The information acquisition method provided by the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an information obtaining method according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 1, the information obtaining method according to the embodiment may be executed by an electronic device, and includes the following steps:

step 101, under the condition that a first interface of a first program is displayed, displaying at least one alternative program icon, wherein the at least one alternative program icon is a program icon associated with the first program.

The first program is a program installed on the electronic device, and the "program" may also be referred to as an "application" in this application, such as a social application, a financial application, a payment application, a game application, and the like. The first interface of the first program is an interface currently displayed on the electronic device, and the first program may only include the first interface, or may include other interfaces besides the first interface, which is not limited herein.

The at least one alternative program icon may be automatically displayed in a case where the first interface is displayed, for example, if it is detected that the first interface includes a preset keyword, the at least one alternative program icon determined according to the preset keyword is automatically displayed, for example, the preset keyword may be "pay out", "income", "bill", or the like, and accordingly, the at least one alternative program icon may include an icon of a payment application; the at least one alternative program icon may also be displayed based on user input. When the user needs to acquire information from other application programs, for example, information is copied from other application programs, the user can click on a preset control on the first interface, and the electronic device displays at least one alternative program icon.

For example, a first interface is displayed with a preset control, such as the first interface shown in fig. 2a, wherein the first program is an accounting application, the first interface is a "spending" interface of the accounting application, the user input is an input clicking on preset control 1 in fig. 2a, and in response to the user input, an associated application window may be displayed, and the associated application window may include a program icon associated with the first program. As shown in fig. 2b, at least one alternative program icon is included in the associated application window 2. The program icon associated with the first program may be understood as a program icon belonging to the same program type as the first program, for example, if the first program is a financial program, then the program belonging to the same program type as the first program is also a financial program; if the first program is a payment program, the program which belongs to the same program type as the first program is also the payment program; the program icon associated with the first program may be understood as an icon of a program having an association relationship with background data of the first program, and the background data may be understood as data that can be acquired by the program, for example, the shopping program may acquire expense data of purchasing an item through the shopping program, the mobile banking program may acquire expense data of paying through the mobile banking program, and the shopping program and the mobile banking program may be considered as programs associated with each other.

The at least one alternative program icon may be displayed in hover over the first interface (e.g., in hover over the top left corner, top right corner, etc. of the first interface), as shown in FIG. 2 b; and the first interface can be displayed in a split screen mode.

The at least one alternative program icon may be automatically recommended by a recommendation algorithm for the user to quickly switch to the desired program. Meanwhile, the user is supported to perform the custom operation of the associated program according to the personal use habit, that is, the associated application window may further include an addition control, such as a "+" icon (i.e., an addition control) shown in fig. 2b, and the user may add another application installed on the electronic device through the addition control. The user may also trigger the electronic device to delete the program icon by long-pressing the program icon in the associated application window.

And the application program corresponding to the at least one alternative program icon is an installed application program on the electronic equipment.

Step 102, receiving a first input of a user. The first input may be a manual input or a voice input, etc., and is not limited herein. For example, the first input may include a click operation and a copy operation, specifically, a certain icon of the at least one candidate program icon is clicked to run an application program corresponding to the icon, and then information on an interface of the application program is copied.

Step 103, responding to the first input, and displaying first information in a target area of a display screen, wherein the first information is information in a target program, and a target program icon corresponding to the target program is an icon in the at least one candidate program icon.

The target program may be a program selected based on the first input. The first information may include information copied from interfaces of one or more programs in the at least one alternative program icon, for example, the at least one alternative program includes the second program and the third program, the first information may include information copied from an interface or interfaces of the second program, and may also include information copied from interfaces of the first program and the second program, that is, the first information may include information obtained from at least one interface of one application in the at least one alternative program (i.e., the program to which the at least one alternative program icon corresponds), or information obtained from interfaces of a plurality of applications in the at least one alternative program.

