技术领域
本发明实施例涉及通信技术领域，尤其涉及一种应用程序控制方法、装置及电子设备。
背景技术
随着通信技术的发展，电子设备的功能越来越丰富，例如，电子设备可以同时在电子设备的屏幕上显示两个应用程序的界面，以通过这两个界面向用户展示不同信息。
目前，在电子设备同时在电子设备的屏幕上显示应用1的界面和应用2的界面的情况下，用户可以在应用1的界面上输入，以触发电子设备控制应用1执行与该输入对应的操作，并保持应用2的界面不变。相应地，用户可以在应用2的界面上输入，以触发电子设备控制应用2执行与该输入对应的操作，并保持应用1的界面不变。可以看出，电子设备是以独立运行应用1和应用2的方式，同时显示应用1的界面和应用2的界面的。如此，由于电子设备以独立运行多个应用程序的方式，同时显示这些应用程序的界面，因此可能导致电子设备同时显示多个应用程序的界面的方式单一，灵活性较差。
发明内容
本发明实施例提供一种应用程序控制方法、装置及电子设备，以解决电子设备同时显示多个应用程序的界面的方式单一，灵活性较差的问题。
为了解决上述技术问题，本申请是这样实现的：

第二方面，本发明实施例提供了一种应用程序控制装置，该装置包括：接收模块、显示模块和控制模块。接收模块，用于在显示模块显示第一界面的情况下，接收第一输入，第一界面为第一应用程序的界面；显示模块，用于响应于接收模块接收的第一输入，显示调节控件，在第一显示区域显示第一界面，在第二显示区域显示第二界面， 第二界面为第二应用程序的界面，第二应用程序为与第一应用程序具有关联关系的应用程序；接收模块，还用于接收对显示模块显示的调节控件的第二输入；控制模块，用于响应于接收模块接收的第二输入，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级，该关联等级用于指示以下至少一项：第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的数量、第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的重要程度。
第三方面，本发明实施例提供了一种电子设备，包括处理器、存储器及存储在存储器上并可在处理器上运行的计算机程序，计算机程序被处理器执行时可以实现上述第一方面的应用程序控制方法的步骤。
第四方面，本发明实施例提供了一种计算机可读存储介质，该计算机可读存储介质上存储计算机程序，该计算机程序被处理器执行时可以实现上述第一方面的应用程序控制方法的步骤。
在本申请实施例中，电子设备可以在显示第一界面的情况下，接收第一输入，第一界面为第一应用程序的界面；且响应于第一输入，显示调节控件，在第一显示区域显示第一界面，在第二显示区域显示第二界面，第二界面为第二应用程序的界面，第二应用程序为与第一应用程序具有关联关系的应用程序；且接收对调节控件的第二输入；响应于第二输入，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级，该关联等级用于指示以下任意一项：第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的数量、第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的重要程度。通过该方案，由于电子设备可以在同时显示第一界面和第二界面时，即根据第二界面对应的第二应用程序与第一界面对应的第一应用程序之间的关联关系，显示用于调节第一应用程序和第二应用程序之间的关联等级的调节控件，因此，用户可以根据其实际使用需求，触发电子设备灵活调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级，从而，电子设备可以以不同关联等级显示第一应用程序的界面和第二应用程序的界面，如此，可以提高电子设备同时显示多个应用程序的界面的灵活性。
进一步地，由于第一应用程序与第二应用程序的关联等级可以指示第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联程度，而该关联程度决定了这两个应用程序之间是否可以关联操作，以及关联操作的程度，因此基于本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法，用户可以通过触发电子设备将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级调节为满足其对第一应用程序与第二应用程序关联操作需求的关联等级，从而可以提高用户的体验感。

应用程序框架层是应用程序的框架，开发人员可以在遵守应用程序的框架的开发原则的情况下，基于应用程序框架层开发一些应用程序。例如，可以基于应用程序框架程开发本申请实施例中的第一应用程序和第二应用程序。
系统运行库层包括库(也称为系统库)和安卓操作系统运行环境。库主要为安卓操作系统提供其所需的各类资源。安卓操作系统运行环境用于为安卓操作系统提供软件环境。
内核层是安卓操作系统的操作系统层，属于安卓操作系统软件层次的最底层。内核层基于Linux内核为安卓操作系统提供核心系统服务和与硬件相关的驱动程序。
