图6是示出根据本发明示例性实施例的应用图标的显示设备的框图。
具体实施方式
下面参照附图详细描述本发明的实施例。
图1是示出根据本发明示例性实施例的应用图标的显示方法的流程图。根据本发明示例性实施例的应用图标的显示方法可适用于各种可显示应用图标的终端，例如，智能手机、个人计算机、平板电脑、游戏机、数字多媒体播放器等。
参照图1，在步骤S10，使得应用的图标进入动态模式。根据本发明示例性实施例的应用的图标在进入动态模式后，该应用的图标显示的内容可发生变化。
这里，可根据用户的操作或预定事件的发生来使得应用的图标进入动态模式。
作为示例，可接收将应用的图标设置为动态模式的第一设置操作，响应于第一设置操作将所述应用的图标设置为动态模式。图2示出根据本发明示例性实施例的应用的图标的动态模式设置界面。例如，可在终端的系统设置界面中设置用于进入所述动态模式设置界面的控件，当用户对所述用于进入所述动态模式设置界面的控件进行操作后，将进入如图2所示的应用的图标的动态模式设置界面。如图2所示，在动态模式设置界面中针对每个应用提供了用于进入和退出动态模式的开关201。在开关201处于关闭状态时，用户可点击所述开关201，使开关201进入开启状态，从而使开关201对应的应用的图标进入动态模式。在图2中，用户开启了天气应用、信息应用和S日历应用的开关201，上述三个应用的图标处于动态模式。
作为示例，还可响应于预定事件将应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，可响应于开机事件将预定应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，也可响应于应用被运行而将该应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，还可响应于应用中的预定功能被执行(例如开启了某个应用的消息推送功能)而将应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，还可响应于应用中的预定操作被执行(例如用于在某个购物应用中参加了抢购手机的活动)而将应用的图标设置为动态模式。
在步骤S20，确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。这里，所述显示模式可用于确定在所述应用的图标中显示的信息的类型和具体的显示方式。在一个实施例中，所述显示模式可包括以下至少一种：消息提醒模式、 推送模式、倒计时模式和自定义模式。然而，本发明不限于此，其他的显示模式也是可行的。
这里，可通过各种方式来确定所述显示模式。例如，可根据显示模式预设值、预设时间、预定事件或者用户对显示模式的选择操作，确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。
作为示例，可根据应用的图标的显示模式预设值来确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。这里，显示模式预设值用于指示显示模式。换言之，根据针对该应用预先设置好的显示模式预设值所指示的显示模式，来确定显示模式。例如，可根据应用的类型来预先设置应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。例如，对于社交类的应用(例如，通话应用、短信应用、微信应用、QQ应用、邮件应用等)，可预先设置该类应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式为消息提醒模式；对于新闻资讯类或购物类的应用，可预先设置该类应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式为推送模式；对于健身类或日程类的应用，可预先设置该类应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式为倒计时模式。
作为示例，还可根据预设时间来确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。具体说来，可预先设置应用的图标的动态模式在预设时间内的显示模式。例如，对于所述应用，可针对一个或多个时间段中的每个时间段来分别设置显示模式。
作为示例，还可根据预定事件来确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。所述事件可包括以下至少一种：系统事件、所述应用中发生的事件。这里，可预先设置预定事件与显示模式的关联关系，再根据发生的事件与所述关联关系来确定应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。例如，可将用户订阅某个应用的推送的事件与显示模式中的推送模式相关联，将用户参与某个应用中的秒杀活动的事件与显示模式中的倒计时模式相关联，等。相应地，在步骤S20可通过以下步骤来确定应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式：检测发生的事件；确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式之中是否存在与发生的事件相关联的显示模式；将与发生的事件相关联的显示模式确定为所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。
