[0030] 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.

[0031] 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.

[0032] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, details the method, apparatus, electronic device, and medium for displaying folder icons provided in this application through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0033] The folder icon display method provided in this application embodiment is applied to the scenario of searching for applications from folders. The specific application scenario can be determined according to the usage requirements, and this application does not limit it.

[0034] For example, consider a folder containing four applications (e.g., APP1, APP2, APP3, and APP4). If a user wants to perform an operation on APP1 within folder 1, they must first open folder 1, then locate the APP1 icon among the four application icons, and perform the operation on the application corresponding to APP1. Since this requires at least two steps to complete the operation on the application, the process is cumbersome and inefficient.

[0035] In this embodiment, the electronic device can create a folder component 2 containing the four applications mentioned above. If a user wants to operate on APP1 within this folder component 2, they can directly click the APP1 icon displayed in the display area of ​​this folder component 2 to perform the operation on the application corresponding to that APP1 icon. Therefore, only one operation step is required to complete the operation on the application, simplifying the user's operation process and improving operational efficiency.

[0036] The execution subject of the folder icon display method provided in this embodiment can be a folder icon display device, which can be an electronic device, or a control module or processing module in the electronic device, etc. The following will use an electronic device as an example to describe the technical solution provided in this application embodiment.

[0037] This application provides a method for displaying folder icons, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method for displaying the folder icon may include the following steps 201 to 203:

[0038] Step 201: The electronic device displays the target folder icon.

[0039] In this embodiment of the application, the folder corresponding to the target folder icon includes at least two target application icons.

[0040] In this embodiment of the application, the folder corresponding to the target folder icon is an atomic folder.

[0041] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned atomic folder is a folder created based on the atomic component capabilities of the operating system.

[0042] In this embodiment of the application, the at least two target application icons can be sorted among the target folder icons according to the user's usage frequency.

[0043] In this embodiment of the application, the target folder icon displays application icon information of at least one target application icon. For example, the electronic device can display the application icon information of one or more target application icons that are most frequently used within a predetermined time period (e.g., within the past week) in the target folder icon according to usage time.

[0044] In one possible embodiment, prior to step 201, the method for displaying the folder icon provided in this application includes the following steps 201a to 201b:

[0045] Step 201a: The electronic device receives a seventh input for at least two application icons.

[0046] In this embodiment of the application, the above-mentioned at least two application icons can be at least two of the application icons of all applications installed on the electronic device.

[0047] In this embodiment of the application, the seventh input is used to select the at least two application icons, or the seventh input is used to select the initial application icon for the atomic folder to be created.

[0048] In this embodiment, the seventh input may include: user touch input, click input, user voice command, or user specific gesture. The specific input can be set according to actual needs.

[0049] For example, the aforementioned click input can be single-click input, double-click input, or any number of clicks; the aforementioned click input can also be long-press input or short-press input; the aforementioned specific gesture can be any one of the following: single-click gesture, swipe gesture, pressure recognition gesture, long-press gesture, area change gesture, double-press gesture, double-tap gesture, and the specific gesture can be set according to actual needs.

[0050] Step 201b: The electronic device responds to the seventh input and generates a target folder icon.

[0051] In this embodiment of the application, the target folder icon can be the icon of the atomic folder.

[0052] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the step 201b above, "the electronic device responds to the seventh input and generates a target folder icon", may include the following steps 201b1 to 201b3:

[0053] Step 201b1: The electronic device responds to the seventh input, generates an atomic folder, and displays the folder interface corresponding to the atomic folder.

[0054] Step 201b2: The electronic device receives the ninth input.

[0055] In this embodiment of the application, the ninth input is used to trigger the electronic device to add an application to the atomic folder.

[0056] In this embodiment of the application, the ninth input can be a user's touch input or other feasible input.

[0057] Step 201b3: The electronic device responds to the ninth input by adding the fourth application icon to the Atom folder.

[0058] For example, the ninth input described above is the input where the user moves the fourth application icon from among all the application icons installed on the electronic device to the folder interface. For instance, the ninth input could be the drag-and-drop input where the user drags the fourth application icon to the folder interface.

