[0053] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts based on the embodiments of the present invention belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0054] To improve the running speed of an application and enhance the user experience, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method, apparatus, device, and medium for an application to access a dual-WIFI network.

[0055] Embodiment 1:

[0056] Figure 1 The following is a schematic diagram of the process for an application to access a dual-WIFI network provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The process includes the following steps:

[0057] S101: Receive an instruction to start a target application.

[0058] The method for an application to access a dual-WIFI network provided by an embodiment of the present invention is based on a terminal, where the terminal can be a mobile terminal, a PC, or other devices that support network access.

[0059] In an embodiment of the present invention, when there is a need to use a certain application, an instruction to start the application can be sent to the terminal. To facilitate the distinction between applications that require WIFI network usage and those that do not, in an embodiment of the present invention, an application that requires WIFI network usage is referred to as a target application. In an embodiment of the present invention, the way to send an instruction to the terminal can be to input a trigger instruction on the display interface. For example, by triggering the icon of the target application displayed on the display interface.

[0060] S102: According to each preset group, identify the number of the first applications that have accessed the first WIFI network and the number of the second applications that have accessed the second WIFI network in the target group where the target application is located, where the difference in the network traffic consumed by the applications in each group is within a preset difference threshold range.

[0061] In an embodiment of the present invention, the network traffic consumed by each target application during operation is different. Some target applications consume a relatively large amount of network traffic during operation, such as video applications, game applications, etc., while some target applications consume a relatively small amount of network traffic during operation, such as calendar, clock applications, etc.

[0062] To make full use of the two WIFI networks and balance the network traffic consumed by the target applications accessing the two WIFI networks, the target applications can be accessed to different WIFI networks according to the network traffic consumption situation of each target application. To improve the efficiency of accessing the target applications to the WIFI network, in an embodiment of the present invention, the terminal pre-groups the installed applications according to the traffic consumption situation of each installed application within a set time length, and for each group, the identification information of the applications divided into the group can be saved.

[0063] To further ensure the full utilization of network resources and avoid lags during the use of applications, when grouping applications, the difference in network traffic consumed by the applications in each group within a preset time length is within a preset difference threshold range. The preset difference threshold range can be set according to the actual usage of the terminal.

[0064] After receiving an instruction to start a target application, the terminal determines the target group where the target application is located according to the preset grouping. And it identifies the number of the first applications that have accessed the first WIFI network and the number of the second applications that have accessed the second WIFI network in the target group.

[0065] During the actual use of the terminal, some of the installed applications on the terminal may not be used, that is, these applications do not consume network traffic currently. Therefore, it is necessary to count the number of applications with network consumption in the target group that have accessed each WIFI network, that is, the number of the first applications that have accessed the first WIFI network and the number of the second applications that have accessed the second WIFI network in the target group.

[0066] S103: Connect the target application to the WIFI network corresponding to the smaller value of the number of the first applications and the number of the second applications.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present invention, after identifying the number of the first applications that have accessed the first WIFI network and the number of the second applications that have accessed the second WIFI network in the target group, since the target group is obtained by the terminal pre-grouping the installed applications according to the network traffic consumption of each application, the difference in network traffic consumed by the applications in the target group does not exceed the preset difference threshold range. Therefore, to balance the load of each WIFI network, the terminal connects the target application to the WIFI network corresponding to the smaller value of the number of the first applications and the number of the second applications.

[0068] For example, there are three applications in the target group that have accessed the first WIFI network and four applications that have accessed the second WIFI network. That is, the number of the first applications that have accessed the first WIFI network in the target group is three, and the number of the second applications that have accessed the second WIFI network is four. At this time, the number of the first applications is less than the number of the second applications, so the target application is connected to the first WIFI network.

[0069] If the number of the first applications is the same as the number of the second applications, the target application can be randomly connected to any WIFI network; or, when the number of the first applications is the same as the number of the second applications, the terminal can randomly generate a target random number that is an integer, and according to the correspondence between the parity of the preset target random number and the two WIFI networks, connect the target application to the corresponding WIFI network.

[0070] For example, three applications in the target group have been connected to the first WIFI network, and three applications have been connected to the second WIFI network, that is, the number of the first applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network in the target group is three, and the number of the second applications that have been connected to the second WIFI network is three. At this time, the number of the first applications is equal to the number of the second applications. At this time, the target random number generated by the terminal is 8. It is preset that if the target random number is odd, the target application will be connected to the first WIFI network, and if the target random number is even, the target application will be connected to the second WIFI network. At this time, the target random number 8 is even, so the target application will be connected to the second WIFI network.