作为示例，还可根据用户对显示模式的选择操作确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。图3示出根据本发明示例性实施例的应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式的设置界面。可在图2所示的应用的图标的动态模式设置 界面中，针对每个应用设置用于进入每个应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式的设置界面图的控件，在用户对该控件进行操作后，将进入如图3所示的显示模式的设置界面，用户可在显示模式的设置界面图对的应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式进行设置，在图3中，用户将微信应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式设置为消息提醒模式。
在步骤S30，获取与确定的显示模式相应的信息。这里，与不同的显示模式相应的消息不同。
与消息提醒模式相应的信息可包括各种实时消息。所述实时消息是应用针对用户发送的各种通知类的消息。例如，对于社交类的应用(例如，通话应用、短信应用、微信应用、QQ应用、邮件应用等)，所述实时消息可以是未读信息、未接电话、未读邮件等；对于交通类的应用，所述实时消息可以是车辆到站信息；对于物流类的应用，所述实时消息可以是物流变化信息；对于金融类的应用，所述实时消息可以是实时消费信息；对于导航类的应用，所述实时消息可以是导航信息。此外，所述与消息提醒模式相应的信息还可包括进度信息，例如音乐类的应用中的歌曲播放进度，录音类的应用的录音时间、下载类应用的下载进度等。
与推送模式相应的信息包括推送消息。所述推送消息是应用服务商给用户推送的各种资讯类的消息。例如，所述推送消息可以是新闻、版本更新通知、促销活动消息、天气变化消息、用户订阅的推送等。
与倒计时模式相应的信息包括时间提醒信息。所述时间提醒信息是应用中的各种时间提醒信息，包括应用自动生成的时间提醒信息以及用户针对应用设置的时间提醒信息。例如，时间提醒信息包括下面中的至少一个：当前时间、目的提醒时间、倒计时持续的时间长度(即，从目的提醒时间之前多长时间开始倒计时)、倒计时时间(即，目的提醒时间与当前时间之差)等。应该理解，本发明的时间提醒信息不限于此，也可以是其他形式的时间提醒信息。
例如，对于健身类的信息，所述应用自动生成的时间提醒信息可以是根据用户设置或者用户健身习惯生成的健身倒计时时间；对于游戏类、购物类、日程类或休闲娱乐类的应用，所述应用自动生成的时间提醒信息可以是某个活动或节目开始前的倒计时时间，对于金融类的应用，所述应用自动生成的时间提醒信息可以是信用卡还款天数倒计时时间。
对于所述用户针对应用设置的时间提醒信息，可提供用于用户针对应用设置时间提醒信息的设置界面。图4示出根据本发明示例性实施例的用于用户针对应用设置时间提醒信息的设置界面。这里，可在图3所示的应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式的设置界面中，当用户选择倒计时模式后，进入如图4所示的用于用户针对应用设置时间提醒信息的设置界面，在图4所示的界面中，用户可以输入时间提醒开始的时间和倒计时持续的时间长度。在图4中，用户将“Keep”应用的目的提醒时间设置为20:00，将倒计时持续的时间长度设置为10分钟。
与自定义模式相应的信息包括用户针对所述应用设置的内容。所述用户针对所述应用设置的内容可包括文字、图片等。这里，可提供用于用户针对应用设置内容的设置界面。图5示出根据本发明示例性实施例的用于用户针对应用设置内容的设置界面。这里，可在图3所示的应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式的设置界面中，当用户选择自定义模式后，进入如图5所示的用于用户针对应用设置内容的设置界面，在图5所示的界面中，用户可以输入针对应用设置的内容。在图5中，用户将针对QQ音乐应用的设置的内容设置为“下载三星之歌”。
在步骤S40，在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息。具体说来，可在桌面上的所述应用的图标上显示所述信息。这里，所述应用的图标的背景可使用预设的图片，或者将图标原有的显示图片的颜色变浅或透明化之后，作为图标的背景，再在所述背景上显示获取的信息。
