Detailed Description

The following description of the embodiments of the present application will be made clearly and fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is evident that the embodiments described are only some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be made by one of ordinary skill in the art without undue burden from the present disclosure, are within the scope of the present disclosure.

In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "first," "second," and the like are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. In the description of the present application, it is to be understood that the terms "comprise" and "have," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, unless otherwise specifically defined and defined. For example, a process, method, system, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of steps or elements is not limited to only those listed steps or elements but may include other steps or elements not listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. The specific meaning of the terms in this application will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art in a specific context. Furthermore, in the description of the present application, unless otherwise indicated, "a plurality" means two or more. "and/or", describes an association relationship of an association object, and indicates that there may be three relationships, for example, a and/or B, and may indicate: a exists alone, A and B exist together, and B exists alone. The character "/" generally indicates that the context-dependent object is an "or" relationship.

In the related art, terminals such as mobile phones and tablet computers are mainly limited by the fact that the display of a small screen is smaller, so that application icons capable of being displayed on a desktop are fewer, although the problem of containing a plurality of applications is solved through a folder management mode, no matter how the folder display specification of the large folder is larger than that of a system application icon, the application icon display specification in the large folder is usually slightly smaller than that of the system application icon display specification, the application icons in the large folder do not display application name characters when displayed on the desktop, or the folder display specification of the small folder is usually equal to that of the system application icon display specification, the application icon display specification in the small folder is far smaller than that of the system application icon display specification, and the application icons in the small folder do not display application name characters when displayed on the desktop, because the folder display specification of the large folder is larger than that the application icons are contained in one folder, the phenomenon that the application icon density is higher is certainly generated, objective factors such as the icon display specification is lower than that the system application icons display specification, the icons are smaller and the distance is smaller, and the like are easier for a user, and the usual operation efficiency is higher than that the user operation efficiency (the user needs to click the application icons in a certain folder to be displayed in a certain folder or the folder when the user needs to be clicked by the user icon display of the application icons). In addition, because the proportion of large files is large (the size of two rows of desktop normal icons is usually large), the desktop icon typesetting and icon ordering are easy to be disordered, and the existing application ordering is disordered.

Therefore, there is a limit to desktop application management in the related art, and an effective method is needed to at least solve at least one of the above phenomena of misoperation of the user, low operation efficiency of the user, and disordered desktop arrangement caused by folders.

One or more embodiments of the present disclosure provide an application group processing method, which can improve or even completely solve at least one of the above phenomena, and by constructing an application group manner completely different from a folder form in the related art, the application group manner has a more flexible and free characteristic, and can at least help a user to improve the operation efficiency and the use experience of desktop application, and at the same time avoid confusion of desktop arrangement.

The present application is described in detail with reference to specific examples.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, an application group processing method is specifically proposed, which may be implemented in dependence on a computer program and may be run on an application group processing device based on von neumann system.

The number of the application group modules can be multiple, the application group modules can accommodate a plurality of first application icons, and the first icon display specification corresponding to each first application icon in the application group is the same as the system application icon display specification;

the first icon display specification corresponding to the first application icon is the same as the system application icon display specification, which can be understood that the first icon display size corresponding to the first application icon is the same as the system application icon display size, that the first icon display style corresponding to the first application icon is the same as the system application icon display style, and so on, and optionally, each first application icon in the application group module displays an application name character corresponding to the first application icon according to the system application icon display style when the desktop is displayed.

Specifically, by selecting a plurality of first application icons of a group in the desktop application, storing the first application icons corresponding to all the first application icons into an application group in a manner of arranging the first application icons into a group, wherein the application group is characterized by an application group module, the application group module can be an application group container, the first application icons in the application group module group can be set by user definition, for example, the application group module is configured by grouping the same type of application icons on the desktop in groups, for the application group module, the application icons displayed on the desktop are usually designated number, when the number of the first application icons is larger than the designated number, only second application icons smaller than or equal to the designated number are selected on the desktop for display, and for the rest of the first application icons except for the first application icons, the rest of the first application icons can be triggered to update and display by the terminal in the application container (namely, the application group module) through operation modes such as sliding operation, page turning operation, clicking operation and the like, so as to be used by the user to view the rest of the application icons. On the other hand, the application group module can also accommodate enough application icons while taking the convenience and the operation of a user into account, and an intelligent, efficient and man-machine-friendly application icon management mode is realized, so that the desktop is tidier and easier to operate;

The following explanation is given to the creation process of the application group module, and the terminal may create the application group module in response to a fourth operation input by the user.

