In the embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal receives the icon sorting adjustment instruction, and adjusts the positions of all the icons of the row to which the selected icon belongs to the operation area.

Specifically, when the user holds the mobile terminal with one hand, when the icon located at the corner of the display interface needs to be selected, the sequence adjustment gesture is used to trigger the icon sorting adjustment; here, the use of the sequence gesture is equivalent to the user sending the icon sorting adjustment instruction to the mobile terminal. After receiving the icon sorting adjustment instruction, the mobile terminal adjusts the position of all the icons of the line to which the selected icon belongs to the operation area. The ordering gesture may be: dragging any icon of the row to which the icon to be selected belongs to the lower left, dragging any icon of the row to which the icon to be selected belongs to the lower right, and dragging to the upper left needs to be selected. Any icon of the line to which the icon belongs, or drag one of the icons of the line to which the icon to be selected belongs to the upper right.

The position of all the icons of the line to which the icon to be selected belongs is adjusted to the operation area: the icon to be selected is located at the edge of the display interface and the side of the root of the thumb, and may be the nearest column from the side edge of the handheld mobile terminal. It may also be the closest column to the side edge of the handheld mobile terminal, and the like. In short, as long as the mobile terminal is held by one hand, the area to which the thumb can operate can be used as the operation area.

Preferably, after the icon is selected, the icon sorting is automatically restored to the pre-adjustment sorting; or, when there is no operation within the predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) after the adjustment icon is sorted, the icon sorting is automatically restored to the pre-adjustment sorting; , can facilitate the subsequent operations of mobile terminal users.

Preferably, whether to adjust the function mode of adjusting the icon sorting may be set in advance, and the function of adjusting the sorting of the icons may be turned on when needed; if the function of adjusting the sorting of the icons is turned on, the adjustment of the icon sorting may be triggered by using a specific gesture.

It should be noted that the mobile terminal described in the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to a smart phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), but also a music player such as an MP4 or an MP5. In other words, a mobile terminal having a touch screen and having a number of icon lines in the screen greater than the number of columns or having a function of inter-row rotation can be appropriately configured to adjust the method of sorting the icons of the mobile terminal according to the embodiment of the present invention, which should belong to the embodiment of the present invention. Protected mobile terminals are within range.

The technical solutions of the present invention are further elaborated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a basic processing flow of a method for adjusting an icon sorting of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 , the method includes the following steps:

Step 101: The mobile terminal receives an icon sorting adjustment instruction.

Here, using the sequence gesture is equivalent to the user sending an icon sorting adjustment instruction to the mobile terminal; Specifically, when the user holds the mobile terminal with one hand, when the icon located at the corner of the display interface needs to be selected, the order adjustment is triggered by using the sequence gesture.

The ordering gesture may be: dragging any icon of the row to which the icon to be selected belongs to the lower left, dragging any icon of the row to which the icon to be selected belongs to the lower right, and dragging to the upper left needs to be selected. Any icon of the line to which the icon belongs, dragging any icon of the line to which the icon to be selected belongs to the upper right.

Step 102: The mobile terminal adjusts the position of all the icons of the line to which the selected icon needs to be selected to the operation area.

The position of all the icons of the line to which the selected icon belongs is adjusted to the operation area: the icon to be selected is located at the edge of the display interface and the side of the root of the thumb, and may be the nearest column from the side edge of the handheld mobile terminal, or It is the closest column to the side edge of the handheld mobile terminal. In short, as long as the mobile terminal is held by one hand, the area where the icon operation can be completed can be used as the operation area.

In this embodiment, before step 101, the method may further include: setting a function mode for starting the adjustment icon sorting.

Specifically, the function of adjusting the sorting of the icons is turned on when needed; if the function of adjusting the sorting of the icons is turned on, the adjustment of the icon sorting can be triggered by using a specific gesture.

After the step 102, the method of the embodiment of the present invention further includes the step 103: automatically sorting the icons into the order before the adjustment.

Specifically, after the icon is selected, the icon can be automatically restored to the pre-adjustment sorting. Alternatively, when there is no operation within the predetermined time after the icon sequence is adjusted, the icon sorting is automatically restored to the pre-adjustment sorting.

The predetermined time after adjusting the icon sequence can be set in the timer according to the user's needs, such as 5 seconds, 10 seconds, and the like.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing a specific implementation process of adjusting a method for sorting an icon of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention; Intention, as shown in FIG. 2, when the right hand holds the mobile terminal and needs to select an icon located at the upper left corner of the display screen, adjusting the mobile terminal icon sorting method includes the following steps:

Step 201: The mobile terminal receives an icon sorting adjustment instruction.

Here, the icon sort adjustment instruction is sent to the mobile terminal by using the sequence gesture of dragging the icon to the lower left of the screen, and the icon sort adjustment function is triggered.
