Moreover, any number of elements in the drawings are by way of example and not by way of limitation, and any nomenclature is used solely for differentiation and not by way of limitation.
The principles and spirit of the present invention are explained in detail below with reference to several representative embodiments of the invention.
Summary of The Invention
The inventor finds that the operation process of a user is long and complicated in the current design of application program switching. Firstly, when entering an application program switching interface, a page needs to be slid from the bottom of a screen, and then the operation is stopped for a period of time, so that a background multi-task management interface can be called, and the operation is complex. Secondly, the process of determining the target application to be switched from the multi-task management interface is complex and low in efficiency. As shown in fig. 1, when entering the switching interface, the background applications may be displayed in an overlapping effect, and a user may only see one or two background applications that are used for the latest time, and may not browse all the background applications at a glance. When a user wants to switch an application program with a short service time, the user needs to continuously slide to find the application program to be switched, and then the user needs to click the application program to complete the switching, so that the efficiency is low.
Therefore, the embodiment of the invention provides an application switching method, an application switching device, a medium and a computing device. Therefore, the operation of the user is simpler when the application program is switched, and the efficiency of the application program switching is improved; in addition, the requirement on the learning ability of the user is reduced, great convenience is brought to the user, and the user experience is improved.
Having described the general principles of the invention, various non-limiting embodiments of the invention are described in detail below.
Application scene overview
It should be noted that the following application scenarios are merely illustrated to facilitate understanding of the spirit and principles of the present invention, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited in this respect. Rather, embodiments of the present invention may be applied to any scenario where applicable.
Scene one: when a user uses a certain application program on the intelligent device, the icons of the background application programs displayed in the preset area can be triggered through the touch gesture, the icons are released after the user fingers slide to the certain icon, the application programs corresponding to the icons can be directly switched, the operation is simple, and the user experience is good.
Scene two: when a user enters a home page of the intelligent device, icons of the background application programs can be displayed in a preset area through touch gestures, and then after a certain icon is selected through finger sliding, the corresponding application program is directly opened.
Exemplary method
An application switching method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to fig. 2 to 5 in conjunction with the above application scenarios.
First, fig. 2 shows a flowchart of an application switching method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 2, the application switching method may include steps S210, S220, and S230. Wherein:
step S210, responding to a first touch operation, and displaying an icon of an application program running in a background in a preset area;
step S220, in response to a second touch operation, detecting a change in a position of a touch point corresponding to the second touch operation;
step S230, determining a target icon corresponding to the touch point position when the second touch operation is finished based on the change of the touch point position, so as to switch and display an application program interface corresponding to the target icon.
In the application switching method shown in fig. 2, an icon of an application running in a background is displayed in a preset area in response to a first touch operation, then a change of a touch point position corresponding to a second touch operation is detected in response to the second touch operation, and finally a target icon corresponding to the touch point position when the second touch operation is finished is determined based on the change of the touch point position, so as to switch and display an application interface corresponding to the target icon. On one hand, the icons of the application programs running in the background are displayed in the preset area, compared with the thumbnail pages of the application programs displayed in a stacked mode, the user can clearly know the applications running in the background without turning pages, and the user can conveniently and directly click the icons of the target application programs, so that the switching of the application programs is completed quickly. On the other hand, the switching of the application can be realized when the finger sliding is finished, the operation is simple, the operation effect can be improved, and better experience is brought to the user.
Implementation details of the various steps shown in fig. 2 are described in more detail below:
in step S210, in response to the first touch operation, an icon of the application running in the background may be displayed in the preset area.
The first touch operation may include various touch gestures, such as a click, a long press, a slide, and so on; other operations, such as pressing, tapping, etc., may also be included, and the exemplary embodiment is not particularly limited in this regard. The terminal device can be triggered to display the icons of the application programs running in the background in the preset area through the first touch operation. Specifically, when a touch gesture is detected in the preset area, it is determined whether the touch gesture is included in the first touch operation, and if so, an icon of the application running in the background is displayed in the preset area. Further, the preset area may include an area in the display screen, such as an upper half of the screen, a lower half of the screen, and the like.
Specifically, the full-screen mobile phone may display a mark at the lowest part of the screen to indicate the position of the preset area, as shown in fig. 3, the position indicated by the mark B may be the preset area. The indication may comprise graphics, text, such as a bar as shown in fig. 3. Furthermore, the identifier may also be embodied in other forms, such as a plurality of bars or dot diagrams, etc. equal to the number of applications running in the background.
Alternatively, the number of applications running in the background may be acquired, and then thumbnail identifiers corresponding to the number may be displayed in a preset area. For example, if there are 5 applications running in the background, 5 short bars or 5 small dots are displayed in the preset area as the abbreviated identifiers. When a touch gesture performed by a user on the abbreviated identifier is detected, the abbreviated identifier can be eliminated, and then an icon of the application program running in the background is displayed in the preset area. The thumbnail mark may include an image obtained by reducing an icon of each application program by a certain ratio, or may be set as needed, for example, an image obtained by creating a name of each application program as the thumbnail mark. The corresponding abbreviated identification is displayed in the preset area according to the application program running in the background, so that a user can know the application program running in the background more clearly, the user can switch the application program or clear the application program running in the background conveniently, and memory occupation is reduced.
In some embodiments, icons of the applications running in the background may be displayed in a preset order in the preset area. For example, the icons may be arranged in the starting time sequence of each application running in the background, and arranged from left to right or from right to left in the starting time sequence; or the application programs may be arranged in sequence from left to right or from right to left according to the frequency of the user using each application program.
In addition, when the icon of the application program running in the background is displayed in the preset area in response to the first touch operation, the identifier for the preset area may be eliminated first, and then the icon of the application program running in the background is displayed in the preset area. The icons of the application programs are displayed in the preset area, so that a user can conveniently and directly determine the icons of the target application programs, the switching of the application programs is further completed, the operation is simple, the operation time can be shortened, and the operation efficiency is improved.
