多任务界面管理方法及电子设备
本申请要求于2019年10月31日提交国家知识产权局、申请号为201911056392.2、发明名称为“多任务界面管理方法及电子设备”的中国专利申请的优先权，其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及终端技术领域，尤其涉及多任务界面管理方法及电子设备。
背景技术
随着电子技术的发展，手机、平板电脑、车载终端(又可描述为车机)等电子设备的功能越来越强大，电子设备安装的应用程序数量不断增加。用户需要经常在不同应用程序之间进行切换，以使用不同应用程序提供的不同服务和功能。
目前，在电子设备中设置多任务界面，以实现多个应用程序间的切换。多任务界面中通过层叠、堆叠或并排等排列方式来显示电子设备已启动的多个应用程序(任务)对应的卡片。其中，多任务界面中的卡片界面对应于用户退出应用程序时的界面。用户通过点击多任务界面上的卡片，前台运行卡片对应的应用程序。示例性的，如图1所示，通过并排显示的方式，横向均匀分布的将多个应用程序对应的卡片并排排列在电子设备显示屏上。由于受电子设备显示屏大小限制，图1中只能完整的显示一个应用程序对应的卡片，其余应用程序对应的卡片只能显示部分内容。因此，当已启动运行的应用程序过多时，用户只能通过在显示屏上左右滑动以查找想要启动的应用程序，非常耗时，影响用户体验。
发明内容
本申请提供一种多任务界面管理方法及电子设备，能够实现快速切换应用程序，简化用户操作，提升用户体验。
为达到上述目的，本申请采用如下技术方案：
第一方面，本申请提供一种多任务界面管理方法，应用于电子设备，该电子设备的显示界面设置有任务区域，该方法包括：响应于预设操作，电子设备确定一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序；其中，一个或多个应用程序包括电子设备当前正在运行的应用程序；预设操作包括：解锁操作、切换至桌面的操作或者点击任务区域启动按钮的操作；电子设备根据一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，在任务区域按照预设规则显示一个或多个应用程序的图标。
如此，若电子设备正在运行一个或多个应用程序，并检测到用户的解锁操作，则可以根据预测的用户启动正在运行的应用程序的可能性，判断这些应用程序的优先级顺序，并根据优先级顺序将一个或多个应用程序的图标显示于任务区域中。进而，用户可以在任务区域中快速锁定想要启动的应用程序，并可以直接通过对任务区域中显示的图标的操作，驱动电子设备执行相应的动作，如启动对应的应用程序等。
在一种可能的实现方式中，电子设备确定一个或多个的优先级顺序，包括：电子设备根据应用程序数据确定一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，应用程序数据包含如 下一项或几项：应用程序的启动时间、应用程序的启动地点、应用程序的启动频率、应用程序的使用时长。
如此，电子设备基于应用程序数据，获得用户启动一个或多个应用程序的可能性大小，根据该可能性大小即优先级顺序将应用程序图标排列显示于任务区域中。其中，应用程序数据包括与用户相关的用户使用数据，根据用户使用习惯推荐的应用程序更能满足用户需求。
示例性的，用户在每天早上8点都会使用支付宝进行付款买早餐。那么，当用户在早上8点解锁手机，电子设备预测此时用户可能会启动支付宝，则将支付宝判断为优先级最高的应用程序，显示在任务区域中用户最容易操作的显示位置，使得用户可以快速锁定并启动支付宝，而不必再进行查找。
在一种可能的实现方式中，电子设备根据一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，在任务区域按照预设规则显示一个或多个应用程序的图标，包括：电子设备根据一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，按照任务区域中显示位置的优先级顺序，显示一个或多个应用程序图标。
在一种可能的实现方式中，任务区域为显示于显示界面下方或上方的矩形区域，任务区域中显示位置的优先级顺序包括：任务区域的中央显示位置为优先级最高的显示位置，向两侧排列的显示位置优先级顺序降低；或者，任务区域最左侧的显示位置为优先级最高的显示位置，向右排列的显示位置优先级顺序降低；或者，任务区域最右侧的显示位置为优先级最高的显示位置，向左排列的显示位置优先级顺序降低。
