Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The program starting method of the embodiment of the invention can be applied to the mobile terminal. The Mobile terminal may be a Mobile phone, a Tablet Personal Computer (Tablet Personal Computer), a Laptop Computer (Laptop Computer), a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a Mobile Internet Device (MID), a Wearable Device (Wearable Device), or the like.

The program starting method of the embodiment of the present invention is explained below.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a program starting method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the program starting method of the present embodiment includes the following steps:

step 101, receiving a first input of selecting N icons by a user.

In this step, the first input is used to select N icons. In practical applications, the first input may be a finger input of a user or a stylus input, which may be determined according to practical requirements, and is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.

In particular implementations, the first input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of:

sliding operation of a user on N icons of the M icons displayed on the current interface;

clicking on N icons of the M icons displayed on the current interface by a user;

the user presses on N icons of M icons displayed on the current interface for a long time;

the user performs the pressing operation on N icons of the M icons displayed on the current interface;

dragging operation of a user on N icons of M icons displayed on a current interface; and so on.

Wherein N is an integer greater than 1 and M is an integer greater than or equal to N.

The method aims to reduce the occurrence of the situation that the mobile terminal sequentially starts N application programs due to misoperation of a user. Optionally, the mobile terminal may be provided with a multi-application start mode.

In the application scene, the mobile terminal can respond to a first input after receiving the first input of selecting N icons by a user and sequentially start N application programs corresponding to the N icons based on the first input only after entering a multi-application program starting mode; otherwise, the mobile terminal may not perform any operation. Therefore, the condition that the mobile terminal sequentially starts the N application programs due to misoperation of the user can be reduced, and the power consumption of the mobile terminal can be further reduced.

In this application scenario, optionally, before receiving a first input that a user selects N icons, the method further includes:

receiving a fourth input from the user;

in response to the fourth input, entering a multi-application launch mode.

Further, the receiving of the fourth input of the user may specifically be as follows: and receiving a fourth input of the user on the system desktop of the mobile terminal.

In particular implementations, the fourth input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of:

controlling the overturning input of the mobile terminal;

touch input on a function key of the mobile terminal;

instructing the mobile terminal to enter a voice input of a multi-application startup mode; and so on.

In order to avoid the problem that the touch input in the application scenario is confused with the general touch input and causes a function conflict in the mobile terminal, in an embodiment of the present invention, in order to avoid the problem that the mobile terminal calls out a function conflict due to the fact that the fourth input is included in the scenario of the touch input on the function key of the mobile terminal, at least one of the touch parameters of the touch input for triggering the mobile terminal to enter the multi-application startup mode, such as the touch times of a touch object (e.g., a Home function key, a return function key, a menu function key, or the like), and the touch modes (e.g., clicking, sliding, long pressing, or re-pressing, or the like), is different. Therefore, after the mobile terminal receives the fourth input, the mobile terminal can accurately respond to the fourth input and enter a multi-application program starting mode, so that the accuracy of the mobile terminal in responding to the input of the user is improved, and the response speed of the mobile terminal is further improved.

And 102, responding to the first input, and sequentially starting N application programs corresponding to the N icons based on the first input.

In this step, the sequence of the mobile terminal starting the N application programs may be determined based on the first input.

For example, the mobile terminal may select the sequence of the N icons based on the first input, and sequentially start the N application programs corresponding to the N icons, but the mobile terminal is not limited thereto.

For convenience of understanding, assuming that the first input successively selects an icon corresponding to a music application program, an icon corresponding to a short message application program, an icon corresponding to a reading application program and an icon corresponding to a game application program of the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal may sequentially start the music application program, the short message application program, the reading application program and the game application program.

In the prior art, if a user wants to start a music application program, a short message application program, a reading application program and a game application program of a mobile terminal in sequence, after the mobile terminal is controlled to open the music application program, the mobile terminal needs to be controlled to return to a system desktop, and an icon corresponding to the short message application program is touched, so that the short message application program is opened; after the mobile terminal is controlled to open the short message application program, the mobile terminal needs to be controlled to return to a system desktop, and an icon corresponding to the reading application program is touched, so that the reading application program is opened; after the mobile terminal is controlled to open the reading application program, the mobile terminal needs to be controlled to return to a system desktop, and an icon corresponding to the game application program is touched, so that the game application program is opened.

