Mobile terminal for invoking programs or functions through user-defined buttons and method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of mobile terminals, in particular to a mobile terminal and a method for calling programs or functions through user-defined keys. The mobile terminal includes several keys, and it also includes: a storage module for storing at least one key mode and the corresponding relationship between each key mode and a program or function; a setting module for configuring the key mode in the storage module and its relationship with The corresponding relationship of the program or function is set and changed; the detection module is used to detect the external button operation; the judgment module is used to judge whether the button operation matches any button mode in the storage module; the processing module is used as the judgment module When it is judged that the key operation matches any key mode in the storage module, it invokes the program or function corresponding to the key mode. The method is used to implement the mobile terminal. It is easy to operate and easy to use.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mobile terminals, in particular to a mobile terminal and a method for calling programs or functions through user-defined keys. Background technique: [0002] With the rapid development of mobile terminal intelligent platforms, the rapid upgrading of mobile terminal hardware and the increase of software developers serving mobile terminals, the applications suitable for mobile platforms are becoming more and more extensive, and the applications on mobile terminals are also increasing. The variety of applications makes it more difficult for users to find and open the target application, increasing the user's operational burden, and due to the different needs and preferences of different users, the shortcut keys preset by the system can no longer meet the individual needs of users. [0003] The current mainstream methods of invoking the target program or function are as follows: [0004] 1. Screen shortcuts...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. Screen shortcuts, such as adding application icons on the screen desktop, or setting shortcut buttons to activate applications through the status bar at the top of the screen; the disadvantage is that the operation steps are still relatively complicated, and the screen needs to be turned on and unlocked when the screen is black , find the shortcut menu, and then click to enter;

[0005] 2. Voice commands, such as saying "turn on the alarm clock" to the mobile phone to quickly enter the alarm clock application; its disadvantage is that it has relatively high requirements for the environment, not only must it be relatively quiet, but also the user's pronunciation must be clear without affecting others;

[0006] 3. Gesture commands, such as drawing a "C" on the screen to quickly open the camera; its disadvantage is that it is easy to affect other touch operations such as up / down / left / right sliding on the screen, and it is easy to trigger by mistake;

[0007] 4. Button commands, such as pressing and holding the HOME button and the lock button at the same time to achieve quick screenshots; the disadvantages are that the button functions cannot be customized, and the button method is too single, and most buttons on the mobile terminal cannot be used effectively, etc.
