Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of communication technology, specifically relating to an information display method, device, and electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of communication technology, electronic devices have become more powerful. For example, the remote control function of electronic devices allows one device to control another.

[0003] Typically, after a remote connection is established between the controlling device and the controlled device, the controlling device's screen displays the content from the controlled device's screen. This prevents the user from viewing the controlling device's own screen during remote control operations. For example, when remotely controlling a controlled device, the controlling device's screen may display the controlled device's main interface, preventing the user from viewing the controlling device's own content. This results in poor display quality and low flexibility for the electronic device. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an information display method, device, and electronic device that can solve the problems of poor display effect and low flexibility of the control device.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide an information display method, the method comprising: receiving a first input; responding to the first input, connecting a first electronic device and a second electronic device, displaying first information on a first screen, and displaying second information on a second screen, wherein the first information is information displayed by the first electronic device, and the second information is information displayed on a third screen of the second electronic device.

[0006] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide an information display device, which includes: a receiving module, a control module, and a display module, wherein: the receiving module is used to receive a first input; the control module is used to connect a first electronic device and a second electronic device in response to the first input received by the receiving module; and the display module is used to display first information on a first screen and second information on a second screen after the control module connects the first electronic device and the second electronic device, wherein the first information is information displayed by the first electronic device and the second information is information displayed on a third screen of the second electronic device.

[0007] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide an electronic device including a processor and a memory, wherein the memory stores programs or instructions executable on the processor, and the programs or instructions, when executed by the processor, implement the steps of the method described in the first aspect.

[0008] Fourthly, embodiments of this application provide a readable storage medium on which a program or instructions are stored, which, when executed by a processor, implement the steps of the method described in the first aspect.

[0009] Fifthly, embodiments of this application provide a chip, the chip including a processor and a communication interface, the communication interface being coupled to the processor, the processor being used to run programs or instructions to implement the method as described in the first aspect.

[0010] In a sixth aspect, embodiments of this application provide a computer program product stored in a storage medium, which is executed by at least one processor to implement the method described in the first aspect.

[0011] In this embodiment, a first electronic device receives a first input, connects to a second electronic device, displays first information on a first screen, and displays second information on a second screen. The first information is the information displayed by the first electronic device, and the second information is the information displayed on a third screen of the second electronic device. With this solution, when the first electronic device includes at least two screens, after a remote connection is established between the first and second electronic devices, the first electronic device can display its own second information on the first screen and the information from the third screen of the second electronic device on the second screen. This allows the user to view the information displayed on the screen of the second electronic device on one screen of the first electronic device and the original information on the screen of the first electronic device on the other screen of the first electronic device. Thus, the user does not need to repeatedly trigger the control device (i.e., the first electronic device) to frequently switch interfaces, simplifying the operation of the control device to display content that meets the user's needs and improving the flexibility of information display.

[0018] Figure 7 This is a hardware schematic diagram of the server provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and the number of objects is not limited; for example, a first object can be one or more. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0021] In related technologies, remote control of electronic devices is a commonly used function. Specifically, a controlling device can control a controlled device. However, when using the remote control function, the controlling device displays the information displayed on the screen of the controlled device. Due to the limited screen size of the controlling device, the following problems exist when using the remote control function: (1) When performing the remote control function, the controlling device only displays the information displayed on the screen of the controlled device and cannot display the information on the screen of the controlling device, resulting in poor display flexibility; (2) If the user wants to share the information of the controlling device to the controlled device, the user needs to trigger the exit of the remote control interface displayed by the controlling device, then trigger the controlling device to display the desired information, and finally trigger the controlling device to share through a third-party application. This requires the user to trigger the controlling device to frequently switch interfaces, resulting in the controlling device... The operation of sharing information by the controlled party is relatively cumbersome; (3) If a user wants to install an application on the controlled party's device, the user needs to trigger the controlled party's device to display the store application, and then trigger the controlled party's device to download and install the application when the application is displayed on the controlled party's device. This makes it necessary for the user to first search for the application to be installed on the controlled party's device before triggering the download and installation of the application, which makes the entire process of installing the application on the controlled party's device cumbersome; (4) If a user wants to demonstrate or view content on the controlling party's device, but cannot directly synchronize it to the controlled party's device, the user needs to trigger the operation on the controlling party's device and then trigger the controlled party's device to perform the same operation again, which makes it relatively cumbersome to demonstrate the operation on the controlling party's device on the controlled party's device.

