Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of terminal technology, and in particular to a volume adjustment method and a terminal device. Background Art

[0002] With the development of terminal technology, terminal devices are being used more and more widely. When using terminal devices, users often need to adjust the volume of the terminal devices. The current volume adjustment methods mainly include the following three methods: adjusting the volume through the volume button of the terminal device; adjusting the volume by sliding the volume adjustment control displayed on the terminal device interface; calling up the sound setting interface by clicking the setting icon on the display interface of the terminal device, and adjusting the volume in the sound setting interface. In the sound setting interface, the volume of all applications or all types of applications of the terminal device can be adjusted.

[0003] Among the current volume adjustment methods, the method of adjusting the volume by using the volume button and the method of adjusting the volume by sliding the volume adjustment control can only adjust the volume of one application or one type of application of the terminal device (for example, the volume of the currently used application, the volume of the application type to which the currently used application belongs, the volume of a default application or a default type of application), but cannot adjust the volume of other applications or other types of applications of the terminal device. If the user wants to adjust the volume of other applications or other types of applications of the terminal device, the user needs to call up the sound setting interface of the terminal device by clicking the setting icon and other steps, and adjust the volume of other applications or other types of applications in the sound setting interface.

[0004] Therefore, based on the current volume adjustment method, when the volume of multiple applications or multiple types of applications of a terminal device needs to be adjusted, the user's operation is cumbersome, unfriendly to users, and the user experience is poor. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present application provides a volume adjustment method and a terminal device. A user can trigger a volume adjustment window through simple operations. The volume adjustment window can be used to adjust the volume of multiple different applications or the volume of multiple different types of applications. When the volume adjustment method is used to adjust the volume of multiple different applications or the volume of multiple different types of applications, the operation is simple and the user experience is improved.

[0006] In a first aspect, a volume adjustment method is provided, which is applied to a terminal device with a display screen, and the method includes: receiving a first operation of a user; in response to the first operation, displaying a volume interaction control on the display screen, the volume interaction control being used to prompt the user to adjust the volume; receiving a second operation of the user on the volume interaction control; in response to the second operation, displaying a first window on the display screen, wherein a plurality of volume adjustment controls are displayed in the first window, each volume adjustment control corresponds to a type of volume of the terminal device, the type of volume includes a volume corresponding to an application of the terminal device or applications belonging to the same type, and an area occupied by the first window is smaller than an area of ​​the interface where the first window is located; receiving a third operation of the user on one or more volume adjustment controls among the plurality of volume adjustment controls; in response to the third operation, adjusting the volume corresponding to the one or more volume adjustment controls.

[0007] The volume adjustment method provided in the first aspect can display a first window including multiple volume adjustment controls on the display screen through simple operations by the user, and each volume adjustment control corresponds to a type of volume of the terminal device (for example, a type of volume can be the volume of an application of the terminal device or the volume of a type of application, and a type of application can correspond to multiple applications). In the first window, the user can adjust the volume corresponding to any one or more volume adjustment controls. And the area occupied by the first window (i.e., the volume adjustment window) is smaller than the area of ​​the interface where it is located, that is, the first window only covers part of the interface features of the interface where it is located, so that the user can continue to view or use the interface that is not covered by the first window while adjusting the volume in the first window. For example, assuming that the user is using the terminal device to play a video, in the process of calling out the first window to adjust the volume, the user can continue to watch the video played by the terminal device through the part of the interface that is not covered by the first window.

[0008] Exemplarily, the terminal device may include: a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a foldable screen mobile phone, a large screen device, a smart TV, a car computer, etc.

[0009] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a prompt control for prompting a user to adjust multiple volumes is displayed in the volume interaction control. In this implementation, by displaying the prompt control in the volume interaction control, the user can be aware that multiple volume adjustments can be performed through further operations on the volume interaction control, thereby increasing the probability of the user performing a second operation and improving the user experience.

[0010] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the volume interactive control displays multiple volume adjustment controls in a non-completely superimposed manner. Among the multiple volume adjustment controls that are not completely superimposed, one volume adjustment control located at the top layer is fully displayed, and other volume adjustment controls are partially displayed; the other partially displayed volume adjustment controls form the prompt control. In this implementation, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a non-completely superimposed manner in the volume adjustment controls. Due to the non-completely superimposed display manner, one volume adjustment control located at the top layer of the multiple volume adjustment controls is fully displayed (i.e., can be fully seen by the user), and other volume adjustment controls located at the bottom layer are partially displayed (i.e., can be partially seen by the user). By partially displaying other volume adjustment controls in this manner, the user is prompted to perform multiple volume adjustments. The method is simple and easy to implement.

[0011] Exemplarily, the multiple volume adjustment controls that are not fully superimposed can be divided into an upper volume adjustment control and other volume adjustment controls, the upper volume adjustment control is located at the top layer, the user can see all features of the upper volume adjustment control, and the other volume adjustment controls are partially blocked by the upper volume adjustment control. If the other volume adjustment control includes multiple volume adjustment controls, the multiple volume bar adjustment controls can be fully superimposed or partially superimposed.

[0012] Exemplarily, the multiple volume adjustment controls that are not completely superimposed on the volume interaction control may also refer to: the upper volume adjustment control and the shadow portion are displayed in the volume interaction control, the outline of the shadow portion is the same as the outline of the upper volume adjustment control, the size of the shadow portion is smaller than the size of the upper volume adjustment control, and the shadow portion is located in the lower layer of the volume adjustment control and is partially blocked by the upper volume adjustment control. That is, the user can fully see the upper volume adjustment control, but can only see a part of the shadow portion. The shadow portion represents the other volume adjustment controls except the upper volume adjustment control among the multiple volume adjustment controls, and the partially displayed shadow portion forms a prompt control for prompting the user that there are other volume adjustment controls below the upper volume adjustment control, thereby prompting the user that multiple volume adjustments can be made through further operations.

[0013] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a plurality of volume icons are displayed in the volume interaction control, each volume icon corresponds to a volume adjustment control, and the area occupied by each volume icon is smaller than the area occupied by its corresponding volume adjustment control; the plurality of volume icons form a prompt control. In this implementation, a plurality of volume icons are displayed in the volume interaction control, and the area occupied by the volume interaction control can be minimized by using volume icons that occupy a smaller area. At the same time, the plurality of volume icons can clearly prompt the user that multiple volume adjustments can be made by further operating the volume interaction control.

[0014] Exemplarily, the volume adjustment control may include a long volume bar, which is divided into a shaded portion and / or a non-shaded portion in the length direction, wherein the larger the area of ​​the shaded portion, the louder the volume of the application corresponding to the volume adjustment control or the corresponding type of application; when the entire volume bar is presented as a shaded portion, it indicates that the application corresponding to the volume adjustment control or the corresponding type of application is at the maximum volume; when the entire volume bar is presented as a non-shaded portion, it indicates that the application corresponding to the volume adjustment control or the corresponding type of application is at the minimum volume, and the minimum volume can be silent or a preset minimum volume value.

[0015] Exemplarily, a volume mark is also displayed in the volume adjustment control, and the volume mark is used to indicate the application or application type corresponding to the volume adjustment control. In this implementation, by setting the volume mark, it is convenient for the user to determine the application or application type corresponding to the volume adjustment control, which is convenient for the user to select and improves the user experience.

[0016] Exemplarily, the second operation may be a sliding operation or a dragging operation on the volume interaction control. For example, if the volume interaction control is displayed near the left edge of the display screen, the second operation may be sliding to the right or dragging to the right. Of course, the operation to the right may include operations to the right, to the upper right, or to the lower right.

[0017] Exemplarily, when the first window is displayed on the display screen, the method further includes: stopping displaying the volume interaction control. In this implementation, stopping displaying the volume interaction control means switching the volume interaction control to the first window after receiving the second operation; this ensures that only the first window covers the interface, so that all areas except the area covered by the first window are visible to the user, thereby improving the user experience.

[0018] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a non-overlapping manner in the first window. In this implementation, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a non-overlapping manner, and this display state can be called an expanded state, which facilitates the user to adjust each volume adjustment control.

[0019] Exemplarily, when the volume adjustment control is displayed in the form of a long volume bar, multiple volume bars are displayed in the first window at intervals. It should be understood that the long volume bar can be displayed vertically or horizontally, and this application does not limit this.

[0020] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a setting icon control is also displayed in the first window, and the method further includes: receiving a fourth operation of the user on the setting icon control; and in response to the fourth operation, displaying a sound setting interface of the terminal device on the display screen. In this implementation, the setting icon is displayed in the first window to facilitate the user to enter the sound setting interface of the terminal device, thereby facilitating the user's use and improving the user experience.

[0021] Exemplarily, the fourth operation may be a click operation on the setting icon control (for example, a single click or a double click), or any other feasible operation mode, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0022] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: when the volume interactive control is displayed on the display screen, if a user presses a volume button, a first volume display control is displayed on the display screen, and the first volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment corresponding to the volume interactive control; if a user slides the volume interactive control, a second volume display control is displayed on the display screen, and the second volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment corresponding to the volume interactive control, and the first volume display control and the second volume display control are different. In this implementation, when the user adjusts a type of volume (or the current volume) corresponding to the volume interactive control of the terminal device, the adjustment can be made by pressing the volume button (i.e., hard key adjustment) or by sliding operation; different volume display controls are displayed in response to the two operation modes, so that the operation is more interactive.

[0023] Exemplarily, the area occupied by the first volume display control and the area occupied by the second volume display control are both smaller than the area occupied by the volume interaction control. In this implementation, the area occupied by the first volume display control and the second volume display control are both smaller than the area occupied by the volume interaction control, and the covered area of ​​the display screen can be reduced during the process of adjusting a type of volume corresponding to the volume interaction control displayed by the control, thereby improving the user experience.

[0024] Exemplarily, "the control displays a type of volume corresponding to the volume interaction control" (or the current volume) can be the volume of the application currently running on the terminal device or the application type to which the currently running application belongs, or it can also be the volume of the default application of the terminal device or the volume of the default type of application.

