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.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a device switching method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and is applied to a bluetooth device, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:

step 101, displaying at least one electronic device identifier under the condition that the first electronic device is connected with the second electronic device.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the first electronic device may be a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone and a tablet, or a fixed terminal such as a computer, a notebook, and a computer, and the second electronic device may be a bluetooth device such as a bluetooth headset and a bluetooth speaker that supports bluetooth transmission, or a wearable device such as a smart band and glasses, or other external devices.

The connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device may be a communication connection established between the first electronic device and the second electronic device through bluetooth or a wireless network.

The at least one electronic device identifier may be an identifier sent by the second electronic device to the first electronic device, or may be an identifier of a nearby electronic device searched by the first electronic device, for example, an identifier of a nearby electronic device searched by bluetooth, where the device identifier may be an identifier of a name, an IP address, and the like of the electronic device.

In this step, under the condition that the first electronic device is connected to the second electronic device, at least one received or searched electronic device identifier may be displayed, so that a user may select a target electronic device to be switched for the second electronic device at the first electronic device side or configure a switching operation mode of an electronic device corresponding to each electronic device identifier.

Optionally, before displaying at least one electronic device identifier, the method further includes:

and receiving historical paired device information sent by the second electronic device, wherein the historical paired device information comprises the at least one electronic device identifier.

That is, in this embodiment, the second electronic device may first send the historical paired device information stored in the second electronic device, such as the name or address of the historical paired device, to the first electronic device, so that the first electronic device may receive the historical paired device information sent by the second electronic device, where the at least one electronic device identifier is an identifier of at least one historical paired device of the second electronic device, such as the name or address of the historical paired device.

The first electronic device may extract at least one electronic device identifier from the received historical paired device information, and display the at least one electronic device identifier on a user interface, so that a user may select the at least one electronic device identifier.

Therefore, the user can switch the connection device according to the historical pairing device information of the second electronic device by receiving the historical pairing device information sent by the second electronic device, and the second electronic device often stores the pairing address information of each historical pairing device, so that the corresponding pairing address can be quickly found according to the device identification, and then the corresponding device can be quickly switched.

Step 102, receiving a first input.

The first input may be a selection operation of a user on at least one electronic device identifier displayed on the first electronic device, for example, each electronic device identifier corresponds to one device option, and the user may select a target device identifier from the at least one electronic device identifier to control the second electronic device to switch to the electronic device connection corresponding to the target device identifier.

The first input may also be that the user performs a switching operation configuration on the electronic device corresponding to each electronic device identifier, that is, selects a switching operation mode for each electronic device identifier, for example, the switching operation of the first electronic device identifier is configured to be pressed for 2s, the switching operation of the second electronic device identifier is configured to be pressed for 3s, the switching operation of the third electronic device identifier is configured to be pressed for 3s, and so on, so that, through the first input, the user may perform a switching operation corresponding to the target electronic device on the second electronic device to achieve switching connection to the target electronic device.

Optionally, the step 102 includes:

receiving a selection input aiming at a target device identification in the at least one electronic device identification, wherein the target device identification is an identification corresponding to the third electronic device.

In this embodiment, the first input may be a selection input for a target device identifier in the at least one electronic device identifier, specifically, when the first electronic device displays the at least one electronic device identifier, a device identifier option may be generated for each electronic device identifier, so that a user may select a device identifier desired to be switched, and after receiving the target device identifier selected by the user, the first electronic device may respond to the selection input of the user, that is, control the second electronic device to switch to an electronic device connection corresponding to the target device identifier.

Further, after receiving a selection input for a target device identification of the at least one electronic device identification, the method further comprises:

and sending the target equipment identification to the second electronic equipment.

That is, after receiving the target device identifier selected by the user, the target device identifier may be returned to the second electronic device, so that the second electronic device determines the corresponding target electronic device according to the received target device identifier, and initiates a connection request to the target electronic device according to the connection address information of the target electronic device, thereby switching to connection with the target electronic device.