[0022] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides an information display method. When the first electronic device includes at least two screens, after establishing a remote connection between the first and second electronic devices, the first electronic device can display its own second information on the first screen and information from the third screen of the second electronic device on the second screen. This allows users to view the information displayed on the screen of the second electronic device on one screen of the first electronic device and the original information on the screen of the first electronic device on the other screen. Furthermore, users can conveniently and quickly share information with the second electronic device through operations on the first screen. For example, a user can share an application installation package to be installed on the second electronic device from the first screen, enabling the application to be quickly installed on the second electronic device. Additionally, the first electronic device can receive a third input from the user on the first screen and synchronize the corresponding operation to the second electronic device, allowing users to view the demonstration operation on the first electronic device on the second electronic device.

[0023] The information display method, apparatus, and electronic device provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, this application provides an information display method, which uses a first electronic device and includes the following steps S201 and S202.

[0025] S201, Receive the first input.

[0026] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, the first electronic device may be a foldable screen electronic device or a dual-screen electronic device.

[0027] Optionally, the first electronic device can be a foldable screen electronic device or a dual-screen electronic device.

[0028] Optionally, in this embodiment, the first input can be a user's touch input, voice input, gesture input, input from the foldable screen of the foldable electronic device, or other feasible inputs; this embodiment does not limit this. For example, the first input can be a user's click input, swipe input, press input, etc. Further, the click operation can be any number of clicks. The swipe operation can be a swipe operation in any direction, such as swiping up, swiping down, swiping left, or swiping right, etc.; this embodiment does not limit this.

[0029] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the first input is used to establish a remote connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

[0030] It should be noted that after establishing a remote connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device, the user can control the second electronic device through the first electronic device.

[0031] Optionally, the first input mentioned above is the user's input to the program interface of the target application.

[0032] Optionally, the target application mentioned above is an application with remote control functionality.

[0033] S202. In response to the first input, connect the first electronic device and the second electronic device, display the first information on the first screen, and display the second information on the second screen.

[0034] The first information is the information displayed by the first electronic device, and the second information is the information displayed on the third screen of the second electronic device.

[0035] Optionally, in an embodiment of this application, the first electronic device receives a first input and establishes a remote connection with the second electronic device.

[0036] Optionally, the first electronic device is a controlling electronic device, and the second electronic device is a controlled electronic device. In this way, the user can view the content on the screen of the second electronic device through the first electronic device.

[0037] Optionally, upon receiving the first input, the folding screen of the first electronic device is folded, and the second screen of the first electronic device is controlled to be in a screen-off state; or, upon receiving the first input, the screen content on the second screen is canceled so that the information displayed by the second electronic device can be displayed on the second screen after the connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device is established.

[0038] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, when the first electronic device is a foldable screen electronic device, the first screen and the second screen can be two screens hinged together by a hinge, or the first screen and the second screen can be different screen areas of a whole flexible screen. For example, the first screen can be the left half of the whole screen, and the second screen can be the right half of the whole flexible screen. The folding axis can be located at the center line of the flexible screen, and the user can fold the flexible screen along the folding axis. As another example, the first screen can be the right half of the whole screen, and the second screen can be the left half of the whole flexible screen.

[0039] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, the first screen and the second screen can display content independently or as a whole.

[0040] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, when the first electronic device is a dual-screen electronic device, the first screen and the second screen are located on the same plane, or the first screen and the second screen are located on different planes and the screens face opposite directions. For example, both the first screen and the second screen are located on the front of the electronic device; or, for another example, the first screen is located on the front of the electronic device and the second screen is located on the back of the electronic device, that is, the first screen is the main screen and the second screen is the secondary screen.

[0041] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the content displayed on the first screen of the first electronic device before establishing the connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device may be different from the content displayed on the first screen of the first electronic device after establishing the connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

[0042] Optionally, before establishing a remote connection with the second electronic device, the first screen of the first electronic device displays first content; after establishing a remote connection with the second electronic device, first information is displayed, wherein the first information is different from the first content. For example, the aforementioned first information may be the desktop of the first electronic device, or a specific interface, etc.

