Description

A method and device for customizing reminder information

technical field

The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method and system for customizing reminding information through a network. the

Background technique

Many products have timing functions, such as alarm clocks, mobile phones, computers, etc. The original timing reminder was based on mechanical principles. With the development of technology, the timing reminder function has been greatly enriched. Through software settings and functions provided by electronic products, users can set multiple reminder times and choose different alarm reminders. Most of the current regular reminders are local reminders, such as some reminder software, which realize the circular reminders of the year, month, week, day, etc., special reminders such as the first month of the year, the first week of a certain month, and the like. Remote reminders, such as the hotel's "morning call" service, are manually implemented, and group SMS appointment reminders, etc. But the technology of customizing reminder information between users has not yet appeared. There is such a requirement: a user wants to customize reminder information for other users: for example, customize reminders for other users to have a meeting at 9 o'clock the next day. the

Detailed ways

The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. In the following embodiments, user (terminal) A customizes reminder information for other users (including B) as an example for illustration. the

There are mainly two methods for realizing the present invention. One is that the customized reminder information of the user terminal is forwarded by the server to the target terminal, and the target terminal executes the regular reminder function. The other is that the server stores the customized reminder information after receiving it and executes the timing reminder function, and sends the reminder information to the target terminal at the scheduled time. These two methods are described in detail below. the

Referring to FIG. 1 , terminal A customizes reminder information for terminal B through a server. The specific process is as follows:

1. The user of terminal A customizes a reminder message for terminal B through a certain interface method, and sends the customized reminder message to the server through a certain protocol, such as the HTTP protocol. This message includes the scheduled reminder time, which may be A one-time time, or a periodic time; the information also includes the identification of terminal B, such as the mobile phone number or the ID of the set-top box; the information also includes customized reminder content, and there are many ways to remind the content, such as Text, graphics, multimedia or online online playback, etc. For the network online playing mode, the reminder information includes a link address, and the terminal can link and play the online information through the link address. the

The interface for customizing reminder information can be generated by the terminal or sent by the server. the

2. After receiving the customized reminder information sent by terminal A, the server forwards the information to terminal B directly according to the terminal B's identification contained in the information. the

3. Terminal B receives the forwarded custom reminder information, stores it, and plays the reminder content at the scheduled time according to the reminder time contained in the information. Playing the reminder content needs to start the corresponding player according to different content, such as reminder When the content is multimedia, a corresponding multimedia player is required. the

In the above embodiment, if the terminal B is in the standby state, the server sends a trigger message to the terminal B before forwarding the customized reminder message. In the standby state, the module responsible for sending and receiving messages from the server is still in working state. After receiving the trigger message, the terminal B starts the terminal and feeds back a message of "the terminal is powered on" to the server. After receiving this message, the server forwards the customized reminder information to terminal B. the

After the terminal B stores the customized reminder information, it may be shut down and placed in a standby state. After the predetermined time arrives, the terminal can start automatically at regular intervals. Current mobile phones and the like have already realized the timing self-starting function. The reminder content can be played after the terminal is started. the

Referring to FIG. 2, it is another embodiment of the present invention. The difference from the previous embodiment is that the server stores the customized reminder information and sends the reminder information to the target terminal at the scheduled time. The specific process is as follows:

1. Same as the previous embodiment, the user of terminal A customizes a reminder message for terminal B through a certain interface, and sends the customized reminder message to the server through a certain protocol, such as HTTP protocol. This message includes The scheduled reminder time may be a one-time time or a periodic time; the information also includes the identification of terminal B, such as the number of the mobile phone or the ID of the set-top box; there is also customized reminder content in the message, the reminder content There can be many ways, such as text way, graphic way, multimedia way or network online playing way and so on. the

2. After receiving the customized reminder information sent by terminal A, the server stores the information, and according to the reminder time contained in the information and the identification of terminal B, sends a reminder information to terminal B when the scheduled time is reached. Contains customized reminder content. the

3. After receiving the reminder message sent by the server, terminal B plays the reminder content in the message. the

Similarly, in the above embodiment, if the terminal B is in the standby state, the server sends a trigger message to the terminal B before sending the reminder information. After terminal B receives the message to start and feeds back the message "The terminal is powered on" to the server. The server then sends a reminder message to terminal B. the

In order to achieve the above functions, the present invention provides a terminal device for customizing reminder information as shown in Figure 3, including:

The message sending and receiving module is responsible for communicating with the server and sending and receiving messages;

The customization module is used to provide the user with certain interface customization reminder information, and send it to the server through the message sending and receiving module;

The timing playback module is responsible for storing the received customized reminder information, and playing the reminder content when the scheduled time arrives. the

Further, the terminal also includes a starting module, which is used to start the terminal device after receiving the trigger message from the server in the standby state, and return a message of "the terminal is powered on" to the server; or in the standby state, when the scheduled time arrives , start the terminal device, and the reminder content will be played by the timer playing module. the

Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and equivalent technologies, the present invention also intends to include these modifications and variations. the