[0059] For example, the ninth input described above is used to trigger the electronic device to categorize all applications installed on the electronic device. Further, the application corresponding to the fourth application icon described above belongs to the same category as the applications corresponding to the at least two target application icons described above.

[0060] For example, the process of an electronic device generating an atomic folder includes the following steps:

[0061] 1) Select the initial application. For example, as shown in Figure 2(a), there are 4 application icons displayed on the desktop 21 (such as APP1, APP2, APP3, and APP4). At this time, if the user wants to create an atomic folder, he / she can long press the APP1 icon (i.e., the icon of the initial application mentioned above), and the "Generate Atomic Folder" control A will be displayed in the upper right corner of the APP1 icon.

[0062] 2) The folder interface for generating atomic folders (e.g., the floating window of atomic folders). For example, referring to Figure 2(a), after the user clicks the "Generate Atomic Folder" control A, as shown in Figure 2(b), the electronic device will create an atomic folder containing the APP1 icon and display the corresponding floating window 211 (i.e. the folder interface mentioned above) on the desktop 21. The floating window 211 contains the APP1 icon.

[0063] 3) Categorize other applications into this atomic folder.

[0064] Example 1: The desktop (or any other interface containing application icons) can intelligently categorize and display application icons of the same type as the initial application in a primary display mode (e.g., highlighted) to prompt the user that these application icons belong to the same type as the initial application. Furthermore, a "One-Click Categorization" button can be displayed at the bottom of the desktop to trigger the electronic device to categorize the applications corresponding to the application icons on the desktop.

[0065] For example, the above-mentioned intelligent classification can be achieved by categorizing applications using the category tags contained in each application in the app store of an electronic device. For instance, each application in the app store is tagged with one or more application tags. When performing intelligent classification, the electronic device first extracts the first tag of APP1, and then scans other applications on the desktop, highlighting the icons of applications that have the same tag as APP1.

[0066] For example, referring to Figure 2(b), desktop 21 displays three application icons (such as APP2, APP3, and APP4) and a "one-click categorization" control B. As shown in Figure 2(c), after the user clicks the "one-click categorization" control B, the electronic device triggers the electronic device to categorize the application icons on desktop 21. Since APP3, APP4, and APP1 belong to the same type of APP, the icons of APP3 and APP4 are highlighted. At this time, the electronic device will add APP3 and APP4 to the aforementioned atomic folder.

[0067] In addition, if a user feels that the intelligent categorization results on the desktop are incorrect, they can manually click on the incorrect application icon to de-highlight that application icon.

[0068] Example 2: Electronic devices can proactively move application icons from the desktop (excluding the initial application icon) into the folder interface of this atomic folder. This categorizes these application icons into the atomic folder.

[0069] For example, as shown in Figure 2(d) in conjunction with Figure 2(b), the user can directly move the APP3 icon and the APP4 icon into the floating window 211 corresponding to the atomic folder, thereby triggering the electronic device to add APP3 and APP4 to the aforementioned atomic folder.

[0070] In this way, by inputting the application icon, the electronic device can be directly triggered to generate and display the target folder icon, and the application icons contained in the target folder icon can be flexibly adjusted, which improves the flexibility of generating the target folder icon.

[0071] In another possible embodiment, the target folder icon is a second type of folder icon. Before step 201, the folder icon display method provided in this application embodiment may further include the following steps 201c and 201d:

[0072] Step 201c: The electronic device receives the eighth input for the universal folder icon.

[0073] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned general folder icon is a folder icon of the first type.

[0074] In this embodiment of the application, the first type is used to indicate that the size of the general folder icon cannot be adjusted.

[0075] In this embodiment of the application, the eighth input can be the user's touch input to the general folder icon, or other feasible inputs.

[0076] In this embodiment of the application, the eighth input is used to trigger the electronic device to change the type of the folder icon.

[0077] Step 201d: The electronic device responds to the eighth input by changing the type of the general folder icon from the first type to the second type.

[0078] In this embodiment of the application, the second type is used to indicate that the size of the converted folder icon can be adjusted.