[0025] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the area occupied by the first volume display control is smaller than the area occupied by the second volume display control. In this implementation, when the user presses the volume button to adjust the volume, the area occupied by the first volume display control displayed is smaller, so the occupancy of the display screen is also smaller; when the user adjusts the volume by sliding operation, the second volume display control with a larger area is displayed, so that the user can find the operation area for sliding operation to adjust the volume more easily.

[0026] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: when the display screen displays the first volume display control, if a user's sliding operation on the first volume display control is detected, a second volume display control is displayed on the display screen. In this implementation, when the user slides the first volume display control, the first volume display control on the display screen is switched to the second volume display control, that is, the volume adjustment can be switched from a method of pressing the volume button to a method of sliding operation, and the operation method is flexible and convenient for users.

[0027] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the first operation may be: a pressing operation on a volume button, a sliding operation on a first edge area of ​​a display screen, or a clicking operation on the first edge area of ​​a display screen. It is understandable that the first edge area refers to a portion of the display screen close to the first edge, for example, a long strip area along the first edge of the display screen.

[0028] Exemplarily, the first edge may be any edge on the display screen.

[0029] For example, the first edge may be the edge closest to the volume button; for a terminal device without a volume button (such as a curved screen mobile phone), the first edge may be the edge on the display screen closest to the virtual volume adjustment button of the terminal device. Through such a setting, the first operation is performed at the edge closest to the volume button, or at the edge closest to the virtual volume adjustment button of the terminal device, and the first operation is bound to the volume, which is convenient for users to use and improves the user experience.

[0030] It is understandable that the size and position of the first edge area can be set and limited as needed.

[0031] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, one or more of the volume interaction control, the first window, the first volume display control, and the second volume display control are displayed on the display screen at a position close to the operation position of the first operation. In this implementation, the control or window related to volume adjustment is displayed on the display screen close to the operation position of the first operation. This enables the displayed control or window to be bound to the function of "volume adjustment", making it easier for users to identify the function of the displayed control or window, thereby improving user experience.

[0032] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, as the background color of the interface changes, the colors of the volume interaction control, the first window, the first volume display control, and the second volume display control change, so that the volume interaction control, the first window, the first volume display control, and the second volume display control have a color difference greater than a preset threshold from the background color of the interface. Such a setting ensures that the volume interaction control, the first window, the first volume display control, and the second volume display control can be clearly displayed on the interface regardless of whether the background color of the interface is dark or light, which is convenient for users to use.

[0033] Exemplarily, when the first operation is pressing the volume button, the operation position of the first operation is the position of the volume button; when the first operation is a sliding operation on the first edge of the display screen, or a click operation on the first edge of the display screen, the operation position of the first operation is the sliding position or the click position, which is not elaborated herein.

[0034] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the first window displays the multiple volume adjustment controls in a superimposed manner, and before the third operation, the method further includes: receiving a fifth operation of the user on the first window; in response to the fifth operation, the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer of the multiple volume adjustment controls displayed in a superimposed manner is switched. In this implementation, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a superimposed manner in the first window. In this case, the first window simultaneously displays some of the volume adjustment controls (for example, the number of some of the volume adjustment controls may be 1, 2, or 3, etc.), and the fifth operation is used to switch the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer. The number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the first window can be reduced by superimposing the display. When necessary, the user can adjust different volumes by switching the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer. The operation method is simple and the user experience is improved.

[0035] Exemplarily, the fifth operation includes: sliding operation on the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer. By sliding operation on the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer, the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer in the first window is switched, which is simple to operate and provides a good user experience.

[0036] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a volume adjustment control is displayed on the top layer in the first window, at least some of the volume adjustment controls in the plurality of volume adjustment controls displayed in the first window correspond to respective identifiers, a first control is displayed on the identifier corresponding to the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer, and after receiving the fifth operation, the position of the first control changes. In this implementation, by displaying the identifier of the volume adjustment control in the first window, and displaying the first control on the identifier corresponding to the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer, when the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer is switched, the position of the first control also changes; by combining the identifier and the first control, it is convenient for the user to switch any volume adjustment control to the top layer for display, the user operation is simple, user-friendly, and the efficiency of switching the volume adjustment control in the first window and the user experience are improved.

[0037] Exemplarily, the first control is different from the logo, and may be different in color, shape, or both color and shape.

[0038] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the fifth operation includes: a click operation on an identifier corresponding to a volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer, a sliding operation on the first control, or a sliding operation on the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer.

[0039] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, before receiving the third operation, the method further includes: receiving a sixth operation of the user on the first window; in response to the sixth operation, the first window is switched to the second window, and the number of volume adjustment controls simultaneously displayed in the first window is different from the number of volume adjustment controls simultaneously displayed in the second window. In this implementation, the user can switch the first window and the second window as needed, which can meet the user's different needs for the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously, thereby improving the user experience.

[0040] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the larger the area occupied by the second window and the first window is, the greater the number of volume adjustment controls displayed therein.

[0041] For example, if the area occupied by the first window is larger than the area occupied by the second window, the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the first window is larger than the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the second window; if the area occupied by the first window is smaller than the area occupied by the second window, the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the first window is smaller than the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the second window. In this implementation, the number of volume adjustment controls in the window is changed as the area occupied by the window changes, so that the window area can be fully utilized. For example, when a user adjusts multiple types of volume while watching a video, the user can select a window with a smaller area, thereby reducing the occlusion of the video interface; when the user does not need to perform multiple types of volume adjustments when just looking at the screen (for example, when the user is on a phone call), the user can select a window with a larger area to improve the efficiency of volume adjustment.

[0042] Exemplarily, the sixth operation may be a drag operation on the edge of the first window, or an expansion or contraction operation of two fingers of the user on the first window. The expansion operation may be a sliding operation of two fingers gradually moving away from each other, and the contraction operation may be a sliding operation of two fingers gradually moving closer to each other; the drag operation may be a drag operation of one edge of the first window in a direction away from another edge, or a drag operation of one edge of the first window in a direction close to another edge. The above method can quickly realize the switching between the first window and the second window, which is convenient for the user to operate and has high operation efficiency.

[0043] For example, the area occupied by the first window is smaller than the area occupied by the second window, and the sixth operation includes: dragging one edge of the first window in a direction away from the other edge, or expanding the first window with two fingers of the user.

[0044] For another example, the area occupied by the first window is larger than the area occupied by the second window, and the sixth operation includes: dragging one edge of the first window toward another edge, or pinching two fingers of the user in the first window.

[0045] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: when the display screen displays the volume interactive control, if a user presses the volume button or a user slides the volume interactive control, a third volume display control is displayed on the display screen, the third volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment corresponding to the volume interactive control, and the area occupied by the third volume display control is smaller than the area occupied by the volume interactive control. In this implementation, when the user presses the volume button or slides the volume interactive control, the third volume display control is displayed, and the interaction scene is simple and easy to develop.

[0046] For example, the volume interaction control may include a long volume bar, which is divided into a shaded portion and / or a non-shaded portion in the length direction. The larger the area of ​​the shaded portion, the larger the volume value of the current volume corresponding to the volume interaction control. If the length direction of the volume bar is the up-down direction, then the sliding operation for adjusting the volume of the volume interaction control may be sliding the finger upward or downward on the volume bar, and the volume may be increased or decreased by the sliding operation; if the length direction of the volume bar is the left-right direction, then the sliding operation for adjusting the volume of the volume interaction control may be sliding the finger left or right on the volume bar, and the volume may be increased or decreased by the sliding operation.

[0047] For another example, the length direction of the volume bar can be left and right. In this case, the sliding operation for the volume interaction control can be sliding the finger to the left or right on the volume bar.

[0048] Exemplarily, the volume adjustment control may also include a long volume bar, which is divided into a shaded portion and / or a non-shaded portion in the length direction. The larger the area of ​​the shaded portion, the larger the volume value corresponding to the volume adjustment control. If the length direction of the volume bar is the up-down direction, then the sliding operation for adjusting the volume of the volume adjustment control may be sliding the finger upward or downward on the volume bar, and the volume may be increased or decreased by the sliding operation; if the length direction of the volume bar is the left-right direction, then the sliding operation for adjusting the volume of the volume adjustment control may be sliding the finger left or right on the volume bar, and the volume may be increased or decreased by the sliding operation.

[0049] It is understandable that the length direction of the volume bar may also be set along other directions, and there is no limitation to this.

[0050] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, before receiving the first operation of the user, the method further includes: in response to a seventh operation of the user, displaying a fourth volume display control on the display screen, the fourth volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment of the terminal device, the first operation is an operation on the fourth volume display control, and an area occupied by the fourth volume display control is smaller than an area occupied by the volume interaction control;

[0051] In the case where the fourth volume display control is displayed on the display screen, if a user presses the volume button or a user slides the fourth volume display control, the display screen keeps displaying the fourth volume display control, and the volume displayed in the fourth volume display control changes. In this implementation, the user's seventh operation is used to identify that the user has a volume adjustment requirement, thereby displaying the fourth volume display control; when the user only needs to adjust one type of volume of the terminal device (which can be considered as a default type of volume), the display screen will keep displaying the fourth volume display control. In this way, when the user only adjusts one type of volume of the terminal device, only the fourth volume display control, which occupies a smaller area than the volume interaction control, is displayed, thereby reducing the coverage of the display screen.

[0052] Exemplarily, the first operation on the fourth volume display control includes: a sliding operation or a clicking operation on the fourth volume display control.

[0053] For example, if the fourth volume display control is displayed in the right edge area of ​​the display screen, the sliding operation on the fourth volume display control includes a sliding operation to the left; if the fourth volume display control is displayed in the left edge area of ​​the display screen, the sliding operation on the fourth volume display control is a sliding operation to the right. Of course, the fourth volume display control can also be displayed in the upper edge area or the lower edge area of ​​the display screen, and the sliding operation on the fourth volume display control is a sliding operation to the opposite side of the edge where the fourth volume display control is located, which will not be described in detail.

