Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of terminals, and more particularly, to a terminal desktop display method, a computer-readable storage medium, and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] In existing terminal systems, applications are generally launched by performing corresponding operations on application icons. Therefore, on the interactive interface (i.e., the desktop) of the terminal system, application icons corresponding to various applications are displayed. However, after a large number of applications are installed in the terminal system, the desktop becomes extremely crowded.

[0003] In response to this, the existing solution is to classify application icons and display application icons of the same category in a folder, thereby reducing the number of application icons displayed on the desktop.

[0004] Meanwhile, in existing terminal systems, notification messages and application messages are managed by means of notifications. Specifically, users can be reminded to pay attention to relevant notification messages and / or application messages by enabling or disabling notification permissions. However, existing notifications appear in the notification bar, and the display area of the notification bar is limited, and all notifications may not be displayed. Moreover, the notifications in the notification bar are not classified and are very messy, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0005] In addition, in many cases, when a user launches an application, the user may not want to use all the functions of the application, but may only want to use some simple functions of the application, or may only want to obtain some information. If an application can only be launched in one way, it will result in relatively high power consumption and more performance loss. Summary of the Invention

[0043] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the terminal desktop display method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] In the following, example embodiments will be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the example embodiments may be embodied in different forms and the present application should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. The purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the present application more thorough and complete, and to enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the scope of the present application.

[0045] Without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. As used herein, terms such as "at least one", "and / or" include any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0046] It should be understood that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application. Although the terms "first", "second", etc. are used herein to describe elements (e.g., weighted fusion), these elements are not limited to these terms, and these terms do not denote any order, quantity or importance, but are only used for distinction. For example, without departing from the scope of the present application, some operations among the first operation to the twelfth operation may be interchanged with each other, and the first type of application and the second type of application may be interchanged with each other, and so on.

[0047] In addition, as used herein, the singular forms "a" and "the" are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Depending on the context, the terms "if", "in response to..." etc. used herein may be interpreted as "during...", or "when...". It will also be understood that the term "comprising" used in this specification specifies the presence of a particular feature, entity, step, operation, element and / or component, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, entities, steps, operations, elements, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0048] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. It will also be understood that terms such as those defined in a common dictionary should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and the present application, and will not be interpreted as having an idealized or overly formal meaning unless expressly so defined herein.

[0049] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for displaying a terminal desktop, as Figure 1 shown, including the steps of: S1, obtaining and displaying a card component of an application, where the card component includes at least one function control of the application; S2, in response to a first operation on the card component, displaying a first application interface of the application, where the number of function controls included in the first application interface is greater than the number of function controls included in the card component; and S3, in response to a second operation on the card component or in response to a third operation on the first application interface, displaying a second application interface of the application, where the number of function controls included in the second application interface is greater than the number of function controls included in the first application interface, where each function control, in response to user input, invokes at least one function of the application.

[0050] The method for displaying a terminal desktop provided by the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a terminal system (for example, a mobile terminal system), so as to optimize the interaction interface of the terminal system, provide convenience for users, improve the user experience, and minimize the power consumption and performance loss of the terminal system as much as possible.

[0051] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the function control refers to an interaction interface that can receive user operations (for example, user input) to trigger and invoke at least one function of the application. It should be understood that the functions of the application may include providing or displaying related other function controls (for example, sub-function controls).

[0052] The card component, the first application interface, and the second application interface may be defined and implemented by a developer of the application according to user requirements, terminal system requirements, etc. during the development stage of the application or after the application is developed, and may be bound to the application or embedded in the application. When the application is being installed or has been installed in the terminal system, the terminal system may interact with the application to obtain the card component, the first application interface, and the second application interface corresponding to the application.

[0053] In step S1, the terminal system may interact with an application that is being installed or has been installed in the terminal system to obtain the card component of the application and display the card component on the interaction interface (i.e., the desktop) of the terminal system.

[0054] As Figure 2As shown, the card component includes at least one function control of the application, that is, the card component visually displays at least one function control of the application (for example, function control 1). Without performing additional operations on the card component, the user can interact with the application corresponding to the card component through the at least one function control of the card component (for example, function control 1), and can trigger and call the corresponding functions of the application.

[0055] That is to say, the card component described in the embodiments of the present application can actually be understood as a simple mode of the application corresponding to it. The user can directly interact with the application corresponding to the card component through the card component, trigger and call the brief or key functions of the application, without performing additional operations on the card component.

[0056] In step S2, if the user performs a first operation on the card component, the terminal system calls and displays the first application interface of the application corresponding to the card component.

