[0033] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0034] The terms "first", "second", and the like in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of a kind and do not limit the number of objects, for example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / ", generally indicates that the front and rear associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0035] The application management method, apparatus and electronic device provided in the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an application management method provided in an embodiment of the present application, which includes the following steps:

[0037] Step S101, receiving a first input of a user in a case of displaying a first interface of a first application;

[0038] Step S102, in response to the first input, generating a first identifier, the first identifier being used to indicate the first interface;

[0039] Step S103, in the case that the first identifier is displayed in the second interface of the application management device, receiving a second input of the first identifier by the user;

[0040] Step S104, in response to the second input, displaying the first interface.

[0041] The application management device can be various electronic devices installed with application programs, for example, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc. The first input can be a touch input operation of a specific region in the first interface by the user, for example, the first input can be a touch input operation of a non-click region in the first interface by the user, wherein the non-click region can be a region without operation controls in the first interface, and the touch input operation can be a long press input, a double-click input, etc. In addition, the first input can also be an input of a specific control displayed in the first interface by the user, for example, the first interface can display an add control, and the user can generate a first identifier corresponding to the first interface by clicking the add control.

[0042] The first identifier is used to indicate the first interface, which can mean that there is an association between the first identifier and the first interface, for example, the first identifier can be a shortcut entry identifier of the first interface, that is, the user can operate the first identifier to quickly switch the display interface of the application management device to the first interface.

[0043] The first interface can be an interface displayed after the user triggers a certain function module in the first application, for example, the first interface can be a payment code interface displayed after the user clicks a payment function module in the first application; or the first interface can be a personal setting interface displayed after the user clicks a personal setting function module in the first application.

[0044] The second interface can be various types of display interfaces in the application management apparatus. For example, the second interface can also be an interface displayed after the user triggers a certain function module in the first application. In this case, the method provided in the embodiments of the present application can realize quick switching between different interfaces in the same application. In addition, the second interface can also be an interface in an application other than the first application. In this case, the method provided in the embodiments of the present application can realize quick switching between interfaces of different applications. In some embodiments of the present application, the second interface can also be a lock screen interface of the application management apparatus. In this case, the method provided in the embodiments of the present application can realize the process of quickly switching from the lock screen interface to a certain interface in a specific application.

[0045] The first identifier can be displayed based on the display operation of the user in the second interface, or the first identifier can be displayed synchronously when the application management apparatus displays the second interface. It can be understood that the user can perform the first input in multiple interfaces of the first application, and multiple identifiers corresponding to multiple different interfaces are generated respectively, and the multiple identifiers include the first identifier. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, a preset identifier group can be displayed in the second interface, and the preset identifier group includes the multiple identifiers. The display position of the preset identifier group can be preset, and no limitation is made in this regard. In addition, the second input can be a click input of the user on the first identifier.

[0046] It can be understood that the user can generate identifiers corresponding to multiple frequently used interfaces in the preset identifier group in the process of using the application. In this way, when the application management apparatus is in the second interface, the display interface of the application management apparatus can be switched to the interface corresponding to the clicked identifier in the preset identifier group by clicking the identifier in the preset identifier group. For example, please refer to Figure 5 When the second interface is the home page of the first application, the preset identifier group is displayed in the top area of the second interface, and the preset identifier group includes an "outgoing" identifier. When the user clicks the "outgoing" identifier, the display interface of the application management apparatus is switched to the outgoing interface as shown in Figure 6 .

[0047] It should be noted that when the display content of the first interface is real-time updated content, in the case that the second input to the first identifier is received, displaying the first interface can mean updating the display of the first interface in the case that the second input to the first identifier is received. For example, when the first interface is a payment code interface, since the payment code is updated each time the payment code interface is opened, the payment code is updated relative to the last time, and therefore, in the case that the second input to the first identifier is received, the payment code interface can be updated and displayed to facilitate the user to normally complete the payment process through the payment code interface.

[0048] In this embodiment, the user can generate an identifier corresponding to a specific application interface based on the first input during use of the application, and can achieve quick switching of interfaces based on the generated identifier when the application management device displays other interfaces, thereby simplifying the operation steps of the user when using the application program.