如此，可以根据用户使用习惯确定任务区域中各个显示位置的优先级排序，将应用程序的优先级与任务区域中位置的优先级匹配，进而，便于用户快速启动应用程序。比如，用户能够快速锁定任务区域中央位置，则将任务区域中央显示位置确定为优先级最高的显示位置，并沿两侧优先级顺序降低。又比如，电子设备显示屏较大，用户单手操作不便于点击过远的位置，则将任务区域左侧或者右侧的显示位置确定为优先级最高的显示位置，便于用户操作。
在一种可能的实现方式中，响应于预设操作，电子设备确定一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，包括：电子设备第i+1次检测到用户的解锁操作，将第一应用程序确定为优先级最高的应用程序；第一应用程序为电子设备第i次解锁后，用户启动的未在任务区域显示的应用程序。
在一种可能的实现方式中，若第一应用程序的数量为多个，且第一应用程序中包括一个或多个第二应用程序，一个或多个第二应用程序为用户新下载的应用程序，则电子设备第i+1次检测到用户的解锁操作，将一个或多个第二应用程序确定为第一应用程序中优先级最高的应用程序；其中，电子设备根据一个或多个第二应用程序的下载时间顺序确定一个或多个第二应用程序的优先级顺序。
如此，用户此次解锁后新启动的应用程序，可能为用户下次解锁后还想要使用的应用程序，因此可以将该应用程序图标放在任务区域优先级较高的显示位置，便于用户启动。或者，用户此次解锁后新下载启动的应用程序，下次用户启动的可能性也较大，因此排列于任务区域优先级较高的显示位置。
在一种可能的实现方式中，电子设备检测到用户启动第一应用程序，第一应用程 序为用户启动的未在任务区域显示的应用程序，则当电子设备检测到用户切换第一应用程序至桌面的操作，按照第一应用程序的切换顺序匹配优先级顺序，第一应用程序的优先级低于一个或多个应用程序的优先级；其中，第一应用程序的数量为一个或多个。
如此，用户启动了非任务区域包括的应用程序，并切换至桌面后，也能在任务区域显示该应用程序的图标，保证用户后续想要启动该应用程序，可以在任务区域中锁定的图标，而不必在桌面多个应用程序中进行搜索查找。
在一种可能的实现方式中，电子设备检测到用户启动第三应用程序，电子设备根据一个或多个应用程序中与第三应用程序的关联度，将关联度较高的应用程序的图标显示于任务区域中优先级较高的显示位置；其中，第二应用程序为电子设备中包含的应用程序。
如此，可以进行关联推荐，更加便于用户操作。示例性的，用户拍照后有修图的习惯，那么当用户启动相机并切换至桌面后，电子设备可以将修图应用程序的图标排列于任务区域优先级较高的显示位置，便于用户快速锁定，启动修图应用程序，提高用户体验。
在一种可能的实现方式中，响应于对目标应用程序的图标的单击操作，电子设备在前台运行目标应用程序。响应于对目标应用程序的图标的长按并上滑操作，电子设备删除任务区域中的目标应用程序的图标。
如此，电子设备检测到用户对任务区域中显示的应用程序的图标的各种操作，执行各种预设动作，满足用户需求。比如，电子设备检测到用户单击某图标的操作，则启动该图标对应的应用程序。又比如，电子设备检测到用户在某图标上长按并上滑，则删除该图标。
在一种可能的实现方式中，响应于任务区域中的滑动操作，电子设备显示隐藏区域中的应用程序的图标。
如此，任务区域包括显示区域和隐藏区域，显示区域的大小受限于电子设备显示屏的大小，则可以通过滑动操作显示隐藏区域中包括的应用程序的图标，进而，任务区域中可以包括更多的应用程序图标。
在一种可能的实现方式中，响应于任务区域中的双指捏合或双指拉伸操作，电子设备放大或缩小任务区域。
如此，任务区域放大或缩小后，任务区域中显示的应用程序图标也会随之放大或缩小，进而更加满足用户的使用习惯。如用户为老年人，较大的图标能够使该用户更加清晰的查看。
在一种可能的实现方式中，若电子设备未检测到用户的锁屏操作，则按照预设周期根据当前运行的一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序刷新任务区域显示的图标。