In this embodiment, in a case of displaying a first interface of a first program, at least one alternative program icon is displayed, where the at least one alternative program icon is a program icon associated with the first program; receiving a first input of a user; and responding to the first input, and displaying first information in a target area of a display screen, wherein the first information is information in a target program, and a target program icon corresponding to the target program is an icon in the at least one candidate program icon. Under the condition that the electronic equipment displays the first interface of the first program, the at least one alternative program icon associated with the first program is automatically displayed, so that a user can quickly acquire first information based on the at least one alternative program icon, the user does not need to search from all applications installed in the electronic equipment, the searching efficiency can be improved, and the information acquisition efficiency is high.

In the above, the receiving a first input of the user includes:

receiving a first sub-input of a user to a target program icon in the at least one alternative program icon;

responding to the first sub-input, and displaying a second interface, wherein the second interface is an interface of the target program;

receiving a second sub-input of the first information in the second interface by the user;

the displaying, in response to the first input, first information in a target area of a display screen of the electronic device includes:

displaying an information cache window on the display screen in response to the second sub-input, the information cache window including the first information; wherein at least one item of information of at least one program is cached and displayed. The information cache window can cache one or more pieces of information, and under the condition that the information cache window caches a plurality of pieces of information, a user can check or copy the plurality of pieces of information at one time through the information cache window without directly switching to and fro among a plurality of applications to acquire the information, so that the information acquisition efficiency is improved.

Specifically, the first sub-input may be a click input, a slide input, and the like, for example, a target program icon is clicked, an application (the application may be referred to as a second program) corresponding to the target program icon is opened, and a second interface is displayed, where the second interface may be any one interface of the second program, for example, the second interface is an interface (i.e., a main interface) displayed after the second program is opened, and the second interface may also be an interface displayed after a certain function of a first interface of the second program is clicked, which is not limited herein.

Optionally, when the application corresponding to the target program icon includes at least two interfaces, the second interface is an interface, of the at least two interfaces, in which the degree of association with the information displayed on the first interface is greater than a first threshold. That is, in a case where the target program includes at least two interfaces, before the displaying the second interface, the method further includes: and determining an interface with the relevance degree of the information displayed by the first interface being greater than a first threshold value in the at least two interfaces as a second interface, wherein the interface with the relevance degree of the information displayed by the first interface being greater than the first threshold value has a higher possibility of meeting the user requirements, so that the user can be prevented from manually switching to a required interface, and the user operation efficiency is improved.

The information displayed in the first interface may be understood as: the label information displayed on the first interface may be displayed separately, for example, as a shopping label 6 shown in fig. 2c, or may be displayed in a pair with an input box, as shown in fig. 2a, where "sort" is the label information corresponding to one information input box. The first threshold may be set according to practical situations, and is not limited herein.

The degree of association with the information displayed in the first interface may be understood as a degree of association with a character type or a semantic type of the information displayed in the first interface. For example, the first interface includes an information input box, the information input box corresponds to a piece of tag information, the character type of the tag information (corresponding to the character type of the information displayed in the first interface) can be understood as the character type of the information input into the information input box, and if the character type of the information input into the information input box is a numeric type, the information displayed in the first interface is the character type; if the character type of the information input into the information input box is a text type (which can be understood as a non-numeric type, such as Chinese characters, Pinyin and the like), the information displayed in the first interface is the text type.

In addition, the semantic type of the information displayed in the first interface can be determined by performing semantic analysis on the information, and the semantic type is determined according to the semantic. For example, if the semantic of the information is an expression expenditure, the semantic type is an expenditure type; if the semantic meaning of the information is the expression income, the semantic type is the income type.

The second sub-input may be an input for selecting the first information, such as a click input, a slide input, etc., and further, the second sub-input may further include a copy operation. Based on the second sub-input, an information cache window (also referred to as an information list) is displayed in a floating manner on the first interface, for example, the information cache window is displayed in a floating manner at the upper left corner, the lower right corner, and the like of the first interface, or the information cache window is displayed in a floating manner beside the first information. The information cache window includes first information.