Therefore, different from the prior art, if the mobile terminal wants to start an application, the touch input of the user for the icon corresponding to the application must be received before the application is started, so that the user needs to frequently control the mobile terminal to return to the system interface to touch the icon of the application.

The program starting method of the embodiment receives a first input of selecting N icons by a user; responding to the first input, and sequentially starting N application programs corresponding to the N icons on the basis of the first input; wherein N is an integer greater than 1. Therefore, the mobile terminal provided by the embodiment of the invention can directly respond to the received first input and sequentially start the N application programs, so that the mobile terminal can be reduced from returning to the system desktop to enable a user to touch the icon corresponding to the application program, the repeated operation of the application program is further started, and the program starting operation is simplified.

In some embodiments of the present invention, in the process of sequentially starting the N applications corresponding to the N icons, the mobile terminal may control the application corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to run in the background under the condition that the application corresponding to the ith icon is in the foreground running state, so as to reduce the waiting time for the application corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to initially start resource loading. The concrete description is as follows.

Optionally, the sequentially starting the N application programs corresponding to the N icons includes:

under the condition that the application program corresponding to the ith icon is in a foreground running state, controlling the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to run in a background;

receiving a second input of the user;

responding to the second input, controlling the application program corresponding to the ith icon to exit foreground operation, and controlling the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to operate in the foreground;

wherein i is a positive integer less than N.

In this embodiment, the mobile terminal controls the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to run in the background when the application program corresponding to the ith icon is in the foreground running state, that is, the mobile terminal can load the resource of the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon while the application program corresponding to the ith icon runs in the foreground.

For example: if the ith icon is an icon corresponding to the music application program and the (i + 1) th icon is an icon corresponding to the short message application program, the mobile terminal can control the short message application program to run in the background under the condition that the music application program is in the foreground running state.

Therefore, after receiving the second input of the user, the mobile terminal can respond to the second input, control the application program corresponding to the ith icon to exit from the foreground for operation, and directly control the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to operate in the foreground, so that the time for the user to wait for the mobile terminal to load the application program resource corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon can be reduced.

And the second input is used for triggering the mobile terminal to control the application program corresponding to the ith icon to exit from the foreground for operation and control the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to operate in the foreground.

In particular implementations, optionally, the second input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of:

triggering the operation of switching from the current interface to the system desktop;

performing first touch operation on the (i + 1) th icon; and so on.

The triggering operation of switching from the current interface to the system desktop may include, but is not limited to: and performing touch operation on a function key (such as a Home function key or a return function key) for controlling the application program corresponding to the ith icon to exit from the foreground operation. In the application scenario, if the user touches the Home function key or returns the function key to trigger switching from the current interface to the system desktop, which indicates that the user has used up the application program corresponding to the ith icon, the mobile terminal may control the application program corresponding to the ith icon to exit from the foreground for operation, and control the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon to operate in the foreground.

It should be noted that, in an application scenario in which the second input includes the first touch operation on the (i + 1) th icon, the current interface of the mobile terminal may simultaneously display a foreground running interface of the application program corresponding to the (i) th icon and the (i + 1) th icon. The first touch operation may include, but is not limited to, a click operation, a long press operation, a re-press operation, and the like.

It should be understood that, in other embodiments, the mobile terminal may not perform any processing on the application program corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon when the application program corresponding to the ith icon is in the foreground operating state, which may be determined specifically according to actual needs, and is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the invention, the mobile terminal sequentially starts the N application programs corresponding to the N icons based on the first input. Therefore, for different expression forms of the first input, the starting processes of the mobile terminal for sequentially starting the N applications corresponding to the N icons may be different. In the following, different expressions of the first input will be described, in which the mobile terminal sequentially starts each scene of N applications corresponding to the N icons.

Scene one

In this scenario, optionally, the first input includes:

a user performs first sliding operation on N icons in M icons displayed on a current interface, wherein the sliding track of the first sliding operation sequentially passes through the N icons;

or,

a user sequentially touches N icons of the M icons displayed on the current interface to perform second touch operation;

wherein the second touch operation includes but is not limited to at least one of a click operation, a long-press operation and a hover touch operation; m is a positive integer greater than or equal to N. The floating touch operation can be understood as a touch operation that is above the screen of the mobile terminal and does not contact the screen.

