[0044] refer to figure 2 , which is a flow chart of the method for starting an application program in the electronic device provided by the first embodiment. The method includes the following steps:

[0045] S110. Display a contact list. Contact data can be stored in figure 1 memory 104 as shown. For each contact, the contact data may include contents of multiple fields, for example, phone number, name, address, instant messaging account number, bank account number, or all other possible information. In the displayed contact list, the contents of one or more of these fields may be displayed. image 3 An example of a contact list is shown, where names of contacts are displayed in the contact list. In the contact list shown in the figure, each item represents a contact.

[0046] S120. Detect a first input operation for a target contact in the contact list. The first input operation is for example via figure 1 The shown input module is input, and its specific examples ma...

[0054] The second embodiment provides a method for starting an application program in an electronic device, which is similar to the first embodiment, except that, refer to Figure 8 , step S130 includes the following steps:

[0055] S210 , for each menu item, check whether the account information associated with the target contact and the application corresponding to the menu item is available; if available, execute step S220 , otherwise execute step S230 . The above-mentioned associated account information may include, for example, a phone number, an instant messaging account, a bank account, and any other possible account information.

[0056] S220. Display corresponding menu items in a first style.

[0057] S230. Display the corresponding menu item in the second style.

[0058] The above-mentioned first style and second style are not specifically limited, but they should be different so that users can easily distinguish the difference between them. For example, in the fi...

[0065] The third embodiment provides a method for starting an application program in an electronic device, which is similar to the first embodiment, the difference is that, refer to Figure 11 , the following steps are also included between step S140 and step S150:

[0066] S310. Check whether the associated account information corresponding to the target contact and the menu item is available; if available, execute step S150; otherwise, execute step S320.

[0067] S320. Display a piece of prompt information.

[0068] For example, in Figure 6 In the interface shown, when the user clicks on the "Transfer" menu item through the touch screen, it is detected whether the bank account information of the target contact is available, and if it is available, the transfer application is started, that is, entered Figure 7 interface shown. If it is not available, a prompt message may pop up to prompt that due to lack of account information, the corresponding function cannot be perfor...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and device for starting an application program in an electronic device. The method includes the steps that a contact list is displayed; first input operation specific to one target contact in the contact list is detected; an operation menu is displayed responding to the first input operation, wherein the operation menu includes a plurality of menu items, and each menu item corresponds to one or more application programs; a second input operation specific to one target menu item in the menu items is detected; responding to the second input operation, an application program starting request is initiated to start the application programs corresponding to the target menu items, and the application program starting request includes information of the target contact. The method and device can save time of starting the application programs for a user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an application program interaction technology, in particular to a method and device for starting an application program in an electronic device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, various electronic devices, such as smart phones, tablet computers, notebook computers, etc., have developed rapidly both in terms of hardware performance and richness of application programs. People also become more dependent on these electronic devices to communicate with each other in daily life and work. [0003] For example, users can use the address book application to manage their own contact list. Through this application, users can send text messages to different contacts, make calls, and view other saved contact information such as addresses, birthdays, etc. . Users can also communicate with other users through instant messaging applications. It can be understood that an instant messaging application generally also maintains a...
