The following describes a software environment to which the application program downloading classification method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is applied, by taking an android operating system as an example.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an architecture of a possible android operating system according to an embodiment of the present invention. In fig. 1, the architecture of the android operating system includes 4 layers, which are respectively: an application layer, an application framework layer, a system runtime layer, and a kernel layer (specifically, a Linux kernel layer).

The application program layer comprises various application programs (including system application programs and third-party application programs) in an android operating system.

The application framework layer is a framework of the application, and a developer can develop some applications based on the application framework layer under the condition of complying with the development principle of the framework of the application.

The system runtime layer includes libraries (also called system libraries) and android operating system runtime environments. The library mainly provides various resources required by the android operating system. The android operating system running environment is used for providing a software environment for the android operating system.

The kernel layer is an operating system layer of an android operating system and belongs to the bottommost layer of an android operating system software layer. The kernel layer provides kernel system services and hardware-related drivers for the android operating system based on the Linux kernel.

Taking an android operating system as an example, in the embodiment of the present invention, a developer may develop a software program for implementing the method for classifying application program downloads provided in the embodiment of the present invention based on the system architecture of the android operating system shown in fig. 1, so that the method for classifying application program downloads may be run based on the android operating system shown in fig. 1. Namely, the processor or the terminal device can implement the application program download classification method provided by the embodiment of the invention by running the software program in the android operating system.

The terminal equipment in the embodiment of the invention can be a mobile terminal or a non-mobile terminal. For example, the mobile terminal may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palm top computer, a vehicle-mounted terminal, a wearable device, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook or a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), and the like, and the non-mobile terminal may be a Personal Computer (PC), a Television (TV), a teller machine, a self-service machine, and the like, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited in particular.

The following takes a terminal device as an example to exemplarily describe the application download classification method provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the invention, when a user needs to classify a certain application program (that is, the application icon corresponding to the application program needs to be classified and displayed in a certain folder), the user can trigger the terminal device to classify the application program while triggering the downloading and the installation of the application program, so that after the terminal device downloads and installs the application program, the terminal device can directly display the application icon corresponding to the application program in the folder, and thus the classification of the application program is realized. Specifically, when a user needs to trigger the terminal device to download an application program (hereinafter referred to as application B) and needs to classify and display an application icon corresponding to the application B in a target folder, firstly, the user can trigger the terminal device to display a target identifier through a first input aiming at the target folder, secondly, the user can trigger the terminal device to display an application program downloading interface through a second input aiming at the target identifier, and then, the user can trigger the terminal device to download and install the application B through the application program downloading interface; so that the terminal device can directly display the application icon corresponding to the application B in the target folder. Therefore, the application program downloading and classifying method provided by the embodiment of the invention can finish the classification of the application program when the application program is downloaded and installed, and does not need to trigger the classification of the application program for many times by a user after the application program is downloaded and installed, so that the process of classifying the application program by the user is simplified, and the human-computer interaction performance is improved.

The following describes an exemplary method for classifying application downloads according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings.

As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides an application download classification method, which may include S201 to S206 described below.

S201, the terminal equipment receives a first input of a user aiming at a target folder.

The first input may be an input of a user to an expansion interface of the target folder (for example, the first interface described below), or an input of a user to an icon of the target folder (for convenience of description, hereinafter, referred to as a target folder icon), which may be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

For the description of the expansion interface of the target folder, reference may be made to the related description of the expansion interface of the folder in the noun explanation section in the foregoing embodiment, which is not described herein again.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first input may be a click input, a long-press input, a heavy-press input, or any other possible form of input, which may be determined specifically according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

The click input may be input of a single click, a double click or a continuous click for a preset number of times. The long press input may be an input contacting for a preset time. The above-mentioned heavy-pressing input is also referred to as a pressure touch input, and refers to an input in which a user presses a pressure value greater than or equal to a pressure threshold value.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the preset times, the preset time, and the pressure threshold may be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

When the first input is input to the target folder icon by the user, the first input may be a long press input or a heavy press input. When the first input is input to the first interface by the user, the first input may be specifically click input, long-press input, or re-press input. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the first input is an input of a user to an expansion interface of a target folder, the step S201 may be specifically implemented by the step S201a described below.

