badge, or a number related to various contents received by the group in the group window displaying a plurality of groups established by the SNS app. It is also possible to indicate the number or contents of.

In the case of the second embodiment of the sixteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification, the terminal may generate a plurality of designated icon badges based on characteristics of a process in which the designated content is generated. For example, the terminal receiving the designated content directly designated by the sender regards the designated content as the first type designated content, and displays a first type designation icon badge and a first type number indicating the number of the first type designation content. It can be displayed on the image unit. However, if the designated content is the content designated by the user's terminal by preliminary analysis, the terminal regards the designated content as the second type designated content, and a second type designation icon badge for this, indicating the number of second type designation contents. The second number can be displayed on the image unit.

When the terminal preliminarily analyzes the content received from another member or the content that the user intends to send, there are cases other than the case where the content is clearly designated content or is not surely designated content. As an example, as a result of analysis of various information analysis algorithms, the probability or reliability of the content being a designated content is 76%, not 0% or 100%. In this case, the terminal may display the designated content differently according to various reliability or probability, and may create and use different designated icon badges for the disturbing content.

The seventeenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to additional configurations and additional arrangements of various icon badges. For example, when a user provides a user input to an unconfirmed icon badge or a number attached to the badge, the terminal or app may display only unconfirmed content. Alternatively, if the user provides a specific or single user input to the app icon, the terminal or app may display only unidentified content. Alternatively, when a user provides a user input to a designated icon badge or a number attached to the badge, the terminal or app may display only unconfirmed designated content. Alternatively, if the user provides different or multiple user inputs to the app icon, the terminal or app may display only the specified content.

The eighteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to the additional configuration and further arrangement of various icon badges. For example, when a single content includes a plurality of pieces of information having different types such as text, image files, or voice files, the terminal, server, app, etc. may calculate this as a single content or calculate it as a plurality of contents. Accordingly, the terminal or the app can calculate the number or number of various contents in a different method than the above-described method.

Instead of calculating and displaying the number of unconfirmed content and the number of unconfirmed specified (or unspecified) content, the terminal, app, or server specifies the number of data packets containing unconfirmed content and the number of unconfirmed specified (or unspecified) content. You can calculate and display the number of (or unspecified) data packets. In addition, when the content includes a plurality of different types of information such as text, image files, or voice files, the terminal, app, or server may regard it as a single data packet or a plurality of data packets. Accordingly, the terminal or the app may calculate the number or number of various data packets described above in a different manner from the above method.

The nineteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to various icon badges or various display methods of numbers.

The terminal or app of the first embodiment of the nineteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification may display the icon badge or the number (or number) attached to the badge in various ways from a temporal point of view. For example, a terminal or app may simultaneously temporally synchronize a single or multiple badges or numbers (or numbers) (i.e., display multiple badges in the terminal's CPU clock cycle, or display multiple numbers (or numbers) on top of each other. Can be displayed, that is, there are clock cycles that overlap in time). On the other hand, the terminal or app is designed to sequentially sequence one or more badges or numbers (or numbers) in time (in a CPU clock cycle, so that the display tasks of multiple badges or the display tasks of multiple numbers (or numbers) do not overlap each other, i.e., the above tasks. (So that there is a temporal gap between them). However, if the temporal gap is short, the user may feel it simultaneously or sequentially. Therefore, unless there is a conflicting explanation, when a terminal or app displays the badge or number (or number), it is displayed sequentially when viewed from a clock cycle, but simultaneously (i.e., the temporal gap is 1/16) from a user's point of view. If it is shorter than seconds), this is regarded as a simultaneous indication. In addition, the terminal or app may spatially display the badge or number (or number) inside or around the app icon, or display the badge or number (or number) so as not to overlap or overlap the edge of the app icon.

The terminal or app of the second embodiment of the nineteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification may display the icon badge or the number attached to the badge in various ways from a spatial perspective. For example, the terminal or the app may display a single or multiple badges or numbers on the image unit with the app icon around or inside the app icon. The terminal or app may display the badge or number together with the app icon so as to overlap the edge of the app icon. In this case, as described above, the terminal or the app may [1] display the badge or the number temporally simultaneously or sequentially with the app icon, [2] display the badge simultaneously or sequentially temporally with the number, as described above, or [ 3] A number of badges may be displayed simultaneously or sequentially with each other in time, or [4] a plurality of numbers may be displayed simultaneously or sequentially in time.

The twentieth exemplary aspect of the present specification relates to the configuration of or a method of using various “app systems” that can provide or utilize various designated signals, designated contents, or designated icon badges as described above. To this end, in the present specification, "app system" refers to not only the above-described "app", but also hardware elements and software elements operated or operated by an app provider for smooth operation of the "app". Accordingly, various servers that the app provider can directly or indirectly operate or manipulate, and various hardware elements or software elements related thereto may be regarded as belonging to the “app system”.

In addition, when the "app system" can directly or indirectly operate or manipulate an app mounted on a user's terminal, the app may also be regarded as a part of the "app system". In addition, when the “app system” of the app provider can directly or indirectly operate or operate a part of the wired/wireless network in charge of communication with the user, the part of the network may also be regarded as a part of the app system.