For example, as shown in fig. 2, after receiving history paired device information sent by the second electronic device, the first electronic device may display a device selection interface 20, where the device selection interface 20 displays a plurality of device options 21 including names of history paired devices of the second electronic device, and prompts the user to select one device identifier from the device options, the user may click a device option corresponding to any one of the device identifiers, the first electronic device sends a target device identifier corresponding to the device option selected by the user to the second electronic device, and after receiving the target device identifier, the second electronic device may disconnect from the first electronic device and connect to a third electronic device corresponding to the target device identifier.

Therefore, when the connection equipment of the second electronic equipment needs to be switched, the identification corresponding to the target electronic equipment which is expected to be connected is selected on the first electronic equipment, the user does not need to disconnect the original connection equipment, the operation such as connection is clicked on the target electronic equipment, and the method is suitable for the situation that the user quickly completes the switching of the connection equipment of the second electronic equipment through the current handheld equipment.

Step 103, responding to the first input, disconnecting the first electronic device from the second electronic device, and controlling the second electronic device to connect with a third electronic device, where the at least one electronic device identifier includes an identifier corresponding to the third electronic device.

After receiving the first input, in response to the first input, for example when the first input is a device identifier selection input, the target device identifier selected by the first input may be sent to the second electronic device, so as to control the second electronic device to switch to a third electronic device corresponding to the target device identifier and disconnect the first electronic device and the second electronic device; when the first input is a switching operation configuration input, corresponding switching configuration information may be generated and sent to the second electronic device, so that the second electronic device may perform connection device switching according to the switching configuration information, that is, disconnect the connection with the first electronic device, and switch to a corresponding third electronic device according to a switching operation of a user.

In the device switching method in this embodiment, at least one electronic device identifier is displayed when a first electronic device is connected to a second electronic device; receiving a first input; and responding to the first input, disconnecting the first electronic device from the second electronic device, and controlling the second electronic device to be connected with a third electronic device, wherein the at least one electronic device identifier comprises an identifier corresponding to the third electronic device. Like this, when needing to switch the jointing equipment to second electronic equipment, the user only need on first electronic equipment based on the equipment sign that shows, carry out first input can, and need not to carry out series switching operation between a plurality of equipment for the easy operation of switching jointing equipment is convenient, and efficiency is higher.

Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart of another device switching method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and is applied to a first electronic device, as shown in fig. 3, the method includes the following steps:

step 301, displaying a configuration interface, wherein the configuration interface comprises at least one electronic device identifier.

The at least one electronic device identifier may be an identifier sent to the first electronic device by the second electronic device connected to the first electronic device, or an identifier of a nearby electronic device searched by the first electronic device, such as an identifier of a nearby electronic device searched by bluetooth, where the device identifier may be an identifier of a name, an IP address, and the like of the electronic device.

In this embodiment, when the target switching connection device is far from the user location or is not convenient for the user to obtain, in order to reduce the connection operation performed by the user on the device, a device that is convenient for the user to perform a corresponding operation on the first electronic device (the electronic device that the user conveniently operates) and the second electronic device connected to the first electronic device to complete the switching of the connection device of the second electronic device may be designed, specifically, a configuration interface may be displayed on the first electronic device, and the at least one electronic device identifier may be displayed in the configuration interface, and the user may select a corresponding operation item for each electronic device identifier on the configuration interface, that is, configure and switch an operation mode for the electronic device corresponding to each electronic device identifier.

Optionally, before the displaying the configuration interface, the method further includes:

The first electronic device may extract at least one electronic device identifier from the received historical pairing device information, and display the at least one electronic device identifier on the configuration interface, so that a user configures operation items for each electronic device corresponding to the at least one electronic device identifier.

In this way, by receiving the historical paired device information sent by the second electronic device, the user can configure operation items for the historical paired devices of the second electronic device on the first electronic device, so that the user can switch connection devices for the second electronic device according to the configuration information.

Step 302, receiving a second input.