S201a, the terminal device receives a first input of a user on the first interface.

The first interface is an expansion interface of the target folder, and the first interface can comprise a first adding control and at least two application icons.

The application program installed in the terminal device may be all application programs installed in the terminal device, or may also be part of the application programs installed in the terminal device, and may be determined specifically according to actual use requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

For example, assuming that the application installed in the terminal device is a part of the application installed in the terminal device, the part of the application may be an application installed within a preset time period.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the application programs installed in the terminal device may include a system application program and a non-system application program. The system application program can exist as a part of the implementation of the terminal device, namely the system application program can exist as the basic function of the implementation of the terminal device; such as "settings", "browser", etc. The non-system application program can be used as terminal equipment to realize additional functions; such as a travel-type application, a shopping-type application, etc.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the target folder may be any folder in a desktop of the terminal device. That is, the target folder icon may be an icon of any folder displayed on the desktop of the terminal device. In another possible implementation manner, the first input may specifically be an input of a target folder icon by a user.

S202, the terminal equipment responds to the first input and displays the target identification.

The target identifier may be used to indicate an application download entry.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the application download portal may be at least one of an application store and an application download website. Specifically, when the application program download portal is an application store or an application program download website, the target identifier may be an identifier. When the application program download entry is an application store and an application program download website, the target identifier may be one identifier or two identifiers (one identifier indicates the application store and one identifier indicates the application program download website).

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the target identifier may be any identifier that can be linked to an application store or an application program download website. Illustratively, when the application download portal is an application store, the target identifier may be any identifier that can be linked to the application store, such as an icon of the application store, a name of the application store, and the like. When the application download portal is an application download website, the target identifier may be any identifier that can be linked to the application download website, for example, a website link, a website name, and the like, and may be determined according to actual usage requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, in an implementation manner of the foregoing possible implementation manner (that is, the first input is specifically an input of the first add control by the user), the step S202 may be specifically implemented by the step S202a described below.

S202a, the terminal device responds to the first input, and displays a second interface, wherein the second interface comprises the target identification and an application icon corresponding to the application program installed in the terminal device.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the second interface may be an installed application list interface in the terminal device. It can be understood that the installed application list interface may include the target identifier and a part of the applications installed in the terminal device (specifically, application icons corresponding to the applications).

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the target identifier may be displayed after all application icons in the installed application list interface, that is, the target identifier may be displayed on a first empty icon position from front to back in the installed application list interface, or may be displayed before all application icons in the installed application list interface, that is, the target identifier may be displayed on a first icon position from front to back in the installed application list interface, which may be determined specifically according to actual usage requirements, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3 (a), the user may click the first add control 30, that is, the terminal device receives the first input of the user, so that the terminal device responds to the first input, as shown in fig. 3 (b), the terminal device may display the installed application list interface 32 and display the target identifier 33 on the first empty icon position after the application icon corresponding to "shopping 2".

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, in another possible implementation manner described above (that is, the first input is an input to the first application icon), the step S202 may be specifically implemented by the step S202b described below.

S202b, the terminal device responds to the first input, and target identification is displayed on each of the at least two application icons respectively.

The at least two application icons are all application icons included in the target folder.

It is to be understood that the first application icon targeted by the first input may be any one of the at least two application icons, that is, the at least two application icons include the first application icon.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 5 (a), the user may click on the application icon corresponding to "shopping 3", that is, the terminal device receives a first input from the user, so that, in response to the first input, the terminal device may display a target identifier 52 on each application icon in the expansion interface of the common folder, as shown in fig. 5 (b).

In this embodiment of the present invention, the user may input a target identifier (i.e., a second input described below) displayed on any one of the at least two application icons (e.g., the first application icon) to trigger the terminal device to display the application download interface.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, in another possible implementation manner (that is, the first input is specifically an input of the target folder icon by the user), the step S202 may be specifically implemented by the step S202c described below.

S202c, the terminal device displays the target identifier on the target folder icon in response to the first input.

In the embodiment of the present invention, when the user performs the first input on the target folder icon, the terminal device may display at least the target identifier on the target folder icon.