Further, in this scenario, optionally, the sequentially starting the N application programs corresponding to the N icons based on the first input includes:

under the condition that the first input comprises first sliding operation of a user on N icons in M icons displayed on a current interface, sequentially starting N application programs corresponding to the N icons according to the sequence that a sliding track of the first sliding operation passes through the N icons;

and under the condition that the first input comprises a second touch operation which is sequentially touched by a user on N icons in M icons displayed on the current interface, sequentially starting N application programs corresponding to the N icons according to the sequence of the N icons touched by the second touch operation.

Specifically, in a case where the first input includes a first sliding operation of the user on N icons of the M icons displayed on the current interface, please refer to fig. 2 together for ease of understanding.

In fig. 2, the mobile terminal receives a first sliding operation, and the direction pointed by the arrow on the first sliding trajectory 21 of the first sliding operation identifies the sliding direction of the first sliding operation. As shown in fig. 2, the first sliding track 21 of the first sliding operation sequentially passes through an icon corresponding to a music application program, an icon corresponding to a short message application program, an icon corresponding to a reading application program, and an icon corresponding to a game application program.

In the application scenario, the mobile terminal sequentially starts 4 application programs corresponding to the 4 icons according to the sequence that the first sliding track 21 of the first sliding operation passes through the 4 icons, that is, sequentially starts a music application program, a short message application program, a reading application program and a game application program.

And under the condition that the first input comprises a second touch operation that the user sequentially touches N icons of the M icons displayed on the current interface. For convenience in understanding, assuming that a user sequentially touches an icon corresponding to the music application program, an icon corresponding to the reading application program, and an icon corresponding to the short message application program, in the application scenario, the mobile terminal sequentially starts 3 application programs corresponding to the 3 icons according to the sequence of touching the 3 icons by the second touch operation, that is, sequentially starts the music application program, the reading application program, and the short message application program.

In this way, compared with the mobile terminal that randomly and sequentially starts the N applications corresponding to the N icons, the starting sequence of the N applications can be more suitable for the expectations of the user.

Scene two

In this scenario, optionally, before receiving a first input that a user selects N icons, the method further includes:

displaying a first target control;

the receiving a first input that a user selects the N icons includes:

receiving a first input dragging N icons to the first target control.

For ease of understanding, please refer to fig. 3a and 3b together. In fig. 3a and 3b, the first target control 31 is of the circular ring type. However, it should be understood that the display position, size, and shape of the first target control 31 in fig. 3a and 3b are only examples, and may be set according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present invention does not limit this.

In some embodiments, before displaying the first target control, the method may include:

receiving a fourth input from the user;

the displaying a first target control includes:

in response to the fourth input, displaying a first target control.

And the fourth input is used for triggering the mobile terminal to display the first target control. In particular implementations, the fourth input may include, but is not limited to:

clicking operation of a user in a target area of a display screen of the mobile terminal;

long-time pressing operation of the user in the target area;

sliding input of a user in the target area; and so on.

The target area may be an area of the display screen where no icon is displayed, but is not limited thereto. The first target control may be preset, or may be formed based on the input trajectory of the fourth input, which may be determined according to actual needs, and this is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

In this scenario, a first input is used to drag the N icons to the first target control. Specifically, the first input may drag N icons to the first target control in sequence, or may determine the N selected icons first, and then drag the N icons to the first target control together, but is not limited thereto.

Further, as shown in fig. 3b, after receiving a first input that the user drags the icon corresponding to the music application program, the icon corresponding to the short message application program, the icon corresponding to the microblog application program, and the icon corresponding to the game application program to the first target control 31, the mobile terminal may display the icon corresponding to the music application program, the icon corresponding to the short message application program, the icon corresponding to the microblog application program, and the icon corresponding to the game application program on the first target control 31.

in a first mode, under the condition that the N icons are annularly displayed in the first target control, starting from a preset position of the first target control, and sequentially starting N application programs corresponding to the N icons according to a first preset direction;

or,

and in a second mode, according to the sequence of dragging the N icons to the first target control by the first input, sequentially starting N application programs corresponding to the N icons.