[0043] Optionally, after establishing a remote connection with the second electronic device, the content displayed on the first screen of the first electronic device is the same as the content displayed before establishing the remote connection with the second electronic device.

[0044] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, the first information and the second information mentioned above can each include at least one of the following: program interface, web page, text, image, icon, address link, etc. The first information and the second information mentioned above can also be other information, and the embodiments of this application do not limit them in any way.

[0045] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, when the second electronic device is a single-sided screen, the third screen is a portion of the single-sided screen or a foldable single-sided screen; when the second electronic device is a multi-sided screen, the third screen can be one of the multi-sided screens or multiple screens.

[0046] It is understandable that, in the case that the screen of the second electronic device is a multi-screen, the third screen is a screen that is selected by default from the multi-screen or by user-defined selection.

[0047] This application provides an information display method. A first electronic device receives a first input, connects to a second electronic device, and displays first information on a first screen and second information on a second screen. The first information is the information displayed by the first electronic device, and the second information is the information displayed on a third screen of the second electronic device. With this method, when the first electronic device includes at least two screens, after a remote connection is established between the first and second electronic devices, the first electronic device can display its own second information on the first screen and the information from the third screen of the second electronic device on the second screen. This allows a user to view the information displayed on the screen of the second electronic device on one screen of the first electronic device and the original information on the screen of the first electronic device on the other screen of the first electronic device. This eliminates the need for the user to repeatedly trigger the control device (i.e., the first electronic device) to frequently switch interfaces, simplifying the operation of the control device to display content that meets the user's needs and improving the flexibility of information display.

[0048] Optionally, in this embodiment, the second screen displays third information;

[0049] Optionally, displaying the second information on the second screen in S202 above may include the following S202a:

[0050] S202a: Cancel the display of the third information on the second screen and display the second information on the second screen.

[0051] Optionally, the aforementioned third information is the original information in the second screen. For example, the third information is the desktop or a certain application interface displayed in the second screen.

[0052] Optionally, in the case of a remote connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device, the first electronic device cancels the display of the original information displayed on the second screen of the first electronic device and displays the second information on the second screen.

[0053] For example, when the first electronic device and the second electronic device are remotely connected and the first electronic device is in a folded state, the system receives input from the user to unfold the folded screen, cancels the display of the content on the second screen, and displays the second information on the second screen.

[0054] Understandably, in the case of a remote connection between the first and second electronic devices, the user can trigger updates to the content displayed on the second screen according to actual needs. This increases the user's degree of autonomy.

[0055] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown in (a), the first electronic device displays the identifiers of application 1, application 2, ..., and application 7 on screen 01, and information 03 on screen 02. If a user wants to control the second electronic device through the first electronic device, then in the case of a remote connection between the first and second electronic devices, as shown in (a), the second electronic device can control the second electronic device. Figure 2 As shown in (b), the first electronic device cancels the display of information 04 on screen 02 and displays information 04 from the screen of the second electronic device on screen 02 (i.e., the second screen). Thus, the user can view the applications installed on the first electronic device on screen 01 and view the information displayed on the screen of the second electronic device on screen 02.

[0056] The information display method provided in this application embodiment, when the second screen displays third information and the first electronic device and the second electronic device are remotely connected, cancels the original information displayed on the second screen of the first electronic device and displays the second information displayed on the third screen of the second electronic device on the second screen. In this way, the user can use one screen of the first electronic device to view the information displayed on the screen of the second electronic device, thereby improving the flexibility of information display.

[0057] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, the above-mentioned S202a may include the following S202a1:

[0058] S202a1: Cancel the display of the third information on the second screen, display the second information on the second screen, and display the third information on the first screen.

[0059] For example, when the second information of the second electronic device is displayed on the second screen of the first electronic device, the original information displayed on the second screen of the first electronic device is displayed on the first screen of the first electronic device.

[0060] For example, after establishing a remote connection between electronic device 1 (i.e., the first electronic device) and electronic device 2 (i.e., the second electronic device), the program interface of application A displayed on the right screen (i.e., the second screen) of electronic device 1 is canceled, the desktop of electronic device 2 is displayed on the right screen of electronic device 1, and the program interface of application A is displayed on the left screen of electronic device 1.