这里，可采用各种显示方式来在应用的图标上显示获取的信息。例如，可以采用不同的颜色、不同的字体或者在不同的位置来显示所述获取的信息。这里，可以采用针对不同的显示模式，在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息的显示方式可设置为相同。针对不同的显示模式，在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息的显示方式可设置为不相同，也就是说，在所述应用的图标上以确定的显示模式显示所述信息。此外，所述显示方式还可与应用相关。换句话说，在步骤S40，可根据所述确定的显示模式或者根据所述确定的显示模式以及所述应用来确定显示方式，以确定的显示方式在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息。
由于应用的图标上的显示空间有限且可能需要显示的信息的数量较大，因此，在步骤S40中，在所述应用的图标上，可显示最新获取的预定数量的 信息，或者自动滚动显示所有获取到的信息，或者根据用户的操作来滚动显示所有获取到的信息。
此外，由于应用的图标上的显示空间有限，在步骤S40中，可提取所述获取的信息的关键内容，在所述应用的图标上显示所述关键内容。例如，可将未读信息的联系人的头像作为关键内容，将推送消息中的关键词，作为关键内容显示在相应的应用的图标上。
此外，为了方便用户对图标上显示的信息进行查看，所述方法还可根据用户对图标进行的操作来对图标进行放大显示或者对所述信息进行预览。相应地，所述方法还可包括以下步骤：接收对所述应用的图标进行的第一预定操作，响应于所述第一预定操作，将所述应用的图标进行放大显示，或者对在所述应用的图标上显示的信息进行预览。所述第一预定操作可以是用户对图标进行的各种操作，例如单击、长按等操作。
这里，当在所述应用的图标上显示的信息为多条时，可对最新获取的信息进行预览，或者将所有显示的信息以自动滚动的方式进行预览，或者将所有显示的信息以根据用户的操作来滚动的方式进行预览。
这里，在预览状态下，为了方便用户对预览的信息进行操作，还可显示用于对预览的信息进行处理的控件。例如，显示用于对预览的信息进行删除、回复、标记为已读等处理的控件，当用户对所述控件进行操作之后，对预览的信息进行相应的处理。
这里，在预览状态下，为了方便用户对预览的信息进行详细地查看，还可根据用户对预览的信息进行的操作来进入应用以查看所述预览的信息。相应地，所述方法还可包括以下步骤：接收对所述预览的信息进行的第二预定操作，响应于所述第二预定操作，进入所述应用来查看所述预览的信息。所述第二预定操作可以是用户对预览的信息进行的各种操作，例如对单击、长按等操作。
图6是示出根据本发明示例性实施例的应用图标的显示设备的框图。根据本发明示例性实施例的应用图标的显示设备可适用于各种可显示应用图标的终端，例如，智能手机、个人计算机、平板电脑、游戏机、数字多媒体播放器等。如图6所示，根据本发明示例性实施例的应用图标的显示设备包括：动态模式进入单元10、显示模式确定单元20、信息获取单元30和信息显示单元40。
动态模式进入单元10使得应用的图标进入动态模式。根据本发明示例性实施例的应用的图标在进入动态模式后，该应用的图标显示的内容可发生变化。
这里，可根据用户的操作或预定事件的发生来使得应用的图标进入动态模式。
作为示例，动态模式进入单元10可接收将应用的图标设置为动态模式的第一设置操作，响应于第一设置操作将所述应用的图标设置为动态模式。图2示出根据本发明示例性实施例的应用的图标的动态模式设置界面。例如，可在终端的系统设置界面中设置用于进入所述动态模式设置界面的控件，当用户对所述用于进入所述动态模式设置界面的控件进行操作后，将进入如图2所示的应用的图标的动态模式设置界面。如图2所示，在动态模式设置界面中针对每个应用提供了用于进入和退出动态模式的开关201。在开关201处于关闭状态时，用户可点击所述开关201，使开关201进入开启状态，从而使开关201对应的应用的图标进入动态模式。在图2中，用户开启了天气应用、信息应用和S日历应用的开关201，上述三个应用的图标处于动态模式。
作为示例，动态模式进入单元10还可响应于预定事件将应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，可响应于开机事件将预定应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，也可响应于应用被运行而将该应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，还可响应于应用中的预定功能被执行(例如开启了某个应用的消息推送功能)而将应用的图标设置为动态模式。例如，还可响应于应用中的预定操作被执行(例如用于在某个购物应用中参加了抢购手机的活动)而将应用的图标设置为动态模式。
