A method for instant messaging includes: sending a new message prompt message in a group when a user sends a new message in the group, prompting all members in the group that a new unread message exists in the group; receiving a read request configured to request reading of the new message sent from a terminal of any member in the group; and screening the read request according to a predefined rule so as to determine whether to allow the terminal of the member to display the new message. By achieving a selective group chat in a group, the present disclosure may accurately control the read permission of each member in the group and achieve group chatting with partial members without newly establishing a group or a topic, thus guaranteeing privacy and security of messages, greatly reducing operation complexity. |
