Detailed Description

In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the present application, reference will now be made to the accompanying drawings in which embodiments of the application are illustrated, it being apparent that the embodiments described are only some, but not all, of the embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, it should be understood that the present application is within the scope of protection.

First, an application scenario for applying a shortcut key is exemplarily described. In the case of starting an application shortcut key switch of a game application program, if a user waits for a plane to take off in the process of playing the game application program and starts a chat application program, the terminal device automatically suspends and displays the application shortcut key related to the game application program on a display interface, key information related to the plane to take off is displayed on the application shortcut key, the user does not need to frequently switch between the two application programs, the key information related to the plane to take off can be quickly obtained by only looking at the application shortcut key on the display interface, and the game application program can be quickly returned by clicking the application shortcut key. It can be seen that when the application shortcut key exits the front end of an application program for the user, the terminal device automatically displays a control related to the application program on the display interface. Wherein the application shortcut may be a customized mode.

For example, as shown in FIG. 1, an application shortcut for a gaming application may be displayed in hover over the chat interface, and key information displayed on the application shortcut includes progress information for aircraft takeoff. In the related art, only one application shortcut key is displayed at the same time, and key information (i.e. "taken off" and "00:45" in fig. 1) expanded by the application shortcut key cannot be packed up, so that information shielding is easily caused to contents on a display interface.

Based on the above problems, the embodiment of the application provides a control method for application shortcut keys, which enables the state of an application shortcut key to be flexibly switched by switching the state of at least one application shortcut key, thereby realizing the form diversity of the application shortcut key.

The control method of the application shortcut key in the present application will be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.

Fig. 2A is a flow chart of a control method using a shortcut key according to an embodiment of the present application. The method may be applied to a terminal device, and the terminal device may include a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (ultra-mobile personal computer, UMPC), a handheld computer, a netbook, a personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant, PDA), a wearable device (such as a wristwatch, a wrist, glasses, a helmet, a headband, etc.), and the specific form of the terminal device is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application.

As shown in fig. 2A, the method may include:

201. a first input is obtained for a first application shortcut on a display interface for a first application.

The first application shortcut key may be a flashback key, which is not limited in the present application. It should be understood that the application shortcut key related in the present application may have a function of rapidly switching between different applications, a function of displaying key information, and the like.

In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the first input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following inputs: touch input, voice input, gesture input and shake input to the terminal device.

It is understood that application shortcuts corresponding to at least one application program respectively may be displayed on the display interface. Wherein the at least one application comprises at least a first application. Exemplary, as shown in fig. 2B and 2C, an interface diagram is shown in which application shortcuts corresponding to five application programs are displayed on a display interface.

In one embodiment, the at least one application may be an application of applications that a user previously initiates an application shortcut switch. For example, as shown in fig. 2D, a switch control corresponding to the application shortcut function and a switch control corresponding to each application program may be provided. Under the condition that the switch control corresponding to the application shortcut key function is started, whether the corresponding application shortcut key function is started or not can be set for each application program, and in fig. 2D, the application shortcut key functions respectively corresponding to the starting APP1, APP2, APP5, APP6 and APP8 are taken as an example for illustration. Under the condition that the switch control corresponding to the application shortcut key is closed, whether the corresponding application shortcut key function is started or not cannot be set for each application program.

The key information displayed on the application shortcut key can be the progress information of the target process in the corresponding application program; the target process may be a preset process or a currently executed process, which is not particularly limited in the present application.

The display screen of the terminal device is provided with an application shortcut key display area in advance. In this way, the terminal device displays application shortcuts respectively corresponding to the at least one application program on the application shortcut display area. The application shortcut key display area may be an area displaying less important information, for example, an edge area on a display screen. The application shortcut key display area shown in fig. 2B is a right edge area corresponding to the terminal device when the terminal device is displayed on the vertical screen, and the application shortcut key display area shown in fig. 2C is a right edge area corresponding to the terminal device when the terminal device is displayed on the horizontal screen. In this way, by displaying the application shortcuts respectively corresponding to at least one application program in the area where important information is less displayed, the shielding of the important information is reduced.

In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the first application may include, but is not limited to, the following:

In the first case, the first application program is an application program in an operation state in a first preset time period, and the termination time of the first preset time period is the same as the current time.

