[0041] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0042] The embodiments of the present application provide a display control method and an electronic device, which are used to provide more accurate and clear mode prompts for the mode of an electronic device such as a laptop computer according to different usage modes divided based on corresponding dimensions, so as to avoid users being unclear about the meaning represented by the mode prompts of the device.

[0043] The display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to electronic devices in many general or special computing device environments or configurations, such as personal computers, server computers, handheld devices or portable devices, tablet devices, multi-processor devices, etc.

[0044] See also Figure 1 As shown in the method flow chart, the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may include the following steps 101 to 102, and these steps are described in detail below.

[0045] Step 101: Obtain first information.

[0046] The first information includes operation status monitoring information obtained by performing target operation status monitoring on the electronic device.

[0047] The target operating state is an operating state corresponding to when the electronic device is in a target mode. The target mode is a corresponding usage mode among different usage modes of the electronic device divided based on corresponding dimensions.

[0048] Different usage modes of electronic devices divided based on corresponding dimensions may include, but are not limited to: a mode of calling a target model and a mode of not calling a target model divided based on whether the electronic device has called a target model, a completed charging mode and an uncompleted charging mode divided based on whether the electronic device has completed charging, a read-write mode and a non-read-write mode divided based on whether a hard disk of the electronic device has read and write operations, etc. The embodiment of the present application will mainly illustrate the scheme based on the mode of calling a target model and the mode of not calling a target model divided based on whether the electronic device has called a target model.

[0049] The target model learns the characteristics and rules of the input information by training a large amount of diverse data. It usually has model parameters of hundreds of millions to hundreds of billions (model parameters are variables that control the behavior of the target model), which can capture the complex relationships and patterns in the input information. The target model can be a generative model (generative models), a generative language model (generative language models, GLMs). For example, it can specifically include large language models (largelanguage models, LLMs), GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer), a large visual model, a multimodal large model, etc. The model involved in the embodiment of the present application can be a general large model, or it can be an expert large model obtained after fine-tuning based on demand, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0050] The target model calling mode and the target model not calling mode divided based on whether the electronic device calls the target model can also be referred to as AI mode or non-AI mode respectively. In this mode division method, the target mode can specifically be AI mode.

[0051] The operating state monitoring information obtained by monitoring the target operating state of the electronic device, that is, the first information, can represent whether the electronic device is in the target mode.

[0052] For example, assuming that the target mode is the AI ​​mode, the operating status monitoring information that can be used to characterize whether the electronic device is operating in the AI ​​mode can be obtained by monitoring the operating status corresponding to the AI ​​mode on the electronic device.

[0053] Step 102: If the first information indicates that the electronic device is in the target mode, output second information at the first position, and / or output third information at the second position.

[0054] The first position has description information for the target mode, and the second information is used to identify the description information.

[0055] The first position may be a position provided by a component of the electronic device itself and used for information output, or may be a position provided by an external component or external device to which the electronic device is connected through a corresponding connection method and used for information output. For example, it may be, but is not limited to, a function key, indicator light, device logo (such as a logo of a laptop) on a keyboard of an electronic device such as a laptop, or an information output position provided / represented by a function key on an external keyboard, etc.

[0056] The corresponding connection method can be a wired connection method, or it can also be a wireless connection method, such as a connection method based on a connection line, or a Bluetooth connection method, a Wi-Fi connection method, etc. There is no limitation to this, and it depends on the actual application situation.

[0057] The description information for the target mode at the first position can be used to indicate the target mode intuitively and clearly, and specifically may include but is not limited to words, characters and / or patterns that can be used to indicate the target mode.

[0058] Taking the first position as the information output position provided by the function key on the electronic device as an example, the description information may include but is not limited to the text, characters and / or patterns printed on the function key by corresponding printing technology to indicate the target mode. Specifically, it may include but is not limited to the silk screen on the function key, wherein the silk screen on the function key refers to the text, characters or patterns printed on the surface of the function key by silk screen printing technology. For example, the identifier "AI" printed on the AI ​​function key by silk screen printing technology.

[0059] The second information used to identify the description information may include, but is not limited to, lights and / or voices that can be used to specifically guide to the description information and identify the description information.

[0060] There is no description information for the target mode at the second position, and the third information includes information that can be used to describe the target mode.

