Communication terminal, and dial registration method and dial registration program therefor
View Patent ↗A communication terminal having one or more one-touch-dial buttons simplifies operations needed for registration of destination data such as phone numbers or mail addresses. A communication terminal (e.g., a cellular phone) having one or more one-touch-dial buttons includes a destination-data registration unit (e.g., a phone-directory database) that allows destination data such as phone numbers or mail addresses to be registered therein, a one-touch-dial registration unit that allows destination data to be registered therein so as to be associated with the one or more one-touch-dial buttons, and a control unit that, in response to an operation of the one or more one-touch-dial buttons, determines whether destination data has been registered in the one-touch-dial registration unit or the destination-data registration unit, and that outputs a result of the determination and a query message regarding registration of the destination data.
1. A communication terminal having one or more one-touch-dial buttons, the communication terminal comprising:
a one-touch-dial registration unit that allows destination data to be registered therein so as to be associated with the one or more one-touch-dial buttons;
a display that displays a screen showing a one-touch-dial registration;
a control unit that, in response to an operation of a one-touch-dial button of the one or more one-touch-dial buttons, makes destination data register in the one-touch-dial registration unit so as to be associated with the one-touch-dial button operated, based on a selection of the one-touch-dial registration from the screen showing the one-touch-dial registration on the display, in a case where destination data has not been registered in the one-touch-dial registration unit in relation to the one-touch-dial button operated.
2. The communication terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the display displays the screen showing selection information of the one-touch-dial registration in a case where destination data has not been registered in the one-touch-dial registration unit.
3. A dial registration method for a communication terminal having one or more one-touch-dial buttons, the dial registration method comprising the steps of:
registering destination data in a one-touch-dial registration unit so as to be associated with the one or more one-touch-dial buttons; and
in response to an operation of a one-touch-dial button of the one or more one-touch-dial buttons, making destination data register in the one-touch-dial registration unit so as to be associated with the one-touch-dial button operated, based on a selection of the one-touch-dial registration from a screen showing the one-touch-dial registration, in a case where destination data has not been registered in the one-touch-dial registration unit in relation to the one-touch-dial button operated.
4. A dial registration program for a communication terminal having one or more one-touch-dial buttons, the dial registration program allowing an information processing unit to execute the steps of:
registering destination data in a one-touch-dial registration unit so as to be associated with the one or more one-touch-dial buttons; and
in response to an operation of a one-touch-dial button of the one or more one-touch-dial buttons, making destination data register in the one-touch-dial registration unit so as to be associated with the one-touch-dial button operated, based on a selection of the one-touch-dial registration from a screen showing the one-touch-dial registration, in a case where destination data has not been registered in the one-touch-dial registration unit in relation to the one-touch-dial button operated.
