[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0024] The terms "first", "second", etc. 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 those 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 a "or" relationship.

[0025] The application updating method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings, specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0026] Figure 1 A flowchart of an application updating method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown, which can be executed by a terminal device. In other words, the method can be executed by software or hardware installed in the terminal device. As shown in the figure, Figure 1 The method can include the following steps.

[0027] S101: Display a first icon and a first update control.

[0028] The first icon is used to indicate the first application.

[0029] Specifically, the first icon can display the application icon of the first application on the desktop of the terminal device, and at least one application icon of the first application can be displayed on the desktop of the terminal device. The first application can be a third-party application program or a system-level application program provided by the terminal device.

[0030] S103: Receive a first input of a user to the first update control.

[0031] Specifically, the first input can be dragging the first icon to the target area associated with the first update control, or long pressing the first icon until the first icon moves to the target area associated with the first update control, etc. The form of the first update control can be a floating ball, a pop-up window, etc.

[0032] For example, the user can operate any one of the plurality of application icons individually, such as Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the application icon APP1, the application icon APP2, the application icon APP3, the application icon APP4 and the application icon APP5 and the first update control 201 are displayed on the desktop. The user long-presses the application icon APP5, so that it is in a movable state, and then the user drags the application icon APP5 so that it can be moved to the target area associated with the first update control, where the target area can be the location of the first update control 201 or a preset area around the location of the first update control 201.

[0033] For example, the user can perform batch operation on the plurality of application icons. The user can long-press any one of the application icons APP1 to APP5 or long-press the first update control 201 to enter the batch selection mode, such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, after entering the batch selection mode, the target control 202 is displayed on the desktop, and a check box 203 is displayed in the upper right corner of each application icon. The user can check at least one of APP1 to APP5 through the check box 203, and then click the target control 202 (confirmation control) in the first interface to complete the batch selection of the application icons. Then the user can long-press any one of the selected application icons, so that the batch-selected application icons are in a movable state, and then the user drags the batch-selected application icons so that they can be moved to the target area associated with the first update control 201.

[0034] For example, S105: in response to the first input, updating the application version of the first application.

[0035] Specifically, after the application icon of the first application is dragged to the target area associated with the first update control, the application version of the first application is triggered to be updated, which can be specifically updating the application version of the first application from the current version to the latest version.

[0036] In response to the first input, after updating the application version of the first application, the first update control displays update information of the first application, and the update information includes at least one of the following: update progress, update speed, update start time, current network status (such as network speed), and the like. Wherein, in the case of updating the first application one by one, the update information of the first application currently being updated is displayed in the display area corresponding to the first update control; in the case of updating multiple first applications simultaneously, the update information of different first applications currently being updated is displayed in the display area corresponding to the first update control at a predetermined time interval, and the display area corresponding to the first update control can be a pop-up window corresponding to the first update control or the first update control itself. For example, when the first update control is a floating ball, the display area of the first update control is a floating window of the floating ball, and in the case of updating two first applications simultaneously, the update information of the two first applications is displayed in the floating window of the floating ball at an interval of 5 seconds.

[0037] The technical scheme disclosed by the embodiments of the present application can intuitively display the first icon and the first update control, and only needs the user to operate the first update control to trigger the updating of the application version of the first application, without the need for the user to find and select the application to be updated in the application store one by one, thereby shortening the time for the user to find the application to be updated, simplifying the operation, saving time, and improving the efficiency of application updating.

[0038] In a possible implementation, before S105, the application updating method further includes: receiving an eighth input to the first update control; in response to the eighth input, pausing the updating of the application version of at least one second application in the update list; receiving a ninth input to the first update control; and in response to the ninth input, resuming the updating of the application version of at least one second application in the update list.

[0039] Specifically, the eighth input can be a continuous click on the first update control for a preset number of times, a long press on the first update control, and the like, wherein the continuous click for a preset number of times can be a double click. After the eighth input to the first update control, the updating of the application versions of multiple second applications in the update list is paused simultaneously, and the updating of the application versions of all second applications in the update list can be paused. In this way, multiple second applications being updated in the update list can be paused in batches, thereby improving the efficiency of pausing the second applications being updated.