以安卓操作系统为例，本申请实施例中，开发人员可以基于上述如图1所示的安卓操作系统的系统架构，开发实现本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法的软件程序，从而使得该应用程序控制方法可以基于如图1所示的安卓操作系统运行。即处理器或者电子设备可以通过在安卓操作系统中运行该软件程序实现本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法。
本申请实施例中的电子设备可以为移动终端，也可以为非移动终端。示例性的，移动终端可以为手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、掌上电脑、车载终端、可穿戴设备、超级移动个人计算机(ultra-mobile personal computer，UMPC)、上网本或者个人数字助理(personal digital assistant，PDA)等，非移动终端可以为个人计算机(personal computer，PC)、电视机(television，TV)、柜员机或者自助机等，本发明实施例不作具体限定。

可选地，本申请实施例中，第一应用程序可以为电子设备中的任意应用程序。例如，第一应用程序可以为“阅读”、“聊天”、“购物1”、“游戏”、“新闻”、“地图”、“导航”、“设置”，以及“天气”等任意可能的应用程序。具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述第一输入可以为用于触发电子设备同时显示第一界面和第二界面的输入。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述第一输入可以为点击输入，长按输入，重按输入，滑动输入，以及拖动输入等任意可能形式的输入，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。其中，上述点击输入可以为单击、双击或者连续点击第一预设次数的输入。上述长按输入可以为接触第一预设时间的输入。上述重按输入也称为压力触控输入，是指用户以大于或等于第一压力阈值的压力值按下的输入。上述滑动输入可以为沿的第一预设方向拖动的输入。上述拖动输入可以沿第二预设方向滑动的输入。
需要说明的是，上述第一预设次数、第一预设时间、第一预设方向、第一压力阈值，以及第二预设方向均可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
S202、电子设备响应于第一输入，显示调节控件，在第一显示区域显示第一界面，在第二显示区域显示第二界面。
其中，上述第二界面可以为第二应用程序的界面，第二应用程序为电子设备中与第一应用程序具有关联关系的应用程序。
可选地，本申请实施例中，第二应用程序可以为与第一应用程序不同的应用程序，也可以为与第一应用程序相同的应用程序，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
可选地，本申请实施例中，可以不限定第二应用程序的数量，即第二应用程序可以为一个应用程序，也可以为多个应用程序，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定。为了更好地描述本发明实施例提供的应用程序的控制方法，除特别说明外，下述实施例中均以第二应用程序为一个应用程序为例进行示意。
可选地，本申请实施例中，第二界面可以为第二应用程序中的任意一个界面。例如，第二界面可以为第二应用程序中的主界面，也可以第二应用程序中的一个功能界面，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述调节控件可以用于触发调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级。对于通过条节控件触发调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级的描述，具体可以参见下述实施例中的相关描述，为了避免重复，此处不再赘述。
本申请实施例中，可以不限定调节控件的显示位置。例如，调节控件的显示位置可以为第一显示区域中的位置，也可以为第二显示区域中的位置，还可以为除第一显示区域和第二显示区域之外的其他位置。
可选地，本申请实施例中，一种可能的实现方式中，上述调节控件可以包括滑动区域和设置在该滑动区域的滑块。另一种可能的实现方式中，上述调节控件可以包括多个子控件(例如可以包括M个子控件，M为大于1的整数)。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述一种可能的实现方式中，上述滑动区域可以为一个环形区域，一个长条形区域，或者一个矩形区域，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述另一种可能的实现方式中，电子设备可以以不同颜色区分上述M个子区域中的不同子区域。或者，电子设备可以在上述M个子区域中的不同子区域中显示数字或者字母，以区分不同子区域。或者，电子设备可以以其他任意可能的方式区分上述M个子区域中的不同子区域，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