[0071] Since in the embodiment of the present invention, the applications with the difference in the consumed network traffic within the preset difference threshold range are grouped into one group. When receiving an instruction to start a target application, according to the number of applications that have been connected to each WIFI network in the group where the target application is located, the target application is connected to the WIFI network with a smaller number of applications, so that each WIFI network can be effectively utilized, avoiding the situation that applications are concentrated on a certain WIFI network and causing the service provided by it to be stuck, and improving the user experience.

[0072] Embodiment 2:

[0073] In order to group the applications of the terminal, on the basis of the above embodiment, in the embodiment of the present invention, before receiving the instruction to start a target application, the method further includes:

[0074] According to the total network traffic consumed by each application in the terminal collected within a set time length, identify each group of first applications with the difference in the total network traffic within the preset difference threshold range;

[0075] Save the identification information of each first application into the corresponding group.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve the efficiency of connecting a target application to a WIFI network, the terminal will count the total network traffic consumed by each installed application within a set time length, and arrange the consumed total network traffic in a certain order, group the applications according to the sorting, and the difference in the total network traffic consumed by the first applications in each group is within the preset difference threshold range.

[0077] Among them, the set time length can be set by the user himself or pre-configured in the terminal before leaving the factory. The set time length can be one day, several days, one week, one month, etc., and can be specifically set according to requirements.

[0078] And when counting the total network traffic consumed by the applications in the terminal within the set time length, it can be carried out when the terminal is relatively idle. For example, generally the terminal is less used in the early morning, so the network traffic consumed by each application in the terminal collected within the set time length can be counted in the early morning, so as to determine the total network traffic consumed by each application.

[0079] In the embodiment of the present invention, when arranging the consumed total network traffic in a certain order, it can be arranged in descending order of the consumed total network traffic. Grouping is carried out according to the sorting result and the difference between the total network traffic consumed by each application.

[0080] Specifically, the highest value of the consumed total network traffic can be used as the first reference total network traffic, and the difference between the first reference total network traffic and other total network traffic is calculated in turn according to the sorting result, and it is judged whether the difference is within the preset difference threshold range. The applications corresponding to the total network traffic with all differences within the preset difference threshold range are grouped into one group, and then the remaining total network traffic is continued to be grouped according to the above method, that is, the highest value of the remaining total network traffic is used as the second reference total network traffic, and the total network traffic with the difference from the second reference total network traffic within the preset difference threshold range is identified, and the applications corresponding to the total network traffic with all differences within the preset difference threshold range are grouped into one group. After that, the above grouping is continued for the remaining total network traffic. Since the grouping process is the same as the above method, it will not be elaborated here.

[0081] Figure 2 It is a schematic flow chart of grouping applications provided by the embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2 shown, and the process includes:

[0082] S201: Record the network traffic consumed by each application according to the network usage situation of each application.

[0083] Specifically, in order to avoid resource waste caused by too frequent recording, the recording time interval can be set; in order to enable the terminal to record the network traffic consumption of each application in time, the network traffic consumed by each application is counted and recorded every day.

[0084] S202: Count the total network traffic consumed by each application within the set time length, and sort the total network traffic consumed by each application.

[0085] S203: Identify each group of first applications whose difference in total network traffic is within a preset difference threshold range.

[0086] In addition, after recording the total network traffic consumed by each target application installed within a set time length, the daily average network traffic consumption of each target application can be calculated, and the target applications can be grouped according to the daily average network traffic consumption and the preset difference threshold. Among them, the set time length can be set by the user himself, or can be pre-configured in the terminal before leaving the factory. The set time length can be one day, several days, one week, one month, etc., and can be specifically set according to requirements; the preset difference threshold can also be set by the user himself, or can be pre-configured in the terminal before leaving the factory. Among them, the user's self-setting is more flexible. Specifically, when there are many applications with a large total network traffic consumption, the preset difference threshold can be set smaller; when there are few applications with a large total network traffic consumption, the preset difference threshold can be set larger. Similarly, when the user uses the terminal not very frequently, the set time length can be set longer; when the user uses the terminal very frequently, the set time length can be set shorter.

[0087] After the grouping is completed, save the identification information of each first application to the corresponding group. In this way, after receiving an instruction to start a target application, it is possible to find out which group the identification information of the target application is in, so as to confirm the target group of the target application.

[0088] In order to distinguish from the applications mentioned later, in the embodiments of the present invention, the grouped applications are called first applications. In addition, in the embodiments of the present invention, all applications in the terminal can be grouped. However, for some applications, the network traffic they consume is very small. Such applications will not bring load pressure to the WIFI network after accessing the WIFI network. On the contrary, grouping them will waste the resources of the terminal. Therefore, these applications can be not grouped.