[0079] Understandably, upon receiving the eighth input, the electronic device will convert the general folder into an atomic folder.

[0080] For example, the process of an electronic device generating an atomic folder includes the following steps:

[0081] 1) Select the general folder.

[0082] 2) Change the general folder to an atomic folder.

[0083] 3) Categorize other applications into this atomic folder.

[0084] It should be noted that the process described in 3) above can be referred to the detailed description of application classification above, and will not be repeated here.

[0085] In this way, by inputting a generic folder icon, the electronic device can be directly triggered to convert the generic folder into an atomic folder. Therefore, the entire process does not require the user to manually remove the generic folder, and can directly convert the generic folder into an atomic folder, thereby improving the efficiency of generating the target folder icon.

[0086] Step 202: The electronic device receives the first input for adjusting the icon size of the target folder icon.

[0087] In this embodiment of the application, the first input is used to trigger the electronic device to update the display of the target folder icon.

[0088] In this embodiment of the application, the first input mentioned above can be a user's swipe input of the target folder icon, or other feasible inputs.

[0089] In this embodiment of the application, adjusting the icon size of the target folder icon may include: increasing the icon size or decreasing the icon size.

[0090] Step 203: The electronic device responds to the first input and updates the display of the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size; wherein the updated target folder icon displays application icon information of at least one of the at least two target application icons, or application information of the application corresponding to at least one of the at least two target application icons.

[0091] In one possible embodiment, the first input is an input from the user to adjust the icon size of the target folder icon. The electronic device can perform target operations on the application in the atomic folder corresponding to the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size.

[0092] For example, after the user enlarges the target folder icon, the electronic device will prioritize enlarging the icon size of application icons that are used more frequently in the target folder. After the user shrinks the target folder icon, the electronic device will prioritize shrinking the icon size of application icons that are used less frequently in the target folder.

[0093] In this embodiment, the icon size of the target folder icon can be (X*Y). Here, the X coordinate refers to the width of the target folder icon, and the Y coordinate refers to the length of the target folder icon. For example, X*Y can be: 1*2, 2*1, 2*2, 3*2, 3*1, etc.

[0094] In one possible example, the 1 corresponding to the X coordinate above refers to the width of one desktop icon, the 2 corresponding to the X coordinate above refers to the width of two desktop icons, and so on; the 1 corresponding to the Y coordinate above refers to the length of one desktop icon, the 2 corresponding to the Y coordinate above refers to the length of two desktop icons, and so on. Of course, the 1 corresponding to the X coordinate above can also be other units of measurement, and this embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0095] For example, the size of the 1*2 icon can be 70*152, the size of the 2*1 icon can be 152*70, the size of the 2*2 icon can be 152*152, the size of the 3*2 icon can be 234*152, and the size of the 3*1 icon can be 234*70.

[0096] Generally, the initial icon size of the target folder icon can be assumed to be 1.5*1.5, and the icon size of the target application icon can be assumed to be 1*1.

[0097] In the folder icon display method provided in this application embodiment, the electronic device can display a target folder icon, the folder corresponding to the target folder icon includes at least two target application icons, receive a first input for adjusting the icon size of the target folder icon, and update the display of the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size in response to the first input. Since the updated target folder icon displays the application icon information of at least one of the at least two target application icons, or the application information of the application corresponding to at least one of the at least two target application icons, the user can obtain the application information in the folder without opening the folder, thus improving the efficiency of obtaining the application information in the folder.

[0098] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, step 203 above, "the electronic device responds to the first input and updates the display of the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size," may include the following step 203a:

[0099] Step 203a: In response to the first input, the electronic device displays first application icon information on the target folder icon when the adjusted icon size is the first size; wherein, the first application icon information is used to characterize the first target application icon, and the first target application icon is one of at least two target application icons.

[0100] In this embodiment of the application, the first application icon information may be the cover of the first target application icon or the trigger entry of the application corresponding to the first target application icon.

[0101] In this embodiment of the application, the first size can be set by the user or it can be a preset value in the electronic device. For example, the first size can be 1.5*1.5.

[0102] For example, the target folder icon displays the application icon information of one of the at least two target application icons, while the remaining application icon information is hidden.