The fourth operation may be understood as an operation for creating an application group module input by the user.

For example, the user may complete the application group creation module by using a voice input manner to create an application group instruction, the user may trigger an intelligent voice assistant of the terminal, the voice input of the application group creation instruction may analyze the application group creation instruction, determine all first applications selected by the user, and then the application group creation module adds all first application icons into the application group module in groups.

Optionally, the terminal may create the application group module in response to a fourth operation input by the user in the following manner: the fourth operation may include a second desktop editing operation and a first selecting operation to complete the new application group module and add all the first application icons selected by the user to the application group module

1. Responding to a second desktop editing operation input on the desktop, and entering a desktop editing mode;

the second desktop editing operation is an operation of entering a desktop editing mode input by a user, under the condition that the grouping function aiming at an application group module is compatible in the desktop editing mode, the user can customize an application group and select all first applications in the group in the desktop editing mode, and specifically, the user selects first application icons to group by inputting corresponding operations;

The desktop editing mode is a functional mode provided and maintained by the terminal and used for editing and managing new, adding, deleting, modifying, adjusting positions and the like of the application group model.

Alternatively, the second desktop editing operation may be a touch operation, a voice operation, a physical key operation, or the like.

For example, the second desktop editing operation may be a desktop long press operation, where the user long presses the desktop to input the desktop long press operation to the terminal, and the terminal responds to the desktop long press operation to enter a desktop editing mode, where all application icons on the desktop are in an editing state;

2. and responding to a first selection operation aiming at a first application icon, creating an application group module and adding the first application icon into the application group module.

For example, referring to fig. 2, a scenario diagram of a new application group module may be referred to as fig. 2, when a user wants to set up an application group module for a plurality of applications, the user may input a second desktop editing operation in the desktop shown in (a) diagram in fig. 2, for example, the user may press the desktop for a long time to input the second desktop editing operation to the terminal, enter a desktop editing mode in response to the second desktop editing operation, the desktop diagram after the terminal enters the desktop editing mode is shown in (b) diagram in fig. 2, in the desktop editing mode, all application icons on the surface are in an editing state, and each application icon has a circular icon (the circular icon includes a hook element) that can be selected by the user), the user may select one or more first application icons as a storage application of the present group, in response to the first application icon (b) shown in fig. 2, in response to the first application icon (C) shown in fig. 2, the user may select one or more first application icons (the group 3 is selected by the user) in response to the first application icon (b) shown in fig. 2, the selected 3 first application icons are displayed as a marker and grouped for viewing by the user with respect to the "figure (b) of fig. 2" in the "figure (C) of fig. 2". Specifically, the terminal responds to a first selection operation of a user for a first application icon, establishes an application group module and adds the selected first application icon into the application group module;

Further, as shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 is an interface schematic diagram of a new application group module, after the terminal completes the new application group module and adds the first application icon to the application group module, a display effect interface as shown in fig. 3 may be presented to the user, and the user may input a man-machine operation to exit the desktop editing mode, or the terminal exits the desktop editing mode when the user does not perform any operation on the application icon and the displayed application group module for a long time (e.g., within x seconds) so as to complete the desktop editing.

In a possible implementation manner, the operation of opening the icon application may also be referred to as a first operation, which is a first operation that the user directly outputs a certain second application icon in the application group module, where the terminal responds to the first operation of the user for the second application icon in the application group module to display a second application interface corresponding to the second application icon, that is, the second application icon is an application icon displayed in an application group display area of the screen display interface;

In a possible implementation manner, the operation of the view group, which is not displayed on the current interface, may be also referred to as a second operation, because the application group module may receive more first application icons, and the second application icons that can be displayed on the desktop are limited, the second application icons are generally displayed according to a certain in-group application arrangement sequence, and the rest of the application icons except for the second application icons in the first application icons may be checked by the user through inputting the second operation, such as the second operation forms of the application group icon sliding operation, the application group icon page turning operation, and the like, where the rest of the application icons except for the second application icons in the first application icons are checked, and at this time, the terminal responds to the second operation input by the user for the first application icons in the application module, and sequentially displays the first application icons based on the in-group arrangement sequence of the first application icons;

in a possible implementation manner, the operation of adding the application in the group may also be referred to as a third operation, where the third operation is an operation of adding other application icons to the current application group module by the user, the terminal determines a third application icon corresponding to the third operation in response to the third operation for the application group module, and then adds the third application icon to the application group module;

In a possible implementation manner, the operation of inserting the folder into the group may also be referred to as a fifth operation, and the application group module architecture provided in the present disclosure may be compatible with folders in related technologies, by inputting the fifth operation, a user may select a target folder on the desktop to be added into the folder group module, and the terminal may respond to the fifth operation of the user on the application group module to obtain the target folder, and add the target folder into the application group module, where a display specification of the target folder corresponding to the target folder matches a display specification of a system application icon;

optionally, the matching of the target folder display specification corresponding to the target folder and the system application icon display specification may be that the target folder display specification corresponding to the target folder is the same as the system application icon display specification, the target folder display specification corresponding to the target folder is an integer multiple of the system application icon display specification, and so on.