[0049] Optionally, before the first input of the user is received, the method further includes:

[0050] Receiving a third input of the user to the first interface;

[0051] In response to the third input, displaying an addition control;

[0052] The first input of the user is received in the case that the first interface of the first application is displayed, including:

[0053] The first input of the user to the addition control is received in the case that the first interface of the first application is displayed.

[0054] The third input can be a touch input of the user in a specific region of the first interface, for example, can be a touch input of the user in a non-clicking region of the first interface, and the touch input can be a long press input, a double-click input, or other commonly used touch inputs. Figure 2 As shown, it can be a touch input of a non-clicking region of the travel interface.

[0055] Specifically, in order to avoid user misoperation, the addition control can be displayed when the third input acting on the first interface is received, and the first identifier can be generated when the first input of the user to the addition control is received, and the generated first identifier can be added to the preset identifier group. It can be understood that after the addition control is displayed, if the user does not perform the first input to the addition control, but clicks other positions in the first interface, the addition control is hidden.

[0056] The addition control can be various forms of preset identifiers, and the display position of the addition control can be pre-set, for example, please refer toFigure 3 In an embodiment of the present application, the adding control 201 is a "⊕" control displayed at the upper left corner of the display screen of the application management apparatus. The first input can be any touch input of the user acting on the adding control 201, for example, can be a click input of the user acting on the adding control 201.

[0057] In a specific implementation, the user can set a corresponding preset identifier group for different applications in the application management apparatus, and the identifiers in the preset identifier groups corresponding to different applications can be different, of course, there can also be common identifiers in the preset identifier groups corresponding to different applications.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the second interface can be an interface in the first application. Since the first interface and the second interface are both interfaces in the first application, the first identifier can be determined as an identifier associated with the first application, that is, only the first identifier is added to the preset identifier group corresponding to the first application, and the first identifier is not added to the preset identifier groups corresponding to other applications except the first application.

[0059] The second interface can be any interface in the first application except the first interface, so that the quick switching between different interfaces in the same application can be realized. Of course, the second interface can also be the same interface as the first interface, so that the user can switch the display interface of the application management apparatus from the first interface to other interfaces except the first interface based on other identifiers in the preset identifier group.

[0060] In this embodiment, by responding to the third input, the adding control is displayed, and in the case that the first input acting on the adding control is received, the first identifier is added to the preset identifier group, so that the problem of adding the first identifier to the preset identifier group due to the user's misoperation can be avoided.

[0061] Optionally, the first input includes a first sub-input and a second sub-input, and the receiving the first input of the user in the case that the first interface of the first application is displayed includes:

[0062] receiving the first sub-input of the user in the case that the first interface of the first application is displayed;

[0063] displaying at least one application icon in response to the first sub-input;

[0064] receiving the second sub-input of the user on a target application icon in the at least one application icon;

[0065] the generating the first identifier in response to the first input includes:

[0066] In response to the second sub-input, a first identifier is generated, the first identifier has an association relationship with the target application icon, and the association relationship is used to indicate that the first identifier is displayed in an application interface corresponding to the target application icon.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present application, when it is needed to quickly switch from an application other than the first application to the first interface of the first application, an association relationship between the first identifier and the application to which the first identifier is associated can be established when the first identifier is added.

[0068] Specifically, when the first interface receives the first sub-input, at least one application icon is displayed, wherein the at least one application icon is an application icon of an application other than the first application. Then, a second sub-input of a target application icon in the at least one application icon is received, that is, a selection input of the target application icon in the at least one application icon is received, so as to establish an association relationship between the first identifier and the target application.

[0069] The target application icon is an application icon of the target application. By displaying the at least one application icon, it is convenient for a user to select an application associated with the first identifier from the at least one application icon. The second sub-input can be a click input of the user, and in a case where the second sub-input is performed on the target application icon in the at least one application icon, the second sub-input is used to establish the association relationship between the first identifier and the target application. Specifically, after the association relationship between the first identifier and the target application is established, the first identifier can be determined as an identifier in a preset identifier group corresponding to the target application.

