Backup method of application program in communication terminal and communication terminal

Abstract

The invention is applicable to the technical field of communication and provides a backup method of an application program in a communication terminal and the communication terminal. The backup method comprises the following steps of: detecting the current residual memory space of the communication terminal before downloading a new application program; obtaining the memory occupation value of the new application program; judging whether the current residual memory space is more than the memory occupation value of the new application program; if so, executing an application downloading step; otherwise, executing an application backup step; backing up at least one application program in the communication terminal into a server, automatically deleting the backup application programs in the communication terminal, and returning back to a memory judging step; and downloading the new application program to the communication terminal. Therefore, the problem that the installation is abandoned due to insufficient memory during or after the process of downloading the application program can be avoided, so that the time and communication flow of a user are effectively saved; and meanwhile, the user can selectively back up the application programs which are not usually used into the server, so as to facilitate the continuous use after the application programs are recovered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a method for backing up application programs in a communication terminal and the communication terminal. Background technique [0002] Due to the increasing development and popularization of communication technologies, more and more application programs have been developed for communication terminals such as mobile phones. As time goes by, many application programs may be installed in the user's communication terminals. The more application programs installed in the communication terminal, the more memory it takes up. Therefore, as long as there are application programs installed, the communication terminal must first calculate whether its memory is enough. When the user downloads a new application and installs it, if the memory space of the communication terminal is insufficient, a prompt will be given, and the new application may not be installed due to insufficient memor...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In view of the above defects, the object of the present invention is to provide a method for backing up application programs in a communication terminal and a communication terminal, which can detect whether the internal memory of the communication terminal is sufficient before downloading a new application program, avoiding the need for backup during or after the application program is downloaded. It was only after finding out that the memory was insufficient that the installation was given up, which effectively saved the user’s time and communication traffic; at the same time, the user can also choose to back up the existing applications that are not commonly used to the server for future use after restoration, and can completely save the existing applications. data with application