In a possible implementation manner, the operation of adjusting the sequence of the application icons in the group may be referred to as an application group icon sequence adjustment operation, which may be understood that the user adjusts the arrangement sequence of some or all of the first application icons of the current application group module, and the terminal may determine the information of the application icons to be adjusted in response to the application group icon sequence adjustment operation for the application group module, and adjust the icons in the application group to be adjusted based on the information of the application icons to be adjusted.

In one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, an application group module is displayed on a desktop by a terminal device, where the application group module includes a plurality of stored first application icons, and a first icon display specification corresponding to each first application icon in an application group is the same as a system application icon display specification, and then application operation processing can be performed in response to an application group icon operation of the application group module by a user, and by setting the application group module and setting the first icon display specification corresponding to each first application icon in the application group module to be the same as a system application icon display specification, since the application group module controls the first icon display specification of the application icons in the application group module on the desktop to be the same as the system application icon display specification on the premise of taking into consideration the plurality of application icons, the desktop icon typesetting is neat and disordered without disturbing the application icon ordering, and can perform grouping management of multiple applications without newly increasing folders.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flow chart illustrating another embodiment of an application group processing method according to the present application.

Specific:

s202: determining an application group display area corresponding to an application group module on a desktop, and determining all first application icons corresponding to the application group module;

the first icon display specification corresponding to each first application icon in the application group module is the same as the system application icon display specification;

it is understood that S202-S204 may be understood as the process that the terminal executes the application group module on the desktop;

according to some embodiments, the number of the application group modules may be plural, the application group modules may receive a plurality of first application icons, and a first icon display specification corresponding to each first application icon in the application group is the same as a system application icon display specification;

specifically, when the terminal loads an interface of the desktop, the terminal determines an application group display area corresponding to the application group module on the desktop, and determines all first application icons corresponding to the application group module;

s204: displaying at least one second application icon in the application group display area with a second icon display specification;

the application group module comprises a plurality of first application icons, wherein the first application icons at least comprise second application icons displayed on a desktop; for the application group module, the number of the application icons displayed on the desktop is usually a designated number, when the number of the first application icons is larger than the designated number, only the second application icons smaller than or equal to the designated number are selected on the desktop to be displayed, and for the rest of the application icons except the first application icons in the first application icons, the rest of the application icons except the first application icons can be updated and displayed in the application container (namely the application group module) through operation modes such as sliding operation, page turning operation, clicking operation and the like, so that the rest of the application icons except the first application icons can be triggered and updated by the terminal for viewing by a user.

The second icon display specification is the same as the system application icon display specification, and the application group display area is larger than or equal to the default icon display area corresponding to all the second application icons.

Further, since the first icon display specification corresponding to each first application icon in the application group is the same as the system application icon display specification, the icon layout specification of the application group display area needs to be smaller than or equal to the desktop system application icon layout specification, for example, the desktop system application icon layout specification is "4*6": that is, the desktop system application icon horizontally accommodates 4 icons and vertically accommodates 6 icons, so that the horizontal icon specification of the application group display area is less than or equal to 4 icons, the vertical icon specification is less than or equal to 6 icons, that is, the icon layout specification of the application group display area is less than or equal to "4*6", for example, the icon layout specification of the application group display area may be "4*3", "3*3", and so on.

In one possible embodiment, the following may be used:

a2: acquiring the number of application group screen icons corresponding to the application group display area, and acquiring the number of first application icons corresponding to the first application icons;

The application group display area is configured with the application group module when the application group module is created, and when the interface of the desktop is loaded, the related application group module configuration information of the application group module can be acquired with the application group display area, the application group display area is determined from the application group module configuration information, and then the number of the application group screen icons which can be accommodated can be determined according to the application group display area, and the number of the first application icons corresponding to the application group module can be acquired.

