As shown in Figure 1, it is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of the short message merging method of the present invention, including steps S100～S300:

Step S100: Obtain the target number/source number of the sent/received short message.

SMS records in mobile communication devices are stored in their corresponding databases. Taking Android terminal equipment as an example, the storage path of its SMS database is "content://sms//". By reading the information in the SMS database, All SMS communication records on the terminal device can be obtained, including SMS records in the SMS inbox, outbox, and draft box. The obtained SMS records include the following main information:

_id: SMS serial number;

thread_id: conversation serial number, the serial number of the SMS sent to and from the same number is the same;

address: the contact address, that is, the contact number;

person: contact name, if the contact number is in the address book, it is the specific name, and it is null for strangers;

date: date;

body: the specific content of the message.

In order to obtain the newly added SMS record, by monitoring the broadcast and the SMS database at the same time, when the broadcast is intercepted or the SMS database is monitored, the address information of the SMS record, that is, the contact number information, is obtained. So far, the target number/source number of the sent/received SMS has been obtained.

Step S200: When the obtained number is a number stored in the local contact, obtain its corresponding classification identifier from the reliable number pool; otherwise, obtain its corresponding classification identifier from the preset unfamiliar number pool.

Based on the number obtained in step S100, query the classification identification corresponding to the number in the reliable number pool and/or the unfamiliar number pool, wherein the reliable number pool and/or the unfamiliar number pool include the correspondence between the number and the classification identification , and multiple different numbers are allowed to have the same classification identifier. Specifically, the classification identifier includes any one or more of contact name, contact unit, contact group, and contact security level.

The reliable number pool is mainly the local contact number and contact information stored in the address book, wherein the contact information can be used as the classification identification, and the contact number and classification identification in the reliable number pool establish an N-1 Mapping relationship, that is, the same classification identifier can correspond to multiple different numbers. For example, a contact has two numbers, and the user stores the name of the contact, the first number and the second number in the address book respectively, then in the reliable number pool, the name of the contact is used as a classification identifier to establish a relationship with the two numbers. mapping relationship. When the number obtained based on step S100 exists in the reliable number pool, its corresponding classification identifier is obtained in the reliable number pool.

The unfamiliar number pool also stores multiple contact numbers and their corresponding classification identifiers, mainly storing multiple related numbers and their classification identifiers of various companies, and also establishes N-1 of contact numbers and classification identifiers in the unfamiliar number pool mapping relationship. For example, in the unfamiliar number pool, a number group composed of Ping An Company of China and three numbers 95511, 95512, and 106980095511931 is stored, and the contact unit, Ping An Company of China, is used as the classification identification of the number group to establish Ping An Company of China and Ping An Company. The mapping relationship of the three numbers. When the number acquired based on step S100 does not exist in the reliable number pool, it is searched in the unfamiliar number pool, and its corresponding classification identifier is obtained.

Preferably, in the reliable number pool, the contact group can also be used as the same classification identifier of multiple numbers, and the group can be a common attribute of the contacts of the multiple numbers in a certain period of time. For example, if a user needs to communicate with multiple customers by SMS at the same time, if the user adds the group attribute of "working group" to the address book information of the multiple contacts, the group "work group" will be used in the reliable number pool. Group" is used as the classification identifier of the group number group, and the mapping relationship with the three numbers is established. When the number obtained in step S100 is queried for its corresponding contact person and group attribute in the reliable number pool, the group attribute is obtained as the corresponding first category identifier, and the contact name is used as the corresponding second category identifier .

Furthermore, in the reliable number pool and/or the unfamiliar number pool, the contact security level can also be used as the classification identification of multiple numbers. The contact level can be divided into multiple levels such as top secret, intimate, reliable, fraud, etc., top secret The security level of intimacy can be set by the user's contact information in the address book (that is, the reliable number pool), which is used to correspond to the social needs of different occasions or different groups of people; the security level of reliability and fraud can be collected from the unfamiliar number pool Multiple numbers under this security level. When the corresponding contact number is found in the reliable number pool and/or unfamiliar number pool based on the number obtained in step S100, the security level attribute of the contact is obtained as the first classification identifier, and the contact name is used as the corresponding first classification. Two-category identification.

