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. The above-mentioned wireless communications may use any communication standard or protocol, including but not limited to GSM (Global System of Mobile communication), GPRS (General Packet Radio Service), CDMA2000 (Code Division Multiple Access 2000), WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access), TD-SCDMA (Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access), FDD-LTE (Frequency Division Duplexing- Long Term Evolution), TDD-LTE (Time Division Duplexing- Long Term Evolution) and 5G, etc.

[0062] WiFi is a short-range wireless transmission technology. The smart terminal can help users send and receive emails, browse web pages, and access streaming media through the 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 a necessary component of the smart terminal and can be omitted as needed without changing the essence of the invention.

[0063] 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 smart terminal 100 is in a call signal receiving mode, a call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, a broadcast receiving mode, etc. Moreover, the audio output unit 103 can also provide audio output related to a specific function performed by the smart terminal 100 (for example, a call signal receiving sound, a message receiving sound, etc.). The audio output unit 103 may include a speaker, a buzzer, etc.

[0064] The A / V input unit 104 is used to receive audio or video signals. The A / V input unit 104 may include a graphics processor (GPU) 1041 and a microphone 1042, and the graphics processor 1041 processes the image data of a static picture or video obtained by an image capture device (such as a camera) in a video capture mode or an image capture mode. 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 an intelligent 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.

[0065] The smart 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 smart terminal 100 is close 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 also 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.

[0066] The display unit 106 is used to display information input by the user or information provided to the user. The display unit 106 may include a display panel 1061, which may be configured in the form of a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), or the like.

[0067] The user input unit 107 can be used to receive input digital or character information, and generate key signal input related to the user settings and function control of the intelligent 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 also 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.

[0068] 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 realize the input and output functions of the smart terminal. However, in some embodiments, the touch panel 1071 and the display panel 1061 can be integrated to realize the input and output functions of the smart terminal, which is not limited here.

[0069] The interface unit 108 is used as an interface through which at least one external device can be connected to the smart terminal 100. For example, the external device may include a wired or wireless headset port, an external power supply (or battery charger) port, a wired or wireless data port, a memory card port, a port for connecting a device with an identification module, an audio input / output (I / O) port, a video I / O port, a headphone port, etc. The interface unit 108 may be used to receive input (e.g., data information, power, etc.) from an external device and transmit the received input to one or more elements within the smart terminal 100 or may be used to transmit data between the smart terminal 100 and an external device.

[0070] 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.

[0071] The processor 110 is the control center of the smart terminal. It uses various interfaces and lines to connect various parts of the entire smart terminal. It executes various functions of the smart 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 smart 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.

[0072] The intelligent terminal 100 may further 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 charging, discharging, and power consumption management through the power management system.

[0073] although Figure 1 Not shown, the smart terminal 100 may also include a Bluetooth module, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0074] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the communication network system on which the smart terminal of the present application is based is described below.

[0075] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A communication network system architecture diagram is provided for an embodiment of the present application. The communication network system is an LTE system of universal intelligent communication technology. The LTE system includes a UE (User Equipment) 201, an E-UTRAN (Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network) 202, an EPC (Evolved Packet Core) 203 and an operator's IP service 204, which are connected in sequence.

[0076] Optionally, UE201 may be the above-mentioned terminal 100, which will not be described in detail here.

[0077] E-UTRAN 202 includes eNodeB 2021 and other eNodeBs 2022 , etc. Optionally, eNodeB 2021 may be connected to other eNodeBs 2022 via a backhaul (eg, an X2 interface), and eNodeB 2021 is connected to EPC 203 , and eNodeB 2021 may provide UE 201 with access to EPC 203 .