Of course, in practical implementation, when the user performs the first input on the target folder icon, the terminal device may also display the target identifier on other folder icons on the desktop of the terminal device. Namely, the user can trigger the terminal device to display the target identifier on all the folder icons on the desktop of the terminal device by inputting any folder icon on the desktop of the terminal device.

S203, the terminal equipment receives a second input of the user aiming at the target identification.

The second input may be input by the user on the target identifier, or may also be input by the user on the target identifier, which may be determined specifically according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present invention, in one possible implementation manner, the second input may specifically be an input of a target identifier displayed on the second interface by a user. In another possible implementation manner, the second input may specifically be an input of a target identifier displayed on the second application icon by a user; the second application icon may be any one of the at least two application icons (i.e., all application icons included in the target folder). In another possible implementation manner, the second input may specifically be an input of a target identifier displayed on a target folder icon by a user.

For example, in one possible implementation manner, as shown in (b) in fig. 3, the user may click the target identifier 33, that is, the terminal device receives the second input from the user, so that the terminal device may display the application download interface 34 in response to the second input, as shown in (a) in fig. 4.

As another example, in another possible implementation manner, as shown in (b) in fig. 5, the user may click on the target identifier 52 displayed on the application icon 53 (i.e., the second application icon) corresponding to the "game", that is, the terminal device receives the second input of the user, so that the terminal device may display the application download interface 54 in response to the second input, as shown in (a) in fig. 6.

As another example, in the above-mentioned another possible implementation manner, as shown in (b) of fig. 7, the user may click on the target identifier 72 displayed on the common folder icon 71, that is, the terminal device receives the second input of the user, so that the terminal device may display the application download interface 73 in response to the second input, as shown in (a) of fig. 8.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first application icon and the second application icon may be the same application icon or different application icons, which may be determined specifically according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the second input may be a click input of the user on the target identifier, a long-press input of the user on the target identifier, a re-press input of the user on the target identifier, and other input in any possible form. For a description of the input form of the second input, reference may be specifically made to the description of the first input in S201a in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not repeated here.

And S204, the terminal equipment responds to the second input and displays an application program downloading interface.

The application program downloading interface may be an interface corresponding to the application program downloading inlet. That is, it can be understood that after the user triggers the application download entry, the terminal device may display the application download interface. For example, the application download portal may be an application icon corresponding to an "application store", and the application download interface may be one interface in the "application store" (specifically, an interface in the "application store" where the application can be downloaded).

After the terminal device displays the application program downloading interface, the user can trigger the terminal device to download and install the target application program through input on the application program downloading interface according to actual use requirements (for example, the user needs to download the target application program). In practical implementation, the process of downloading and installing the target application program by the terminal device may be two completely independent processes, or may be an integrated process. For example, the terminal device may download the target application program under the trigger of the user, and install the target application program under the trigger of the user again after the download is completed; or, the terminal device may download the target application program first under the trigger of the user, and directly install the target application program after the download is completed.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the application downloading interface may be used to indicate at least one first application. Specifically, the application download interface may include at least one application entry, and each application entry may include an application icon, and each application icon may be used to indicate a first application.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4 (a), the application download interface indicates five application entries 36, each of which may include an application icon; and the five application icons are sequentially as follows from top to bottom: an application icon corresponding to "video 1", an application icon corresponding to "video 2", an application icon corresponding to "video 3", an application icon corresponding to "video 4", and an application icon corresponding to "video 5".

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the target identifier targeted by the second input (that is, the target identifier displayed in the second interface or displayed on the second application icon) is different, and at least one first application indicated by the application download interface may also be different. Specifically, when the second input is input to a target identifier displayed in the second interface or a target identifier displayed on a target folder icon, the at least one first application may be an application described in the following (two). When the second input is input to the target identifier displayed on the second application icon, the at least one first application may be an application described in (a) or (b) below.

The at least one first application may be at least one of the following (1), (2), and (3). That is, the at least one first application may be any one of (1), (2), and (3), or a combination of any two or more thereof.

(1) An application program of the same type as the first application program; (2) the application program is determined according to historical behavior information of the application program downloaded by a user; (3) and the application program is determined according to the historical behavior information of the application program used by the user.