[0040] Specifically, the ninth input can be a preset number of continuous clicks on the first update control, a long press on the first update control, etc., and the preset number of continuous clicks can be double clicks. In a case where the update processes of the plurality of second applications in the update list are paused, after the ninth input on the first update control, the application versions of the plurality of second applications in the update list whose update processes are paused are simultaneously resumed, and the update list can be all the second applications whose update processes are paused. In this way, the plurality of second applications in the update list can be batch resumed, thereby improving the efficiency of the resume operation of the second applications whose update processes are paused.

[0041] Figure 4 A flowchart of an application update method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. The method can be executed by a terminal device. In other words, the method can be executed by software or hardware installed in the terminal device. As shown in Figure 4 The method can include the following steps.

[0042] S401: display a first icon and a first update control.

[0043] The first icon is used to indicate the first application.

[0044] S403: receive a first input of a user on the first update control.

[0045] S405: in response to the first input, add the first application to an update list corresponding to the first update control; and update the application version of at least one second application in the update list, the at least one second application including the first application.

[0046] Specifically, taking a floating ball as an example, after the user selects the application icon that wants to be updated in the above embodiment, the application icon is dragged to the position where the floating ball is located, and the application corresponding to the application icon dragged to the position where the floating ball is located is added to the update list. The second application in the update list is automatically updated, and the second application in the update list includes the first application newly added to the update list and the remaining applications added to the update list before the first application.

[0047] Specifically, the version of each second application in the update list is updated, if the second application in the update list is the latest version, the second application is ignored and not updated, if the second application in the update list is not the latest version, the application version of the second application is automatically updated. When updating the version of each second application in the update list, multiple second applications can be updated at the same time, or they can be updated in order from high to low according to the update priority of the second application in the update list. Among them, the update priority of the second application in the update list can be determined according to the time when the second application is added to the update list, the earlier the time, the higher the update priority, and then the second application is updated first; the update priority of the second application can also be determined according to the order of the second application in the update list, the higher the display position of the second application in the update list, the higher the update priority, and then the second application is updated first.

[0048] S407: In response to the fourth input to the first update control, display the update information of at least one second application in the update list on the first interface.

[0049] Specifically, the fourth input can be a single click on the first update control, and after the user clicks the first update control, the application update detail page (first interface) is entered, and the update information of each second application in the update list can be directly displayed in the application update detail page.

[0050] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the download page and the history record page can also be displayed in the first interface. The update information of the second application being updated and the second application to be updated in the update list is displayed on the download page, for example, the application name, patch information, update state (including updating, pausing, waiting, etc.), update progress, network state, etc. The information of the application that has been updated, such as update version, update introduction, update time, etc. is displayed in the history record page. When the user selects any one of the download page and the history record page, the content in the corresponding page is displayed.

[0051] Further, as shown in Figure 5As shown, the display positions of the update information of the second applications in the download page are displayed in the download page in a top-to-bottom order, the second application with a higher display position in the download page has a higher update priority and is updated first. In some cases, the user has a demand that the application he / she needs is updated first. In order to improve the flexibility of application update and meet the user's demand, after the update information of each second application in the update list is displayed in the first interface, a fifth input of the user on the update information of the second application in the first interface is received; in response to the fifth input, the display position of the update information of the second application in the first interface is adjusted, and the display position is associated with the application update priority, wherein different display positions correspond to different update priorities, and the second application with a higher update priority is updated first. Specifically, the fifth input can be a long press operation on the update information of the second application, for example, the user can long press the update information of the second application, and then move the update information of the second application to the top or the bottom of the first interface to change the update priority of the second application. Figure 5 As shown, the update information of each second application is displayed in the update list in the form of a row in a top-to-bottom order, the second application with a higher display position in the update list has a higher update priority and is updated first. When the user long presses the position of the row where the update information of a certain second application is located and moves it upwards or downwards, the display position is adjusted to change the update priority. If the position of the row where the update information of a certain second application is located is adjusted to the first row in the first interface, the update priority of the second application is changed to the highest and is updated first. In this way, the flexibility of application update is improved and the user's demand is met.

