Embodiment Construction

[0034] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0035] The application program management method of the present invention can be realized by the background service or background program of the terminal device (hereinafter collectively referred to as the background program). On the terminal device, application program tracking data for tracking usage frequency of installed application programs is established and maintained. In order to carry out the tracking cumulatively, the terminal device stores the application program tracking data on a non-volatile storage medium. The daemon detects events involving application usage and updates application tracking data based on detected events. At the same time, the background program updates the menu items in the menu for displaying the most frequently used application programs every predetermined menu update period. In addition, the background program prompts the ...

Abstract

The invention provides an application program managing method and a terminal device. The application program managing method includes the following steps that when the event that any application program in the terminal device is installed, or uninstalled or started is detected, application program trace data are updated according to the detected event and include application trace items of all the installed application programs, and each application tracing item includes application program identification and the number of times of use; every other preset first updating period, the application program trace items in the application program trace data are sorted according to the number of times of use, the application program trace items with the largest number of times of use are selected, wherein the number of the application program trace items is a first preset number, and the application programs indicated by the selected application program trace items are updated to be items in a specific menu in a user interface. The steps are executed by using background programs.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to an application program management method in a terminal device and a terminal device using the method, in particular to a method for determining the usage frequency of an application program by tracking application program events in a terminal device by using a background program, and according to the application A method for managing installed application programs using frequency data of programs and a terminal device using the method. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, various terminal devices including personal computers, tablet computers, and smart phones support the download and installation of a large number of application programs, and many users can install a large number of various application programs. However, there are few applications frequently used by users, and users must find the required applications in dazzling menus every time they use them, which wastes user time and seriously affects user exp...
