The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an application prompting method according to an exemplary embodiment. The application prompting method is applied to a terminal. As shown in FIG. 1 , the application prompting method includes the following steps.

In step 101, it is detected whether there is a preset application in the terminal, the preset application is an application that has not been started after installation, or the preset application is an application that has not been started after the update.

In step 102, if it is detected that a preset application exists in the terminal, the first desktop page where the display position of the identifier of the preset application is located is determined.

In step 103, the display mode of the indication point corresponding to the first desktop page in the desktop page indication area is set to the first display mode, the first display mode is different from the second display mode, and the second display mode is the desktop page indication area. a display mode of the indication point corresponding to the second desktop page, and the second desktop page is a desktop page that does not include the identifier of the preset application.

In summary, the application prompting method provided by the present disclosure determines that the first desktop page where the display position of the identifier of the preset application is located when the preset application exists in the terminal is detected, and the preset application is not started after the installation. The application that is used, or the preset application is an application that has not been activated after the update; the display mode of the pointing point corresponding to the first desktop page in the desktop page indication area is set to the first display mode, the first display mode and the second display mode The display mode is different, the second display mode is a display mode of the indication point corresponding to the second desktop page in the desktop page indication area, and the second desktop page is a desktop page that does not include the identifier of the preset application, so that the user sees When the indication point is displayed in the first display mode, it is determined that the identifier of the preset application is displayed in the first desktop page corresponding to the indication point, thereby guiding the user to start the preset application, and the user is forgotten to start the preset application, thereby causing the preset application. The problem that the activation rate is low and the storage space utilization thereof is low is low, and the effect of improving the activation rate of the application and the utilization of the storage space is achieved.

2A is a flowchart of an application prompting method, which is applied to a terminal. As shown in FIG. 2A, the application prompting method includes the following steps, according to another exemplary embodiment.

In step 201, it is detected whether there is a preset application in the terminal, the preset application is an application that has not been started after installation, or the preset application is an application that has not been started after the update.

The detecting whether there is a preset application in the terminal includes: reading, by using a preset interface, startup information of each application in the terminal, and the startup information is used to record the number of startups of each application after installation or after updating; It is determined that the application has a preset application in the terminal when the startup information of the application is zero after the installation or after the update.

After the terminal installs or updates the application, the startup information of the application is recorded, and therefore, the terminal The startup information of the record can be read directly through the preset interface, and then according to the startup information, it can be determined whether there is a preset application in the terminal. In the implementation, the terminal may filter the startup information with the number of startups from all the startup information, and determine the application corresponding to each of the selected startup information as the preset application.

The terminal may determine, as a preset application, an application that has not been started after the current installation or the update after every predetermined time interval, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In step 202, if it is detected that a preset application exists in the terminal, the first desktop page where the display position of the identifier of the preset application is located is determined.

The identifier of the preset application is an identifier that is displayed in the desktop page after the preset application is installed in the terminal, and may include an icon, a name, and other information, which is not limited in this embodiment. The identifier of the preset application is a startup entry of the preset application.

The desktop page is used to display the identity of each application installed in the terminal, so that when the user triggers the identity of an application, the terminal starts the application.

Since the newly installed application is usually placed on the last desktop page, when the default application is an application that has not been launched after installation, the first desktop page is the last desktop page when the application is installed; when the default application is When an application that has not been launched is updated, since the update application does not change the display position of the application's logo, the first desktop page is the desktop page where the application is currently located. For example, the last desktop when the terminal installs the application is desktop page 2. If the user does not move the identifier of the application to another desktop page, the first desktop page is desktop page 2, and if the user moves the identifier of the application to In desktop page 1, the first desktop page is desktop page 1.

After determining the first desktop page, the terminal may also determine the remaining desktop page as the second desktop page. For example, if the terminal includes three desktop pages, and the display position of the identifier of the preset application is in the desktop page 3, the terminal determines the desktop page 3 as the first desktop page, and determines the desktop page 1 and the desktop page 2 as the second. Desktop page.

