Description

Data storage method and device

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to the field of data storage technologies, and in particular, to a data storage method and apparatus.

Background

Electronic devices are typically integrated with a setup application. The setting application is an application program for personalized setting and rights management of the electronic device. The setup application contains system and update, application management, etc. setup options. Wherein the "system and update" settings option of the settings application may be jumped to the software update application. The software update application contains a switch item for opening an automatic download update of the software. If the user wishes to automatically update the application software in the electronic device, the user can set the switch item in the software update application to an on state; if the user does not wish to automatically update the application software in the electronic device, the user may set the switch item in the software update application to an off state. But if the user deletes the related data of the software update application, the setting data of the switch item for starting the automatic download update of the software is also deleted. This occurs as follows: the user closes the automatic download updating of the software, but the electronic equipment can automatically download the updated software, so that the use experience of the user is reduced.

Disclosure of Invention

The application provides a data storage method and device, wherein setting data of a first switch item of a software update application is not deleted when the data of the software update application is deleted, so that the first switch item of the software update application can keep a state set by a user.

In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a data storage method. The method comprises the following steps: when the first switch item of the software updating application is detected to be set to the second state from the first state, setting data of the first switch item is stored in a first database of the setting application. That is, the embodiment of the present invention stores the setting data of the first switch item of the software update application in the first database of the setting application. The first database of the setup application stores the latest state values set by the user for the software update application. Alternatively, the first database of the setup application may be a settings database. Alternatively, when entering the setting interface of the software update application, the software update application may display the first switching item in the second state according to the setting data of the first database of the setting application. Alternatively, when the software update application needs to perform the function associated with the first switch item, the software update application may determine the latest setting state of the first switch item according to the setting data of the first database, thereby deciding whether to perform the function associated with the first switch item. For example, when the first switch item is in the off state, the function associated with the first switch item is not executed; when the first switch item is in an on state, the function of the first switch item is executed.

In the embodiment of the invention, since the setting data of the first switch item is stored in the first database of the setting application, when the user deletes the data of the software updating application, only the database associated with the software updating application is deleted, and the data in the first database of the setting application is not deleted. Therefore, when the user deletes the data of the software update application, the software update application can still acquire the setting state of the first switch item through the first database of the setting application, and the switch item state set by the user is not lost/changed because the user deletes the data of the software update application.

Optionally, the first switching item is a switching item automatically downloaded under the WLAN and/or a switching item installed at night.

In some embodiments, the first switch item of the software update application is set from a first state to a second state, comprising: the first switch item of the software updating application is set to a non-default state from a default state; alternatively, the first switch item of the software update application is set to a default state from a non-default state.

In some embodiments, it is assumed that the user modifies the first switch item of the software update application from a default state to a non-default state. If the electronic equipment executes the method of the embodiment of the invention, when the user enters the setting interface of the software updating application again after deleting the data of the software updating application, the first switch item is still displayed in a non-default state. If the electronic equipment does not execute the method of the embodiment of the invention, the first switch item is still displayed as a default state when the user enters the setting interface of the software updating application again after deleting the data of the software updating application. Therefore, by the method, the first switch item of the software updating application can keep the state set by the user, and the state set by the user cannot be lost/changed due to the fact that the user deletes the data.

In some embodiments, the default state of the first switch item is an on state and the non-default state is an off state. Of course, the default state of the first switch item may be an off state, and the non-default state may be an on state.

In some embodiments, the software update application is provided with a first memory variable. The software update application may monitor the first database of the setup application via the first memory variable. And when the software updating application detects that the setting data of the first switch item stored in the first database is changed from a first state to a second state, assigning the first memory variable to the second state.

In the above embodiment, the software update application may store the latest setting state of the first switch item through the first memory variable. And the first memory variable is a variable of the software updating application, and the value of the first memory variable is not deleted when the data of the software updating application is deleted. When the software update application needs to perform the function of the first switch item, the software update application may determine the latest setting state of the first switch item according to the first memory variable. When a user enters a setting interface of the software updating application, the software updating application can read the value of the first memory variable, and according to the value of the first memory variable, the first switch item is displayed to be in the second state on the setting interface of the software updating application. By the method, the software updating application can acquire the setting state of the first switch item according to the first memory variable, and the first database of the setting application is not required to be accessed each time the function of the first switch item is required to be executed or each time the setting interface of the software updating application is entered, so that the system overhead can be saved.