本申请实施例中，电子设备接收用户的第一输入之后，可以先判断第一输入对应的应用程序(例如上述第二应用程序)与第一应用程序之间是否支持关联显示，若第二应用程序与第一应用程序之间支持关联显示，则表示第一应用程序与第二应用程序具有关联关系，从而电子设备可以显示调节控件，在第一显示区域显示第一界面，在第二显示区域显示第二应用程序的界面(即上述第二界面)。若第二应用程序与第一应用程序之间不支持关联显示，则表示第一应用程序与第二应用程序不具有关联关系，从而电子设备可以在第一显示区域显示第一界面，在第二显示区域显示应用程序的界面，但不显示调节控件。
可选地，本申请实施例中，若一个应用程序与该另一个应用程序之间支持关联显示，则当电子设备同时运行这两个应用程序时，电子设备可以独立运行这两个应用程序，也可以关联运行这两个应用程序；若一个应用程序与另一个应用程序不支持关联 显示，则当电子设备同时运行这两个应用程序时，电子设备独立运行这两个应用程序。
本申请实施例中，若一个应用程序与另一个应用程序之间具有相同和/或相似的操作，则可以确认这两个应用程序支持关联显示。
示例1，若应用程序A包括搜索操作，应用程序B也包括搜索操作，则表示应用程序A和应用程序B中包括相同的操作；若应用程序A包括搜索操作，应用程序B包括查找操作、筛选操作和/或评论操作，则表示应用程序A和应用程序B包括相似操作。可以看出，本示例中，应用程序A与应用程序B之间支持关联显示。
示例2，若应用程序A包括控制切换至上一页的操作，应用程序B中也包括切换至上一页的操作，则表示应用程序A和应用程序B中包括相同的操作；若应用程序B中包括切换至下K(K为正整数)页的操作和/或切换至上G(G为大于1的整数)页的操作，则表示应用程序A和应用程序B中包括相似的操作。可以看出，本示例中，应用程序A和应用程序B之间支持关联显示。
本申请实施例中，对于支持关联显示的两个应用程序，这两个应用程序之间的相同或相似操作的数量越多，则这两个应用程序的关联显示的程度越高。
本申请实施例中，当电子设备关联运行两个支持关联显示的应用程序(例如应用程序A和应用程序B)时，这两个应用程序之间包括至少一个关联操作，且每个关联操作中均包括两个子操作，一个子操作为应用程序A中的操作，另一个子输入为应用程序B中的操作。
需要说明的是，本申请实施例中，对于至少一个关联操作中的每个关联操作，用户执行触发一个关联操作中的一个子操作的输入，即可以触发电子设备控制这两个应用程序分别执行与该关联操作中的对应操作。例如，假设电子设备关联运行应用程序A和应用程序B，且应用程序A的搜索操作与应用程序B的查找操作关联，即应用程序A的搜索操作与应用程序B的查找操作组成一个关联操作；那么，当用户对程序A执行触发搜索操作的输入时，电子设备可以控制应用程序A执行搜索操作，并控制应用程序B执行搜索操作。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述第一显示区域和上述第二显示区域可以为电子设备的同一显示屏中的不同显示区域(情况1)，也可以为电子设备的不同显示屏中的显示区域(情况2)。具体的，在上述情况1中，电子设备在一个显示屏中分屏显示第一界面和第二界面，此时，第一应用程序和第二应用程序均为支持分屏显示的应用程序。在上述情况2中，电子设备在一个显示屏中显示第一界面，在另一个显示屏中显示第二界面，即这种情况下，电子设备包括多个显示屏，例如，可以为双面屏的电子设备。
S203、电子设备接收用户对调节控件的第二输入。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述第二输入具体可以为用户对调节控件的点击输入、长按输入、滑动输入、拖动输入、重按输入等任意可能形式的输入，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
对于第二输入的输入形式的描述具体可以参见上述实施例中对第一输入的输入形式的相关描述，为了避免重复，此处不再赘述。
S204、电子设备响应于第二输入，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联 等级。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述关联等级可以用于指示以下任意一项：第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的数量(方式1)、第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的重要程度(方式2)。