如此，电子设备除检测到用户的解锁操作，检测到用户启动非任务区域包含的应用程序的操作，检测到用户切换至桌面的操作，会刷新任务区域显示内容若用户长时间未锁屏，电子设备也会按照预设周期刷新任务区域显示内容，以保证当前任务区域显示图标能够满足用户需求。
在一种可能的实现方式中，电子设备的显示界面设置有任务区域启动按钮，该方 法包括：响应于用户点击任务区域启动按钮的操作，电子设备显示所述任务区域。
如此，可以将任务区域持续显示于电子设备显示界面固定位置，或者，也可以在电子设备显示界面上设置任务区域启动按钮，若用户需要切换应用程序，则通过操作任务区域启动按钮启动任务区域。并且，每次电子设备检测到用户操作任务区域启动按钮时，都会获得当前正在运行的应用程序的优先级顺序，进而可以满足用户当前快速启动应用程序的需求。
第二方面，本申请实施例提供一种电子设备，该电子设备可以为实现上述第一方面方法的装置。该电子设备可以包括：一个或多个处理器；存储器，所述存储器中存储有指令；触摸屏，用于检测触摸操作，以及显示任务区域；若指令被一个或多个处理器执行，则使得电子设备执行第一方面的多任务界面管理方法。
第三方面，本申请提供一种电子设备，该电子设备具有实现上述第一方面任一项的多任务界面管理方法的功能。该功能可以通过硬件实现，也可以通过硬件执行相应的软件实现。该硬件或软件包括一个或多个与上述功能相对应的模块。
第四方面，本申请实施例提供一种计算机可读存储介质，包括计算机指令，当计算机指令在电子设备上运行时，使得电子设备执行如第一方面及其中任一种可能的实现方式中所述的方法。
第五方面，本申请实施例提供一种计算机程序产品，当计算机程序产品在计算机上运行时，使得计算机执行如第一方面中及其中任一种可能的实现方式中所述的方法。

电子设备可以启动并同时运行多个应用程序。一般的，用户在打开某个应用程序后，若切换至其他应用程序或桌面，电子设备不会主动清除用户之前打开的应用程序所占用的内存资源，而是将之前使用的应用程序作为后台应用程序保留在多任务队列中。因此，电子设备同时运行多个应用程序是指，电子设备已启动多个应用程序，多个应用程序未关闭或电子设备未删除多个应用程序占用的内存等资源，使得多个应用程序同时在后台和/或前台占用内存等资源，而并不要求多个应用程序同时在前台与用户交互。例如，手机先后启动了音乐、图库和微信3个应用程序，并且在前台运行音乐应用的同时，在后台运行图库应用和微信应用。
在本申请实施例中，电子设备检测到预设操作，则电子设备将正在运行(包括后台运行和前台运行)的一个或多个应用程序的图标，按照应用程序的优先级顺序，显示于任务区域中。用户可以通过点击任务区域中的图标快速在前台启动对应的应用程序。其中，预设操作包括解锁操作、切换至桌面的操作或者点击任务区域启动按钮的操作。任务区域可位于显示界面预配置的固定位置，如任务区域为显示于显示界面下方或上方的矩形区域。
比如，电子设备检测到用户的解锁操作，获得正在运行的一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，在显示界面预配置的固定位置显示的任务区域中按照优先级顺序显示一个或多个应用程序的图标。
又比如，当用户前台启动应用程序后，为了保证应用界面的显示效果，电子设备隐藏任务区域。若电子设备检测到用户切换至桌面的操作，则获得正在运行的一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，在显示界面预配置的固定位置显示的任务区域中按照优先级顺序显示应用程序的图标。
又比如，电子设备显示界面上设置有任务区域启动按钮，电子设备解锁后，任务区域未显示或显示后隐藏任务区域。若电子设备检测到用户对任务区域启动按钮的操作，则显示任务区域。如图4中的(a)所示，在电子设备显示界面上任意位置设置任务区域启动按钮401。电子设备检测到用户点击任务区域启动按钮401的操作，则获得正在运行的一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，在显示界面预配置的固定位置显示任务区域，并在任务区域中按照优先级顺序显示一个或多个应用程序的图标。其中，用户可以根据使用习惯移动任务区域启动按钮401。如电子设备检测到用户点击任务区域启动按钮401的操作，则在电子设备显示界面的中央位置显示如图4中的(b)所示的任务区域。其中，任务区域按钮401为悬浮按钮，即若某应用程序在电子设备前台运行，则任务区域按钮401悬浮显示于该应用程序界面，电子设备检测到用户点击任务区域启动按钮401的操作，在显示界面预配置的固定位置显示如图4中的(b)所示的任务区域。