In some embodiments, after the detecting that the setting interface of the software update application is entered, the method further includes, after displaying the first switch item to the second state according to the setting data of the first database: and if the second state is not the preset specified state, displaying first prompt information, wherein the first prompt information is used for prompting whether the first switch item is set to be in the preset specified state. Alternatively, the preset specified state may be, for example, an on state. Of course, the preset specified state may be an off state.

Optionally, if the second state of the first switch item displayed on the software update interface is not the preset specified state, an option for setting the number of prompts of the first prompt information is displayed in addition to the first prompt information. Optionally, the options for setting the number of first prompt messages may include: the first prompting information prompts only once, prompts each time a setting interface of the software update application is entered, and the like.

If the selected operation of the user on the options is detected, determining a prompting times threshold of the first prompting information according to the selected operation, wherein the prompting times threshold is used for determining the displaying times of the first prompting information. For example, when the user selects the first prompt information to prompt only once, the threshold of the prompting times associated with the first prompt information is once. When the user reenters the setting interface of the software updating application next time, if the state of the first switch item is still not the preset designated state, the first prompt message is not displayed any more.

In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present invention is an electronic device, including: the electronic device comprises a memory for storing program instructions and a processor for executing the program instructions, wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, trigger the electronic device to perform the method according to the first aspect or any one of the first aspects described above.

In a third aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a computer readable storage medium having a computer program stored therein, which when run on an electronic device causes the electronic device to perform the method according to the first aspect or any one of the first aspects.

It should be understood that, the second to third aspects of the embodiments of the present invention are consistent with the technical solutions of the first aspect of the present application, and the beneficial effects obtained by each aspect and the corresponding possible implementation manner are similar, and are not repeated.

Referring to fig. 2, a schematic diagram of setting a switching item in a setting interface of a software update application according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided.

As shown in fig. 2 (a), a set function button is displayed on the main interface of the software update application. After detecting the clicking operation on the setting function button, the electronic equipment jumps to the setting interface of the software updating application.

As shown in (b) of fig. 2, the setup interface of the software update application displays a switch item for starting the automatic download update of the software. In some embodiments, the switch item for turning on the software auto-download update may be implemented as one switch item. When the switch item is set to be in an on state, the electronic equipment can automatically download and update corresponding software installed on the electronic equipment when detecting new version of application software. In some embodiments, the switch item for initiating the automatic download update of the software may be implemented as two switch items, one for initiating the automatic download of the software and the other for performing the installation of the software based on the downloaded software. As shown in (b) of fig. 2, the switching item for turning on the software auto-download update may be implemented as a switching item for automatic download under WLAN and a switching item for night installation. When the switch item automatically downloaded under the WLAN is kept on, the electronic equipment can automatically download an upgrade package or update application of application software installed by the electronic equipment when the WLAN is connected. When the switch item installed at night is kept on, the electronic device can automatically install and restart the downloaded upgrade package at 2:00-4:00.

In some embodiments, if the user does not wish the electronic device to download automatically under the WLAN, the automatically downloaded switch item under the WLAN may be set to an off state. If the user does not wish the electronic device to automatically install the software package, the night installed switch item may be set to an off state.

In some embodiments, the default state of the auto download and night install switch item under the WLAN is an on state and the non-default state is an off state. In some embodiments, the default state of the auto download and night install switch item under the WLAN is an off state and the non-default state is an on state. Optionally, the default state of the automatic download and night install switch item under the WLAN refers to the state of the automatic download and night install switch item under the WLAN when the electronic device is first powered on or first powered on after being formatted.

As shown in fig. 2 (b), the default state of the automatic download and night install switch item under the WLAN is the on state. If the user does not wish the electronic device to download automatically under the WLAN and does not wish to install the automatically downloaded software at night, the user may set the switch item for automatic download under the WLAN and night installation to an off state. When the electronic device detects a left-hand sliding motion of the automatically downloaded and night-installed switching item under the WLAN as shown in (b) of fig. 2, the automatically downloaded and night-installed switching item under the WLAN is set from an on state to an off state as shown in (c) of fig. 2. Accordingly, in the state shown in fig. 2 (c), when the electronic device detects a right-hand sliding motion of the switch item for automatic download and night installation under the WLAN, the switch item for automatic download and night installation under the WLAN is set from the off state to the on state.

In some embodiments, when the electronic device detects that the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN is set to the off state from the on state, or when the electronic device detects that the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN is set to the on state from the off state, the electronic device stores setting data of the switch item in a database of the software update application.

