Abstract

Disclosed are a method and a device for displaying a message, and an electronic device. The method is applied to an electronic device. The method includes: obtaining an off-line message conforming to a preset rule from the message received by the electronic device; finding a message prompting strategy corresponding to the off-line message, and performing a message prompting according to the message prompting strategy; and displaying the off-line message in a same display interface according to a preset message display strategy when receiving a message display instruction of a user.

First claim

1 . A method for displaying a message, applied in an electronic device, comprising:
obtaining an off-line message conforming to a preset rule from the message received by the electronic device; finding a message prompting strategy corresponding to the off-line message, and performing a message prompting according to the message prompting strategy; and displaying the off-line message in a same display interface according to a preset message display strategy when receiving a message display instruction of a user.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , before obtaining the off-line message conforming to the preset rule from the message received by the electronic device, further comprising:
setting the message prompting strategy in a message prompting control, and enabling a message prompting function in the message prompting control.

3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein setting the message prompting strategy in the message prompting control comprises:
enabling the message prompting control, opening a recent page of the message prompting control, and setting the message prompting strategy in the recent page.

4 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the message prompting strategy comprises:
a name of a software for performing the message prompting, a time period for performing the message prompting and a position for performing the message prompting; wherein, the position for performing the message prompting is located at a position where a corresponding instant messaging software icon is in a client display interface, or at a position where a preset prompting icon is, wherein the preset prompting icon is at a warped-shape position in a corner of the client display interface.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the message display strategy comprises a message page setting strategy and a message arranging strategy, wherein,
the message page setting strategy comprises a message page setting strategy for displaying the message in a way that the display interface is in the warped-shape and a message page setting strategy for displaying the message in a full display interface; the message arranging strategy is configured as: setting an animation effect between displayed messages; and, in the time period for performing the message prompting, when received messages are from a single instant messaging software, and when a total number of the received messages is less than a first preset threshold number, displaying the received messages in chronological order, otherwise, displaying the first preset threshold number of messages in chronological order, and displaying information of the total number of the received messages below a last displayed message; when the received messages are from a plurality of instant messaging softwares, setting a one-to-one mapping between an instant messaging software and a message entry, wherein the message entry comprises an icon of the instant messaging software and a number of messages, when a total number of message entries exceeds a second preset threshold number, displaying the second preset threshold number of message entries according to the preset message display strategy, and displaying information of the total number of the message entries below a last displayed message entry.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving information that the user clicks the off-line message, and enabling an instant messaging software corresponding to the off-line message to reply the off-line message.

7 . The method according to claim 6 , after receiving information that the user clicks the off-line message, and before enabling the instant messaging software corresponding to the off-line message to reply the off-line message, further comprising:
determining whether there is a file to be downloaded corresponding to the off-line message clicked by the user, if no, enabling the instant messaging software corresponding to the off-line message to reply the off-line message; if yes, obtaining a client network type when the file to be downloaded is greater than a preset data threshold, and prompting the user to determine whether to download the file to be downloaded through a charged network when the client network type is the charged network.

8 . A device for displaying a message, wherein the device comprises a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions stored thereon, and an instruction execution system which is configured by the computer-executable instructions to implement at least one of:
a message prompting module, configured to obtain an off-line message conforming to a preset rule from the message received by the electronic device, find a message prompting strategy corresponding to the off-line message, and perform a message prompting according to the message prompting strategy; and a message displaying module, configured to display the off-line message in a same display interface according to a preset message display strategy when receiving a message display instruction from a user.

9 . The device according to claim 8 , wherein the instruction execution system is further configured by the computer-executable instructions to implement:
a message prompting strategy setting module, configured to set the message prompting strategy in a message prompting control, and enable a message prompting function in the message prompting control.

10 . The device according to claim 9 , wherein setting the message prompting strategy in the message prompting control comprises:
enabling the message prompting control, opening a recent page of the message prompting control, and setting the message prompting strategy in the recent page.

11 . The device according to claim 8 , wherein the message prompting strategy comprises:
a name of a software for performing the message prompting, a time period for performing the message prompting and a position for performing the message prompting; wherein, the position for performing the message prompting is located at a position where a corresponding instant messaging software icon is in a client display interface, or at a position where a preset prompting icon is, wherein the preset prompting icon is at a warped-shape position in a corner of the client display interface.

12 . The device according to claim 8 , wherein the message display strategy comprises a message page setting strategy and a message arranging strategy, wherein,
the message page setting strategy comprises a message page setting strategy for displaying the message in a way that the display interface is in the warped-shape and a message page setting strategy for displaying the message in a full display interface; the message arranging strategy is configured as: setting an animation effect between displayed messages; and in the time period for performing the message prompting, when received messages are from a single instant messaging software, and when a total number of the received messages is less than a first preset threshold number, displaying the received messages in chronological order, otherwise, displaying the first preset threshold number of messages in chronological order, and displaying information of the total number of the received messages below a last displayed message; when the received messages are from a plurality of instant messaging softwares, setting a one-to-one mapping between an instant messaging software and a message entry, wherein the message entry comprises an icon of the instant messaging software and a number of messages, when a total number of message entries exceeds a second preset threshold number, displaying the second preset
