Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of terminal screen display, in particular to a screen lock method, a terminal and a screen lock device. Background technique [0002] In the handheld device industry including mobile phones, with the advancement of technology and users' demand for large screens, handheld device manufacturers tend to use larger displays, and most of them use touchable displays. Handheld devices have a larger surface area. [0003] For handheld devices with a large screen touch range, when the screen is on and the touch control is in effect, it is easy for the user to accidentally touch the touch screen of the device, thereby sending wrong instructions to the application displayed on the touch screen.

Problems solved by technology

[0003] For handheld devices with a large screen touch range, when the screen is on and the touch is in effect, it is easy for the user to accidentally touch the touch screen of the device, thus sending wrong instructions to the application displayed on the touch screen

In order to avoid accidental touches, the hand holding the device can only try to avoid random touches within the touch range, which will cause poor comfort, especially for one-handed operation, or use a larger When holding a device, it is prone to inconvenient operation, wrong operation, hand fatigue, or the problem of slipping of the handheld device, resulting in a poor user experience

[0004] In some current solutions to the false touch phenomenon, in addition to locking the entire screen of the mobile phone when the user is not using the terminal, and unlocking the screen when it needs to be used, in addition to directly locking the entire touch screen, in some In the application, such as a video player program, it also provides functions such as locking the entire screen outside the unlock button by touching a virtual button. In the locked state, if you touch the touch screen area other than the unlock button, the application will not respond to the operation until it is unlocked. After the button is unlocked and restored by touch, the entire touch screen will respond to the touch operation, but the disadvantage is that this function often depends on the design of the specific application itself, and can only be used in specific applications with this function, not in other user interfaces. At the same time, different applications have different user interfaces and different operation methods, which makes it difficult for users to master, and users cannot flexibly adjust the touch-locked screen area
