[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] The terms “first”, “second”, and the like in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be exchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by “first”, “second”, and the like are generally of a kind and are not limited in number, for example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, “and / or” in the specification and claims means at least one of the connected objects, and the character “ / ” generally represents an “or” relationship between the objects before and after it.

[0031] The remote control method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0032] AsFigure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a remote control method, which comprises steps 101-102.

[0033] Step 101, in the case where the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish a remote control connection, display a first interface in a first display area of the first electronic device screen and display a second interface in a second display area of the first electronic device screen.

[0034] In the embodiment, the first electronic device can be a mobile phone, a computer, a television, a bracelet, a smart refrigerator, a printer, etc. Those skilled in the art should understand that the first electronic device can be any electronic device that can realize remote control, and the type of the first electronic device is not limited here.

[0035] In the case where the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish a remote control connection, the first electronic device enters a remote control state, and the first display area of the screen of the first electronic device displays a first interface. The second display area of the screen of the first electronic device displays a second interface. The first interface is an interface displayed when the first user performs a local operation on the first electronic device. For example, in the case where the first user does not perform any operation on the first electronic device, the first interface can be a home interface of the first electronic device, and the home interface contains applications that can be locally operated by the first user. For another example, in the case where the first user performs an operation on an application on the first electronic device, the first interface is a use interface of the application.

[0036] The second interface is an interface displayed when the second user performs a remote control operation on the first electronic device through the second electronic device. That is, in the case where the second user performs a remote control operation on the first electronic device, the screen interface of the second electronic device and the second interface of the first electronic device can simultaneously display the result of the remote control operation. For example, in the case where the second interface contains one or more applications, the one or more applications will also be displayed on the screen interface of the second electronic device. In the case where the second user performs a remote control operation on the one or more applications, the result of the remote control operation will be displayed on the screen interface of the second electronic device and the second interface of the first electronic device.

[0037] It should be noted that the first user can perform any operation on the first electronic device, and the result of the local operation of the first user is displayed through the first display area.

[0038] According to the embodiment of the present application, the first interface is displayed in the first display area of the first electronic device screen and the second interface is displayed in the second display area of the first electronic device screen in the case that the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish the remote control connection, so that the local operation of the first user and the remote control operation of the second user do not affect each other in the case that the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish the remote control connection.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 2 Before the first interface is displayed in the first display area of the first electronic device screen and the second interface is displayed in the second display area of the first electronic device screen in the case that the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish the remote control connection, the following steps 101.1-101.3 are further included.

[0040] Step 101.1, receiving the remote control request sent by the second electronic device.

[0041] In the embodiment, when the second electronic device needs to remotely control the first electronic device, the second electronic device sends a remote control request to the first electronic device, and the first electronic device receives the remote control request sent by the second electronic device.

[0042] Optionally, the case that the second electronic device needs to remotely control the first electronic device can be that the first user communicates with the after-sales customer service of the first electronic device when the first electronic device encounters a problem, and the after-sales end needs to remotely diagnose the first electronic device. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the case that the second electronic device needs to remotely control the first electronic device is not limited to the above case, but can also be other cases, which are not limited here.

[0043] Step 101.2, receiving the fourth input of the first user for the remote control request.

[0044] It can be understood that the fourth input can be an input of the first user agreeing to the remote control.

[0045] Step 101.3, in response to the fourth input, the first interface is displayed in the first display area of the first electronic device screen and the second interface is displayed in the second display area of the first electronic device screen in the case that the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish the remote control connection.

[0046] In the embodiment, the fourth input of the first user for the remote control request can be an agreement of the remote control request of the second electronic device, and the first electronic device automatically displays the first display area and the second display area after receiving the fourth input of the user. For example, refer to Figure 3As shown, the first electronic device displays the first display area and the second display area in split screen form.

[0047] In another embodiment of the present application, the fourth input can also be an input by the first user to set the use permission of the second electronic device to the application in the first electronic device. After receiving the fourth input of the user, the first electronic device sets the use permission of the second electronic device to the application in the first electronic device, and then displays the first display area and the second display area, and displays the usable applications of the second electronic device in the second interface of the second display area for the second user to select and use.

[0048] For example, after receiving the remote control request, the first user can draw a region on the desktop interface of the first electronic device, and only the applications in the region can be remotely controlled, and the applications outside the region cannot be remotely controlled and can only be operated by the first user. Then, the second display area and the first display area can be displayed in split screen form, and the above-mentioned applications that can be remotely controlled are displayed in the second display area. For example, as shown in the figure, the region contains six applications, namely, clock, weather, application store, settings, music, and transformer, and the second electronic device can remotely control the operation of these applications. Moreover, the interface of the remote control operation of the second electronic device is displayed through the second display area. Figure 4

[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, the applicant finds that there is a possibility that the local operation of the first user on the first electronic device and the remote control operation of the second user on the first electronic device will conflict. Therefore, the embodiments of the present application also provide a conflict control method, that is, after step 101, step 102 is further included:

[0050] Step 102, in the case where it is detected that the remote control operation of the second user and the local operation of the first user conflict, performing a target operation.