[0061] In this way, while the desktop of electronic device 2 is displayed on the right screen of electronic device 1, the program interface that was originally displayed on the right screen can still be displayed on the left screen. This allows the user to remotely control electronic device 2 through electronic device 1 without interrupting the historical operation of application A on electronic device 1, thus displaying information more flexibly according to the user's needs.

[0062] Optionally, in the embodiments of this application, after S202 above, the information display method provided in the embodiments of this application may further include the following S203 and S204.

[0063] S203, The first electronic device receives a second input from the user regarding the fourth information displayed on the first screen.

[0064] The first piece of information mentioned above includes the fourth piece of information.

[0065] S204. In response to the second input, the first electronic device displays the fourth information on the second screen and sends the target information associated with the fourth information to the second electronic device, such that the storage path of the target information in the first electronic device is the same as the storage path of the target information in the second electronic device.

[0066] Optionally, the aforementioned fourth information can be any of the following: text identifier, application icon, audio identifier, video identifier, thumbnail, etc.

[0067] Optionally, the second input can be touch input, voice input, or gesture input from the user to the fourth information. For example, the touch input could be the user dragging the fourth information from the first screen to the second screen. Alternatively, the touch input could include a long press on the fourth information or a click on the share control.

[0068] Optionally, the target information may include at least one of the following: documents, images, videos, and application installation packages, etc.

[0069] For example, if the fourth information is a text identifier, the target information can be a Word document, PowerPoint presentation, or spreadsheet; if the fourth information is an application icon, the target information is the data package of the application corresponding to that application icon; if the fourth information is an audio identifier, the target information is audio; if the fourth information is a video identifier, the target information is video; if the fourth information is a thumbnail, the target information is an image.

[0070] It is understandable that, when the fourth information is an application icon, the above-mentioned step S204 of sending the target information associated with the fourth information to the second electronic device may specifically include: the first electronic device packaging the data packet of the application corresponding to the application icon and sending the data packet to the second electronic device.

[0071] For example, when the fourth piece of information is an application icon, after S204 above, the information display method provided in this application embodiment may further include: the second electronic device receiving a data packet of the application corresponding to the application icon, and parsing and installing the data packet. Thus, after the second electronic device installs the data packet, it displays the application icon on the third screen, thereby displaying the application icon on the second screen of the first electronic device.

[0072] It should be noted that in S204, the target information associated with the fourth information can be sent to the second electronic device first, and then the fourth information can be displayed on the second screen; or, in S107, the fourth information can be displayed on the second screen first, and then the target information associated with the fourth information can be sent to the second electronic device; or, the target information associated with the fourth information can be sent to the second electronic device and the fourth information can be displayed on the second screen simultaneously. Thus, the specific execution order can be determined according to the actual usage, and this application embodiment does not limit the execution sequence of the two.

[0073] For example, in conjunction with the above Figure 2 In (b) of the example, if the user wants to share an image from the first electronic device with the second electronic device, they can drag image 05 to screen 02. Upon receiving this drag input, the first electronic device can respond by sending the image data associated with image 05 to the second electronic device, and so on. Figure 3 As shown, image 05 is displayed on screen 02 (i.e., the second screen). Thus, in the case of a remote connection between the first and second electronic devices, the user can directly trigger the sharing of images from the first electronic device to the second electronic device without the need for a third-party application.

[0074] For example, in conjunction with the above Figure 2In (b) of the diagram, if the user wants to share application 4 of the first electronic device with the second electronic device, they can drag the identifier 06 of application 4 to screen 02. After receiving this drag input, the first electronic device can, in response to the drag input, send a data packet associated with identifier 06 to the second electronic device, causing the second electronic device to install the data packet upon receipt, and... Figure 4 As shown, the identifier 06 is displayed on screen 02 (i.e., the second screen). Thus, in the case of a remote connection between the first and second electronic devices, the user can trigger the sharing of applications from the first electronic device to the second electronic device by inputting information, without needing to download the application from the second electronic device's app store, making the operation convenient.

[0075] The information display method provided in this application embodiment allows a user to trigger the display of fourth information on a second screen by inputting fourth information on the first screen of a first electronic device, and send target information associated with the fourth information to the second electronic device. Thus, the user can directly trigger the first electronic device to share information to the second electronic device according to actual needs, and view the shared information on the screen of the first electronic device without sharing information through a third-party application on the first electronic device.