[0089] In order to improve the access efficiency of applications, on the basis of the above embodiments, in the embodiments of the present invention, before identifying each group of applications whose difference in total network traffic is within a preset difference threshold range according to the total network traffic consumed by each application in the terminal collected within a set time length, the method further includes:

[0090] Identify second applications whose total network traffic is less than a set threshold;

[0091] Save the identification information of each second application in a preset traffic-saving group.

[0092] During use, some applications are not used very frequently, or some applications consume very little network traffic and do not impose a load on the WIFI network. In the embodiments of the present invention, when grouping applications, second applications with a total network traffic less than a set threshold can be identified. And the identification information of each identified second application is saved in a preset traffic-saving group. The difference in the total network traffic of the second applications in the traffic-saving group is not affected by the preset difference threshold range, that is, the difference in the total network traffic of the second applications in the traffic-saving group can be within the preset difference threshold range or can exceed the preset difference threshold range.

[0093] To connect a target application to a WIFI network, based on the above embodiments, in the embodiments of the present invention, after receiving an instruction to start the target application, before identifying the number of first applications that have entered the first WIFI network and the number of second applications that have entered the second WIFI network in the target group where the target application is located according to each preset group, the method further includes:

[0094] Determine whether the target group where the target application is located is a traffic-saving group;

[0095] If not, then perform the subsequent steps of identifying the number of first applications that have entered the first WIFI network and the number of second applications that have entered the second WIFI network in the target group where the target application is located according to each preset group.

[0096] To connect the target application to a WIFI network, based on the above embodiments, in the embodiments of the present invention, if the target group where the target application is located is the traffic-saving group, the method further includes:

[0097] Generate a target random number, where the target random number is an integer;

[0098] According to the parity of the target random number and the pre-set correspondence between the WIFI network and the parity of the target random number, determine the target WIFI network to which the target application is connected.

[0099] In the embodiments of the present invention, because the second applications in the traffic-saving group consume less network traffic, when the second applications in the traffic-saving group are connected to the WIFI network, they will not impose an excessive load on the connected WIFI network. Therefore, the second applications in the traffic-saving group can be connected to any WIFI network. To improve the efficiency of connecting the target application to the WIFI network, after receiving an instruction to start the target application, it can be first determined whether the target application is located in the traffic-saving group. If the target application is not located in the traffic-saving group, then continue with the subsequent operations.

[0100] If the target application is within the traffic-saving group, the terminal randomly generates a target random number corresponding to the target application. The terminal stores the corresponding relationship between the pre-set WIFI networks and the parity of the target random numbers. According to the target random number and the corresponding relationship, the target WIFI network to which the target application is to be connected is determined.

[0101] For example, it can be pre-set that the first WIFI network corresponds to a target random number that is odd, and the second WIFI network corresponds to a target random number that is even. When the target application is an application in the traffic-saving group, the terminal generates a target random number. If the target random number is odd, the target application is connected to the first WIFI network. If the target random number is even, the target application is connected to the second WIFI network.

[0102] Embodiment 3:

[0103] In order to connect the target application to the WIFI network, based on the above embodiments, in an embodiment of the present invention, after receiving an instruction to start the target application, before identifying the number of the first applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network and the number of the second applications that have been connected to the second WIFI network in the target group where the target application is located according to each pre-set group, the method further includes:

[0104] Determine whether the current network state of the terminal is a dual-WIFI network;

[0105] If so, perform the subsequent steps of identifying the number of the first applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network and the number of the second applications that have been connected to the second WIFI network in the target group where the target application is located according to each pre-set group.

[0106] In an embodiment of the present invention, the terminal supports a dual-WIFI network, but whether the dual-WIFI network of the terminal is turned on simultaneously can be selected, that is, the terminal can currently be a dual-WIFI network or a single-WIFI network.

[0107] After receiving an instruction to start the target application, it can be determined whether the current network state of the terminal is a dual-WIFI network, that is, to determine whether the terminal is currently connected to two WIFI networks. When the current network state of the terminal is a dual-WIFI network, the subsequent steps of identifying the number of the first applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network and the number of the second applications that have been connected to the second WIFI network in the target group where the target application is located according to each pre-set group are performed.

[0108] In order to accurately connect the target application, based on the above embodiments, in an embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes:

[0109] If the current network status of the terminal is not a dual-WiFi network, connect the target application to the current first Wi-Fi network of the terminal.

[0110] When the current network status is not a dual-WiFi network, it means that the terminal is only connected to one Wi-Fi network at this time, that is, the terminal is only working through the first Wi-Fi network at this time. At this time, connect the target application to the current first Wi-Fi network of the terminal, where the first Wi-Fi network is the Wi-Fi network currently connected by the terminal.