For example, as shown in fig. 2d, after the user selects the second program (e.g., program 11), the second program is preferentially displayed from large to small according to the degree of association with the information displayed on the first interface, and a bill generated by shopping in the second program is displayed corresponding to the shopping withdrawal item; and after the content needing to be copied is found, the copying operation can be finished by long pressing.

After the copying is finished, the first information copied by the user is automatically stored, the first information is stored and displayed in the information cache window at the lower left corner, as identified by the black hollow circle at the lower left corner of fig. 2e, the user can click the identifier to display or hide the displayed information cache window, and the user can conveniently check the copied information.

Further, whether the construction of the information cache window is completed or not is judged; if the construction is finished, clicking a black button at the upper right corner of the associated application window, and closing the floating window for displaying; otherwise, the third program (e.g., program 12 in fig. 2 i) and the fourth program (e.g., program 13 in fig. 2 j) are selected from the associated application windows again, and the information is selected and copied again to construct the information cache window. The information cache window can also be displayed on the first interface in a floating mode. The information cache window may include multiple pieces of information copied from the same interface or different interfaces of one program, or may include multiple pieces of information copied from different programs.

In this embodiment, through the first sub-input and the second sub-input, information may be copied from a program corresponding to at least one candidate program icon associated with the first program, for example, multiple pieces of information may be copied from the same interface or different interfaces of one program, or multiple pieces of information may be copied from different programs, and the copied information may be displayed in the information cache window.

Further, after the information cache window is displayed on the display screen, the method further includes:

receiving second input of the first information in the information cache window by a user;

displaying the first information at a target location of the first interface in response to the second input;

wherein the target position is determined from the second input.

Specifically, the second input may be an input of selecting the first information in the information cache window, and may be an input by a user through a finger, a touch device, or the like, such as a click input, a slide input, or the like. Through the second input, the first information can be pasted to the target position of the first interface, the whole process is simple and convenient to operate, and the pasting efficiency is improved. Further, the second input may include a third sub-input and a fourth sub-input, and a target position may be determined according to the third sub-input, for example, the third sub-input may be a click input, and the target position is a click position of the click input, or the third sub-input may be a slide input, and a start position or an end position of the slide input is a target position; the fourth sub-input is an input that selects the first information (i.e., the first information can be copy-pasted to the destination location via the fourth sub-input).

As shown in fig. 2k, clicking the information list button shown by reference numeral 3 in the figure, popping up an information cache window, displaying all information included in the information cache window, clicking a target position (shown by reference numeral 4 in fig. 2 k) in the main window, and then clicking corresponding information in the information cache window (shown by reference numeral 5 in fig. 2 k) to complete the copying and pasting of the information at the corresponding position.

In the embodiment, after the information cache window is displayed on the display screen, the first information displayed in the information cache window can be input to the target position of the first interface through the second input, the whole operation is simple and convenient, and the information copying and pasting efficiency is high.

In addition, by adopting a classification method based on a decision tree, all contents of the information list can be classified and displayed in groups according to the display contents of the main interface (which can also be understood as the current display interface), for example, the information list of the accounting application can be classified autonomously according to the income, expense and transfer accounts of the main interface, so that the subsequent pasting and recording of a user are facilitated, for example, each entry in fig. 2k corresponds to the income, expense and transfer accounts of the main interface respectively, and specifically, the entries corresponding to the income, expense and transfer accounts can be displayed by adopting different colors respectively.

The main interface can be freely switched at different positions, one is switched to the income item shown in figure 2l, the sequence of the income item entries (three items in the middle) in the information list is increased, the income item entries are automatically replaced to the forefront for display, and the user can conveniently edit at one time. The second is to switch to a list of information associated with a particular item of the first program, which is strongly associated with a shopping expense as in fig. 2m, and may be marked in red). After the copying is finished, the information list button can be clicked to clear and hide the list, and the whole interaction process is finished.