[0076] Optionally, after S202 above, the information display method provided in this application embodiment may further include S205 to S207.

[0077] S205, The first electronic device receives the third input from the user's first screen.

[0078] Optionally, the fifth input can be a user's touch input, voice input, or gesture input. For example, the touch input could be a user clicking on a multi-screen interactive control displayed on the screen of the first electronic device.

[0079] S206. The first electronic device responds to the third input, performs the first operation corresponding to the third input, and sends a first control command to the second electronic device.

[0080] The first control command is used to control the second electronic device to perform a second operation, which is related to the first operation.

[0081] Optionally, the third input can be a user's touch input, voice input, or gesture input. For example, the touch input could be a user's click on a control displayed on the first screen, which triggers the display of the desktop of the first electronic device.

[0082] Optionally, the first operation described above may include at least one of the following: setting parameters, launching a specific application, etc. For example, setting parameters may include setting application parameters, such as setting a timer reminder for a clock.

[0083] Optionally, the second operation described above is related to the first operation. For example, if the first operation is to set the brightness parameters and page-turning speed parameters of reading application A in the first electronic device, then the second operation is to set the brightness parameters and page-turning speed parameters of reading application A in the second electronic device.

[0084] Optionally, the first control command described above is used to instruct the second electronic device to perform the second operation.

[0085] S207. The first electronic device displays the fifth information corresponding to the second operation on the second screen.

[0086] Optionally, the fifth piece of information mentioned above may include any of the following: application icon, desktop, settings interface, etc.

[0087] It should be noted that the fifth piece of information is determined based on the second operation. When the second operation is different, the fifth piece of information will also change accordingly.

[0088] For example, when the first electronic device receives a response message from the second electronic device allowing multi-screen interaction, the user clicks the close control on the first screen of the first electronic device. After receiving the click input to the close control, the first electronic device can respond to the click input by canceling the display of the content on the first screen, displaying the desktop of the first electronic device on the first screen, and sending a first control command to the second electronic device.

[0089] Optionally, after the second electronic device receives the first control command, the second electronic device displays its desktop on the third screen.

[0090] This facilitates the operation of the second electronic device at the remote end by the first electronic device.

[0091] The information display method provided in this application embodiment allows a user to perform a first operation corresponding to a third input after displaying second information on a second screen, and then send a first control command to a second electronic device. Upon receiving a response from the second electronic device allowing multi-screen interaction, a second operation related to the first operation is performed on the second electronic device, and fifth information corresponding to the second operation can be displayed on the second screen. This synchronizes the operation of the first electronic device to the second electronic device, allowing the user to simultaneously view and compare the content displayed on different screens of the first electronic device. This enables the content displayed on the second screen of the first electronic device to update as the user interacts with the first screen, achieving multi-screen interaction.

[0092] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the third input is used to trigger the setting parameters of the first application in the first electronic device to be set as the first setting parameters;

[0093] Optionally, sending the first control command to the second electronic device in S206 above may include the following S206a:

[0094] S206a: Send the first setting parameters to the second electronic device.

[0095] The second operation includes updating the setting parameters of the first application in the second electronic device to the first setting parameters.

[0096] For example, when the third input is an input to the settings interface displayed on the first screen, the first operation corresponding to the third input is performed, specifically including: the first electronic device sets the target parameters according to the input parameters of the third input.

[0097] Furthermore, the second electronic device sets the parameters on the settings interface of the third screen of the second electronic device according to the target parameters.

[0098] For example, when the third input is the user dragging the first icon to the second screen, the first electronic device sends the first setting parameters of the first application corresponding to the first icon to the second electronic device.

[0099] The second operation includes updating the setting parameters of the first application in the second electronic device to the first setting parameters.

[0100] Optionally, the first electronic device displays multiple icons on the first screen, and the first icon is any one of the multiple icons.

[0101] Understandably, when the third input is the user dragging the first icon to the second screen, the user can use this third input to trigger the first electronic device to send the first setting parameters of the first application corresponding to the first icon to the second electronic device. This allows the user to control the second electronic device to update the settings parameters of the first application to the first setting parameters. Thus, there's no need to perform the same operation on the second electronic device after setting it on the first, simplifying the control of the remote device.

