In addition, the electronic device according to the embodiment of the present application may be provided with an operating system, on which an application program may be installed and run, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present application, the top end, the bottom end, the left end, the right end, and the upper and lower sides are opposite, and are exemplary descriptions in specific implementations, and should not limit the embodiments of the present application.

The information display method provided in the embodiment of the application is specifically described below in conjunction with an application scenario.

When a user uses a smart device to perform two or more tasks simultaneously, for example, browse a video while returning a message, browse news while waiting for a car, one of the primary tasks needs to be checked for a long time, and the auxiliary tasks do not need to be checked for a long time. Under the condition that the user uses the board straightening machine, when the user checks the main task, the user receives a new message of the auxiliary task, the current screen can display the prompt information of the new message, the operation of the current main task is interrupted, and the user experience is affected.

In view of this, the embodiment of the present application proposes a solution in which when a user checks a new message of a background application, the user does not display a reminder of the new message on a currently used screen, and when the user wants to check the new message, the user displays the received new message on the current screen according to the operation of the user.

Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart of an information display method provided by an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 3, where the method is applied to an electronic device, and the electronic device includes at least two screens, where the at least two screens include a first screen and a second screen, and the first screen and the second screen are opposite to each other, and the method includes:

step 101: and when the first screen displays the interface of the current application, receiving a new message of the background application, and not displaying reminding information for indicating that the background application receives the new message on the first screen.

The first screen here refers to a screen that the user is currently looking at, or a screen that the user is operating/using, and the opposite second screen refers to a screen that the user is not currently operating or using. For example, when the invaginated screen is unfolded, the user operates at the bc screen, which is the first screen, and the a screen behind is the second screen; when the external folding screen is folded, a user operates the a 'screen, wherein the a' screen is a first screen, and the b 'screen behind the a' screen is a second screen; when the upper and lower inner folding screens are unfolded, the user uses the b ' c ' screen, so that the b ' c ' screen is the first screen, and the rear a ' screen is the second screen.

The background application refers to an application program running in the background, which is simply referred to as a background application, and the background application generally refers to an application program corresponding to a minimized window and an application program corresponding to an inactive window. The background application in this step refers to an application running in the electronic device but not displayed on the first screen.

When the user views the interface of the current application on the first screen, the first screen can be considered to be in an immersive application state, and at the moment, a new message of the background application is received, and reminding information for reminding the user of receiving the new message of the background application is not displayed on the first screen. The first screen can be determined to enter the immersive application state in a user setting mode or can be identified to enter the immersive application state in an electronic device automatic identification mode.

Illustratively, the entry of the first screen into the immersive application state may be determined by a user setting a no-disturbance mode or a game mode; or the electronic device recognizes that a certain application is determined when the first screen is presented in a full-screen exclusive form, for example, video full-screen playing, presentation film full-screen playing, or user full-screen playing, etc.; alternatively, the user may set to enter the immersive application state when a certain application is in a certain state.

In some embodiments, displaying the interface of the current application on the first screen may include: and displaying the interface of the current application on the first screen in a full screen mode. When the interface of the current application is displayed on the first screen in a full screen mode, the first screen can be considered to be in an immersive application state, and when a new message of a background application is received, the new message is not displayed on the first screen, the reminding information of the new message is not displayed on the first screen, and the reminding information of the new message is not displayed on a notification bar of the first screen.

In some embodiments, when a new message of a background application is received, the electronic device may display the new message of the background application on the second screen when the first screen does not display the reminding information for indicating that the background application receives the new message.

It should be noted that, displaying the new message of the background application on the second screen may facilitate the user to directly view the new message of the background application on the second screen, without the need for the user to transfer the new message to the first screen for display, which is more convenient for some users who do not like to transfer the message.

For example, if the current application is presented on the first screen in a full-screen exclusive mode, for example, when the video is played full-screen, a new message of the background application may be displayed on the second screen, and the form displayed on the second screen may be a pop-up floating frame (floating window) or the like.

