Application: User terminal displaying interface for providing instant messaging service and operation method of the user terminal (Patent ID: US20230376635A1)
The patent filed by Kakao Corp. describes a user terminal that can display different interfaces based on the type of user account being used to access an instant messaging server. When a general account is used, a general interface for multiple services is displayed, while a protected account triggers a restricted interface where some services are limited. The protected interface excludes content related to restricted services from integrated search results based on user input within the messaging service.
The claims associated with the patent detail various aspects of the operation method for the user terminal, including displaying interfaces with removed advertisements, restricting access to certain chatrooms, and managing accounts connected to the protected account. Additionally, the patent covers features like providing guidance messages, displaying notification messages from business accounts, and controlling the display of images associated with links. The patent also addresses scenarios where approval is required from a protector account to access certain links, setting available times for accounts, and temporarily allowing restricted services upon user request. Overall, the patent aims to enhance user experience and security by customizing interfaces and access based on the type of user account being used within the instant messaging application.