The first application type is an application type of the application program indicated by the second application icon (i.e., the application icon targeted by the user for executing the second input). For example, the first application type may be any possible application type such as a video type, a shopping type, or an address book, and may be determined specifically according to an actual use requirement, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

For example, assuming that the at least one first application is the application described in (1) above and the first application type is a video class, the at least one first application is a video class application.

Further exemplarily, assuming that the at least one first application is the application described in (2) above, and the historical behavior information of the application downloaded by the user is the historical download amount of the application within the preset time period, the at least one first application is all the applications whose download amount within the preset time period is greater than a first threshold (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention). Optionally, the historical download amount may be historical download amount of the application program by most users collected by a server of the terminal device, or may also be historical download amount of the application program by the user collected by the terminal device, which may be determined according to actual use requirements.

Further exemplarily, assuming that the at least one first application is the application described in (3) above, and the historical behavior information of the user using the application is the historical usage frequency of the application within a preset time period, the at least one first application is all the applications whose usage frequency within the preset time period is greater than a second threshold (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention). Optionally, the historical usage frequency may be historical usage frequency of the application program collected by the server of the terminal device by most users, or may also be historical usage frequency of the application program collected by the terminal device by the user thereof, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

(ii) the at least one first application may be at least one of the following (4), (5), and (6). That is, the at least one first application may be any one of (4), (5), and (6), or a combination of any two or more thereof.

(4) An application program of the same type as the second application; (5) the application program is determined according to historical behavior information of the application program downloaded by a user; (6) and the application program is determined according to the historical behavior information of the application program used by the user.

And the second application type is the application type of the application program indicated by all the application icons in the target folder. For example, the second application type may include at least one application type such as a video type, a shopping type, an address book, and the like, and may be determined according to an actual use requirement, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

For example, assuming that the at least one first application is the application described in (4) above and the second application type is a video type application and a shopping type application, the at least one first application is a video type application and a shopping type application.

Further exemplarily, assuming that the at least one first application is the application described in (5) above, and the historical behavior information of the application downloaded by the user is the historical download amount of the application in the preset time period, the at least one first application is all the applications whose download amount in the preset time period is greater than a third threshold (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention). For the description of the historical download amount, reference may be specifically made to the description of the historical download amount in the above (a), and details are not repeated here.

Further exemplarily, assuming that the at least one first application is the application described in (6) above, and the historical behavior information of the user using the application is the historical usage frequency of the application within a preset time period, the at least one first application is all applications whose usage frequency within the preset time period is greater than a fourth threshold (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention). For the description of the historical usage frequency, reference may be made to the description of the historical usage frequency in (a) above, and details are not repeated here.

It is to be understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the at least one first application may include a target application, or may not include the target application, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited. When the at least one first application comprises a target application, the user can directly trigger the terminal device to download the target application. When the at least one first application does not include the target application, the user may trigger the terminal device to query the target application, and then trigger the terminal device to download the target application.

And S205, the terminal equipment downloads and installs the target application program through the application program downloading interface.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the terminal device displays the application program downloading interface, a user can trigger the terminal device to download and install the target application program through input on the application program downloading interface.

S206, the terminal device displays the application icon corresponding to the target application program in the target folder.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the terminal device downloads and installs the target application program, the terminal device can display the application icon corresponding to the target application program in the target folder. Therefore, the application icons corresponding to the target application programs can be classified and displayed in the target folder, and the target application programs are classified.

It should be noted that, in an actual implementation, after the user triggers the terminal device to download and install the target application, the terminal device may display an application icon corresponding to the target application in the target folder, and at this time, the application icon may be used to indicate that the target application is in an uninstalled state (for example, the application icon may be displayed in a graying manner). After the terminal device downloads and installs the target application, the application icon may be used to indicate that the target application is in an installation-completed state (e.g., the application icon may be switched from being grayed-out to being highlighted).

