Detailed Description

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.

Example one

Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart of steps of a method for displaying an APP icon according to a first embodiment of the present invention is shown.

The display method of the APP icon comprises the following steps:

step S102: and classifying APP icons corresponding to the APPs in the mobile terminal according to a preset type.

In the embodiment of the invention, the APP icon is collected according to the preset type and is executed in the background of the mobile terminal, and the classified result is only stored in the background.

Types include, but are not limited to: icon color type, user-defined type, system-defined type, and usage frequency type.

The icon color type classifies the APP icons according to the APP icon colors, and each APP icon is divided into different sets. Specifically, the mobile terminal divides the color domain into a plurality of different color domains, and each color domain corresponds to one set. When the APP icons are classified, the main body color of each APP icon is determined, and the APP icons belonging to the same color domain are divided into the same set.

The user-defined type is a type defined by the user, and APP icons included in the defined type are determined by the user, for example: the user defines a type as My favorite and adds an APP icon that the user likes to under the type.

The system defined types, such as financial type, music type, video type, learning type, etc., are the types indicated in the attributes of the APP, since the APP has been programmed to the same type as it was downloaded from the APP store.

The using frequency type classifies APP icons corresponding to the APPs according to the using frequencies of the APPs, and different APPs are divided into different sets. In a specific implementation process, the use frequency can be divided into a plurality of frequency ranges, each frequency range corresponds to one set, and in a terminal use process, APP icons corresponding to the APP icons are divided into corresponding sets according to the use condition of the APP icons.

The mobile terminal can provide various types of classified services, and the user needs to select one or more types from the types provided by the terminal as preset types. After the preset type is determined, the mobile terminal classifies the APP icon according to the preset type.

Moreover, the user still needs to store a fingerprint for each preset type, and the APP icon under the type corresponding to the fingerprint can be searched through the fingerprint. Of course, a more convenient mode can be set, and a preset fingerprint can search APP icons under each type through the fingerprint.

Step S104: and receiving a trigger operation of a finger on the first APP icon.

The trigger operation may be any suitable operation performed on the first APP icon by a finger, for example: click operation, double click operation, long press operation, etc., which are not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present invention.

Step S106: a first fingerprint of a finger is acquired and a first type matching the first fingerprint is determined.

The mobile terminal stores the corresponding relation between the fingerprint and the type.

After the first fingerprint of the finger is collected, the first type matched with the obtained first fingerprint can be determined according to the corresponding relation between the fingerprint and the type.

It should be noted that, if the first fingerprint corresponds to a certain type, the first type is a type; if the first fingerprint corresponds to a plurality of types, the first type is a plurality of types.

Step S108: and acquiring application icons of other applications except the first application icon in the first type.

For example: and if the first type is an icon color type, acquiring other APP icons which belong to the same set with the first APP icon color. For another example: and when the first type is the type of the using frequency, acquiring other APP icons which belong to the same set with the using frequency of the first APP icon. For another example: when the first type is an icon color type and a use frequency type, other APP icons which belong to the same set with the first APP icon color are obtained, and other APP icons which belong to the same set with the first APP icon use frequency are obtained.

Step S110: other application icons of the first type are displayed around the first application icon.

Preferably, when the other application icons are displayed, a mask with first transparency is added on the currently operated desktop, and the other application icons of the first type are displayed on the mask and around the first application icon.

According to the APP icon display method provided by the embodiment of the invention, different types of APP icons in the mobile terminal are classified according to APP characteristics, corresponding fingerprints are respectively set for the types, and when a user triggers a certain APP icon through a finger, the APP icons in the set to which the APP icon belongs under the type corresponding to the first fingerprint of the finger can be displayed to the user. That is to say, if a user needs to search for a certain APP icon, the user can trigger through a corresponding finger, and the APP icon to be searched and the APP in the same set belong to the same type. Therefore, according to the display method of the APP icon provided by the embodiment of the invention, the user only needs to perform one-time APP icon clicking operation without performing switching preview of the APP icon display interface for multiple times, so that the user operation is facilitated, the operation burden of the user can be reduced, and the user experience is improved.