In one implementation, the display information caching window includes at least one of:

displaying the first information in the information cache window under the condition that the number of the information items cached in the information cache window is 0;

displaying the first information and at least one item of history information in the information cache window under the condition that the number of the cached information in the information cache window is greater than 0 and less than the maximum caching amount of the information cache window, wherein the history information is cached information before the first input is received;

and replacing one item of information in the information displayed in the information cache window with the first information under the condition that the number of the information cached in the information cache window is equal to the maximum caching amount of the information cache window and the information displayed in the information cache window comprises all cached information.

In particular, in the construction of the information cache window, the information cache window may be constructed using the processing logic shown in fig. 2 n.

When no information is stored in the information cache window (that is, the number of information items cached in the information cache window is 0), that is, the added first information is the first piece, the information cache window displays only the current copied content (as shown in fig. 2 e), and prompts the user that the storage is successfully completed. For example, if the first information is "200 yuan for lunch spending", the information buffer window displays "200 yuan for lunch spending".

When partial information exists in the information cache window but the list is not full, only displaying the content of the last piece of copied information and the first information in the information cache window (as shown in fig. 2 f), prompting the user of the current storage state, for example, if the last piece of copied information is 'breakfast expenditure 20 yuan', and the first information is 'lunch expenditure 200 yuan', displaying two pieces of information of 'breakfast expenditure 20 yuan' and 'lunch expenditure 200 yuan' in the information cache window, and further, the two pieces of information can be divided into rows of information so as to be convenient for the user to view; or displaying at least one item of history information in the information cache window, wherein the history information is cached before the first input is received, for example, if the cached information before the first input is received is 'breakfast expenditure 20 yuan', the first information is 'lunch expenditure 200 yuan', and then displaying two items of information 'breakfast expenditure 20 yuan' and 'lunch expenditure 200 yuan' in the information cache window.

When the information cache window is full (the number of the stored information is greater than the preset maximum number of storage items N), all the stored information is displayed (as shown in FIG. 2 g), and the user manually clicks the information to be replaced according to personal needs (as shown in FIG. 2 h), so that the current information is copied and stored. N may be set according to actual conditions, for example, a value of 5 or 10. For example, if N is 5, if 5 pieces of information are currently displayed in the information cache window, and the first information needs to be stored, the user may click "breakfast expenditure 20 yuan" in the information cache window to replace "breakfast expenditure 20 yuan" with the first information for storage.

In the above, the information in the information cache window can be displayed according to different conditions, so that the flexibility of displaying the information cache window can be improved.

In the above, in a case that the information cache window includes at least two items of information, the displaying the information cache window on the display screen includes:

displaying information matched with the information type corresponding to at least one information input frame in the first interface in the information cache window according to a preset display mode;

or displaying information matched with the interface function type of the first interface in the information cache window according to a preset display mode;

or, displaying the at least two items of information in a classified manner; the information from the same program is in the same category, or the information with the relevance degree with respect to the information displayed in the first interface being greater than a second threshold value in the at least two items of information is in the same category, or the information with the relevance degree with respect to the function of the first interface being greater than a third threshold value in the at least two items of information is in the same category.

Specifically, the preset display mode may be highlighting (for example, thickening or yellow marking), or adjusting the display position, for example, displaying in the first half area of the information cache window. The first interface comprises at least one information input box, the type of information corresponding to the information input box can be understood as the character type of the information needing to be input into the information input box, for example, for a bill input box, the type of information input into the input box is the number type, the information of the number type in the information cache window can be displayed in a bold type, for a name input box, the information input into the input box is text (i.e. non-numbers, such as Chinese characters or foreign characters), and the information of the text type in the information cache window can be displayed in a bold type.

The information type corresponding to the information input box can also be understood as the semantic type of the information needing to be input into the information input box, for example, whether the information input into the information input box records expenditure or income; if the expense is recorded, the information for recording the expense in the information cache window can be displayed in a bold mode; if the record income is generated, the information used for recording the income in the information cache window can be displayed in a bold mode.

In addition, at least two items of information may be classified and displayed, for example, information from the same program may be classified into the same category, or information of the at least two items of information that is more than a second threshold in association with information displayed on the first interface may be classified into the same category, or information of the at least two items of information that is more than a third threshold in association with a function of the first interface may be classified into the same category. The second threshold and the third threshold may be set according to practical situations, for example, 80% or 90%, etc., and are not limited herein.