Referring to fig. 3, a schematic diagram of entering application management from a setting application is provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in (a) of fig. 3, the setting options of the setting application include an "application" setting option. After the electronic device detects a click operation on the "application" setting option, the electronic device jumps to the setting option interface of the "application".

As shown in (B) of fig. 3, the "application" setting option is cascaded with several sub-setting options, such as "application management" setting option, setting option a, setting option B … … setting option F, and so on. After the electronic equipment detects the clicking operation on the setting options of the application management, the electronic equipment jumps to the interface of the cascade of the setting options of the application management.

As shown in fig. 3 (c), the interface of the "application management" setting option cascade displays a list of applications installed by the electronic device. The method comprises the following steps: software update application, application 1, application 2 … … application 6. When the electronic equipment detects clicking operation acting on the 'software update' option, the electronic equipment jumps to an application information interface schematic diagram of the 'software update' application.

Referring to fig. 4, a schematic diagram of deleting data of a software update application is provided in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 4 (a), information such as notification management, authority, traffic use, storage, memory, and the like of the software update application is displayed on the application information interface of the "software update" application. When the electronic equipment detects clicking operation on the storage option, the electronic equipment jumps to a storage information interface of the software updating application.

As shown in fig. 4 (b), it is possible to display how much storage space is occupied by the application and data of the software update application, respectively, and how much storage space is occupied in total, at the storage information interface of the software update application. Optionally, the stored information interface of the software update application is further provided with a "delete data" function button. When the electronic equipment detects clicking operation of the 'delete data' function button, the electronic equipment jumps to a prompt interface for deleting the software update application data.

As shown in fig. 4 (c), a prompt message indicating whether to delete the selected application data is displayed on the prompt interface. If the electronic device detects a click operation on the determination button, the electronic device deletes the data of the software update application. Optionally, the electronic device may delete all files, settings, accounts, databases, etc. of the software update application. Wherein, in connection with the descriptions of (a) to (c) in fig. 2, setting data of the switching items automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN is stored in a database of the software update application. If the software update application is deleted, the setting data of the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN is also deleted. Accordingly, the switching items automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN are also restored to the default state. That is, if the switch item for automatic download and night installation under the WLAN is set from the default on state to the non-default off state, the switch item for automatic download and night installation under the WLAN is restored to the on state after deleting the data of the software update application. Then, when the electronic device connects to the WLAN, the electronic device will still automatically download an upgrade package or update the application of the application software installed by the electronic device. When the upgrade package is in the range of 2:00-4:00, the electronic equipment automatically installs and restarts the downloaded upgrade package. Therefore, after the user turns off the WLAN and automatically downloads and installs the software update package at night, the electronic device still can automatically download and install the software update package, and the use experience of the user is reduced.

To avoid this, an embodiment of the present invention provides a data storage method. The method of the embodiment of the invention stores the data of the related switch item of the software updating application in a database of the setting application. When the user deletes the data of the software update application, the setting data of the relevant switch item of the software update application is not deleted, whereby the switch item of the software update application can be kept in the state set by the user.

Referring to fig. 5, a flowchart of a data storage method according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided. The method shown in fig. 5 is applied to an electronic device. The electronic device is installed with a setup application and a software update application. More specifically, a software update application is used to perform the method of embodiments of the present invention. The method shown in fig. 5 comprises the following steps:

when the first switch item of the software update application is set from the first state to the second state, setting data of the first switch item is stored in a first database of the setting application 201. Optionally, the first switch item includes a switch item automatically downloaded under WLAN and/or a switch item installed at night. In some embodiments, the first switching item includes a switching item automatically downloaded under the WLAN and a switching item installed at night.

In some embodiments, the setting of the first switch item of the software update application from the first state to the second state comprises: the first switch item of the software updating application is set to a non-default state from a default state; alternatively, the first switch item of the software update application is set to a default state from a non-default state.

In some embodiments, the default state of the first switch item is an on state and the non-default state is an off state; alternatively, the default state of the first switch item is an off state, and the non-default state is an on state.

In some embodiments, the first database of the setting application is a settings database.

202, when the setting interface of the software updating application is re-entered, the software updating application displays the first switch item to be in the second state according to the setting data of the first database.