[0052] In addition, if the user needs to cancel the update of a certain application in the update list, the user can cancel the update of the application by swiping left or right after long pressing the update information of the second application. It is worth noting that both the application being updated and the application to be updated can be cancelled, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0053] Further, as shown in Figure 6 The application that has completed the update is recorded in the history record page. Each batch application update can form a history record and be displayed in the history record page. In order to further improve the flexibility of application update and the efficiency of application update, after the application version of the first application is updated in response to the first input, the history update information of the third application corresponding to the first update control is displayed in response to a sixth input of the user on the first update control; the third application is added to the update list corresponding to the first update control in response to a seventh input of the user; and the application version of the third application in the update list is updated. Specifically, the sixth input can be three consecutive clicks on the first update control. After the user clicks the first update control, the history record page can be directly displayed.

[0054] Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the download page and the history page can also be displayed in the first interface, and the user selects the history page to display the historical update information in the corresponding page. In the history page, the historical update information of the application that has been updated is displayed, such as the application name, the update version, the update introduction, the update time, and the like. The application that has been updated is recorded in the history page, and each batch of application update can form a historical record and be displayed in the history page, such as Figure 7 As shown, after the user clicks a historical record, a pop-up window 701 is displayed, and the pop-up window 701 displays the application name, the update version, the update introduction, the update time, and the like of the application that has been updated. After the user clicks a historical record, the control 702 can be clicked to re-initiate the update of at least one application recorded in the historical record, and the application recorded in the historical record is re-added to the update list and updated. If the application recorded in the historical record is the latest version, the application that is not the latest version is updated. For example, the user updated a batch of applications seven months ago, and at this time, the user does not need to repeat the operation of seven months ago, that is, the first operation of adding the batch of applications to the update list of the first update control, and only needs to click the circle (target control) behind the historical record to re-update the application. The application that is the latest version is ignored. In this way, when the user updates the version of the application in the historical record again, the user does not need to repeat the first operation of adding the application to the update list of the first update control, which simplifies the operation of updating the application and further improves the flexibility and efficiency of updating the application.

[0055] In addition, if the user needs to delete a historical record in the history page, the user can delete the historical record by left swiping or right swiping after long pressing the historical record.

[0056] Further, if the user wants to exit the first interface, the user only needs to click the blank area of the terminal device screen that is not the first interface, and the first interface can be exited.

[0057] Further, after the first application is updated, the installation package of the old version before the first application is updated can be temporarily cached in the terminal device. If the user is not satisfied with the various functions of the new version of the application, after updating the application version of the first application in response to the first input, the historical update information of the first application is displayed; in response to the tenth input of the user to the historical update information, the first application is rolled back from the updated application version to the application version corresponding to the historical update information. Specifically, the user can open the historical update information of the first application, and the first application is rolled back from the updated version to the old version before the update, further improving the flexibility of updating the application.

[0058] It is worth noting that S401 and S403 have the same or similar implementation as S101 and S103 described above, which can be referred to each other, and the embodiments of the present application will not be repeated here.

[0059] The technical solution disclosed by the embodiments of the present application can intuitively display the first icon and the first update control, and only needs the user to operate the first update control to trigger the updating of the application version of the first application, without the need for the user to find and select the application to be updated one by one in the application store, thereby shortening the time for the user to find the application to be updated, simplifying the operation, saving time, and improving the efficiency of application updating.

[0060] Figure 8 A flowchart of an application updating method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, which can be executed by a terminal device. In other words, the method can be executed by software or hardware installed on the terminal device. As shown in Figure 8 The method can include the following steps.

[0061] S801: Display a first icon and a first update control.

[0062] The first icon is used to indicate the first application.

[0063] S802: In response to a second input to the second update control, display at least one update mode; in response to a third input to a target update mode in the at least one update mode, display the first update control corresponding to the target update mode.

[0064] Specifically, different update modes can be set for the application updating, and the update modes include at least one of different strategies such as "immediate updating", "Wireless-Fidelity (WIFI) connection automatic updating", "lock screen automatic updating", "WIFI connection + lock screen automatic updating", and "timed updating". If multiple update modes are set, a second update control is displayed in the second interface of the mobile phone, and the second update control corresponds to the preset multiple update modes. The second update control can be a floating ball, a pop-up window, etc. with a preset identifier, and the preset identifier can be set arbitrarily, which is used to indicate that the second update control is set with multiple update modes. The second input can be at least one click on the second update control, long press on the second update control, etc., and the third input can be a click, a box selection, etc.