Example two

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying APP icons according to a second embodiment of the present invention is shown.

The display method of the APP icon provided by the embodiment of the invention specifically comprises the following steps:

step S202: a selection operation for a type is received.

Wherein the type includes at least one of: icon color type, user-defined type, system-defined type, and usage frequency type.

Before the APP icons are classified by the mobile terminal, the user is required to select the type, namely the type is preset, and after the type is preset, the mobile terminal classifies the APP icons in the background.

It should be noted that the user may select only one type, and certainly, may also select multiple types, when the user selects one type, the mobile terminal classifies each APP icon according to one type, and if the user selects multiple types, the mobile terminal needs to classify each APP icon according to each type.

Step S204: and receiving the input operation of the fingerprint corresponding to the type.

After the user sets the types, the user needs to enter the fingerprints corresponding to the types. Therefore, when a user triggers the APP icon through a certain finger, the APP icon can be searched from the type corresponding to the fingerprint of the finger.

The input operation of the fingerprint can be an input operation corresponding to one type of one fingerprint; it is also possible to correspond to a plurality of types of entry operations for one fingerprint. In a specific implementation process, a user may select only one fingerprint corresponding to one type, or only one fingerprint corresponding to multiple types, and of course, may select to perform both an entry operation corresponding to one type for one fingerprint and an entry operation corresponding to multiple types for one fingerprint.

One fingerprint corresponds to one type of fingerprint entry, i.e., different fingerprints are entered for each type. For example: the middle finger fingerprint corresponds to the icon color type, the ring finger fingerprint corresponds to the system definition type, and the small finger fingerprint corresponds to the use frequency type. The definitions of the fingerprints and the types are set by a user according to actual requirements, and the mobile terminal can provide a guide interface to guide the user to input the fingerprints. In specific implementation, a certain type of a fingerprint to be entered can be selected, the mobile terminal displays a fingerprint entry interface aiming at the type, a fingerprint pressing area can be displayed in the interface, and when a user presses the fingerprint pressing area through a finger, the mobile terminal reads the fingerprint and determines the fingerprint as the fingerprint corresponding to the type.

One fingerprint corresponds to one type of fingerprint entry, that is, one fingerprint is entered for all preset types, that is, the entered fingerprint corresponds to a plurality of types.

Step S206: and classifying APP icons corresponding to the APPs in the mobile terminal according to a preset type.

The classification of the icon APP is performed by the mobile terminal in the background. Assuming that the preset type is an icon color type and a use frequency type, classifying the APP icons by the mobile terminal according to the icon color type to obtain a plurality of sets, wherein each set comprises the APP icons belonging to the same color domain; and classifying the APP icons according to the use frequency types by the mobile terminal to obtain a plurality of sets, wherein each set comprises the APP icons belonging to the same use frequency range.

Step S208: and receiving a trigger operation of a finger on the first APP icon.

The trigger operation may be a long-press operation on the first APP icon.

For example: when the user needs to search the APP icons, one icon which is close to the APP icons needing to be searched can be selected from the APP icons displayed in the current interface, then the APP icons are triggered by fingers of fingerprints matched with the icon color types, and the mobile terminal can search the APP icons which have the same color domain as the triggered APP icons.

Step S210: a first fingerprint of a finger is acquired and a first type matching the first fingerprint is determined.

The mobile terminal stores the corresponding relation between the fingerprints and the types, so that after the first fingerprint of the finger is acquired, the first type matched with the acquired first fingerprint can be determined through the corresponding relation between the fingerprints and the types.

The first type may be one type, and of course, if the first fingerprint of the finger corresponds to multiple types, the first fingerprint of the finger matches the multiple types.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the following steps are described with reference to fig. 3 and 4 by taking the type that the first fingerprint of the finger matches the color type of the icon as an example.

