Abstract

According to one embodiment, an incoming call display method applied to an electronic device configured to communicate with another electronic device via a network. The incoming call display method is directed to selectively display a first display, a second display and a third display as a response display on a display module when receiving an incoming call from the other electronic device. The response display is configured to indicate how to respond to the incoming call, where the first display is to indicate a response with video, the second display is to indicate a response by only voice, the third display is to indicate no response.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An incoming call display method applied to an electronic device configured to communicate with another electronic device via a network, the incoming call display method comprising:
 displaying selectively a first display, a second display and a third display as a response display on a display module when receiving an incoming call from the other electronic device, the response display being configured to indicate how to respond to the incoming call, the first display being configured to indicate a response with video, the second display being configured to indicate a response by only voice, the third display being configured to indicate no response.   
     
     
         2 . The incoming call display method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 displaying the response display at a position in a video display displayed on the display module when receiving the incoming call while viewing a program by use of the electronic device, the video display being configured to display the program.   
     
     
         3 . An electronic device configured to communicate with another electronic device via a network, the electronic device comprising:
 a display controller configured to display selectively a first display, a second display, and a third display as a response display on a display module when receiving an incoming call from the other electronic device, the response display being configured to indicate how to respond to the incoming call, the first display being configured to indicate a response with video, the second display being configured to indicate a response by only voice, the third display being configured to indicate no response.   
     
     
         4 . The electronic device of  claim 3 , wherein
 the display controller is configured to display the response display at a position in a video display displayed on the display module when receiving the incoming call while viewing a program by use of the electronic device, the video display being configured to display the program.   
     
     
         5 . An incoming call display system comprising:
 a first electronic device and a second electronic device configured to communicate with each other via a network, wherein   the first electronic device comprises a display controller configured to display selectively a first display, a second display and a third display as a response display on a display module when receiving an incoming call from the second electronic device, the response display being configured to indicate how to respond to the incoming call, the first display being configured to indicate a response with video, the second display being configured to indicate a response by only voice, the third display being configured to indicate no response.   
     
     
         6 . The incoming call display system of  claim 5 , wherein
 the display controller is configured to display the response display at a position in a video display displayed on the display module when receiving the incoming call while viewing a program by use of the first electronic device, the video display being configured to display the program.