In step 203, the display mode of the indication point corresponding to the first desktop page in the desktop page indication area is set to the first display mode, the first display mode is different from the second display mode, and the second display mode is the desktop page indication area. a display mode of the indication point corresponding to the second desktop page, and the second desktop page is a desktop page that does not include the identifier of the preset application.

The desktop page indication area includes indication points, and each indication point corresponds to one desktop page. As an embodiment, the indication point corresponding to the currently displayed desktop page may be different from the indication point corresponding to the currently undisplayed desktop page. For example, if the terminal includes five desktop pages, five pointing points arranged in the order of the desktop pages are displayed in the desktop page display area, and if the terminal currently displays the desktop page 1, the first one The transparency of the indicator point is low, and the transparency of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th indicator points is high; when the terminal switches the currently displayed desktop page from the desktop page 1 to the desktop page 2, the transparency of the first indicator point is higher. Low, the first, third, fourth, and fifth indicator points have higher transparency.

The difference between the first display mode and the second display mode means that the first display mode is different from at least one of the graphics, the size, the number, and the color of the indication points in the second display mode. For example, the graphic of the indication point in the first display mode is a star shape, and the graphic of the indication point in the second display mode is a circle; and/or, the color of the indication point in the first display mode is yellow, and the indication in the second display mode The color of the dot is white; and/or, the graphic size of the pointing point in the first display mode is larger than the graphic indicating the pointing point in the second display mode; and/or, the indicating point in the first display mode is one, and the second The indication points in the display mode are two; and so on. Please refer to FIG. 2B , in which the graphic of the indicated point in the first display mode is a star shape, and the graphic of the indicated point in the second display mode is a circular shape as an example for description.

In step 204, a first triggering operation for jumping to the first desktop page is received, and jumping to the first desktop page according to the first triggering operation.

In this embodiment, when the terminal receives the first triggering operation for jumping to the first desktop page, the terminal jumps to the first desktop page according to the first triggering operation.

The first triggering operation may be a click operation on the indication point corresponding to the first desktop page, or may be a sliding operation on the desktop page, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In step 205, when the preset application is not classified into the desktop folder, the first prompt animation is played in the first area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of the preset application in the first desktop page, and the first prompt animation is used. Prompt the user to launch the preset application.

When there are many applications in the terminal, the user can also create a desktop folder on the desktop, and classify multiple similar applications into one desktop folder. For example, a user sorts multiple apps in a shopping class into a "shopping" desktop folder.

When the preset application is not classified into the desktop folder, the terminal displays the identifier of the preset application when displaying the first desktop page.

Optionally, the terminal may also play the first prompt animation in the first area corresponding to the display position of the identifier when displaying the identifier of the preset application. The first area is an area that is smaller than the preset threshold by the display position of the identifier. For example, the first area may be an upper right corner area, a lower right corner area, and the like of the preset application, which is not limited in this embodiment. .

In one possible implementation, the first cue animation is an animation in which stars appear and disappear, please refer to FIG. 2C. This embodiment does not limit the playing content of the first prompt animation.

In this embodiment, the terminal may further determine different first prompt animations for the preset application according to whether the preset application is an application that has not been started after installation or an application that has not been activated after the update. For example, the terminal sets a first type of animation for an application that has not been launched after installation, and sets a second type of animation for an application that has not been launched after the update; when the preset application is an application that has not been launched after installation, the terminal will be the first One type of animation is used as the first prompt animation; when the preset application is an application that has not been launched after the update, the terminal uses the second type of animation as the first prompt animation. In this way, the diversity of the first prompt animation can be expanded, and the user can directly determine, according to the first prompt animation, whether the preset application is an application that has not been started after installation or an application that has not been activated after the update.

When the terminal plays the first animation, the user will pay attention to the preset application, thereby guiding the user to start the preset application, which can improve the probability that the user starts the preset application, thereby improving the activation rate of the preset application and the utilization of the storage space. rate. In addition, the user can also delete the preset application to reclaim storage space.