The first embodiment of the twentieth exemplary aspect of the present specification is a case in which a user can directly operate or manipulate a specific app from among various apps mounted on the user's terminal using the terminal. Accordingly, a user can use various designation signals, designation content, designation icon badges, and the like by manipulating the app in various ways described in various exemplary aspects, embodiments, or detailed examples of the present specification. As an example, a user may directly execute various tasks exemplified as being executed by a specific app in various embodiments or detailed examples of the present specification using the app or terminal. Likewise, the user can directly execute various tasks illustrated as being executed by the server in various embodiments or detailed examples of the present specification using the app or terminal. Therefore, in this case, the "app system" can be regarded as in charge of a function that assists the operation of the app installed in the user's terminal.

As an example, it is exemplified that some of the programs illustrated in [Fig. 63] are mounted on the server side, while the rest are mounted on the user's terminal. If the above configuration or method is applied to the first embodiment of the twenty-th exemplary aspect, the user's terminal may include the entire program. Accordingly, the program may calculate the number of unconfirmed content as well as the number of unconfirmed specified content, and display it on the image unit whenever the content or data packet sent by the sender is received directly or through the server.

As another example, it is exemplified that the server of the third embodiment of the thirteenth exemplary aspect of the present specification is provided with a designated recipient list from a sender or a recipient, or may select a designated recipient in advance. When the above configuration or method is applied to the first embodiment of the twentieth exemplary aspect, the user terminal may receive a designated recipient list from the sender, or may store and use a designated recipient list in the storage unit of the terminal. Alternatively, the terminal can select a designated recipient in advance using its operating system or app.

If the "app system" as well as the user can operate or manipulate the app mounted on the user's terminal, the "app system" is also described in various ways described in various exemplary aspects, embodiments, or detailed examples of the present specification. By operating the app, various designation signals, designation content, designation icon badges, and the like can be used.

A second embodiment of the twentieth exemplary aspect of the present specification is a case where an app provider directly operates or manipulates the manipulation of the app using the “app system”. At this time, the user can use the app by providing various user inputs to the app icon, which is the user interface of the app installed on his terminal, and change the settings within the range permitted by the "app system", but more than that. You cannot operate or operate the above app. Accordingly, the app provider may directly execute various tasks illustrated as being executed by a user, a terminal, or a server in various embodiments or detailed examples of the present specification.

As an example, the terminal of the first embodiment of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification is illustrated that it is possible to display an unidentified icon badge and a designated icon badge at a specific position of the image unit at the same time as in [Figs. 5] to [Fig. 7]. I did. When the above configuration or method is applied to the second embodiment of this twentieth exemplary aspect, the "app system" is a command to display an app icon and a designated icon badge on a user terminal or an app mounted on the terminal, as well as an app You can send detailed commands for the location and size of icons and designated icon badges.

As another example, the terminal of the first embodiment of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification is exemplified that it is possible to select one or more designated recipients in advance by analyzing the sender content received directly from the sender or via the server using various information analysis algorithms. I did. When the above configuration or method is applied to the second embodiment of this twentieth exemplary aspect, before sending the content received from the sender to the user, the "app system" checks whether the specified request information is included in the content. Can be analyzed in advance. If the server checks the designation request information in the content, the server may generate a designation signal that designates the content as designated content, and transmits the designated content and the designation signal to the user terminal together. Alternatively, the server may include the designated content and the designated signal in a designated data packet, and then send the designated data packet to the user's terminal.

As another example, when the terminal of the third embodiment of the seventh exemplary aspect of the present specification displays unspecified content and unidentified content including the specified content. It is exemplified that the unconfirmed designated content is displayed in its original form or highlighted, but the unconfirmed unspecified content can be omitted. When the above configuration or method is applied to the second embodiment of this twentieth exemplary aspect, the terminal receiving the user's input sends it to the server, and the server is a command for simplifying or omitting non-designated content based on the user input. Is generated, and a command to display the specified content as it is or by highlighting it is generated, and then sent to the user terminal. Accordingly, the terminal displays the designated content in the content window, and the non-designated content is simplified or omitted.

A third embodiment of the twentieth exemplary aspect of the present specification is a case where an app provider distributes and distributes a plurality of hardware elements of the “app system” to a plurality of different places. Therefore, this case is similar to the second embodiment of the twentieth exemplary aspect above, but corresponds to the case where the "app system" uses a plurality of servers located in different places.

As an example, when the first embodiment of the first exemplary aspect of the present specification is applied to the third embodiment of the twenty-first exemplary aspect, the "app system" uses the first server in the first place to use the user's terminal. Alternatively, a command to display a designated icon badge on the video unit is transmitted to the app installed on the terminal, but after calculating the number of designated content using the second server in the second place, the number is displayed on the user's terminal or the app. It is possible to deliver a command to display inside or around the designated icon badge.

As another example, when the first embodiment of the sixth exemplary aspect of the present specification is applied to the third embodiment of the twenty-first exemplary aspect, the "app system" is used to provide various information analysis algorithms to the third server in the third place. Is stored, and the analysis algorithm is driven using the fourth server in the fourth place, and various contents may be analyzed in advance. In addition, the "app system" may connect the third server and the fourth server using the fifth server in the fifth place, and then transmit the analysis result of the fourth server to the user's terminal.

In the third embodiment of this twentieth exemplary aspect, an app provider may operate or manipulate the “app system” in various ways. As an example, an app provider may allow a specific server of the “app system” to operate or manipulate other servers, other hardware elements or software elements of the entire “app system”. Or "app system" may allow two or more servers to operate or manipulate the remaining servers, other hardware elements or software elements. That is, in the case of a "app system" consisting of a plurality of servers, the operator of the system can easily determine which server is responsible for the operation or operation of the entire "app system".