Further, in this embodiment of the present invention, after the terminal device executes S206, when the user triggers the terminal device to display the first interface (that is, the expansion interface of the target folder), the terminal device may display the first interface, and display an application icon corresponding to the target application program in the first interface. Therefore, the classification of the target application program can be completed while the target application program is downloaded and installed, and the classification of the target application program does not need to be triggered by a user for multiple times after the target application program is downloaded and installed, so that the process of classifying the target application program by the user is simplified, and the human-computer interaction performance is improved.

In the method for classifying application program downloads provided in the embodiments of the present invention, before a user triggers downloading and installing an application program, the user may select a folder into which the application program is classified (i.e., a folder to which an application icon corresponding to the application program belongs), and trigger the terminal device to enter an application program downloading interface (e.g., an application store) from an entrance of the folder (i.e., the application icon of the folder) through the first input and the second input, so that after the terminal device downloads and installs the application program through the application program downloading interface, the terminal device may directly display the application icon corresponding to the application program in the folder, that is, the application program may be classified while the application program is downloaded and installed.

Optionally, in the method for classifying application program downloads provided in the embodiment of the present invention, in the one possible implementation manner and the another possible implementation manner, when a user needs to download a target application program and needs to classify the target application program into a target folder (specifically, to classify and display an application icon corresponding to the target application program in the target folder), the user may first trigger the terminal device to display an expansion interface of the target folder, that is, the first interface, where the first interface may include the first add control or the first application icon. Therefore, the user can trigger the terminal device to display the target identifier through the first input of the first adding control or the first application icon.

For example, referring to fig. 2, as shown in fig. 9, before the foregoing S201, the method for classifying application downloads according to the embodiment of the present invention may further include the following S207 to S208.

And S207, the terminal equipment receives a third input of the target folder from the user.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the target folder may be a folder displayed on a desktop of the terminal device. Specifically, the target folder may be displayed on a desktop of the terminal device in a folder icon form. The third input may be specifically an input of the folder icon by the user.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the third input may be a click input of the user on the target folder (specifically, the folder icon), a long-press input of the user on the target folder (specifically, the folder icon), or a re-press input of the user on the target folder (specifically, the folder icon). For a description of the input form of the third input, reference may be specifically made to the description of the first input in S201 in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not repeated here.

And S208, the terminal equipment responds to the third input and displays the first interface.

The first interface may be an expansion interface of the target folder. The first interface may include the first add control or the first application icon.

In the embodiment of the present invention, for the description of the expansion interface of the target folder, reference may be made to the related description of the expansion interface of the folder in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not described here again.

It should be noted that, in an embodiment of the present invention, in an actual implementation, because two or more application icons may be merged and displayed in one folder, and a user may also trigger the terminal device to add another application icon in the folder, the first interface may generally include a first addition control (for adding another application icon to the folder) and at least two application icons.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a user may trigger the terminal device to display an expansion interface of the target folder by inputting a third input to the target folder, so that the user may trigger the terminal device to display a target identifier for indicating an application download entry by inputting an object (for example, an add control or an application icon) in the expansion interface, and then the user may trigger the terminal device to display an application download interface by inputting the target identifier, and after the user triggers the terminal device to download and install the target application through the application download interface, the terminal device may display an application icon corresponding to the target application in the target folder. Therefore, the application program downloading and classifying method provided by the embodiment of the invention can finish the classification of the application program when the application program is downloaded and installed, and does not need to trigger the classification of the application program for many times by a user after the application program is downloaded and installed, so that the process of classifying the application program by the user is simplified, and the human-computer interaction performance is improved.

In this embodiment of the present invention, because the objects (i.e., the first add control or the first application icon) targeted by the first input are different, the manners in which the terminal device displays the target identifiers may also be different, and the target identifiers (i.e., the target identifiers displayed in the second interface or the target identifiers displayed on the second application icon) targeted by the second input may also be different, the application download classification method provided in this embodiment of the present invention is further exemplarily described below by using three possible implementation manners (i.e., the first possible implementation manner, the second possible implementation manner, and the third possible implementation manner described below) and by referring to fig. 3 to 8.