[0051] In the present embodiment, the conflict can be that the remote control operation of the second user and the local operation of the first user are for the same application. The conflict can also be that one of them needs to upgrade the system, restore to factory settings, or shut down, thereby affecting the operation of the other party. The conflict can also be that both parties input different texts through the same application. The conflict can also be any operation that affects the other party when one party operates. Those skilled in the art should understand that the specific types of conflicts are not limited here.

[0052] ​The target operation can be executed based on the input of the first user. When it is detected that the remote control operation of the second user conflicts with the local operation of the first user, if the input of the first user is to allow the execution of the local operation of the first user, the target operation is used to prohibit the execution of the remote control operation of the second user. When it is detected that the remote control operation of the second user conflicts with the local operation of the first user, if the input of the first user is to allow the execution of the remote control operation of the second user, the target operation is used to prohibit the execution of the local operation of the first user.

[0053] According to the embodiment of the present application, when the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish a remote control connection, the first interface is displayed on the first display area of the screen of the first electronic device, and the second interface is displayed on the second display area of the screen of the first electronic device, so that the local operation of the first user and the remote control operation of the second user can be realized without affecting each other when the first electronic device and the second electronic device establish a remote control connection. When it is detected that the remote control operation of the second user conflicts with the local operation of the first user, a target operation is executed. Therefore, the conflict control when the remote control operation and the local operation conflict can be realized, the problem of mutual interference caused by the conflict can be solved, and the experience of the user can be further improved by setting the target operation by the first user.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present application, before step 102, steps 201 and 202 are further included.

[0055] Step 201: receiving a third input of the first user.

[0056] Step 202: setting a control authority of the second electronic device in response to the third input. The control authority includes at least one of the following: a use authority of the second electronic device in the first electronic device; a control duration of the second electronic device to the first electronic device.

[0057] In the embodiment, the third input can be a use authority of the first user to an application of the second electronic device. The third input can also be an input of the first user to the control duration of the first electronic device by the second electronic device, and the third input can also be an input of the control duration of the authorized application of the remote control. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the type of information of the third input is not limited here.

[0058] The third input can be a click on a preset control of an application, and can also be an input through a prompt box popped up by clicking on the application. The specific input mode of the third input is not limited here.

[0059] According to the information input by the third input, the control authority of the second electronic device is set. In the case that the control authority is the use authority of the application in the first electronic device by the second electronic device, after the use authority of the application in the first electronic device by the second electronic device is set, the second electronic device can operate the application with the use authority and cannot operate the application without the use authority.

[0060] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the use authority of the second electronic device in the first electronic device is not limited to the application in the first electronic device, but also can be a document in the first electronic device, and can be a certain function in the first electronic device. Here, the type of the specific use authority is not limited.

[0061] In the case that the control authority is the control duration of the first electronic device by the second electronic device, the first user can set the control duration for the remote control of the second electronic device, and the second electronic device can remotely control the first electronic device within the control duration. When the control duration is exceeded, the first electronic device ends the remote control of the first electronic device by the second electronic device, and the first electronic device ends the remote control operation state, i.e., the state as shown in FIG. 8. Figure 5

[0062] In the case that the control authority is the use authority of the application in the first electronic device by the second electronic device and the control duration, that is, the control duration can be set for each authorized application. Moreover, different control durations can be set for different authorized applications. The control duration of the authorized application can be displayed through the interface as shown in FIG. 9. Figure 6 Figure 6 The interface as shown in FIG. 9 is the interface of the "Settings" application icon in the lower right corner of the "Settings" application icon, and the icon of the hourglass represents the control duration. Within the control duration of the authorized application, the second electronic device can remotely control the operation of the authorized application. When the control duration of the authorized application is exceeded, the second electronic device cannot remotely control the operation of the authorized application. In addition, the control duration of the authorized application can also be adjusted in real time according to the needs of the local operation of the first user to use the first electronic device locally.

[0063] According to the embodiments of the present application, by setting the use authority of the application in the first electronic device by the second electronic device, the security of the remote control can be improved without affecting the remote control function of the second electronic device. After the use authority is set by the first user, the first user can also use the first electronic device while maintaining the remote control state, thereby improving the user experience. By setting the control duration for the remote control of the second electronic device, the local use of the first user can be avoided due to the long time of the first electronic device in the remote control state. By setting the control duration for the remote control of the authorized application, the local use of the first user for the authorized application can also be avoided, thereby improving the user experience.