It will be appreciated that the present application does not require the presentation of application shortcuts corresponding to applications that have been used a long time ago (e.g., 1 day, 1 week, etc.), since the user is not concerned about progress. Based on this, the duration of the first preset time period is equal to or less than a preset duration (e.g., 2 hours, one day, etc.).

It should be noted that, in the present application, the running state refers to a state in which the back end of the application program is running.

It should be understood that in the first case, the at least one application program is an application program in an operating state within a first preset period.

In the second case, the first application program is one application program of M application programs which are in a running state and are running recently, and M is a positive integer.

It can be understood that, because the display screen of the terminal device is limited in size, if the number of displayed application shortcut keys is large, the content in the display interface is blocked more, so that the user experience is poor. Based on this, in one implementation, M in the present application may be determined according to the size of the display screen, where the larger the size of the display screen, the larger M; the smaller the size of the display screen, the smaller M. In another implementation, M is a preset value, e.g., M is set to 5.

It should be appreciated that in case two, the at least one application described above may be M applications that are in a running state and have recently been run.

In the third case, the first application program is one application program of N application programs in an operating state, the N application programs are application programs determined according to the display priority of the application shortcut key, and N is a positive integer.

It can be understood that, also considering the problem of limited size of the display screen of the terminal device, if the application shortcut key of more application programs is displayed on the display interface in the case of more application programs for starting the application shortcut key function, more content in the display interface is blocked. Based on this, in the present application, N and the application shortcut key display priority corresponding to each application program are preset, the setting method of N may refer to the setting process of M, and the setting process of the application shortcut key display priority corresponding to each application program may refer to the setting process of the preset sequence of at least one application program in the following manner one, which is not described herein again.

It should be appreciated that in case three, the at least one application described above may be N applications in a running state and with application shortcuts having a top display priority.

In an embodiment of the present application, application shortcuts for at least one application may be displayed on a display interface by, but not limited to:

in the first mode, the terminal device may display application shortcuts related to at least one application program on the display interface in a preset order of the at least one application program. If the preset sequence corresponding to the application program is more forward, the corresponding application shortcut key is more forward on the display interface; if the preset sequence corresponding to the application program is more rearward, the corresponding application shortcut key is more rearward on the display interface.

The preset sequence may be a sequence set in the interface shown in fig. 2D. For example, the preset order of the respective applications may be changed by dragging the program identifications of the respective applications. Starting application shortcut key functions corresponding to APP1, APP2, APP5, APP6, APP8 in fig. 2D, and the sequence corresponding to APP1, APP2, APP5, APP6, APP8 is: APP1, APP2, APP5, APP8, APP6. Thus, in the case where at least one application is APP1, APP2, APP5, APP6, APP8, a schematic diagram of the application shortcut key for the at least one application is displayed on the display interface as shown in fig. 2B.

And in the second mode, the terminal equipment can display application shortcut keys related to at least one application program on the display interface according to the latest front end exit time corresponding to the at least one application program. If the nearest front end exit time corresponding to the application program is closer to the current time, the corresponding application shortcut key is more forward on the display interface; if the nearest front end exit time corresponding to the application program is farther from the current time, the corresponding application shortcut key is more backward on the display interface.

For example, if the latest exit moments corresponding to APP1, APP2, APP5, APP6, APP8 are in order: the sequence of the application shortcut keys corresponding to APP1, APP2, APP5, APP6, APP8 is as shown in fig. 2B, when the current time is 2020, 7 months, 12 days, 18:09, 2020, 18:20, 2020, 18:50, 2020, 19:25, 2020, and 19:05, and the current time is 2020, 21, 19:30: application shortcut key corresponding to APP1, application shortcut key corresponding to APP2, application shortcut key corresponding to APP5, application shortcut key corresponding to APP8, and application shortcut key corresponding to APP 6.

In the third mode, the terminal device may display, on the display interface, an application shortcut key related to at least one application program according to a frequency of use of the at least one application program in a preset history period (for example, in a near hour, a near day, etc.). Alternatively, the termination time of the preset history period may be the same as the current time. If the application program has higher corresponding use frequency, the corresponding application shortcut key is more forward on the display interface; if the application program has lower corresponding use frequency, the corresponding application shortcut key is located on the display interface more backward. Alternatively, the frequency of use may be the number of times the user initiates the front end of the application.

The above-described implementations are merely exemplary and the present application is not limited thereto.