可选的，电子设备检测到用户在任务区域中的双指捏合或拉伸操作后，可以对任务区域进行相应的缩小或放大显示，相应的任务区域中的图标也随之缩小或放大。比如，电子设备检测到用户在任务区域中的双指捏合操作后，任务区域缩小变窄，相应的任务区域中的图标也随之缩小，如此，可以显示更多的图标或者更符合用户对于屏幕的显示习惯。又比如，电子设备检测到用户在任务区域中的双指拉伸操作后，任务 区域放大变宽，相应的任务区域中的图标也随之放大，如此可以使得用户可以更加清晰的查看图标，便于点击相应的图标。
可选的，任务区域的大小及显示图标的数量可调整。示例性的，任务区域的大小及显示图标的数量会随着电子设备的屏幕方向变化。如图5中的(a)所示，电子设备竖屏显示时，任务区域可以显示6个应用程序图标。如图5中的(b)所示，电子设备切换为横屏显示时，任务区域变长，可显示8个应用程序图标。可选的，用户可以根据自身需求自定义任务区域的大小和/或任务区域中显示的图标数量，电子设备根据用户的自定义设置，在任务区域排列对应数量的应用程序图标。
以下将以电子设备为图2所示的手机100，手机可以运行一个或多个任务，每个任务为一个应用程序，每个应用程序对应一个应用程序图标为例，对本申请实施例提供的多任务界面管理方法进行阐述。
本申请实施例提供一种多任务界面管理方法。如图6所示，该方法可以包括：
S101、响应于预设操作，电子设备确定一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序。
在一种可能的实现方式中，若当电子设备检测到预设操作，则计算当前正在运行的一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序。其中，优先级指的是用户启动该应用程序的可能性。比如，优先级较高，即为电子设备预测用户启动该应用程序的可能性较大。
示例性的，如图7所示，手机100的显示界面包含主显示界面702(即桌面)和位于显示界面底部的任务区域701。其中，任务区域701用于显示电子设备正在运行的应用程序的图标。任务区域701中的显示内容不会随用户对主显示界面702上切换界面的滑动操作而变化。示例性的，参见如图7中的(a)所示的用户界面，主显示界面702显示通话应用程序和信息应用程序，当用户在主显示界面702沿箭头方向滑动屏幕后，手机显示如图7中的(b)所示的用户界面。滑动后的主显示界面702显示的应用程序变为天气应用程序和设置应用程序，而任务区域701中显示的应用程序图标未发生变化。其中，用户可以对任务区域701中显示的应用程序图标进行查看、移动、删除、添加、放大或缩小等操作。
一般地，手机操作系统提供有用于记录手机内所安装的应用程序的使用情况的进程。该进程在手机开机后可以实时监控手机内的应用程序的运行情况，记录并统计应用程序数据。例如，记录手机内的应用程序的名称，应用程序的使用频率、开启时间、使用时长、使用地点等信息。该应用程序数据可以存储在手机特定的存储区域，如图2中所示的存储器130。或者，手机也可从云端、其它电子设备(如用户使用过的旧手机、用户使用的平板电脑)或其它外部存储器获得应用程序数据。
当用户向手机100输入锁屏操作(例如按压电源键等)，或者，在预设时间内没有接收到用户的任何输入，可触发手机100生成锁屏指令，由手机100响应该锁屏指令在当前显示界面上加载锁屏界面(lock screen)，并熄灭屏幕进入如图8中的(a)所示的黑屏状态。手机锁屏后，所有运行的应用程序在手机后台运行，成为后台应用程序。后续，当用户解锁手机100，手机100可以从上述存储区域读取手机后台应用程序中各个应用程序的数据，根据不同应用程序的数据计算各个应用程序的优先级，并按照优先级顺序排列不同应用程序的图标。其中，优先级高的应用程序表明用户后续使用该应用程序的可能性较大，优先级低的应用程序表明后续用户使用该应用程序 的可能性较小。因此，如图8中的(b)所示，解锁手机100后，在任务区域701显示按照优先级顺序排列的不同应用程序的图标。