[0064] ​​After the control permission of the second electronic device is set, step 102 is performed. The specific process of performing step 102 is described in detail below by taking two conflict scenarios as examples.

[0065] Example conflict scenario 1: the conflict is a use conflict for the first application.

[0066] Example conflict scenario 2: the remote control operation of the second user is to execute a preset control command, and the preset control command conflicts with the local operation of the first user.

[0067] For the above example conflict scenario 1, when it is detected that the remote control operation of the second user conflicts with the local operation of the first user, performing a target operation includes:

[0068] Step 301: When it is detected that the conflict is a use conflict for the first application, receiving a first input of the first user.

[0069] Step 302: In response to the first input, when the first input is used to indicate that the target user is allowed to use the first application, performing a target operation, wherein the target user is the first user or the second user, and the target operation includes at least one of the following: prohibiting the use of the first application by users other than the target user; closing the use interface of the first application in the target display area; switching the use interface of the first application in the target display area to the use interface of the second application, the first application and the second application being matched; and when the target user is the first user, the target display area is the second display area, and when the target user is the second user, the target display area is the first display area.

[0070] In this embodiment, the first application in step 301 can be an application for which the second electronic device has a use permission. The first application can be remotely controlled by the second user and locally operated by the first user, and the first application should be located in the second display area.

[0071] In the step 301, in the case that the conflict is a use conflict of the first application, the receiving of the first input of the first user can be specifically: in the case that the conflict is a use conflict of the first application, displaying a setting interface in the first display area, the setting interface can display the first application for which the local operation and the remote control operation exist in conflict. The first user can perform the first input through the setting interface. The first input can include a target user allowed to perform. The target user can be the first user or the second user. The first electronic device can perform a target operation based on the first input of the first user. The target operation can be to prohibit the use of the first application by users other than the target user, or the target operation can be to close the use interface of the first application in the target display area, or the target operation can be to switch the use interface of the first application in the target display area to the use interface of a second application, so that users other than the target user can operate the second application matched with the first application. The second application can be matched with the first application in that the use interface of the second application and the use interface of the first application can perform the same function, for example, “application A” and “camera” can both realize the function of taking pictures, so application A and camera are matched. The second application can also be matched with the first application in that the second application and the first application belong to the same type of application. For example, “application 1” and “application 2” are both shopping APPs. Here, the specific type of matching is not limited.

[0072] In one example, in the case that the conflict is a use conflict of the first application, the receiving of the first input of the first user, in the case that the first input of the first user indicates that the first user is allowed to use the first application, performing a target operation. The target operation can be to prohibit the use of the first application by users other than the first user, that is, to prohibit the use of the first application by the second user. The way to prohibit the use of the first application by the second user can be to set the second electronic device to have no use permission of the first application. Further, if a conflict occurs, the second display area already displays the use interface of the first application, that is, the second user has opened the use of the first application, and the target operation further includes closing the use interface of the first application in the second display area. Still further, in order not to affect the remote control operation of the second user, the target operation further includes switching the use interface of the first application in the second display area to the use interface of a second application matched with the first application. The second user can realize the same function of operating the first application by remotely controlling the second application in the second display area. For example, when the user uses the first application “application C” to watch short videos, the current interface can be switched to “application D”, which can also watch short videos, so that the second user can realize the same function of watching short videos.

[0073] In another example, in a case where it is detected that the conflict is a use conflict for the first application, a first input of the first user is received, and in a case where the first input of the first user indicates that the second user is allowed to use the first application, a target operation is performed. The target operation can be to prohibit use of the first application by users other than the second user, that is, to prohibit use of the first application by the first user. The manner of prohibiting use of the first application by the first user can be that the first electronic device does not perform a local operation of the first application by the first user. Further, the target operation can further include closing a use interface of the first application in the first display region in a case where the first user has opened the use interface of the first application when the conflict occurs. Further, in order not to affect the local operation of the first user, the target operation can further include switching the use interface of the first application in the first display region to a use interface of a second application. The first user can achieve the same function as operating the first application by locally operating the second application.

[0074] According to the embodiments of the present application, by prohibiting use of the first application by users other than the target user, the problem of mutual interference caused by the conflict can be solved, and the use of the first application by the target user can be ensured. By closing the use interface of the first application in the target display region and switching the use interface of the first application in the target display region to a use interface of a second application, the first application and the second application are matched, and the user experience can be improved. In a case where a conflict occurs, by receiving a first input of the first user and performing a target operation according to the first input, the user experience can be further improved.