A4: if the number of the application group screen icons is greater than or equal to the number of the first application icons, taking all the first application icons as second application icons, and displaying at least one second application icon in the application group display area according to a second icon display specification;

a6: and if the number of the application group screen icons is smaller than the number of the first application icons, determining second application icons of second application icons from the first application icons, and displaying at least one second application icon in the application group display area, wherein the number of the second application icons is smaller than or equal to the number of the application group screen icons.

For example, assuming that the number of the application group screen icons is x, the number of the first application icons is y, if x is smaller than y, the application group display area cannot accommodate all the first application icons, and the number n of the second application icons smaller than or equal to the number of the application group screen icons needs to be determined, that is, the n second application icons are displayed in the application group display area of the desktop.

Further, after the terminal finishes displaying the application group module on the desktop, the terminal can receive the application group icon operation of the user for the application group module, and the terminal responds to the application group icon operation for the application group module to perform application operation processing, and the following steps can be referred to specifically.

S206: responding to a first operation for a second application icon in the application group module, displaying a second application interface corresponding to the second application icon, wherein the second application icon is an application icon displayed in an application group display area of a screen display interface;

the first operation may be understood as a man-machine interaction operation input by the icon application corresponding to a certain second application icon in the application group module which the user desires to open.

The terminal responds to the first operation of the user for the second application icon in the application group module, and displays a second application interface corresponding to the second application icon.

S208: responding to a second operation for a first application icon in the application group module, and sequentially displaying the first application icon based on the arrangement sequence of the first application icon in the application group module;

the second operation can be understood as an operation of checking that the current interface is not displayed in the group, because the application group module can accommodate more first application icons, the second application icons which can be displayed on the desktop are limited, the second application icons are usually displayed according to a certain in-group application arrangement sequence, and the rest of application icons except the second application icons in the first application icons can be checked by a user through inputting the second operation, such as the second operation modes of the sliding operation of the application group icons, the page turning operation of the application group icons and the like, at this time, the terminal responds to the second operation input by the user for the first application icons in the application module, and sequentially displays the first application icons based on the in-group arrangement sequence of the first application icons;

for example, referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic view of a sliding application group module, in fig. 5 (a), the application group module belongs to an entire row group, in fig. 5 (a), the application group module displays 4 second application icons on a desktop in rows, the number of first application icons included in the application group module is greater than 4, and a user can view the rest of application icons except for the second application icons in the first application icons by inputting a second operation-application group icon left-right sliding operation; fig. 5 (b): the application group module belongs to an integral group, 4 second application icons are displayed on a desktop in a row by the application group module, the number of first application icons contained in the application group module is larger than 4, a user can check other application icons except the second application icons in the first application icons by inputting second operation-up-down sliding operation of the application group icons, and in the process, the terminal responds to the second operation input by the user for the first application icons in the application module and sequentially displays the application icons based on the arrangement sequence in the group of the first application icons;

The application further provides a computer program product, where at least one instruction is stored, where the at least one instruction is loaded by the processor and executed by the processor, where the specific execution process may refer to the specific description of the embodiment shown in fig. 1 to 13, and details are not repeated herein.

Referring to fig. 15, a block diagram of an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. An electronic device in the present application may include one or more of the following components: processor 110, memory 120, input device 130, output device 140, and bus 150. The processor 110, the memory 120, the input device 130, and the output device 140 may be connected by a bus 150.

Processor 110 may include one or more processing cores. The processor 110 utilizes various interfaces and lines to connect various portions of the overall electronic device, perform various functions of the electronic device 100, and process data by executing or executing instructions, programs, code sets, or instruction sets stored in the memory 120, and invoking data stored in the memory 120. Alternatively, the processor 110 may be implemented in at least one hardware form of digital signal processing (digital signal processing, DSP), field-programmable gate array (field-programmable gate array, FPGA), programmable logic array (programmable logic Array, PLA). The processor 110 may integrate one or a combination of several of a central processing unit (central processing unit, CPU), an image processor (graphics processing unit, GPU), and a modem, etc. The CPU mainly processes an operating system, a user interface, an application program and the like; the GPU is used for being responsible for rendering and drawing of display content; the modem is used to handle wireless communications. It will be appreciated that the modem may not be integrated into the processor 110 and may be implemented solely by a single communication chip.