[0061] The second position can also be a position provided by a component of the electronic device itself that can be used for information output, or can also be a position provided by an external component or external device to which the electronic device is connected through a corresponding connection method that can be used for information output. Unlike the first position, the second position does not have descriptive information for the target mode. Exemplarily, the second position can specifically include but is not limited to the display screen of the electronic device itself, such as a laptop computer, and / or an external display screen, such as the main display screen (main screen) of a laptop computer, or an auxiliary display screen (secondary screen) provided on the A surface of the laptop computer, etc.

[0062] The third information includes information that can be used to describe the target mode, which may specifically include but is not limited to text, characters (identifiers), patterns, images and / or special effects, animations, animated images, videos, etc. that can be used to indicate / identify the target mode.

[0063] In summary, the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application obtains the first information, and when the first information indicates that the electronic device is in the target mode, the second information is output at the first position, and / or the third information is output at the second position. Since the first position has descriptive information for the target mode, by outputting the second information for identifying the descriptive information at the first position, it is possible to intuitively and clearly prompt that the current mode of the electronic device is the target mode, and by outputting the second information including information that can be used to describe the target mode at the second position where there is no descriptive information for the target mode, it is also possible to achieve the effect of intuitively and clearly prompting that the current mode of the electronic device is the target mode. Therefore, based on the scheme of the present application, a more accurate and clear mode prompt for the mode of the electronic device can be achieved, which overcomes the problem that the user is not clear about the meaning represented by the mode prompt of the device, and improves the user experience.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, outputting the second information at the first position in step 102 may be implemented by lighting up a first logo body in a device logo body of the electronic device; the first logo body can be used to provide corresponding descriptive information for the target mode.

[0065] In this embodiment, the first position is a position represented by a first logo body in a device logo body of the electronic device, and the second information is light information presented by the first logo body after the first logo body is lit.

[0066] The device logo body of the electronic device is used to form the device logo of the electronic device, which may specifically be, but is not limited to, the logo of the electronic device.

[0067] The corresponding description information of the target mode provided by the first logo may include visual feature information corresponding to the target mode presented by the first logo. Exemplarily, assuming that the target mode is the AI ​​mode, and assuming that the device logo is the logo "abcxi" on a laptop computer, the first logo may be a first character combination formed by the character "a" and the character "i" in the logo "abcxi", or may be a second character combination formed by the character "a" and the lower half of the character "i" (i.e., removing the dot on the upper half of the character "i") in the logo "abcxi". Both character combinations can present visual feature information corresponding to the AI ​​mode, such as the character combination "ai" in "abcxi" or the "AI" represented by the visual effect after removing the dot on "i" in the character combination "ai".

[0068] In this embodiment, in response to the first information representing that the electronic device is in the target mode, the first logo in the device logo of the electronic device is lit. By lighting the first logo, the corresponding descriptive information of the target mode on the first logo is marked, so that the user can clearly and unambiguously know that the electronic device is currently operating in the target mode based on the marking effect.

[0069] For example, the first character combination in the logo "abcxi" is lit, or the second character combination is lit, etc. Figure 2 An example is provided, which provides a schematic diagram of the contrast effect of lighting up the second character combination in the logo "abcxi" in the AI ​​mode and not lighting up the second character combination in the non-AI mode. By lighting up the first sign body such as the second character combination, the corresponding descriptive information of the AI ​​mode on the first sign body (such as the character combination "ai" or the character combination obtained by removing the dot on the "i" in "ai") is marked, so that the user can intuitively understand that the electronic device is currently running in the AI ​​mode.

[0070] In this embodiment, in response to the first information representing that the electronic device is in the target mode, the first logo body in the device logo body of the electronic device that can be used to provide corresponding descriptive information for the target mode is lit up, thereby achieving the effect of identifying the corresponding descriptive information for the target mode provided by the first logo body. Based on this identification effect, the user can clearly and distinctly know that the electronic device is currently operating in the target mode according to the visual features presented by the first logo body, thereby overcoming the problem that the user is not clear about the meaning represented by the mode prompt of the device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0071] In an optional embodiment, outputting the second information at the first position in step 102 may be implemented by lighting up a function key corresponding to the target mode.

[0072] The function keys can be used to control the electronic device to enter or exit the target mode, and can specifically be function keys provided by the electronic device itself or function keys provided by an external component / external device, such as function keys on a laptop computer's own keyboard or function keys on an external keyboard.