In a first possible implementation manner, it is assumed that in the method for classifying application program downloads provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the first interface is an expansion interface of a tool folder, and the expansion interface of the tool folder includes a first adding control; the first input is click input to the first adding control, the terminal device displays a target identifier on a second interface (namely the installed application list interface), and the second input is click input to the target identifier; further, it is assumed that at least one first application indicated by the application download interface is an application determined according to historical behavior information of the user using the application (i.e., (6) in (two) above), the historical behavior information of the user using the application is historical usage frequency of the application within a preset time period, and the application whose usage frequency of the user within the preset time period (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, but is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention) is greater than a fourth threshold (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, but is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention) is "video 1". Then, as shown in (a) in fig. 3, the terminal device displays an expansion interface 30 (i.e., a first interface) of the tool folder, where the first interface includes a first adding control 31, at this time, the user may click the first adding control 31, that is, the terminal device receives a first input of the first adding control by the user, and then, in response to the first input, as shown in (b) in fig. 3, the terminal device may display an installed application list interface 32 (i.e., a second interface), where the installed application list interface 32 includes a target identifier 33 and application icons corresponding to all applications installed in the terminal device. Then, the user may click the target identifier 33, that is, the terminal device receives a second input of the target identifier from the user, and in response to the second input, as shown in (a) in fig. 4, the terminal device may display an application download interface 34, and application icons indicating five video applications are displayed on the application download interface 34, respectively: an application icon corresponding to "video 1", an application icon corresponding to "video 2", an application icon corresponding to "video 3", an application icon corresponding to "video 4", and an application icon corresponding to "video 5". Further, as shown in fig. 4 (a), assuming that the target application program that the user needs to download is "video 3", the user may click on the installation control corresponding to the application icon corresponding to "video 3" to trigger the terminal device to download and install "video 3", and after the terminal device downloads and installs "video 3", the terminal device may display the application icon corresponding to "video 3" in the tool folder (i.e., the target folder). Further, when the user triggers the terminal device to display the expansion interface 30 (i.e., the first interface) of the tool folder, as shown in fig. 4 (b), the terminal device may display an application icon 35 corresponding to "video 3" in the expansion interface 30 of the tool folder.

In a second possible implementation manner, it is assumed that in the method for classifying downloading application programs provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the first interface is an expansion interface of a common folder, and the expansion interface of the common folder includes four application icons, which are an application icon corresponding to "communication", "an application icon corresponding to video", "an application icon corresponding to game", and an application icon corresponding to "shopping 3", respectively; the first input is a long-press input to an application icon corresponding to "shopping 3" (i.e. a first application icon), and the terminal device respectively displays a target identifier on each of the four application icons, and the second input is a click input to a target identifier displayed on an application icon corresponding to "game" (i.e. a second application icon); further, it is assumed that at least one first application indicated by the application download interface is an application of the same type as the first application (i.e., the application type of the application indicated by the second application icon), the application type of the application indicated by the second application icon is a game class, and the at least one first application is five game class applications, where the application icons corresponding to the five game class applications are: an application icon for "game 1", an application icon for "game 2", an application icon for "game 3", an application icon for "game 4", and an application icon for "game". Then, as shown in (a) in fig. 5, the terminal device displays an expansion interface 50 (i.e., the first interface) of the common folder, where the expansion interface 50 includes an application icon corresponding to "communication," "an application icon corresponding to" video, "" an application icon corresponding to "game," and an application icon corresponding to "shopping 3," and at this time, the user may long-press an application icon 51 (i.e., the first application icon) corresponding to "shopping 3," that is, the terminal device receives a first input of the first application icon from the user, and then the terminal device responds to the first input, and as shown in (b) in fig. 5, the terminal device may display a target identifier 52 on each of the four application icons. Then, as shown in (b) in fig. 5, the user may click on the target identifier 52 displayed on the application icon 53 corresponding to the "game" (i.e., the second application icon), that is, the terminal device receives a second input of the target identifier from the user, and then, in response to the second input, as shown in (a) in fig. 6, the terminal device may display an application download interface 54, and the application icons corresponding to the five game class applications are displayed on the application download interface 54 (i.e., the application download interface 54 indicates five game class applications); the application icons corresponding to the five game application programs are respectively as follows: an application icon corresponding to "game 1", an application icon corresponding to "game 2", an application icon corresponding to "game 3", an application icon corresponding to "game 4", and an application icon corresponding to "game 5". Further, as shown in fig. 6 (a), assuming that the target application program that the user needs to download is "game 1", the user may click an installation control corresponding to the application icon corresponding to "game 1" to trigger the terminal device to download and install "game 1", and after the terminal device downloads and installs "game 1", the terminal device may display the application icon corresponding to "game 1" in a common folder (i.e., the above-mentioned target folder). Further, when the user triggers the terminal device to display the expansion interface of the common folder, as shown in (b) of fig. 6, the terminal device may display an application icon 55 corresponding to "game 1" in the expansion interface 50 (i.e., the first interface) of the common folder.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 5 (a), after the user presses the application icon 51 corresponding to "shopping 3" for a long time, as shown in fig. 5 (b), all icons in the common folder may be in an editable state. In this editable state, typically, the user may trigger the terminal device to move the application icon or uninstall the application indicated by the application icon. Specifically, the user may drag the application icon to trigger the terminal device to move the application icon. Alternatively, the user may trigger the terminal device to uninstall the application indicated by the application icon by clicking a delete control (56 shown in fig. 5 (b)) on the application icon. In the embodiment of the present invention, the user may also trigger the terminal device to enter the application download portal (for example, the target identifier 52 shown in (b) in fig. 5 may be input to trigger the terminal device to enter the application download portal), so as to download the target application, thereby classifying the downloaded target application into the common folder.

