Application program management method and application program management device

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses an application program management method and an application program management device. The method includes acquiring at least one application group in a terminal, wherein each application group comprises at least one application program; acquiring a group icon of each application group and application icons of the application programs in each application group; arraying the group icons of the application groups in a display area of the terminal in a first preset direction; arraying the application icons of the application programs in the same application group in the display area of the terminal in a second preset direction. By the application program management method and the application program management device, operation efficiency can be improved, and convenience in application program management can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of electronic technology, in particular to an application program management method and device thereof. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of electronic technology, smart terminals such as mobile phones, tablets, and smart watches can be seen everywhere in life, and more and more smart terminals can support users to install and delete applications by themselves. The interface of the smart terminal is used to manage applications and corresponding icons, so that users can find and start the required applications. There are two existing application management methods: the first is to map all applications in the terminal to The application icons in the terminal are arranged in the form of a matrix (nine-square grid); the second is to classify the applications in the terminal into different folders according to the type, and select individual applications in the folder to display them in ...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] When there are more and more applications in the terminal, if the terminal uses the first method to manage the applications, it is not easy for the user to find the desired application icon among a bunch of messy and complicated icons, so it is necessary to However, if the second method is used for classification management, since the icons are classified into folders, it takes one more operation to view the required application icons, and once the folder on the desktop changes After a long time, because only the thumbnails of individual icons can be seen, the icon identification will be unclear, which will increase the difficulty of finding

Therefore, when the above two methods are used to find the icon of the application program, the search is complicated, which reduces the operation efficiency and affects the convenience of the terminal.