202. Responding to the first input, and acquiring a target state corresponding to the application shortcut key set; wherein the set of application shortcuts comprises at least a first application shortcut.

In an embodiment of the present application, the set of application shortcuts may include all or part of the application shortcuts currently displayed on the display interface. The following is an exemplary illustration:

in the first case, when the number of application shortcuts currently displayed on the display interface is one, the application shortcut key set is a first application shortcut key (i.e., equivalent to all application shortcuts currently displayed).

In the second case, when the number of application shortcuts currently displayed on the display interface is at least two, the application shortcut key set may be a first application shortcut key (i.e., a portion of application shortcuts corresponding to the currently displayed portion); or, all application shortcut keys currently displayed on the display interface can be used; or the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key which are currently displayed on the display interface can be used, and the third application shortcut key is at least one application shortcut key except the first application shortcut key in all the currently displayed application shortcut keys. The third application shortcut key is the same as the current state of the first application shortcut key; or the third application shortcut key is the same as the current state of the first application shortcut key, and is an application shortcut key which is pre-bound to the first application shortcut key and is used for carrying out synchronous state change.

In summary, the application shortcut key set in the present application may include one application shortcut key (i.e., the first application shortcut key), or two application shortcut keys, or a plurality of application shortcut keys.

In one embodiment of the present application, in the case where the first input includes a touch input, the step may include: responding to the first input, and acquiring touch parameters; acquiring a target state corresponding to the application shortcut key set according to the touch parameters; the touch parameters comprise at least one of a touch moving direction, a touch duration, a touch pressure, a touch object, touch times within a preset duration, touch gestures, a touch moving speed, a touch track and a touch target position.

It should be appreciated that the touch object may include a first program identification in the first application shortcut and first key information in the first application shortcut. The first program mark is arranged at one end of the first application shortcut key, the first key information is arranged at the other end of the first application shortcut key, and one end and the other end are in opposite-end relation.

203. And controlling each application shortcut key in the application shortcut key set to be switched from the current state to the target state.

In an alternative embodiment of the application, the target state and the current state are each any of the following: an expanded state and a collapsed state, and the target state and the current state are different; or the current state is a display state, and the target state is a deletion state; or the current state is a state in the current position, and the target state is a state in the target position; alternatively, the target state and the current state are each any one of: an aggregate state and a scatter state, and the target state and the current state are different.

It will be appreciated that the current position and the target position according to the present application may be coordinate positions on the display interface, or may be sorting positions on the display interface, or the like.

For ease of understanding, the following will exemplarily describe the first input as a touch input:

1. the switching between the deployed state and the stowed state will be described:

(1) The number of application shortcut key sets is one, i.e. the application shortcut key set comprises a first application shortcut key

In one embodiment, the terminal device receives a first trigger operation performed on a first program identifier in the first application shortcut key, and controls the first application shortcut key to switch between an expanded state and a collapsed state according to the first trigger operation. If the current state of the first application shortcut key is an unfolding state, the corresponding target state is a folding state; if the current state of the first application shortcut key is a packed state, the corresponding target state is an unfolded state.

For example, the first triggering operation may be a clicking operation performed on the first program identifier, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch times are 1 time.

In another embodiment, the terminal device may receive a second trigger operation performed on the first program identifier in the first application shortcut key, and control the first application shortcut key to switch from the extended state to the retracted state according to the second trigger operation; the terminal equipment can receive a third triggering operation on the first program identifier in the first application shortcut key, and control the first application shortcut key to be switched from the stowed state to the deployed state according to the third triggering operation.

For example, as shown in fig. 2E, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6, the second triggering operation may be a sliding operation from one end where the first program identifier is located to the other end where the first key information is located, and the corresponding touch parameter may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch moving direction is the direction moving from one end where the first program mark is located to the other end where the first key information is located. At this time, the target state of the first application shortcut key corresponding to APP6 is shown in fig. 2F.

As shown in fig. 2F, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6, the third triggering operation may be a sliding operation performed from a position where the first program identifier is located away from a first target display screen edge, where the first target display screen edge is a display screen edge closest to the first program identifier and belongs to the left and right sides, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch moving direction is the direction moving away from the edge of the first target display screen from the position where the first program mark is located. Alternatively, the third triggering operation may be a clicking operation performed on the first program identifier, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch times are 1 time.