The information of which the degree of association with the information displayed in the first interface is greater than a second threshold value in the at least two items of information can be obtained according to a recommendation algorithm, or the information of which the degree of association with the function of the first interface is greater than a third threshold value in the at least two items of information can be obtained according to the recommendation algorithm.

Specifically, the recommendation algorithm may use a text-based keyword clustering, for example, using an unsupervised clustering algorithm, and then vectorize the text according to topics (topic), such as information in the first interface, and may associate keywords such as "income", "expense", "consumption", "transfer", and the like with the at least two items of information to obtain association degrees, and rank the information according to the association degrees, and regard information with the association degree greater than a second threshold value with the information displayed in the first interface in the at least two items of information as the same category.

The functions in the first interface can be keywords for shopping, payment and the like, the keywords of the first interface functions are associated with the at least two items of information to obtain association degrees, the association degrees are ranked according to the association degrees, and the information of which the association degrees with the functions of the first interface are larger than a third threshold value in the at least two items of information is regarded as the same category.

Further, information with the information relevance degree larger than a second threshold value and displayed in the first interface in the at least two items of information is in the same category, and information with the information relevance degree smaller than or equal to the second threshold value and displayed in the first interface in the at least two items of information is in the same category; the information with the relevance degree with the function of the first interface being greater than a third threshold value in the at least two items of information is in the same classification, and the information with the relevance degree with the function of the first interface being less than or equal to the third threshold value in the at least two items of information is in the same classification.

Wherein the information displayed in the first interface is understood to be: the label information displayed on the first interface may be displayed separately, for example, as a shopping label shown in fig. 2c, or may be displayed in pair with the input box, as shown in fig. 2a, "classified" as the label information corresponding to one information input box. The degree of association with the information displayed in the first interface may be understood as a degree of association with a character type or semantic type of the information displayed in the first interface.

The function of the first interface may be understood as a function corresponding to the first interface, for example, if the first interface is an interface for recording user expenses, the function of the first interface is to record user expenses, information with a degree of association with the user expenses being greater than a third threshold in the at least two pieces of information is in the same category, and information with a degree of association with the user expenses being less than or equal to the third threshold in the at least two pieces of information is in the same category.

In the foregoing, when the information caching window includes at least two items of information, the information caching window is displayed on the display screen, and information that meets requirements (for example, information that matches an information type corresponding to at least one information input box in the first interface, or information that matches an interface function type of the first interface) may be displayed according to a preset display manner (for example, bold or yellow) to draw attention of a user, or the information is displayed in a classified manner, so that the user can obtain required information quickly.

In one implementation, before the displaying the at least one alternative program icon, the method further comprises:

displaying a preset control on the first interface;

receiving a first input of a user to the preset control;

the displaying at least one alternative program icon includes:

in response to the first input, at least one alternative program icon is displayed.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2a, a first interface (the first program is an accounting application, and the first interface is a "expenditure" interface of the accounting application), where reference numeral 1 in the figure is a preset control, and a black dot icon in the figure is a black dot icon, and the black dot icon is clicked, an associated application window is displayed on the first interface in a floating manner, as shown in fig. 2b, and reference numeral 2 in fig. 2b is an associated application window, and the associated application window includes at least one alternative program icon.

In fig. 2b, the associated application window displays icons for a plurality of content related applications, the user being free to select which application to view. The specific associated application can be determined by an intelligent recommendation algorithm, for example, fast personalized recommendation can be realized by using an unsupervised clustering algorithm, text-based keyword clustering can be used, and then text vectorization is performed according to topic, for example, the bookkeeping application can automatically associate keywords such as "income", "expense", "consumption", "transfer", and the like to a payment application, a mobile banking application, and the like. Meanwhile, the preference degree of the user to different recommended associated applications is determined according to the utilization rate of the user to each application, the associated applications are weighted and sorted, and the user can conveniently and quickly find the commonly used applications.

