[0057] It should be understood that, although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used to describe various information in this article, these information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of this article, the first information may also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as the first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein can be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determination". Furthermore, as used in this article, the singular forms "one", "one" and "the" are intended to also include plural forms, unless there is an opposite indication in the context. It should be further understood that the terms "comprising" and "including" indicate that there are the described features, steps, operations, elements, components, projects, kinds, and / or groups, but do not exclude the existence, occurrence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, components, projects, kinds, and / or groups. The terms "or", "and / or", "including at least one of the following" etc. used in this application can be interpreted as inclusive, or mean any one or any combination. For example, “comprising at least one of the following: A, B, C” means “any of the following: A; B; C; A and B; A and C; B and C; A and B and C”, and for another example, “A, B or C” or “A, B and / or C” means “any of the following: A; B; C; A and B; A and C; B and C; A and B and C”. An exception to this definition will only occur when a combination of elements, functions, steps or operations are inherently mutually exclusive in some manner.

[0058] It should be understood that, although the various steps in the flowchart in the embodiment of the present application are displayed in sequence according to the indication of the arrows, these steps are not necessarily performed in sequence according to the order indicated by the arrows. Unless there is a clear explanation in this article, the execution of these steps does not have a strict order restriction, and it can be performed in other orders. Moreover, at least a portion of the steps in the figure may include a plurality of sub-steps or a plurality of stages, and these sub-steps or stages are not necessarily performed at the same time, but can be performed at different times, and their execution order is not necessarily performed in sequence, but can be performed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.

[0059] As used herein, the words "if" and "if" may be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determining" or "in response to detecting", depending on the context. Similarly, the phrases "if it is determined" or "if (stated condition or event) is detected" may be interpreted as "when it is determined" or "in response to determining" or "when detecting (stated condition or event)" or "in response to detecting (stated condition or event)", depending on the context.

[0060] It should be noted that in this article, step codes such as S10 and S20 are used for the purpose of expressing the corresponding content more clearly and concisely, and do not constitute a substantial limitation on the sequence. When implementing the step, those skilled in the art may execute S20 first and then S10, etc., but these should all be within the scope of protection of this application.

[0061] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0062] In the subsequent description, the suffixes such as "module", "component" or "unit" used to represent elements are only used to facilitate the description of the present application, and have no specific meanings. Therefore, "module", "component" or "unit" can be used in a mixed manner.

Those skilled in the art can understand that Figure 1 The structure of the mobile terminal shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation on the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or arrange the components differently.

[0066] Combine the following Figure 1 The following is a detailed introduction to the various components of the mobile terminal:

[0067] The radio frequency unit 101 can be used for receiving and sending signals during information transmission or communication. Specifically, after receiving the downlink information of the base station, it is sent to the processor 110 for processing; in addition, the uplink data is sent to the base station. Generally, the radio frequency unit 101 includes but is not limited to an antenna, at least one amplifier, a transceiver, a coupler, a low noise amplifier, a duplexer, etc. In addition, the radio frequency unit 101 can also communicate with the network and other devices through wireless communication.

[0068] WiFi is a short-range wireless transmission technology. Mobile terminals can help users send and receive emails, browse web pages, and access streaming media through WiFi module 102. It provides users with wireless broadband Internet access. Figure 1 The WiFi module 102 is shown, but it is understandable that it is not an essential component of the mobile terminal and can be omitted as needed without changing the essence of the invention.

[0069] The audio output unit 103 can convert the audio data received by the RF unit 101 or the WiFi module 102 or stored in the memory 109 into an audio signal and output it as sound when the mobile terminal 100 is in a call signal reception mode, a talk mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, a broadcast reception mode, etc. Moreover, the audio output unit 103 can also provide audio output related to a specific function performed by the mobile terminal 100 (for example, a call signal reception sound, a message reception sound, etc.).

The processed image frame can be displayed on the display unit 106. The image frame processed by the graphics processor 1041 can be stored in the memory 109 (or other storage medium) or sent via the radio frequency unit 101 or the WiFi module 102. The microphone 1042 can receive sound (audio data) via the microphone 1042 in a telephone call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, and other operating modes, and can process such sound into audio data. The processed audio (voice) data can be converted into a format output that can be sent to a mobile communication base station via the radio frequency unit 101 in the case of a telephone call mode. The microphone 1042 can implement various types of noise elimination (or suppression) algorithms to eliminate (or suppress) noise or interference generated in the process of receiving and sending audio signals.