可选的，结合用户使用数据获得后台应用程序的优先级顺序。该用户使用数据为上述应用程序数据中与用户相关的使用数据中如下一项或几项内容：应用程序的启动时间、应用程序的启动地点、应用程序的启动频率、应用程序的使用时长。
比如，根据用户使用习惯，结合应用程序的启动时间及应用程序的启动频率，获得后台应用程序的优先级顺序。示例性的，用户A每天早上8点左右会使用支付宝付款买早餐，因此，当用户A在早上8点左右解锁手机，支付宝即为优先级最高的应用程序。可以理解的是，可以设置预设周期，用于统计不同时间段内不同应用程序的启动次数。例如，以7天为一周期统计用户在最近7天内，当前时间段内后台应用程序对应的启动次数，进而判断应用程序的优先级。
又比如，根据用户使用习惯，结合应用程序的启动地点及应用程序的启动频率，获得后台应用程序的优先级顺序。示例性的，用户A在家的时候，会经常使用微信应用及微博应用，因此，当通过手机定位装置判断用户A在家时，用户A解锁手机，微信应用和微博应用即为优先级较高的应用程序。可以理解的是，可以设置预设周期，用于统计用户在不同地点启动不同应用程序的次数。例如，以1个月为一周期统计用户在最近一个月内，在当前地点后台应用程序对应的启动次数，进而判断在当前地点应用程序的优先级。
又比如，根据用户使用习惯，结合应用程序的启动时间、应用程序的启动地点及应用程序的使用时长，获得后台应用程序的优先级顺序。用户A在家使用微信应用及微博应用的时间较长，其中，8点到9点用户使用微信应用的时间较长，9点-10点用户使用微博应用的时间较长。因此，当用户9点30分在家中解锁手机，微博应用为优先级最高的应用程序，微信应用为优先级第二高的应用程序。
又比如，根据用户使用习惯，结合应用程序的启动时间、应用程序的启动地点及应用程序的启动频率，获得后台应用程序的优先级顺序。示例性的，建立各个应用程序使用情况的数据库，在数据库中按照时间维度、地点维度记录各个应用程序的启动频率，之后根据数据库中记录的数据获得应用程序的优先级。其中，时间维度可以由厂商或用户自定义设定，如设定为一周，即，数据库中记录一周内用户启动某应用程序的次数。地点维度为用户启动某应用程序的地点，如在某地启动应用程序，可以记录该地的经纬度坐标或地址信息。即，数据库中记录用户在某地启动某应用程序的次数。综上用户在任何时刻任何地点启动应用程序都会被电子设备记录在数据库中。在手机检测到用户的解锁操作后，分别根据当前时间跟地点维度，结合用户对各个后台应用程序的启动频率，分别计算出两组得分，对应组合相加后的得分作为该应用程序的预测使用得分。根据预测使用得分，将各个应用程序的图标从任务区域701中优先级较高的显示位置到优先级较低的显示位置依次排列。示例性的，用户早上8点左右在某便利店解锁手机。此时，时间维度为早上8点，地点维度为该便利店经纬度坐标或地址信息。手机读取数据库中正在运行的应用程序的使用数据，假设此时后台运行有两个应用程序支付宝和微信。在一周时间内，用户在当前时间启动支付宝的次数为5次，启动微信的次数为3次；用户在当前地点启动支付宝的次数为5次，启动微信 的次数为1次。那么，此次解锁后，支付宝的预测使用分数为10分(5+5＝10)，微信的预测使用分数为4分(3+1＝4)，由此，手机获知此次解锁支付宝的预测使用分数大于微信的预测使用分数，那么手机会将支付宝应用图标排列在任务区域701中优先级最高的显示位置，将微信应用图标排列在次高的显示位置。
需要说明的是，上述获得应用程序优先级顺序的方法并不局限于应用程序的启动时间、应用程序的启动地点、应用程序的启动频率以及应用程序的使用时长，还可以包括其他影响应用程序推荐的因素。比如用户自定义的设置等。示例性的，用户可以将某一应用程序设置为优先级最高的应用程序，则该应用程序的图标始终排列在任务区域701中优先级最高的显示位置。对此本申请实施例不做具体限定。
此外，为了保护用户隐私，本申请实施例中的优先级计算方法只应用于正在前台或后台运行的应用程序。也即，若应用程序未运行，为保护用户隐私，电子设备不能读取用于获得应用程序优先级的用户数据，故，不能应用上述优先级计算方法。
S102、电子设备根据一个或多个应用程序的优先级顺序，在任务区域按照预设规则显示一个或多个应用程序的图标。
