The terms first, second and the like in the description and in the claims, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used may be interchanged where appropriate such that embodiments of the application may be practiced otherwise than as specifically illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, in the description and claims, "and/or" means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/", generally means that the associated object is an "or" relationship.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the identifier is used to indicate the text, symbol, image, etc. of the information, and the control or other containers may be used as carriers for displaying the information, including but not limited to text identifier, symbol identifier, and image identifier.

The time display method, the device, the electronic equipment and the readable storage medium provided by the embodiment of the application are described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenes thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The time display method provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to scenes of displaying the time of different areas by the electronic equipment.

For example, assuming that the time associated with the region a (e.g., the reference region in the embodiment of the present application) is time 1 (e.g., the reference time in the embodiment of the present application), if the user needs to know the expiration of the time range to which the region B and the region c (e.g., the first region in the embodiment of the present application) belong in the time range corresponding to time 1, the user may trigger the electronic device to determine time 2 of the region B (e.g., the first time in the embodiment of the present application) according to the time difference between the region B and the region a and time 1, and determine time 3 of the region c (e.g., the first time in the embodiment of the present application) according to the time difference between the region c and the region a and time 1, then the electronic device may display an interface (e.g., the target interface in the embodiment of the present application) on which the time entry a indicating the expiration of the region B in the time range to which time 2 belongs and the time entry B indicating the expiration of the time period of the region c in the time range to which time 3 belongs (e.g., the first input in the embodiment of the present application) may be triggered, and may be notified by the electronic device to determine the time 3 of the time of the region c according to the time range to which the time entry B and the time 1 to the time entry in the embodiment of the time 1 to the time range to which the time B belongs in the time range to the time 1 may be displayed.

Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides a time display method, which may include the following steps 101 and 102. The method is exemplarily described below by taking an electronic device as an example.

Step 101, the electronic device receives a first input of a user.

Step 102, the electronic device displays a target interface in response to the first input.

In the embodiment of the present application, the target interface includes M first time entries, and each first time entry may be used to indicate a stage of a first region in a time range to which the first time belongs.

The first time may be determined according to a reference time and a target time difference, where the reference time is associated with a reference region, the target time difference is a time difference between the first region and the reference region, and M is a positive integer.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present application, the first area may be a country or a region of a country.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the reference area may be one first area (1) of M first areas indicated by the M first time entries, or may be any area (2) other than the M first areas, which may specifically be set according to actual use requirements of a user, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited. Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the reference time may be a current time of the reference area, or the reference time may be a time determined by the electronic device based on input of a reference time entry by a user, and the reference time entry may be a time entry corresponding to the reference area. The method for determining the reference time by the electronic device based on the user input to the reference time entry will be described in detail in the following embodiments, and in order to avoid repetition, details are omitted here.

It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, in the above (1), the reference time entry is one time entry of the above M first time entries.

In the embodiment of the application, the current time of the reference area is the current time of the time zone to which the reference area belongs.

In the embodiment of the application, the electronic equipment can determine the reference time based on the current time of the reference area or the input of the user on the time item corresponding to the reference area, namely, the electronic equipment can determine the reference time in different modes, so that the diversity of the determination of the reference time by the electronic equipment can be improved.

Further, the electronic device can determine the reference time based on the current time of the reference area or the input of the user on the time item corresponding to the reference area, so that the electronic device can further determine the first time indicated by each time item according to the reference time required by the user, and the flexibility of the display time of the electronic device can be improved.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, each first time entry may include a time information, where the time information is used to indicate a first time.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present application, the time information may include any time-related information such as time, date, or season.

Alternatively, in an embodiment of the present application, the time information may indicate the first time in any possible form.

For example, the time information may indicate the first time in the form of a time identifier, specifically, as shown in (a) in fig. 2, the electronic device displays the target interface 20, the target interface 20 includes 4 time entries (i.e., M first time entries), and the time indicated by the time identifier 22 in the time entry 21 is 07:00, it can be seen that the time entry 21 includes time information of "8 months and 23 days and sunday", so that the user can quickly acquire time information of irak through the time entry 21.

In the embodiment of the application, since each first time item can comprise the time information for indicating the first time, the user can directly know the first time of the region indicated by each first time item through M first time items, so that the use experience of the user can be improved. A method for the electronic device to determine the first time from the reference time and the target time difference is exemplarily described below.

