[0025] 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.

[0026] 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.

[0027] The unlocking method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0028] See Figure 1 This application provides an unlocking method, including the following steps:

[0029] Step 101: Display a target unlock interface on the first electronic device; wherein the target unlock interface includes a first unlock area and a second unlock area.

[0030] For example, such as Figure 2As shown, the unlocking interface g of the first electronic device simultaneously displays a first unlocking area g1 and a second unlocking area g2; wherein, the first unlocking area g1 is used only to unlock the first electronic device, and the second unlocking area g2 is used to simultaneously unlock the first electronic device and at least one second electronic device associated with the first electronic device. The first and second unlocking areas include, but are not limited to: a fingerprint recognition area, a face recognition area, a voiceprint recognition area, and a numeric or character password input area.

[0031] In this step, the second electronic device and the first electronic device can communicate and connect via Bluetooth, WIFI, or other means.

[0032] Step 102: Receive the user's first input on the target unlock area, wherein the target unlock area is either the first unlock area or the second unlock area.

[0033] The first input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of fingerprint input, facial image input, voiceprint input, number input, character input, click input, press input, long press input, pinch input, drag input, swipe input, and swipe input. That is to say, the first input may be one of the above inputs, or it may be a combination of two or more of the above inputs.

[0034] Step 103: In response to the first input, unlock the electronic device corresponding to the target unlock area; wherein the first unlock area corresponds to a first electronic device, the second unlock area corresponds to the first electronic device and at least one second electronic device, and the second electronic device is associated with the first electronic device.

[0035] In this embodiment, a first unlock area and a second unlock area are simultaneously displayed on the target unlock interface, providing the user with two unlocking options. For example, the user can unlock only the first electronic device using the first unlock area, or simultaneously unlock the first electronic device and at least one second electronic device using the second unlock area. This caters to different user needs in various scenarios and enriches the user experience.

[0036] Furthermore, when a user uses multiple electronic devices, each device needs to be unlocked separately, leading to repeated unlocking operations and impacting efficiency. However, through the embodiments described above, the user can simultaneously unlock the first electronic device and at least one second electronic device by inputting a first signal to the second unlocking area. This simplifies the user experience and avoids the inefficiency caused by multiple unlocking operations.

[0037] In one embodiment, displaying the unlock interface on the first electronic device includes:

[0038] If at least one second electronic device associated with the first electronic device is detected, a target unlock interface is displayed on the first electronic device.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first unlock area and the second unlock area will be displayed simultaneously on the target unlock interface only if at least one second electronic device associated with the first electronic device is detected; otherwise, only the first unlock area will be displayed on the target unlock interface.

[0040] In one embodiment, prior to step 102 above, the method further includes:

[0041] Establish the association between the first electronic device and multiple second electronic devices.

[0042] For example, a user can add a list of associated devices to the first electronic device and other second electronic devices through the settings interface of the first electronic device. The second electronic devices displayed in the list include, but are not limited to, electronic products such as tablets, laptops, smartwatches, televisions, and vehicles. In this way, only electronic devices in the associated list have the authority to unlock the device based on the first unlocking area.

[0043] In one embodiment, prior to step 101 above, the method further includes:

[0044] The target unlock interface displays N identifiers corresponding to N second electronic devices;

[0045] Receive a second input from the user regarding the target identifier among the N identifiers;

[0046] In response to the second input, the second electronic device corresponding to the target identifier is associated with the second unlocking area;

[0047] Step 103 above includes:

[0048] In response to the first input, the first electronic device is unlocked, and the second electronic device corresponding to the target identifier is unlocked.

[0049] Specifically, if the number of second electronic devices that meet the target conditions is greater than one, N identifiers corresponding to the N second electronic devices are displayed on the target unlocking interface.

[0050] In this embodiment, based on the device identifiers of the N second electronic devices displayed on the target unlocking interface, the user can determine the second electronic device that meets the target conditions based on the device identifier, and select the device to be unlocked associated with the second unlocking area based on the device identifier, that is, select the second electronic device to be unlocked. In this way, the user can avoid unlocking devices that meet the target conditions but are not needed.

[0051] In one embodiment, prior to step 101 above, the method further includes:

[0052] Electronic devices that meet the target conditions are identified as the second electronic device;

[0053] The conditions for meeting the target include at least one of the following:

[0054] It is located on the same local area network as the first electronic device;

[0055] It has the same unlock password as the first electronic device;

[0056] The distance between the device and the first electronic device is less than a preset value.

[0057] In one specific embodiment, determining an electronic device that meets the target conditions as the second electronic device includes:

[0058] Receive a third input from the user to the first electronic device;

[0059] In response to the third input, an electronic device that meets the target conditions is identified as the second electronic device.

[0060] It should be noted that the third input can be input to the target unlock screen or input to the second unlock area. The third input can include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: click input, press input, long press input, pinch input, drag input, swipe input, and swipe input. That is to say, the third input can be one of the above inputs, or it can be a combination of two or more of the above inputs.

[0061] For example, when a user's click input to the second unlock area is detected, the background system detects at least one second electronic device that is currently in the same area as the first electronic device and has the same unlock password. Upon receiving the user's first input to the second unlock area, both the first electronic device and at least one second electronic device in the same area as the first electronic device and having the same unlock password are unlocked simultaneously.