[0054] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the first operation is a sliding operation on the edge area of ​​the display screen, or a clicking operation on the edge area of ​​the display screen; the method also includes: in response to the user pressing the volume button, displaying a fifth volume display control on the display screen, the area occupied by the fifth volume display control is smaller than the area occupied by the volume interaction control. In this implementation, if the first operation to call out the volume interaction control is a sliding operation or a clicking operation, when the user presses the volume button, the fifth volume display control with a smaller area is called out. That is, when the user has a volume adjustment demand, if the user performs the first operation (sliding operation or clicking operation), the volume interaction control is displayed, and if the user presses the volume button, the fifth volume display control is displayed; different controls are displayed according to different user operation methods to enhance interactivity and improve user experience.

[0055] In a second aspect, a communication device is provided, which includes units for performing each step of the method in the above first aspect or any possible implementation of the first aspect.

[0056] In a third aspect, a communication device is provided, which includes at least one processor and a memory, the processor and the memory are coupled, the memory stores program instructions, and when the program instructions stored in the memory are executed by the processor, the method in the above first aspect or any possible implementation of the first aspect is executed.

[0057] In a fourth aspect, a communication device is provided, which includes at least one processor and an interface circuit, and the at least one processor is used to execute: the method in the above first aspect or any possible implementation of the first aspect.

[0058] In a fifth aspect, a terminal device is provided, which includes any communication device provided in the second aspect, the third aspect or the fourth aspect.

[0059] Exemplarily, the terminal device may include a smart phone, a tablet computer, etc.

[0060] In a sixth aspect, a computer program product is provided, which includes a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, it is used to execute the method in the first aspect or any possible implementation manner of the first aspect.

[0061] In a seventh aspect, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, in which a computer program is stored. When the computer program is executed, it is used to execute the method in the first aspect or any possible implementation manner of the first aspect.

[0062] In an eighth aspect, a chip is provided, comprising: a processor, configured to call and run a computer program from a memory, so that a terminal device equipped with the chip executes the method in the first aspect or any possible implementation manner of the first aspect.

[0077] With the development of terminal technology, terminal devices are being used more and more widely. When using terminal devices, users often need to adjust the volume of terminal devices. In the current volume adjustment method, if a user wants to adjust the volume of multiple applications or multiple types of applications of a terminal device, he needs to enter the sound setting interface through the setting icon, and then he can do it in the sound setting interface. Such a volume adjustment method makes the user operation more cumbersome, is not user-friendly, and has a poor user experience.

[0078] For example, Figure 1 The figure shows a display interface schematic diagram of a volume adjustment process on a mobile phone in a related art. Figure 1As shown in Figure a, when the volume needs to be adjusted, the user can press the volume button 101 of the mobile phone. After pressing, the display interface is changed from Figure 1 Jump to as shown in Figure a Figure 1 As shown in Figure b. Figure 1 As shown in Figure b, a volume adjustment box 102 is displayed near the right edge of the mobile phone display screen, and a volume adjustment control 103, a volume icon 104 and a setting icon control 105 are displayed in the volume adjustment box 102. Among them: the volume icon 104 indicates the specific type of the currently adjusted volume. Figure 1 As shown in Figure b, in this example, the volume icon 104 corresponds to the volume of the application of the type "music, video, game". The volume adjustment control 103 includes: a volume bar 1031 and a control 1032. The user can adjust the volume by sliding the adjustment control 1032, and the user can also adjust the volume by pressing the volume button 101. When the user slides the adjustment control 1032 or presses the volume button 101, the display interface is changed to Figure 1 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 1 As shown in Figure c. Figure 1 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user adjusts the volume by sliding the adjustment control 1032 or pressing the volume button 101, the user can only adjust the volume of the application or type corresponding to the volume icon 104.

[0079] exist Figure 1 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, the setting icon control 105 is the entrance to the sound setting interface of the mobile phone. Figure 1 When the user clicks the setting icon control 105, the display interface is changed from Figure 1 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 1 As shown in Figure d. Figure 1 The display interface in Figure d is the sound setting interface of the mobile phone, such as Figure 1 As shown in Figure d in the figure, the display interface displays a sound mode adjustment box 107, a do not disturb adjustment box 108 and a global volume box 109. Among them: the sound mode adjustment box 107 displays three sound mode controls: a "ringing" mode control 1071, a "vibration" mode control 1072 and a "silent" mode control 1073. Figure 1 As shown in Figure d in the figure, the mobile phone is in the "ringing" mode in this display interface. The do not disturb adjustment box 108 is used to display whether the mobile phone is in the do not disturb mode, such as Figure 1 As shown in Figure d, the mobile phone is not in the do not disturb mode in this display interface. When the mobile phone is in the "ringing" mode and is not in the do not disturb mode, the volume adjustment control displayed in the global volume box 109 is in an adjustable state.

[0080] like Figure 1 As shown in FIG. d, four volume adjustment items are displayed in the global volume box 109, each volume adjustment item corresponds to the volume of a type of application. The four volume adjustment items are a first volume item 1091, a second volume item 1092, a third volume item 1093, and a fourth volume item 1094. Figure 1 As shown in Figure d, the first volume item 1091 displays a volume icon 10911 and a volume adjustment control 10912, and the volume adjustment control 10912 includes a volume bar 10913 and a control 10914. The name of the corresponding application type "incoming calls, messages and notifications" is also displayed in the first volume item 1091. The user can adjust the volume of the application type "incoming calls, messages and notifications" by sliding the control 10914. Figure 1 As shown in Figure d, the second volume item 1092 corresponds to the volume of the "alarm clock" type of application. The user can adjust the volume of the application corresponding to the "alarm clock" in the mobile phone by sliding the control in the second volume item 1092; the third volume item 1093 corresponds to the volume of the "music, video, game" type of application. The user can adjust the volume of the application corresponding to the "music, video, game" in the mobile phone by sliding the control in the third volume item 1093; the fourth volume item 1094 corresponds to the volume of the application corresponding to the "call". The user can adjust the volume of the mobile phone call by sliding the control in the fourth volume item 1094. It can be understood that one type of application can include one or more applications. As can be seen from the above, the user Figure 1 In the display interface shown in Figure d, the volume of all applications or all types of applications on the mobile phone can be adjusted.

[0081] For example, Figure 2 The figure shows a display interface schematic diagram of a process of adjusting the volume on a mobile phone in a related art. Figure 2 As shown in Figure a of FIG. 1 , when the volume needs to be adjusted, the user clicks the setting icon 201 in the display interface, and the display interface is changed to Figure 2 Jump to as shown in Figure a Figure 2 As shown in Figure b. Figure 2 FIG. 2 shows a setting interface of a mobile phone, in which a search box 202 and 9 setting items are displayed. Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 20b, the name of the seventh setting item from top to bottom is "Sound and Vibration". The "Sound and Vibration" setting item includes a setting item icon 203 and an expansion control 204. When the user clicks the expansion control 204, the display interface is Figure 2 The jump to Figure 2 As shown in Figure c, users can Figure 2 The volume of various types of applications on the mobile phone can be adjusted in the display interface shown in Figure c. Figure 2 The display interface shown in Figure c is the same as Figure 1 The display interface is the same as that shown in Figure d. Figure 2 The contents of Figure c can be referred to in the above Figure 1 The description of Figure d in is not repeated here.

[0082] By the above Figure 1 and Figure 2 An example can be seen in Figure 1 In the display interface shown in Figure b, the user can only adjust the volume of one application or one type of application. When the user needs to adjust the volume of multiple applications or multiple types of applications on the phone, the user needs to click Figure 1 The setting icon control 105 in Figure b, or click Figure 2 The setting icon 201 in the figure a in the figure makes the display interface jump to the Figure 1 Figure or Figure 2 The sound setting interface is shown in Figure c in the figure, and then the volume of multiple applications or multiple types of applications are adjusted in the sound setting interface. Both of these methods of adjusting multiple volumes are cumbersome, unfriendly to users, and have a poor user experience.

[0083] In view of this, the present application provides a volume adjustment method, in which the user can trigger a volume adjustment window through simple operations, and the volume adjustment window can be used to adjust the volume of multiple different applications or the volume of multiple different types of applications, that is, in the same volume adjustment window, the user can adjust the volume of multiple different applications or the volume of multiple different types of applications. In addition, the volume adjustment window (i.e., the first window) covers some features of the interface, so that the user can continue to use the uncovered part of the interface while adjusting multiple volumes. Using the volume adjustment method to adjust multiple volumes is simple to operate and improves the user experience.

[0084] The volume adjustment method provided by the present application will be described in detail below.

[0085] It should be understood that the volume adjustment method provided in the present application can be applied to a terminal device with a display screen. For example, the terminal device may include: a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a folding screen mobile phone, a smart TV, a car machine, etc. The specific form of the terminal device is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. In the following examples, a mobile phone will be used as an example for explanation.

[0086] Figure 3The figure is a schematic diagram of a display interface of a process of adjusting volume on a mobile phone provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 3 As shown in Figure a, the user can press the volume button 301 of the mobile phone. After pressing, the display interface is changed from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure a Figure 3 As shown in Figure b. Figure 3 As shown in Figure b, a volume control 302 is displayed on the right edge of the mobile phone near the display screen. The volume control 302 is a volume control corresponding to multiple different applications or a volume control corresponding to multiple different types of applications, which are displayed in a superimposed manner. Due to the superimposed display, the user can only see the volume control corresponding to the top application or the volume control corresponding to the top type of application. For example, Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in Figure b is displayed on the top layer, and the volume adjustment control 302 corresponds to the volume of the application of the type "media" of the mobile phone.

[0087] Optionally, the superimposed display of multiple volume adjustment controls may be a completely superimposed display, that is, the volume adjustment control at the top layer completely covers all the volume adjustment controls at the lower layers, and the user cannot see the volume adjustment controls at all at the lower layers.