[0103] For example, as shown in Figure 3(a), the icon of APP1 is displayed in the target folder icon 212, while the icons of the other applications (APP3, APP4) are hidden.

[0104] In this way, by adjusting the size of the target folder icon, only one application icon is displayed on the target folder icon, which improves the flexibility of displaying application icon information.

[0105] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after step 203a above, the method for displaying folder icons provided in this embodiment of the application further includes the following step 203a1:

[0106] Step 203a1: In response to the second input to the target folder icon, the electronic device displays second application icon information on the target folder icon.

[0107] In this embodiment of the application, the second application icon information is used to characterize the second target application icon.

[0108] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned second application icon information may be the cover of the aforementioned second target application icon, or it may be the trigger entry point of the application corresponding to the aforementioned second target application icon.

[0109] In this embodiment of the application, the second target application icon is a target application icon other than the first target application icon among the at least two target application icons.

[0110] In this embodiment of the application, the second input is used to trigger the electronic device to switch the display of application icon information.

[0111] In this embodiment of the application, the second input can be a user's sliding input of the target folder icon information, or other feasible inputs.

[0112] In this embodiment of the application, the electronic device can receive left and right swipes from the user on the target folder icon to switch the display of hidden application icon information (i.e., the second application icon information mentioned above).

[0113] Thus, by receiving swipe input of the target folder icon, the display of application icon information on the target folder icon can be switched, further improving the flexibility of displaying application icon information.

[0114] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, step 203 above, "the electronic device responds to the first input and updates the display of the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size," may include step 203b:

[0115] Step 203b: In response to the first input, the electronic device displays application icon information corresponding to at least two target application icons on the target folder icon, provided that the adjusted icon size is the second size.

[0116] In this embodiment, the second dimension is larger than the first dimension.

[0117] In this embodiment, the second dimension can be set by the user or a preset value in the electronic device; for example, the second dimension can be 1.5*2.5.

[0118] In this embodiment of the application, the application icon information corresponding to the above-mentioned at least two target application icons can be application icons or thumbnails of application icons.

[0119] For example, after the user enlarges the target folder icon, the electronic device will add application icon information to the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size.

[0120] Example 2, as shown in Figure 3(a), a target folder icon 212 (1.5*1.5) is displayed on the desktop 21. If the user slides the target folder icon 212 to the lower right corner using the extended style 213, as shown in Figure 3(b), the resized target folder icon 214 will have a size of 1.5*2.5. Therefore, at least two application icons (such as APP1 and APP3) can be displayed in the resized target folder icon 214. Alternatively, as shown in Figure 3(c), thumbnails of all application icons (such as APP1, APP3, and APP4) can be displayed in the resized target folder icon 214.

[0121] In this way, by increasing the size of the target folder icon, multiple application icon information can be displayed on the target folder icon, thus enriching the ways in which application icon information is displayed.

[0122] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after step 203b above, the method for displaying folder icons provided in this embodiment of the application further includes the following step 203b1:

[0123] Step 203b1: In response to a third input to the third target application icon information displayed on the target folder icon, the electronic device displays the application interface of the third application indicated by the third target application icon information.

[0124] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned third application icon information is used to characterize the third target application icon.

[0125] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned third application icon information may be the cover of the aforementioned third target application icon, or it may be the trigger entry point of the application corresponding to the aforementioned third target application icon.

[0126] In this embodiment of the application, the third target application icon is one of the at least two target application icons.

[0127] In this embodiment of the application, the third input is used to trigger the electronic device to launch the application.

[0128] In this embodiment of the application, the third input may be a click on the target application icon information, or other feasible inputs.

[0129] For example, the electronic device can perform the target operation on the application corresponding to the target application icon information, making it easier for the user to manage the application. For instance, the user can directly click the APP3 icon displayed on the target folder icon to run APP3 directly.

[0130] For example, when the size of the atomic folder is greater than 1*1, the icon thumbnails of each application are directly displayed in the atomic folder. Clicking on the icon thumbnail will directly open the corresponding application.