[0071] The mobile terminal 100 also includes at least one sensor 105, such as a light sensor, a motion sensor, and other sensors. Optionally, the light sensor includes an ambient light sensor and a proximity sensor. Optionally, the ambient light sensor can adjust the brightness of the display panel 1061 according to the brightness of the ambient light, and the proximity sensor can turn off the display panel 1061 and / or the backlight when the mobile terminal 100 is moved to the ear. As a type of motion sensor, the accelerometer sensor can detect the magnitude of acceleration in all directions (generally three axes), and can detect the magnitude and direction of gravity when stationary. It can be used for applications that identify the posture of the mobile phone (such as horizontal and vertical screen switching, related games, magnetometer posture calibration), vibration recognition related functions (such as pedometer, tapping), etc.; as for other sensors that can be configured on the mobile phone, such as fingerprint sensors, pressure sensors, iris sensors, molecular sensors, gyroscopes, barometers, hygrometers, thermometers, infrared sensors, etc., they will not be repeated here.

[0073] The user input unit 107 can be used to receive input digital or character information, and to generate key signal input related to the user settings and function control of the mobile terminal. Optionally, the user input unit 107 may include a touch panel 1071 and other input devices 1072. The touch panel 1071, also known as a touch screen, can collect the user's touch operation on or near it (such as the user's operation on the touch panel 1071 or near the touch panel 1071 using any suitable object or accessory such as a finger, stylus, etc.), and drive the corresponding connection device according to a pre-set program. The touch panel 1071 may include two parts: a touch detection device and a touch controller. Optionally, the touch detection device detects the user's touch orientation, detects the signal brought by the touch operation, and transmits the signal to the touch controller; the touch controller receives the touch information from the touch detection device, converts it into the touch point coordinates, and then sends it to the processor 110, and can receive and execute the command sent by the processor 110. In addition, the touch panel 1071 can be implemented in various types such as resistive, capacitive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave. In addition to the touch panel 1071, the user input unit 107 may further include other input devices 1072. Optionally, the other input devices 1072 may include, but are not limited to, one or more of a physical keyboard, a function key (such as a volume control key, a switch key, etc.), a trackball, a mouse, a joystick, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0074] Optionally, the touch panel 1071 may cover the display panel 1061. When the touch panel 1071 detects a touch operation on or near it, it transmits the information to the processor 110 to determine the type of touch event. Then, the processor 110 provides corresponding visual output on the display panel 1061 according to the type of touch event. Figure 1 In the figure, the touch panel 1071 and the display panel 1061 are used as two independent components to implement the input and output functions of the mobile terminal. However, in some embodiments, the touch panel 1071 and the display panel 1061 can be integrated to implement the input and output functions of the mobile terminal, which is not limited here.

[0076] The memory 109 can be used to store software programs and various data. The memory 109 can mainly include a program storage area and a data storage area. Optionally, the program storage area can store an operating system, an application required for at least one function (such as a sound playback function, an image playback function, etc.), etc.; the data storage area can store data created according to the use of the mobile phone (such as audio data, a phone book, etc.), etc. In addition, the memory 109 can include a high-speed random access memory, and can also include a non-volatile memory, such as at least one disk storage device, a flash memory device, or other volatile solid-state storage devices.

[0077] The processor 110 is the control center of the mobile terminal. It uses various interfaces and lines to connect various parts of the entire mobile terminal. It executes various functions of the mobile terminal and processes data by running or executing software programs and / or modules stored in the memory 109, and calling data stored in the memory 109, so as to monitor the mobile terminal as a whole. The processor 110 may include one or more processing units; preferably, the processor 110 may integrate an application processor and a modem processor. Optionally, the application processor mainly processes the operating system, user interface, and application programs, and the modem processor mainly processes wireless communications. It is understandable that the above-mentioned modem processor may not be integrated into the processor 110.

[0078] The mobile terminal 100 may also include a power supply 111 (such as a battery) for supplying power to various components. Preferably, the power supply 111 may be logically connected to the processor 110 via a power management system, thereby implementing functions such as managing charging, discharging, and power consumption management through the power management system.

If the user agrees to set the application in the screenshot page as a combined application, the chat application, video application, and navigation application in the screenshot page are set as a combined application; or, after taking a screenshot, the user clicks the "Add combined application" option from the setting interface, or clicks the "Add combined application" option from the function bar on the side, so as to set the chat application, video application, and navigation application in the screenshot page as a combined application. When the user is using the target terminal and wants to set all currently running applications as combined applications, he only needs to open the application manager to view all running applications and take screenshots to set the application in the screenshot page as a combined application, thereby simplifying the steps of setting the combined application and improving the user experience.