In the embodiment of the invention, the setting data of the first switch item of the software updating application is stored in a setting database of the setting application. The software update application performs the function of the first switch item according to the setting data of the settings database of the setting application. When the user enters a setting interface of the software updating application, the software updating application displays the setting state of the first switch item according to the setting data of the settings database. In some scenarios, if the user deletes the data of the software update application, the setting data of the first switch item of the software update application is not deleted because the setting data of the first switch item is stored in the database of the setting application. Thus, the software update application still performs the function of the first switch item according to the state set by the user. When the user enters the setting interface of the software updating application again, the display state of the first switch item is still the setting state of the user.

In some embodiments, the software update application is provided with a first memory variable. The software update application may monitor the first database of the setup application via the first memory variable. When the software updating application detects that the setting data of the first switch item stored in the first database is changed from the first state to the second state, the first memory variable is assigned to the second state. Because the first memory variable is a variable of the software updating application, the value of the first memory variable is not deleted when the data of the software updating application is deleted. Thus, even if the data of the software update application is deleted, the software update application can still acquire the setting state of the first switch item through the first memory variable. When the software update application needs to perform the function of the first switch item, the software update application may determine the latest setting state of the first switch item according to the first memory variable. When the software updating application detects that the setting interface of the software updating application is entered, the software updating application displays the state of the first switch item according to the first memory variable. In this way, the software updating application can acquire the latest setting state of the first switch item based on the first memory variable, and access to the first database of the setting application is not required each time the function of the first switch item is required to be executed or each time the setting interface of the software updating application is entered, so that the system overhead can be saved.

In some embodiments, the first switch item is displayed in the second state when entering a setup interface of the software update application. And if the second state is not the preset specified state, displaying first prompt information on a setting interface of the software updating application, wherein the first prompt information is used for prompting whether the first switch item is set to be in the preset specified state. Alternatively, the preset specified state may be set as needed. For example, the preset specified state is an on state. Or the preset designated state is a default state of the first switch item. By the method, the user can be reminded of timely setting the first switch item to be in a preset appointed state.

In some embodiments, if the second state displayed by the first switch item is not the preset specified state, an option for setting the number of prompts of the first prompt information is displayed in addition to the first prompt information on the setting interface of the software update application. Optionally, the options for setting the number of first prompt messages may include: the first prompting information prompts only once, prompts each time a setting interface of the software update application is entered, and the like.

If the selected operation of the user on the options is detected, determining a prompting times threshold of the first prompting information according to the selected operation, wherein the prompting times threshold is used for determining the displaying times of the first prompting information. For example, when the user selects the first prompt information to prompt only once, the threshold of the prompting times associated with the first prompt information is once. When the user reenters the setting interface of the software updating application next time, if the state of the first switch item is still not the preset designated state, the first prompt message is not displayed any more. By the method, the influence of the frequent display of the first prompt information on the user experience can be avoided.

In some embodiments, the first switching item includes: the WLAN downloads and installs switching items at night automatically. The default state of automatic download and night install under WLAN is on. Assume that the user sets the auto download and night install switch item under WLAN from a default on to an off state. And when the user reenters the setting interface of the software updating application, displaying the first prompt information. As shown in fig. 6, the first prompt information may be, for example: whether to set the WLAN download automatically and night install to on state. In some embodiments, the setup interface of the software update application may display an option of "whether the reminder is reminded only once" in addition to the first reminder information. If the user selects the reminder only once, the software update application sets the number of reminders threshold to 1. Then, when the user enters the setting interface of the software updating application again, if the switch item automatically downloaded under the WLAN and installed at night is still in a closed state, determining whether the prompting times of the first prompting information exceeds a prompting times threshold; if the first prompt information exceeds the first prompt information, the first prompt information is not displayed any more; if not, displaying the first prompt information.

The data storage method of the present invention will be described below with reference to specific embodiments. In the following specific embodiment, the first switch item of the software update application includes: the WLAN downloads and installs switching items at night automatically. The default state of automatic download and night install under WLAN is on.

Example one

The software update application of the first electronic device performs the data storage method of the embodiment of the invention. Referring to fig. 7, a comparison diagram of an interface is provided after deleting data of a software update application of a first electronic device.