显示模式确定单元20确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。这里，所述显示模式可用于确定在所述应用的图标中显示的信息的类型和具体的显示方式。在一个实施例中，所述显示模式可包括以下至少一种：消息提醒模式、推送模式、倒计时模式和自定义模式。然而，本发明不限于此，其他的显示模式也是可行的。
这里，显示模式确定单元20可通过各种方式来确定所述显示模式。例如，显示模式确定单元20可根据显示模式预设值、预设时间、预定事件或者用户对显示模式的选择操作，确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。
作为示例，显示模式确定单元20可根据应用的图标的显示模式预设值来确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。这里，显示模式预设值用于指示显示模式。换言之，根据针对该应用预先设置好的显示模式预设值所指示的显示模式，来确定显示模式。例如，可根据应用的类型来预先设置应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。例如，对于社交类的应用(例如，通话应用、短信应用、微信应用、QQ应用、邮件应用等)，可预先设置该类应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式为消息提醒模式；对于新闻资讯类或购物类的应用，可预先设置该类应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式为推送模式；对于健身类或日程类的应用，可预先设置该类应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式为倒计时模式。
作为示例，显示模式确定单元20还可根据预设时间来确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。具体说来，可预先设置应用的图标的动态模式在预设时间内的显示模式。例如，对于所述应用，可针对一个或多个时间段中的每个时间段来分别设置显示模式。
作为示例，显示模式确定单元20还可根据预定事件来确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。所述事件可包括以下至少一种：系统事件、所述应用中发生的事件。这里，可预先设置预定事件与显示模式的关联关系，再根据发生的事件与所述关联关系来确定应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。例如，可将用户订阅某个应用的推送的事件与显示模式中的推送模式相关联，将用户参与某个应用中的秒杀活动的事件与显示模式中的倒计时模式相关联，等。相应地，显示模式确定单元20可通过以下方式来确定应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式：检测发生的事件，确定所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式之中是否存在与发生的事件相关联的显示模式，将与发生的事件相关联的显示模式确定为所述应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式。

与倒计时模式相应的信息包括时间提醒信息。所述时间提醒信息是应用中的各种时间提醒信息，包括应用自动生成的时间提醒信息以及用户针对应用设置的时间提醒信息。例如，时间提醒信息包括下面中的至少一个：当前时间、目的提醒时间、倒计时持续的时间长度(即，从目的提醒时间之前多长时间开始倒计时)、倒计时时间(即，目的提醒时间与当前时间之差)等。应该理解，本发明的时间提醒信息不限于此，也可以是其他形式的时间提醒信息。
例如，对于健身类的信息，所述应用自动生成的时间提醒信息可以是根据用户设置或者用户健身习惯生成的健身倒计时时间；对于游戏类、购物类、日程类或休闲娱乐类的应用，所述应用自动生成的时间提醒信息可以是某个活动或节目开始前的倒计时时间，对于金融类的应用，所述应用自动生成的时间提醒信息可以是信用卡还款天数倒计时时间。
对于所述用户针对应用设置的时间提醒信息，可提供用于用户针对应用设置时间提醒信息的设置界面。图4示出根据本发明示例性实施例的用于用户针对应用设置时间提醒信息的设置界面。这里，可在图3所示的应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式的设置界面中，当用户选择倒计时模式后，进入如 图4所示的用于用户针对应用设置时间提醒信息的设置界面，在图4所示的界面中，用户可以输入时间提醒开始的时间和倒计时持续的时间长度。在图4中，用户将“Keep”应用的目的提醒时间设置为20:00，将倒计时持续的时间长度设置为10分钟。