Step 102: and triggering a reminding event, wherein the reminding event is used for reminding a user of receiving the new message.

It should be noted that, after receiving the new message of the background application, although the prompt information is not displayed on the first screen, the user may still be notified by triggering the prompt event.

In some embodiments, the triggering alert event may be triggering an audio alert, triggering a vibration alert, etc., but embodiments of the present application are not limited to these ways, as long as the way of operating the first screen by the user is not affected.

In some embodiments, the electronic device is preset with a user white list, and when the new message of the background application is a message sent by a user in the user white list, the triggering reminding event includes: triggering an icon reminder or a moving picture reminder on the first screen.

It should be noted that, when the first screen is in the immersive application state, the new message received from the common background application does not display any information on the first screen, but for urgent messages, such as information of friends of relatives, information sent by the user in the preset user whitelist, besides vibration reminding or sound reminding, there may be additional reminding to notify the user. The reminding mode can be as follows: a dynamic diagram alert, for example: a colored point flashing alert is provided at the top of the screen of the first screen, for example: red dots, green dots, etc., or icon reminders, for example: and setting a small icon reminder and the like at the top of the screen of the first screen. Other modes of reminding can be adopted besides the mode of adopting a picture or an icon, for example, vibration reminding with larger vibration amplitude and longer vibration duration can be adopted, or sound reminding with longer reminding sound can be adopted. The user can know that the important message is received in a special reminding mode, so that the user can conveniently check the new message as soon as possible.

Step 103: a first operation of the user is detected.

It should be noted that, there may be many ways for the user to perform the first operation, for example, the user shaking the electronic device, the user flipping the electronic device, the user folding the electronic device, the gesture operation performed by the user on the screen, and so on, where the gesture operation performed by the user on the screen may include a single click operation, a double click operation, a sliding operation, a circling operation, and so on, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited to the way performed by the user.

In some embodiments, to facilitate user operation, detecting a first operation by a user may include: gesture operation of the user on the second screen is detected.

For example, when the user looks at the current application with the first screen of the mobile phone facing the front, a new message of the background application is received, and the user feels the vibration reminding. At this time, the user can look at the second screen (the back screen) without turning over the mobile phone, and can simply perform an operation such as a double-click operation or a sliding operation on the back screen by hand, and a new message of the background application can be transferred to the first screen for display. Because the user normally holds the mobile phone for use, a plurality of fingers are placed on the back surface of the mobile phone, so that the user can conveniently perform gesture operation on the screen on the back surface.

Step 104: and responding to the first operation, and displaying a new message of the background application on the first screen.

After detecting the first operation of the user, the electronic device recognizes that the user is to view a new message of the background application, and transfers the new message of the background application to the first screen display.

In some embodiments, displaying the new message of the background application on the first screen may include: if the expanding interface of the new message of the background application comprises a text input control, displaying the new message of the background application on the first screen in a first display mode; if the expanding interface of the new message of the background application does not contain a text input control, displaying the new message of the background application on the first screen in a second display form; the user interaction area of the first display form is larger than the user interaction area of the second display form.

It should be noted that, when the expansion interface of the new message includes a text input control, it is indicated that the new message is a message to be replied, so, in order to facilitate the user to reply and operate the message, the new message may be displayed in a first display form when displayed on the first screen, where the first display form may be a form of popping up a floating window, and when the expansion interface of the new message does not include the text input control, the new message may be displayed in a second display form, where the second display form may be a form of popping up a floating frame, and the user interaction area of the floating window is greater than the user interaction area of the floating frame.

It can be understood that if the new message of the background application is displayed on the second screen, the new message may be displayed in a form of a floating frame, when the new message is transferred from the second screen to the first screen, whether to change the display form may be determined according to whether the expansion interface of the new message includes a text input frame, if so, the new message is automatically switched from the form of a pop-up prompt box to the form of a pop-up floating window for the user to reply and operate the message, if not, the new message is still displayed on the first screen in the form of a pop-up prompt box, and if not, the pop-up floating window with large area will not be changed.