[0088] In a possible implementation, the superimposed display of multiple volume adjustment controls may also be a non-complete superimposed display, that is, the volume adjustment control at the top layer is fully displayed, while the volume adjustment control at the bottom layer is partially blocked (or covered) by the volume adjustment control at the top layer, that is, the volume adjustment control at the bottom layer is partially displayed, such as Figure 3 As shown in Figure b, in this display interface, the volume adjustment control 302 is not fully superimposed, and other volume adjustment controls 303 are displayed on the right side of the volume adjustment control 302 and are partially covered by the volume adjustment control 302.

[0089] For example, Figure 3 As shown in Figure b, the length of the other volume adjustment controls 303 is smaller than the length of the volume adjustment control 302, so that the volume adjustment control 302 and the other volume adjustment controls 303 as a whole occupy a smaller area to reduce the obstruction of other display contents in the display interface.

[0090] Optionally, in a possible implementation, Figure 3 The other volume adjustment controls 303 shown in FIG. b can also be displayed in other ways, and the length of the other volume adjustment controls 303 is equal to the length of the volume adjustment controls 302. Of course, the length of the other volume adjustment controls 303 can also be greater than the length of the volume adjustment controls 302, which will not be described in detail in this application.

[0091] It should be understood that Figure 3 The other volume adjustment control 303 shown in FIG. b may include one or more volume adjustment controls. When the other volume adjustment control 303 includes multiple volume adjustment controls, the other volume adjustment control 303 may also be displayed as multiple volume adjustment controls superimposed. Figure 3 The other volume adjustment controls 303 shown in FIG. b show that the multiple volume adjustment controls are completely superimposed on each other, that is, the user can only see a partial display of the topmost volume adjustment control among the other volume adjustment controls 303 .

[0092] As an optional implementation, multiple volume adjustment controls in the other volume adjustment controls 303 may also be displayed in a non-completely overlapping manner, that is, each volume adjustment control in the other volume adjustment controls 303 is partially displayed.

[0093] Optionally, as an optional implementation, the volume adjustment control 302 is displayed near the volume button 301, such as Figure 3 As shown in FIG. b, the volume adjustment control 302 is displayed on the display screen near the volume button 301. Through such a setting, the user can more intuitively determine that the function of the volume adjustment control is volume adjustment.

[0094] For example, a volume mark 304 is displayed in the volume adjustment control 302, and the volume mark 304 is used to indicate the application or application type corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. b, the volume mark 304 can be represented by an icon. Optionally, the volume mark 304 can also be represented by text. Of course, the volume mark can also be represented by a combination of text and an icon. As long as the volume mark 304 can enable the user to distinguish and identify the application or application type corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302, the present application does not impose any specific restrictions on the specific form and display position of the volume mark 304.

[0095] like Figure 3 As shown in Figure b, the volume adjustment control 302 displays a non-shaded part 3021 and a shaded part 3022, wherein the larger the area of ​​the shaded part 3022 is, the larger the volume of the application or the corresponding type of application corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302 is.

[0096] In such Figure 3 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user slides his finger to the left on the volume adjustment control 302, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3As shown in Figure c. Figure 3 As shown in Figure c, the volume adjustment window 305 is displayed in the display interface. The volume adjustment window 305 is displayed on the top layer of the display interface on the mobile phone display screen and covers a part of the display screen. Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in FIG. b is similar to the volume adjustment window 305, which is also displayed near the volume button 301. The difference is that the area occupied by the volume adjustment window 305 is larger than the area occupied by the volume adjustment control 302. Four volume adjustment controls are displayed in the volume adjustment window 305: a first volume adjustment control 3051, a second volume adjustment control 3052, a third volume adjustment control 3053, and a fourth volume adjustment control 3054. A corresponding volume name is also displayed at the bottom of each volume adjustment control, and the volume name may be the name of the application corresponding to the volume adjustment control or the type of the application type.

[0097] like Figure 3 As shown in Figure c in the figure, the volume name of the first volume adjustment control 3051 is "Media", and the application corresponding to the first volume adjustment control 3051 is a media application, such as a music program, a video program, or a game program. The volume name of the second volume adjustment control 3052 is "Notification", and the application corresponding to the second volume adjustment control 3052 is a program such as a mobile phone call, mobile phone information, or mobile phone notification. The volume name of the third volume adjustment control 3053 is "Alarm Clock", and the application corresponding to the third volume adjustment control 3053 is the alarm clock of the mobile phone. The volume name of the fourth volume adjustment control 3054 is "Call", and the application corresponding to the third volume adjustment control 3053 is a voice call program.

[0098] like Figure 3 The first volume adjustment control 3051, the second volume adjustment control 3052, the third volume adjustment control 3053 and the fourth volume adjustment control 3054 shown in FIG. Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in FIG. b in FIG. 304 has substantially the same shape and function. The user can slide up and down on any volume adjustment control in the volume adjustment window 305 with a finger to change the volume of the application corresponding to the volume adjustment control or the volume of the corresponding type of application.

[0099] Optionally, as a possible implementation, Figure 3 In the display interface shown in FIG. c, a setting icon control 306 is also displayed. Exemplarily, the setting icon control 306 can be displayed in the volume adjustment window 305. Of course, the setting icon control 306 can also be displayed in other positions, and this application does not limit this.

[0100] like Figure 3As shown in Figure c in FIG. 306, when the user clicks the setting icon control 306, the display interface is changed from Figure 3 Jump to Figure 3 As shown in the figure f, due to Figure 3 The display interface shown in Figure f is similar to Figure 1 The display interface is the same as that shown in Figure d. Figure 3 The contents of the f graph in the above text can be referred to. Figure 1 The description of Figure d in is not repeated here.

[0101] Optionally, as a possible implementation method, the mobile phone displays Figure 3 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user presses the volume button 301 with a finger, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure d. Figure 3 As shown in Figure d in the figure, a volume display control 307 is displayed on the right edge of the mobile phone display screen, and a non-shaded part 3071 and a shaded part 3072 are displayed in the volume display control 307. The larger the length of the shaded part 3072, the larger the volume. It should be understood that the volume display control 307 displays the volume corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302. When the user presses the volume button 301 to reduce the volume of the mobile phone, the length of the non-shaded part 3071 increases and the length of the shaded part 3072 decreases; when the user presses the volume button 301 to increase the volume of the mobile phone, the length of the non-shaded part 3071 decreases and the length of the shaded part 3072 increases.

[0102] For example, when the user presses the volume button 301 to adjust the volume, Figure 3 The width of the volume display control 307 shown in FIG. d is smaller than that shown in FIG. Figure 3 For example, the ratio of the width of the volume display control 307 to the width of the volume adjustment control 302 may be 1:4, 1:5, 1:6, 1:7 or 1:8, etc. The volume display control 307 is displayed with a smaller width, which can reduce the coverage of the screen display content and improve the user experience.

[0103] Optionally, as a possible implementation method, the mobile phone displays Figure 3 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user long presses the volume adjustment control 302 or the user slides his finger upward or downward on the volume adjustment control 302, the display interface is changed to Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure e. Figure 3 The display interface shown in Figure e is similar to Figure 3The display interface shown in Figure b is roughly the same as that in Figure 3 In the display interface shown in Figure e, other volume adjustment controls 303 stop displaying, that is, Figure 3 The display interface shown in Figure e in FIG. 1 no longer displays other volume adjustment controls 303. It should be understood that when the user long presses the volume adjustment control 302 or slides up or down on the volume adjustment control 302, it means that the user has chosen to adjust the volume of an application or a type of application corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302. Figure 3 As shown in Figure e, the user's finger slides upward or downward on the volume adjustment control 302 to adjust the volume corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302: when the user's finger slides upward, the area of ​​the shaded part 3022 increases, the area of ​​the non-shaded part 3021 decreases, and the volume increases; when the user's finger slides downward, the area of ​​the shaded part 3022 decreases, the area of ​​the non-shaded part 3021 increases, and the volume decreases.

[0104] Optionally, as a possible implementation method, the mobile phone displays Figure 3 In the case of the display interface shown in Figure a, when the user slides his finger to the left on the right edge of the mobile phone display, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure a Figure 3 As shown in Figure b; or the user double-clicks on the right side of the mobile phone display, the display interface is Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure a Figure 3 As shown in Figure b. Of course, any other possible method can be used to display the interface. Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure a Figure 3 As shown in Figure b, for example, you can slide from the left edge of the mobile phone's display screen to the right, slide downward from the upper edge of the mobile phone's display screen, or slide upward from the lower edge of the mobile phone's display screen, etc. This application does not limit this.

[0105] Optionally, as a possible implementation, display Figure 3 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, if no user operation is detected within a preset time length (for example, 2s or 3s), or the user slides the finger on the volume adjustment control 302 to the right, or the user clicks on an area outside the volume adjustment control 302 in the display interface, the volume adjustment control 302 stops displaying, that is, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure a.

[0106] Optionally, as a possible implementation, in Figure 3In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user slides the finger on the volume adjustment control 302 to the lower left or upper left, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure c; or after the user clicks the volume adjustment control 302 (for example, single click or double click), the display interface is Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure c in the present application embodiment, Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 The switching method shown in Figure c is used as an example. In the event of a conflict with an operation method in the existing technical solution, any other possible operation method can be used and will not be enumerated here.

[0107] Optionally, as a possible implementation, Figure 3 In the display interface shown in FIG. c, if no user operation is detected within a preset time length (e.g., 2s or 3s), or the user clicks on an area outside the volume adjustment window 305 in the display interface, the volume adjustment window 305 stops displaying, that is, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to Figure 3 As shown in Figure a.

[0108] Optionally, as a possible implementation, Figure 3 In the display interface shown in FIG. d, if no user operation is detected within a preset time length (for example, 2s or 3s), or the user clicks an area outside the volume display control 307 in the display interface, the volume display control 307 stops displaying, that is, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure d Figure 3 As shown in Figure a.

[0109] Optionally, as a possible implementation, Figure 3 In the display interface shown in Figure d, if the user long presses the volume display control 307 or the user slides up or down on the volume display control 307, the display interface is changed to Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure d Figure 3 As shown in Figure e.

