[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] In order to better understand the implementation of the present invention, the sharing implementation of the application program in the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below.

[0039] When the second electronic device shares an application with the first electronic device, the second electronic device can be understood as the sending end of the application sharing, and the first electronic device can be understood as the receiving end of the application sharing. The second electronic device can run the target application and display the running interface of the target application on the virtual screen; when the second electronic device and the first electronic device are connected, the running interface of the target application displayed on the virtual screen is shared with the first electronic device.

[0040] It should be understood that the second electronic device sharing the running interface of the target application displayed on the virtual screen with the first electronic device can be understood as: the second electronic device records the virtual screen and the audio in the virtual screen to obtain target data, and shares the target data with the first electronic device, wherein the target data includes the display image sequence and audio sequence of the virtual screen.

[0041] Furthermore, the first electronic device can display the received operation interface, and upon receiving the user's operation based on the displayed operation interface, send corresponding operation instructions to the second electronic device to control the target application to perform the operation corresponding to the operation instruction, thereby realizing the sharing of applications between the second electronic device and the first electronic device.

[0042] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a flow chart of an application sharing method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method is applied to a first electronic device, such as Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0043] Step 101, receiving a first notification sent by a second electronic device, where the first notification is a notification received by the second electronic device in a standby state through a first application;

[0044] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first electronic device and the second electronic device can log in to the same or different device accounts. When the first electronic device and the second electronic device log in to the same device account, it can be assumed that the first electronic device and the second electronic device can share applications. When the first electronic device and the second electronic device log in to different device accounts, an application sharing authorization operation can be performed in advance so that the first electronic device and the second electronic device can share applications. The device account can be understood as an account used to bind the electronic device, for example, it can be understood as an iCloud account.

[0045] Optionally, when the first application of the second electronic device receives the first notification, it can first determine whether the second electronic device is currently in a standby state (being in a standby state can be understood as being in an inactive state, and being in a non-standby state can be understood as being in an active state or a running state. For example, in an optional embodiment, after the electronic device is unlocked in the standby state, it can be understood as a running state). If it is in a standby state, the received first notification is forwarded to the first electronic device. Optionally, the second electronic device can obtain the working state of an electronic device that can share an application with the second electronic device, and the working state includes a standby state and a running state; determine the first electronic device for receiving the first notification in the electronic device in the running state. The first electronic device can receive the first notification sent from one or more different second electronic devices.

[0046] The above-mentioned first application can be a system program of the second electronic device, or it can be a third-party application installed by the user on the second electronic device. The above-mentioned first notification can be understood as a system message pushed by the application server, or it can be an interactive message sent by other users. For example, when the application is WeChat, the first notification can be a voice message or text message sent by WeChat friends.

[0047] Step 102, displaying a prompt message corresponding to the first notification;

[0048] In an embodiment of the present invention, after a first electronic device receives a first notification sent by a second electronic device, it may display a prompt message corresponding to the first notification. The specific display form may be set according to actual needs. For example, the prompt message may be directly output and displayed, or the prompt message may be displayed after receiving a user operation. Displaying the prompt message corresponding to the first notification may be understood as displaying the prompt message corresponding to the unprocessed first notification. For example, in one embodiment, after receiving a certain first notification, a prompt message is directly output, and the user processes the first notification based on the prompt message. In another embodiment, after receiving a certain first notification, the corresponding prompt message is not displayed, and the received first notification is directly stored. Alternatively, the user is processing other things and does not process the displayed prompt message, but stores the first notification. When the user needs to process the first notification, the prompt message corresponding to the stored first notification may be displayed by inputting the corresponding operation.

[0049] It should be understood that the display form of the prompt message can be set according to actual needs, for example, it can include the device identifier, application identifier and preview information of the first notification. Optionally, when the first notification is a voice message in the WeChat application, the preview information can be "voice message sent by user A", and when the first notification is a text message in the WeChat application, the preview information can be "user A + message content".