[0078] EPC203 may include MME (Mobility Management Entity) 2031, HSS (Home Subscriber Server) 2032, other MMEs 2033, SGW (Serving GateWay) 2034, PGW (PDN Gate Way) 2035, and PCRF (Policy and Charging Rules Function) 2036. Optionally, MME 2031 is a control node that processes signaling between UE 201 and EPC 203, and provides bearer and connection management. HSS 2032 is used to provide some registers to manage functions such as a home location register (not shown in the figure), and store some user-specific information such as service features and data rates. All user data can be sent through SGW2034. PGW2035 can provide IP address allocation and other functions for UE 201. PCRF2036 is the policy and charging control policy decision point for service data flow and IP bearer resources. It selects and provides available policy and charging control decisions for the policy and charging execution function unit (not shown in the figure).

[0079] The IP service 204 may include the Internet, an intranet, an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) or other IP services.

[0080] Although the above introduction takes the LTE system as an example, those skilled in the art should know that the present application is not only applicable to the LTE system, but also to other wireless communication systems, such as GSM, CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, 5G and future new network systems (such as 6G), etc., without limitation here.

[0081] Based on the above-mentioned smart terminal hardware structure and communication network system, various embodiments of the present application are proposed.

[0082] With the popularization of smart terminals and the development of smart Internet, smart terminals have gradually become a part of people's lives and work. In particular, smart terminals with folding screens (hereinafter referred to as folding screens or smart terminals) have greatly improved the user experience. Usually, the folding screen will include at least 2 split screens. Users can use different applications through different split screens of the folding screen, or use the same application through multiple split screens (large screen display).

[0083] In some implementations, when a user uses different applications through different split screens of the folding screen, a split screen operation is usually required, such as Figure 3 As shown, after the user unfolds the foldable screen (the second split screen is the newly unfolded split screen), the foldable screen will display the application originally displayed in the first split screen through the first split screen and the second split screen. If the user needs to display different applications in the first split screen and the second split screen, the user can trigger the sidebar or the bottom Dock bar, find the application to be displayed, and trigger the split screen. Alternatively, after the user unfolds the foldable screen (the second split screen is the newly unfolded split screen), the user can trigger the split screen through a pre-defined split screen gesture (for example, two fingers or one finger, swipe down from the top of the screen to split it in two).

[0084] However, the above method of triggering split screen has poor usability and is prone to accidental touches, which affects the user experience.

[0085] In order to solve the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a display method, a smart terminal and a storage medium, which associate the triggering of split screen with the action of unfolding the folding screen. When the user unfolds the folding screen, the split screen can be triggered quickly, thereby improving the user experience.

[0086] The technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following optional embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0087] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the display method shown in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 .like Figure 4 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0088] S401. In response to an expansion operation, display a first interface on a newly expanded split screen.

[0089] The execution subject of the embodiment of the present application may be a smart terminal, or an application control device set in the smart terminal. Optionally, the application control device may be implemented by software, or by a combination of software and hardware, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present application.

[0090] Take the folding screen with two split screens as an example. Figure 5 As shown, when the smart terminal responds to the user's unfolding operation on the folding screen, the first interface is displayed on the newly unfolded split screen. Before the folding screen is unfolded, it is in a folded state and is displayed only through the first split screen. It should be understood that the first page is displayed in the first split screen, and the first page can be any page, for example, the page of application X, the desktop page of the smart terminal, etc., and this embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0091] like Figure 5 As shown, the second split screen (the newly expanded split screen) displays a first interface, and the first interface includes multiple applications (icons). The application may include any application installed in the smart terminal.

[0092] Optionally, the multiple applications included in the first interface may display applications that are frequently used by the user first, so as to facilitate quick search by the user. For example, applications that are frequently used by the user may be displayed in the first row or at the bottom; applications that are frequently used by the user may be displayed in the form of large icons, etc.

[0093] Optionally, in the first interface, the application can be displayed at any position of the first interface, for example, in the upper middle position of the first interface, at the bottom of the first interface, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0094] It should be understood that when the second split screen displays the first interface, the first split screen continues to display the first page unchanged.

[0095] S402: within a preset time period, in response to an operation on an application icon in the first interface, display a target application page on a newly expanded split screen, and the current split screen continues to display the first page.

