[0037] In order to more clearly understand the content of the application, the application will be described in detail in combination with the drawings and examples.

[0038] The first aspect of the application relates to a mobile terminal lightweight function-based desktop shortcut aggregation method step flowchart. Figure 1The method, the method and the system quickly help the user to find and open the application function of the mobile terminal, greatly reduce the cognitive, learning and use cost of the user, especially for some specific groups, such as the elderly, the effect is more prominent. The method comprises:

[0039] Sa, open the super shortcut H5 page using the client browser;

[0040] Sb, generate a shortcut icon of the super shortcut H5 page on the client desktop;

[0041] S1, the client registers the URL Scheme of the application to be started to the operating system;

[0042] The URL Scheme of the application to be started is obtained by querying and screening from the Scheme library to find the URL Scheme of the application to be started.

[0043] S2, add the shortcut of the application to be started to the super shortcut H5 page;

[0044] S3, the super shortcut H5 page opens the application to be started by calling the URL Scheme of the application to be started;

[0045] Step S3 comprises the following steps:

[0046] S31, query whether the client has installed the application to be started;

[0047] S32, if the client has installed the application to be started, open the application to be started by calling the URL Scheme of the application to be started;

[0048] S33, if the client has not installed the application to be started, install the application to be started.

[0049] Edit the function name and function icon of the application to be started: the function name of the application to be started is the name of the application to be started by default; the function icon of the application to be started is the icon of the application to be started by default.

[0050] For specific function use, the user's operation steps are reduced. Taking the health treasure in the WeChat applet as an example, the operation steps in the WeChat applet are as follows: open the APP embedded in the applet (such as WeChat, Alipay, etc.)---> find the health treasure applet---> open the health treasure---> click on the personal health code self-check, and finally at least 4 operations can open. For the function item added to the super shortcut, at most 2 operations can open.

[0051] For the use of multiple functions, the user does not need to switch between various apps or applets. Through the super shortcut, the entry is unified, and there is no need to switch, so the corresponding function can be quickly found.

[0052] Super shortcut is a desktop shortcut based on H5 web version, which exposes an H5 web page that can be opened in a browser. It internally adds and manages some shortcuts, which mainly rely on the client application to register a URL scheme with the operating system. This scheme is used to launch the application from the browser or other applications. By specifying the URL field, the application can directly open certain specific pages such as WeChat payment code, subway ride code, etc. after being launched. It can also perform certain specified actions such as completing payment, etc. It can also display a certain page in the app by calling the html page in the app. The initial super shortcut desktop method is as follows:

[0053] Step 1: The user opens the H5 page of super shortcut with the mobile browser.

[0054] Step 2: Add a shortcut icon to the user's mobile desktop by adding a shortcut to the desktop in the browser.

[0055] Step 3: The user clicks on the super shortcut on the desktop, and after the page initializes, it displays the matrix of added shortcuts and the button to add shortcuts (the first time the default aggregated shortcut list is empty).

[0056] After opening the super shortcut, the overall function provided externally is mainly divided into two parts: one is the management of shortcuts, and the other is the quick access to shortcut functions. The management process of shortcuts is as follows:

[0057] Step 1: The user clicks the super shortcut button, and a function list operation interface is popped up.

[0058] Step 2: The user clicks the add button in the shortcut list. First, select the shortcut source based on the App's scheme (a kind of APP interconnection jump protocol), and add the shortcut in the remote scheme library. (Note: Select the shortcut to be added, query and filter to find the corresponding URL scheme (a commonly used scheme library is provided here, and a query service is provided externally. Many APPs on the market have publicly disclosed their end application function schemes, and some APPs can also obtain specific function scheme information through some plug-ins. By filtering and managing scheme information, a common scheme information library is established)

[0059] Step 3: Edit the shortcut function name. The default name is the name of the App to which the desktop shortcut belongs. Here you can rename it again according to your needs.

[0060] Step 4: Edit the shortcut function icon, the name defaults to the icon of the App to which the desktop shortcut belongs, and the displayed icon can be edited again according to needs here;

[0061] Step 5: Click the Finish button to complete the addition of a new shortcut function;

[0062] After completing the shortcut addition management in the super shortcut, the use of the shortcut function only needs to click the super shortcut icon, and the corresponding shortcut can be selected in the shortcut list popped up, and the specific process is as follows:

[0063] Step 1: The user opens the super shortcut icon on the desktop, and the shelf of the added shortcut and the button of adding the shortcut are displayed after the page is initialized;

[0064] Step 2: The user clicks the added function shortcut, and the H5 calls the scheme corresponding to the shortcut to query the App in the mobile phone, and whether the corresponding App has been installed is checked, if the App has been installed, the App is further called and the corresponding function page is opened through the scheme link, if the user does not install the App in the mobile phone, the user is prompted that the App has not been installed.

[0065] Another aspect of the present application also relates to a mobile terminal lightweight function-based desktop shortcut aggregation system, the structure of which is shown in Figure 2 , comprising:

[0066] The registration module is used for the client to register the URL Scheme of the application to be started to the operating system;