[0073] The function key has descriptive information for the target mode, and the descriptive information may specifically be, but is not limited to, a silk screen on the function key that can be used to describe the target description, such as text, identifiers and / or patterns printed on the surface of the function key by silk screen printing technology.

[0074] Still taking the target mode as AI mode as an example, the function key can be an AI function key that can be used to control the electronic device to enter or exit AI mode, and the description information of the AI ​​mode on the function key can be the identifier "AI" printed on the function key by printing technology such as screen printing.

[0075] For the AI ​​function key, the user can actively switch between AI mode and non-AI mode by operating the function key based on actual needs, but is not limited to this. A common application scenario is that when the electronic device is in non-AI mode, the application or function running needs to call an AI model such as a large model, and the user may not be aware of this calling event, which will correspondingly cause the electronic device to switch from non-AI mode to AI mode without the user actively switching the mode. The method of this embodiment is mainly aimed at the latter application scenario to intuitively and clearly prompt the user of the target mode such as the AI ​​mode entered by the electronic device.

[0076] In this embodiment, in response to the first information indicating that the electronic device is in the target mode, the function key corresponding to the target mode is lit up. By lighting up the function key corresponding to the target mode, the target mode description information on the function key is identified, so that the user can clearly and clearly know that the electronic device is currently running in the target mode based on the identification effect.

[0077] In this implementation manner, the second information is the light information presented by the function key after the function key is lit.

[0078] In implementation, the effect of lighting up the function key can be achieved by providing a light source at the back of the function key and lighting up the light source at the back of the function key.

[0079] Exemplarily, a light source is set on the back of the AI ​​function key, and when it is detected that the first information represents that the electronic device is in AI mode, the light source on the back of the AI ​​function key is lit, so as to achieve the effect of lighting up the AI ​​function key and identifying the character "AI" on the function key, such as Figure 3 The example provided ( Figure 3 The appearance and position of the AI ​​function key are only examples and can be designed as needed in actual applications). Users can know that the electronic device is currently running in AI mode based on the identifier "AI" highlighted after the AI ​​function key is lit.

[0080] This embodiment can achieve the effect of identifying the corresponding descriptive information of the target mode provided by the function button in response to the first information representing that the electronic device is in the target mode, by lighting up the function button corresponding to the target mode. Based on this identification effect, the user can clearly and unambiguously know that the electronic device is currently running in the target mode according to the descriptive information of the target mode presented by the function button, thereby overcoming the problem that the user is not clear about the meaning represented by the mode prompt of the device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0081] In an optional embodiment, outputting the third information at the second position in step 102 may be implemented by outputting description information of the target mode on a display screen of the electronic device.

[0082] The display screen may be a display screen of the electronic device itself, or may be a display screen externally connected to the electronic device via a display interface.

[0083] The display screen may be a main display screen of the electronic device, or may be an auxiliary display screen of the electronic device, for example, a main screen arranged on the B surface of a laptop computer or a secondary screen arranged on the A surface or C surface of the laptop computer.

[0084] In this embodiment, in response to the first information representing that the electronic device is in the target mode, description information of the target mode is output on the display screen of the electronic device, so that the user can intuitively and clearly know that the mode of the electronic device is the target mode based on the description information output on the display screen.

[0085] Still taking the target mode as AI mode as an example, in response to the first information characterizing that the electronic device is in AI mode, any one or more of text, characters (identifiers), patterns, images, special effects, animations, animated images, videos, etc. that can be used to indicate the AI ​​mode can be displayed on the display screen of the electronic device, such as the main screen and / or sub-screen of a laptop computer. Exemplarily, for example, the AI ​​identifier is displayed in the form of a floating frame or a floating ball in the edge area such as the upper left corner or the lower right corner of the main screen of the laptop computer, or characters and animations indicating the AI ​​mode are displayed on the sub-screen of the laptop computer. See Figure 4 (a) and Figure 4 (b), wherein Figure 4 (a) provides an example of displaying the AI ​​identifier in the form of a floating ball in the lower right corner of the main screen (main display screen) of the laptop computer, and Figure 4 (b) provides an example of displaying the AI ​​identifier on the sub-screen (auxiliary display screen) of the laptop computer. The sub-screen can be set on a preset panel of the laptop computer, such as the panel of the A side.