The first electronic device displays the interface shown in fig. 7 (a) based on the steps shown in fig. 1 (a) -fig. 2 (b). Fig. 7 (a) is a setup interface of a software update application of the first electronic device. The setup interface of the software update application displays the switch items for automatic download and night install under WLAN. If the user does not modify the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN, the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN of the first electronic device defaults to an on state. When the first electronic device detects an operation of setting the switching item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN to the off state by the user, the first electronic device displays the interface shown in (b) of fig. 7. As shown in (b) of fig. 7, the first electronic device responds to an operation of setting the switching item of the automatic download and the night installation under the WLAN to the off state. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps: the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night on the WLAN on the setup interface of the software update application of the first electronic device is displayed in an off state. The first electronic device no longer performs the operations of automatic download and night installation of the software upgrade package under the WLAN. Further comprises: the first electronic device stores setting data of which the switching item is in an off state and which is automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN in a setting database of the setting application. Optionally, the software update application is provided with a first memory variable. When the software updating application detects that the setting data of the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN in the settings database is changed, the changed setting data is assigned to the first memory variable. In the example given in fig. 7 (b), the software update application assigns a switch item for automatic download and night time installation under WLAN to a first memory variable as an off state. And then, when the first electronic equipment is connected with the WLAN, determining that the automatically downloaded switch item under the WLAN is in a closed state according to the first memory variable, and not executing the operation of automatically downloading the upgrade package or updating the application under the WLAN. And when the switch item installed at night is in the closed state according to the first memory variable in the time of 02:00-4:00, not executing the software installation operation.

Based on the steps shown in fig. 3 (a) -4 (c), the first electronic device enters the interface shown in fig. 7 (c). Fig. 7 (c) shows a data prompt interface for the first electronic device to delete the software update application. As shown in fig. 7 (c), when the first electronic device detects an operation of deleting the data of the software update application, the data of the database and the related files of the software update application are deleted. Optionally, the delete operation does not delete an operation to set the first database of the application and does not delete the first memory variable of the software update application. After deleting the data of the software updating application, when the first electronic equipment is connected with the WLAN again, determining that the automatically downloaded switch item under the WLAN is in a closed state according to the first memory variable, and then the first electronic equipment does not execute the operation of automatically downloading the upgrade package or updating the application under the WLAN. And when the first electronic equipment determines that the switch item installed at night is in the closed state according to the first memory variable at 02:00-4:00 at night, the software installation operation is not executed.

As shown in (d) of fig. 7, after deleting the data of the software update application, when the software update application reenters the setting interface of the software update application of the first electronic device, the software update application reads the value of the first memory variable. The value of the first memory variable is that the switch items of automatic downloading under WLAN and night installation are in a closed state. And according to the value of the first memory variable, the switch item automatically downloaded under WLAN and installed at night in the setting interface of the software updating application is displayed in a closed state.

As shown in (d) of fig. 7, after deleting the data of the software update application, when the first electronic device reenters the setting interface of the software update application, the setting interface of the software update application may further display the first prompt information. The first prompt message includes: whether to set the WLAN download automatically and night install to on state. Optionally, the setup interface of the software update application may also set an option of "whether the reminder reminds only once. If the user does not select the option, the next time the user enters the setup interface of the software update application, the setup interface of the software update application again displays the first prompt message and the option of "whether the reminder reminds only once". If the user selects the option, the next time the user enters the setting interface of the software updating application, the setting interface of the software updating application does not display the first prompt information any more, and the switch item of the automatic download and night installation setting under the WLAN is still displayed in a closed state.

Therefore, according to the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the setting data of the switch item of the software updating application is not deleted when the data of the software updating application is deleted, so that the switch item of the software updating application can keep the state set by a user.

It should be noted that, if the first electronic device detects that the data of the setting application is deleted, the first electronic device may filter the data in the first database of the setting application. If the data of the application itself is set, deleting; if the data of the application itself is not set, the data is not deleted. For example, the first database of the setting application stores setting data of the above-described switch item of the software update application, which is not data of the setting application itself, and deletion is not performed. In this way, it is possible to avoid deleting the switch item data of the software update application when deleting the data of the setting application.

Example two

The software update application of the second electronic device does not perform the data storage method of the embodiment of the invention. Referring to fig. 8, a comparison diagram of the interface is set after deleting the data of the software update application of the second electronic device.