In some embodiments, when the new message of the background application includes a plurality of pieces, displaying the new message of the background application on the first screen may include: and displaying the new message of the background application in the form of a message list on the first screen, or displaying the new message of the background application triggered recently on the first screen.

It should be noted that, when a plurality of messages are received in the background application, after the first operation of the user is detected, the messages may be presented in the form of a message list on the screen of the first screen, and for this message list, the user clicks a corresponding single message, and the single message may be presented in the form of a pop-up floating window or a pop-up frame.

After detecting the first operation of the user, only the newly triggered new message, i.e. the newly received new message, may also be displayed on the screen of the first screen. For example, if a plurality of applications are running in the background, such as navigation, chat, telephone and short message, the recently triggered applications are ranked according to the last time of triggering the applications, after the first operation of the user is detected, new messages of the recently triggered applications are displayed first in the first screen display, and other background applications are ranked in sequence. The user can view the new message at a later time by performing the first operation a plurality of times.

In some embodiments, the electronic device is preset with an application white list, new messages of applications in the application white list are allowed to be displayed on the first screen, and the displaying of new messages of the background applications on the first screen may include: and when the background application is determined to belong to the application in the application white list, displaying a new message of the background application on the first screen.

It should be noted that, the user may manually set or the system automatically set which new messages of the applications may be transferred to the first screen display, and when the user transfers the new messages to the first screen display, only the new messages of the applications in the message white list may be transferred, so that the user may conveniently view the messages of the applications that want to be checked, and remove the spam messages.

It will be appreciated that the user may also manually set or the system automatically set which new messages for the application may be displayed on the screen of the second screen, which may facilitate the user to view new messages for the corresponding application directly on the second screen.

The following list some scenarios for applying the information display method: in one scenario, the user has called a car through the car taking application by using the inward folding screen mobile phone, but the car is still not yet reached, the user waits for the car while watching the video, at the moment, the user simultaneously opens the video application and the car taking application, an interface of the video application is displayed on the first screen, and the car taking application runs in the background. When the user calls the car and reaches the user position, the taxi taking application sends a new message of taxi taking reminding to the user, at the moment, the new message of taxi taking reminding and the reminding information of the new message are not displayed on the first screen, but the electronic equipment sends vibration reminding, the user knows that the new message is received, the user uses fingers to do double-click operation on the screen of the second screen, the new message of taxi taking application is displayed on the first screen, and the user sees the taxi taking reminding message. It will be appreciated that in this scenario, the user would have a similar process if he/she did not watch the video, but played the game.

Fig. 4a is a schematic view of a first panel of an inner folding panel according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 4a, the user views the video on the first screen in full screen, waiting for his own taxi to arrive.

Fig. 4b is a schematic view of a second panel of the inner folding panel according to an embodiment of the present application. When the user is performing the operation of the video application on the first screen, as shown in fig. 4b, the second screen (a screen) receives a new message of the taxi taking application, the new message of the taxi taking application is displayed in a pop-up prompt box form on the second screen, the user feels the vibration prompt of the new message, the user performs the sliding operation with a finger on the second screen (a screen), and the new message is determined to be transferred to the first screen (bc screen) for display.

When the user slides on the second screen (a screen) with a finger, as shown in fig. 4c, the new message is transferred to the first screen (bc screen) being used by the user for display, and after the new message is transferred to the first screen, the new message is directly covered on the currently used video application in a form of popping up a floating window for display, and when the new message processing is completed by the user, the floating window can be closed.

In another scenario, the user uses the out-folded screen mobile phone to watch the video and chat with friends, the first screen displays a video interface, the chat application runs in the background, when receiving a new message sent by a friend, the first screen does not display the new message and the reminding information of the new message, but the electronic equipment sends out a sound reminding, the user knows that the new message is received, when the video is not so wonderful, the user uses fingers to do a rightward sliding operation (relative to the sight of the user) on the second screen, the new message of the chat application is unfolded from right to left on the first screen, and after the user watches and replies the new message, the new message window is closed, and the video continues to be watched.

