Abstract

A method, a system, and a non-transitory computer-readable record medium are provided to display content of interest. A content display method may include analyzing a user interest based on a user activity on an application; generating a customized content in response to receiving from a server, information that matches the user interest; and displaying the customized content through an interface related to a specific event when the specific event occurs on the application.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A content display method implemented by a computer system including at least one processor configured to execute computer-readable instructions included in a memory, the content display method comprising:
analyzing a user interest based on a user activity on a messenger application;
generating a customized content in response to receiving from a server, information that matches the user interest;
re-formatting a launch screen of the messenger application based on the customized content such that the re-formatted launch screen is customized to display the customized content thereon; and
when the messenger application is launched, displaying the customized content on the reformatted launch screen before a chatroom of the messenger application including at least one message is displayed, in response that a predetermined type of activity has been detected or the predetermined type of activity has occurred at a predetermined rate or higher on the messenger application,
wherein the launch screen includes default content displayed thereon, and
the re-formatting comprises
re-formatting the launch screen by changing either one or both of a size and a location of the default content to display the customized content including a suggestion for at least one official account of the messenger application together with the changed default content on the launch screen.

2. The content display method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
displaying the customized content through the chatroom of the messenger application when a user enters the chatroom with no unread messages.

3. The content display method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
displaying the customized content through the chatroom of the messenger application when a user stays for a predetermined period of time or longer without sending a message in the chatroom.

4. The content display method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
in response to receiving a message including a keyword related to the user interest through the chatroom of the messenger application, displaying an interface for receiving a selection input in association with the message; and
displaying the customized content through the chatroom when a user selects the interface.

5. The content display method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
displaying an interface for receiving a selection input in association with a content, in response to the content shared through the chatroom of the messenger application matching the user interest; and
displaying the customized content through the chatroom when a user selects the interface.

6. The content display method of claim 1 , wherein the generating the customized content comprises:
receiving, from the server, data that includes content provider information or content information corresponding to the user interest; and
generating the customized content in a chatroom message format of the messenger application using the data.

7. The content display method of claim 1 , wherein the launch screen includes default content displayed thereon, and
the re-formatting comprises
re-formatting the launch screen to display the customized content together with the default content thereon by changing either one or both of a size and a location of the displayed default content.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable record medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a content display method comprising:
analyzing a user interest based on a user activity on a messenger application;
generating a customized content in response to receiving from a server, information that matches the user interest;
re-formatting a launch screen of the messenger application based on the customized content such that the re-formatted launch screen is customized to display the customized content thereon; and
when the messenger application is launched, displaying the customized content on the re-formatted launch screen before a chatroom of the messenger application including at least one message is displayed, in response that a predetermined type of activity has been detected or the predetermined type of activity has occurred at a predetermined rate or higher on the messenger application,
wherein the launch screen includes default content displayed thereon, and
the re-formatting comprises
re-formatting the launch screen by changing either one or both of a size and a location of the default content to display the customized content including a suggestion for at least one official account of the messenger application together with the changed default content on the launch screen.

9. A computer system comprising:
a memory storing one or more computer-readable instructions; and
at least one processor configured to execute the one or more computer-readable instructions to:
analyze a user interest based on a user activity on a messenger application;
generate a customized content in response to receiving from a server, information that matches the user interest;
re-format a launch screen of the messenger application based on the customized content such that the re-formatted launch screen is customized to display the customized content thereon; and
when the messenger application is launched, display the customized content on the re-formatted launch screen before a chatroom of the messenger application including at least one message is displayed, in response that a predetermined type of activity has been detected or the predetermined type of activity has occurred at a predetermined rate or higher on the messenger application,
wherein the launch screen includes default content displayed thereon, and
the at least one processor is further configured to
re-format the launch screen by changing either one or both of a size and a location of the default content to display the customized content including a suggestion for at least one official account of the messenger application together with the changed default content on the launch screen.

10. The computer system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to display the customized content on the re-formatted launch screen when the messenger application is launched in response that a predetermined type of activity has been detected or the predetermined type of activity has occurred at a predetermined rate or higher on the messenger application.

11. The computer system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to display the customized content through the chatroom of the messenger application when a user enters the chatroom with no unread messages.

12. The computer system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to display the customized content through the chatroom of the messenger application when a user stays for a predetermined period of time or longer without sending a message in the chatroom.

13. The computer system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to
in response to receiving a message including a keyword related to the user interest through the chatroom of the messenger application, display an interface for receiving a selection input in association with the message, and
display the customized content through the chatroom when a user selects the interface.

14. The computer system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to
display an interface for receiving a selection input in association with a content, in response to the content shared through the chatroom of the m
