The manner of stopping the display of the control 607 is the same as the manner of stopping the display of the control 409 of the electronic device shown in FIG. 4F to FIG.

It is understandable that it is not limited to the video call scenes or live broadcast scenes mentioned in the foregoing embodiments. In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may also provide enhanced functions in other usage scenarios. The way the electronic device provides enhanced functions in other usage scenarios is similar to the above-mentioned embodiments of Figure 4A-Figure 4H, Figure 5A-Figure 5F, and Figure 6A-Figure 6H. Reference may be made to the relevant descriptions, and no one will be described here. Lift.

The following describes in detail the method for determining the enhanced function provided to the user when the electronic device starts a third-party application in the embodiment of the present application. Here, the enhanced function provided to the user when the electronic device starts the third-party application may refer to the enhanced function that the electronic device can provide to the user to select and enable after the third-party application is started. For example, the embodiment of FIG. 4A-4H, FIG. 5A -The "beauty" function, the "beauty" function, and the "blur" function provided by the electronic device in the embodiment of FIG. 5F, for example the "network acceleration" function and the "coding optimization" provided by the electronic device in the embodiment of FIG. 6A-6H ”Function and “beautiful tone function”.

(1) In the first determination method, the enhanced functions provided by the electronic device to the user include: all enhanced functions of the electronic device.

The enhanced function may be developed by the manufacturer based on the unique hardware and/or software of the electronic device. For example, Huawei (HUAWEI) mobile phone is equipped with a Leica camera, based on the camera mobile phone can provide "large aperture shooting" function, "ultra wide-angle shooting" function, etc. when taking pictures. Another example is the "beauty" function, "beauty" function, and "blur" function provided by mobile phone manufacturers independently developed algorithms for taking pictures; the "anti-shake" function and "ultra wide-angle shooting" function when recording small videos ; "Superresolution imaging" function, "color enhancement" function, etc. when playing video; "Beautiful sound" function when recording music, etc. It can be seen that the enhanced function of the electronic device may include one or more.

Through the first determination method, the electronic device can provide the user with all the enhanced functions of the electronic device when starting each third-party application. The third-party application installed on the electronic device can call the enhanced function of the electronic device, and the user can make full use of the enhanced function provided by the electronic device to improve the user's experience when using the third-party application.

(2) In the second determining method, the enhanced functions provided by the electronic device to the user include: among all the enhanced functions of the electronic device, the enhanced functions that can be used by the third-party application currently activated by the electronic device.

In the second determining manner, the enhanced functions that can be used by the third-party application currently launched by the electronic device may include: enhanced functions corresponding to one or more usage scenarios provided by the third-party application currently launched by the electronic device.

Specifically, generally, the use scenarios provided by third-party applications are not single, and a third-party application can provide multiple use scenarios. Different third-party applications can provide different usage scenarios. Exemplarily, refer to Table 1, which exemplarily lists usage scenarios provided by several third-party applications. As shown in Table 1, the usage scenarios provided by instant messaging third-party applications such as WeChat, Skype, WhatsApp, etc. may include: social communication scenarios (such as text or voice chat), small video recording scenarios, video playback scenarios, and reading News scenes, video playback scenes, audio playback scenes, etc.; third-party shopping applications such as Taobao, Amazon and other applications can provide usage scenarios including shopping scenes, live broadcast scenes, etc.

Table 1 Usage scenarios provided by different third-party applications

It is understandable that, in the embodiments of the present application, the usage scenarios can be classified according to user requirements, or can be classified according to other criteria, such as resources called when the electronic device provides the usage scenario, and this application does not limit this.

In the embodiment of the present application, each enhanced function of the electronic device has a corresponding usage scenario. In general, this enhanced function will only be used in the corresponding use scenario, and will not be used in other use scenarios. In other words, different usage scenarios can correspond to different enhanced functions.

In the embodiment of the present application, enhanced functions corresponding to different usage scenarios may be pre-configured in the electronic device. Exemplarily, refer to Table 1, which exemplarily lists the enhanced functions corresponding to several usage scenarios. As shown in Table 1, the “large aperture” function, “ultra-wide-angle shooting” function, “beauty” function, “beauty” function, etc. are suitable for shooting scenes; “super-resolution imaging” function, “color enhancement” function, etc. are applicable It is suitable for playing video scenes; the "American Sound" function is suitable for recording audio scenes.

Table 2 Enhanced functions corresponding to different usage scenarios

In the second determination method, the enhanced functions that can be used by the third-party application currently launched by the electronic device may include: enhanced functions corresponding to one or more usage scenarios provided by the third-party application currently launched by the electronic device . In some embodiments, the electronic device may match or determine the enhanced functions corresponding to one or more usage scenarios provided by the third-party application when the third-party application is installed. In other embodiments, the electronic device may match or determine the enhanced functions corresponding to one or more usage scenarios provided by the third-party application when the third-party application is started.

For example, referring to Table 2, the usage scenarios provided by WeChat include: social communication scenarios, small video recording scenarios, video playback scenarios, and news reading scenarios. The enhanced functions that WeChat can use may include The enhanced functions corresponding to these usage scenarios may include: "red envelope acceleration" function, "fun chat" function, "large aperture" function, "ultra wide-angle shooting" function, "beauty" function, "slimming" function, "super Resolution imaging" function, "color enhancement" function, "read later" function, "intelligent screen recognition" function, etc.