在一种可能的实现方式中，在电子设备中预配置或者由用户设定任务区域701中各个显示位置的优先级排序，如中央的显示位置为优先级最高的显示位置，沿两侧优先级逐渐降低。电子设备按照各个后台应用程序优先级顺序，依次将各个后台应用程序的图标排列在相应的显示位置。由此，可以使得用户快速锁定需要启动的应用程序，简化用户操作，提高用户体验。
可选的，在任务区域701中央的显示位置显示优先级最高的应用程序的图标，便于用户启动该应用程序，优先级较低的应用程序的图标依次排列在优先级最高的应用程序的图标两侧。示例性的，如图8中的(b)所示，任务区域701中显示有六个应用程序图标。支付宝图标及微信图标排列在任务区域701中央，那么这六个应用程序优先级排序可以为：支付宝＞微信＞音乐＞微博＞相机＞图库。
可选的，根据用户习惯，在任务区域701按照优先级顺序排列应用程序的图标。比如，按照优先级顺序从左往右或从右往左的顺序依次排列应用程序的图标。又比如，根据用户自定义的任务区域701中显示位置的优先级顺序，对应排列应用程序图标。对此本申请实施例不做具体限定。
在一种可能的实现方式中，当用户第i次解锁手机后，启动主显示界面702(即桌面)中显示的第一应用程序，且该第一应用程序未显示于任务区域701中。那么，若第i次解锁后使用的第一应用程序，在第i+1次用户解锁后为后台应用程序，则该第一应用程序会被计算为优先级最高的应用程序，对应图标显示于任务区域701中优先级最高的显示位置。示例性的，参见图8中的(b)所示，假设用户不会清除后台应用程序占用的内存资源，则任务区域701中显示的六个应用程序的优先级排序为：支付宝＞微信＞音乐＞微博＞相机＞图库。若用户并没有启动任务区域701中显示的应用程序，而是选择启动主显示界面702中的通话应用。参见图9中的(a)所示，若手机此次锁屏再解锁，则通话应用将取代支付宝应用成为优先级最高的应用程序，通话应用程序图标显示于任务区域701中优先级最高的显示位置，并且由于任务区域701显示区域有限，之前六个应用程序中优先级最低的图库应用的图标无法显示，如图9中 的(a)所示，图库图标在电子设备显示屏之外(即隐藏区域中)，当前界面中无法显示。如果用户想要使用图库应用，可以通过滑动任务区域701以显示更多的后台应用程序的图标。如图9中的(b)所示，为用户在任务区域701滑动向右滑动后显示的界面，任务区域701中显示有图库应用的图标。即，可以在任务区域701中通过滑动显示更多的后台应用程序的图标。为了便于理解，参见下表1，示例性的，任务区域701包含显示区域和隐藏区域。居中的显示区域可以显示优先级1-6应用程序的图标，通过滑动可以显示左右隐藏区域中包含的更多的优先级较低的应用程序的图标。
表1
Figure PCTCN2020113804-appb-000001
可选的，当用户第i次解锁手机后，启动主显示界面702(即桌面)中的多个第一应用程序，且该多个第一应用程序均未显示于任务区域701中。那么，若第i次解锁手机后使用的多个第一应用程序，在第i+1次用户解锁时为后台应用程序，则该多个第一应用程序的优先级高于其他后台应用程序，并且利用上述优先级算法计算该多个第一应用程序的优先级顺序，对应显示于任务区域701中。若该多个第一应用程序中存在用户新下载安装的一个或多个第二应用程序即手机中并未记录该一个或多个第二应用程序的应用程序数据，则将该一个或多个第二应用程序的优先级定义为第一应用程序中优先级最高的应用程序，对应显示于任务区域701中优先级最高的显示位置。并且根据下载安装时间，确定该一个或多个第二应用程序的优先级顺序，在任务区域701中随下载安装的时间顺序，依次排列一个或多个第二应用程序图标。
可选的，当用户解锁手机后，并没有启动任务区域701中显示的应用程序，而是选择启动主显示界面702(即桌面)中显示的一个或多个第一应用程序。那么，当用户切换该一个或多个第一应用程序至桌面后，将按照一个或多个第一应用程序的切换顺序匹配优先级顺序，对应图标显示于任务区域701中。其中，一个或多个第一应用程序的优先级顺序小于任务区域中包括的应用程序优先级顺序。示例性的，如图8中的(b)所示，用户未启动任务区域701中的应用程序，而是选择启动主显示界面702中的通话应用，那么当用户结束通话切换至桌面后，通话应用程序图标将显示于任务区域701中优先级最低的显示位置。之后，用户启动主显示界面702中的信息应用，当用户使用完信息应用切换至桌面后，信息应用程序图标将显示于任务区域701中优先级最低的显示位置，通话应用程序图标将显示于任务区域701中倒数第二优先级显示位置。