本申请实施例中，电子设备调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级可以理解为，电子设备在第一应用程序和第二应用程序之间的关联等级的范围内，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级。
本申请实施例中，电子设备中可以预先设置第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级，该关联等级可以包括M个等级，M可以为大于1的整数。可以理解，本申请实施例中，该M个等级即为第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级的范围，即电子设备可以在该M个等级中调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级。例如，假设M个等级为3个等级，分别为第一等级、第二等级和第三等级；即第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级的范围为：第一等级、第二等级和第三等级，那么，电子设备可以在第一等级、第二等级和第三等级的构成的范围内，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级。具体地，电子设备可以将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级调节至第一等级、第二等级或第三等级。
可选地，本申请实施例中，对于上述M个等级中的每个等级，一个等级可以用于一个数值(例如，0、1、2、3……)，且不同等级用不同数值表示。例如，等级0是指该等级的数值为0，等级1表示该等级的数值为1。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述方式1和方式2中，若一个等级对应至少一个操作，则对于该至少一个操作中的每个操作，一个操作为第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的一个关联操作。换句话说，对于该至少一个操作中的每个操作，一个操作可以包括两个子操作，一个子操作为第一应用程序中的操作，另一子个操作为第二应用程序中与该一个子操作关联的操作；且该一个子操作与该另一个子操作可以为相同或相似的操作。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述方式1中，即第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级指示第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的数量中，该关联等级的数值越大，该关联等级指示的关联操作的数量越多。例如，假设第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级包括3个等级，分别为等级0、等级1和等级2，且等级0指示的关联操作的数量为G，等级1指示的关联操作的数量为H，等级3指示的关联等级的数量为U，G、H和U均为大于或等于0的整数；那么，G小于H，H小于U。
下面分别对上述方式1和方式2进行具体说明。
方式1
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述方式1中，若M个等级中的一个等级的数值为0，则该等级指示的关联操作的数量可以为0，即当第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的等级的数值为0时，第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间没有任何关联操作，可以理解，这种情况下，电子设备独立运行第一应用程序和第二应用程序；若M个等级中的一个等级的数值大于0，则该等级指示的关联操作的数量大于或等于1，这种情况下，电子设备关联运行第一应用程序和第二应用程序。
可选地，本申请实施例中，若M个等级按照等级数值从小至大的顺序排列，则第一个等级不对应任何操作，且第二个等级至第M个等级中的每个等级均对应至少一个操作。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述方式1中，对于支持关联显示的两个应用程序，这两个应用程序之间的相同或相似操作越多，这两个应用程序之间的关联等级的范围越大。例如，假设应用5与应用6之间的相同和相似操作的数量为1个，应用7和应用8之间的相同或相似操作为3个；又假设等级0对应0个关联操作、等级1对应1个关联操作，等级2对应5个关联操作；那么，可以看出，应用5与应用6之间具有2个等级，分别为等级0和等级2；应用7和应用8之间具有3个等级，分别为等级0、等级1和等级2。即可以基于这两个应用程序中的关联操作的数量，划分两个应用程序之间的关联等级范围分级，以满足用户的实际使用需求。对于不同的应用程序，提供不同的关联等级。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述方式1中，电子设备可以按照第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的重要程度、使用频率或者操作便捷性等，将该P个关联操作与上述M个等级对应。具体的，一个关联操作的重要程度越高，上述M个等级中对应该操作的等级越多；一个操作对的重要程度越低，上述M个等级中对应该操作的等级越少。或者，一个操作对的使用频率越高，上述M个等级中对应该操作的等级越多；一个操作对的使用频率越高，上述M个等级中对应该操作的等级越少。又或者，一个操作对的操作便捷性越高，上述M个等级中对应该操作的等级越多；一个操作的操作便捷性越低，上述M个等级中对应该操作的等级越少。