Illustratively, assume that the reference region is region 0 and that the reference time associated with region 0 is 08 am: 00, if the time difference a between the region 1 and the region 0 is +3 hours (i.e. the time of the region 1 is 3 hours later than the time of the region 0), the electronic device may determine that the first time of the region 1 is 11 am according to the reference time and the time difference a: 00; if the time difference b between the region 2 and the region 0 is-2 hours (i.e. the time of the region 2 is 2 hours earlier than the time of the region 0), the electronic device may determine that the first time of the region 2 is 06 am according to the reference time and the time difference b: 00.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the stage of a region may be a period of life and work in a day of the region, for example, the stage of a region may include a working period and a non-working period in a day of the region, or the stage of a region may include a working period, an entertainment period and a rest period in a day of the region, which may be specifically set according to actual use requirements of users.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the stage of the first area may be indicated by a color of a first time entry corresponding to the first area (mode 1) or a special identifier in the first time entry (mode 2).

Illustratively, taking the example of mode 1, assuming that time entry 1 indicates a period of time of region 1 within a time range to which the first time belongs, then: if the color of the time item 1 is red, the time range to which the first time belongs is the working time period of the first area; if the color of the time item 1 is gray, the time range to which the first time belongs is a non-working time period of the first region.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first time entry may correspond to a time range, where the time range is: a+/-b; wherein a is the first time corresponding to the first time entry, and b is greater than 0. Each position in the length direction of the first time item may correspond to a time point within the time range, and the color of each position is used to indicate a gear period of the first region at the time point. It is understood that the first time corresponds to an intermediate position of the first time entry. Thus, the user can intuitively see whether the time is working time or non-working time or time about to get off duty at the moment through the color change of the first time item.

Further, the user does not need to judge whether the place is working time or not in a time conversion mode, so that the accurate process of communication/communication in different places can be simplified.

Also illustratively, taking the example of the mode 2, the stage of the first region may be indicated by a text identifier in a first time entry corresponding to the first region, for example, the text "entertainment" identifier may indicate the stage of the entertainment time period in a day of the first region, the text "rest" identifier may indicate the stage of the rest time period in a day of the first region, and so on.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the target interface may be any interface including M first time entries, and the user may trigger the electronic device to display the target interface through input of an icon of an application program corresponding to the target interface, or a control corresponding to the target interface, or the like.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first input may be any possible input form, such as a suspension input, a touch input, a voice input, etc., and may specifically be determined according to actual use requirements, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

For example, taking the first input as a touch input as an example, the first input may be a click input of an icon of an application program corresponding to the target interface by a user.

In the time display method provided by the embodiment of the application, because the electronic equipment can display an interface comprising M time items through the input of the user, each time item indicates the stage of a region in the time range to which one time belongs, and the time can be determined according to the time difference between the region and the reference time associated with the reference region, the user can know the stage of the different regions in the time range to which the time determined according to the reference time and the target time difference through different time items, so that the user can conveniently communicate with the user in the different regions at proper time, and the function of the display time of the electronic equipment can be enriched.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, after the step 102, the time display method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps 103 to 106.

Step 103, the electronic device receives a second input from the user for a second time entry of the M first time entries.

Step 104, the electronic device displays a setting interface corresponding to the second time item in response to the second input.

In the embodiment of the present application, the second time entry may correspond to a second region.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present application, the second time entry may be any one of the M first time entries. The second region may be any one of M first regions indicated by M first time entries.

It can be appreciated that in the embodiment of the present application, each time entry corresponds to a setting interface.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the second input may be any possible input form, such as a suspension input, a touch input, a voice input, etc., and may specifically be determined according to actual use requirements, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

Step 105, the electronic device receives a third input from the user on the setting interface.

Step 106, the electronic device responds to the third input and executes the first processing corresponding to the third input.

In an embodiment of the present application, the first process may include any one of the following:

1. the name of the second region is modified.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present application, the name of the second region may be a name displayed in a time entry corresponding to the second region.

For example, the user may modify the name of the second zone to be the name, nickname, of a colleague/friend working in the second zone, or modify the name of the second zone to be the name of a partner company located in the second zone.

2. And adjusting the stage of the second area.

For example, assuming that period 1 is an operational period of the second region before receiving the third input, the electronic device may adjust period 1 to a non-operational period of the second region after receiving the third input.

3. The entry is added in the second time entry.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the item may be a content set by the user and used for prompting in one time entry, for example, the item may be a note, a memo, or the like.

4. The second time entry is set as the reference time entry.

5. The setting of the second time entry as the reference time entry is canceled.

In the embodiment of the application, if the second time item is the reference time item before receiving the third input, the user may trigger the electronic device to cancel setting the second time item as the reference time item through the third input.