For another example, the usage scenarios provided by Taobao include shopping scenarios and game scenarios. The enhanced functions that Taobao can use may include: "product historical price display" function, "product quick comparison" function, "network acceleration" function, " Coding optimization" function, "Beautiful Voice" function, etc.

In the second determining method, the electronic device may first determine the currently launched third-party application, then determine the enhanced functions that can be used by the third-party application, and provide the user with the enhanced functions that can be used by the third-party application. The third-party application currently launched by the electronic device may refer to the foreground application of the electronic device, and the foreground application may occupy the screen focus to provide a user with a graphical user interface.

The electronic device can determine the currently launched third-party application in any of the following ways: 1. View the name of the task process at the top of the RunningTask stack, which can be used to indicate the currently launched third-party application. 2. Obtain a list of currently running processes through runningProcess, traverse each process in this list, and determine whether the process is a foreground process. If so, the name of the process can be used to indicate the currently launched third-party application . 3. Obtain the usage status of all applications through the UsageStatsManager to determine the currently launched third-party application.

(3) In the third determination method, the enhanced functions provided by the electronic device to the user include: enhanced functions suitable for the current use scenario.

In some embodiments, the enhanced function applicable to the current usage scenario may be an enhanced function corresponding to the current usage scenario, and reference may be made to Table 2 and related descriptions. For example, if the current use scene is a video call scene, the enhanced functions provided by the electronic device to the user include: "beauty" function, "beauty" function, and "blur" function; if the current use scene is a video playback scene, The enhancement functions provided by the electronic device to the user include: "super-resolution imaging" function and "color enhancement" function. The electronic device can read the resource category occupied by the currently launched third-party application and/or the user interface currently provided by the third-party application in one or more of the kernel layer, the system layer, or the application framework layer, and determine the current usage scenario .

For example, if the hardware resources occupied by the third-party application include a camera and a microphone, it can be determined that the current use scene is a video recording scene; if the third-party application calls the processor (CPU) for video decoding and occupies audio playback Device (such as speaker 170A, etc.), it can be determined that the current use scene is a video playback scene; if a third-party application uses a graphics processing unit (GPU) to perform graphics rendering, combined with the identification of the current interface name (such as the current operation of the electronic device) If the third-party application is "Glory of the King", the electronic device can grab the interface name "com.tencent.tmgp.sgame.SGameActivity" from the background), and then it can be determined that the current use scene is the game scene; if the third-party application calls the process The CPU performs video encoding and decoding, and also calls the camera and microphone, and the wireless communication module or mobile communication module has data transmission (that is, there is data exchange with the network server), combined with the recognized current interface name (such as electronic equipment) The currently running third-party application "WeChat (WeChat)" provides a video call scene, the electronic device can grab the interface name "com.tencent.mm.plugin.voip.ui.VideoActivity") from the background, and then the current The use scene is a video call scene. Here, the current interface refers to a graphical user interface provided by a currently launched third-party application that occupies the screen focus. The way the electronic device recognizes the current interface is similar to the way to determine the currently launched third-party application, and you can refer to related descriptions.

In other embodiments, the enhanced function applicable to the current usage scenario may refer to the enhanced function corresponding to the current usage scenario that is compatible with the capabilities currently provided by the electronic device. Among the enhancement functions corresponding to the current usage scenario, the enhancement functions that are mutually exclusive with the capabilities currently provided by the electronic device are removed, which is the enhancement function suitable for the current usage scenario.

It is understandable that due to resource conflicts or other reasons, some of the functions (including enhanced functions and non-enhanced functions) possessed by electronic devices are mutually exclusive, and electronic devices cannot provide mutually exclusive functions at the same time. For example, electronic devices cannot provide both the enhanced function "skin beautification" function and the non-enhanced function "anti-shake" function, nor the enhanced function "blur" function and the non-enhanced function "high dynamic range imaging" at the same time. Imaging, HDR)” function, and cannot provide both the enhanced function “ultra wide-angle shooting” function and the non-enhanced function “anti-shake” function.

The electronic device can read the resource parameters currently occupied and determine the functions currently provided to the user. The resource parameters currently occupied by the electronic device may include, but are not limited to: camera parameters, codec parameters, display parameters, network parameters, audio parameters, and so on. Among them, camera parameters may include resolution, frame rate, focus mode, and anti-shake mode, coding and decoding parameters may include: bit rate, I frame interval, and display parameters may include resolution, display mode (such as SurfaceView, TextureView), and so on. For example, the electronic device can determine that it has provided a "skin beautification" function or an "anti-shake" function through the read camera parameters (such as resolution and focus parameters).

Through the third determination method, when the electronic device starts the third-party application, it can provide users with different enhanced functions in different usage scenarios provided by the third-party application. In other words, the electronic device can provide users with enhanced functions suitable for current usage scenarios. Users can use different enhanced functions when opening different interfaces of the same third-party application on the electronic device.

In this application, the control used to monitor the operation of enabling the enhanced function may be referred to as an enhanced function option, and the user interface used to display the enhanced function option may be referred to as the first user interface. An exemplary implementation of the first user interface may include the user interface 41 shown in FIG. 4D, the user interface 51 shown in FIG. 5D, or the user interface 61 shown in FIG. 6D. Exemplary implementations of the enhanced function option may include the control 411A, the control 411B, and the control 411C shown in FIG. 4D, or the control 502A, the control 502B, and the control 502C shown in FIG. 5D, or the control 609A, Control 609B, control 609C.