[0110] Optionally, as a possible implementation, Figure 3 In the display interface shown in Figure e, if no user operation is detected within a preset time length (for example, 2s or 3s) (for example, no sliding operation of the user or pressing of the display screen by the user is detected), the display interface is Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure e Figure 3As shown in Figure b.

[0111] Optionally, in a possible implementation, in Figure 3 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, if the user slides his finger upward or downward on the volume adjustment control 302, the display interface changes from Figure 3 The b picture in the figure does not jump; if the user presses the volume button 301, the display interface changes from Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure d in the figure. That is, in this implementation, there is no longer Figure 3 For example, the mobile phone displays Figure 3 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user slides the finger on the volume adjustment control 302: if the user slides the finger upward, Figure 3 The shadow part 3022 of the volume adjustment control 302 shown in FIG. b increases, and the non-shadow part 3021 decreases, and the volume of the mobile phone increases; if the user slides his finger downward, Figure 3 As shown in FIG. b, the area of ​​the shaded portion 3022 of the volume adjustment control 302 is reduced, and the area of ​​the non-shaded portion 3021 is increased, and the volume of the mobile phone is reduced.

[0112] Optionally, in a possible implementation, in Figure 3 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user slides the finger upward or downward on the volume adjustment control 302 or the user presses the volume button 301, the display interface changes to Figure 3 Jump to the b picture in Figure 3 As shown in Figure e in the figure. That is, in this implementation, there is no longer Figure 3 That is, when the user adjusts the volume through the volume adjustment control 302 or the volume button 301, the display interface switches to the following: Figure 3 For example, when the user slides his finger upward on the volume adjustment control 302, or the user presses the volume button 301 to increase the volume, Figure 3 The area of ​​the shaded portion 3022 in the display interface shown in FIG. e increases, and the area of ​​the non-shaded portion 3021 decreases; when the user slides the finger downward on the volume adjustment control 302, or the user presses the volume button 301 to reduce the volume, Figure 3 In the display interface shown in Figure e, the area of ​​the shaded portion 3022 is reduced, and the area of ​​the non-shaded portion 3021 is increased.

[0113] Optionally, in a possible implementation, in Figure 3In the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user slides the volume adjustment control 302 upward or downward or presses the volume button 301, the display interface will not jump. That is, in this implementation, no interface jump occurs. Figure 3 The d graph and Figure 3 When the user adjusts the volume through the volume adjustment control 302 or the volume button 301, the display interface basically remains as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown in Figure b, only the area of ​​the shadow part 3022 and the non-shadow part 3021 of the volume adjustment control 302 changes. For example, when the user slides his finger upward on the volume adjustment control 302, or the user presses the volume button 301 to increase the volume, Figure 3 The area of ​​the shaded portion 3022 in the display interface shown in FIG. b increases, and the area of ​​the non-shaded portion 3021 decreases; when the user slides the finger downward on the volume adjustment control 302, or the user presses the volume button 301 to reduce the volume, Figure 3 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, the area of ​​the shaded portion 3022 is reduced, and the area of ​​the non-shaded portion 3021 is increased.

[0114] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the volume adjustment control 302, the first volume adjustment control 3051, the second volume adjustment control 3052, the third volume adjustment control 3053, the fourth volume adjustment control 3054 and the volume display control 307 are all displayed vertically (that is, the above controls are all long strip structures, and the length direction of the long strip structure is set along the up and down direction of the mobile phone (or the length direction of the mobile phone)). In some other implementations, one or more of the volume adjustment control 302, the first volume adjustment control 3051, the second volume adjustment control 3052, the third volume adjustment control 3053, the fourth volume adjustment control 3054 and the volume display control 307 can also be displayed horizontally (that is, the length direction of the above controls is set along the left and right direction of the mobile phone (or the width direction of the mobile phone)). When a certain control is displayed horizontally, if it is necessary to operate the control in a sliding manner, the user slides his finger to the left or right on the control.

[0115] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the volume adjustment control 302, the first volume adjustment control 3051, the second volume adjustment control 3052, the third volume adjustment control 3053, the fourth volume adjustment control 3054 and the volume display control 307 are all displayed vertically near the volume button 301. In this implementation, the above controls can be displayed near the volume button 301 (that is, the above controls are bound to be displayed near the volume button 301), which conforms to the user's habit of adjusting the volume by hardware pressing, thereby improving the user experience.

[0116] Optionally, in some other implementations, one or more of the volume adjustment control 302, the volume adjustment window 305 and the volume display control 307 is a movable floating window, that is, the user can change the position of the floating window in the display interface as needed to facilitate user use.

[0117] Through the above method, users can enter the following Figure 3 The volume adjustment window shown in Figure b in the figure can realize the adjustment of multiple volumes in the volume adjustment window. In this embodiment, the user operation is simple, the operation method is user-friendly, and the user experience can be improved.

[0118] Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a display interface of another example of a process of adjusting volume on a mobile phone provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 As shown in Figure a, the user slides his finger to the left on the right edge of the mobile phone display.

Figure 5 The contents of the f graph in the above text can be referred to. Figure 1 The description of Figure d in is not repeated here.

[0132] Understandably, Figure 3 In the implementation shown, the user presses the volume button 301 or slides to the left on the right edge of the mobile phone display screen, and the initial volume adjustment interface called out is the same; Figure 5 In the implementation shown, the initial volume adjustment interface called out by the user by pressing the volume button 301 or sliding to the left on the right edge of the mobile phone display screen is also the same. Figure 5 The initial volume adjustment interface (i.e. Figure 5 The display interface shown in Figure b) is Figure 3 The initial volume adjustment interface (i.e. Figure 3 The display interface shown in Figure b is different. Figure 5 In the embodiment shown, no matter which method is used, the initial volume adjustment interface is Figure 5 The volume display control 307 in Figure b in the figure 307 occupies a small area of ​​the display screen. Therefore, when the user only needs to adjust the current volume of the mobile phone, the volume display control 307 covers a small area of ​​the display screen, thereby reducing the impact on the user's use and improving the user experience. And the user can slide to the left continuously to change the display interface. Figure 5 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 5 As shown in Figure e, multiple volume adjustments can be made, which is easy to operate.

[0134] Figure 6 The figure shows another example of a display interface diagram of a process of adjusting the volume on a mobile phone provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6As shown in Figure a, the user can press the volume button 601 of the mobile phone. After pressing, the display interface is changed from Figure 6 Jump to as shown in Figure a Figure 6 As shown in Figure b. Figure 6 As shown in Figure b, a volume adjustment box 602 is displayed on the right edge of the mobile phone near the display screen. The volume adjustment box 602 displays one or more volume icons, each volume icon corresponds to the volume of an application or a type of application, that is, each volume icon corresponds to a volume adjustment control. Exemplarily, Figure 6 The volume adjustment box 602 shown in FIG. b is displayed near the volume button 601. Figure 6 As shown in Figure b, four volume icons are displayed in the volume adjustment box 602: volume icon 603, volume icon 604, volume icon 605 and volume icon 606.

[0135] Exemplarily, a volume mark may be displayed in each volume icon to facilitate the user to identify each volume icon. Optionally, each volume icon may be displayed with a shaded portion and a non-shaded portion, and the proportion of the shaded portion indicates the size of the volume corresponding to the volume icon.

[0136] As a possible implementation, assuming that there are a total of 4 volume icons that need to be displayed, the volume adjustment box 602 can only display one volume icon at a time. When the user slides the volume icon in the volume adjustment box 602 up and down, the volume icon displayed in the volume adjustment box 602 switches, and each of the 4 volume icons can be displayed by switching. In this way, any number of volume icons can be displayed, and since the number of volume icons displayed at one time in the volume adjustment box 602 is limited, it can be avoided that the volume adjustment box 602 occupies too much area and excessively blocks the screen. Of course, the number of volume icons displayed at one time in the volume adjustment box 602 can be set as needed, for example, it can also be 2 or 3, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0137] As a possible implementation method, Figure 6 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user slides his finger on the volume adjustment box 602 to the left, the display interface changes from Figure 6 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 6 As shown in Figure c. Figure 6 As shown in Figure c, the volume adjustment window 607 is displayed in the display interface. The volume adjustment window 607 is displayed on the top layer of the display interface on the mobile phone display screen and covers a part of the display screen. Figure 6The volume adjustment box 602 shown in Figure b is similar to the volume adjustment window 607, which is also displayed near the volume button 601. The difference is that the area occupied by the volume adjustment window 607 is larger than the area occupied by the volume adjustment box 602. Four volume adjustment controls are displayed in the volume adjustment window 607: a first volume adjustment control 6071, a second volume adjustment control 6072, a third volume adjustment control 6073, and a fourth volume adjustment control 6074. A corresponding volume name is also displayed at the bottom of each volume adjustment control. The volume name can be the name of the application corresponding to the volume adjustment control or the type of application type. Figure 6 Each volume adjustment control in Figure c is Figure 6 The volume icon in Figure b corresponds to the volume icon in Figure b. Figure 6 The display interface shown in Figure c is the same as Figure 3 The display interface shown in Figure c is basically the same as Figure 6 The contents of Figure c can be referred to in the above Figure 3 The description of Figure c in is not repeated here.

[0140] Optionally, as a possible implementation method, the mobile phone displays Figure 6 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user presses the volume button 601 with a finger, the display interface changes from Figure 6 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 6 As shown in Figure d in FIG. 1 , a volume display control 609 is displayed on the right edge of the mobile phone display screen, and the volume display control 609 displays the current volume being adjusted. Figure 6 The display interface shown in Figure d is similar to Figure 1 The display interface is the same as that shown in Figure d. Figure 6 The contents of Figure d in the above paragraph can be referred to. Figure 1 The description of Figure d in is not repeated here.

[0141] In one possible implementation, Figure 6 In the display interface shown in FIG. b, when a volume icon is displayed in the volume adjustment box 602, when the user presses the volume button 601 with a finger, the volume corresponding to the volume icon displayed in the volume adjustment box 602 is confirmed to be adjusted, that is, Figure 6 The volume display control 609 shown in FIG. d shows the volume of the volume icon displayed in the volume adjustment box 602.