与自定义模式相应的信息包括用户针对所述应用设置的内容。所述用户针对所述应用设置的内容可包括文字、图片等。这里，可提供用于用户针对应用设置内容的设置界面。图5示出根据本发明示例性实施例的用于用户针对应用设置内容的设置界面。这里，可在图3所示的应用的图标的动态模式的显示模式的设置界面中，当用户选择自定义模式后，进入如图5所示的用于用户针对应用设置内容的设置界面，在图5所示的界面中，用户可以输入针对应用设置的内容。在图5中，用户将针对QQ音乐应用的设置的内容设置为“下载三星之歌”。
信息显示单元40在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息。具体说来，信息显示单元40可在桌面上的所述应用的图标上显示所述信息。这里，所述应用的图标的背景可使用预设的图片，或者将图标原有的显示图片的颜色变浅或透明化之后，作为图标的背景，再在所述背景上显示获取的信息。
这里，信息显示单元40可采用各种显示方式来在应用的图标上显示获取的信息。例如，可以采用不同的颜色、不同的字体、在不同的位置来显示所述获取的信息。这里，可以采用针对不同的显示模式，在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息的显示方式可设置为相同。针对不同的显示模式，在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息的显示方式可设置为不相同，也就是说，在所述应用的图标上以确定的显示模式显示所述信息。此外，所述显示方式还可与应用相关。换句话说，信息显示单元40可根据所述确定的显示模式或者根据所述确定的显示模式以及所述应用来确定显示方式，以确定的显示方式在所述应用的图标上显示所述信息。
由于应用的图标上的显示空间有限且可能需要显示的信息的数量较大，因此，信息显示单元40在所述应用的图标上，可显示最新获取的预定数量的信息，或者自动滚动显示所有获取到的信息，或者根据用户的操作来滚动显示所有获取到的信息。
此外，由于应用的图标上的显示空间有限，信息显示单元40可提取所述获取的信息的关键内容，在所述应用的图标上显示所述关键内容。例如，可 将未读信息的联系人的头像作为关键内容，将推送消息中的关键词，作为关键内容显示在相应的应用的图标上。
此外，为了方便用户对图标上显示的信息进行查看，所述设备还可根据用户对图标进行的操作来对图标进行放大显示或者对所述信息进行预览。相应地，所述设备还可包括预览单元(未示出)。预览单元接收对所述应用的图标进行的第一预定操作，响应于所述第一预定操作，将所述应用的图标进行放大显示，或者对在所述应用的图标上显示的信息进行预览。所述第一预定操作可以是用户对图标进行的各种操作，例如单击、长按等操作。
这里，当在所述应用的图标上显示的信息为多条时，可对最新获取的信息进行预览，或者将所有显示的信息以自动滚动的方式进行预览，或者将所有显示的信息以根据用户的操作来滚动的方式进行预览。
这里，在预览状态下，为了方便用户对预览的信息进行操作，预览单元还可显示用于对预览的信息进行处理的控件。例如，显示用于对预览的信息进行删除、回复、标记为已读等处理的控件，当用户对所述控件进行操作之后，对预览的信息进行相应的处理。
这里，在预览状态下，为了方便用户对预览的信息进行详细地查看，还可根据用户对预览的信息进行的操作来进入应用以查看所述预览的信息。相应地，所述方设备还可包括应用进入单元(未示出)。应用进入单元接收对所述预览的信息进行的第二预定操作，响应于所述第二预定操作，进入所述应用来查看所述预览的信息。所述第二预定操作可以是用户对预览的信息进行的各种操作，例如对单击、长按等操作。
根据本发明示例性实施例的应用图标的显示方法和设备，在应用的图标进入动态模式后，通过获取与动态模式的显示模式相应的信息，并在应用的图标上显示获取的信息，可充分地利用应用的图标的显示空间，方便用户查看应用的信息。
应该理解，根据本发明的应用图标的显示方法也可实现为计算机可读记录介质上的计算机可读代码。计算机可读记录介质是可存储其后可由计算机系统读出的数据的任意数据存储装置。计算机可读记录介质的示例包括：只读存储器(ROM)、随机存取存储器(RAM)、CD-ROM、磁带、软盘、光数据存储装置和载波(诸如经有线或无线传输路径通过互联网的数据传输)。计算机可读记录介质也可分布于连接网络的计算机系统，从而计算机可读代码以分 布式存储和执行。此外，完成本发明的功能程序、代码和代码段可容易地被与本发明相关的领域的普通程序员在本发明的范围之内解释。
此外，根据本发明的示例性实施例的应用图标的显示设备中的各个单元可完全由硬件来实现，例如现场可编程门阵列(FPGA)或专用集成电路(ASIC)；还可以由硬件和软件相结合的方式来实现；也可以完全通过计算机程序来以软件方式实现。
尽管已经参照其示例性实施例具体显示和描述了本发明，但是本领域的技术人员应该理解，在不脱离权利要求所限定的本发明的精神和范围的情况下，可以对其进行形式和细节上的各种改变。