The second input may be an input for selecting a corresponding operation item for each of the at least one electronic device identifier, that is, configuring a corresponding switching operation mode for each electronic device corresponding to each electronic device identifier, that is, the operation item is an operation option corresponding to a certain operation mode. For example, the user may configure, on the configuration interface, the operation item corresponding to the first electronic device identifier as long-press 2s, the operation item corresponding to the second electronic device identifier as long-press 3s, the operation item corresponding to the third electronic device identifier as double-click operation, and so on.

In this way, the user can perform corresponding operations on the second electronic device according to the operation mode indicated by the operation item corresponding to the target electronic device, so as to realize that the second electronic device is switched and connected to the target electronic device.

Step 303, responding to the second input, and establishing an association relationship between each electronic device corresponding to the at least one electronic device identifier and an operation item.

And step 304, sending the association relation to a second electronic device connected with the first electronic device.

After the user configures the corresponding operation item for each electronic device identifier on the configuration interface, an association relationship between each electronic device corresponding to the at least one electronic device identifier and the operation item may be established based on the configured information, and the association relationship may be sent to the second electronic device, so that the second electronic device determines, based on the association relationship, the electronic device corresponding to the switching operation subsequently performed by the user.

Specifically, the user may execute, according to the operation item configured for each electronic device corresponding to the at least one electronic device in the second input, a corresponding switching operation on the second electronic device according to an operation manner indicated by an operation item corresponding to a third electronic device that is expected to be switched and connected, and the second electronic device may determine, according to the electronic device corresponding to each operation item indicated in the association relationship, that the current switching operation corresponds to the third electronic device, and may further switch to connection with the third electronic device.

For example, as shown in fig. 4, after receiving history paired device information sent by the second electronic device, the first electronic device may display a device switching configuration interface 40, where the device switching configuration interface 40 displays a plurality of device options 41 including names of history paired devices of the second electronic device and switching operation mode options 42 of the history paired devices, and prompts a user to configure switching operation modes for the devices, that is, to select different operation items, and the user may select corresponding operation items for the history paired devices through the switching operation mode options 42 corresponding to the history paired devices, where, for example, the operation item configured for the electronic device a is "long press 1 press", the operation item configured for the electronic device B is "long press 2 press", and the operation item configured for the electronic device C is "long press 3 press". After the selection is completed, the user may click the "configure" button 43, and the first electronic device may send the association relationship between each history paired device configured by the user and the corresponding operation item to the second electronic device. In this way, the user can press 1 on the second electronic device for a long time if he/she desires to switch to the electronic device a, 2 on the second electronic device for a long time if he/she desires to switch to the electronic device B, and 3 on the second electronic device for a long time if he/she desires to switch to the electronic device C.

In this way, in this embodiment, when the connection device of the second electronic device needs to be switched, only the operation item corresponding to each electronic device identifier needs to be configured on the first electronic device, and the switching operation corresponding to the electronic device that is expected to be connected needs to be executed on the second electronic device, and operations such as disconnecting the original connection device and clicking connection on the target electronic device by the user are not needed.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a flowchart of another device switching method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and is applied to a second electronic device, as shown in fig. 5, the method includes the following steps:

step 501, sending historical paired device information to a first electronic device, where the historical paired device information includes at least one electronic device identifier, and the at least one electronic device identifier includes an identifier corresponding to a third electronic device.

In this embodiment, in order to facilitate a user to switch a connection device for a second electronic device on a first electronic device, the second electronic device may send historical paired device information to the first electronic device, and specifically, may first obtain historical paired device information stored in the second electronic device, such as a recorded name of a paired device, and then send the historical paired device information to the first electronic device.

After the first electronic device receives the historical paired device information sent by the second electronic device, the historical paired device information, such as an electronic device identifier, may be displayed on a user interface, so that a user may select an identifier corresponding to an electronic device from which the second electronic device is expected to switch connection. For specific implementation, reference may be made to the related description in the implementation shown in fig. 2, and details are not repeated here to avoid repetition.

The history paired device information may include at least one electronic device identifier, where the at least one electronic device identifier includes an identifier corresponding to a third electronic device, so that a user may control the second electronic device to switch to connect with the third electronic device by selecting the identifier corresponding to the third electronic device on the first electronic device.

