The main application icon and the sub-body application icon of the target application are managed through the component, the problem that the application icons in the interface are arranged in a mess mode is solved, the application icons are directly deleted through the fourth input, and the operation steps of deleting the application icons by a user are simplified.

As an alternative implementation, as shown in fig. 16, after removing the application icon in response to the fourth input, the method further includes: step 113 and step 114.

And step 113, acquiring the number of the application icons in the component.

In the embodiment of the present application, the application icon includes: the main application icon, the first sub-body application icon and the second sub-body application icon of the target application.

In step 114, in the case that the number of application icons is equal to one, the component is removed.

In the embodiment of the application, when the number of the application icons in the component is equal to one, the component includes the application icons, and the interface of the electronic device cancels display of the component and displays the application icons.

According to the embodiment of the application, after the application icons in the component are removed, the electronic equipment acquires the number of the application icons in the component. And in the case that the number of the application icons is equal to one, automatically canceling the display of the component, displaying the application icons, simplifying the user operation, and displaying the application with the divided application icon and the application without the divided application icon in different modes by the electronic equipment so that the user can clearly distinguish the application icons from each other.