[0075] In one embodiment, the first application and the second application are matched, which includes that an interface of the second application and an interface of the first application can perform the same function. Alternatively, the second application and the first application are of the same type.

[0076] The interface of the second application and the interface of the first application can perform the same function, which can be that the first application and the second application are of the same type, or the first application and the second application are of different types but can perform the same function within the application. For example, in a case where the first application is “XX travel” and the second application is “XX map”, although the first application is a car-hailing application and the second application is a map application, since the first application and the second application can both achieve the function of “online car-hailing”, the interface of the second application and the interface of the first application can perform the same function.

[0077] According to the embodiment of the present application, in the case that the conflict is detected as a use conflict for the first application, the second application can be found for the user to use by the fact that the interface of the second application can perform the same function as the interface of the first application or the type of the second application is the same as that of the first application, so as to improve the user experience.

[0078] For the above example conflict scenario 2, in the case that the remote control operation of the second user conflicts with the local operation of the first user, performing a target operation includes:

[0079] Step 401, in the case that the remote control operation of the second user is to execute a preset control command, and the preset control command conflicts with the local operation of the first user, receiving a second input of the first user.

[0080] Step 402, in response to the second input, in the case that the second input is used to indicate that the second user is allowed to execute the preset control command, performing a target operation, wherein the target operation includes at least one of the following: disabling the use of the first electronic device by the first user; saving the content of the first interface and closing the first interface in the first display area; wherein the preset control command includes any one of the following: updating the first electronic device, restoring the first electronic device to factory settings, and shutting down the first electronic device.

[0081] In the embodiment, the preset control command can be any one of updating the first electronic device, restoring the first electronic device to factory settings, and shutting down the first electronic device. Since the execution object of the preset control command can contain all applications of the first electronic device, in the case of executing the preset control command, the local operation of the first user will be affected, so that the conflict between the remote control operation of the second user and the local operation of the first user occurs. In the case that the conflict exists, a setting interface is displayed. The first user can make a second input through the setting interface to set the time when the preset control command is allowed to be executed. The first electronic device can receive the second input of the first user and perform a target operation in response to the second input. Wherein the second input can be to allow the second user to execute the preset control command, and the second input can also be to allow the second user to execute the preset control command after a preset time.

[0082] In a case where it is detected that the remote control operation of the second user is to execute a preset control command, and the preset control command conflicts with the local operation of the first user, a second input of the first user is received. In a case where the second input is used to indicate that the second user is allowed to execute the preset control command, a target operation is executed. The target operation can be to prohibit the first user from using the first electronic device to make the first electronic device execute the preset control command. The first interface is a non-desktop interface when the conflict occurs. For example, the first user is using a certain function of the first application. The target operation further includes saving the content of the first interface and closing the first interface in the first display area. The saving of the content of the first interface can be performed automatically before the preset control command is executed. Alternatively, the saving of the content of the first interface can be performed based on an instruction of the first user to save the content of the first interface before the preset control command is executed.

[0083] Optionally, the second input can also be used to indicate that the second user is allowed to execute the preset control command after a preset time. In this case, the preset control command can be executed after the preset time. For example, if the first user sets the time for executing the shutdown operation to 30 minutes, the first electronic device will automatically perform the shutdown operation after waiting for 30 minutes.

[0084] According to the embodiments of the present application, by prohibiting the first user from using the first electronic device, the mutual interference caused by the conflict can be solved. By saving the content of the first interface and closing the first interface in the first display area, the integrity of the content of the first electronic device can be ensured, and the influence of the execution of the preset control command on the locally stored content of the first electronic device can be avoided.

[0085] To further ensure the security of the remote control, the remote control method according to an embodiment of the present application further includes:

[0086] Step 501: Receiving a fifth input of the first user to the first display area or the second display area.

[0087] Step 502: Interrupting the remote control operation in response to the fifth input.

[0088] In the embodiment, in the remote control operation of the second user, if the first user has a problem with the remote control operation, or the first user does not allow the second electronic device to perform a certain specific operation, the first user can perform a fifth input through the first display area or the second display area. The fifth input can be an instruction to interrupt the remote control operation, and the first electronic device interrupts the remote control operation in response to the fifth input after receiving the fifth input.

[0089] According to the embodiment of the present application, the first user can interrupt the remote control operation at any time when there is a problem or a security risk, and the security of the remote control can be further improved.

[0090] The remote control method provided by the embodiment of the present application can be executed by the remote control device of the first electronic device. The embodiment of the present application takes the method for the remote control device to execute the remote control as an example to illustrate the remote control device provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0091] As shown in Figure 7 The embodiment of the present application provides a remote control device 600, which comprises a display module 601 and an execution module 602.