[0096] After displaying the first interface, the smart terminal can start the timer and determine whether the user's operation on the application icon in the first interface is received within the timer duration (preset duration). Among them, the duration of the timer can be set based on actual needs, for example, 0.5 seconds, 1 second, 1.5 seconds, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. Optionally, the duration of the timer can also be adjusted based on the age of the user using the smart terminal. For example, when the user is an elderly person, the duration of the timer can be 1.5 seconds, and when the user is a young person, the duration of the timer can be 1 second, etc. It is understandable that the smart terminal can determine the user's age based on the user's registration information in the smart terminal.

[0097] During the timer duration, if the user operates any application icon (for example, click operation, voice selection operation, etc.), the smart terminal can determine that the user wants to use other applications in the expanded second split screen by expanding the folding screen. The smart terminal can use the application selected by the user as the target application, and open and display the page of the target application in the second split screen, while keeping the first page displayed in the first split screen (current split screen) to quickly complete the split screen operation. For example, Figure 6 As shown, if the user clicks on application D in the first interface within the duration of the timer, the smart terminal can display the page of application D in the second split screen and keep the page of application X originally displayed in the first split screen.

[0098] During the timer duration, if the user operates any application icon, the smart terminal can determine that the user wants to use the application in the current first split screen on the large screen by expanding the folding screen. Then the smart terminal can expand the first page displayed in the current first split screen and display the first page through the first split screen and the second split screen. Figure 7 As shown, if the user clicks on any application in the first interface within the timer duration, the smart terminal can expand the page of application X originally displayed in the first split screen, and use the first split screen and the second split screen to jointly display the page of application X.

[0099] The display method provided in the embodiment of the present application displays the first interface on the newly expanded split screen in response to the expansion operation; within the preset time length, in response to the operation of the application icon in the first interface, the target application page is displayed on the newly expanded split screen, and the current split screen continues to display the first page. The user's expansion operation on the folding screen is associated with the split screen, and potential split screen options are provided when the user expands the folding screen. When the user needs to split the screen, the user only needs to simply click on the application that needs to be split to quickly trigger the split screen. The probability of false touch is low, which effectively improves the user's split screen experience. At the same time, when the user does not want to use the split screen, he only needs to wait for a very short time, without additional operation, and the user's purpose of using the large screen can be achieved, and the user experience is better.

[0100] Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the display method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 .like Figure 8 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0101] S801: If no operation on the first interface is received within a preset time period, the display area of ​​the first page and / or the second page is expanded.

[0102] In the embodiment of the present application, the folding screen includes at least 3 split screens. Taking the folding screen including 3 split screens as an example, when the newly unfolded split screen is the third split screen, if the user selects a target application in the first interface displayed in the third split screen within a preset time, the page of the target application is displayed in the third split screen, and the first split screen and the second split screen keep the original display pages. Figure 4 The embodiments shown are similar and will not be described again here.

[0103] Within the preset time, no user operation on the first interface is received. If the first split screen and the second split screen display the same page, the display area of ​​the page is expanded to the third split screen to provide a large-screen display for the user.

[0104] If the first split screen and the second split screen display different pages, the display area of ​​the first page displayed on the first split screen and / or the second page displayed on the second split screen may be expanded.

[0105] In a possible implementation, the smart terminal may expand the display area of ​​the first page and the second page to display the first page and the second page together through the first split screen, the second split screen, and the third split screen. Fig. 9As shown, if the user does not select an application in the first interface displayed in the third split screen, the smart terminal can expand the display area of ​​the first page and the second page. For example, the first page is displayed through the first split screen and part of the second split screen, and the second page is displayed through part of the second split screen and the third split screen.

[0106] In a possible implementation, the smart terminal may expand the display area of ​​the first page so that the first page is displayed through two adjacent split screens, and the second page is displayed through another split screen. For example, the first page is displayed through the first split screen and the second split screen, and the second page is displayed through the third split screen. Alternatively, the first page is displayed through the second split screen and the third split screen, and the second page is displayed through the first split screen.