In the above, based on the first input, the at least one alternative program icon is displayed, so that a user can conveniently start a program based on the at least one alternative program icon and quickly obtain copy information, the user does not need to search all applications installed in the electronic device, the searching efficiency can be improved, and the information obtaining efficiency is high.

In addition, the user can manually and freely add and delete the applications in the associated application window (also called as the associated window) (for example, the applications are expanded by adding buttons, and the applications are deleted by pressing program icons for a long time), so that the user preference is met, and the use convenience and experience of the user are improved.

In order to realize accurate recommendation association aiming at user preferences, different associated applications can be added on different operation pages (namely different interfaces of a first program) of the same application, so that the user requirements are refined, namely the associated applications can be not only related to the functions of the first program, but also can be refined to be strongly related to a certain content of the current operation page, and the query operation of a user is further simplified. For example, before the displaying at least one program icon, the method further includes:

determining at least one alternative program icon matching the program function type of the first program;

or determining at least one alternative program icon matched with the information displayed in the first interface;

or, in the case of receiving a third input of the user, in response to the third input, determining an icon selected by the third input as an alternative program icon.

Specifically, the program function type may be understood as a program type, for example, if the first program is a financial program, a program belonging to the same program type as the first program is also a financial program; if the first program is a payment program, then the program that is of the same program type as the first program is also a payment program.

The information displayed in the first interface may be understood as label information displayed on the first interface, and the label information may be displayed separately, for example, as a shopping label in fig. 2c, or may be displayed in pair with an input box, as shown in fig. 2a, "classified" as label information corresponding to one information input box.

For example, in the billing application, as shown in fig. 2c, and in particular to the expenditure item interface shown in fig. 2c, when the user clicks on the "shopping" category in the expenditure category, the associated application in the upper right-hand associated window changes accordingly, the application strongly related to shopping is recommended to the user for viewing, and the applications are prioritized according to the frequency of use of such applications by the user, and the common applications of the user, such as the

programs

11 and 12 in fig. 2c, are displayed preferentially. Similarly, when the catering items are clicked, the catering applications such as the program 16 are preferentially recommended, so that the users can conveniently and quickly select the catering items.

In addition, the alternative program icon may also be determined by a third input of the user, e.g., the associated application window may further include an add control, such as the "+" icon (i.e., add control) shown in fig. 2b, through which the user may click to add another application installed by the electronic device.

In the above, the alternative program icon may be determined based on automatic matching of the electronic device, or may be determined based on user operation, which improves flexibility in determining the alternative program icon.

The following illustrates an information acquisition method provided in the present application. As shown in fig. 2o, the method specifically includes the following steps:

after opening a first program (e.g. an accounting application), and when it is necessary to copy information from an external application, the user may click on the black icon in the upper right corner of the display in fig. 2a, and an associated application window (also referred to as an associated window) is displayed in a floating manner in the current window, as shown in fig. 2b, step 201.

The association window may display icons for a plurality of content related applications, and the user may freely select the application to view. The specific associated application can be determined by an intelligent recommendation algorithm, for example, fast personalized recommendation can be realized by using an unsupervised clustering algorithm, text-based keyword clustering can be used, and then text vectorization is performed according to topic, for example, a billing application can be automatically associated to a payment application, a shopping application and a mobile banking application by keywords such as "income", "expense", "consumption", "transfer", and the like. Meanwhile, the preference degree of the user to different recommended associated applications is determined according to the utilization rate of the user to each application, the weighted sequencing of the associated applications is carried out, and the user can conveniently and quickly link the common applications.

In addition, the user can manually and freely add and delete the application in the associated window, such as expanding by adding buttons and deleting by long-time pressing program icons, so that the user preference is met, and the use convenience and experience of the user are improved.