In yet another embodiment, the terminal device may receive a fourth triggering operation performed on the first key information in the first application shortcut key, and control the first application shortcut key to switch from the deployed state to the stowed state according to the fourth triggering operation; the terminal device may receive a fifth triggering operation performed on the first program identifier in the first application shortcut key, and control the first application shortcut key to switch from the stowed state to the deployed state according to the fifth triggering operation.

As shown in fig. 2G, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6, the fourth triggering operation may be a sliding operation performed from the other end where the first key information is located toward the one end where the first program identifier is located, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is first key information, and the touch moving direction is the direction of moving from the other end where the first key information is located to the end where the first program mark is located. At this time, the target state of the first application shortcut key corresponding to APP6 is shown in fig. 2H.

The fourth triggering operation may also be a clicking operation performed on the first key information, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is first key information, and the touch times are 1.

As shown in fig. 2I, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6, the fifth triggering operation may be a sliding operation performed from a position where the first program identifier is located away from an edge of a second target display screen, where the edge of the second target display screen is a display screen edge of the first program icon closest to the edge of the display screen and belongs to the left and right sides, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch moving direction is the direction moving away from the edge of the second target display screen from the position where the first program mark is located. At this time, the target state of the first application shortcut key corresponding to APP6 is shown in fig. 2G.

As shown in fig. 2J, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6, the fifth triggering operation may also be a clicking operation performed on the first program identifier, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch times are 1 time. At this time, the target state of the first application shortcut key corresponding to APP6 is shown in fig. 2G.

(2) The number of application shortcut key sets is at least two

If the current states of all application shortcuts currently displayed on the display interface are the same, the state switching can be performed by, but not limited to, the mode:

(a) And the terminal equipment receives a sixth triggering operation on the first program identifier in the first application shortcut key and controls all application shortcut keys to switch between an unfolding state and a folding state according to the sixth triggering operation. If the current states of all application shortcuts are the unfolding states, the corresponding target states are the folding states; if the current states of all application shortcuts are the packed states, the corresponding target states are the unfolded states.

For example, the sixth triggering operation may be a double-click operation performed on the first program identifier, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch times are 2 times.

(b) The terminal equipment receives a seventh triggering operation on the first application shortcut key and controls all application shortcut keys to be switched from an unfolding state to a folding state according to the seventh triggering operation; and the terminal equipment receives an eighth triggering operation on the first program identifier in the first application shortcut key and controls all application shortcut keys to be switched from the stowed state to the deployed state according to the eighth triggering operation.

For example, as shown in fig. 2K, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6 (i.e., an application shortcut key covered by a finger in fig. 2K), the seventh triggering operation may be an operation in which a distance between at least two touch points on the first application shortcut key (two touch points are illustrated in fig. 2K as an example) is gradually reduced, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch trajectory is at least two trajectories that are close to each other. At this time, the target states of all application shortcuts may be as shown in fig. 2L.

The eighth triggering operation may be a re-pressing operation performed on the first program identifier, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is a first program mark, and the touch pressure is greater than a preset pressure value.

(c) The terminal equipment receives a ninth triggering operation on the first key information in the first application shortcut key, and controls all application shortcut keys to be switched from an unfolding state to a folding state according to the ninth triggering operation; and the terminal equipment receives tenth triggering operation on the first program identifier in the first application shortcut key and controls all application shortcut keys to be switched from the stowed state to the deployed state according to the tenth triggering operation.

For example, the ninth triggering operation may be a sliding operation performed on the first key information according to a preset track, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch object is first key information, and the touch track is a preset track. For example, the preset track is a track for the letter "O".

As shown in fig. 2L, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6 (i.e., an application shortcut key covered by a dashed double-finger in fig. 2L), the tenth triggering operation may be an operation in which a distance between at least two touch points on the first program identifier gradually increases, and the corresponding touch parameters may include: the touch track is at least two tracks far away from each other. At this time, the target states of all application shortcuts are as shown in fig. 2K.

If the current states of all application shortcuts currently displayed on the display interface are not identical, triggering operation can be performed on the first application shortcut so as to perform state switching on part of application shortcuts in all application shortcuts, wherein part of application shortcuts can comprise the first application shortcut and the third application shortcut. The triggering operations may refer to the content of the triggering operations in (a), (b) and (c), and will not be described herein.

