Description

Terminal and application management method

Technical field

The present invention relates to the field of terminal management technologies, and in particular, to a terminal and an application management method. Background technique

At present, there are more and more types of applications in the terminal, but in real life, users may only need to install a certain type of application in a specific situation (such as a certain period of time). In other cases, such applications are not needed. If the user forgets to delete these applications, these applications will waste space on the user terminal for a long time. Once the user deletes these applications directly, the user may need to install the application under similar conditions in the future. At this time, the installation can only be repeated manually.

In response to the above issues, such as the World Cup schedule application, during the pre-World Cup and World Cup period, the application of the schedule is more valuable and can provide users with World Cup schedule information. However, when the World Cup is over, these applications often do not play much role.

Therefore, there is a need for a new application management technology that automatically determines the user's needs and installs or uninstalls the application, thereby enabling efficient management of the application, meeting user needs and rational use of terminal resources. Summary of the invention

The invention is based on the above problems, and proposes a new application management technology, which can automatically determine the user's needs and install or uninstall the application, thereby realizing effective management of the application, satisfying the user's use requirements and Rational use of terminal resources.

FIG. 3 shows a flow diagram of parameterizing an application in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 3, the process of parameter setting an application according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:

In step 302, the user needs to install an application.

Step 304: Determine whether it is the first time installation. This requires a separate record of each application each time an application is installed or uninstalled.

In the first case, it is installed for the first time, and the process proceeds to step 306, and the corresponding effective time interval is set according to the parameters input by the user in real time. You can also set the type of application, associated keywords, and more. The details are shown in Table 1.

Table 1

Each application and its corresponding parameters are stored in the form of a form in the corresponding database (local or cloud) of the terminal for query when needed.

In the second case, it is the first time installation, and in step 308, the type of the application is obtained, for example, the ticketing software belongs to the "Travel" type of application. Then, proceeding to step 310, when the number of applications in the terminal is large, the setting requires a lot of effort, and since the type of the application is determined, each type can be separately parameterized, and then batch implemented in the type. All the apps. Of course, the parameters corresponding to each type can be set in advance, and then the corresponding parameters are automatically called for each installed application, and the parameters corresponding to the type can be set or edited at any time, and then applied to the corresponding application. The details are shown in Table 2.

Table 2

In the third case, instead of installing for the first time, the process proceeds to step 312, where the stored parameters are obtained and used to set up the application. Specifically, when the same application is installed before (not necessarily identical, for example, the difference may be allowed in the version number, etc.), the corresponding parameter is set, and then the parameter is reserved when uninstalling, then At this time, when you install again, you can directly use the parameters that were previously saved.

4 shows a flow diagram of an uninstall application in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 4, the process of uninstalling an application according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: Step 402: Acquire a current time.

Step 404: Determine whether the current time is in a valid time interval, specifically, an effective time interval corresponding to an application or a certain type of application. If it is, the process ends. If not, proceed to step 406.

Step 406, prompting the user to uninstall the corresponding application. Of course, in one case, if the terminal has the corresponding authority, it can be uninstalled without a reminder.

Step 408: The user selects whether to uninstall the application. If yes, go to step 410, otherwise the process ends.

Step 410: Determine whether there is a personalized parameter for the application in the terminal, including an effective time interval for an application, a corresponding keyword, a category, and the like. If yes, go to step 412, otherwise go to step 414. Of course, for the second parameter setting method in FIG. 3, it is closer to the batch setting. When the setting is performed again, if the parameter for the type does not change, the obtained parameter for the application obviously does not change. Therefore, such parameters can be considered as not being personalized parameters. Of course, this can be set by the manufacturer or the user as needed.

Step 412: The personalization parameter is reserved. Specifically, the name of the application and the corresponding parameter may be stored in association according to the manner shown in Table 1.

Step 414, uninstall the application.

Figure 5 shows a flow diagram of an installation application in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 5, the process of installing an application according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: Step 502, monitoring a schedule, information, and the like.

Step 504: Determine whether the terminal has a keyword that matches the preset font. If yes, go to step 506, otherwise the process ends.

Step 506, specifically, for example, the method shown in Table 1 is used in the terminal, and the application program and corresponding parameters are stored. For example, if the word "World Cup" is detected in the schedule, the terminal will find the "World Cup Application" program according to the correspondence, and determine that the corresponding effective time interval is the closing date.

Step 508: Determine whether the current time is in the valid time interval. For example, if the current day (or set to advance for a certain period of time) is the start date of the World Cup, it is determined to be within the valid time interval, otherwise it is determined not to be.

Step 510: If it is in the valid time interval, install the application, such as installing the "World Cup Application" software. Step 512: Determine whether the personalized parameter of the application installed in step 510 is stored in the terminal, where the personalized parameter refers to that the terminal has previously installed the same application, and has performed personalized time intervals, keywords, and the like. The parameter settings, when uninstalling the application, store the corresponding personalized parameters in the terminal for direct use of these personalized parameters on the next installation. If yes, go to step 514, otherwise go to step 516. Of course, the absence of personalized parameters does not mean that the application must be installed for the first time, or it may be due to data loss.

Step 514, obtaining a personalized parameter.

Step 516: When there is no application personalization parameter corresponding to the newly installed application in the terminal, the setting is directly performed according to the input command of the user. Of course, it is also possible for the terminal to implement parameter setting of the application according to the type of the application, by using parameters corresponding to the type.

Step 518: Perform corresponding setting on the application by using the personalized parameters stored in the terminal or set in real time.

The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. In view of the fact that the management of the application in the related art cannot take into account the timeliness, the present invention provides a terminal and an application management method, which can automatically determine the user. The requirements, and the installation or uninstallation of the application, in order to achieve effective management of the application, to meet the user's needs and the rational use of terminal resources.