In a third possible implementation manner, it is assumed that in the method for classifying downloading application programs provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the target folder is a common folder, and the common folder includes an application icon corresponding to "communication", "application icon corresponding to" game ", and an application icon corresponding to" shopping 3 "; the first input is long-press input of a common folder icon, and the second input is long-press input of a target identifier displayed on the common folder icon; further, it is assumed that at least one first application indicated by the application download interface is an application determined according to historical behavior information of the application downloaded by the user (i.e., (5) in (two) above), the historical behavior information of the application downloaded by the user is a historical download amount of the application within a preset time period, and an application whose download amount within the preset time period by the user is greater than a third threshold (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, but is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention) is "music 1". Then, as shown in (a) in fig. 7, a common folder icon 71, a tool folder icon, an application icon corresponding to "dial", an application icon corresponding to "contact", and an application icon corresponding to "short message" are displayed on the desktop of the terminal device, at this time, the user presses the common folder icon 71 for a long time, that is, the terminal device receives a first input to the common folder icon 71 from the user, and then the terminal device responds to the first input, as shown in (b) in fig. 7, and displays the target identifier on the common folder 71. The user may click on the target identifier 72 displayed on the common folder 71, that is, the terminal device receives a second input to the target identifier from the user, and then, in response to the second input, as shown in fig. 8 (a), the terminal device may display an application download interface 73, where application icons indicating five music class applications are displayed on the application download interface 73, and are respectively: an application icon corresponding to "music 1", an application icon corresponding to "music 2", an application icon corresponding to "music 3", an application icon corresponding to "music 4", and an application icon corresponding to "music 5". Further, as shown in fig. 8 (a), assuming that the target application program that the user needs to download is "music 3", the user may click the installation control corresponding to the application icon corresponding to "music 3" to trigger the terminal device to download and install "music 3", and after the terminal device downloads and installs "music 3", the terminal device may display the application icon corresponding to "music 3" in a common folder (i.e., a target folder). In this way, when the user triggers the terminal device to display the expansion interface (i.e., the first interface) of the common folder, as shown in (b) of fig. 8, the terminal device may display an application icon corresponding to "music 3" in the expansion interface 74 of the common folder.

In the method for classifying application program downloads provided by the embodiments of the present invention, before a user triggers downloading and installing a target application program, the user may trigger the terminal device to select an application program that is displayed in the desktop of the terminal device and needs to be classified into the target application program through the first input and the second input, and enter an application program downloading interface (e.g., an application program downloading website) from an entrance of the application program (i.e., an icon corresponding to the application program), so after the terminal device downloads and installs the target application program through the application program downloading interface, the terminal device may directly display the icon corresponding to the application program and the classified icon corresponding to the target application program in a new folder, and thus, since the method for classifying application program downloads and installs an application program, the classification of the application program can be completed at the same time, the application program does not need to be classified through multiple times of triggering by the user after the application program is downloaded and installed, so that the process of classifying the application program by the user is simplified, and the man-machine interaction performance is improved.