[0050] Step 103, when receiving a first input for the prompt message, sending a request message to a target electronic device, the target electronic device being an electronic device in the second electronic device;

[0051] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first input may be a click operation, a slide operation, or a voice input, etc., which is not further limited herein. The first input may be understood as an operation of processing the target first notification, for example, an operation of reading the target first notification. Optionally, the user may click on the target prompt message among all prompt messages to implement the first input for the target prompt message, or the user may slide the target prompt message to implement the first input for the target prompt message.

[0052] It should be understood that when the number of second electronic devices is N and N is 1, the target electronic device is the second electronic device. When the number of second electronic devices is N and N is greater than or equal to 2, the target electronic device may be M electronic devices among the N second electronic devices, M is greater than or equal to 1, and M is less than or equal to N.

[0053] It should be understood that the above request message is used to request the target electronic device to share the second application. Specifically, when the target electronic device is connected to the first electronic device, the second application can be shared directly; when the target electronic device is not connected to the first electronic device, the connection between the target electronic device and the first electronic device can be first established based on the request message, and then the second application can be shared. Specifically, sharing the second application can be understood as: the target electronic device first runs the second application, and displays the running interface of the second application on the virtual screen, and finally shares the running interface of the second application with the first electronic device.

[0054] Step 104 , when receiving the running interface of the second application shared by the target electronic device in response to the request message, displaying the running interface of the second application, where the second application is the application of the target electronic device.

[0055] It should be understood that when the number of the second electronic devices is N and N is 1, the target electronic device is the second electronic device, and the second application is the first application.

[0056] When the number of second electronic devices is N, and N is greater than or equal to 2, the target electronic device may be M electronic devices among the N second electronic devices, where M is greater than or equal to 1, and M is less than or equal to N. It can be understood that the number of corresponding first application programs is K. The second application programs are L application programs among the K first application programs, where L is greater than or equal to 1, and L is less than or equal to K.

[0057] After the first electronic device receives the running interface of the second application, it will display the running interface of the second application, thereby achieving the purpose of application sharing. In this way, the user can process the first notification received by the second application of the target electronic device based on the running interface displayed by the first electronic device, thereby improving the timeliness of notification processing.

[0058] The embodiment of the present invention receives a first notification sent by a second electronic device, wherein the first notification is a notification received by the second electronic device in a standby state through an application; displays a prompt message corresponding to the first notification; upon receiving a first input for the prompt message, sends a request message to a target electronic device, wherein the target electronic device is an electronic device in the second electronic device; upon receiving a running interface of a second application shared by the target electronic device in response to the request message, displays the running interface of the second application, wherein the second application is an application in the first application. Since the first electronic device can share a specified application in response to the first notification sent by the second electronic device, the flexibility of application sharing is improved. In addition, when the second electronic device is in a standby state, the first electronic device can process the first notification by means of application sharing, thereby effectively avoiding missing important notifications.

[0059] Optionally, in one embodiment, the step 102 includes:

[0060] When the first notification sent by the second electronic device is received, a first prompt message corresponding to the first notification is displayed.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present invention, each time the first electronic device receives a first notification sent by the second electronic device, it will display a prompt message corresponding to the first notification. It should be understood that each first notification corresponds to a first prompt message. When multiple first notifications are received within a period of time, multiple first prompt messages will be displayed.

[0062] For example, the second electronic device is electronic device A and the first electronic device is electronic device B. When electronic device A is in standby mode and receives a notification from application P, electronic device A will send the notification to electronic device B. Figure 2 As shown, at this time, the first prompt message will be displayed on the electronic device B, and the first prompt message can be expressed as: a notification from the application P of the electronic device A is received.