[0107] In a possible implementation, the smart terminal may expand the display area of ​​the second page so that the second page is displayed through two adjacent split screens, and the first page is displayed through another split screen. For example, the second page is displayed through the first split screen and the second split screen, and the first page is displayed through the third split screen. Alternatively, the first page is displayed through the first split screen, and the second page is displayed through the second split screen and the third split screen.

[0108] Optionally, to further enhance the user experience, the smart terminal may also expand the display area of ​​the first page displayed in the first split screen and / or the second page displayed in the second split screen based on the user's opinion, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0109] For example, the smart terminal may display a first message; the first message is used to prompt the user to select a page to be expanded; in response to an operation on the first message, the display area of ​​the first page and / or the second page is expanded.

[0110] Optionally, the first message may include text content and corresponding controls. For example, the text content is "Please select the page to be expanded", and the controls may include three controls: "First page", "Second page", and "First page + second page". The smart terminal may determine the page to be expanded in response to the user's operation on any control, and expand the relevant page. The expansion method of the smart terminal for the relevant page is similar to the expansion method in the aforementioned embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0111] Fig.10 Schematic diagram of the display method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 3 ,like Fig.10 As shown, including:

[0112] S1001. In response to a folding operation on a target split screen, close the target page, or switch the target page to the background.

[0113] Optionally, when different split screens display different pages, the target page may be the page displayed in the target split screen. When the smart terminal determines that the target split screen is folded by the user, the page displayed in the target split screen is switched to the background, or closed. For example, the first split screen displays a first page, and the second split screen displays a second page. When the smart terminal determines that the user has folded the second split screen, the second page displayed in the second split screen is switched to the background, or the second page is closed.

[0114] Optionally, when different split screens display different pages, the target page may also be a page selected by the user. When the smart terminal determines the target split screen that the user folds, in response to the folding operation on the target split screen, a second message is displayed; in response to the operation on the second message, a first target page that needs to be closed or switched to the background is determined; the first target page is closed or switched to the background, and the pages that are not closed or switched to the background are displayed in the remaining split screens.

[0115] For example, the first split screen displays a first page, and the second split screen displays a second page. When the smart terminal determines that the user has folded the second split screen, the smart terminal can display a second message in the first split screen, and the second message is used to prompt the user to select the target page. Optionally, the second message may include text content and corresponding controls. For example, the text content is "Please select the page to be closed", and the control may include two controls, "First Page" and "Second Page". The smart terminal can determine the page that needs to be closed in response to the user's operation on any control. For example, if the user chooses to close the first page, the smart terminal can display the second page in the first split screen, switch the first page to the background, or close the first page. If the user chooses to close the second page, the smart terminal switches the second page to the background, or closes the second page. Keep the original display of the first page in the first split screen.

[0116] Optionally, when at least two split screens display the same page together, the smart terminal responds to a folding operation on the target split screen to determine whether the target split screen displays a second target page together with the other split screens; if not, close the second target page or switch the second target page to the background; if so, display the second target page in the other unfolded split screens.

[0117] For example, the first split screen displays the first page, and the second split screen and the third split screen display the second page together. If the smart terminal determines that the target split screen that the user folds is the third split screen, since the third split screen and the second split screen display the second page together, the smart terminal can display the second page in the second split screen, and keep displaying the original first page in the first split screen. If the smart terminal determines that the target split screen that the user folds is the first split screen, since the first split screen displays the first page alone, the smart terminal can close the first page, or switch the first page to the background.

[0118] Optionally, when at least two split screens display the same page together, the smart terminal responds to the folding operation on the target split screen by closing the page displayed in the target split screen, or switching the page displayed in the target split screen to the background. For example, the first split screen displays the first page, and the second split screen and the third split screen display the second page together. If the smart terminal determines that the target split screen folded by the user is the third split screen, since the third split screen and the second split screen display the second page together, the smart terminal can close the second page, or switch the second page to the background, and display the first page in the first split screen and the second split screen together.