2. The description is made for switching between the aggregation state and the dispersion state:

in one embodiment, the terminal device may receive an aggregate touch operation performed on the first application shortcut key, and control all application shortcut keys to switch from the fanned state to the aggregate state according to the aggregate touch operation.

For example, the aggregate touch operation may be a long press operation (i.e., a press time period longer than or equal to a preset time period) performed on the first application shortcut key. For example, if the aggregated touch operation is performed on all the application shortcuts shown in any one of fig. 2E to 2L, all the aggregated application shortcuts shown by the dashed lines in fig. 2M or 2N may be obtained.

In another embodiment, the terminal device may first receive a first merging operation performed on the first application shortcut key, and merge the first application shortcut key with the fourth application shortcut key according to the first merging operation to obtain the initial merged application shortcut key. Alternatively, the first application shortcut may be moved to a position where the fourth application shortcut is located to obtain the initial combined application shortcut. And sequentially receiving a second merging operation of the application shortcut keys to be merged, merging the application shortcut keys to be merged into the initial merging application shortcut keys according to the second merging operation to obtain target merging application shortcut keys, so that the application shortcut keys in the target merging application shortcut keys are switched from a scattered state to an aggregation state. The second merging operation may be to move the application shortcut key to be merged to the position where the initial merging application shortcut key is located. And at this time, the third application shortcut key is the application shortcut key except the first application shortcut key in the target merging application shortcut key. It can be seen that the application shortcut keys which are needed to be combined by the user can be combined through the combination process.

In another embodiment, the terminal device receives a removal operation performed on a first application shortcut key included in all the aggregated application shortcuts, and switches the first application shortcut key from an aggregation state to a fanned state according to the removal operation.

Likewise, the terminal device receives a removal operation performed on a first application shortcut included in the target merge application shortcut, and switches the first application shortcut from an aggregation state to a fanned state according to the removal operation.

In another embodiment, the terminal device receives right click operations on all the aggregated application shortcuts, and displays an operation list according to the right click operations, wherein the operation list comprises a cancel aggregation control. In this way, when a click operation to cancel the aggregation control is detected, all the aggregated application shortcuts are controlled to switch from the aggregation state to the dispersion state.

And the terminal equipment receives right click operation on the target merge application shortcut key, and displays an operation list according to the right click operation, wherein the operation list comprises a cancel aggregation control. In this way, in the case of detecting a click operation on the cancel aggregation control, the control target merges the application shortcut key of the application shortcut keys and switches from the aggregation state to the dispersion state.

3. The switching between the display state and the deletion state is described as follows:

In the embodiment of the application, the terminal equipment receives the deleting operation of the first application shortcut key and switches the first application shortcut key from the display state to the deleting state according to the deleting operation.

As shown in fig. 2O, the first application shortcut key is an application shortcut key corresponding to APP6, and the deleting operation may be an operation of dragging the first application shortcut key to the recovery control. And the terminal equipment displays the recovery control when detecting that any application shortcut key is moved.

As shown in fig. 2P, each application shortcut has a corresponding deletion control, so the deletion operation may be a click operation performed on the deletion control of the first application shortcut. Alternatively, in the case that the designating operation on the first application shortcut key is detected, the deletion control is displayed, and the designating operation may be an operation of drawing the letter "C" on the first application shortcut key, or the like.

(2) The number of application shortcut key sets is at least two

In one embodiment, after acquiring all the aggregated application shortcuts, the terminal device receives a deletion operation performed on all the aggregated application shortcuts, and switches all the application shortcuts from the display state to the deletion state according to the deletion operation. As illustrated by way of example in fig. 2M and 2N.

In another embodiment, after the above-mentioned target merge application shortcut is obtained, the terminal device receives a deletion operation performed on the target merge application shortcut, and switches the application shortcut in the target merge application shortcut from the display state to the deletion state according to the deletion operation. Therefore, the application shortcut keys which need to be deleted together can be determined according to the requirements of the user.

4. The explanation is made for switching between the state at the current position and the state at the target position:

In the embodiment of the application, the current position and the target position can be the coordinate positions on the display interface, so that the first application shortcut key can be moved in position, and the first application shortcut key is prevented from shielding the content on the display interface. For example, since the information displayed at the edge position on the display screen is typically information of low user attention, the first application shortcut key may be moved to the edge position on the display screen.

(2) The number of application shortcut key sets is at least two

In the first case, the current position and the target position are both coordinate positions on the display interface.

