Embodiment 1

[0051] Please refer to figure 1 , figure 1 The flow chart of the method for hiding the desktop icon of the application provided by the embodiment of the present invention, such as figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0052] 101: Obtain the setting information of the application to be hidden through the user process;

[0053]Specifically, an application program can be installed on the front end of the system, and the application program can be started when the system is turned on. After the application program is started, a user process is constructed. The purpose of the user process is to ensure that the service process can Before the launcher obtains the setting information of the application to be hidden obtained and generated by the user process, especially the setting information related to the application to be hidden and the corresponding package name and other data.

[0054] 102: Send a broadcast message to delete the application to be hidden through the user pr...

Embodiment 2

[0061] The second embodiment is a refinement based on the first embodiment, and provides a detailed application scenario for the method provided by the first embodiment.

[0062] Please refer to figure 2 , figure 2 The flow chart of the method for hiding the desktop icon of the application provided by the embodiment of the present invention, such as figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0063] 201: Obtain the setting information of the application to be hidden through the user process;

[0064] This step is consistent with step 101 in the embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0065] It should be noted that, for a booting process, the setting information of the application to be hidden is the data collected and stored locally by the user process. During the boot process, before the launcher is successfully loaded, the front-end activity component (Activity) of the user process cannot be displayed, because the data cannot be collected through the user process d...

Embodiment 3

[0086] In order to realize the method for hiding the desktop icon of the application provided by the embodiment of the present invention, please refer to image 3 , image 3 A schematic diagram of a device for hiding application desktop icons provided by an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in image 3 As shown, the device includes:

[0087] An obtaining unit 301, configured to obtain setting information of an application to be hidden through a user process;

[0088] The sending unit 302 is configured to send a broadcast message for deleting the application to be hidden through the user process according to the setting information;

[0089] The authority escalation unit 303, through the service process with superuser authority, performs authority escalation processing on the broadcast message, and promotes the authority of the broadcast message to the superuser authority;

[0090] The deleting unit 304 deletes the desktop icon of the application to be hidden on ...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a hidden application desktop icon method and device. The method includes the steps that setting information of application to be hidden is obtained through the user process; according to the setting information, the broadcast message of deleting the application to be hidden is sent to the desktop through the user process; permission elevation processing is carried out on the broadcast message through the service process with the superuser permission, the permission of the broadcast message is elevated to the superuser permission; the desktop icon of the application to be hidden is deleted on the desktop according to the broadcast message with the permission elevated. As the broadcast information has the superuser permission, the desktop icon of the application to be hidden can be deleted on the desktop, and the technical effect of hiding the desktop icon of the application is achieved; as only the desktop icon of the hidden application is deleted in the method provided by the embodiment, and normal operation, such as normal start of the application or start of a background program, of the application is not affected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electronic technology, in particular to a method and device for hiding application desktop icons. Background technique [0002] Taking the Android platform as an example, the mobile terminal device provides a user interface through a launcher to realize human-computer interaction with the user. The launcher provides a desktop on which icons of installed applications can be displayed. By clicking on these icons, the corresponding application can be started. For privacy protection, users sometimes do not want certain applications to be discovered or run by unauthorized persons, so as to protect their personal privacy. In the prior art, the following two methods are generally adopted for protection: [0003] The first way is to add a program lock to the program. When the user clicks on the relevant icon, a verification program will be run first, and the real application will be loaded and run only after passing the ...