[0057] As Figure 2 shown, for the same application, the number of function controls included in the first application interface is more than the number of function controls included in the card component. That is, the first application interface visually displays multiple (at least two) function controls of the application corresponding to it (for example, function control 1 and function control 2). Without performing additional operations on the first application interface, the user can directly interact with the application corresponding to the first application interface through each function control of the first application interface (for example, function control 1 and function control 2), and can trigger and call the corresponding functions of the application.

[0058] That is to say, compared with the card component, the first application interface can be understood as a more complex mode of the application corresponding to it. The user can directly interact with the application corresponding to the first application interface through the first application interface, trigger and call more functions of the application, without performing additional operations on the first application interface.

[0059] However, it should be understood that the first application interface may include some function controls of the application corresponding to it and can implement some functions of the application. Thus, in the case where the user only needs to use some functions of the application, there is no need to start all the functions of the application, which can reduce the resource occupancy of the terminal system, improve system performance, and reduce the power consumption and performance loss of the terminal system.

[0060] Here, the first operation may be a single - click operation on the card - like component. For example, according to the functions of the terminal, a single - click operation on the card - like component can be performed through an input device such as a touch end (such as a finger, a stylus), or a mouse. The single - click operation may be a single - click operation with a duration less than a first predetermined duration (such as 1 second). The specific value of the first predetermined duration can be set as needed, and the present application does not specifically limit this.

[0061] In step S3, if the user performs a second operation on the card - like component or a third operation on the first application interface corresponding to the card - like component, the terminal system calls and displays the second application interface of the application corresponding to the card - like component.

[0062] As Figure 3 shown, for the same application, the number of function controls included in the second application interface is more than the number of function controls included in the card - like component and the number of function controls included in the first application interface. That is, the second application interface intuitively displays more function controls of the application it corresponds to (for example, function control 1, function control 2, function control 3, function control 4). Without performing additional operations on the second application interface, the user can directly interact with the application corresponding to it through each function control of the second application interface (for example, function control 1, function control 2, function control 3, function control 4), and can trigger and call the corresponding functions of the application.

[0063] That is to say, compared with the card - like component and the first application interface, the second application interface can be understood as a more complex mode of the application it corresponds to. The user can directly interact with the application corresponding to it through the second application interface, trigger and call more comprehensive functions of the application, without performing additional operations on the second application interface.

[0064] Here, the second operation is different from the first operation. The third operation may be the same as or different from the first operation, and may also be the same as or different from the second operation.

[0065] As an example, the second operation may be a double - click operation on the card - like component. For example, according to the functions of the terminal, a double - click operation on the card - like component can be performed through an input device such as a touch end (such as a finger, a stylus), or a mouse. The double - click operation may be two consecutive click operations, and the time interval between the two click operations may be less than a second predetermined duration (such as 1.5 seconds), and the duration of each click operation may be less than the first predetermined duration (such as 1 second). Similarly, the present application does not specifically limit the specific value of the second predetermined duration, and the second predetermined duration may be the same as or different from the first predetermined duration.

[0066] In addition, for a terminal that can accept gesture operations (for example, a terminal with touch control function), the third operation may be a zoom-in operation on the first application interface by a pinching gesture of two fingers, which will not be elaborated here.

[0067] It should be understood that the second application interface may include all function controls corresponding to the application and can implement all functions of the application, that is, the second application interface may be a complete interaction interface of the application, and the user can trigger and call all functions of the application through the second application interface. Of course, according to needs, the second application interface may also be a partial interaction interface of the application, and the present application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0068] Although the types and quantities of function controls included in the card component, the first application interface, and the second application interface are shown in the drawings, the drawings are only for illustration. In the terminal desktop display method of the embodiments of the present application, the types and quantities of function controls included / displayed in the card component, the first application interface, and the second application interface are not limited to the examples shown in the drawings.

[0069] In practical applications, the card component may include or visually display buttons corresponding to the first operation and / or the second operation, and the first application interface may include or visually display buttons corresponding to the third operation, so that the first operation, the second operation, and / or the third operation may be click operations on the corresponding buttons (for example, zoom-in buttons).

[0070] The present application does not make specific limitations on the first operation, the second operation, and the third operation, as long as they can trigger and implement the switching between the respective interaction interfaces corresponding to the application.