[0108] Optionally, the target terminal has started a chat application, a video application, and a navigation application, and the chat application, video application, and navigation application are all displayed in small windows. At this time, a screenshot operation is performed, and the screenshot page includes the chat application, video application, and navigation application. Similarly, the chat application, video application, and navigation application in the screenshot page can be set as a combined application, and the setting method will not be described in detail.

[0109] Optionally, several application icons are displayed on the desktop of the target terminal. At this time, a screenshot of the desktop is taken. The screenshot page contains several application icons. The screenshot page is cropped. The cropped screenshot page includes application icons for chat applications, video applications, and navigation applications. Similarly, the chat application, video application, and navigation application in the screenshot page can be set as a combined application, and the setting method will not be described in detail.

[0110] Optionally, satisfying the first condition may include detecting that an application switching frequency on the target terminal is higher than a preset threshold.

[0111] Optionally, when it is detected that the application switching frequency on the target terminal is higher than a preset threshold, it indicates that the user is switching among multiple current applications and there is a need to combine applications.

[0112] Optionally, when the user frequently switches between the recording software and the translation software in the target terminal, and the switching frequency is higher than a preset threshold (once per minute), the frequently switched recording software and translation software are set as a combined application, and feedback is given to the user after the setting is completed; or, the user is prompted whether to set the frequently switched recording software and translation software as a combined application. If the user agrees, the recording software and translation software are set as a combined application.

[0113] Optionally, satisfying the first condition may include detecting a second operation performed on the combined application editing page, wherein the second operation may be checking / boxing the combined application, dragging an application to be combined to another application to be combined, and the like.

[0114] Optionally, the combined application editing page may include a recommended combined application list, and a combined application item in the recommended combined application list may be selected to set an application in the combined application item as a combined application.

[0115] Optionally, the application display form in the combined application editing page includes at least one of the following:

[0116] Display according to preset priority;

[0117] The display is performed based on the first information of the target terminal.

[0118] Optionally, applications with higher priorities may be displayed preferentially in the combined application editing page.

[0119] Optionally, the basis for evaluating the priority may include, but is not limited to: user feedback, application usage frequency, user growth trend, user retention rate, memory and CPU requirements, battery consumption, response speed, user usage habits, current usage scenarios, etc.

[0120] Optionally, the priority of the application may be evaluated by the frequency of application use. The higher the frequency of application use, the higher the priority of the application, and the application is preferentially displayed in the combined application editing page.

[0121] Optionally, the application display form in the combined application editing page may also be displayed based on the first information of the target terminal.

[0122] Optionally, the first information of the target terminal includes at least one of the target application type, user habits, application manufacturer-related data, historical sharing content, historical forwarding content, local log records, cloud log records, and specific signs in the application.

[0123] Optionally, the target application type may be analyzed, and if the target application type is suitable for combination, the application suitable for combination may be displayed preferentially. For example, if a chat application and a translation application are suitable for combination, the chat application and the translation application may be displayed preferentially in the combined application editing page.

[0124] Optionally, the user's habits may be analyzed, and the applications that the user is accustomed to using may be displayed preferentially. For example, if the user is accustomed to using a chat application, the chat application may be displayed preferentially. If the user is accustomed to using an office application and a chat application in combination, the office application and the chat application may be displayed preferentially in the combined application editing page.

[0125] Optionally, the data related to the application manufacturer can be analyzed to obtain user feedback, user usage frequency, user retention rate, and application manufacturers / users' recommended applications for combined use, so as to analyze whether the application can be displayed preferentially, and if so, what application is suitable for combined use. For example, by analyzing the data related to the application manufacturer of shopping application A, it can be analyzed that the application has good user feedback, high user usage frequency, high user retention rate, and other users recommend the application B for combined use, so shopping application A and shopping application B can be displayed preferentially in the combined application editing page.

[0126] Optionally, the user's historical shared applications and / or historical forwarded content may be analyzed. For example, if the user shares or forwards the content of shopping application A and the content of video application B to social application C, shopping application A, video application B, and social application C may be displayed preferentially in the combined application editing page.

[0127] Optionally, the local log records can be analyzed, and the display order of each application in the combined application editing interface can be determined based on the analysis results. For example, by analyzing the local log records, the startup time, usage time, crash records, and user interaction events of each application in the target terminal can be obtained. The user activity, application performance, error reports, user behavior, etc. for different applications can also be analyzed. If application A has a longer usage time and fewer crash records, application A can be displayed first in the combined application editing page.