[0102] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, before S205 above, the information display method provided in this embodiment of the application may further include the following S207 to S209:

[0103] S207: Receive the user's fourth input.

[0104] S208: In response to the fourth input, send a multi-screen linkage request message to the second electronic device.

[0105] S209: Receive a response message from the second electronic device that allows multi-screen interaction.

[0106] Optionally, the first electronic device displays multi-screen linkage controls.

[0107] Optionally, when the multi-screen linkage control is used to trigger the multi-screen linkage function, after the first electronic device displays the multi-screen linkage control, the first electronic device receives user input on the multi-screen linkage control; in response to the input, the first electronic device grays out at least one icon on the first screen. Herein, the at least one icon is the icon of at least one application that does not support the multi-screen linkage function.

[0108] Optionally, there are two possible scenarios for the above-mentioned at least one application: the first scenario is that at least one application itself does not support the multi-screen linkage function; the second scenario is that the user triggers the shutdown of the multi-screen linkage function of the at least one application in advance.

[0109] Optionally, the aforementioned multi-screen linkage request information is used to request multi-screen linkage with the second electronic device.

[0110] Optionally, after receiving the multi-screen linkage request information, the second electronic device displays a prompt message to indicate whether the user of the second electronic device allows the first electronic device to perform multi-screen linkage with the second electronic device. The second electronic device receives the user's input regarding the prompt message; in response to the input, it activates the multi-screen linkage function and sends a response message allowing multi-screen linkage to the first device. Thus, after the first electronic device sends the first control command to the second electronic device, since the second electronic device receives the first control command and can display the prompt message, the user can trigger whether to activate the multi-screen linkage function according to actual needs.

[0111] For example, the above prompt message is "Do you allow the controlling device to perform multi-screen interaction on your mobile phone?"

[0112] Optionally, if the second electronic device rejects multi-screen interaction (i.e., if no response message from the second electronic device allowing multi-screen interaction is received), the first electronic device may receive a message from the second electronic device instructing it to reject multi-screen interaction. In this way, the first and second electronic devices cannot achieve multi-screen interaction.

[0113] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after displaying the first information on the first screen and the second information on the second screen in S202 above, the information display method provided in this embodiment of the application may further include the following S202a2 and S202a3:

[0114] S202a2: Receive the fifth input for the sixth information in the first screen.

[0115] S202a3: In response to the fifth input mentioned above, obtain the first parameter of the sixth information, and set the parameter of the seventh information related to the sixth information in the second screen as the first parameter.

[0116] Optionally, the fifth input mentioned above can be any feasible input such as touch input, voice input, or gesture input.

[0117] For example, the fifth input mentioned above is the input for the user to drag the sixth information from the second screen to the first screen.

[0118] Optionally, the aforementioned sixth piece of information may be an application identifier, an image, or a video, etc., and this application embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.

[0119] Optionally, if the sixth piece of information is an application identifier, the first parameter is a setting parameter of the application indicated by that application identifier. For example, if the sixth piece of information is the application icon of social application B, then the first parameter could be the font size, message notification ringtone, or message notification volume of the application interface of social application B.

[0120] Optionally, the seventh piece of information is related to the sixth piece of information. For example, the seventh and sixth pieces of information are of the same type. For example, if the sixth piece of information is the application icon of social application B in the first electronic device, then the seventh piece of information is the application icon of social application B in the second electronic device.

[0121] For example, the first screen of the first electronic device displays its own desktop, and the second screen displays the desktop of the second electronic device. The desktop displayed on the second screen includes an application icon for video playback application A. If the user drags the application icon of video playback application A from the second screen to the first screen, the volume and brightness parameters of video playback application A on the second electronic device will be adjusted to be the same as those of video playback application A on the first electronic device, so that the brightness and volume parameters of video playback application A on the second electronic device and the first electronic device are consistent.

[0122] Thus, when the first electronic device and the second electronic device are connected, the setting parameters of the target application in the second electronic device can be set to be the same as the setting parameters of the same application in the first electronic device based on the user's fifth input on the first screen, thereby quickly realizing the synchronization of application setting parameters between the first electronic device and the second electronic device for the same application.