Specifically, the unfamiliar number pool is stored in the cloud server, and the unfamiliar number pool needs to be preset on the terminal device first, so as to improve the efficiency of obtaining the classification identification of the target number/source number, as shown in Figure 2. Schematic flow chart of an embodiment of preset unfamiliar number pool, including steps S210-S230:

Step S210: receiving the unknown number pool data packet issued by the cloud server;

Step S220: Parse the data packet and save the strange number pool in the local database, so as to realize the preset of the strange number pool.

The cloud server sends the unfamiliar number pool data packet to the terminal device through the TCP/IP protocol through the remote interface, and the terminal device parses the received strange number pool data packet and saves it in the local database to realize the pre-preparation of the unfamiliar number pool. place. Additionally, next steps are included:

Step S230: regularly or irregularly receive the update package of the unknown number pool sent by the cloud server, so as to complete the update of the locally preset unknown number pool.

The cloud server constantly updates the numbers in the pool of unfamiliar numbers and their corresponding classification marks to better distinguish and unify various numbers, and sends them to the terminal equipment regularly or irregularly for the identification of the unfamiliar number pool in the terminal equipment. renew.

Step S300: Based on the classification identifier, merge the sent/received short message into the session item corresponding to the classification identifier in the local short message session record.

Based on the classification identification obtained in step S200, check whether there is a session item with the classification identification in the local SMS session record, if there is, then the short message sent/received is merged into the session item, if it does not exist, then the The above-mentioned sent/received SMS is saved as a new session item in the local SMS session record.

Wherein, each of the session items has its corresponding classification identification stored, and the classification identification of each session item can be displayed on the operation interface for the user to quickly understand the classification identification corresponding to the session item, or it can be hidden in the session item, Just embody the classification logic in the session item.

And when the conversation item is expanded, the short messages of different numbers corresponding to the category identifier are all displayed in the same conversation. There are various ways of displaying the SMS conversation records of multiple numbers in the conversation item:

One implementation manner is to display the short message conversation records of all numbers in the same conversation item in chronological order. For example, in a conversation item, user A carries out short message communication with 3 numbers, and the date information of every short message is included in the information of the short message record that obtains, with this date information all short messages in this conversation item (including user and The short messages received and sent between the 3 numbers) are sorted and displayed.

Another implementation mode is to display the short message records of all numbers in the same conversation item by different numbers in different areas and then sort and display them in chronological order. For example, in a conversation item, user A communicates with three numbers a, b, and c by short message, and the information of the obtained short message record contains the contact number (or conversation number) and date information of each short message, first press Different numbers are displayed in different areas, that is, the SMS conversation records of user A and number a are displayed in one area of the conversation item, and the SMS conversation records of user A, number b, and number c are displayed in another area of the conversation item , and then sort and display the SMS session records in each display area in chronological order.

The conversation item defaults to a sorting and display mode of the short message conversation records. Preferably, each session item allows customization of different sorting and display modes of SMS session records. As shown in Figure 3, it is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of the sorting display method of SMS conversation records in custom conversation items, including steps S310～S330:

Step S310: receiving a custom instruction for sorting and displaying the SMS conversation records in the conversation items from the user interface;

Step S320: In response to the custom instruction, provide an option list including various sorting and display modes of SMS conversation records;

Step S330: In response to the user's instruction to select a sorting display mode in the option list, sort and display the SMS conversation records in the conversation item accordingly.

In each session item, provide a button such as "SMS sorting method", and the user clicks this button to trigger a custom instruction for customizing the sorting display method of SMS session records in the session item, terminal device/client In response to the custom instruction, an option list pops up, the option list includes multiple sorting and display modes of short message conversation records, and each display mode provides a corresponding selection button. One embodiment is that when the user selects a sorting display mode in the option list, the terminal device/client responds to the selection instruction, and sorts and displays the SMS conversation records in the conversation item accordingly, This display is a preview display, and a button such as "OK" is provided in the option list.