In one embodiment, if multiple application shortcuts are distributed in different areas of the display, it may result in inconvenient viewing, such as requiring a first application shortcut to be viewed in the upper area of the display, a second application shortcut to be viewed in the lower area of the display, and so on.

Based on the above, after the aggregated all application shortcuts are obtained, the terminal equipment receives the position moving operation of the aggregated all application shortcuts, and moves the all application shortcuts from the current position to the target position according to the position moving operation, so that the distribution of all application shortcuts is concentrated.

In another embodiment, after the above-mentioned target merge application shortcut is obtained, the terminal device receives a position movement operation performed on the target merge application shortcut, and moves the application shortcut in the target merge application shortcut from the current position to the target position according to the position movement operation, so that the position movement can be performed on a plurality of application shortcuts simultaneously, and the operation is simplified.

In the second case, the current position and the target position are both ordered positions on the display interface.

In one embodiment, when a sort movement operation performed on the first application shortcut key is detected, and a target touch position corresponding to the sort movement operation is a position where the third application shortcut key is located. One way is: if the initial display interface is shown in fig. 2E, as shown in fig. 2Q, switching the ordering positions of the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key, and the display interface after switching is shown in fig. 2R; another way is: sequentially moving the application shortcut keys after the third application shortcut key is sequenced backwards by one sequencing position, moving the third application shortcut key backwards by one sequencing position, and setting the first application shortcut key at the sequencing position where the third application shortcut key is initially located. The specific operations in the above touch input are merely exemplary, and the present application is not limited thereto.

If the voice input is "please convert the first application shortcut key into the stowage state", the terminal device controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the deployment state to the stowage state; if the voice input is 'please switch the first application shortcut key to the unfolding state', the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the folding state to the unfolding state; if the voice input is 'please convert the first application shortcut key into the deletion state', the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the display state to the deletion state; if the voice input comprises ' please move the first application shortcut key to the first direction ', stop ' and the like, and the final stop position corresponding to the voice input is the target position, the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to move from the current position to the target position; if the voice input is 'please convert the first application shortcut key into a dispersed state', the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the aggregation state to the dispersed state; if the voice input is "please aggregate the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key", the terminal device controls the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key to be in an aggregate state. The above-described voice inputs are merely exemplary and the present application is not limited in this regard.

If the first input is gesture input, if the gesture input is first gesture, and at the moment, the current state of the first application shortcut key is an unfolding state, the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the unfolding state to a folding state; and if the current state of the first application shortcut key is a stowage state, the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the stowage state to the deployment state. For example, the first gesture may be a combination of a sort gesture and a first specified gesture. For example, if the first application shortcut key is the first application shortcut key to be sequenced, the sequencing gesture may be a gesture of extending one finger; the first specified gesture may be an "ok" gesture.

If the gesture input is the second gesture, at this time, the current state of the first application shortcut key is a display state, and the terminal device controls the first application shortcut key to switch from the display state to the deletion state. For example, the second gesture may be a combination of the sort gesture and the second specified gesture. For example, if the first application shortcut key is the first application shortcut key to be sequenced, the sequencing gesture may be a gesture of extending one finger; the second specified gesture may be a two-finger-to-x gesture.

And if the gesture input is a third gesture, at the moment, the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the current position to the target position. For example, the third gesture may be a combination of a sort gesture and a third specified gesture. For example, if the first application shortcut key is the first application shortcut key to be sequenced, the sequencing gesture may be a gesture of extending one finger; the third specified gesture may be a swipe gesture, such as a swipe left gesture, a swipe up gesture, or the like.

If the gesture input is a fourth gesture, at this time, the terminal device controls the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key to switch from the scattering state to the aggregation state. For example, the fourth gesture may be a combination of the sort gesture and the fourth specified gesture. The sorting gesture can be a gesture corresponding to the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key respectively; the fourth specified gesture may be a fist-making gesture or the like.

If the gesture input is the fifth gesture, at this time, the terminal device controls the aggregated application shortcut (i.e. all the aggregated application shortcuts or the target merge application shortcut) where the first application shortcut is located to switch from the aggregated state to the dispersed state. For example, the fourth gesture may be a pair of other gestures.