The following further exemplarily describes the application download classification method provided by the embodiment of the present method with reference to fig. 11 and fig. 12.

In an exemplary method for classifying program downloads provided by this embodiment of the present invention, it is assumed that the first input is a long press input of a user on a first icon (i.e., icons displayed on any interface of a desktop of a terminal device and located outside a folder), and the terminal device displays a target identifier on each second icon (i.e., all icons displayed on the desktop of the terminal device), and the second input is a click input of a user on a third icon (i.e., any one icon of the at least one second icon), and it is further assumed that at least one first application indicated by the application download interface is an application determined according to historical behavior information of the application downloaded by the user, and the historical behavior information of the application used by the user is a historical download amount within a preset time period (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, which is not limited by this embodiment of the present invention), and if the application programs downloaded by the user in the preset time period and having the download amount larger than the sixth threshold (which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, but is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention) are "game 1" and "music 1", the at least one first application program may be five application programs, and the icons corresponding to the five application programs are: an icon corresponding to "game 1", an icon corresponding to "game 2", an icon corresponding to "game 3", an icon corresponding to "music 1", and an icon corresponding to "music 2". Then, as shown in (a) of fig. 11, the terminal device displays an interface where an icon 90 corresponding to "chat" (i.e. the first icon) in the desktop is located, where the interface includes seven icons, that is, an icon corresponding to "chat", "shopping 1", "video", "shopping 2", "dialing", "contact", and "short message", and the user presses the icon 90 corresponding to "chat", that is, the terminal device receives a first input of the first icon, and as shown in (b) of fig. 11, the terminal device may display a target identifier 91 on each of the seven icons (i.e. the second icon displayed on the interface where the first icon is located), and display an icon corresponding to "chat", "shopping 1", and the icon corresponding to "chat", "shopping 1", respectively, A deletion control 92 is respectively displayed on the icon corresponding to the video and the icon corresponding to the shopping 2; assuming that the user clicks the target identifier 91 displayed on the icon 93 (i.e. the third icon) corresponding to "shopping 2", that is, the terminal device receives the second input of the target identifier displayed on the third icon from the user, as shown in (a) in fig. 12, the terminal device may display an application download interface 94, and the terminal device displays icons corresponding to three game class applications on the application download interface 94, respectively: an icon corresponding to "game 1", an icon corresponding to "game 2", an icon corresponding to "game 3", and two music-like applications, which are: an icon corresponding to "music 1" and an icon corresponding to "music 2". Further, as shown in (a) in fig. 12, assuming that the target application program that the user needs to download is "music 2", the user may click on the installation control corresponding to the icon corresponding to "music 2", trigger the terminal device to download and install "music 2", after the terminal device downloads and installs "music 2", as shown in (b) in fig. 12, the terminal device may create a new folder (i.e., folder 1 shown in (b) in fig. 12) on the interface where the icon corresponding to "shopping 2" is located, and display the icon corresponding to "shopping 2" (i.e., the third icon) and the icon corresponding to "music 2" in the folder 95 (i.e., the target folder) in a categorized manner.

The application program downloading and classifying method provided by the embodiment of the invention can be applied to scenes for classifying application programs. Specifically, the method may be applied to a scene (i.e., the scene one) in which the user needs to classify and display the application icon corresponding to the certain application program in the certain folder, or may be applied to a scene (i.e., the scene two) in which the user needs to classify and display the application icon corresponding to the certain application program and the icon that is displayed on the desktop of the terminal device and is located outside the folder in the certain folder. Therefore, in both the first scenario and the second scenario, the application program can be classified while downloading and installing an application program, and the application program does not need to be classified by triggering the user for multiple times after the application program is downloaded and installed, so that the process of classifying the application program by the user is simplified, and the human-computer interaction performance is improved.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the application program download classification methods shown in the above method drawings are all exemplarily described with reference to one drawing in the embodiment of the present invention.