[0063] At this time, when the user needs to process the notification of application P of electronic device A, he can make a first input for the first prompt message (for example, click on the first prompt message). When electronic device B receives the first input, it will send a request message to electronic device A. If electronic device A and electronic device B are not connected at this time, it will trigger the establishment of a connection with electronic device A, and electronic device A will run application P and share the running interface of application P with electronic device B. Figure 3As shown, after electronic device B receives the running interface of application P, it will display the running interface of application P. This allows the user to perform related operations of application P on electronic device B. Optionally, after the user completes the related processing of application P on electronic device B, the user exits the application, and electronic device A ends the application sharing (i.e., ends the screen projection). In this embodiment, since the first prompt message is displayed when the first notification is received, the timeliness of notification processing can be improved to prevent users from missing important messages.

[0064] Optionally, in another embodiment, the above step 102 includes: when a second input to the target control is received, displaying a second prompt message corresponding to a second notification, wherein the second notification includes part or all of the first notification sent by the second electronic device.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second input may be a touch input or a voice input, etc., which is not further limited here. Optionally, in the first electronic device, the relevant information of the received first notification may be stored, and the second notification may be understood as the first notification stored by the first electronic device (i.e., the first notification to be processed). The second input triggers the first electronic device to display a second prompt message corresponding to the second notification.

[0066] Among them, the above-mentioned target control can be associated with all unprocessed first notifications, and can also be associated with all unprocessed first notifications in the first notifications sent by the same second electronic device. The following embodiment takes the association of the target control with all unprocessed first notifications as an example for detailed description.

[0067] Specifically, the association method can be set according to actual needs. For example, in an optional embodiment, the target control is used to store (or carry) the first notification. The following is an example in which the target control is an application drawer. Figure 4 As shown, after electronic device B receives the first notification sent by electronic device A, it can also create an application drawer in a preset path (such as the desktop) to store the relevant information of the first notification. In the embodiment of the present invention, since the first notification is stored through the target control, the first notification can be processed later, so there is no need to interrupt the current operation of user B (for example, the first electronic device is in a call state or a game state and cannot process the notification in time). Therefore, the embodiment of the present invention improves the scope of application sharing based on notifications, thereby improving the practicality of application sharing.

[0068] Optionally, the user can implement the second input through voice or touch operation to trigger the electronic device to display the second prompt message corresponding to the second notification associated with the target control. For example, in an optional embodiment, the second input may include two inputs. Specifically, the second prompt message corresponding to the second notification is the preview information corresponding to the second notification. When the second input for the target control is received, the second prompt message corresponding to the second notification is displayed, including:

[0069] When a fourth input to the target control is received, identification information corresponding to the second notification is displayed, where the identification information includes an application identification and a device identification;

[0070] When a fifth input for a target identifier is received, a notification preview list is displayed, where the target identifier is the application identifier of the second application or the device identifier of the target electronic device, and the preview list includes preview information corresponding to the second notification received by the second application of the target electronic device.

[0071] The application identifier may be an application icon, and the device identifier may be the device name of the second electronic device (which may be a name defined by electronic device B for electronic device A, or a default name of electronic device A). Furthermore, the number of notifications sent by the application corresponding to the application icon may be displayed by a corner mark on the application icon. Figure 4 As shown, the number of notifications sent by application P from electronic device A is 3, the number of notifications sent by application L from electronic device B is 2, the number of notifications sent by application I from electronic device C is 4, and the number of notifications sent by application J from electronic device D is 5.

[0072] The user can view the second prompt message corresponding to the notification of each application through the fifth input, and the fifth input can be a touch input or a voice input, such as Figure 5 As shown, when the user clicks the application icon of the application P, the following may be displayed: Figure 6The interface shown is a notification preview list corresponding to all notifications sent by application P from electronic device A. The user can click on the preview information corresponding to any of the notifications to trigger electronic device B to send a request message to electronic device A. It should be understood that for different notifications, the corresponding operating interfaces may be the same or different, and no further limitation is made here. For example, in an optional embodiment, the above-mentioned request message may carry an identifier of the target preview information associated with the fifth input, and the identifier may represent the target notification corresponding to the target preview information. Electronic device A may determine the target notification that the user prioritizes based on the identifier carried by the request message, and control application P to run to the operating interface for processing the target notification. This can simplify the user's operations on electronic device B.