[0065] Taking a floating ball with a cross ball as an example, as shown in Figure 9As shown, after the user clicks the second update control 901, a pop-up window 902 is popped up, and four update modes are displayed in the pop-up window, which are "WIFI connection automatic update", "lock screen automatic update", "immediate update" and "timing update". Each row of each update mode corresponds to a control (box) 903, and the user can check the box in front of each update mode to set the checked update mode as a target update mode. After the user clicks the "OK" button in the pop-up window, a first update control corresponding to the target update mode is created. Figure 9 As shown, the user checks the selection boxes in front of "WIFI connection automatic update", "lock screen automatic update" and "immediate update", and three first update controls 201 are created correspondingly, and each first update control corresponds to one update mode.

[0066] In addition, in order to prompt the user about the first update controls of the update modes that have been created, the boxes in front of the update modes that have been created are in an unselectable state when the update modes exist.

[0067] It is worth noting that for the first update control of the "timing mode", the user can click the first update control of the "timing mode" to pop up a specific time setting page, and the user can set the timing in the time setting page.

[0068] Further, when the user wants to delete the first update control of a certain update mode, the user can drag the first update control corresponding to the update mode to the second update control again, so as to delete the first update control corresponding to the update mode.

[0069] S803: receiving a first input of the user to the first update control.

[0070] S805: in response to the first input, updating the application version of the first application according to the target update mode.

[0071] Specifically, after the user drags the first application into the first update control corresponding to the update mode, the applications in the update list of the first update control are updated according to the corresponding update mode. During the updating process, if the corresponding update mode of the first update control is not met, the updating of the applications in the update list is paused. For example, the first update control sets the update strategy of WIFI connection + automatic screen locking, and when the external environment of the terminal device meets the conditions of WIFI connection + automatic screen locking, the applications in the update list of the first update control are automatically updated. At this time, if the WIFI is disconnected, the updating of the applications in the update list of the first update control is automatically paused, and the updating will continue only when the external environment of the terminal device meets the conditions of WIFI + automatic screen locking. In order to meet the needs of the user, the user can also continue the updating by clicking the first update control of the update strategy, thereby improving the flexibility of application updating and enhancing the user experience.

[0072] Further, after setting the first update control of multiple different update modes, in order to prompt the user to the update mode corresponding to the different first update controls, when the first application is dragged to the first update control, a pop-up window of the update mode corresponding to the first update control is popped up, and the detailed information of the update mode is displayed in the pop-up window, thereby prompting the user to the update mode set by the first update control, making the application updating more intuitive, and improving the user experience.

[0073] Further, when the first application is dragged to the first update control with the set update mode, if the first application is already in the update list of another first update control, a pop-up window is popped up to display a prompt information indicating that the first application has set an update mode, and indicating the detailed information of the set update mode, thereby avoiding the problem that the same application is repeatedly set with multiple update modes and the application cannot be normally updated, and improving the reliability of application updating. If the first application is selected in batches, the check box in the upper left corner of the application with the set update mode is in a grayed-out state and is not selectable, thereby avoiding the repeated selection of the user and further improving the reliability of application updating.

[0074] The technical scheme disclosed in the embodiments of the present application can intuitively display the first icon and the first update control, and only needs the operation of the user on the first update control to trigger the updating of the application version of the first application, without the need of the user to find and select the application to be updated one by one in the application store, thereby shortening the time of the user to find the application to be updated, simplifying the operation, saving time, and improving the efficiency of application updating. In addition, the application is updated by setting multiple update modes, different update modes can be set for different applications, and the way of application updating is more diversified. Moreover, the user can select the update mode to update the application, thereby further improving the flexibility of application updating.

[0075] It is worth noting that after the first application is dragged into the first update control, the application icon of the first application is still normally displayed on the desktop. And the process of updating the first application does not affect the normal use of the application. The user can normally open the application and use various functions thereof. After the update of the application is completed, a pop-up window is popped up to prompt the user whether to reopen the first application after the update. If the user confirms to reopen the application after the update, the first application after the update is reopened. If the user does not select to reopen the first application, the first application is updated to the latest version after the user exits the application.

[0076] The application update method provided in the embodiments of the present application can be executed by an application update device. In the embodiments of the present application, the application update device is taken as an example to illustrate the application update device provided in the embodiments of the present application.
