Abstract

Systems and methods for providing information are disclosed. An exemplary method may comprise determining a current service stage of a service, obtaining status information matching the current service stage, and providing the obtained status information on a locked screen of the terminal device.

Claims (57)

1. A method for providing information, the method comprising:

determining a current service stage of a service requested by a terminal device, wherein determining the current service stage comprises:

in response to determining that a passenger has not been picked up by a transportation service vehicle, obtaining a distance between the transportation service vehicle and a target location as a target distance;

determining a first transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the target distance exceeds or equals to a preset threshold;

determining a second transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the target distance is below the preset threshold; and

determining a third transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the passenger has been picked up and a transportation trip of the service has commenced;

based on the current service stage, obtaining status information matching the current service stage for displaying on a locked screen of the terminal device, wherein:

different pieces of status information match with different service stages for displaying,

the status information corresponding to the first transportation service stage comprises the target distance between the transportation service vehicle and the target location,

the status information corresponding to the second transportation service stage comprises vehicle information of the transportation service vehicle, and

the status information corresponding to the third transportation service stage comprises an estimated time to arrive at a destination of the transportation trip, and a traffic condition on a route to the destination of the transportation trip; and

upon determining that the screen of the terminal device is locked,

providing the status information matching the current service stage on the locked screen of the terminal device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the service comprises a vehicle service requested via Internet.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the target location comprises:

a pick-up location for the transportation service vehicle to pick up the passenger; or

a current location of the passenger.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the obtained status information on the locked screen of the terminal device comprises:

at the first transportation service stage, displaying the target distance between the transportation service vehicle and the target location.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the obtained status information on the locked screen of the terminal device comprises:

at the second transportation service stage, displaying the vehicle information of the transportation service vehicle.

6. A system for providing information, the system comprising a processor and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

determining a current service stage of a service requested by a terminal device, wherein determining the current service stage comprises:

in response to determining that a passenger has not been picked up by a transportation service vehicle, obtaining a distance between the transportation service vehicle and a target location as a target distance;

determining a first transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the target distance exceeds or equals to a preset threshold;

determining a second transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the target distance is below the preset threshold; and

determining a third transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the passenger has been picked up and a transportation trip of the service has commenced;

based on the current service stage, obtaining status information matching the current service stage for displaying on a locked screen of the terminal device, wherein:

different pieces of status information match with different service stages for displaying,

the status information corresponding to the first transportation service stage comprises the target distance between the transportation service vehicle and the target location,

the status information corresponding to the second transportation service stage comprises vehicle information of the transportation service vehicle, and

the status information corresponding to the third transportation service stage comprises an estimated time to arrive at a destination of the transportation trip, and a traffic condition on a route to the destination of the transportation trip; and

upon determining that the screen of the terminal device is locked,

providing the obtained status information matching the current service stage on the locked screen of the terminal device.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein:

the service comprises a vehicle service requested via Internet.

8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the target location comprises:

a pick-up location for the transportation service vehicle to pick up the passenger; or

a current location of the passenger.

9. The system of claim 6 , wherein providing the obtained status information on the locked screen of the terminal device comprises:

at the first transportation service stage, displaying the target distance between the transportation service vehicle and the target location.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:

determining a current service stage of a service requested by a terminal device, wherein determining the current service stage comprises:

in response to determining that a passenger has not been picked up by a transportation service vehicle, obtaining a distance between the transportation service vehicle and a target location as a target distance;

determining a first transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the target distance exceeds or equals to a preset threshold;

determining a second transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the target distance is below the preset threshold; and

determining a third transportation service stage as the current service stage, in response to determining that the passenger has been picked up and a transportation trip of the service has commenced;

based on the current service stage, obtaining status information matching the current service stage for displaying on a locked screen of the terminal device, wherein:

different pieces of status information match with different service stages for displaying,

the status information corresponding to the first transportation service stage comprises the target distance between the transportation service vehicle and the target location,

the status information corresponding to the second transportation service stage comprises vehicle information of the transportation service vehicle, and

the status information corresponding to the third transportation service stage comprises an estimated time to arrive at a destination of the transportation trip, and a traffic condition on a route to the destination of the transportation trip; and

upon determining that the screen of the terminal device is locked,

providing the status information matching the current service stage on the locked screen of the terminal device.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein providing the obtained status information on the locked screen of the terminal device comprises:

at the first transportation service stage, displaying the target distance between the transportation service vehicle and the target location.