It should be noted that, when the terminal device detects the above-mentioned sort gesture, the application shortcut key corresponding to the sort gesture may be set to a designated form, for example, a shake form. Thus, after the user checks that the corresponding application shortcut key is in the specified form, the user performs the corresponding specified gesture. The gesture inputs described above are merely exemplary and the present application is not particularly limited thereto.

If the first input is shake input to the terminal equipment, if the first shake input is detected, at the moment, the current state of the first application shortcut key is an unfolding state, and the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the unfolding state to a folding state; and if the current state of the first application shortcut key is a stowage state, the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the stowage state to the deployment state. For example, the first sloshing input may be a combination of a sort slosh and a first designated slosh. For example, if the first application shortcut is the first application shortcut, the ordering shake may be shake back and forth along the second direction; the first designated shake may be a shake back and forth along the third direction.

If the second shaking input is detected, at this time, the current state of the first application shortcut key is a display state, and the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the display state to the deletion state. For example, the second wobble input may be a combination of a sort wobble and a second designated wobble. For example, if the first application shortcut is the first application shortcut, the ordering shake may be shake back and forth along the second direction; the second designated shake may be a shake of two back and forth along the third direction.

If the third shaking input is detected, at the moment, the terminal equipment controls the first application shortcut key to be switched from the current position to the target position. For example, the third shake input may be a combination of a sort shake and a third specified shake. For example, if the first application shortcut is the first application shortcut, the ordering shake may be shake back and forth along the second direction; the third designated shaking may be shaking in various directions, such as shaking leftwards, shaking upwards, shaking rightwards, shaking downwards, etc.

If the fourth shaking input is detected, at this time, the terminal device controls the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key to switch from the scattering state to the aggregation state. For example, the fourth wobble input may be a combination of a sort wobble and a fourth designated wobble. The ordering shake can be shake corresponding to the first application shortcut key and the third application shortcut key respectively; the fourth designated shake may be a back-and-forth shake three times along the third direction.

If the fifth shaking input is detected, at this time, the terminal device controls the aggregation application shortcut key (i.e. all application shortcut keys after aggregation described above, or the target merge application shortcut key) where the first application shortcut key is located to switch from the aggregation state to the dispersion state. For example, the fifth shake input may be a back shake four times along the third direction.

It should be noted that, when the terminal device detects the above-mentioned ordering shake, the application shortcut key corresponding to the ordering shake may be set to a designated form, for example, a shake form. Thus, after the user checks that the corresponding application shortcut key is in the designated form, the user performs corresponding designated shake. The above-described slosh input is merely an exemplary illustration, and the present application is not particularly limited thereto.

Referring to fig. 2A, as shown in fig. 3, after step 203, the method further includes:

204. and under the condition that the first application shortcut key is in the unfolding state currently and the key information displayed on the first application shortcut key is not changed within the second preset time period, controlling the first application shortcut key to be switched from the unfolding state to the folding state.

It should be noted that the timing of step 204 is not limited in the present application, for example, step 204 may be performed before step 201.

It can be appreciated that, considering the change situation of the key information of the user comparison attention, if the key information is unchanged for a long time, the meaning of the user looking up is not great, so that the key information which is unchanged for a long time has redundant display and can shade the content on the display interface. Based on the above, when the terminal equipment detects that the key information displayed on the first application shortcut key is not changed within the second preset time period, the first application shortcut key is automatically switched to the stowage state. Therefore, the occupied area of the display interface can be reduced while the user is ensured to view the effective information, so that the use experience of the user is improved.

Referring to fig. 3, as shown in fig. 4, after step 204, the method further includes:

205. and under the condition that key information corresponding to the first application shortcut key is changed, controlling the first application shortcut key to be switched from the stowed state to the deployed state.

It can be understood that, considering the change condition of the key information of the user comparison attention, if the key information is changed, and the user does not timely look up the changed key information, the progress of the related event cannot be timely controlled. Based on the above, when the terminal equipment detects that the key information corresponding to the first application shortcut key is changed, the first application shortcut key is automatically switched from the stowed state to the deployed state so as to display the changed key information related to the first application shortcut key. Therefore, the user can be ensured to view the effective information in time, and the use experience of the user is improved.

