The method may comprise the steps of:
101: a portion of the display unit that is curved with respect to a reference plane is detected.
The reference surface is a surface parallel to the display unit when the display unit is not bent.
When the display unit is not bent, the display unit is a plane, and the plane or any plane parallel to other planes can be used as a reference plane.
Once the display unit is bent, the bent portion can be determined by comparing it with a reference surface.
102: determining a first display area corresponding to a bent portion of the display unit.
103: and acquiring the application program currently operated by the electronic equipment.
104: and displaying the identifier of the currently running application program in the first display area.
The display unit corresponds to a display area, and according to the bent part of the display unit, the bent part can be determined to correspond to the first display area.
According to the embodiment of the application, the identifier of the currently running application program is displayed by utilizing the first display area.
The identifier of the application is used to uniquely identify the application, and by triggering the identifier of the application, the content of the application indexed by the identifier of the application can be output on the display unit. An application has an identification.
Displaying the identifier of the currently running application program in the first display area can facilitate a user to view the currently running application program, and can perform corresponding operations, for example, by triggering the identifier of one of the application programs, the currently displayed content can be switched to the content of the application program, and the like.
In the prior art, the display of the identifier of the currently running application program needs to be realized by executing specific operation aiming at a specific control key, and the identifier of the currently running application program can only be displayed at a fixed position, so that the operation is inconvenient, and the personal habits and personalized requirements of users cannot be met.
In the embodiment of the application, by utilizing the characteristic that the display unit can be bent, when a user needs to display the identifier of the current application program, the display unit can be bent, a certain area of the display unit is triggered to be bent, and the user can also bend the part, which accords with the display habit, in the display unit according to the display habit, so that the identifier of the application program can be displayed in the first display area, and the first display area is convenient for the user to operate or watch and accords with the display area of the display habit of the user.

The steps 301 to 304 can be referred to in the steps 101 to 104, and are not described herein again.
305: detecting whether the bending degree of the part of the display unit, which is bent relative to the reference surface, is changed, and if so, executing step 306.
306: and when the bending degree variable quantity is larger than a preset value, controlling the currently running application program to stop running.
After the identifier of the currently running application program is displayed in the first display area, the currently running application program can be triggered to terminate running, so that the memory of the electronic device is saved.
The user may trigger the currently running application to terminate running by changing the degree of curvature of the display unit.
In order to improve the operation accuracy and avoid misoperation, the bending degree of the bent part of the display unit relative to the reference surface can be detected, and if the variation of the bending program is larger than a preset value, the currently running application program can be controlled to stop running.
As other possible implementations:
when the display unit is detected to be switched from a bending state of bending relative to the reference surface to a parallel state of being parallel to the reference surface, the currently running application program can be controlled to terminate running.

Of course, it is also possible to control the currently running application to terminate the running when it is detected that the display unit is switched from a bent state in which the display unit is bent with respect to the reference surface to a parallel state in which the display unit is parallel to the reference surface.
Or,
when the display unit is detected to be switched from the bending state to the parallel state and then switched from the parallel state to the bending state, the currently running application program can be controlled to stop running.

Only when the electronic device is in the second operating mode, the bending of the display unit can be detected, and corresponding operations can be performed,
therefore, when the electronic device needs to be operated by bending the display unit, the electronic device can be triggered to be switched to the second working mode, and only in the second working mode, if the bending of the display unit relative to the reference surface is detected, the identifier of the currently running application program is displayed in the first display area corresponding to the bent part.
Wherein whether to switch the electronic device to the second operating mode may be determined by detecting whether there is an input operation satisfying a second predetermined condition.
And when the input operation meeting a second preset condition is detected, switching the electronic equipment to the second working mode, otherwise, not switching the working mode of the electronic equipment.
The input operation meeting the second predetermined condition may be a trigger operation for a specific control key of the electronic device, or an input operation provided with specific content, such as inputting a specific password.
Of course, when the electronic device is in the second operating mode, the electronic device may be switched from the second operating mode to another operating mode when an input operation satisfying a third predetermined condition is detected.