Assuming that the fingerprint corresponding to the color type of the icon is a fingerprint of a right middle finger of the user, after the user presses APP icons located in a third row and a third column of the interface through the middle finger length of the right hand in the interface shown in fig. 3, the mobile terminal collects a first fingerprint of the finger pressing the APP icon, and determines that the type corresponding to the first fingerprint is the color type of the icon according to the corresponding relationship between the fingerprint and the type.

Step S212: and acquiring the application icons of other application programs except the first application icon in the first type.

Preferably, the manner of acquiring the application icons of the other applications in the first type except the first application icon is as follows:

s1: determining icon features contained in the first APP icon and matched with the first type;

s2: searching APP icons contained in the set corresponding to the icon features from the first type, wherein the first type comprises at least one set classified according to different icon features.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the determined type is taken as an example of the icon color type, so that after determining the icon color type, the mobile terminal determines the main color of the triggered APP icon, and then determines the color domain corresponding to the main color of the triggered APP icon; after the color domain is determined, searching a set corresponding to the determined color domain from each set corresponding to the icon color type, and finally searching each APP icon contained in the set. The searched APP icon is the icon which belongs to the same color domain and is similar to the triggered APP icon.

Step S214: other application icons of the first type are displayed around the first APP icon.

A preferred way of displaying other application icons of the first type around the first APP icon is as follows:

s1: the position of the first APP icon in the interface is determined.

The determined location is used as a convergence point.

S2: and converging the obtained APP icons according to the color similarity.

Wherein, with the APP icon that first APP icon colour is close more, the display position is close to first APP icon more.

S3: displaying the converged APP icons around the first application icon.

A schematic diagram of a display interface of the searched application program icon is shown in fig. 4. As can be seen from fig. 4, the APP icons (white squares in the figure) searched for are arranged in a set with the APP icons in the third row and the third column of the interface (i.e., the triggered APP icons) as the aggregation point. Through using the convergent point to concentrate the range as the center with each APP that finds, the user one hand of being more convenient for carries out the APP and switches, because the user finger still is in the state of pressing the APP that is triggered at present, if the APP icon that the user needs to switch is close to this point, the user only need remove the finger slightly then can accomplish the APP and switch, the one-hand operation of being convenient for.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the description is given by taking the example that the first fingerprint of the APP icon is triggered to match the color type of the icon, so that when the found APP icons are converged, the APP icons are sorted according to the color similarity. In a specific implementation process, if the first fingerprint triggering the APP icon matches the usage frequency type, the acquired APP icon may be aggregated according to the following priority mode.

When the fingerprint corresponds to the usage frequency type, a preferred way to display other application icons of the first type around the first APP icon is as follows:

s1: the position of the first APP icon in the interface is determined.

The determined location then serves as a point of convergence.

S2: and converging the obtained APP icons according to the using frequency similarity.

The more similar APP icon is used with the first APP icon, the closer the display position is to the first APP icon. This kind of when corresponding use frequency type to the fingerprint, the mode of the APP icon that shows to seek also is convenient for the user one-hand to carry out APP and switches.

Specifically, the mobile terminal may determine the use frequency of the first APP icon and the use frequency of each obtained APP icon. When gathering, can set up the APP icon that frequency of use is close with first APP icon frequency of use in the position that is closest to the point of gathering, then layer-by-layer sets up the APP icon that frequency of use similarity is lower and lower.

S3: displaying the converged application icons around the first application icon.

The above describes the preferred mode of converging APP icons when the first fingerprint corresponds to the icon color type and the preferred mode of converging APP icons when the first fingerprint corresponds to the frequency type, respectively, and the following describes a preferred mode of converging APP icons that is applicable regardless of which specific single type the fingerprint corresponds to.

No matter which specific single type the first fingerprint corresponds to, after determining the corresponding first type according to the first fingerprint, and after acquiring other application icons of the first type, the acquired APP icons can be displayed in the following preferred manner:

s1: determining the position of a first APP icon in an interface;

and the determined position is the convergence point of each icon.