[0070] It can be understood that the second interface can be any interface in the target application.

[0071] In this embodiment, at least one application icon is displayed in response to the first sub-input, and a first identifier is generated in a case where a second sub-input of a target application icon in the at least one application icon is received. In this way, it is convenient to establish an association relationship between the first identifier and an application other than the first application, so as to quickly switch interfaces between different applications.

[0072] Optionally, after the first input of the user is received, the method further includes:

[0073] displaying a confirmation window, the confirmation window including preset name information, and the confirmation window being used to confirm a name of the first identifier;

[0074] receiving a fourth input of the user on the confirmation window;

[0075] In response to the fourth input, the preset name information in the confirmation window is updated.

[0076] In an embodiment of the present application, the application management apparatus can display the confirmation window in response to the first input. The preset name information can include the interface name of the first interface, for example, see Figure 2 When the first interface is a "travel interface" in the first application, see Figure 4 "Travel" can be displayed in the confirmation window 202.

[0077] The confirmation window 202 can be an input box. When the confirmation window 202 is displayed, the interface name of the first interface can be displayed in the confirmation window 202 by default. However, since there can be the same or similar interfaces between different applications, the user can modify the display content in the confirmation window 202, that is, the user can customize the name of the first identifier, so as to facilitate the user to distinguish the identifiers corresponding to the same or similar interfaces in different applications based on the customized name.

[0078] Specifically, the fourth input of the user can be received based on the confirmation window 202, and the user can modify the name of the first identifier based on the fourth input.

[0079] In addition, see Figure 4 The confirmation window 202 can also include a "confirm" control and a "cancel" control. When the user clicks the "confirm" control, the first identifier is generated and added to the preset identifier group of the corresponding application. See Figure 5 When the user confirms that the name of the first identifier 203 is "travel", the display content in the first identifier 203 in the preset identifier group can include "travel". In this way, it is convenient for the user to determine the interface corresponding to the identifier based on the content in the identifier when performing page switching.

[0080] The confirmation operation can be a click operation of the user on the "confirm" control. When the user clicks the "cancel" control, the generation process of the first identifier is ended.

[0081] Optionally, after receiving the third input of the user on the first interface, the method further includes:

[0082] In response to the third input, a second identifier is displayed, the second identifier being used to indicate a third interface of the first application.

[0083] A fifth input of the user on the second identifier is received.

[0084] In response to the fifth input, the third interface is displayed.

[0085] Specifically, the application management apparatus can display the adding identifier and the second identifier simultaneously in response to the third input after receiving the third input. In this case, the user can generate the first identifier based on the adding identifier, and in addition, the user can also switch the display interface of the application management apparatus from the first interface to the third interface by inputting the fifth input to the second identifier.

[0086] The fifth input can be a click input of the user to the second identifier. The third interface can be another interface of the first application in addition to the first interface.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present application, the application management apparatus can display the adding identifier and a preset identifier group corresponding to the first application in response to the third input, and the preset identifier group includes all identifiers associated with the first application, wherein one identifier corresponds to one interface, and the preset identifier group includes the second identifier.

[0088] It can be understood that the preset identifier group can also include other identifiers having an association relationship with the first application. In the preset identifier group, one identifier corresponds to one interface, that is, different identifiers in the preset identifier group correspond to different interfaces, so that when there are multiple identifiers in the preset identifier group, the user can switch from the first interface to other multiple interfaces based on the preset identifier group.

[0089] In this embodiment, by displaying the second identifier while displaying the adding control, the user can select to generate the first identifier based on the adding control. At the same time, the display interface of the application management apparatus can be quickly switched from the first interface to other interfaces based on the preset identifier group.

[0090] Optionally, after receiving the third input of the user to the first interface, the method further includes:

[0091] In response to the third input, a third identifier is displayed, and the third identifier is used to indicate a fourth interface of a second application.

[0092] A sixth input of the user to the third identifier is received.

[0093] In response to the sixth input, the fourth interface is displayed.

[0094] The fifth input can be a click input of the user to the second identifier. The second application can be any application in the application management apparatus in addition to the first application.