Optionally, the method provided in this embodiment further includes: when receiving a startup operation for starting the preset application, starting the preset application; when the first desktop page is displayed again, canceling the pre-preview in the first desktop page Set the playback of the prompt animation corresponding to the application.

After the preset application is activated, the preset application is converted to a normal application, and the terminal does not display the identifier of the preset application in the first desktop page again. Play the prompt animation again. That is, the terminal cancels the playback of the cue animation corresponding to the preset application in the first desktop page.

Optionally, the method provided in this embodiment further includes: when each preset application in the first desktop page is started, setting a display mode of the indication point corresponding to the first desktop page in the desktop page indication area to The second display mode.

After the preset application is started, the terminal further needs to detect whether the first desktop page is converted into a second desktop page, and when the first desktop page is converted into the second desktop page, the terminal further needs to display the desktop page with the The display mode of the indication point corresponding to the first desktop page is set to the second display mode; when the first desktop page is not converted to the second desktop page, the terminal does not modify the display mode of the indication point corresponding to the first desktop page.

In step 206, when the preset application is classified into the desktop folder, the second prompt animation is played in the second area corresponding to the display position of the desktop folder in the first desktop page, and the second prompt animation is used to prompt the user. Open the desktop folder.

When the preset application is classified into the desktop folder, the terminal first displays the desktop folder and receives it. When you expand the operation of the desktop folder, the ID of the preset application in the desktop folder is displayed.

Optionally, the terminal may also play the second prompt animation in the second area corresponding to the display position of the desktop folder when the desktop folder is displayed. The second area is an area that is smaller than a preset threshold by the display position of the desktop folder. For example, the second area may be an upper right corner area, a lower right corner area, and the like of the icon of the desktop folder. Not limited. The second prompt animation may be the same as the first prompt animation, or may be different from the first prompt animation, which is not limited in this embodiment.

When the terminal plays the second animation, the user will pay attention to the desktop folder, thereby guiding the user to open the desktop folder, which can increase the probability that the user starts the preset application in the desktop folder, thereby improving the activation rate of the preset application. And the utilization of storage space.

In step 207, a second triggering operation is performed on the desktop folder, and the desktop folder includes identifiers of m preset applications and identifiers of n other activated applications, n≥0, m≥1.

The second triggering operation may be a click operation on the desktop folder.

In step 208, the desktop folder is expanded, and a third prompt animation is played in a third area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of the preset application, and the third prompt animation is used to prompt the user to start the preset application.

The terminal expands the desktop folder, which means that the terminal displays the identifiers of the preset applications and other applications that are started in the desktop folder in the interface of the desktop folder. When the terminal expands the desktop folder, the terminal displays the identifier of the application included in the desktop folder in the interface of the desktop folder. Please refer to FIG. 2D, which shows the identifiers of the four applications "Weather", "Camera", "Compass" and "Browser" included in the "Tools" desktop folder.

When the number of applications included in the desktop folder is large, only one of the applications may be displayed in one interface, and the identifiers of all the applications may not be displayed. At this time, the terminal may batch the interface in the desktop folder. The identifiers for these applications are shown in .

In an implementation manner, the terminal divides the identifiers of all applications included in the desktop folder into a plurality of pages, and displays the identifiers of the applications included in one page at a time in the interface of the desktop folders. Referring to FIG. 2D, one page of the "tool" in FIG. 2D can display the identification of 4 applications at most, and the "tool" includes the number of applications ∈ (4, 9), so the "tool" corresponds to two pages. In order to make the user clear which page of the desktop folder is currently displayed, the terminal may further set a paging indication area, the paging indication area includes a plurality of indication points, each indication point corresponds to one paging, as an example, the currently displayed paging The corresponding indication point is different from the transparency of the indication point corresponding to the currently not displayed page. The indication point corresponding to the page and the display mode thereof are the same as the indication point corresponding to the desktop page and the display mode thereof. For details, refer to the description in step 203.