[0142] Optionally, in a possible implementation, Figure 6 In the display interface shown in Figure b, when multiple volume icons are displayed in the volume adjustment box 602, when the user presses the volume button 601 with a finger, the volume corresponding to one of the multiple volume icons (the volume icon can be considered as the default volume icon) is adjusted. Figure 6 The volume display control 609 shown in the figure d in FIG. 6 shows the volume of the default volume icon. For example, the default volume icon can be the volume icon located at the top or the volume icon located at the bottom in the volume adjustment box 602, and this application does not limit this. The user can change the position of the volume icon in the volume adjustment box 602 by dragging the volume icon in the volume adjustment box 602, thereby changing the default volume icon.

[0143] In one possible implementation, the mobile phone displays Figure 6 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user clicks the volume icon 603, the display interface changes from Figure 6 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 6 As shown in Figure e in FIG. 6 . The user clicks the volume icon 603, indicating that the user wants to adjust the volume of an application or a type of application corresponding to the volume icon 603. Figure 6 As shown in Figure e, the volume adjustment control 610 displays the volume corresponding to the volume icon 603. The user slides up or down on the volume adjustment control 610 with a finger to adjust the volume corresponding to the volume adjustment control 610.

A corresponding volume name is also displayed at the bottom of each volume adjustment control. The volume name may be the name of the application corresponding to the volume adjustment control or the type of application.

[0148] like Figure 7As shown in Figure c, the first control interface is displayed, and the first control interface includes a first volume adjustment control 7051 and a second volume adjustment control 7052. Figure 7 The second control interface is shown in Figure d, and the second control interface includes a third volume adjustment control 7053 and a fourth volume adjustment control 7054. Figure 7 As shown in Figures c and d in FIG, two volume adjustment controls are displayed simultaneously in the volume adjustment window 705.

[0149] Optionally, as a possible implementation, Figure 7 The display interface shown in Figure c and Figure 7 In the display interface shown in FIG. d, setting icon controls 707 are respectively displayed. Exemplarily, the setting icon control 707 can be displayed in the volume adjustment window 705. Of course, the setting icon control 707 can also be displayed in other positions, and the present application does not limit this.

[0150] like Figure 7 As shown in Figure d in FIG. 1, when the user clicks the setting icon control 707, the display interface is changed from Figure 7 Jump to as shown in Figure d Figure 7 As shown in Figure e, due to Figure 7 The display interface shown in Figure e is similar to Figure 1 The display interface is the same as that shown in Figure d. Figure 7 The contents of Figure e in the above text can be referred to. Figure 1 The description of Figure d in is not repeated here.

[0151] Optionally, as a possible implementation method, the mobile phone displays Figure 7 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user presses the volume button 701 with a finger, the display interface changes from Figure 7 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 7 As shown in Figure f. Figure 7 As shown in FIG. f in FIG. 7 , a volume display control 708 is displayed on the right edge of the mobile phone display.

[0153] It is understandable that Figure 7 Zhongyu Figure 3 The same display interface can also refer to the above Figure 3 The specific description of the switching process between the display interfaces in the present application will not be repeated in this application.

[0154] In the above implementation, if Figure 7 The sum shown in Figure c Figure 7 In the volume adjustment window 705 shown in FIG. d, two volume adjustment controls are displayed at the same time. The volume adjustment controls displayed in the volume adjustment window 705 are different in different display interfaces. In this implementation, the area occupied by the volume adjustment window 705 is smaller than that of the volume adjustment window 705 by reducing the number of volume adjustment controls in the volume adjustment window. Figure 3 The area occupied by the volume adjustment window 305 in the image is reduced, thereby reducing the obstruction of the display interface by the volume adjustment window 705, which can improve the user experience.

[0155] It is understandable that the number of volume adjustment controls displayed in each control interface can be even smaller, and the smaller the number of volume adjustment controls displayed in each control interface, the smaller the area of ​​the volume adjustment window 705 can be.

[0156] like Figure 8 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a display interface of another example of a process of adjusting volume on a mobile phone provided in an embodiment of the present application.

The volume adjustment window 905 is displayed on the top layer of the display interface on the mobile phone display screen and covers a part of the display screen. Fig. 9The volume adjustment control 902 shown in FIG. b is similar to the volume adjustment window 905 which is also displayed near the volume button 901, but the difference is that the area occupied by the volume adjustment window 905 is slightly larger than the area occupied by the volume adjustment control 902.

[0173] Optionally, as a possible implementation, Fig. 9 The display interface shown in Figure d and Fig. 9In the display interface shown in FIG. e, a setting icon control 908 is displayed. Exemplarily, the setting icon control 908 can be displayed in the volume adjustment window 906 or the volume adjustment window 907. Of course, the setting icon control 908 can also be displayed in other positions, and this application does not limit this.

[0174] like Fig. 9 As shown in Figure e in FIG. 1, when the user clicks the setting icon control 908, the display interface is changed from Fig. 9 Jump to as shown in Figure e Fig. 9 As shown in the figure f, due to Fig. 9 The display interface shown in Figure f is similar to Figure 1 The display interface is the same as that shown in Figure d.

[0175] Optionally, as a possible implementation method, the mobile phone displays Fig. 9 In the case of the display interface shown in FIG. b, when the user presses the volume button 901 with a finger, the display interface changes from Fig. 9 Jump to as shown in Figure b Fig. 9 As shown in Figure g. Fig. 9 As shown in FIG. g in FIG. 1 , a volume display control 909 is displayed on the right edge of the mobile phone display.

Fig. 9 The contents of the h graph in the above text can be referred to. Figure 3 The description of Figure e in is not repeated here.

[0179] It is understandable that Fig. 9 Zhongyu Figure 3 The same display interface can also refer to the above Figure 3 The specific description of the switching process between the display interfaces in the present application will not be repeated in this application.

[0180] It should be understood that in various embodiments of the present application, the various interfaces displayed by the various example mobile phones, the various operations of the user, etc. are merely illustrative and do not constitute specific limitations of the embodiments of the present application. For example: In other embodiments of the present application, the icons on the interfaces displayed by the various mobile phones provided above may include more or fewer icons than those displayed on the interfaces shown in any of the above figures, or combine certain icons, or split certain icons, or different icons, etc. The embodiments of the present application are not limited here.

[0181] Based on the above application scenarios and the above examples, the volume adjustment method provided by the present application is introduced below.

[0182] Fig.10 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a volume adjustment method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Fig.10As shown, the method 1000 comprises the following steps:

[0183] S1010: Receive a first operation from a user.

[0184] S1020: In response to the first operation, display a volume interaction control on the display screen, where the volume interaction control is used to prompt the user to adjust the volume.

[0185] S1030: Receive a second operation of the user on the volume interaction control.

[0186] S1040, in response to the second operation, displaying a first window on the display screen, wherein a plurality of volume adjustment controls are displayed in the first window, each volume adjustment control corresponds to a type of volume of the terminal device, wherein a type of volume includes a volume corresponding to an application of the terminal device or applications of the same type, and an area of ​​the first window is smaller than an area of ​​the interface where the first window is located.

[0187] S1050: Receive a third operation of the user on one or more volume adjustment controls among the multiple volume adjustment controls.

[0188] S1060: In response to the third operation, adjust the volume corresponding to one or more volume adjustment controls.

[0189] The volume adjustment method provided by the present application can trigger the first window (i.e., Figure 3 The volume adjustment window 305 shown in Figure c in FIG. Figure 7 The volume adjustment window 705 shown in Figure c, or Figure 8 In the first window, the user can adjust the volume of multiple different applications or the volume of multiple different types of applications; and because the area of ​​the first window is smaller than the area of ​​the interface, that is, the volume adjustment window covers part of the features of the interface, the user can continue to use the uncovered part of the interface while adjusting multiple volumes. The user can adjust multiple volumes through the volume adjustment method, which is simple to operate and improves the user experience.

[0190] In some possible implementations, a prompt control for prompting the user to adjust multiple volumes is displayed in the volume interaction control. In this implementation, the prompt function of the prompt control enables the user to realize that further operation of the volume adjustment control can perform multiple types of volume adjustment, thereby increasing the probability of the user performing the second operation and improving the user experience.

[0191] In some possible implementations, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a non-completely overlapping manner in the volume interaction control. Among the multiple volume adjustment controls that are displayed in a non-completely overlapping manner: a volume adjustment control located at the top is fully displayed, and other volume adjustment controls are partially displayed; and other partially displayed volume adjustment controls form prompt controls. Figure 3 In the specific description corresponding to the figure b in the figure, the volume interactive control displays the volume adjustment control 302 and other volume adjustment controls 303, wherein the other volume adjustment controls 303 are prompt controls, which are not described here for brevity. In this implementation, due to the use of a non-completely superimposed display method, the volume adjustment control located at the top layer of the multiple volume adjustment controls can be fully visible to the user, and the other volume adjustment controls located at the bottom layer can be partially visible to the user. By partially displaying the other volume adjustment controls, the user is prompted to perform multiple volume adjustments.

[0192] In some possible implementations, a plurality of volume icons are displayed in the volume interaction control, each volume icon corresponds to a volume adjustment control, and the area occupied by each volume icon is smaller than the area occupied by its corresponding volume adjustment control. Figure 6 The specific description corresponding to Figure b in FIG. 6 shows that the volume interactive control is the volume adjustment box 602. Figure 6 In Figure b, a total of four volume icons are displayed: volume icon 603, volume icon 604, volume icon 605 and volume icon 606; for the sake of brevity, they are not repeated here.

[0193] In some possible implementations, after receiving the second operation, the method further includes: stopping displaying the volume interaction control. Figure 3 Detailed description of the switching process from Figure b to Figure c in FIG. 1 , after receiving the second operation, the volume interaction control (i.e., the volume adjustment control 302 and other volume adjustment controls 303) is switched to the first window (i.e., the volume adjustment window 305). In this implementation, the volume interaction control is stopped from being displayed, that is, after receiving the second operation, the volume interaction control is switched to the first window, thereby reducing the coverage of the interface, making it visible to the user except for the area covered by the first window, thereby improving the user experience.