[0095] Specifically, the application management apparatus can display the adding control and the third identifier simultaneously in response to the third input after receiving the third input. In this case, the user can generate the first identifier based on the adding control, and in addition, the user can also switch the display interface of the application management apparatus from the first interface to a fourth interface by performing a sixth input on the third identifier. Thus, the first interface can be quickly switched to the specific application interface of other applications, so as to further simplify the operation steps of the user on the application program.

[0096] In an embodiment of the present application, the application management apparatus can display the adding control and a preset identifier group corresponding to the first application based on the third input, and the preset identifier group includes the second identifier and the third identifier. In this way, the user can not only realize the quick switching between interfaces within an application based on the second identifier in the preset identifier group, but also realize the quick switching between interfaces across applications based on the third identifier.

[0097] It can be understood that, in order to avoid the need to reserve a certain area for displaying the preset identifier group in each application interface, the application management apparatus can hide the preset identifier group by default when displaying the first interface, and only display the preset identifier group when the first interface receives the third input.

[0098] Optionally, the second interface includes a lock screen interface of the application management apparatus, and the method further includes:

[0099] displaying a first application icon in the lock screen interface, the first identifier being located in a preset area corresponding to the first application icon, and the first application icon being an icon of the first application.

[0100] The lock screen interface can be a lock screen interface of the application management apparatus in a display state. For example, please refer to Figure 10 When the application management apparatus is in a lock screen state and the first application icon is an application icon of a communication application, the icon of the "communication" application is displayed, and all identifiers associated with the communication application are displayed around the icon of the "communication" application, wherein the first identifier is included in the all identifiers associated with the communication application. When the user clicks the "health" identifier of the communication application, the display interface of the application management apparatus can be directly switched from the lock screen interface to the "health" interface of the communication application. In this way, the application management apparatus can be quickly switched from the lock screen interface to the specific interface of the specific application without unlocking, which is beneficial to further simplify the operation of the user.

[0101] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0102] display a third application icon in the lock screen interface;

[0103] receive a seventh input of a user to the lock screen interface;

[0104] in response to the seventh input, display a fourth identification associated with the third application icon, the fourth identification being used to indicate a fifth interface.

[0105] The third application icon can be an application icon of a third application, and the third application can be an application icon of any application program in the electronic device. When the third application icon is displayed, all identifications associated with the third application can be displayed around the third application icon. It can be understood that the fourth identification can be any identification associated with the third application. The fifth interface can be any interface of an application program corresponding to the third application icon, or the fifth interface can also be any interface in other application programs.

[0106] Specifically, referring to Figure 10 The first application icon, the third application icon, and other application icons can be simultaneously displayed in the lock screen interface. A user can customize all applications displayed in the lock screen interface in a setting interface of the application management apparatus. For example, referring to Figure 8 The user can check a selection box corresponding to an application, so as to determine that an icon of the corresponding application is displayed in the lock screen interface. In addition, referring to Figure 10 In an embodiment of the present application, the user can set the first application corresponding to the first application icon 206 as a frequently used application in the setting interface. Thus, the application management apparatus displays the first application icon 206 in a magnified manner by default each time the lock screen interface is entered, and simultaneously displays the third application icon 207 and hides all identifications associated with the third application icon 207.

[0107] The seventh input can be a sliding input of a user to the lock screen interface, or can be a clicking input of the user to the third application icon 207. The application management apparatus can display a magnified image of the third application icon 207 and display all identifications associated with the third application in response to the seventh input. It can be understood that the fourth identification is included in the identifications associated with the third application. Meanwhile, the first application icon 206 can be displayed in a reduced manner, and identifications associated with the first application can be hidden in response to the seventh input.

[0108] Specifically, referring to Figure 10- Figure 11When the first application icon 206 is a "communication" application, the lock screen interface displays application icons of third applications, such as a "photo" application and a "map" application, in addition to the application icon of the "communication" application that is displayed in a magnified manner. The seventh input can be a sliding input in which the user slides left or right, so that the user can select any one of the application icons displayed in a magnified manner on the lock screen interface by the sliding input. When an application icon is displayed in a magnified manner, all the identifiers associated with the application icon that is displayed in a magnified manner are also displayed, and when the application icon that is displayed in a magnified manner is switched to be displayed in a reduced manner, the identifiers corresponding to the application icon are also hidden. In this way, the user can select an application that needs to be operated based on a switching operation, and can quickly enter a specific application interface of the selected application by clicking the identifier of the application.