为了更清楚地描述本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法，下面再结合具体实例对第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级、以及各个等级对应的操作的对应关系进行示例性地说明。示例性地，假设上述关联等级包括4(即M＝4)个等级，且按照等级的数值从小至大的顺序依次为：等级0、等级1、等级2和等级3；第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间包括3个关联操作，分别为(操作a1，操作b1)、(操作a2，操作b2)，以及(操作a3，操作b3)，其中，操作a i(i＝1，2，3)为第一应用程序中的操作；b j(j＝1，2，3)为第二应用程序中的操作。那么，关联等级、关联等级中的各个等级对应的操作之间的对应关系如下表1所示。
表1
Figure PCTCN2021098360-appb-000001
如上述表1所示，首先，等级0不对应任何操作。等级1对应操作c1，该操作c1包括操作a1和操作b1。等级2对应操作c1和操作c2，其中，该操作c1包括操作a1和操作b1，操作c2包括操作a2和操作b2。等级3对应操作c1、操作c2和操作c3，该操作c1包括操作a1和操作b1，操作c2包括操作a2和操作b2，操作c3包括操作a3和操作b3。
进一步地，假设电子设备按照关联操作的重要程度将3个关联操作与M个等级对应，那么，可以看出，操作c1可以为上述3个操作对中，重要程度最高的操作；操作c2的重要程度小于操作对c1的重要程度；操作c3的重要程序小于操作c2的重要程度。
示例性地，本申请实施例中，上述表1中的操作c1，即(操作a1，操作b1)可以为(查找功能，查找功能)，上述表1中的操作c2，即(操作a2，操作b2)可以为(评论功能，评论功能)，以及上述表1中的操作c3，即(操作a3，操作b3)可以为(控制切换至下一页，切换至下一页)。
方式2
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述方式2，即关联等级用于指示第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联操作的重要程度中，该关联等级的数值越大，该关联等级指示的关联操作的重要程度越高。
例如，假设第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级包括3个等级，分别为等级0、等级1和等级2，且等级0不对应任何操作，等级1对应操作c1和操作c2；等级2对应操作c3、操作c4和操作c5；那么，操作c1和操作c2的重要程度低于操作c3、操作c4和操作c5的重要程度。
对于方式2中的其他描述，具体可以参见上述方式1中的相关描述，为了避免重复此处不再赘述。
可选地，本申请实施例中，为了提高用户的体验感，电子设备可以在用户执行第二输入之前，或在电子设备响应于第二输入之后，以预设透明度显示上述调节控件。
可选地，本申请实施例中，电子设备可以在显示第一界面和第二界面时，直接将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级调节至一个预设等级。
下面分别通过上述一种可能的实现方式和上述另一种可能的实现方式对本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法进行示例性地描述。
一种可能的实现方式：即上述调节控件具体包括滑动区域和设置在该滑动区域的滑块。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述一种可能的实现方式中，上述S204具体可以通过下述的S204a实现，且上述S203具体可以替换为下述的S203a。
S204a、电子设备响应于第二输入，控制滑块在滑动区域滑动，并根据该滑块在该滑动区域的位置，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级。
S203a、电子设备接收用户对滑块的第二输入。
可选地，本申请实施例中，电子设备可以根据第二输入的输入轨迹，控制滑块在滑动区域内滑动。其中，第二输入的输入轨迹可以包括以下任意一项：第二输入的输入方向、第二输入的输入形状、第二输入的输入起始位置和第二输入的输入结束位置。