[0086] In addition, optionally, when the display screen of the electronic device outputs the description information of the target mode, it can also be used in combination with voice prompts and / or light prompts to jointly prompt the electronic device to enter the target mode. For example, when it is detected that the electronic device enters the AI ​​mode from the non-AI mode, in addition to displaying the characters and animations indicating the AI ​​mode on the secondary screen of the laptop, voice and / or light prompts can also be used to prompt the user to enter the AI ​​mode.

[0087] This embodiment outputs description information of the target mode on the display screen of the electronic device in response to the first information representing that the electronic device is in the target mode. This allows the user to clearly and unambiguously know that the electronic device is currently operating in the target mode based on the description information of the target mode displayed on the display screen, thereby overcoming the problem that the user is unclear about the meaning represented by the mode prompt of the device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0088] In an optional embodiment, the target mode in the present application is a mode of calling a target model, and the target model is specifically a large model.

[0089] When the electronic device calls the target model, it can specifically call the local target model, or it can also call the target model in the cloud, for example, calling the local large model or the cloud large model, etc. There is no restriction on this, and it can be determined according to the actual application needs.

[0090] For different modes divided based on whether the electronic device has called the big model, such as the AI ​​mode that has called the big model and the non-AI mode that has not called the big model, in response to the first information characterizing that the electronic device is in the target mode of the AI ​​mode that has called the big model, the second information can be output at the first position and / or the third information can be output at the second position to facilitate the user to intuitively and clearly know that the electronic device is in the target mode of the AI ​​mode that has called the big model.

[0091] Exemplarily, for example, in response to the first information indicating that the electronic device is in the AI ​​mode that has called up the large model, the second character combination formed by the character "a" in the laptop computer's logo "abcxi" and the lower half of the character "i" (i.e., removing the dot from the upper half of the character "i") is lit, or the AI ​​function key is lit, or an animation indicating that the electronic device has entered the AI ​​mode is displayed on the secondary screen of the laptop computer, and so on.

[0092] This embodiment, with respect to different modes divided based on whether the electronic device has called the large model, can output second information at a first position and / or output third information at a second position in response to the first information characterizing that the electronic device is in a target mode that has called the large model, so that the user can understand intuitively and clearly that the electronic device is in the target mode that has called the large model based on the description information of the target mode at the first position identified by the second information and / or the information included in the third information that can be used to describe the target mode, and can provide the user with accurate mode prompts for the AI ​​mode of the electronic device, thereby improving the user's experience.

[0093] In an optional embodiment, lighting up a first logo body in a device logo body of an electronic device may be achieved by lighting up a first light source on the back of the first logo body.

[0094] In this embodiment, a first light source is disposed on the back of the first sign body.

[0095] In response to the first information indicating that the electronic device is in the target mode, when the first logo body in the device logo body of the electronic device needs to be illuminated, the lighting effect of the first logo body can be achieved by lighting the first light source behind the first logo body.

[0096] Taking the device logo of the electronic device logo "abcxi" as an example, assuming that the first logo is a second character combination formed by the character "a" in the logo "abcxi" and the lower half of the character "i" (i.e., removing the dot in the upper half of the character "i"), the first light source can be set on the back of the character "a" and the lower half of the character "i" in the logo "abcxi" respectively. On this basis, see Figure 5 By lighting up the first light source behind the character "a" and the first light source behind the lower half of the character "i", the character "a" and the lower half of the character "i" can be lit up, so that the visual features indicating "AI" formed by the character "a" and the lower half of the character "i" can be presented in the logo "abcxi", making it easier for users to understand that the electronic device is in AI mode.

[0097] During implementation, optionally, when it is detected that the first information represents that the electronic device is in the target mode, an indication information for instructing to light up the first light source can be sent to a controller that can be used to control the switch of the first light source, such as sending a high-level signal to the embedded controller on the mainboard to instruct the controller to light up the first light source on the back of the lower half of the character "a" and the character "i".

[0098] This embodiment achieves the effect of identifying the corresponding descriptive information of the target mode provided by the first sign body by disposing a first light source on the back of the first sign body, and when the first information indicates that the electronic device is in the target mode, lighting up the first sign body by lighting the first light source on the back of the first sign body. Based on this identification effect, the user can clearly and distinctly know that the electronic device is currently running in the target mode according to the corresponding descriptive information of the target mode presented by the first sign body, thereby overcoming the problem that the user is not clear about the meaning represented by the mode prompt of the device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0099] In an optional embodiment, the device logo of the electronic device also includes a second logo and a third logo, the second logo is in an illuminated state in the target mode and the non-target mode, and the third logo is in an unlit state in the target mode and the non-target mode; the second logo can be used to provide corresponding descriptive information for the target mode.