[0131] In one possible embodiment, the electronic device can receive a specific gesture performed by the user on the target folder icon, triggering the electronic device to directly open the target folder icon. At this time, the user can view all application icons included in the target folder. For example, by receiving the user's input of double-clicking the target folder icon, the atomic folder can be opened to view all applications contained in the atomic folder.

[0132] In this way, by inputting the application icon information displayed on the target folder icon, the application corresponding to that application icon information can be opened directly, improving the efficiency of launching applications.

[0133] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, step 203 above, "the electronic device responds to the first input and updates the display of the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size," may include step 203c:

[0134] Step 203c: In response to the first input, the electronic device displays application information of at least two target application icons on the target folder icon, provided that the adjusted icon size is the third size.

[0135] In this embodiment of the application, the third dimension can be set by the user or it can be a preset value in the electronic device. For example, the third dimension can be 2.5*2.5.

[0136] In the embodiments of this application, the above application information can be an atomic application icon.

[0137] For example, the atomic application icon includes: the target application icon and the application content of the application corresponding to the target application icon.

[0138] For example, when the application corresponding to the target application icon is a weather application, the application content can be real-time weather information.

[0139] For example, when the application corresponding to the target application icon is a music application, the application content can be a song playback control.

[0140] For example, when the application corresponding to the target application icon is a video application, the application content can be information about the preview of popular TV dramas.

[0141] For example, when the application corresponding to the target application icon is a map application, the application content can be real-time navigation information.

[0142] Example 3, such as Figure 4 As shown, if the target folder icon 215, after resizing, has a size of 2.5*2.5, then two application icons (such as APP1 and APP3) will be displayed in the target folder icon 215, where the icon size of APP1 and APP3 is 1*2. Since the icon size of APP1 and APP3 is 1*2, the electronic device can display the icon information of APP1 and APP3 to the left of the icons of APP1 and APP3 respectively, and display the application content of APP1 and APP3 (i.e., message 1 and message 2) to the right of the icons of APP1 and APP3 respectively.

[0143] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after step 203c above, the method for displaying folder icons provided in this embodiment of the application may include the following steps 203c1 and 203c2:

[0144] Step 203c1: The electronic device receives the tenth input for the target folder icon.

[0145] In this embodiment, the tenth input is used to trigger the electronic device to cancel the display of application information.

[0146] In this embodiment of the application, the tenth input can be a user's swipe input of the target folder icon, or other feasible inputs.

[0147] Step 203c2: In response to the tenth input, if the icon size of the target folder icon is smaller than the third size, the electronic device cancels the display of application information corresponding to at least two target application icons on the target folder icon.

[0148] Example 4, combined Figure 4 The electronic device can receive input from the user to reduce the size of the target folder icon 215. If the size of the target folder icon 215 after adjustment is 1.5*1.5, then the icon size of APP1 and APP3 will be reduced to 1*1, and the application content corresponding to APP1 and APP3 will be canceled.

[0149] In this way, when the target folder icon size is greater than or equal to the preset size, the electronic device directly displays the application content in a simplified manner within the application icon; when the target folder icon size is smaller than the preset size, the application content is not displayed, thereby increasing the richness of the application icon display content in the target folder icon.

[0150] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, step 203 above, "the electronic device responds to the first input and updates the display of the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size," may include step 203d:

[0151] Step 203d: In response to the first input, the electronic device removes the target application icon when the adjusted icon size is the fourth size.

[0152] In this embodiment, the fourth dimension is smaller than the first dimension.

[0153] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned removal of the target application icon can be the removal of the folder corresponding to the target folder icon.

[0154] In this embodiment of the application, after the folder is removed, the applications in the folder are automatically removed from the folder and displayed on the desktop of the electronic device.

[0155] Example 5, referring to Figure 3(a), if a user wants to remove the target folder icon 212, the user can slide the extended style 213 of the target folder icon 212 to the upper left corner until the icon size of the target folder icon 212 is less than 1*1. The electronic device will then automatically remove the target folder icon 212 and display the application icons (such as APP1, APP3, APP4) in the target folder icon 212 on the desktop 21. Therefore, the electronic device can easily remove the folder by shrinking the target folder icon.