The second electronic device displays the interface shown in fig. 8 (a) based on the steps shown in fig. 1 (a) -2 (b). Fig. 8 (a) is a setup interface of a software update application of the second electronic device. The setup interface of the software update application displays the switch items for automatic download and night install under WLAN. If the user does not modify the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN, the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN of the second electronic device defaults to an on state. When the second electronic device detects an operation of setting the switching item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN to the off state by the user, the second electronic device displays the interface shown in (b) of fig. 8. As shown in (b) of fig. 8, the second electronic device responds to an operation of setting the switching item of the automatic download and the night installation under the WLAN to the off state. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps: the switch item automatically downloaded and installed at night on the WLAN interface of the software update application of the second electronic device is displayed in an off state. The second electronic device stores setting data of the switch item in an off state, which is automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN, in a database of the software update application, which is called a second database. And when the second electronic equipment is connected with the WLAN, determining that the automatically downloaded switch item under the WLAN is in a closed state according to the second database, and not executing the operation of automatically downloading the upgrade package or updating the application under the WLAN. And when the switch item installed at night is in the closed state according to the second database in the time of 02:00-4:00, not executing the software installation operation.

Based on the steps shown in fig. 3 (a) -4 (c), the second electronic device enters the interface shown in fig. 8 (c). Fig. 8 (c) shows a data prompt interface for deleting the software update application for the second electronic device. As shown in fig. 8 (c), when the second electronic device detects an operation of deleting the data of the software update application, the data of the database and the related files of the software update application are deleted. Optionally, the deletion operation deletes the setting data of the second database, that is, the setting data of the automatic download and night installation switch item under the WLAN. The setting state of the automatic download and night install switch item under WLAN is restored to the default state. Optionally, the setting state of the automatic download and night installation switch item under the WLAN is restored to the on state.

As shown in (d) of fig. 8, after deleting the data of the software update application, when the software update application reenters the setting interface of the software update application of the second electronic device, the software update application determines that the switching item automatically downloaded and installed at night under the WLAN is in an on state according to the second database. Accordingly, as shown in (d) of fig. 8, the switch item of the automatic download and night installation under the WLAN in the software update application setting interface is also displayed in an on state. Optionally, after deleting the data of the software update application, when the second electronic device connects to the WLAN again, determining that the automatically downloaded switch item under the WLAN is in an on state according to the second database, and executing the operation of automatically downloading the upgrade package or updating the application under the WLAN by the second electronic device. And when the second electronic equipment determines that the switch item installed at night is in an on state according to the second database at 02:00-4:00 of night, executing software installation operation.

It can be seen that, when the software update application of the second electronic device does not execute the method according to the embodiment of the present invention, if the data of the software update application is deleted, the setting data of the user on the switch item of the software update application is deleted accordingly. The associated switch item of the software update application will revert to the default state. It may thus occur that the user has made certain settings for the software update application, but the software update application is autonomously restored to the default state, thereby affecting the user experience.

Example three

The second application of the first electronic device does not execute the data storage method of the embodiment of the present invention. The second application is a different application than the software update application. Referring to fig. 9, a comparison diagram of the setting interface after deleting the setting data of the second application of the first electronic device is shown. Fig. 9 (a) shows an interface for the font size of the second application of the first electronic device. The font size setting interface of the second application displays a sliding bar for adjusting the font size. Optionally, font scales are arranged on the sliding bar, and different font scales correspond to different font sizes. Optionally, a font adjustment control is disposed on the sliding bar. The position of the font adjustment control in the sliding bar is used to indicate the font size currently set by the second application. As shown in (a) of fig. 9, the font size of the second application defaults to the standard size. The font adjustment control is located on a font scale of standard font size. When the first electronic device detects that the user slides the font adjustment control rightwards, the font displayed by the second application becomes larger; when the first electronic device detects that the user slides the font adjustment control leftwards, the font displayed by the second application becomes smaller. As shown in (b) of fig. 9, when the first electronic device detects that the user slides the font adjustment control rightward to a certain font scale, the font displayed by the second application is changed from the standard font to the font size indicated by the font scale. Optionally, the font size currently set by the second application is stored in a database of the second application.

As shown in (c) of fig. 9, if the user deletes the setting data of the second application, the font size set by the second application is deleted accordingly. The font size displayed by the second application is restored to the standard font size. As shown in fig. 9 (d), when the font size setting interface of the second application is re-entered, the font adjustment control is still located on the standard font size font scale.

It can be seen that, when the second application of the first electronic device does not execute the method of the embodiment of the present invention, if the data of the second application is deleted, the setting data of the second application by the user is deleted correspondingly, and the second application is restored to the default state. It may thus happen that the user makes certain settings for the second application, but the second application is autonomously restored to the default state, thereby affecting the user experience.