For the first way, please refer to fig. 3b again for the convenience of understanding. In fig. 3b, an icon corresponding to the music application, an icon corresponding to the short message application, an icon corresponding to the microblog application, and an icon corresponding to the game application are displayed in an annular shape in the first target control 31.

Assuming that the preset position is 12 o' clock position, the first preset direction is along the direction of the pointer. The mobile terminal sequentially starts the music application program, the short message application program, the microblog application program and the game application program.

For the second way, for convenience of understanding, it is assumed that, in the 4 icons displayed in the first target control 31 in fig. 3b, the sequence of dragging the 4 icons to the first target control 31 by the first input is an icon corresponding to the short message application, an icon corresponding to the game application, an icon corresponding to the microblog application, and an icon corresponding to the music application. The mobile terminal sequentially starts the short message application program, the game application program, the microblog application program and the music application program.

It should be noted that the filling patterns in fig. 3a and fig. 3b are mainly used to indicate that the mobile terminal can receive the first input of selecting N icons when the display brightness is low, so that the power consumption of the mobile terminal can be reduced.

In the embodiment of the present invention, when the application corresponding to the (i + 1) th icon is started, the mobile terminal may close the application corresponding to the ith icon, that is, control the application corresponding to the ith icon to be neither in a foreground operating state nor in a background operating state, thereby reducing power consumption of the mobile terminal.

However, in some embodiments, the mobile terminal may set some applications to a background resident state, considering that the user desires them to be able to run in the background after exiting the foreground.

Among them, the application program set in the background resident state may be referred to as a background resident application program. In practical applications, the background resident application program is resident in the background memory after being started. Taking the application program corresponding to the ith icon as a background resident application program as an example, when the mobile terminal sequentially starts the application programs corresponding to the icons behind the ith icon, the application programs corresponding to the ith icon are always in a background running state.

The setup procedure is specifically described below.

For a second scenario, optionally, the first input includes a second sliding operation on the first target control with the display position of the first target icon as a starting position;

after receiving a first input that a user selects the N icons, the method further includes:

setting an application program corresponding to a first target icon in the N icons to be in a background resident state;

the sliding track formed by the second sliding operation acting on the first target icon is a preset track, and the sliding direction of the second sliding operation is a second preset direction.

Specifically, the sliding track formed by the second sliding operation acting on the first target icon is a preset track, which can be understood as follows: the sliding track of the first target icon is matched with the shape of the first target control, or a target graph such as a pentagon, a triangle and the like is drawn on the first target icon.

In this embodiment, for ease of understanding, refer to fig. 4. Assuming that the preset trajectory matches the shape of the first target control 31 in fig. 4, the second preset direction is clockwise.

In the application scenario, when the mobile terminal detects a second sliding operation in which the display position of the icon corresponding to the music application is the initial position on the first target control 31 and the second sliding track 41 is matched with the first target control 31, if it is detected that the user drags the icon corresponding to the music application to rotate clockwise for one circle on the first target control 31, the mobile terminal may set the music application to the background resident state.

For the first scenario and the second scenario, optionally, after receiving a first input that a user selects N icons, the method further includes:

and the pressure value of the first input acting on the display position of the first target icon is greater than a preset threshold value.

In this embodiment, the mobile terminal may detect a pressure value applied to the display positions of the N icons by the first input, determine an icon corresponding to the display position where the detected pressure value is greater than a preset threshold value as a first target icon, and further set an application program corresponding to the first target icon in a background resident state. The preset threshold may be set according to actual needs, for example, 10N, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

For convenience of understanding, the first input is taken as an example of a user finger input, and if a user finger acts on a certain icon and presses the icon again, the mobile terminal may set the application program corresponding to the icon to be in a background resident state.

Further, in order to prompt the user of the application program currently set in the background resident state, the mobile terminal may perform visual enhancement display on the icon corresponding to the application program set in the background resident state, where the visual enhancement display may perform special effect display on the icon corresponding to the application program set in the background resident state, so as to achieve an effect of visually enhancing the user, thereby prompting the user that the application program corresponding to the icon is set as the background resident application. Wherein the visual enhancement display may include one or more of: the icon becomes larger, the icon changes color, the icon becomes brighter, the icon flickers, a background resident logo is displayed on the icon, a filled pattern is filled on the icon, the icon is deviated from the original position, and the like, wherein the brightening of the icon can be changed.