[0073] Further, when establishing the association relationship between the target control and the first notification, the first prompt message may be displayed or not, which can be set according to actual needs. For example, in an optional embodiment, when receiving the second input for the target control, before displaying the second prompt message corresponding to the second notification, the method further includes:

[0074] When a first notification is received and the second notification associated with the target control includes a third notification, the first prompt message is not displayed, and the first notification is directly associated with the target control. The third notification and the first notification are sent by the same second electronic device, and the third notification and the first notification are notifications of the same application.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present invention, when a notification from application 1 of second electronic device 1 is received for the first time (at this time, the target control does not exist on the first electronic device or the second notification associated with the target control does not include the notification from application 1 of second electronic device 1), a first prompt message corresponding to the notification can be displayed, and an association relationship between the notification and the target control will be established if a preset condition is met. If the target control does not exist at the preset position, the target control will be created first, and then an association relationship between the target control and the notification will be established; if the target control exists, an association relationship between the target control and the notification will be directly established. The preset condition may include any of the following:

[0076] Condition 1: No operation is received for the first prompt message within a preset time period;

[0077] Condition 2: A third input for the first prompt message is received, and the third input can be understood as canceling the display operation of the first prompt message.

[0078] The third input may be a sliding input, such as sliding the first prompt message toward the boundary of the display area of ​​the electronic device, which may also be understood as an input for hiding the first prompt message. In an optional embodiment, an operation control may be provided on the display interface of the first prompt message to cancel or hide the display of the first prompt message, and the user may click the operation control to trigger the storage of the first notification to the target control.

[0079] Furthermore, when a notification from application 1 of the second electronic device 1 is received again (at this time, the first electronic device has a target control, and the user drawer contains a notification from application 1 of the second electronic device 1), the first prompt message corresponding to the notification may not be displayed. This can reduce user operations and improve the intelligence of electronic devices.

[0080] With respect to the above condition 2, it can be understood that, in the case of receiving the first notification sent by the second electronic device, after displaying the first prompt message corresponding to the first notification, the method further includes:

[0081] When a third input is received for the first prompt message, an association relationship between the first notification and the target control is established.

[0082] It should be noted that the various optional implementation modes introduced in the embodiments of the present invention may be implemented in combination with each other or may be implemented separately, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to this.

[0083] Further, see Figure 7 The embodiment of the present invention further provides an application sharing method, which is applied to a second electronic device for application sharing, comprising:

[0084] Step 701, when the second electronic device is in a standby state and receives a first notification through a first application, the first notification is sent to the first electronic device, and the first electronic device is in an operating state;

[0085] Step 702: displaying the running interface of the first application on a virtual screen upon receiving a request message sent by the first electronic device, wherein the request message is generated by the first electronic device upon receiving a first input corresponding to a prompt message of the first notification;

[0086] Step 703: Share the running interface of the first application displayed on the virtual screen with the first electronic device.

By running or executing software programs and / or modules stored in the memory 1009 and calling data stored in the memory 1009, it performs various functions of the electronic device and processes data, thereby monitoring the electronic device as a whole. The processor 1010 may include one or more processing units; preferably, the processor 1010 may integrate an application processor and a modem processor, wherein the application processor mainly processes the operating system, user interface, and application programs, etc., and the modem processor mainly processes wireless communications. It is understandable that the above-mentioned modem processor may not be integrated into the processor 1010.

[0138] The electronic device 1000 may also include a power supply 1011 (such as a battery) for supplying power to each component. Preferably, the power supply 1011 may be logically connected to the processor 1010 via a power management system, thereby managing functions such as charging, discharging, and power consumption through the power management system.