[0100] The description information of the target mode includes the corresponding description information of the first mark to the target mode and the corresponding description information of the second mark to the target mode.

[0101] The non-target mode is a mode other than the target mode.

[0102] In this embodiment, description information of the target mode is provided based on the collaboration between the first marker and the second marker.

[0103] Taking the target mode and the non-target mode as the AI ​​mode and the non-AI mode respectively, and the device logo as the logo "abcxi" of the electronic device as an example, the first logo can specifically include the character "a" in the logo "abcxi" and the second character combination formed by the lower half of the character "i", and the second logo includes the upper half of the character "i" in the logo "abcxi" (that is, the dot part of the "i"), so that based on the coordination of the first logo and the second logo, descriptive information of the AI ​​mode can be provided, such as the character combination "ai" formed by the first logo and the second logo that can be used to represent "AI".

[0104] The third logo may include other characters other than the character "a" and the character "i" in the logo "abcxi".

[0105] Optionally, when the operating system of the electronic device is started and running, whether it is in the target mode or the non-target mode, the second mark is in a lit state, the third mark is in a non-lit state, and the first mark is in a lit state in the target mode and in a non-target mode. In the case where the electronic device is in the target mode, the description information of the target mode formed by the first mark and the second mark in the lit state can be used to prompt the user that the electronic device is in the target mode. For example, in the AI ​​mode, the description information of the AI ​​mode provided by the lit character "a" and the lower half of the character "i" (the first mark) and the upper half of the lit character "i" (the second mark) in "abcxi", such as the lit character "ai" used to represent "AI", prompts the user that the electronic device is currently in the AI ​​mode.

[0106] This embodiment designs the states of various logos in the device logo in different modes, and when the first information represents that the electronic device is in the target mode, by providing descriptive information of the target mode based on the first logo and the second logo in the lit state, it is easy for the user to clearly and distinctly know that the electronic device is currently operating in the target mode, thereby improving the user experience.

[0107] In an optional embodiment, a second light source is disposed on the back of the second sign body, and the second sign body is in a corresponding lit or unlit state based on switch control of the second light source.

[0108] The third marking body is of a first color, the first marking body is a light-transmitting body of the first color, the second marking body is a light-transmitting body of a second color; and the first light source is a colored light source of the second color.

[0109] The first color and the second color are different colors.

[0110] Optionally, the first color is black and the second color is red.

[0111] The third marking body can specifically be a light-transmitting body or a non-light-transmitting body of the first color.

[0112] The second light source disposed on the back of the second sign body may be a non-colored light source.

[0113] This embodiment sets the first sign body as a light-transmitting body of the same color as the third sign body (i.e., the first color, such as black), and sets the first light source as a colored light source of the second color, so that in the non-target mode, the first sign body and the third sign body have the same color and state (the same color and both are in a non-lit state), and in the target mode, the first sign body and the second sign body have the same color and state (the same color and both are in a lit state). In the target mode, the description information of the target mode formed by the first sign body and the second sign body that are lit together can be used to prompt the user that the electronic device is currently in the target mode.

[0114] Take the logo "abcxi" of an electronic device as an example. For example, the lower half of the characters "a" and "i" (the first logo) are black translucent bodies with a red light source on the back, the upper half of the character "i" (the second logo) is a red translucent body with a white light source on the back, and the other characters (the third logo) other than the characters "a" and "i" are black non-translucent bodies with no light source on the back. After the operating system of the electronic device is started and running, no matter what mode it is in, the third logo is black and unlit, and the second logo is red lit. In the AI ​​mode, the first logo is red lit, and at this time, it forms an identifier "ai" for representing the "AI" mode together with the second logo in red lit state, thereby achieving the effect of prompting the user that the electronic device is in AI mode. In the non-AI mode, the first logo is black and unlit, and at this time, the first logo and the third logo have the same display effect, and only the dot of the second logo, that is, the upper half of the character "i", is red lit, indicating that the electronic device is in non-AI mode.