Typically, the RF circuitry 610 includes, but is not limited to, an antenna, at least one amplifier, a transceiver, a coupler, a low noise amplifier (Low Noise Amplifier, LNA), a duplexer, and the like. In addition, the RF circuitry 610 may also communicate with networks and other devices via wireless communications. The wireless communications may use any communication standard or protocol including, but not limited to, global system for mobile communications (global system of mobile communication, GSM), general packet radio service (general packet radio service, GPRS), code division multiple access (code division multiple access, CDMA), wideband code division multiple access (wideband code division multiple access, WCDMA), long term evolution (long term evolution, LTE), email, short message service (short messaging service, SMS), and the like.

The memory 620 may be used to store software programs and modules, and the processor 680 performs various functional applications and data processing of the terminal device by executing the software programs and modules stored in the memory 620. The memory 620 may mainly include a storage program area and a storage data area, wherein the storage program area may store an operating system, application programs required for at least one function (such as a sound playing function, an image playing function, etc.), and the like; the storage data area may store data (such as audio data, phonebook, etc.) created according to the use of the terminal device, and the like. In addition, memory 620 may include high-speed random access memory, and may also include non-volatile memory, such as at least one magnetic disk storage device, flash memory device, or other volatile solid-state storage device.

The input unit 630 may be used to receive input numeric or character information and to generate key signal inputs related to user settings and function control of the terminal device. In particular, the input unit 630 may include a touch panel 631 and other input devices 632. The touch panel 631, also referred to as a touch screen, may collect touch operations thereon or thereabout by a user (e.g., operations of the user on the touch panel 631 or thereabout using any suitable object or accessory such as a finger, a stylus, etc.), and drive the corresponding connection device according to a preset program. Alternatively, the touch panel 631 may include two parts of a touch detection device and a touch controller. The touch detection device detects the touch azimuth of a user, detects a signal brought by touch operation and transmits the signal to the touch controller; the touch controller receives touch information from the touch detection device and converts it into touch point coordinates, which are then sent to the processor 680 and can receive commands from the processor 680 and execute them. In addition, the touch panel 631 may be implemented in various types such as a resistive type, a capacitive type, an infrared ray, and a surface acoustic wave. The input unit 630 may include other input devices 632 in addition to the touch panel 631.

The display unit 640 may include a display panel 641, and optionally, the display panel 641 may be configured in the form of a liquid crystal display (liquid crystal display, LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), or the like. Further, the touch panel 631 may cover the display panel 641, and when the touch panel 631 detects a touch operation thereon or thereabout, the touch panel 631 is transferred to the processor 680 to determine the type of the touch event, and then the processor 680 provides a corresponding visual output on the display panel 641 according to the type of the touch event. Although in fig. 6, the touch panel 631 and the display panel 641 are two independent components to implement the input and input functions of the terminal device, in some embodiments, the touch panel 631 and the display panel 641 may be integrated to implement the input and output functions of the terminal device.

In particular, the light sensor may include an ambient light sensor that may adjust the brightness of the display panel 641 according to the brightness of ambient light, and a proximity sensor that may turn off the display panel 641 and/or the backlight when the terminal device moves to the ear. As one of the motion sensors, the accelerometer sensor can detect the acceleration in all directions (generally three axes), and can detect the gravity and direction when stationary, and can be used for recognizing the gesture of the terminal equipment (such as horizontal and vertical screen switching, related games, magnetometer gesture calibration), vibration recognition related functions (such as pedometer and knocking), and the like; other sensors such as gyroscopes, barometers, hygrometers, thermometers, infrared sensors, etc. that may also be configured for the terminal device are not described in detail herein.

Audio circuitry 660, speaker 661, microphone 662 may provide an audio interface between a user and the terminal device. The audio circuit 660 may transmit the received electrical signal converted from audio data to the speaker 661, and the electrical signal is converted into a sound signal by the speaker 661 to be output; on the other hand, microphone 662 converts the collected sound signals into electrical signals, which are received by audio circuit 660 and converted into audio data, which are processed by audio data output processor 680 for transmission to, for example, another terminal device via RF circuit 610, or which are output to memory 620 for further processing.

Processor 680 is a control center of the terminal device, and connects various parts of the entire terminal device using various interfaces and lines, and performs various functions of the terminal device and processes data by running or executing software programs and/or modules stored in memory 620, and calling data stored in memory 620, thereby performing overall monitoring of the terminal device. Optionally, processor 680 may include one or more processing units; preferably, the processor 680 may integrate an application processor that primarily handles operating systems, user interfaces, applications, etc., with a modem processor that primarily handles wireless communications.
