## Abstract

A method includes detecting a user-input instruction for displaying a user interface for notification management; displaying the user interface for notification management, where the user interface for notification management includes a classification option; receiving a user-input instruction for selecting the classification option; displaying at least two application types; detecting a user-input instruction for selecting an option of one application type of the at least two application types; displaying, in a same user interface, an identifier of at least one application corresponding to the selected application type and displaying a setting option of a UI prompt manner of a notification message for each of the at least one application; detecting an operation of a user on the setting option of the UI prompt manner of the at least one application; and saving the setting option of the UI prompt manner of the at least one application after the user operation.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A notification message management method used for a terminal, multiple applications configured to provide a notification message being installed on the terminal, and the method comprising:
detecting a user-input instruction for displaying a user interface (UI) for notification management;
displaying the UI for notification management, the UI for notification management comprising a classification option;
receiving a user-input instruction for selecting the classification option;
displaying options of at least two application types;
detecting a user-input instruction for selecting an option of one application type of the at least two application types;
displaying, in a same UI, identifiers of a plurality of applications corresponding to the selected application type;
displaying a setting option of a UI prompt manner of a notification message for each application;
detecting a user operation on the setting option of the UI prompt manner of the plurality of applications; and
setting the UI prompt manner of each application of the plurality of applications after the user operation.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the application type is classifying an application according to the UI prompt manner of the notification message for the application.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the application type comprises at least two of the following: blocking all notification messages for the application at a time, a lockscreen notification, a banner, a badge, a notification panel, a rolling notification, or a toast.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the application type is classifying an application according to frequency that the application provides the notification message.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein after saving the setting option of the UI prompt manner of the plurality of applications after the user operation, the method further comprises:
receiving a new notification message;
searching for an identifier of an application of the new notification message;
determining a UI prompt manner of the new notification message according to the setting option of the UI prompt manner of the plurality of applications and the identifier of the application of the new notification message; and
prompting the new notification message according to the UI prompt manner of the new notification message.

### Claim 6

A notification message management method used for a terminal, multiple applications configured to provide a notification message being installed on the terminal, and the method comprises:
detecting a user-input instruction for displaying a user interface (UI) for notification management;
displaying the UI for notification management, UI for notification management comprising a classification option;
detecting a user-input instruction for selecting the classification option;
displaying an option of a first UI prompt manner and an option of a second UI prompt manner, the first UI prompt manner being different from the second UI prompt manner;
detecting an instruction of a user for selecting the option of the first UI prompt manner;
displaying in a same UI: an identifier of a first application corresponding to the first UI prompt manner, an identifier of a second application corresponding to the first UI prompt manner, an option to disable a toggle of the first UI prompt manner of a notification message for the first application, and an option to disable a toggle of the second UI prompt manner of a notification message for the second application;
detecting a user operation for disabling the first UI prompt manner of the first application and a user operation for disabling the first UI prompt manner of the second application; and
setting the first UI prompt manner of the first application as disabled and setting the first UI prompt manner of the second application as disabled.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The method according to claim 6, wherein the first UI prompt manner is any one of a lockscreen notification, a banner, a badge, a notification panel, a rolling notification, or a toast, and the second UI prompt manner is any one of a lockscreen notification, a banner, a badge, a notification panel, a rolling notification, or a toast.

### Claim at position 8

-9. (canceled)

### Claim 10

A terminal, comprising:
a display circuit;
a memory;
at least one processor coupled to the display circuit, and the memory;
multiple applications stored in the memory that are capable of providing a notification message; and
one or more programs stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the at least one processor, the one or more programs causing the at least one processor to:
detect a user-input instruction for displaying a user interface (UI) for notification management;
display the UI for notification management, the UI for notification management comprising a classification option;
receive a user-input instruction for selecting the classification option;
display options of at least two application types;
detect a user-input instruction for selecting an option of one application type of the at least two application types;
display, in a same UI, identifiers of a plurality of applications corresponding to the selected application type and display a setting option of a UI prompt manner of a notification message for each application of the plurality of applications;
detect a user operation on the setting option of the UI prompt manner of the plurality of applications; and
set the UI prompt manner of each application of the plurality of applications after the user operation.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The terminal according to claim 10, wherein the application type is classifying an application according to the UI prompt manner of the notification message for the application.

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

The terminal according to claim 10, wherein the application type comprises at least two of the following: blocking all notification messages for the application at a time, a lockscreen notification, a banner, a badge, a notification panel, a rolling notification, or a toast.

### Claim 13 (depends on 10)

The terminal according to claim 10, wherein the one or more programs further cause e at least one processor to:
receive a new notification message;
search for an identifier of an application of the new notification message;
determine a UI prompt manner of the new notification message according to the setting option of the UI prompt manner of the plurality of applications and the identifier of the application of the new notification message; and
prompt the new notification message according to the UI prompt manner of the new notification message.

### Claim at position 13

-23. (canceled)