Specifically, the background resident mark may be represented by a text, a pattern, or the like. Illustratively, referring again to fig. 2, in fig. 2, the music application is set to the background resident state, and the mobile terminal displays the background resident mark 22 on the icon corresponding to the music application as a closed dotted line enclosing the icon corresponding to the music application.

Referring to fig. 4 again, in fig. 4, the music application is set to be in a background resident state, and the mobile terminal fills a pattern on the icon corresponding to the application.

Therefore, the effect of prompting the user to set the application program in the background resident state can be achieved.

In this embodiment of the present invention, to prompt the user of N application programs to be started, optionally, after receiving a first input that the user selects N icons, the method further includes:

displaying a second target control, wherein the N icons are displayed in the second target control;

receiving a third input of the user on the K icons displayed on the second target control;

responding to the third input, and adjusting the starting sequence of K application programs corresponding to the K icons;

the display sequence of the N icons is matched with the starting sequence of N application programs corresponding to the N icons, a third target icon displayed in the second target control is in a first display mode, all icons except the third target icon in the second target control are in a second display mode, the third target icon is an icon corresponding to the application program currently running in the foreground, and K is an integer smaller than or equal to N.

For ease of understanding, please refer to fig. 5. It should be understood that fig. 5 is the embodiment corresponding to fig. 2, that is, the first input selects 4 icons, namely, an icon corresponding to the music application, an icon corresponding to the short message application, an icon corresponding to the reading application, and an icon corresponding to the game application.

Assuming that the starting sequence of the 4 applications corresponding to the 4 icons is a music application, a short message application, a reading application and a game application in turn, as shown in fig. 5, the icon corresponding to the music application, the icon corresponding to the short message application, the icon corresponding to the reading application and the icon corresponding to the game application are sequentially displayed on the second target control 51 from top to bottom according to the starting sequence of the 4 applications.

In fig. 5, the third target icon appears as a music application.

It should be understood that, in this scenario, the second target control 51 may also be provided with a hidden control 510 for hiding the second target control 51, which is represented as a triangle in fig. 4, so that a user may control the mobile terminal to hide the second target control 51 when touching the hidden control 510, thereby improving the display effect of the current display interface.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the display order of the N icons displayed in the second target control is matched with the starting order of the N applications corresponding to the N icons. Therefore, after receiving the first input and determining the starting sequence of the N application programs based on the first input, the mobile terminal may receive a third input on the K icons displayed on the second target control by the user, and adjust the starting sequence of the K application programs corresponding to the K icons.

In particular implementations, the third input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of:

dragging operation of the user on the K icons displayed on the second target control;

exchanging display positions of the K icons displayed on the second target control by the user; and so on.

For ease of understanding, please refer to fig. 5 and 6 together. Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the second target control 51 before receiving the third input, and fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of the second target control 51 after receiving the third input.

In fig. 5, the display sequence of the icons is the icon corresponding to the music application program, the icon corresponding to the short message application program, the icon corresponding to the reading application program, and the icon corresponding to the game application program, and it can be understood that the start sequence of the application programs corresponding to the icons is the short message application program, the reading application program, and the game application program.

And if the mobile terminal receives a third input for the icon in the second target control 51. As shown in fig. 6, the display order of the icons is changed to: the icon corresponding to the music application program, the icon corresponding to the reading application program, the icon corresponding to the short message application program and the icon corresponding to the game application program. And the mobile terminal adjusts the starting sequence of the application programs corresponding to the icons displayed on the second target control according to the changed icon display sequence, namely the starting sequence of the application programs corresponding to the icons is a reading application program, a short message application program and a game application program.

Through the method, N icons are displayed on the second target control, and a user can be prompted about N application programs to be started in sequence. In addition, the starting sequence of the K application programs corresponding to the K icons in the N icons can be adjusted, so that the starting flexibility of the application programs can be improved.

In addition, optionally, after displaying the second target control, the method may further include:

receiving a first change input of a user for an icon displayed on the second target control;

and responding to the first change input, and adjusting the starting state of the application program corresponding to the icon displayed on the second target control based on the first change input.