The memory 120 may include a random access memory (random Access Memory, RAM) or a read-only memory (ROM). Optionally, the memory 120 includes a non-transitory computer readable medium (non-transitory computer-readable storage medium). Memory 120 may be used to store instructions, programs, code, sets of codes, or sets of instructions. The memory 120 may include a stored program area and a stored data area, wherein the stored program area may store instructions for implementing an operating system, which may be an Android (Android) system, including an Android system-based deep development system, an IOS system developed by apple corporation, including an IOS system-based deep development system, or other systems, instructions for implementing at least one function (such as a touch function, a sound playing function, an image playing function, etc.), instructions for implementing various method embodiments described below, and the like. The storage data area may also store data created by the electronic device in use, such as phonebooks, audiovisual data, chat log data, and the like.

Referring to FIG. 16, the memory 120 may be divided into an operating system space in which the operating system is running and a user space in which native and third party applications are running. In order to ensure that different third party application programs can achieve better operation effects, the operating system allocates corresponding system resources for the different third party application programs. However, the requirements of different application scenarios in the same third party application program on system resources are different, for example, under the local resource loading scenario, the third party application program has higher requirement on the disk reading speed; in the animation rendering scene, the third party application program has higher requirements on the GPU performance. The operating system and the third party application program are mutually independent, and the operating system often cannot timely sense the current application scene of the third party application program, so that the operating system cannot perform targeted system resource adaptation according to the specific application scene of the third party application program.

In order to enable the operating system to distinguish specific application scenes of the third-party application program, data communication between the third-party application program and the operating system needs to be communicated, so that the operating system can acquire current scene information of the third-party application program at any time, and targeted system resource adaptation is performed based on the current scene.

Taking an operating system as an Android system as an example, as shown in fig. 17, a program and data stored in the memory 120 may be stored in the memory 120 with a Linux kernel layer 320, a system runtime library layer 340, an application framework layer 360 and an application layer 380, where the Linux kernel layer 320, the system runtime library layer 340 and the application framework layer 360 belong to an operating system space, and the application layer 380 belongs to a user space. The Linux kernel layer 320 provides the underlying drivers for various hardware of the electronic device, such as display drivers, audio drivers, camera drivers, bluetooth drivers, wi-Fi drivers, power management, and the like. The system runtime layer 340 provides the main feature support for the Android system through some C/c++ libraries. For example, the SQLite library provides support for databases, the OpenGL/ES library provides support for 3D graphics, the Webkit library provides support for browser kernels, and the like. Also provided in the system runtime library layer 340 is a An Zhuoyun runtime library (Android run) which provides mainly some core libraries that can allow developers to write Android applications using the Java language. The application framework layer 360 provides various APIs that may be used in building applications, which developers can also build their own applications by using, for example, campaign management, window management, view management, notification management, content provider, package management, call management, resource management, location management. At least one application program is running in the application layer 380, and these application programs may be native application programs of the operating system, such as a contact program, a short message program, a clock program, a camera application, etc.; and may also be a third party application developed by a third party developer, such as a game-like application, instant messaging program, photo beautification program, etc.

Taking an operating system as an IOS system as an example, the programs and data stored in the memory 120 are shown in fig. 18, the IOS system includes: core operating system layer 420 (Core OS layer), core service layer 440 (Core Services layer), media layer 460 (Media layer), and touchable layer 480 (Cocoa Touch Layer). The core operating system layer 420 includes an operating system kernel, drivers, and underlying program frameworks that provide more hardware-like functionality for use by the program frameworks at the core services layer 440. The core services layer 440 provides system services and/or program frameworks required by the application, such as a Foundation (Foundation) framework, an account framework, an advertisement framework, a data storage framework, a network connection framework, a geographic location framework, a sports framework, and the like. The media layer 460 provides an interface for applications related to audiovisual aspects, such as a graphics-image related interface, an audio technology related interface, a video technology related interface, an audio video transmission technology wireless play (AirPlay) interface, and so forth. The touchable layer 480 provides various commonly used interface-related frameworks for application development, with the touchable layer 480 being responsible for user touch interactions on the electronic device. Such as a local notification service, a remote push service, an advertisement framework, a game tool framework, a message User Interface (UI) framework, a User Interface UIKit framework, a map framework, and so forth.

Among the frameworks illustrated in fig. 18, frameworks related to most applications include, but are not limited to: the infrastructure in core services layer 440 and the UIKit framework in touchable layer 480. The infrastructure provides many basic object classes and data types, providing the most basic system services for all applications, independent of the UI. While the class provided by the UIKit framework is a basic UI class library for creating touch-based user interfaces, iOS applications can provide UIs based on the UIKit framework, so it provides the infrastructure for applications to build user interfaces, draw, process and user interaction events, respond to gestures, and so on.

The manner and principle of implementing data communication between the third party application program and the operating system in the IOS system may refer to the Android system, which is not described herein.