[0194] In some possible implementations, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a non-overlapping manner in the first window. Figure 3The specific description corresponding to Figure c in FIG. 305 shows that the multiple volume adjustment controls include: a first volume adjustment control 3051, a second volume adjustment control 3052, a third volume adjustment control 3053 and a fourth volume adjustment control 3054. The first window is the volume adjustment window 305. For the sake of brevity, it is not repeated here. In this implementation, the multiple volume adjustment controls are not displayed in a superimposed manner. This display state can be called an "expanded state". The expanded state facilitates the user to adjust the various volume adjustment controls.

[0195] In some possible implementations, a setting icon control is also displayed in the first window, and the method further includes: in response to a fourth operation of the user on the setting icon control, displaying a sound setting interface of the terminal device on the display screen. Figure 3 The first window is a volume adjustment window 305, the setting icon control is a setting icon control 306, and the sound setting interface is Figure 3 In addition, the fourth operation may be a click operation on the setting icon control (for example, a single click or a double click), or any other feasible operation mode, which will not be described here for brevity. In this implementation, the setting icon is displayed in the first window, which facilitates the user to enter the sound setting interface of the terminal device, thereby facilitating the user's use and improving the user experience.

[0196] In some possible implementations, the method further includes: when the volume interactive control is displayed on the display screen, if a user presses the volume button, a first volume display control is displayed on the display screen, and the first volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment corresponding to the volume interactive control; if a user slides the volume interactive control, a second volume display control is displayed on the display screen, and the second volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment corresponding to the volume interactive control, and the first volume display control and the second volume display control are different. For example, Figure 3 The volume interactive controls are as follows: Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 and other volume adjustment controls 303 shown in FIG. 1 are composed of a first volume display control. Figure 3 The volume display control 307 shown in Figure d in the figure, the second volume display control is Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in FIG. e is not described here for brevity. In this implementation, different volume display controls are displayed in response to two different volume adjustment operation modes, making the operation more interactive.

[0197] In some possible implementations, the area occupied by the first volume display control is smaller than the area occupied by the second volume display control. Figure 3The specific description corresponding to Figures b, d and e in FIG. 1 is as follows: the first volume display control is Figure 3 The volume display control 307 shown in Figure d in the figure, the second volume display control is Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in Figure e; wherein the volume display control 307 can be called the "minimum state", Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 and other volume adjustment controls shown in FIG. b can be referred to as a "default state". Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in Figure d in the figure can be called the "press and hold state", which will not be described here for the sake of brevity. In this implementation, when the user presses the volume button to adjust the volume, the first volume display control displayed on the display screen occupies a smaller area, so the display screen is less blocked; when the user adjusts the volume by sliding, the second volume display control with a larger area is displayed on the display screen, which is convenient for the user to find the operation area for sliding operation to adjust the volume.

[0198] In some possible implementations, the method further includes: when the display screen displays the first volume display control, if a user sliding operation on the first volume display control is detected, displaying a second volume display control on the display screen. Figure 3 The volume display control 307 shown in Figure d in the figure, the second volume display control is Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in Figure e in FIG. When the user slides up or down on the volume display control 307, Figure 3 The display interface in the figure switches from that shown in Figure d to that shown in Figure e. For the sake of brevity, it will not be described here. In this implementation, when the user slides the first volume display control, the first volume display control on the display screen is switched to the second volume display control, that is, the volume adjustment can be switched from pressing the volume button to sliding operation, and the operation method is flexible and convenient for users.

[0199] In some possible implementations, the method further includes: when the display screen displays the second volume display control, if a user presses the volume button, displaying the first volume display control on the display screen. Figure 3 The volume display control 307 shown in Figure d in the figure, the second volume display control is Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 shown in Figure e in FIG. When the user presses the volume button, Figure 3 The display interface is switched from the volume adjustment window 305 shown in Figure e to the volume adjustment window 305 shown in Figure d. For the sake of brevity, it is not repeated here. In this implementation, the current volume adjustment method of the terminal device can be switched from pressing the volume button to sliding operation, which is flexible and convenient for users.

[0200] In some possible implementations, the first operation includes: a pressing operation on a volume button, a sliding operation on a first edge area of ​​a display screen, or a clicking operation on the first edge area of ​​the display screen.

[0201] In some possible implementations, one or more of the volume interaction control, the first window, the first volume display control, and the second volume display control are displayed on the display screen at a position close to the operation position of the first operation. Figure 3 In the example shown, the volume interactive control is as follows Figure 3 The volume control 302 and other volume control 303 in Figure b are composed of the first window. Figure 3 In the volume adjustment window 305 in Figure c, the first volume display control is Figure 3 The volume display control 307 in the figure d, the second volume display control or window is Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 in Figure e of FIG. 1 is displayed near the volume button on the display screen; for the sake of brevity, other contents and other examples are not described here. In this implementation, the controls or windows related to volume adjustment are displayed on the display screen near the operation position of the first operation. Thus, the displayed controls or windows are bound to the function of "volume adjustment", which facilitates users to identify the functions of the displayed controls or windows and improves the user experience.

[0202] In some possible implementations, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a superimposed manner in the first window. Before the third operation, the method further includes: receiving a fifth operation of the user on the first window; in response to the fifth operation, switching the volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer of the multiple volume adjustment controls displayed in a superimposed manner. Multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in a superimposed manner in the first window. The number of volume adjustment controls displayed on the top layer can be one (e.g., Figure 8 c in Figure ), or two (as shown in Figure Figure 7 As shown in Figure c in the figure), of course, the number of volume adjustment controls displayed on the top layer can be more, and there is no limit to this. Figure 7 As shown, the fifth operation may be "the user slides his finger to the left on the volume adjustment window 705". In response to the fifth operation, the display interface is changed from Figure 7 Jump to the c figure as shown in Figure 7 As shown in Figure d. For details, please refer to Figure 7The specific descriptions corresponding to Figures c and d in the figure are not repeated here for the sake of brevity. The number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the first window can be reduced by overlaying the display. When necessary, the user can adjust different volumes by switching the volume adjustment controls displayed on the top layer. The operation is simple and the user experience is improved.

[0203] In some possible implementations, a volume control is displayed at the top layer in the first window, and marks corresponding to at least some of the volume control marks in the plurality of volume control marks are displayed in the first window, and the first control is displayed on the mark corresponding to the volume control displayed at the top layer, and after receiving the fifth operation, the position of the first control changes. Figure 8 The specific descriptions corresponding to Figures c and d in Figure 8 In Figure c, the first control is control 8060, and the identifiers corresponding to the multiple volume adjustment controls include: identifier 8061, identifier 8062, identifier 8063, and identifier 8064; Figure 8 The volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer in Figure c is the first volume adjustment control 8051. Figure 8 In Figure c, control 8060 is displayed on label 8061, so Figure 8 In the c figure, the identifier 8061 is covered by the control 8060, and for the sake of brevity, it is not repeated here. In this implementation, by displaying the identifier corresponding to each volume adjustment control (or control interface), and the position of the first control changes when the volume adjustment control is switched, it is convenient for the user to switch any volume adjustment control to the top layer for display, the user operation is simple, user-friendly, and the efficiency of switching the volume adjustment control in the first window and the user experience are improved.

[0204] Exemplarily, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in multiple control interfaces, the first window displays a control interface at the same time, and each control interface displays part of the multiple volume adjustment controls in a non-overlapping manner. The method further includes: in response to a fifth operation of the user on the first window, the first window switches from the first control interface to the second control interface, and the one or more volume adjustment controls targeted by the third operation include at least one volume adjustment control in the second control interface. For example, you can refer to Figure 8 The specific descriptions corresponding to Figures c and d in Figure 8 In the example shown, four volume adjustment controls are displayed in four control interfaces, and only one control interface can be displayed at a time (ie, one volume adjustment control is displayed). Figure 8 In the volume adjustment window 805 in Figure c, the first volume adjustment control 8051 (i.e., the first control interface) is displayed. Figure 8The second volume adjustment control 8052 displayed in the volume adjustment window 805 in the figure d is another control interface (i.e., the second control interface), which will not be described here for brevity. In this implementation, multiple volume adjustment controls are displayed in multiple control interfaces, and some of the volume adjustment controls in the multiple volume adjustment controls can be displayed in a control interface without overlapping. Figure 8 In Figures c and d in Figure 1, a control interface can display a volume adjustment control without overlapping. In this way, Figure 8 The area of ​​the "volume adjustment window 805" in Figure c is smaller than Figure 3 The area of ​​the "volume adjustment window 305" in Figure c in the figure is reduced, thereby reducing the coverage area of ​​the first window (i.e., the volume adjustment window 805) on the features in the interface, increasing the interface area that the user can view during multiple types of volume adjustment, and improving the user experience.

[0205] Exemplarily, a first control is displayed on the display screen, and multiple identifiers corresponding to the control interfaces are displayed in the first control. When the first window displays the first control interface, the identifier corresponding to the first control interface and the identifier corresponding to the second control interface change. Figure 8 The specific descriptions corresponding to Figures c and d in Figure 8 Figure c and Figure 8 As shown in Figure d in the figure, the first control is control 806, and the identifiers corresponding to the multiple control interfaces are identifier 8061, identifier 8062, identifier 8063, and identifier 8064, which are not described here for brevity. In this implementation, by displaying the identifier corresponding to each control interface, and the identifier of the control interface to be switched is changed, it is convenient for the user to switch any control interface to the top layer for display. The user operation is simple and user-friendly, which improves the efficiency of switching the control interface in the first window and the user experience.

[0206] In some possible implementations, the fifth operation includes: a click operation on an identifier corresponding to a volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer, a slide operation on the first control, or a slide operation on a volume adjustment control displayed on the top layer. Figure 8 The specific descriptions corresponding to Figures c and d in the figure, the fifth operation can be a click operation on the icon 8062 in the control 806, a sliding operation on the control 8060, or a sliding operation on the first volume adjustment control 8051 displayed on the top layer. For the sake of brevity, it will not be repeated here.