S2: and converging the obtained APP icons according to the use frequency.

Wherein the display position of the APP icon with higher use frequency is closer to the first APP icon.

S3: displaying the converged APP icons around the first application icon.

No matter be the APP icon that is divided according to the icon color, the APP icon that is divided according to the use frequency, the APP icon that is divided according to the system definition type or the APP icon that is divided according to the user-defined type, each APP icon all corresponds to the use frequency, and this use frequency is the use frequency of the APP that the APP icon corresponds to. The use frequency of one APP icon can reflect the APP application degree of a user, and the use frequency is higher when the application degree is higher.

In this preferred implementation, among the APP icon that will find, the APP icon setting that the frequency of use is high is at the position nearest from the convergent point, can guarantee to show among the similar APP, the APP icon that the user degree of utilization is the highest at the position nearest from the convergent point, and the user of being convenient for carries out APP and switches.

Step S216: and receiving the operation of the user on the target APP icon, and starting the APP corresponding to the target APP icon.

The APP icons which belong to the same color domain as the first APP icon are displayed in the interface through the step S214, and if the target APP icon which is searched in advance by the user exists in the display interface, the user can directly start the target APP by directly moving the target APP icon through fingers.

By the method for displaying the APP icons provided by the embodiment of the invention, besides all the beneficial effects of the method shown in the first embodiment, the triggered APP icons are used as the convergence point in the interface, and the searched APP icons are intensively arranged by taking the convergence point as the center, so that the user can conveniently perform one-hand operation, and the user experience can be improved.

EXAMPLE III

Referring to fig. 5, a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying APP icons according to a third embodiment of the present invention is shown.

In the second embodiment, the description is given by taking the example that the finger triggering the APP icon corresponds to one type, and in the embodiment of the present invention, the description is given by taking the example that the finger triggering the APP icon corresponds to multiple types.

step S302: a selection operation for a type is received.

It should be noted that the user may select only one type, or certainly, may select multiple types, when the user selects one type, the mobile terminal classifies each APP icon according to the one type, and if the user selects multiple types, the mobile terminal needs to classify each APP icon according to each type selected by the user.

Step S304: and receiving the input operation of the fingerprint corresponding to the type.

One fingerprint corresponds to one type of fingerprint entry, i.e., different fingerprints are entered for each type.

Step S306: and classifying APP icons corresponding to the APPs in the mobile terminal according to a preset type.

Step S308: and receiving a trigger operation of a finger on the first APP icon.

The trigger operation may be a long-press operation on the first APP icon.

Step S310: a first fingerprint of a finger is acquired and a first type matching the first fingerprint is determined.

In the embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 3 and fig. 6, the first types of fingerprint matching are four types, and the four types are respectively: the following steps are explained by taking an icon color type, a user-defined type, a system definition type and a use frequency type as examples.

Assuming that the corresponding first fingerprints of the multiple types are fingerprints of the right index finger of the user, after the user presses APP icons located in the third row and the third column of the interface with the length of the right index finger in the interface shown in fig. 3, the mobile terminal collects the first fingerprints of the fingers pressing the APP icons, determines that the first type corresponding to the first fingerprint contains the multiple types according to the corresponding relationship between the fingerprints and the types, and can further determine that the first type specifically contains: icon color type, user-defined type, system-defined type, and usage frequency type.

Step S312: and acquiring application icons of other applications except the first application icon in the first type.

Since the types determined in step S310 are multiple, APP icons of different types and belonging to the same set as the first APP icon need to be determined respectively.

Respectively determining APP icon sets which belong to the same color domain as the triggered APP icons under the icon color types; determining an APP icon set which belongs to the same use frequency range as the triggered APP icon under the use frequency type; determining an APP icon set which belongs to the same type as the triggered APP icon in the user-defined type; and determining that the APP icon under the system definition type and the triggered APP icon belong to the same type of APP icon set.

