The method can be executed by the device for hiding application icons, wherein the device can be implemented by software and / or hardware, and can be built into the mobile device as a part of the mobile device middle. Such as figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0035] Step 201, when the hide application icon event is triggered, obtain the information of the target application selected by the user and the information of the host application.

[0036] Step 202, generating association information between the target application and the host application according to the information of the target application and the information of the host application.

[0037] Step 203 : Control the display screen to shield and display the icon of the target application according to the association information.

[0038] Step 204, when the event of dis...

Embodiment 3

[0043] image 3 A schematic flowchart of the method for hiding application icons provided by Embodiment 3 of the present invention, the method can be executed by the device for hiding application icons, wherein the device can be implemented by software and / or hardware, and can be built into the mobile device as a part of the mobile device middle. Such as image 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0044]Step 301 , when it is detected that the icon of the target application and the icon of the host application are selected in a first preset manner, display a first dialog box for confirming the target application.

[0045] Exemplarily, the first preset manner is to simultaneously press and hold the icon of the target application and the icon of the host application until the long press time reaches a first preset time threshold. When the user wants to trigger the event of hiding the application icon, he can simultaneously press the icon of the target application and the icon of...
