Abstract

Disclosed is a method of operating a mobile terminal that is capable of interworking with a server, and the method includes: displaying a first user interface (UI) for managing a to-do list of a terminal user on a display unit; registering a task to be performed by the terminal user as a to-do item in the to-do list based on user information input through the first UI, and managing the plurality of to-do items registered in the to-do list; and when at least one of the plurality of to-do items is selected, performing an operation related to a task corresponding to the selected to-do item.

Claims (40)

1. A method of operating a mobile terminal in communication with a server computer through a network, the method comprising:

displaying, by a processor, a first user interface (UI) for managing a to-do list of a terminal user on a display unit of the mobile terminal;

registering, by the processor, a to-do of the terminal user as a to-do item in the to-do list based on user information input through the first UI,

classifying, by the processor, a plurality of to-do items registered in the to-do list into a predetermined plurality of first categories;

when at least one of the plurality of to-do items is selected in the first UI, performing, by the processor, an operation related to a task corresponding to the selected to-do item; and

extracting, by the processor, organizable to-do items within at least one of the predetermined plurality of first categories and displaying the extracted organizable to-do items on a second UI of the display unit, classified according to a predetermined plurality of second categories, different from the first categories, when a clean-up menu item displayed in the first UI is selected.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the performing the operation related to the task corresponding to the selected to-do item includes executing a function or an app service required for performing the task corresponding to the selected to-do item.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the performing the operation related to the task corresponding to the selected to-do item includes providing one or more operation option menu items required for performing the task on the display unit.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of second categories of the organizable to-do items includes at least one of a “to-do today”, an “old to-do”, an “overlapping to-do”, a “completed to-do”, and a “to-do shiftable to my-list”.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

when at least one of the organizable to-do items displayed in the second UI is selected, determining a second category to which the selected to-do item belongs.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

organizing the selected organizable to-do item using a predetermined scheme according to a kind of the determined second category.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein when the determined second category is any one of the “to-do today”, the “old to-do”, the “overlapping to-do”, and the “completed to-do”, the organizing the selected organizable to-do item includes deleting the selected organizable to-do item from the to-do list.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein when the determined second category is the “to-do shiftable to my-list”, the organizing the selected organizable to-do item includes shifting the selected to-do item to a corresponding second category item in a my-list.

9. The method of claim 4 , wherein when the second category of the organizable to-do items is the “to-do today”, the extracting of the organizable to-do items includes analyzing at least one of time information set in the plurality of to-do items and text information of the plurality of to-do items.

10. The method of claim 4 , wherein when the second category of the organizable to-do items is the “old to-do”, the extracting of the organizable to-do items includes analyzing at least one of time information set in the plurality of to-do items, information on time at which the plurality of to-do items are first registered, and text information of the plurality of to-do items.

11. The method of claim 4 , wherein when the second category of the organizable to-do items is the “overlapping to-do”, the extracting of the organizable to-do items includes extracting main keywords from text information corresponding to the plurality of to-do items and extracting the organizable to-do items based on similarity between the extracted main keywords.

12. The method of claim 4 , wherein when the second category of the organizable to-do items is the “to-do shiftable to my-list”, the extracting of the organizable to-do items includes extracting main keywords from text information corresponding to the plurality of to-do items and extracting the organizable to-do items based on similarity between the extracted main keywords and category items included in a my-list.

13. The method of claim 4 , wherein when the second category of the organizable to-do items is the “completed to-do”, the extracting of the organizable to-do items is based on at least one of whether mobile services related to the plurality of to-do items are executed and whether the plurality of to-do items are selected.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first UI includes at least one of a menu region for displaying operation menu items related to a to-do application, a task list region for displaying the to-do list of the terminal user, and a text input region for registering a new to-do in the to-do list.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the menu region of the first UI includes at least one of a screen switch icon for displaying a UI including a my-list, the clean-up menu item, and a banner icon for providing at least one of the plurality of to-do items registered in the to-do list in a form of a preview.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second UI includes a first indicator for individually selecting the organizable to-do items and a second indicator for collectively selecting the organizable to-do items, together with the organizable to-do items for each second category.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the extracting of the organizable to-do items includes searching for the organizable to-do items using a predetermined scheme according to a kind of the plurality of second categories.

18. A mobile terminal, comprising:

a display unit;

a wireless communication unit configured to provide a wireless communication interface with a remote server; and

a control unit configured to:

display a first user interface (UI) for managing a to-do list of a terminal user on the display unit,

register a to-do of the terminal user as a to-do item in the to-do list based on user information input through the first UI,

classify a plurality of to-do items registered in the to-do list into a predetermined plurality of first categories,

when at least one of the plurality of to-do items is selected in the first UI, perform an operation related to a task corresponding to the selected to-do item, and

extract organizable to-do items within at least one of the predetermined plurality of first categories and display the organizable extracted to-do items on a second UI of the display unit, classified according to a predetermined plurality of second categories, different from the first categories, when a clean-up menu item displayed in the first UI is selected.

19. A method of operating a server in communication with a mobile terminal through a network, the method comprising:

transmitting, by a processor, information regarding a first user interface (UI) for managing a to-do list of a terminal user to the mobile terminal;

receiving, by the processor, user information input through the first UI from the mobile terminal;

registering, by the processor, a to-do of the terminal user as a to-do item in a to-do list based on the received input information,

classifying, by the processor, a plurality of to-do items registered in the to-do list into a predetermined plurality of first categories;

when at least one of the plurality of to-do items is selected in the first UI, providing, by the processor, a mobile service related to a task corresponding to the selected to-do item to the mobile terminal; and

extracting, by the processor, organizable to-do items within at least one of the predetermined plurality of first categories and transmitting information regarding a second UI including the extracted organizable to-do items to the mobile terminal, the extracted to-do items being classified according to a predetermined plurality of second categories, different from the first categories, when a clean-up menu item displayed in the first UI is selected.