Fig. 5a is a schematic view of a second panel of an out-folded panel according to an embodiment of the present application. When the user performs the operation of the video application on the first screen (a 'screen), as shown in fig. 5a, the second screen (b' screen) receives the new message of the chat application, the new message of the chat application is displayed in a pop-up prompt box form on the second screen, the user feels the vibration prompt of the new message, and the user can perform the clicking operation with the finger on the second screen (b 'screen) to determine to transfer the new message to the first screen (a' screen) for display.

Fig. 5b is a schematic view of a first panel of an out-folded panel according to an embodiment of the present application. When the user clicks on the second screen (b 'screen) with a finger, as shown in fig. 5b, the new message is transferred to the first screen (a' screen) being used by the user for display, and after the new message is transferred to the first screen, the new message is directly covered on the currently used video application in a form of a popup floating window for display, and when the processing of the new message by the user is completed, the floating window can be closed.

In this scenario, the same is true if the user uses upper and lower invaginations. Fig. 6a is a schematic diagram of a second screen with upper and lower inner folding screens according to an embodiment of the present application. When the user performs the operation of the video application on the first screen (b "c") and the second screen (a "screen) receives the new message of the chat application, as shown in fig. 6a, the user feels the new message vibration reminding, and the user can perform double-click operation on the second screen (a" screen) with fingers to determine to transfer the new message to the first screen (b "c") for display.

Fig. 6b is a schematic view of a first screen with upper and lower inner folding screens according to an embodiment of the present application. After the user performs double-click operation on the second screen (a ' screen) with a finger, as shown in fig. 6b, the new message is transferred to the first screen (b ' c ' screen) being used by the user for display, and after the new message is transferred to the first screen, the new message is directly covered and displayed on the currently used video application in a form of popping up a floating window, and when the new message processing is completed by the user, the floating window can be closed.

It can be understood that the information display method provided by the embodiment of the application is not limited to be applied to the above-mentioned scenes, for example, the method can also be applied to a scene that a user waits for a car while watching a video when waiting for a car at a station, a video interface is displayed on a first screen, at this time, the car arrives at the station, the electronic equipment receives a reminding message for reminding the user to swipe the card to get in the station and sends out a vibration reminding, the user performs a clicking operation on a second screen, the reminding message is transferred to the first screen for displaying, and the user sits on the car to get in the station. The information display method provided by the embodiment of the application can be used in a scene that a user uses a plurality of application programs on the electronic equipment at the same time, and the embodiment of the application does not limit the application scene.

In some embodiments, when the first screen displays the new message of the background application, the new message of the background application may be expanded on the first screen in a first expansion direction, where the first expansion direction may correspond to a direction of gesture operation of a user on the second screen. Further, the first unfolding direction corresponding to the operation direction of the gesture operation may be the same as or opposite to the first unfolding direction.

For example, the user may slide up, down, left, and right while performing gesture interaction on the second screen. In order to present a better display effect, the first unfolding direction can be opposite to the gesture operation direction, so that an effect that a new message slides out of a rear screen and then slides into a front screen along the gesture operation direction is created. The following description will take various folding screens as examples.

Example one: aiming at the situation that the electronic equipment comprises an inward folding screen, when the electronic equipment is unfolded and used, the bc screen is opposite to the a screen, a user uses the bc screen, a background application receives a new message, the received new message is displayed on the a screen, the new message is displayed in the form of a popup prompt box on the a screen, and after the user interacts with the fingers on the a screen, the new message is displayed on the bc screen and is displayed in the form of a popup suspension window.

