Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for controlling a smart television. The smart television at least has a parental control mode and a normal mode. In the normal mode, an application icon display interface of the smart television displays M application icons. First, a first parental control instruction input by a user is acquired, the smart television is switched from the normal mode to the parental control mode in response to the first parental control instruction, and a first configuration file on a user interface is activated, wherein the first configuration file is provided with the display attribute of each of the M application icons, and the display attribute includes display and hide. Finally, N application icons are displayed on the application icon display interface, wherein the display attributes of the N application icons are 'display', and N<=M. By adopting the method and the device, the (M-N) applications not suitable for children can be hidden so as to achieve the purpose of making the smart television under parental control.