本申请实施例中，电子设备可以预先设置关联等级与滑动区域之间的对应关系， 从而电子设备可以根据滑块在滑动区域的位置，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述第二输入具体可以为用户对上述滑块的拖动输入。
对于第二输入的描述，具体可以参见上述S203中对第二输入的相关描述，为了避免重复，此处不再赘述。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述一种可能的实现方式中，假设上述滑动区域包括M个子区域，上述关联等级包括M个等级，其中，一个子区域对应一个等级，M为大于1的整数。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在上述一种可能的实现方式中，上述S204a具体可以通过下述的S204a1实现。
S204a1、在滑块从第一子区域滑动到第二子区域的情况下，电子设备将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级从第一等级调节至第二等级。
其中，第一子区域和第二子区域可以为上述M个子区域中的不同子区域，第一等级和第二等级为上述M个等级中的不同等级，第一等级可以为第一子区域对应的等级，第二等级可以为第二子区域对应的等级。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述滑动区域中的M个子区域对应的等级可以按照第二预设方向依次增大。第二预设方向可以为向上的方向，向下的方向，向左的方向，向右的方向、顺时针方向，或者逆时针方向等任意可能的方向，其中，向上、向下、向左、向右、顺时针和逆时针，均是相对于显示该滑动区域的显示屏为例进行示意的。
下面再结合图3对S203a和S204a1进行示例性地说明。
示例性地，假设上述滑动区域包括3(即M＝3)个子区域，分别为：第一子区域、第二子区域和第三子区域；上述关联等级具体可以包括3个等级，分别为：等级1、等级2和等级3，且第一子区域对应等级1、第二子区域对应等级2，以及第三子区域对应等级3；那么，如图3中的(a)所示，电子设备可以显示调节控件32，在第一显示区域显示“聊天”的界面30，在第二显示区域显示“购物1”的界面31，该调节控件32包括一个滑动区域320和设置在该滑动区域320中的一个滑块321，且滑块321处于滑动区域320中的第一子区域322；这种情况下，用户可以拖动滑块321(例如，可以按照图3中的(a)中所示的箭头方向拖动滑块321)，即电子设备接收到用户对滑块的第二输入，然后电子设备响应于第二输入，如图3中的(b)所示，电子设备在控制滑块321从第一子区域322滑动到第二子区域323的情况下，将第一应该用程序与第二应用程序的关联等级从等级1调节至等级2。
可以理解，若用户需求降低“聊天1”与“购物1”之间关联等级，则只需把滑块重新向上滑即可，这样，“聊天1”与“购物1”就可以重新回到较低的关联程度，当滑块回到最上端(例如第一子区域)时，“聊天1”与“购物1”之间的关联等级最低，此时“聊天1”与“购物1”之间可以没有任何操作关联，这种情况下，这“聊天1”与“购物1”就成为保持当前页面的两个独立应用程序，也即回到类似于传统分屏的模式。如此，用户可以通过下滑滑块，触发电子设备增加两个应用程序之间的程度，实现关联操作或关联显示，以便于在进行关联显示时，显示更多的信息；且可以通过上滑触发两个应用程序保存当前页面，且解除关联显示，从而可以进行不干扰的独立 操作。
本申请实施例中，由于滑动区域的各个子区域与关联等级中的各个等级之间一一对应，因此可以提高电子设备调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级的精确性。
本申请实施例中，由于电子设备可以根据滑块在滑动区域的位置，调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级，因此，一方面用户可以直观地看到电子设备对第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级的调节过程，从而可以提高用户体验感；另一方面，用户可以根据其实际使用需求，触发电子设备将滑块移动到滑动区域中，对应满足其实际使用需求的位置，从而可以提高电子设备调节该关联等级的准确性。
另一种可能的实现方式：上述调节控件具体包括M个子控件，M为大于1的整数。
可选地，本申请实施例中，在另一种可能的实现方式中，假设上述调节控件包括M个子控件，上述关联等级包括M个等级，且一个子控件对应一个等级，M为大于1的整数。那么，上述S204具体可以通过下述的S204b实现。上述S203具体可以替换为下述的S203b实现。
S204b、电子设备响应于第二输入，将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级调节至与目标子控件对应的等级。