When the first unfolding direction is opposite to the gesture operation direction of the user, if the gesture of the finger on the screen a slides upwards, the floating window of the new message is unfolded downwards from the top on the screen bc in the unfolded state from the view of the user. If the gesture of the finger on the screen a is downward sliding, the floating window of the new message is unfolded from the bottom to the top on the screen bc in the unfolded state. If the gesture of the finger on the screen a is left sliding, the floating window of the new message is unfolded from left to right on the screen bc in the unfolded state. When the gesture of the finger on the screen a is to slide right, the floating window of the new message is unfolded from right to left on the screen bc in the unfolded state.

Referring to fig. 7a to fig. 7d, fig. 7a to fig. 7d are schematic diagrams illustrating gesture operations of an invaginated screen according to an embodiment of the present application, in fig. 7a, when a finger slides upward on a gesture of an a screen, a floating window of a new message is unfolded from top to bottom on a bc screen in an unfolded state. In fig. 7b, when the finger gesture on screen a is a downward swipe, the hover window for the new message expands from bottom up on the bc screen in the expanded state. In fig. 7c, when the gesture of the finger on the a-screen is sliding leftwards, since the a-screen is on the back of the bc-screen and the user looks at the bc-screen, the gesture of the finger on the a-screen is actually sliding rightwards from the user's line of sight, and thus the floating window of the new message is spread out leftwards from right on the bc-screen in the spread-out state. In fig. 7d, when the finger gesture on the a-screen is sliding to the right, the floating window of the new message is spread out from the left to the right on the bc-screen in the spread-out state, since the a-screen is on the back of the bc-screen, the finger gesture on the a-screen is actually sliding to the left as seen from the user's line of sight.

Example two: aiming at the situation that the electronic equipment comprises an outward folding screen, when the electronic equipment is folded and used, the a ' screen is opposite to the b ' screen, when a user uses the b ' screen, the background application receives a new message, the new message is displayed on the a ' screen in a form of a popup prompt box, after the user interacts with fingers on the a ' screen, the new message is displayed on the b ' screen in a form of a popup suspension window, and the new message is displayed on the b ' screen in a form of a suspension window.

When the first unfolding direction is the same as the gesture operation direction of the user, if the gesture of the finger on the screen a 'is sliding upwards, a floating window of the new message is unfolded upwards from the bottom on the screen b'. If the finger gesture on the a 'screen is a downward swipe, the hover window for the new message expands from the top down on the b' screen. If the gesture of the finger on the a 'screen is sliding left, the floating window of the new message is unfolded from left to right on the b' screen because the a 'screen is on the back and the gesture is sliding right in fact from the user's line of sight. If the gesture of the finger on the a ' screen is sliding to the right, the floating window of the new message is unfolded from the right to the left on the b ' screen because the a ' screen is on the back and the gesture is sliding to the left from the view of the user.

It may be understood that the direction of expansion of the new message corresponds to the direction of the gesture operation of the user is not limited to the same or opposite manner, and other manners are also possible, so the embodiment of the present application does not limit the manner in which the first direction of expansion corresponds to the direction of the gesture operation of the user on the second screen.

In some embodiments, when the electronic device is foldable, the detecting the first operation of the user in step 103 may further be: an operation of unfolding and folding the electronic device by the user is detected, or an operation of folding and unfolding the electronic device by the user is detected.

Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of an operation of an inner folding screen user according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 8, when an electronic device with an inner folding screen is in an unfolded state, and a user bc screen receives a new message of a background application when operating a current application, the user may fold the electronic device by a certain angle and then unfold the electronic device, for example, by about 30 degrees, and at this time, the new message of the background application is displayed on the bc screen.

Similarly, when the electronic device with the external folding screen is in a folded state, the user receives a new message of the background application when operating the screen a ', and the user can unfold the electronic device by a certain angle and then fold the electronic device, for example, about 30 degrees, and at this time, the new message of the background application is displayed on the screen a'.

In some embodiments, the detecting the first operation of the user in step 103 may further be: the detection of a user flip is turned back to operation of the electronic device.

Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of an operation of turning an inner folding screen by a user according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 9, when an electronic device with an inner folding screen is in an unfolded state (bc screen), a new message of a background application is received, and the user can turn the electronic device over a certain angle as a whole and turn back, at this time, the new message of the background application is displayed on the bc screen.

In some embodiments, upon receipt of a new message for a background application, the user may not want to view the new message on the first screen, but rather want to view the new message directly on the second screen. For convenience of the user, the displaying the new message of the background application on the second screen may include: and when the fact that the turning angle of the electronic equipment turned by the user exceeds a preset angle and the sight of the user aiming at the second screen is detected, displaying a new message of the background application on the second screen.

When the display directions of the first screen and the second screen are opposite, the user switches to the second screen to watch the new information of the background application, the electronic device needs to trigger the second screen to display, the triggering condition that the user turns over the electronic device is detected, the turning angle exceeds the preset angle, and the camera arranged through the second screen detects the sight of the user. The method can accurately detect that the sight line of the user is switched to the second screen so as to trigger the second screen to start displaying.

Illustratively, when an electronic device with an invaginated screen is in an expanded state, the electronic device may detect a spatial flip of the electronic device with a gyroscope while the user views the bc screen, and when the flip exceeds a certain value (e.g., 90 degrees), the user is considered to have flipped the electronic device. Meanwhile, the camera of the mobile phone positioned on the screen a detects the sight of the user, and if the sight of the user can be detected, the user is considered to have the intention of using the screen a, and the display of the screen a is started.

Fig. 10 is a schematic diagram of displaying a new message on a second screen according to an embodiment of the present application, where, as shown in fig. 10, when a user turns to view the second screen, an electronic device detects that the turning angle of the electronic device exceeds a preset angle, and when a camera of the first screen collects the line of sight of the user, the second screen displays a new message applied in the background.

Further, when the new message of the background application includes a plurality of pieces, displaying the new message of the background application on the second screen may include: and displaying the new message of the background application in the form of a message list on the second screen, or displaying the new message of the background application triggered recently on the second screen.

It should be noted that, when a plurality of messages are received at the background application, a new message displayed at the second screen may be presented in the form of a message list, and for this message list, the user clicks a corresponding single message, and the single message may be presented in the form of a pop-up floating window or a pop-up frame. It is also possible to display only the newly triggered new message, i.e. the newly received new message, on the screen of the second screen. For example, if a plurality of applications are running in the background, such as navigation, chat, telephone and short message, the recently triggered applications are ranked according to the last time of triggering the applications, new messages of the recently triggered applications are displayed first when the recently triggered applications are displayed on the second screen, and other background applications are ranked in sequence. The method solves the problem that the second screen cannot be properly triggered in the state that one screen is used, and the interface of the newly triggered application can be displayed on the second screen in a natural mode that a user turns over.

In another life scene, a user often uses an intelligent device to simultaneously perform two or more tasks, when the user needs to view a background task under the condition of using a direct board machine, the user can switch programs, or part of programs can provide a floating window for viewing, but the user can interrupt the current experience of the user when switching programs, and the information provided by the floating window is not detailed enough. In order to improve the experience of users, a method is provided on electronic equipment with multiple screens, so that users can more conveniently check programs running in the background, and the method is a problem to be solved in the current urgent need.

Fig. 11 is a flowchart of an information display method provided by an embodiment of the present application, where, as shown in fig. 11, the method is applied to an electronic device, and the electronic device includes at least two screens, where the at least two screens include a first screen and a second screen, and the first screen and the second screen are opposite, and the method may include:

step 201: and detecting a second operation of the user on the second screen when the first screen displays the interface of the current application.

Step 202: and responding to the second operation, and switching the interface of the background application to the first screen display.