[0115] This embodiment designs the characteristics of color, light transmittance, backlight color, etc. of various logo bodies included in the device logo body. Different display controls can be performed on the various logo bodies in the device logo body to provide intuitive and clear mode prompts for the electronic device. Further, when the electronic device is in a target mode such as AI mode, it can accurately prompt that the current mode of the electronic device is the target mode such as AI mode, thereby overcoming the problem that the user is not clear about the meaning represented by the mode prompt of the device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0116] In an optional embodiment, the target mode is a mode of calling a target model, and the target model may be, but is not limited to, an AI model such as a large model.

[0117] In this embodiment, step 101 in the method provided in the present application, i.e., obtaining the first information, can be implemented as at least one of the following implementation modes 11) and 12):

[0118] 11) Obtaining first monitoring information obtained by monitoring the operating status of the second type processor of the electronic device.

[0119] The second type of processor includes a processor for processing based on the target model, such as a large model, and may specifically include but is not limited to a neural network processor (Neural Processing Unit, NPU) and / or a deep learning processor (Deep-Learning Processing Unit, DPU).

[0120] The electronic device also includes a first type of processor for general processing, such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), and the like.

[0121] In this implementation 11), the operation status of the second type processor of the electronic device is monitored to obtain first monitoring information. The first monitoring information may include but is not limited to change information such as usage rate, load rate and / or power of the second type processor.

[0122] 12) Obtaining second monitoring information obtained by monitoring a target application startup event of the electronic device.

[0123] The target application is an application in an electronic device that needs to call a target model (such as an AI model), such as an AI assistant, a smart transportation App (Application), etc.

[0124] In this implementation 12), the target application startup event of the electronic device is monitored to obtain second monitoring information. The second monitoring information is used to indicate whether a startup event of the target application has occurred in the electronic device.

[0125] In implementation, a target application identifier set may be preconfigured, such as a whitelist of target application identifiers, each of which is used to indicate a corresponding target application. The target application identifier may specifically include, but is not limited to, information such as the name, icon, or application number of the target application.

[0126] On this basis, the startup events of applications on electronic devices can be monitored. Whenever an application startup event is detected, the application identifier of the launched application is matched with the target application identifier in the target application identifier set to determine whether a startup event for the target application is detected.

[0127] In implementation, any one or more of the above-mentioned implementation modes 11) and 12) may be used to obtain the first information. Accordingly, the first information may include the first monitoring information and / or the second monitoring information.

[0128] After obtaining the first information through at least one of the above-mentioned implementation modes 11) and 12), it can be further determined whether the first information represents that the electronic device is in the target mode, so that when the electronic device is in the target mode, a mode prompt for the target mode of the electronic device can be implemented through subsequent processing.

[0129] Among them, if the first information includes the first monitoring information, it can be specifically determined whether the first monitoring information indicates that the second type of processor enters the use state from the unused state. If so, the first information indicates that the electronic device is in the target mode, otherwise, it indicates that the electronic device is not in the target mode.

[0130] For example, if the change information of the usage rate / load rate / power of the NPU indicates that the NPU has entered a used state from a state that has never been used, it can be determined that the electronic device has entered a mode that calls a target model from a mode that has never called an AI model or other target model, which can indicate that the electronic device is currently in the target mode.

[0131] If the second information includes the second monitoring information, whether the first information indicates that the electronic device is in the target mode can be determined by determining whether the second monitoring information indicates that a start event of the target application has occurred. If, based on a configured target application identifier set such as a target application identifier whitelist, it is determined that a start event of the target application has occurred, it can be determined that the first information indicates that the electronic device is in the target mode; otherwise, it is determined that the electronic device is not in the target mode.

[0132] If the first information includes both the first monitoring information and the second monitoring information, it can be determined that the first information indicates that the electronic device is in the target mode as long as at least one of the following conditions is met:

[0133] The first monitoring information indicates that the second-type processor enters a used state from an unused state;

[0134] The second monitoring information indicates that a startup event of a target application occurs.

[0135] This embodiment monitors the operating status of the second-class processor of the electronic device and / or monitors the start-up event of the target application, so as to obtain first information that can be used to determine the mode of the electronic device. Then, based on the first information, it can be determined whether the electronic device is in the target mode, thereby providing a data basis for the mode determination of the electronic device and the related mode prompt processing based on this.