[0062] In the above embodiments, by identifying at least one second electronic device that meets the target conditions as a second electronic device, the device to be unlocked associated with the second unlocking area is designated as a second electronic device. This improves the security of interconnected unlocking. For example, if a tablet and a mobile phone are associated, but the tablet and mobile phone are only connected when the distance between them is less than a preset distance, the unlock input to the first unlocking area of ​​the mobile phone will be received, and both the mobile phone and the tablet will be unlocked simultaneously. This prevents the tablet from being unlocked if it is lost or far from the user, thus preventing unauthorized use of the tablet and potential information leakage. For instance, if the password, fingerprint, and facial data set on the tablet and mobile phone are consistent, then during terminal interconnection unlocking, as long as the unlock data is recognized correctly, both the mobile phone and the tablet will be unlocked simultaneously. If the password, fingerprint, and facial data set on the tablet and mobile phone are inconsistent, then the corresponding terminal's unlocking permission must be enabled in the interconnected device list set on the mobile phone before synchronous unlocking can be performed. The interconnected device list includes multiple second electronic devices associated with the first device.

[0063] In one specific implementation, the target condition may further include: being within the same area as the first electronic device.

[0064] For example, the same area can be set as the home area, the company area, or a preset target area area. This ensures that a second electronic device within the secure area can be interconnected and unlocked.

[0065] In one embodiment, after step 103, the method further includes:

[0066] If the first electronic device is detected to be in a locked state, a lock screen instruction message is sent to the second electronic device.

[0067] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the first electronic device is in a locked state, a lock screen indication message is sent to the second electronic device to control the lock screen state of the second electronic device to be synchronized with that of the first electronic device. In this way, the number of times the user locks the screen can be reduced, and the usage efficiency can be improved.

[0068] In one embodiment, after step 103, the method further includes:

[0069] If the first electronic device is detected to be in an unlocked state, the second electronic device is controlled to remain in an unlocked state.

[0070] In this embodiment, based on the user's first input to the second unlock area, the second electronic device is in an unlocked state. By controlling the second electronic device to remain in the unlocked state, the unlocking state of the second electronic device is synchronized with that of the first electronic device. Thus, when the second electronic device is in a screen-off state, if the user needs to switch it from a screen-off state to a screen-on usable interface, they only need to perform a "wake-up" operation (e.g., clicking a button, or using voice commands), without needing to enter an unlock password. This reduces the number of unlocking operations required by the user and improves efficiency.

[0071] The unlocking method described above in this application will be explained below for an application scenario where the first electronic device is a mobile phone.

[0072] Step 1: The phone screen displays two types of fingerprint unlock icons.

[0073] As one implementation method, users can add a list of associated devices to their phone through the phone's settings. When the phone detects that another device is connected (the connection method can be Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc.), two types of fingerprint unlock icons are displayed on the phone's fingerprint unlock screen; specifically, one fingerprint unlock icon is located in... Figure 2 Within the first unlocking area g1 shown, another fingerprint unlock icon is located as follows: Figure 2 Within the second unlocked area g2 shown.

[0074] Step 2: Upon detecting an unlock operation, identify the unlock type; unlock types include: interconnected unlock (unlocking both the phone and other devices simultaneously) and regular unlock (unlocking only the phone).

[0075] Specifically, when the phone receives a fingerprint input operation from the user on the first unlocking area g1, only the phone is unlocked; when the phone receives a fingerprint input operation from the user on the second unlocking area g2, both the phone and the target terminal associated with the phone are unlocked simultaneously.

[0076] As one implementation method, when the mobile phone receives the user's fingerprint input operation on the second unlocking area g2, if it is determined by detection that there is only one terminal currently connected to the mobile phone, the mobile phone and this terminal are unlocked directly; if it is determined that there is more than one terminal connected to the mobile phone, the device identifier of the currently connected terminal is displayed above the fingerprint recognition area, and after the user drags it to the area where a device identifier is located, the mobile phone and the target terminal corresponding to that device identifier are unlocked.

[0077] Step 3: Keep the unlocked and locked states of the target terminal and the mobile phone synchronized.

[0078] Optionally, after unlocking the mobile phone and the target terminal, if the user operates on the mobile phone, the target terminal can be controlled to be in an unlocked state with the screen off. In this way, when the user needs to use the target terminal, the screen can be turned on directly from the off state without the user having to perform an additional unlocking operation. This reduces the number of unlocking operations and avoids the consumption of the terminal's power.

[0079] In one exemplary scenario, when a user is using electronic devices at home, if they want to use a tablet while using their mobile phone, even though the phone is unlocked, they still need to unlock the tablet (e.g., enter a password) before they can use it, which is cumbersome. However, using the unlocking method of this application, if a connection is established between the mobile phone and the tablet, then unlocking via interconnection can achieve simultaneous unlocking of the tablet based on the unlocking operation of the mobile phone.

[0080] The above embodiments enable simultaneous unlocking of multiple connected electronic devices via mobile phone, reducing the time and steps required for users to unlock different electronic devices one by one, and improving user experience and operational efficiency.