[0128] Optionally, the cloud log records can be analyzed to obtain the startup time, usage time, crash records, and user interaction events of each application in the corresponding terminal for all users. The user activity, application performance, error reports, user behavior, etc. for different applications can also be analyzed. If the user activity of application A is higher and the overall crash records are fewer, application A can be displayed preferentially in the combined application editing page.

[0129] Optionally, specific flags in the application may be analyzed. The specific flags in the application may be function flags, user feedback flags, performance flags, etc. of the application. By analyzing the specific flags, the display order of the applications in the combined application editing page may be determined.

[0130] Optionally, currently opened applications or frequently switched applications may be preferentially displayed in the combined application editing interface.

[0131] Step S20: In response to satisfying the second condition, starting the combined application.

[0132] Optionally, satisfying the second condition includes at least one of the following:

[0133] Acquiring a third operation on at least one icon in the combined application;

[0134] A fourth operation on the combination list of the target application is obtained.

[0135] Optionally, the third operation may be long pressing, double clicking, checking, box selecting, dragging, etc.

[0136] Optionally, assuming that the combined application is a chat application and a navigation application, the third operation can be performed on any one of the chat application and the navigation application, so that the chat application and the navigation application can be opened at the same time.

[0137] Optionally, assuming that the combined application is a chat application and a navigation application, you can perform operations such as long pressing, double-clicking, checking, boxing, and dragging on any of the chat application and the navigation application until the operation panel pops up. Select the "Open application simultaneously" option in the operation panel to open the chat application and the navigation application at the same time. For details, refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 It is a schematic diagram of opening a combined application in an embodiment of the present application.

[0138] Optionally, if an application has multiple combined applications, for example, the combined application of a chat application can be a navigation application or a music application, then long press, double click, check, box, drag, etc. are performed on the chat application until an operation panel pops up, and a combination list (such as chat application-navigation application, chat application-music application) is displayed in the operation panel. The user selects an item in the combination list that needs to be opened (such as chat application-music application) to open the combined application. Among them, the fourth operation can be long press, double click, check, box, drag, etc.

[0139] Aiming at the scenario where multiple applications are often used together to perform tasks, the present application proposes a solution for setting multiple applications used simultaneously as a combined application so that the combined applications can be opened simultaneously.

[0141] Reference Figure 8 , Figure 8 is a flowchart of a startup method according to the second embodiment, wherein step S20, in response to satisfying the second condition, starts the combined application and then includes S31 to S32:

[0142] Step S31, in response to satisfying the third condition, opening a layout editing page;

[0143] Optionally, satisfying the third condition includes detecting that the combined application is started for the first time, and / or acquiring a layout editing instruction of the combined application.

[0144] Optionally, if it is detected that the combined application (chat application-music application) is started for the first time, the layout editing page is opened for the user to edit.

[0145] Optionally, if a layout editing instruction is obtained (for example, clicking on the "layout editing" option, gesture operation, voice operation, etc.), the layout editing page is opened for the user to edit.

[0146] If the third condition is that the combined application is detected to be started for the first time, the first display mode of the layout editing page includes at least one of the following:

[0147] Perform typeset display through a first preset model;

[0148] The layout and display are performed based on at least one of the text size, application type, usage convenience, historical habits, and usage scenarios of the combined application.

[0149] Optionally, the combined application may be analyzed using a pre-trained model to obtain the most suitable layout for the combined application.

[0150] In addition, the layout and display may be performed in combination with at least one of the text size, application type, usage convenience of target users, historical habits, and usage scenarios of the combined application.

[0151] Optionally, if the text in application A is large, the layout of application A accounts for a larger proportion. In another scenario, if application A is a navigation type and application B is a chat type, application B can be displayed in a small window and application A can be displayed in a minimum display state.

[0152] Optionally, if application A is of a chat type and application B is of a video type, application B may be displayed in full screen, and application A may be displayed in a small window and next to the user's dominant hand.

[0153] Optionally, if the user is used to displaying application A and application B in a 3:7 display area, application A and application B are displayed according to the user's historical habit.

[0154] Optionally, if application A is of navigation type and application B is of chat type, if the user is driving, the display interface of application A is larger than the display interface of application B; if the user is parking, the display interface of application A is smaller than the display interface of application B.

[0155] Step S32: Edit the layout of the combined application based on the layout editing page.

[0156] Reference Fig. 9 , Fig. 9 It is a schematic diagram of layout editing of a combined application in an embodiment of the present application.

