Embodiment approach 1

[0038] One embodiment of the present invention is an application program update management device that monitors the activation status of the application program installed in the portable information device, presents the user with information on the frequency of use of the application program according to the activation status, and when the user prompts the user to delete the target When selecting an application, it is recommended to install the application instead.

[0039] Hereinafter, first, a general description will be given of a portable information device, and then a detailed description will be given of the application program update management device according to this embodiment.

[0040] figure 1 An overall configuration of a network system including a portable information device 10 equipped with the application update management function according to the present embodiment is shown.

[0041]The portable information device 10 is any hardware that can be moved with t...

Embodiment approach 2

[0091] exist Figure 9 In the example of , after the terminal application program selected by the user is deleted, the alternative application program prompting unit 120 suggests an alternative application program. It can also be replaced, it is recommended to replace the application before deleting the application in the terminal.

[0092] Figure 11 An example of a screen corresponding to Embodiment 2 is shown. when in Figure 7 When the user selects an application to be deleted on the screen of , the window 210 is displayed by the alternative application presentation unit 120 . A message 218 prompting to confirm whether the selected in-terminal application can be deleted and alternative application information 220 suggested instead are displayed in the window 210 . When the user selects the OK key 212 , the application in the terminal is deleted by the application deletion unit 118 . When the user selects the install key 214 , the application in the terminal is deleted...

Embodiment approach 3

[0096] The frequency of use notifying unit 108 may also select an in-terminal application suggested to the user for deletion according to the frequency of use, and the user instruction receiving unit 116 receives whether or not the user agrees to the selection. That is, instead of explicitly presenting the use frequency information to the user as in Embodiments 1 and 2, the use frequency notification unit 108 selects in-terminal applications with low use frequency and presents them to the user.

[0097] Figure 13 An example of a screen corresponding to Embodiment 3 is shown. The frequency of use notification unit 108 selects an application with a low frequency of use among in-terminal applications as deletion candidates in response to an arbitrary trigger event, and sends it to the replacement application presentation unit 120 . The alternative application presentation unit 120 selects the alternative application information corresponding to the in-terminal application of th...

Abstract

A use frequency notifying unit (108) makes out use frequency information of applications in each terminal device in accordance with a record of starting-up states of the applications in each terminal device and offers a part or all the use frequency information of such applications in each terminal device to users. When applications in each terminal device are deleted, an information storing unit(112) holds alternative application information for applications to be offered to users as alternative ones in place of the deleted applications in such a form that the alternative applications correspond to the applications in each terminal device. A client assign receiving unit (116) receives an instruction of applications subjected to deletion by users out of such applications in each terminal device that their use frequency information is shown. An alternative application offering unit (120) selects alternative application information corresponding to applications subjected to deletion from an information storing unit (112) and offers them to users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology for organizing application programs loaded on a terminal. Background technique [0002] In recent years, various application programs have been installed in information terminals represented by personal computers and mobile phones from the time of purchase. However, it is almost non-existent that users use all these applications. In this case, it is preferable to check the usage status of the applications and delete unnecessary applications. In particular, in a portable terminal, since the storage area is usually limited, it is highly necessary to organize applications. [0003] As such a technique, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique in which a client device is requested to notify the usage status of a plurality of installed programs, and a detection is performed based on the usage status notified from the client device in response to the request. A program to uninstall among multiple programs....