In some embodiments, the running application, which may be a foreground running application, remains running until the user needs to switch the application. When the user switches the application program through the first touch operation trigger, the application program running in the foreground is also switched to run in the background, so that the application program running in the foreground can be marked when the icon of the application program is displayed in the preset area. For example, the application icon may be marked "current" or may be caused to appear differently, e.g., differently colored, differently sized, etc., than other icons.
For example, as shown in fig. 4, the area shown in B1 is a preset area, and when the user performs a first touch operation on a plurality of short bars shown in B1, the area shown in a1, that is, the other areas in the screen except for B1, is an interface for displaying the current application. The user may make a long press at B1 and then icons for the applications running in the background will be displayed at the area shown by B1.
In step S220, in response to the second touch operation, a change of a position of a touch point corresponding to the second touch operation may be detected.
In an exemplary embodiment, the second touch operation may be a left-right sliding operation. When the user finger slides left and right at the preset area, the corresponding touch point moves left and right on the icon of the application program. Optionally, the icon corresponding to the touch point position may be displayed in a form different from other icons, for example, highlighted, a frame is added to the icon corresponding to the touch point position, and the like, so that the user can intuitively know which icon corresponds to the touch point, and the user can operate the touch screen conveniently.
Further, when the position of the touch point changes, an icon corresponding to the position of the touch point may be determined, and the icon may be used as the first icon. And displaying an interface of the application program corresponding to the first icon in a preview area. Specifically, in order to enable a user to more intuitively know the application programs running in the background, a preview area may be provided, and the interface of the application program corresponding to the icon corresponding to the current touch point position is displayed in the preview area, so that the user can preview each application program running in the background in the preview area. The preview area may include a middle area of the display screen, and may also include other areas, such as an upper area and a middle area, etc. The preview area may be larger than the preset area.
For example, as shown in fig. 5, when the finger of the user slides left and right at B2, a corresponding display effect may be added at the touch point position, and the display effect of the icon corresponding to the touch point is an overlay of the icon and the display effect at the touch point position. In addition, an application interface corresponding to the icon corresponding to the touch point position is displayed in preview area a 2. When the position of the touch point changes, the icon corresponding to the position of the touch point changes, and the interface displayed in the a2 area is correspondingly switched to the interface of the application program corresponding to the icon corresponding to the position of the touch point.
In step S230, based on the change of the touch point position, a target icon corresponding to the touch point position when the second touch operation is ended can be determined, and the application interface corresponding to the target icon can be switched and displayed.
In this example embodiment, the second touch operation may be a sliding operation, and when the sliding operation is finished, an icon corresponding to a touch point position corresponding to the finishing time may be a target icon. And if the target icon can be an icon of an application program which the user wants to switch, switching the application program to foreground operation, namely displaying an interface of the application program in the display screen. Or, when the user slides left and right in the preset area, the application program interface displayed in the preview area may also be changed, and when the application program interface in the preview area is an interface of some application program, the sliding operation of the user is finished, and the touch point disappears, the interface displayed in the preview area may be enlarged to the display interface when the application program normally runs.
In an alternative embodiment, the first icon corresponding to the touch point position may be displayed in a form different from other icons. If the first icon is displayed in a form different from other icons for longer than a predetermined time, the first icon can be determined as a target icon, that is, the application program corresponding to the first icon is switched to foreground operation. Or if the time displayed in the preview area of a certain application program interface exceeds the preset time, switching the application program to foreground operation.
For example, a plurality of short bars may be displayed in the preset area, and a user may enter an interface for switching the application program by pressing the position of the short bar for a long time, at which time the plurality of short bars disappear, and the preset area displays an icon of the application program running in the background. The long press operation may then be changed directly to a slide operation. When the user slides left and right in the preset area, the application program interface corresponding to the icon corresponding to the touch point position can be displayed in the preview area. When the user stops sliding the finger to leave the screen, the touch point will disappear, and at the moment, the icon corresponding to the touch point position is recorded as the target icon. When the second touch operation is finished, namely after the touch point disappears, the application program corresponding to the target icon is switched to the foreground for running, namely, the interface of the application program corresponding to the target icon is switched and displayed.
It is understood that the first touch operation and the second touch operation may be continuous operations, that is, the user's finger does not leave the screen from the beginning of the first touch operation to the end of the second touch operation. For example, when a user presses an icon of an application program running in the background in a triggering mode, the long-pressing gesture can be directly changed into a sliding gesture, then when the finger of the user leaves the screen, the target icon is determined, and an application program interface corresponding to the target icon is switched and displayed. For the user, the operation is simpler by switching the application program in the mode, and no interval exists in the middle, so that the operation time can be reduced, and the switching efficiency of the application program is improved.
For example, when the user performs the second touch operation, icons of the application programs running in the background in the preset area may be displayed in various effects. If the number of the application programs running in the background is large, icons of the application programs cannot be all displayed in the preset area, icon rolling display can be set. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
if the user slides to the right to the edge of the screen, the icons of the applications running in the background may scroll to the left. Or when the first touch operation is responded, the icons of the application programs running in the background are displayed in a rolling mode in the preset area. The speed of scrolling can be set according to actual needs. At this time, the user may select the icon displayed in the preset area, and the user may also wait for a certain icon to scroll to the touch point position without sliding, and may switch to the application program corresponding to the icon by releasing the hand when the user places the finger on the preset area of the screen. Of course, the icons of the applications running in the background may also be displayed in a scrolling manner in other manners, for example, the applications running in the background are displayed in batches, and the icons of a batch of applications are displayed in a switching manner every preset time period.