S203b、电子设备接收用户对M个子控件中的目标子控件的第二输入。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述目标子控件M个子控件中的任意一个子控件。
可选地，本申请实施例中，电子设备接收到用户对目标子控件的第二输入之后，可以先将目标子控件对应的等级与原等级进行比对，若目标子控件对应的等级与该原等级不同，则电子设备可以将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级调节至与目标子控件对应的等级；若目标子控件对应的等级与该原等级不同，则电子设备可以保持原等级不变，并结束调节动作。其中，该原等级为用户执行第二输入之前，第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级。
可选地，本申请实施例中，第二输入具体可以为用户对目标子控件的点击输入、长按输入、重按输入等任意可能的输入。对于第二输入的输入形式的描述，具体可以参见上述S203中对第二输入的相关描述，为了避免重复，此处不再赘述。
下面再结合图4对S203b和S204b进行示例性地说明。
示例性地，如图4所示，假设电子设备显示调节控件42，在第一显示区域显示“聊天”的界面40，在第二显示区域显示“购物1”的界面41，该调节控件42包括3(即M＝3)个子控件)，分别为子控件421、子控件422和子控件423；“聊天”与“购物1”之间的关联等级包括3个等级，分别为等级1、等级2和等级3；又假设子控件421对应等级1、子控件422对应等级2、子控件423对应等级3；且用户执行第二输入之前，“聊天”与“购物1”之间的关联等级为等级3；那么，如图4所示，用户可以在子控件422(即目标子控件)上点击，即电子设备接收到用户对M个子控件中的目标子控件的第二输入，然后电子设备响应于第二输入，将“聊天”与“购物1”之间的关联等级从等级3调节至与等级2，即电子设备将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级调节至与目标子控件对应的等级。
本申请实施例中，由于调节控件中的每个子控件可以对应关联等级中的一个关联 等级，因此用户可以直接对对应的子控件输入，以触发电子设备将关联等级调节至满足用户的实际使用需求的等级，而无需用户触发电子设备反复对关联等级进行调节，从而可以简化调节关联等级的过程，提高调节关联等级的速度。如此可以提高用户体验感。
本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法，由于电子设备可以在同时显示第一界面和第二界面时，即根据第二界面对应的第二应用程序与第一界面对应的第一应用程序之间的关联关系，显示用于调节第一应用程序和第二应用程序之间的关联等级的调节控件，因此，用户可以根据其实际使用需求，触发电子设备灵活调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级，从而，电子设备可以以不同关联等级显示第一应用程序的界面和第二应用程序的界面，如此，可以提高电子设备同时显示多个应用程序的界面的灵活性。
进一步地，由于第一应用程序与第二应用程序的关联等级可以指示第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联程度，而该关联程度决定了这两个应用程序之间是否可以关联操作，以及关联操作的程度，因此基于本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法，用户可以通过触发电子设备将第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级调节为满足其对第一应用程序与第二应用程序关联操作需求的关联等级，从而可以提高用户的体验感。
可选地，本申请实施例中，电子设备执行上述S202之后，即电子设备显示调节控件，在第一显示区域显示第一界面，在第二显示区域显示第二界面之后；若第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的当前所处的关联等级(例如下述的目标等级)对应至少一个操作，则用户可以在这两个应用程序(即第一应用程序和第二应用程序)中的任意一个应用程序的界面上执行用于触发该至少一个操作中的某个操作(例如下述目标操作)的输入(例如下述第三输入)，以触发电子设备控制第一应用程序和第二应用程序均执行目标操作。
示例性地，本申请实施例中，结合上述图2，如图5所示，在上述S204之后，本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法还可以包括下述的步骤205和步骤206。
S205、电子设备接收用户对目标界面的第三输入。
其中，上述第三输入可以为用于触发上述目标等级对应的至少一个操作中的目标操作的输入，目标界面可以为第一应用程序的界面或为第二应用程序的界面。