Optionally, after the step 501, the method further includes:

receiving an identifier corresponding to the third electronic device sent by the first electronic device;

and disconnecting the first electronic equipment and establishing connection with the third electronic equipment.

In this embodiment, after the user selects an identifier corresponding to a third electronic device from the at least one electronic device identifier on the first electronic device, the first electronic device may return the identifier corresponding to the third electronic device selected by the user to the second electronic device, so that the second electronic device may receive the identifier corresponding to the third electronic device sent by the first electronic device, and may find, based on the identifier, connection information, such as a bluetooth address, of the third electronic device corresponding to the identifier from history paired device information, so as to disconnect the connection with the first electronic device, and establish a connection with the third electronic device through the connection information of the third electronic device.

Therefore, the user can directly select the identifier of the electronic equipment which is expected to be connected in a switching mode for the second electronic equipment on the first electronic equipment, so that the connection equipment of the second electronic equipment can be switched without operating among a plurality of pieces of equipment, the equipment switching efficiency and the operation convenience can be improved, and the method is suitable for the situation that the user quickly completes the equipment switching of the second electronic equipment through the current handheld equipment.

It should be noted that, in order to simplify the switching operation of the user, the second electronic device may directly receive a voice switching instruction input by the user to implement switching of the connection device. That is, the device switching method may also include:

receiving a voice switching instruction input by a user, wherein the voice switching instruction comprises identification information of third electronic equipment;

and responding to the voice switching instruction, disconnecting the connection with the first electronic equipment, and establishing connection with the third electronic equipment.

That is, the second electronic device may support a voice recognition function, so as to be able to recognize a voice switching instruction containing device switching information issued by a user, that is, the user may input identification information of a third electronic device that needs to switch a connection by voice, such as a name of the third electronic device, where the third electronic device may be a history pairing device of the second electronic device.

After receiving the voice switching instruction, the second electronic device may respond by recognizing, by voice, the identification information of the third electronic device included therein, that is, disconnect the connection with the first electronic device, and may search, by the identification information of the third electronic device, the connection information of the third electronic device, such as a bluetooth address, and establish a connection with the third electronic device based on the connection information.

Optionally, before receiving the voice switching instruction input by the user, the method further includes:

receiving a preset input for triggering the second electronic device to enter a device switching mode;

responding to the preset input, entering a device switching mode, and starting a voice function;

the receiving of the voice switching instruction input by the user comprises:

and receiving a voice switching instruction which is input by a user and carries an identifier corresponding to the third electronic equipment.

In this embodiment, the second electronic device may support a voice recognition function, and before receiving a voice switching instruction of a user, a preset input of the user may be received first, where the preset input may be a preset input for triggering the second electronic device to enter a device switching mode, and if the preset input is a tap three times on the second electronic device, after receiving the preset input, the second electronic device may enter the device switching mode, and start a voice function to receive and recognize the voice switching instruction input by the user.

The voice switching instruction input by the user may carry an identifier for indicating a connected third electronic device, such as a name of the third electronic device, so that the second electronic device may be switched to be connected with the third electronic device after recognizing the identifier of the third electronic device in the voice switching instruction.

Therefore, the user can directly operate on the second electronic device without relying on other electronic devices, and the switching operation of the connecting device of the second electronic device can be completed.

It should be noted that, in order to ensure the success rate of switching connection, the third electronic device may be a history pairing device of the second electronic device, that is, information, such as a bluetooth address, a name, and the like, of the third electronic device is stored and recorded in the second electronic device, so that according to the third electronic device indicated by the device switching instruction, the second electronic device may be quickly connected to the third electronic device through the recorded information of the third electronic device.

Optionally, the establishing of the connection with the third electronic device includes:

judging whether the third electronic equipment is history pairing equipment or not;

if the third electronic equipment is history pairing equipment, establishing connection with the third electronic equipment, and outputting a first prompt voice under the condition of successful connection to prompt that the connection switching is successful;

after determining whether the third electronic device is a history pairing device, the method further includes:

and if the third electronic equipment is not the history pairing equipment, outputting a second prompt voice to prompt that the third electronic equipment is not the history pairing equipment.

