Application upgrade method and system

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses an application upgrading method and system. The method includes: the mobile terminal detects an upgrade instruction for any application of the mobile terminal and outputs prompt information for prompting whether to upgrade the application at the local terminal or an external terminal; the mobile terminal detects the input confirmation instruction, and confirms the instruction It is used to instruct to upgrade the application on the external terminal; the mobile terminal reads the address information of the external terminal and reports the address information of the external terminal together with the credits of the application to the server; the server compares the credits corresponding to the application with the stored application Accumulate the corresponding historical point accumulation value to obtain the new point accumulation value corresponding to the application; send an application upgrade package matching the new point accumulation value corresponding to the application to the external terminal according to the address information of the external terminal; the external terminal receives the application upgrade package and upgrade the application on the external terminal. The application of the external terminal far away from the user can be upgraded in time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to an application upgrading method and system. Background technique [0002] With the widespread popularity of terminals such as mobile phones, tablet computers, and notebook computers, it has become a very common phenomenon for the same user to have multiple different terminals at the same time. In practical applications, the same type of applications can be installed on multiple different terminals owned by the same user at the same time, but in practice, it is found that the number of applications of the same type installed on multiple different Versions may be different. For example, among multiple different terminals owned by the same user, the version of the instant messaging application installed on the tablet computer may be higher than the version of the instant messaging application installed on the mobile phone. At this time, if the user If you operate an ...

In practical applications, the same type of applications can be installed on multiple different terminals owned by the same user at the same time, but in practice, it is found that the number of applications of the same type installed on multiple different Versions may be different. For example, among multiple different terminals owned by the same user, the version of the instant messaging application installed on the tablet computer may be higher than the version of the instant messaging application installed on the mobile phone. At this time, if the user When operating an instant messaging application on a mobile phone, it will be difficult to obtain the same experience as operating an instant messaging application on a tablet

And in order to obtain the same experience as when operating the instant messaging application on the tablet computer, the user just has to operate the mobile phone to upgrade the instant messaging application, and the limitation of this upgrade method is that if the mobile phone is far away from the user, the user just can't operate the mobile phone in time to upgrade the instant messaging application