In another implementation manner, the terminal adds the identifiers of all the applications included in the desktop folder to one page, and when the page cannot be completely displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, setting a slide bar on the page, and adjusting the sliding The position of the bar to adjust the identity of the app displayed in the interface of the desktop folder. For example, the interface of the desktop folder can display the identification of 4 applications, and the number of applications included in the “tool” is ∈ (4, 9), so the terminal first displays the identifiers of the first 4 applications in the “Tools” on the desktop. In the interface of the folder, when the user adjusts the slider downward, the terminal displays the identifier of the remaining application in the interface of the desktop folder.

Based on the deployment manner of the above desktop folder, the following describes the display manner of the identifier of the preset application.

When m=1, the desktop folder is expanded, and the third prompt animation is played in the third area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of the preset application, including:

1) when the identifier of the preset application is displayed in the interface of the expanded desktop folder, playing the third prompt animation in the third area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of the preset application;

2) When the identifier of the preset application is not displayed in the interface of the expanded desktop folder, the display position of the identifier of the preset application is located, and the third area is played in the third area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of the preset application. Prompt animation.

When the desktop folder includes an identifier of a preset application, the identifier of the preset application may be displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, or may not be displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, and the following two cases are respectively performed. Description.

When the identifier of the preset application is displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, that is, the identifier of the preset application is divided into the first paging, or the display position of the identifier of the preset application is ranked in the first one. The terminal directly displays the identifier of the preset application in the interface of the desktop folder. The process of playing the third prompt animation in the third area is the same as the process of playing the first prompt animation in the first area. For details, refer to the description in step 205, and details are not described herein.

When the identifier of the preset application is not displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, at this time, the user may need to adjust the page or slide bar to find the identifier of the preset application. Since the searching process is cumbersome and inefficient, or the user may not know that the desktop folder includes the identifier of the preset application, the preset application is not started. Therefore, the terminal can also directly locate the terminal. The display position of the identifier of the preset application, where the identifier of the preset application is displayed. The process of playing the third prompt animation in the third area is the same as the process of playing the first prompt animation in the first area. For details, refer to the description in step 205, and details are not described herein. For example, if the display position of the logo of the preset application is in the page 3, then When the user clicks on the desktop folder, the terminal directly displays the page 3 in the interface of the desktop folder, and displays the identifier of the preset application in the page 3; or, the display position of the identifier of the preset application is at the end, and the user clicks In the case of a desktop folder, the terminal directly adjusts the slider to the bottom position to display the logo of the preset application.

When m≥2, the desktop folder is expanded, and the third prompt animation is played in the third area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of the preset application, including:

1) when the identifiers of the m preset applications are displayed in the interface of the expanded desktop folder, the third prompt animation is played in the third area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of each preset application; When the identifiers of the k preset applications in the application are displayed in the interface of the expanded desktop folder, the third prompt is played in the third region corresponding to the display position of the identifier of each preset application in the k preset applications. Animation, and display prompts for the remaining mk preset applications in the interface of the desktop folder;

2) When the identifiers of the m preset applications are not displayed in the interface of the expanded desktop folder, the prompts for the m preset applications are displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, and the first for receiving the preset application is received. The third triggering operation plays a third prompt animation in a third area corresponding to the display position of the identifier of the preset application in the interface of the desktop folder according to the third triggering operation.

When the identifier of the m (m>2) preset applications is included in the desktop folder, the identifiers of the m preset applications may all be displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, or the identifiers of the k preset applications may be included therein. Displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, the identifiers of the remaining mk preset applications are not displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, and may not be displayed in the interface of the desktop folder. The following three cases are respectively described.

When the identifiers of the m preset applications are all displayed in the interface of the desktop folder, the terminal directly displays the identifiers of the m preset applications in the interface of the desktop folder, and corresponds to the display position of the identifier of each preset application. The third prompt animation is played in the third area. The process of playing the third prompt animation in the third area is the same as the process of playing the first prompt animation in the first area. For details, refer to the description in step 205, and details are not described herein.