In order to realize accurate recommendation association aiming at user preference, different associated applications can be additionally arranged on different operation pages of the same application, the user requirements are refined, namely the associated applications can be not only related to the functions of the first program, but also can be refined to be strongly related to a certain content of the current operation page, and the user query operation is further simplified. For example, in the billing application, specifically to the item interface shown in fig. 2c, when the user clicks on a shopping category in the expenditure category, the associated application in the top-right associated window changes accordingly, the application strongly related to shopping is recommended to the user for viewing, and the applications are prioritized according to the frequency of use of the applications by the user, and the payment applications such as the program 11 and the program 12 shown in fig. 2c, which are commonly used by the user, are preferentially displayed. Similarly, when the catering items are clicked, the catering applications such as the program 16 are preferentially recommended, so that the users can conveniently and quickly select the catering items.

Step 202, the user selects the association program 11, can normally operate the content of the association application floating interface, and preferentially display the content according to the first interface association information of the user, for example, a bill generated by shopping by the display program 14 corresponding to the shopping expenditure item; after the content to be copied is found, the long press can complete the copying operation as shown in fig. 2 d.

Step 203, after the copying is completed, the user copy information is automatically stored, the information list mark appears, and the corresponding information is stored and displayed in the information list at the lower left corner, as the mark of the black hollow circle at the lower left corner in fig. 2d, which is convenient for the user to check the copied information.

In the process of building the information list, there is processing logic as shown in fig. 2 n.

When no information is stored in the information list, namely the added information is the first information at the moment, the information list at the lower left corner only displays the current copied content as shown in FIG. 2e, and prompts a user that the storage is successfully completed;

when partial information exists in the information list but the list is not full, only displaying the content of the previous copy information and the current information in the information list as shown in FIG. 2f, and prompting a user of the current storage state;

when the number of the full information in the information list is larger than the preset maximum storage number N, displaying all the stored information as shown in FIG. 2g, and manually clicking the information to be replaced by a user according to personal needs as shown in FIG. 2h to complete the copy storage of the current information.

Step 204, judging whether the checking and copying operation of the current associated program 11 is finished; if the copy is complete, go to step 205; otherwise step 203 is repeated.

Step 205, further judging whether the construction of the information list is completed; if so, go to step 206; otherwise, step 202 is executed to re-select a related new application, such as the program 11 in fig. 2i, and perform the selection and copy of information again.

And step 206, clicking a black button at the upper right corner of the floating window, and closing the display of the floating window.

Step 207, clicking a button of the information list at the lower left corner, popping up all the information such as the editing support item in fig. 2k, clicking a target position (namely an area to be edited) in the main window, and then clicking the corresponding information in the information list to finish the information copying and pasting at the corresponding position.

In addition, by adopting a classification method based on a decision tree, all contents of the information list can be classified and grouped and displayed according to the display contents of the main interface, for example, the information list of the accounting application can be classified autonomously according to the income-expense-transfer items of the main page, so that the subsequent pasting and recording of a user are facilitated, for example, the entries in fig. 2k respectively correspond to the expense (first three items) -income (middle three items) -transfer (last three items) of the main interface.

The main window can be freely switched at different positions, one is switched to the income item shown in figure 2l, the sequence of the income item entries (three items in the middle) in the information list is increased, the income item entries are automatically replaced to the forefront for display, and the user can conveniently edit at one time. The second is to switch to the information list associated with a particular item of the first program, such as the entry in FIG. 2m that is strongly associated with a shopping expense, to be displayed in the information list with priority (top three items in the figure).

After the copying is finished, the lower left corner information list button can be clicked to clear and hide the list, and the whole interaction process is finished.

In the embodiment of the invention, a related application selection window is firstly set, an algorithm recommendation form and a user-defined form are supported, a user is helped to quickly open related applications, and the related applications are displayed in a suspension manner in a current editing application interface, so that the user can conveniently and quickly search and copy the related applications; secondly, an information list is added for the user and is used for storing a plurality of pieces of information of the same associated application or different pieces of information of different associated applications, so that the searching and copying experience of the user is greatly improved; finally, free editing of the user on the current application interface and independent classification of the information list are supported, multiple pieces of information can be pasted from the information list at one time, complex application switching and copying and pasting operations are omitted, and convenience of user operation is improved.
