Mobile terminal application installation prompt method and system

Abstract

The present invention discloses a mobile terminal application installation prompt method and system. The method comprises that: a correspondence table between the size of an installation file containing various applications and the size of the storage space occupied after the application is successfully installed is set in advance in the mobile terminal; when the mobile terminal receives an installation operation instruction of the application, the mobile terminal obtains the size of the storage space occupied by the application which is successfully installed, from the correspondence table; and the mobile terminal compares the size of the storage space occupied by the application which is successfully installed with the size of the remaining storage space of the current mobile terminal, and determines whether the application can be installed. According to the method and system disclosed by the present invention, before the application is installed in the mobile terminal, whether the size of the remaining storage space of the current mobile terminal is sufficient is determined, so that the problem of the failed application installation caused by the insufficient storage space is avoided, and convenience is provided for users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mobile terminals, in particular to a method and system for prompting installation of mobile terminal application programs. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of mobile terminal technology and the widespread popularization of mobile terminals in people's lives, mobile terminals have become an indispensable entertainment tool in people's daily life. At present, the application market of mobile terminals is also a thriving scene. Various application programs with different or same functions have been developed one after another, and users who have mobile terminals also install these application programs in mobile terminals for various needs. After the installation file of the application program is downloaded to the mobile terminal, the installation fails occasionally, and a large part of the failure of installing the application program is caused by insufficient storage space of the mo...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

After the installation file of the application program is downloaded to the mobile terminal, the installation may occasionally fail. A large part of the failure of the application installation is due to insufficient storage space of the mobile terminal.

[0003] In the prior art, the mobile terminal downloads the installation file of the application program for installation. Before the installation is completed, the mobile terminal cannot estimate how much storage space the application program needs after installation. It often needs to be installed before it can be known. The installation time is often relatively long, and if the remaining storage space of the mobile terminal is insufficient, the installation will fail, which not only makes the mobile terminal experience a failed installation, but also greatly wastes the waiting time of the user, causing troubles to the user