本申请实施例中，上述目标等级可以为电子设备接收用户的第二输入之前之前，第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的等级，即电子设备调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级之前第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间所处的等级；也即调节前的等级。或者，上述目标等级可以为电子设备接收用户的第二输入之后，第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的等级，即电子设备调节第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级之后，第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间所处的等级；也即调节后的等级。具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
可以理解，本申请实施例中，上述目标等级对应的至少一个操作中的不同操作为第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的不同关联操作。
可选地，本申请实施例中，当目标界面为第一应用程序的界面时，目标界面具体 可以为与上述第一界面相同的界面，也可以为与上述第一界面不同的界面；相应地，当目标界面为第二应用程序的界面时，目标界面具体可以为与上述第二界面相同的界面，也可以为与上述第二界面不同的界面。具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
可选地，本申请实施例中，上述第三输入可以为对目标界面的点击输入、长按输入、重按输入、滑动输入，拖动输入，以及在目标界面中键入信息(例如键入关键词)等任意可能形式的输入，具体可以根据实际使用需求确定，本发明实施例不作限定。
需要说明的是，本申请实施例中，对第三输入的输入形式的描述仅为示例性说明，具体可以根据目标操作与输入的对应关系确定。
S206、电子设备响应于第三输入，控制第一应用程序和第二应用程序执行目标操作。
本申请实施例中，电子设备接收到用户的第三输入之后，电子设备响应于第三输入，可以先确定第三输入对应的操作，并将该操作与目标等级对应的至少一个操作比对，若至少一个操作中包括该操作，则电子设备可以控制第一应用程序和第二应用程序执行该操作；即执行上述S206；若至少一个操作中不包括该操作，则电子设备可以控制目标界面对应的应用程序执行该操作。
可选地，本申请实施例中，结合上述S204中的相关描述可知，上述目标操作包括两个相同或相似的子操作。假设这两个子操作分别为第一子操作和第二子操作，其中，第一子操作为第一应用程序中的操作，第二子操作为第二应用程序中的操作；那么，电子设备控制第一应用程序和第二应用程序执行目标操作具体可以为，控制第一电子设备控制第一应用程序执行第一子操作，并控制第二应用程序执行第二子操作。
需要说明的是，本申请实施例中，上述第三输入具体对应第一子操作和第二子操作中的任意一个的输入；由于第一子操作与第二子操作为构成一个关联操作，即第一子操作与第二子操作关联；因此电子设备可以基于第一子操作查找到第二子操作，并可以基于第二子操作查找到第一子操作。
可选地，本申请实施例中，以目标操作包括第一子操作和第二子操作，第一子操作为第一应用程序中的操作，且第二子操作为第二应用程序中的操作；以及目标界面为第一应用程序的界面为例，对电子设备控制第二应用程序执行目标操的方法进行示例性地说明。
方法1：电子设备可以基于第一子操作，获取与第一子操作关联的第二子操作，然后控制第二应用程序执行第二子操作。
方法2：电子设备在第一应用程序和第二应用程序之间设置指令接口，从而第一应用程序可以通过该指令接口向第二应用程序发送指示与第一子操作关联的第二子操作的指示信息，从而，第二应用程序接收到该指示信息之后，可以自动执行第二子操作。
下面再结合图6对本发明实施例提供的应用程序控制方法进行示例性地说明。
示例性地，假设第一应用程序与第二应用程序之间的关联等级为等级2(为调节控件指示的等级)，等级2对应搜索操作，即(搜索操作，搜索操作)、和控制切换至下一个的操作，即(控制切换至下一个的操作，控制切换至下一个的操作)；且第 一应用程序和第二应用程序均为“视频”，即第一应用程序与第二应用程序为同一应用程序；那么，如图6中的(a)所示，电子设备在处于展开状态的折叠屏60上显示调节控件，在该折叠屏60的第一显示区域显示第一视频的播放界面61，在该折叠屏60的第二显示区域显示第一视频的评论界面62；从而，用户可以在第一视频的播放界面61(即目标界面)上上划，即电子设备接收到用户对目标界面的第三输入，然后，电子设备响应于该上划输入，如图6中的(b)所示，电子设备控制“视频”将第一显示区域显示的第一视频的播放界面切换为第二视频的播放界面63，控制“视频”将第二显示区域上显示的第一视频的评论界面切换为第二视频的评论界面64，其中，第二视频为第一视频的下一个视频；即电子设备控制第一应用程序和第二应用程序执行目标操作。