[0111] Figure 3 The following is a schematic flowchart of the application access in a dual-WiFi network provided by an embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 3 shown, the process includes:

[0112] S301: Receive an instruction to start a target application.

[0113] S302: Determine whether the current network status of the terminal is a dual-WiFi network. If so, execute S303; if not, execute S308.

[0114] S303: Determine whether the target group where the target application is located is a traffic-saving group. If not, execute S304; if so, execute S307.

[0115] S304: Identify the number of the first applications that have been connected to the first Wi-Fi network and the number of the second applications that have been connected to the second Wi-Fi network in the target group where the target application is located according to each preset group.

[0116] S305: Connect the target application to the Wi-Fi network corresponding to the smaller value of the number of the first applications and the number of the second applications.

[0117] S306: Update the number of applications connected to each Wi-Fi network.

[0118] In the embodiment of the present invention, after connecting the target application to the Wi-Fi network corresponding to the smaller value of the number of the first applications and the number of the second applications, it is necessary to update the number of applications corresponding to the connected Wi-Fi network to ensure the accuracy of the saved number of the first applications and the number of the second applications.

[0119] S307: Generate a target random number, and determine the target Wi-Fi network to which the target application is connected according to the parity of the target random number and the corresponding relationship between the pre-set Wi-Fi network and the parity of the target random number.

[0120] S308: If the current network status of the terminal is not a dual-WiFi network, connect the target application to the current first Wi-Fi network.

[0121] In order to accurately connect an application to a newly started WIFI network, based on the above embodiments, in an embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes:

[0122] If a command to start a second WIFI network is received, determine third applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network in each group;

[0123] Obtain some fourth applications in the third applications, and connect the fourth applications to the second WIFI network that has been started, where the fourth applications are non-foreground applications.

[0124] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the current network state of the terminal device is not a dual-WIFI network, if you want to improve the running speed or download speed of the terminal, you can trigger a command to start a second WIFI network. After the terminal receives the command to start the second WIFI network, it starts the second WIFI network. At this time, no application is connected to the second WIFI network. In order to reduce the load pressure on the first WIFI network, some applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network can be connected to the second WIFI network.

[0125] In order to achieve load balancing between the first WIFI network and the second WIFI network, after starting the second WIFI network, the terminal determines third applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network in each group. For each group, some applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network in the group are connected to the second WIFI network. Some fourth applications in the third applications may not be all the applications in the third applications. For example, they can be several with a fixed number in the third applications. However, in order to achieve load balancing, when considering connecting some fourth applications in the third applications to the second WIFI network, the number of third applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network also needs to be considered, and the partial quantity is determined based on this number, and the fourth applications with this partial quantity are connected to the second WIFI network. The above third applications and fourth applications are both described for applications in the same group.

[0126] In order to further achieve load balancing, when connecting some applications that have been connected to the first WIFI network to the second WIFI network, the specific number of applications connected to the second WIFI network is determined according to the number of the third applications. Preferably, half of the number of the fourth applications in the third applications can be connected to the second WIFI network.

[0127] Because when connecting the fourth application to the second WIFI network, the fourth application needs to switch from the first WIFI network to the second WIFI network, and there may be a lag situation. In order not to affect the user experience, the fourth application is a non-foreground application.

[0128] Figure 4 A schematic flowchart of dual WIFI network switching provided by an embodiment of the present invention is as follows Figure 4 shown, and the process includes:

[0129] S401: Receive an instruction to start the second WIFI network.

[0130] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the current network state of the terminal device is not a dual WIFI network, if it is desired to improve the running speed or download speed of the terminal, an instruction to start the second WIFI network can be triggered, and the terminal receives this instruction.

[0131] S402: Determine the third applications that have accessed the first WIFI network in each group.

[0132] S403: For each group, determine some fourth applications in the third application.

[0133] When a part of the fourth applications that have accessed the first WIFI network are to be accessed to the second WIFI network, the specific number of fourth applications accessed to the second WIFI network is determined according to the number of the third applications. Preferably, half of the number of the third applications of the fourth applications can be accessed to the second WIFI network.

[0134] S404: According to the identification information of each fourth application, determine whether the fourth application is a foreground application. If so, execute S406; if not, execute S405.

[0135] In an embodiment of the present invention, in order to avoid affecting the user experience, the WIFI network is not switched for the foreground application that is currently working. Therefore, when switching the WIFI network, it is necessary to determine whether the fourth application to be switched is a foreground application.

[0136] S405: Access the fourth application to the second WIFI network.

[0137] S406: Keep the access of the fourth application unchanged in the first WIFI network.