可选的，电子设备刷新任务区域701。其中，刷新任务区域701的时机包括：电子设备检测到用户的解锁操作，电子设备检测到用户点击启动任务区域按钮，电子设备检测到用户切换应用程序至桌面或电子设备启动后持续运行时间间隔达到预设周期。其中，预设周期可以为电子设备厂商预配置或者由用户自定义设置。比如，用户设置该自动刷新的预设周期为2h，那么当电子设备启动后持续运行的时间间隔等于两小时时，电子设备会重新计算正在运行的应用程序的优先级顺序。示例性的，如图8中的(b)所示，用户早8点解锁手机，优先级顺序排序第一的为支付宝，优先级顺序排序第二的为微信，用户连续使用手机(期间未锁屏)至10点，电子设备会对运行的应用程序重新计算优先级顺序。比如，10点时，优先级顺序排序第一的变为微信，优先级顺序排序第二的变为支付宝，那么微信图标将会取代支付宝图标排列在任务区域701优先级最高的显示位置。又比如，10点时，电子设备重新计算应用程序优先级顺序，此时，支付宝应用并未运行(在8点-10点期间用户关闭并将支付宝占用的内存数据清除)，那么，电子设备任务区域701中将不显示支付宝图标。若用户持续使用手机未锁屏，那么每隔2h，电子设备会自动刷新任务区域701的显示内容。
可选的，用户启动第三应用程序后，电子设备会根据后台应用程序中与当前用户启动的第三应用程序的关联度，按照关联度高低将后台应用程序的图标显示于任务区域701中。示例性的，用户启动相机应用，电子设备确定后台应用程序中包含微信应用。比如，用户习惯拍照后利用微信应用分享照片，因此相机应用与微信应用关联度较高。故，当用户切换相机应用至桌面后，电子设备将微信应用判定为优先级最高的应用程序，将微信图标排列在任务区域701优先级最高的显示位置。又比如，用户习惯拍照后利用微信应用分享照片，有时还会利用美图应用修改照片，且美图应用也为后台应用程序。因此，相机应用与微信应用及美图应用关联度较高。故，当用户切换相机应用至桌面后，电子设备判定微信应用与美图应用优先级较高，将微信图标与美图图标排列在任务区域701优先级较高的显示位置。其中，微信应用与美图应用的优先级可以根据用户使用相机应用后切换至这两个应用的次数确定，或者也可以随机排序。
通过上述步骤S101和S102，电子设备显示界面显示任务区域，则用户还可以通过下述步骤S103，对任务区域中显示的目标应用程序的图标进行操作，以驱动电子设备执行预设动作，满足用户需求。
S103、响应于对目标应用程序的图标的操作，电子设备执行预设动作。
具体的，电子设备检测到用户对任务区域701中目标应用程序的图标的单击、长按或长按并上移操作，会执行相应的预设动作。电子设备执行的动作可以为如下一项或几项：启动应用程序，查看应用程序，移动应用程序，分享应用程序，删除应用程序图标，编辑应用程序快捷方式。
在一种可能的实现方式中，手机100在检测到用户点击任务区域701中的某个图标的操作后，进入该图标对应的应用程序，并全屏显示该应用程序的界面。即，前台运行该应用程序。其中，某个应用程序的界面可以是该应用程序的主页面，最近在前台显示的界面，登录界面，或用户经常使用的界面等。
可选的，任务区域701中的每个图标可以对应一个或多个卡片，每个卡片可以对 应一个应用程序。其中，卡片为应用程序对应的功能界面。示例性的，手机100在检测到用户点击任务区域701中的某个图标的操作后，在主显示界面702上显示该图标对应的卡片。
比如，上述卡片为锁屏前用户使用过的该应用程序对应的功能，将这些卡片按照时间顺序排序，将最近操作过的功能对应的卡片优先显示。用户点击想要使用的功能对应的卡片即可进入该应用功能，用户还可以通过滑动操作，以显示更多的卡片。如图10中的(a)所示，用户点击任务区域701中的微信图标后，在主显示界面702上显示该图标对应的卡片。在上次锁屏前用户使用过微信的两个功能，分别为“添加朋友”功能和“主页面聊天”功能，因此，在主显示界面702上显示这两个功能对应的卡片。其中，最近操作的功能为“添加朋友”功能，因此，在左侧优先显示该功能的卡片。若用户还想操作“添加朋友”功能，直接点击该卡片即可进入该功能，而不必再通过一步步点击选择，提高电子设备与用户之间的交互效率。