In this manner, after receiving an apparatus switching instruction input by a user, to ensure that apparatus switching is successful, it may be determined whether the third electronic apparatus is a history paired apparatus first, that is, it may be determined whether the third electronic apparatus is a history paired apparatus based on information of the third electronic apparatus and history paired apparatus information indicated by the apparatus switching instruction.

If so, searching connection information of the third electronic equipment, such as a Bluetooth address, from the historical paired equipment information, connecting the third electronic equipment according to the connection information, and outputting a first prompt voice to prompt a user to switch successfully under the condition of successful connection; if not, the second electronic device is difficult to switch to connect with the device, so that a second prompt voice can be output to prompt the user that the third electronic device is not the history pairing device and the information of the device expected to be connected needs to be input again.

Taking a bluetooth headset as an example, when a connection device of the bluetooth headset needs to be switched, the bluetooth headset can be knocked three times in an appointed mode so that the bluetooth headset enters a device switching mode and starts a recording function, and then, a user can input the name of the electronic device needing to be connected by voice, such as inputting a voice message of switching to be connected with the electronic device A; when recognizing the device name in the voice of the user, the Bluetooth headset can firstly judge whether the electronic device A is a historical pairing device, if so, the connection with the original device can be disconnected, the electronic device A is tried to be connected according to the Bluetooth address of the electronic device A, and a voice prompt message of 'successful connection to the electronic device A' can be output under the condition of successful connection, and a voice prompt message of 'failed connection to the electronic device A' can be output under the condition of failed connection; if not, the voice prompt message of 'the electronic device A is not in the history paired device list and please re-input the device name' can be directly output.

Therefore, the user can obtain switching result feedback by judging whether the target electronic equipment is the history pairing equipment or not and outputting different voice prompts according to the judgment result, and the user experience can be further improved.

It should be further noted that the embodiment of the present invention may also be applied to complete the device switching of the second electronic device by the electronic device that does not establish a communication connection with the second electronic device, that is, before the step 501, the method may further include:

under the condition that a fourth electronic device establishes communication connection with the second electronic device, sending historical paired device information to the fourth electronic device based on the established communication connection mode; or

And sending the historical paired device information to the fourth electronic device in a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) broadcasting mode under the condition that the fourth electronic device does not establish communication connection with the second electronic device.

In this embodiment, before the second electronic device transmits the history paired device information, the history paired device information may be transmitted in a different manner according to whether the fourth electronic device establishes a communication connection with the second electronic device.

In one mode, when a fourth electronic device establishes a communication connection with the second electronic device, the second electronic device may send its history paired device information to the fourth electronic device based on the established communication connection, for example, if the fourth electronic device establishes a Serial Port Profile (SPP) connection with the second electronic device, the second electronic device may send the history paired device information to the fourth electronic device based on the established SPP connection; if the fourth electronic device is connected with the second electronic device by a bluetooth Hands-free Profile (HFP), the second electronic device may send the history pairing device information to the fourth electronic device based on the HFP connection.

In another mode, in a case that a fourth electronic device does not establish a communication connection with the second electronic device, the second electronic device may broadcast its historical paired device information using BLE, so that the fourth electronic device located within its broadcast range may receive the historical paired device information broadcast by the bluetooth device.

Therefore, a user can assist in completing the switching of the connection equipment of the second electronic equipment through the electronic equipment currently connected with the second electronic equipment, and the electronic equipment convenient to operate (such as equipment close to the user) can also be adopted to assist in completing the switching of the connection equipment of the second electronic equipment according to an actual scene, so that the equipment switching operation of the user is flexible and can not be limited by the position of the equipment.

It should be noted that, the second electronic device may send the history paired device information to the fourth electronic device based on a trigger operation of a user or a request of the fourth electronic device, so as to enter a device switching process.
