Abstract
A method of synchronizing notification messages for electronic devices may include monitoring if an electronic device has a notification message. If the electronic device has a notification message, the method may include determining if the electronic device is on standby. If the electronic device is determined to be on standby, a notification message may be sent via a server to an active electronic device associated with the electronic device. An associated server and an electronic device are also provided. The methods, servers and electronic devices may facilitate gathering of notification messages.
Claims20
A method of synchronizing notification messages for electronic devices, the method comprising:
- monitoring if an electronic device has a notification message;
- if the electronic device has the notification message, determining if the electronic device is on standby;
- the electronic device submits a display request for the notification message to the server, wherein the display request carries the notification message and a message identifier;
- determining if the display request has been processed by the server during a first preset wait period;
- if the display request is determined to have been processed by the server during the first preset wait period, the server determines if an active electronic device is present;
- and
- if the server determines that the active electronic device is present, the server sends the notification message, according to the message identifier, to the active electronic device;
- wherein, if the electronic device is active, the electronic device displays the notification message.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a monitoring module configured to monitor if an electronic device has a notification message;
- a determining module configured to, if the monitoring module determines that the electronic device has the notification message, determine if the electronic device is on standby;
- a sending module configured to send a message;
- wherein, if the determining module determines that the electronic device is on standby, the sending module sends the notification message, via a server, to an active electronic device associated with the electronic device.
A server, comprising:
- a receiving module configured to receive a display request submitted by a standby electronic device, wherein the display request carries a notification message and a message identifier;
- a control module configured to time a first preset wait period and determine if the display request has been received and processed;
- if the control module determines that the display request has been received and processed, then the control module determines if the first preset wait period has passed;
- if the control module determines that the first preset wait period has not passed, the control module determines if an active electronic device is present;
- and
- a sending module configured to, if the control module determines that the active electronic device is present, send the notification message, according to the message identifier, to the active electronic device.