又比如，上述卡片可以为锁屏前用户使用过的该应用程序对应的功能，将这些卡片按照使用次数顺序进行排序，将使用次数最多的功能对应的卡片优先显示。或者，上述卡片也可以为用户历史使用过的该应用程序中对应的功能中使用次数排序在先的部分功能。如图10中的(b)所示，用户点击任务区域701中的微信图标后，在主显示界面702上显示该图标对应的卡片。在上次锁屏前或历史记录中用户使用过微信的两个功能，分别为“添加朋友”功能和“主页面聊天”功能，因此，在主显示界面702上显示这两个功能对应的卡片。其中，“主页面聊天”功能为用户使用次数较多的功能，因此，在左侧优先显示该功能的卡片，便于用户直接锁定启动对应功能，简化用户操作，提高效率及用户体验。
需要说明的是，若任务区域701中的某一图标对应的卡片数量为1，用户点击该图标可以直接进入该单个卡片对应的功能，而不必再通过显示并点击该卡片而使用对应的功能，提高交互效率。并且，上述图10中，示例性的给出了某一图标对应的两个卡片，可以理解的是，本申请实施例对于任务区域701中每一图标对应的卡片数量不做具体限定，图标可以对应多于两个的卡片，用户可以通过滑动操作，进行选择。
在一种可能的实现方式中，用户可以通过长按任务区域701中的图标对该图标进行编辑或快速选择。
比如，用户可以通过长按某图标移动该图标的排列位置。如此，可以进一步的满足用户的使用需求，并且，电子设备可以记录当前用户的移动操作。进而，在下一次电子设备检测到用户的解锁操作，将此次移动后任务区域中显示的图标对应的应用程序优先级顺序也加入到优先级计算中。比如，用户通过长按图标将处于优先级次高显示位置的应用程序图标移动到优先级最高的显示位置，那么若下一次电子设备解锁，则电子设备会直接将该被移动的应用程序图标排列在任务区域701中优先级最高的显示位置。
又比如，用户可以通过长按某图标对该图标对应的应用程序进行分享。即可以通过长按某图标将该图标对应的应用程序的下载地址生成链接，分享给与当前电子设备连接的其他电子设备，用户可以在其他电子设备中点击分享的链接，下载分享的应用程序。
又比如，用户可以通过长按某图标删除该图标。长按图标的删除操作仅为删除该图标，而不会卸载该图标对应的应用程序。为了防止用户误删除，该删除图标的操作也不会删除该图标对应的应用程序的后台缓存数据，即此次锁屏再解锁后，手机100还可以再次计算该应用程序的优先级，使得该应用程序的图标排列在任务区域701中。
又比如，用户可以通过长按某图标编辑该图标对应的应用程序。例如，可以设置建立对应应用程序中某些功能的快捷方式，以便于用户可以快速启动该功能，而不必进入该应用程序后再通过一步步选择而启动某些功能，提高电子设备与用户之间的交互效率。
示例性的，参见图11中的(a)所示，手机100检测到用户长按任务区域701中的微信图标后，显示“分享”、“删除”、“编辑”、“钱包”和“三角图形”按钮。用户可以通过点击相应的按钮执行上述分享、删除及编辑操作。如通过点击“编辑”为微信应用中的钱包功能设置快捷方式或删除该快捷方式。手机100检测到用户点击某些功能快捷方式按钮的操作后，可以全屏显示相应的功能界面。如图11中的(b)所示，为手机100检测到用户点击“钱包”按钮后显示的“微信钱包”功能界面，用户不必先进入微信后再一步步点击启动钱包功能，而可以通过快捷按钮直接启动对应的功能。并且用户可以通过编辑功能，编辑该应用程序中更多常用功能的快捷方式。通过点击图11中的(a)中“钱包”后的“三角图形”按钮，进入如图11中的(c)显示的界面，显示更多的微信中的功能对应的快捷方式，如“添加朋友”、“生活缴费”等。若还有更多功能的快捷方式未显示，可以通过点击“三角图形”按钮以显示，若已没有未显示的快捷方式，则可以不显示“三角图形”按钮。
可选的，用户可以通过长按并上移任务区域701中的图标实现对该图标的快速删除。该快速删除操作同样为删除该图标，而不会卸载该图标对应的应用程序。并且可以不必在长按图标后再进行点击选择而删除图标，进一步提高效率。
由此可见，本申请实施例提供的一种多任务界面管理方法，在电子设备显示界面中设置任务区域，若电子设备检测到预设操作，则电子设备将运行中的应用程序图标按照预测用户会启动的应用程序优先级顺序排列在任务区域中，便于用户快速锁定及操作相应的应用程序，简化用户操作，提高用户体验。