[0156] In this way, by inputting the target folder icon to adjust its size, if the icon size is smaller than the preset size, the target folder icon will be automatically removed, without requiring the user to remove the application icons in the target folder one by one to remove the atomic folder, thus improving the efficiency of removing atomic folders.

[0157] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, step 203 above, "the electronic device responds to the first input and updates the display of the target folder icon according to the adjusted icon size," may include step 203e:

[0158] Step 203e: The electronic device responds to the first input and displays aggregated information with the adjusted icon size being the fifth size.

[0159] In this embodiment of the application, the above-mentioned aggregation information is determined based on the application information of the applications corresponding to the at least two target application icons.

[0160] In this embodiment of the application, the fifth dimension is greater than or equal to the second dimension.

[0161] In this embodiment of the application, when the icon size of the target folder icon is greater than or equal to the second size, the electronic device aggregates the information of the applications in the atomic folder corresponding to the target folder icon to obtain the aggregated information of these applications.

[0162] For example, when the target folder icon is a video folder icon, the aggregated information can be the most recent video viewing record.

[0163] For example, when the target folder icon is a financial management folder icon, the aggregated information can be the income and expenditure records of the previous month.

[0164] In this embodiment of the application, when the icon size of the target folder icon is the fifth size, the electronic device can display the application information of the most frequently used applications in the target folder icon in the form of a list.

[0165] Example 6, combined with Example 2, as shown in Figure 5(a), shows a control 216 in the upper right corner of the target folder icon 214 after the aggregated information is generated. At this time, if the user needs to view the application information of the application in the target folder icon 214, they can slide to the upper right corner of the target folder icon 214. As shown in Figure 5(b), an application information list 217 (i.e., aggregated information) is displayed on the desktop 21. The application information list 217 includes the application information of the application in the target folder icon 214 (such as APP1, APP3, APP4). Therefore, the electronic device can aggregate the application information of multiple applications through the target folder icon 214 and can conveniently view the application information of each application.

[0166] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after step 203e above, the method for displaying folder icons provided in this embodiment of the application further includes the following steps 203e1 and 203e2:

[0167] Step 203e1: The electronic device receives a fourth input to the aggregated information.

[0168] In this embodiment of the application, the fourth input is used to trigger the electronic device to launch the application.

[0169] In this embodiment of the application, the fourth input can be a user's click input on the aggregated information, or other feasible inputs.

[0170] Step 203e2: The electronic device responds to the fourth input and displays the application interface of the fifth application indicated by the fifth application icon information.

[0171] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned fifth application icon information is used to characterize the fifth target application icon.

[0172] In this embodiment of the application, the aforementioned fifth application icon information may be the cover of the aforementioned fifth target application icon, or it may be the trigger entry point of the application corresponding to the aforementioned fifth target application icon.

[0173] In this embodiment of the application, the fifth target application icon is one of the at least two target application icons.

[0174] In this embodiment of the application, the electronic device can receive input from the user clicking on a certain application information in the aggregated information and directly enter the interface of the application to which the application information belongs.

[0175] For example, when the application information is a viewing history of a video application, the user can directly enter the application by clicking on the application information and continue watching from the previous viewing progress.

[0176] In this way, by adjusting the size of the target folder icon to a preset size, the electronic device can display the application information of the application in the target folder icon, and after receiving the user's input to view the application information, display the application interface of the application, thereby further improving the efficiency of the user in viewing the application content.

[0177] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after step 203 above, the method for displaying folder icons provided in this embodiment of the application further includes the following steps 301 and 302:

[0178] Step 301: The electronic device receives the fifth input for the target folder icon.

[0179] In this embodiment of the application, the fifth input is used to trigger the electronic device to display the application login interface.

[0180] In this embodiment of the application, the fifth input can be a sliding input of the target folder icon, or other feasible inputs.

[0181] Step 302: The electronic device responds to the fifth input and displays the application login interface.

[0182] In this embodiment of the application, the application login interface is used to log in to the applications corresponding to the at least two target application icons.

[0183] For example, the above application login interface includes M login identifiers, where M is a positive integer.