[0207] In some possible implementations, before receiving the third operation, the method further includes: receiving a sixth operation of the user on the first window; in response to the sixth operation, the first window is switched to the second window, and the number of volume adjustment controls simultaneously displayed in the first window is different from the number of volume adjustment controls simultaneously displayed in the second window. Fig. 9 The specific descriptions corresponding to Figures c and d in the figure are as follows: Fig. 9 In the example shown, the first window is a volume adjustment window 905, and the second window is a volume adjustment window 906. One volume adjustment control is displayed simultaneously in the volume adjustment window 905, and two volume adjustment controls are displayed simultaneously in the volume adjustment window 906. In this implementation, the user can switch the volume adjustment window 905 to the volume adjustment window 906 through the sixth operation. The user can switch the first window and the second window as needed, which can meet the different needs of the user for the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously, thereby improving the user experience.

[0208] In some possible implementations, if the area occupied by the first window is larger than the area occupied by the second window, the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the first window is larger than the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the second window; if the area occupied by the first window is smaller than the area occupied by the second window, the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the first window is smaller than the number of volume adjustment controls displayed simultaneously in the second window. In this implementation, the number of volume adjustment controls in the window is changed as the area occupied by the window changes, and the window area can be fully utilized, so that the user can adjust the area covered by the display screen when adjusting multiple types of volume as needed. Of course, the user can also switch the volume adjustment window 906 to the volume adjustment window 905, which will not be repeated here for the sake of brevity. For example, when the user adjusts multiple types of volume while watching a video, the volume adjustment window 905 with a smaller area can be selected. When the user does not need to just look at the screen, the volume adjustment window 906 with a larger area can be selected to adjust multiple types of volume, thereby improving the efficiency of volume adjustment.

[0209] In some possible implementations, the method further includes: when the display screen displays the volume interactive control, if a user presses the volume button or a user slides the volume interactive control, a third volume display control is displayed on the display screen, the third volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment corresponding to the volume interactive control, and the area occupied by the third volume display control is smaller than the area occupied by the volume interactive control. Figure 3 As shown in Figure b, if the user adjusts the volume by pressing the volume button or sliding, the third volume display control (such as Figure 3The volume display control 307 shown in Figure d or the volume adjustment control 302 shown in Figure e), that is, the display interface is composed of Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure d, or the display interface is Figure 3 Jump to as shown in Figure b Figure 3 As shown in Figure e in the figure, for the sake of brevity, it will not be repeated here. In this implementation, when it is detected that the user presses the volume button or slides the volume interactive control, the third volume display control is displayed, and the interactive scene is simple and easy to develop.

[0210] In some possible implementations, before receiving the user's first operation, the method further includes: in response to the user's seventh operation, displaying a fourth volume display control on the display screen, the fourth volume display control displays a type of volume adjustment of the terminal device, the first operation is an operation on the fourth volume display control, and the area occupied by the fourth volume display control is smaller than the area occupied by the volume interaction control; when the fourth volume display control is displayed on the display screen, if the user presses the volume button or detects the user slides the fourth volume display control, the display screen keeps displaying the fourth volume display control, and the volume displayed in the fourth volume display control changes. For example, if the user presses the volume button, slides from the left edge of the display screen to the right, or double-clicks, etc., the fourth volume display control is first displayed on the display screen (e.g., the fourth volume display control can be Figure 3 The volume display control 307 shown in FIG. d or the volume adjustment control 302 shown in FIG. e), and then the user performs a first operation on the fourth volume display control, and the display interface switches to the following: Figure 3 As shown in Figure b in the figure; if the user presses the volume button, or the user's finger slides up or down on the fourth volume display control, the fourth volume display control will remain displayed. For the sake of brevity, it will not be repeated here. In this implementation, the user's volume adjustment demand is identified through the user's seventh operation (for example, the seventh operation can be an operation of pressing the volume button, sliding from the left edge of the display screen to the right, or double-clicking, etc.), thereby displaying the fourth volume display control; when the user only needs to adjust one type of volume of the terminal device (which can be considered as a default type of volume), the display screen will continue to display the fourth volume display control. When the user only adjusts one type of volume of the terminal device, only the fourth volume display control, which occupies a smaller area than the volume interaction control, is displayed, thereby reducing the coverage of the display screen.

[0211] In some possible implementations, one or more of the volume interaction control, the first window, the first volume display control, the second volume display control, the third volume display control, or the fourth volume display control is displayed on the display screen at a position close to the operation position of the first operation. Figure 3 In the example shown, the volume interactive control is as follows Figure 3 The volume control 302 and other volume control 303 in Figure b are composed of the first window. Figure 3 In the volume adjustment window 305 in Figure c, the first volume display control is Figure 3 The volume display control 307 in the figure d, the second volume display control or window is Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 in Figure e of FIG. 1 is displayed near the volume button on the display screen; for the sake of brevity, other contents and other examples are not described here. In this implementation, the controls or windows related to volume adjustment are displayed on the display screen near the operation position of the first operation. Thus, the displayed controls or windows are bound to the function of "volume adjustment", which facilitates users to identify the functions of the displayed controls or windows and improves the user experience.

[0212] In some possible implementations, the first operation is a sliding operation on the edge of the display screen, or a clicking operation on the edge of the display screen; the method further includes: in response to the user pressing the volume button, displaying a fifth volume display control on the display screen, the area occupied by the fifth volume display control is smaller than the area occupied by the volume interactive control. Figure 3 When the first operation of the volume adjustment control 302 in FIG. b is a sliding operation or a clicking operation (i.e., pressing the volume button does not belong to the first operation), when the user presses the volume button, a fifth volume display control with a smaller area will be called out (for example, the fifth volume display control can be Figure 3 The volume display control 307 in Figure d, or Figure 3 The volume adjustment control 302 in Figure e of FIG. 3 is not described here for brevity. In this implementation, when the user's volume adjustment demand is detected, if the user's initial operation is a sliding operation or a clicking operation, the volume interactive control is displayed, and if the user's initial operation is an operation of pressing the volume button, the fifth volume display control is displayed; therefore, different controls are displayed according to different initial operation modes of the user, thereby enhancing interactivity and improving user experience.

[0213] For ease of understanding, the following uses a mobile phone as an example to illustrate the design ideas of the volume adjustment process. In the volume adjustment process, multiple display interfaces showing different controls (controls related to volume adjustment) are involved. For ease of description, the volume adjustment-related controls displayed in each display interface can be regarded as a state. Figure 3 Take this as an example to illustrate.

[0214] Figure 3 The states corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302 and other volume adjustment controls 303 shown in FIG. b are "default states". Figure 3 The state corresponding to the volume adjustment window 305 shown in Figure c is the "expanded state". Figure 3 The state corresponding to the volume display control 307 shown in Figure d is the "minimum state". Figure 3 The state corresponding to the volume adjustment control 302 shown in Figure e is the "press and hold state". Therefore, when "default state", "expanded state", "minimum state" and "press and hold state" appear in the following text, those skilled in the art can directly correspond to Figure 3 The corresponding display interface in .

[0215] The following is an explanation of the design ideas of the volume adjustment process with reference to the attached drawings. Fig.11 This is a schematic diagram of the design concept of the volume adjustment process in an example of the present application.

[0216] like Fig.11 As shown, when the user wants to adjust the volume (i.e., "I want to adjust the volume"), the user presses the volume button to enter the volume adjustment "entrance", and the display interface shows "default state" (such as Figure 3 If the user wants to adjust the current volume of the phone (the current volume is the volume of the currently open application, or the volume of the application type to which the currently open application belongs), the user can adjust the current volume by "hardware continues to press" or "hand sliding": "hardware continues to press" means continuing to press the volume button. If the user "hardware continues to press", the display interface will jump from "default state" to "minimum state" (such as Figure 3 "Touch and slide" means that the finger touches the control in the "default state" and slides. If the user "touch and slides", the display interface will jump from the "default state" to the "press and hold state" (as shown in Figure d in the figure); "touch and slide" means that the finger touches the control in the "default state" and slides. Figure 3As shown in Figure e), when the user "relaxes" (that is, the user's finger no longer touches the "default state" control), the display interface will jump from the "press and hold state" back to the "default state". If the user wants to adjust the global volume of the phone (that is, the volume of multiple applications or multiple applications on the phone), the user can adjust the global volume by "touching up and pulling to the left": "touching up and pulling to the left" means sliding the finger to the left on the "default state" control, and the display interface jumps from the "default state" to the "expanded state" ( Figure 3 The user can adjust the volume that he wants to adjust in the "expanded" control.

[0217] It is understandable that the user can also enter the "entrance" of the volume adjustment by sliding the finger to the left on the right edge of the mobile phone display, or by double-clicking on the right side of the mobile phone display; "touching up and sliding" means touching the control in the "default state" with the finger and sliding, which can be up and down sliding or left and right sliding, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0218] In order to better understand the "default state", "expanded state", "minimum state" and "press and hold state" in the embodiments of the present application, the scenes, adjustment behaviors and user gestures corresponding to each state are classified and explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Fig.12 Schematic diagram of the corresponding relationship among the state, scene, behavior, and gesture of the volume adjustment process in an example of the present application. Fig.12 As shown, the scenario corresponding to the "default state" is "hardware volume adjustment", the corresponding adjustment behavior is "hardware wake-up", and the corresponding user gesture is "pressing hardware"; the scenario corresponding to the "minimum state" is "hardware volume adjustment", the corresponding adjustment behavior is "hardware adjustment", and the corresponding user gesture is "pressing hardware"; the scenario corresponding to the "press and hold state" is "gesture volume adjustment", the corresponding adjustment behavior is "sliding adjustment", and the corresponding user gesture is "press and hold and slide up and down (or left and right)"; the scenario corresponding to the "expanded state" is "setting global volume", the corresponding adjustment behavior is "slide to expand", and the corresponding user gesture is "slide to the left".
