Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose an icon display method and a terminal. The method disclosed by the embodiments of the present invention comprises: receiving an instruction of a user for setting an invisible icon; acquiring an identifier of an invisible target icon selected by the user and a final resident position of the target icon; and performing image processing on the target icon according to the identifier of the target icon and the final resident position of the target icon, so as to fuse the target icon with a current desktop background picture, and obtaining an invisible display effect of the target icon. By use of the method and the terminal disclosed by the embodiments of the present invention, user privacy is protected, cumbersome hiding and encryption processes are avoided, and excellent user experience is achieved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of icon processing, in particular to an icon display method and terminal. Background technique [0002] Icon refers to an icon that is located on any display interface (such as the launcher desktop) and is used to provide an application entry or trigger an operation for an application or a set of predetermined operations.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, in order to avoid leakage of privacy, the existing technology adopts the method of setting the icon with a fingerprint lock or a password lock, and only designated users can use it. In this way, although the icon can only be used by a specific user, the icon is displayed on the interface without distinction, and bystanders It can be seen; there is another way to hide the icon in any way, similar to the hidden folder in windows.