[0184] For example, one of the M login identifiers mentioned above indicates a login method.

[0185] For example, the login method mentioned above includes at least one of the following: a first login method and a second login method. The first login method is: one-click login via application authorization, and the second login method is: login via a unified account and password login interface.

[0186] For example, most applications currently have login functionality, and most can be authorized for one-click login through certain special applications (e.g., applications with more secure accounts and passwords). In other words, each of the M login identifiers mentioned above corresponds to one application, meaning that each first login method can use its corresponding application's account for one-click login.

[0187] For example, the unified account and password login interface mentioned above includes at least one login option, and each login option corresponds to an account and password.

[0188] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after step 302 above, the method for displaying folder icons provided in this embodiment of the application further includes the following steps 303 and 304:

[0189] Step 303: The electronic device receives a sixth input for entering the target login identifier.

[0190] In this embodiment of the application, the target login identifier can be any one of the M login identifiers.

[0191] In this embodiment of the application, the sixth input is used to trigger the electronic device to log in to the application.

[0192] In this embodiment of the application, the sixth input can be a user's touch input of the target login identifier, or other feasible inputs.

[0193] Step 304: The electronic device responds to the sixth input by accessing the application corresponding to the target application icon in the login folder based on the target login identifier.

[0194] For example, the login method indicated by the aforementioned target login identifier can be either a first login method or a second login method.

[0195] For example, taking the above login method as the first login method, as shown in Figure 6(a), when a user wants to log in to multiple applications in the atomic folder corresponding to the target folder icon with one click, the user can swipe to the upper left of the target folder icon 214. Then, as shown in Figure 6(b), the electronic device displays the application login interface 218. The user can select any login method displayed in the application login interface 218. After authorization, the electronic device can use that login method to log in to the applications in the atomic folder that support that login method with one click. In this way, the user's repeated operation of authorizing login in multiple applications is reduced.

[0196] For example, after displaying the login interface corresponding to the second login method, the electronic device can add multiple usernames and passwords to this interface. After the user enters the username and password, if the user logs in with that username, the electronic device will check whether the application in the atomic folder correctly matches the username and password. If the match is correct, the user can log in to that application. For an already logged-in username and password, logging out will revoke the authorization of that username and password, and the corresponding logged-in application will be logged out.

[0197] For example, taking the above login method as the second login method, as shown in Figure 6(b), if the user clicks on account and password login, then as shown in Figure 6(c), the account and password login interface 219 is displayed on the desktop 21. The user can enter multiple account and password in the account and password login interface 219 to log in. In this way, the electronic device can authorize multiple applications to log in at one time.

[0198] In addition, if a user needs to log out of a certain account and password, the user can click the logout button in the account and password login interface 219 to cancel the login of that account and password.

[0199] Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, the application login interface includes prompt information, which is used to indicate whether the login method indicated by the M login identifiers is authorized to be used.

[0200] For example, the above prompt information includes M authorization identifiers, each corresponding to a login identifier. The authorization identifier associated with any of the M login identifiers is used to indicate whether the login method corresponding to that login identifier is authorized. Specifically, the login identifier corresponding to an authorized login method will be marked "Authorized," and the login identifier corresponding to an unauthorized login method will be marked "Unauthorized." For example, referring to Figure 6(b), the first login method in the application login interface 218 is marked "Authorized," while the second and third login methods in the application login interface 218 are marked "Unauthorized."

[0201] It should be noted that when an application is added to the aforementioned atomic folder, the electronic device will automatically detect the authorization methods supported by the application. If the authorization methods supported by the application include those already authorized in the atomic folder, the application will be automatically authorized to log in.

[0202] In this way, by having the user authorize or revoke the login of an atomic folder, the applications within that atomic folder are also authorized or revoked simultaneously after the atomic folder is authorized or revoked, without requiring the user to open each application individually to log in or out. This simplifies the process of authorizing or revoking login for multiple applications and improves operational efficiency.

[0203] The folder icon display method provided in this application can be executed by a folder icon display device. This application uses a folder icon display device executing the folder icon display method as an example to illustrate the folder icon display device provided in this application.