[0157] like Fig. 9 As shown, you can adjust the window size of the top-bottom and left-right layout of the page by pressing the drag bar, you can also click and drag the small window to the side to display it as a floating panel, and you can also click the play button of the small window on the page to set the small window to picture-in-picture mode.

[0158] After editing the layout of the composite application, the edited layout can be saved.

[0159] Reference Fig.10 , Fig.10 Schematic diagram of saving the layout in the embodiment of the present application. Fig.10 As shown, after adjusting the layout of each application, click Save this split-screen view as the default layout view when opening the combined application simultaneously.

[0160] Reference Fig.11 , Fig.11 is a schematic diagram of the default layout of the combined application in the embodiment of the present application, Fig.11 The default layout view when opening a composite app for synchronization.

[0161] Aiming at the scenario where multiple applications are often used together to perform tasks, this application proposes a solution that sets multiple applications used simultaneously as a combined application, and can open the combined application simultaneously in a set split-screen layout.

[0162] At present, the operation interface for combining multiple applications is in the settings interface, which is far away from the desktop application, and the operation and modification are not convenient enough. To this end, this application solves the problem that when using multiple applications at the same time to complete a task in a multi-tasking scenario, the user needs to open several applications one by one each time, and then set and adjust the layout position of each application one by one, resulting in many steps for multi-application startup and split-screen operation in a multi-tasking scenario.

[0163] This embodiment starts multiple applications at one time and directly displays them in a set layout, thereby reducing user operation steps and improving user experience.

[0164] Third embodiment

[0167] Optionally, this embodiment is applicable to a smart terminal with an inner screen and an outer screen. The smart terminal with an inner screen and an outer screen can switch from the outer screen to the inner screen, or from the inner screen to the outer screen. In this embodiment, taking the switching from the inner screen to the outer screen as an example, in response to the outer screen switching instruction, the combined application displayed on the inner screen is switched to the outer screen for display.

[0168] Optionally, this embodiment may also be applicable to a double-folding or triple-folding smart terminal having an inner screen and an outer screen.

[0169] Optionally, the first application in the combined application may be selected based on application type, user usage habits, user usage frequency, usage scenario, etc.

[0170] Optionally, if the applications in the combined application are respectively of video type, chat type and music type, the video type application can be set as the first application, the first application can be set to full screen state, and other applications can be set to small window state.

[0171] Optionally, if the applications in the combined application are respectively a chat type that the user is accustomed to using in full screen and a music type that the user is not accustomed to using in full screen, the chat type application can be set as the first application, the first application can be set to full screen mode, and other applications can be set to small window mode.

[0172] Optionally, if the applications in the combined application are respectively a chat type that is used more frequently by users and a translation type that is used less frequently by users, the chat type application can be set as the first application, the first application can be set to full screen mode, and other applications can be set to small window mode.

[0173] Optionally, if the applications in the combined application are of navigation type and chat type respectively, if the user is driving, the navigation type application can be set as the first application; if the user is parking, the chat type application can be set as the first application, and then the first application can be set to full screen state, and other applications can be set to small window state.

[0174] Step S34: if the number of the other applications is greater than a preset number, the other applications in the small window state are integrated into the same window.

[0175] Reference Fig.13 , Fig.13 is a schematic diagram of adjusting the combined application view in response to an external screen switching instruction in an embodiment of the present application,

[0176] like Fig.13 As shown, when there are more than two small windows, all application small windows are integrated into one window, and the pages are switched by sliding the paging indicator at the bottom.

[0180] Optionally, the second application may be an application that is in an overlapping state and is placed above other applications.

[0181] Step S36, if the user's line of sight is not focused on the second application within a preset first time, increasing the transparency of the second application;

[0182] Optionally, if the combined application includes a video application and a chat application, and the chat application overlaps with the video application and is placed above the video application, if the user's line of sight is not focused on the chat application within 10 minutes, the transparency of the chat application is increased to enable the user to better use the video application; alternatively, if the frequency of the user's line of sight focusing on the chat application is less than 2 times within 10 minutes, the transparency of the chat application is increased to enable the user to better use the video application.

[0183] Step S37: if the user's line of sight is focused on the second application within a preset second time, the transparency of the second application is lowered.

[0184] Optionally, the combined application includes a video application and a chat application, and the chat application overlaps with the video application and is placed above the video application. If the user has increased the transparency of the chat application and the user's line of sight is focused on the chat application within 10 minutes, the transparency of the chat application is lowered to enable the user to better use the chat application; alternatively, if the frequency of the user's line of sight focusing on the chat application is more than 2 times within 10 minutes, the transparency of the chat application is lowered to enable the user to better use the chat application.
