Abstract

Described is a method and system for displaying an unread message. The method for displaying an unread message includes: pulling an unread message in a lock screen state; and displaying a corresponding unread message application icon on a first active hotspot on a lock screen when an unread message exists, and otherwise, hiding the unread message application icon. The method for previewing an unread message includes: receiving information for activating an unread message application icon in a lock screen state, and displaying a detail entry containing a predetermined number of unread messages on a second active hotspot; dragging the unread message application icon to a third active hotspot to enter into a corresponding application main window, or dragging the unread message application icon to the detail entry to enter into a message window corresponding to the detail entry.