Step S314: a separate display area is allocated for each type.

When independent display areas are allocated for each type, a preferred allocation mode is as shown in fig. 6, where the entire screen display area is divided into four display areas, an intersection point of each display area is a central point of the screen display area, and the central point is also a convergence point of each APP icon to be displayed.

Of course, if the number of types is greater than four, the screen display area is divided into a plurality of fan-shaped display areas by taking the center point of the screen display area as the center of the fan, and each display area is used for displaying an APP icon set corresponding to one type.

And S316, converging the APP icons of the types and the APP icons belonging to the same set as the first application program icons according to each type combination.

Wherein each type includes at least one collection.

Wherein, the aggregation rules of various types may be the same, for example: the APP icons are converged according to the use frequency. Of course, it may be different, and different aggregation rules may be set for different types. The specific setting mode of the aggregation rule may be set by a person skilled in the art according to actual needs, and is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

One preferred aggregation rule setting is as follows:

and aiming at the icon color type, converging the APP icons in the same set with the first APP icon according to the color similarity.

This kind of mode of assembling can guarantee when showing the APP that finds, with the set of colour type, with the APP icon show that the higher APP icon colour similarity is more close position apart from the convergent point, the user preview of being convenient for and APP switches over.

And converging the APP icons which belong to the same set with the first APP icon under the types according to the use frequency aiming at the user-defined type or the system defined type.

This kind of mode of assembling can guarantee when showing the APP that finds, with the set of system definition type, the APP icon that frequency of use is higher shows in the position that is closer to the convergent point, the user preview of being convenient for equally carries out APP and switches over.

And for the type of the using frequency, converging the APP icons which belong to the same set with the first APP icon under the type according to the using frequency similarity.

This kind of mode of assembling can guarantee when showing the APP that finds, will with the frequency type the set in, with the APP icon that first APP icon frequency of use is close more, the display position is close to the convergent point more, the user preview of being convenient for carries out the APP and switches.

Step S318: and displaying the converged application program icons of various types in the corresponding display areas.

Fig. 6 is an interface schematic diagram illustrating that after the obtained APPs of the four types and belonging to the same set as the first APP icon are aggregated respectively by using the preferred aggregation rule shown in step S316, the aggregated application is displayed around the first APP icon. As shown in fig. 6, an area is respectively divided from APP icon sets under the searched icon color type, user-defined type, system-defined type, and usage frequency type in the display interface, and APP icons in each area are arranged in a centralized manner with a central point, i.e., a convergence point, of the screen display area as a center. Displaying APP icons with similar icon colors in an area corresponding to the icon color type; displaying APP icons which belong to the same user-defined type as the triggered APP icons in a display area corresponding to the user-defined type; displaying APP icons which belong to the same system type as the triggered APP icons in a display area corresponding to the system definition type; and displaying APP icons close to the triggered APP use frequency in the display area corresponding to the use frequency type.

Step S320: and receiving the operation of the user on the target APP icon, and starting the APP corresponding to the target APP icon.

Through step S318, the gathered APP icons are displayed around the first application icon, and if the target APP icon that is pre-searched by the user exists in the display interface, the user can directly start the target APP by directly moving to the target APP icon through the finger.

Of course, if the target APP icon which is pre-searched by the user does not exist in the display interface, the user leaves the triggered APP icon with the finger, the mobile terminal receives the operation that the finger leaves the triggered APP icon, and the search result interface is automatically closed. The user can trigger other APP icons by fingers to repeatedly execute the display process of the APP icons of the embodiment of the invention until the target APP icon is found.

By the method for displaying the APP icons provided by the embodiment of the invention, besides all the beneficial effects of the method shown in the first embodiment, the APP icons contained in each found set are arranged in a centralized manner by taking the central point of the screen display area as a convergence point and taking the convergence point as a center, so that the APP switching can be conveniently performed by previewing of a user, and the use experience of the user can be improved.