The first change input may be used to change the number of icons in the second target control, or be used to change a background resident state of the application program corresponding to a fourth target icon displayed on the second target control.

Specifically, the adjusting the starting state of the application program corresponding to the icon displayed on the second target control based on the first change input may include:

under the condition that the first change input is used for changing the number of icons in the second target control, adjusting the starting sequence of the application program corresponding to the icons displayed on the second target control based on the changed icons;

and under the condition that the first change input is used for changing the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fourth target icon displayed on the second target control, adjusting the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fourth target icon.

For example, in fig. 5 and 6, the fourth change input may be represented by a user's re-pressing operation on the fourth target icon, but is not limited thereto.

When the fourth change input includes a re-press operation of the user on the fourth target icon, the user can change the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fourth target icon in the second target control by re-pressing the fourth target icon.

Specifically, if the application program corresponding to the fourth target icon is set to the background resident state, the mobile terminal may cancel the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fourth target icon; if the application program corresponding to the fourth target icon is not set to the background resident state, the mobile terminal may set the application program corresponding to the fourth target icon to the background resident state.

receiving a second change input of a user for an icon displayed on the first target control;

and responding to the second change input, and updating the starting sequence of the application programs corresponding to the icons displayed on the first target control based on the second change input.

The second change input may be used to change at least one of the number of icons in the first target control, the display order of the icons, and a background resident state of the application corresponding to the fifth target icon displayed on the first target control.

Specifically, the updating the starting sequence of the application program corresponding to the icon displayed on the first target control based on the second change input includes:

under the condition that the second change input is used for changing the display sequence of the icons in the first target control, adjusting the starting sequence of the application program corresponding to the icons displayed on the first target control based on the changed display sequence of the icons;

under the condition that a second change input is used for changing the number of icons in the first target control, adjusting the starting sequence of the application program corresponding to the icons displayed on the first target control based on the changed icons;

and under the condition that the second change input is used for changing the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fifth target icon displayed on the first target control, adjusting the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fifth target icon.

For the second change input to change the number of icons in the first target control, please refer to fig. 3b and fig. 7 together for easy understanding, where fig. 3a is a schematic diagram of the first target control before receiving the second change input, and fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of the first target control after receiving the second change input.

In fig. 3b, starting from the 12 th position, according to the clockwise direction, the display sequence of the icons is the icon corresponding to the music application program, the icon corresponding to the short message application program, the icon corresponding to the microblog application program, and the icon corresponding to the game application program, and it can be understood that the start sequence of the application programs corresponding to the icons is the music application program, the short message application program, the reading application program, and the game application program.

And if the mobile terminal receives a second change input aiming at the icon sequence displayed on the first target control. As shown in fig. 7, if an icon corresponding to the album application is newly added to the icons corresponding to the short message application and the microblog application, the display sequence of the icons is changed to: the icon corresponding to the music application program, the icon corresponding to the short message application program, the icon corresponding to the album application program, the icon corresponding to the microblog application program and the icon corresponding to the game application program. Then, according to the changed icon display sequence, the mobile terminal updates the starting sequence of the application program corresponding to the icon in the first target icon 31 as follows: music application, short message application, photo album application, micro blog application, and game application.

In a case where the second change input is used to change the background resident state of the application corresponding to the fifth target icon displayed on the first target control, for example, in fig. 4, the second change input may be represented by a drag operation of the user on the fifth target icon, and a drag trajectory of the drag operation is a curve.

When the fifth change input represents a dragging operation of the user on the fifth target icon, the user can change the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fifth target icon in the first target control by dragging the fifth target icon.

Specifically, when the dragging direction of the dragging operation is a third preset direction, the mobile terminal may set the application program corresponding to the fifth target icon to a background resident state; when the dragging direction of the dragging operation is a fifth preset direction, the mobile terminal may cancel the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the fifth target icon.

The third preset direction is different from the fifth preset direction, for example, the third preset direction is a clockwise direction, and the fifth preset direction is a counterclockwise direction, but not limited thereto.

Through the mode, the mobile terminal can respond to the received change input and change the starting sequence or the background resident state of the application program corresponding to the icon displayed on the first target control or the second target control, so that the application range and the flexibility of program starting can be improved.