It should be noted that the second operation performed by the user on the second screen may be performed in many manners, for example, the user may click, double click, gesture operation, etc., and the method of the second operation performed by the user is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. When the user views the interface of the current application on the first screen, the user wants to view the interfaces of other background applications, and can operate on the second screen so as to switch the interfaces of the background applications to the first screen for display.

In some embodiments, the detecting the second operation of the user on the second screen may be: gesture operation of the user on the second screen is detected. When the electronic device detects gesture operation of the user on the second screen, it can be determined that the user wants to display the background application on the first screen, so that an interface of the background application is displayed on the first screen.

In some embodiments, when the first screen displays the interface of the current application, an interface of a background application may also be displayed on the second screen.

It should be noted that, displaying the interface of the background application on the second screen may facilitate the user to directly view the interface of the background application on the second screen, without the need for the user to switch the interface to the first screen for display, which is more convenient for some users who do not like to switch applications.

Fig. 12a is a schematic diagram of a second screen of an invaginated screen according to an embodiment of the present application, where, as shown in fig. 12a, when a user performs an operation of a current application on a first screen, the second screen displays an interface of a background chat application, and when the user wants to view the background chat application on the first screen, the user may determine, by performing a gesture operation on the second screen of the electronic device, to transfer the interface of the background application to the first screen for display, for example: the user can slide with a finger on the second screen and the interface of the background application is transferred to the first screen display at which the eyes are gazing.

Fig. 12b is a schematic view of a first screen of an invaginated screen according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 12b, after a user performs a gesture operation on a second screen, an interface of a background chat application is transferred to the first screen to be displayed in a floating window form.

In some embodiments, the switching the interface of the background application to the first screen display may be that the interface of the background application is expanded on the first screen in a second expansion direction, where the second expansion direction corresponds to a direction of gesture operation of the user on the second screen.

Further, when the user performs gesture interaction on the second screen, the user may slide upward, downward, leftward and rightward, and in order to present a better display effect, the second unfolding direction may be the same as or opposite to the operation direction of the gesture operation.

In the following, the manner in which the background application is deployed on the second screen will be described by taking the folded-in screen as an example. Aiming at the situation that the electronic equipment comprises an inward folding screen, when the electronic equipment is unfolded and used, the bc screen is opposite to the a screen, when a user uses the bc screen, the user wants to check the situation of the background application, when the user operates on the a screen through gestures, the interface of the background application is displayed on the bc screen, the interface of the background application is displayed in a pop-up floating window mode, namely, the interface of the background application is displayed in the form of the floating window on the bc screen.

When the second unfolding direction is opposite to the gesture operation direction, when the gesture of the finger on the screen a slides upwards, the floating window of the background application is unfolded from the top to the center on the screen bc in the unfolded state. When the finger gesture on screen a is a downward swipe, the floating window of the background application expands from bottom to center on the bc screen in the expanded state. When the gesture of the finger on the screen a is sliding leftwards, the finger slides rightwards when the finger is seen on the screen a from the line of sight of the user, and a floating window of the background application is unfolded from the right side to the center on the screen bc in an unfolded state. When the gesture of the finger on the screen a is to slide right, the finger slides leftwards when the finger is seen on the screen a from the line of sight of the user, and a floating window of the background application is unfolded from the left side to the center on the screen bc in an unfolded state.

In some embodiments, to facilitate the operation of the user on the background application, the switching the interface of the background application to the first screen display includes: and switching the interface of the background application to the first screen to display in a floating window mode.

In some embodiments, when the second screen is not operated by the user for more than a preset time, the method may further include: and controlling the second screen to enter a screen-extinguishing state.

In some embodiments, when the second screen is in a rest state and the first screen is opposite the second screen, the method may further include: and when the fact that the turning angle of the electronic equipment turned by the user exceeds a preset angle and the sight of the user aiming at the second screen is detected, displaying the interface of the background application on the second screen.

In some embodiments, when the background application includes a plurality of the background applications, the displaying the background application on the second screen may include: and displaying the recently triggered background application on the second screen.