[0109] Optionally, after the method receives the second input of the user on the first identifier, the method further includes:

[0110] When the first identifier meets a preset condition, displaying an unlock interface.

[0111] The preset condition can be that the interface indicated by the first identifier is a preset interface, and the preset interface can be a sensitive interface such as a payment interface or a transfer interface.

[0112] Specifically, because the application management device is still in an unlocked state during the process of switching from the lock screen interface to the specific interface of the specific application, the user's authority needs to be limited to avoid illegal operations by an illegal user. Specifically, when the user selects to enter some simple display interfaces, the user can be switched directly from the lock screen interface to the corresponding interface. Correspondingly, when the user selects to enter a sensitive interface such as a payment interface or a transfer interface, the method can display an unlock interface in response to a second input of the user. At this time, the user needs to perform identity verification, such as fingerprint unlocking, face unlocking, password unlocking, and the like. When the unlock information is received on the unlock interface and the unlocking is successful, the first interface is displayed. In this way, it is beneficial to simplify the operation of the user on the application, and it is also beneficial to ensure the security of important information such as the property and privacy of the user.

[0113] It can be understood that after the application management device is directly switched from the lock screen interface to the first interface, the method can further include: displaying the unlock interface when a tenth input of the user is received, where the tenth input can be that the user switches the display interface of the application management device from the first interface to another interface other than the first interface. Specifically, because the application management device is still in an unlocked state after entering the first interface, when the user wants to further enter another interface, the user needs to perform identity verification first to further ensure the security of important information such as the property and privacy of the user.

[0114] Optionally, in the case that the application management apparatus is in the screen-off state, the method further comprises:

[0115] displaying a fifth identifier in the screen-off interface of the application management apparatus;

[0116] receiving an eighth input of the fifth identifier by the user;

[0117] in response to the eighth input, displaying a lock screen interface, wherein the first identifier is included in the lock screen interface.

[0118] Specifically, referring to Figure 9 , the fifth identifier 205 can be a triangular identifier displayed at the edge of the screen-off interface, and the eighth input can be various touch inputs of the fifth identifier 205 by the user, for example, a click input or a rightward sliding input. When the eighth input of the fifth identifier 205 is received, the application management apparatus switches to the lock screen interface, as shown in Figure 10 , at this time, the user can switch to the first interface by clicking the first identifier 203 in the lock screen interface, so as to facilitate the application management apparatus to quickly switch from the screen-off state to a specific application interface.

[0119] It can be understood that when the application management apparatus switches from the screen-off interface to the lock screen interface, the fifth identifier 205 is still in the display state, at this time, the user can click or slide the fifth identifier 205 to make the application management apparatus switch from the lock screen interface to the screen-off interface.

[0120] It can be understood that when the application management apparatus switches from the screen-off interface to the lock screen interface, the fifth identifier 205 is still in the display state, at this time, the user can click or slide the fifth identifier 205 to make the application management apparatus switch from the lock screen interface to the screen-off interface. Figure 9 , in an embodiment of the present application, when the application management apparatus is in the screen-off state, the superscript of the fifth identifier 205 can point to the right side to prompt the user to slide to the right to enter the lock screen interface. Correspondingly, referring to Figure 10 , when the application management apparatus is in the lock screen interface, the superscript of the fifth identifier 205 can point to the left side to prompt the user to slide to the left to enter the screen-off interface.

[0121] The difference between the above screen-off interface and the existing screen-off interface of the application management apparatus is that in the embodiment of the present application, when the application management apparatus is in the screen-off state, the region where the fifth identifier 205 is located is in the display state.

[0122] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0123] in the case that the first identifier is displayed in the second interface of the application management apparatus, receiving a ninth input of the first identifier by the user;