[0071] According to the terminal desktop display method provided by the embodiments of the present application, each application can be displayed as different interactive interfaces (including the card component, the first application interface, and the second application interface) on the terminal desktop. Different interactive interfaces correspond to different modes of the application. Thus, the user can switch the interactive interfaces of each application displayed on the terminal desktop as needed, and trigger and call different levels of functions of the application in different modes through different interactive interfaces corresponding to each application. Specifically, when the card component of the application is displayed on the terminal desktop, the user can trigger and call the brief or key functions of the application through at least one function control of the card component; when the first application interface of the application is displayed on the terminal desktop, the user can trigger and call more functions of the application through multiple (at least two) function controls of the first application interface; and when the second application interface of the application is displayed on the terminal desktop, the user can trigger and call more comprehensive functions of the application through more function spaces of the second application interface. In this way, the terminal system can provide different levels of functions for each application according to the user's needs, thereby facilitating the user, improving the user experience, and reducing the power consumption and performance loss of the terminal system.

[0072] In some embodiments, if the user performs a fourth operation on the first application interface or a fifth operation on the second application interface, the terminal system calls and displays the card component of the application corresponding to the first application interface or the second application interface; if the user performs a sixth operation on the second application interface, the terminal system calls and displays the first application interface of the application corresponding to the second application interface.

[0073] That is to say, as Figure 4 shown, by using the terminal desktop display method of the embodiments of the present application, different interactive interfaces (including the card component, the first application interface, and the second application interface) of each application can be switched with each other.

[0074] Here, the fifth operation is different from the sixth operation, and the fourth operation may be the same as or different from the fifth operation, and may also be the same as or different from the sixth operation.

[0075] Similarly, in practical applications, the first application interface may include or visually display a button corresponding to the fourth operation, and the second application interface may include or visually display buttons corresponding to the fifth operation and / or the sixth operation. Thus, the fourth operation, the fifth operation, and / or the sixth operation may be click operations on the corresponding buttons (for example, the shrink button).

[0076] This application does not specifically limit the fourth operation, the fifth operation, and the sixth operation, as long as it can trigger and implement the switching between the respective interactive interfaces corresponding to the application.

[0077] In some embodiments, in step S1, obtaining and displaying the card-based components of an application includes: obtaining and displaying the card-based components of multiple applications, each card-based component corresponding to one application; and grouping the multiple card-based components according to the types of the multiple applications, such that the card-based components corresponding to each type of application form a group and are displayed as one card, where each card-based component is displayed in an area of the card corresponding to it.

[0078] Specifically, the type of each application can be determined according to the attribute of the function of the application or specified by the user. For example, the terminal system can interact with the applications being installed or already installed in the terminal system to obtain the attributes of the functions of each application, and automatically classify each application according to the attributes of the functions of each application, or the user can interact with the terminal system to specify the types of all or part of the applications, so that the terminal system can classify each application according to the user's specification.

[0079] Figure 5 Shows a schematic diagram of the card in the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 5 shown, the card-based components corresponding to the applications of the first type (for example, including Application 1 to Application 3) form a group and are displayed as one card (i.e., the card of the applications of the first type), and the card-based components corresponding to the applications of the second type (for example, including Application 11 to Application 13) form a group and are displayed as one card (i.e., the card of the applications of the second type), and each application is displayed as one card-based component in the card.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present application, the user can directly perform the above-mentioned first operation and / or second operation on any card-based component in the card without operating on the card, or can directly operate on any function control of any card-based component in the card, so as to trigger and call the corresponding function.

[0081] In practical applications, the applications of the first type may include many applications. However, the card of the applications of the first type may only display the card-based components corresponding to some applications at a time. In this case, the terminal desktop display method in the embodiment of the present application may further include: in response to a seventh operation on the card, switching the card-based components displayed by the card.

[0082] Figure 6 Shows a schematic diagram of the card switching the card-based components it displays. As Figure 6As shown, the first type of applications includes Applications 1 to 6. However, at most 3 card components corresponding to applications can be displayed on the card of the first type of applications at a time. The user can perform a seventh operation on the card to switch the card components displayed on the card. For example, the card can switch from displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 1 to 3 to displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 4 to 6, or the card can switch from displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 4 to 6 to displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 1 to 3.

[0083] Here, as an example, the seventh operation can be a sliding (e.g., swiping left, swiping right, swiping up, swiping down) operation.

[0084] Figure 7 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the card in the embodiment of the present application switching the card components it displays. As Figure 7 shown, the first type of applications includes Applications 1 to N. However, at most 3 card components corresponding to applications can be displayed on the card of the first type of applications at a time. The user can perform a seventh operation on the card to switch the card components displayed on the card. For example, the card can switch from displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 1 to 3 to displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 3 to 6, or the card can switch from displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 3 to 6 to displaying the card components corresponding to Applications 1 to 3, where the card components corresponding to Applications 3 and 6 may not be fully displayed.

[0085] Here, as an example, the seventh operation can be a sliding (e.g., swiping up, swiping down) operation.

[0086] It should be understood that the above N can be a positive integer greater than 6. In fact, according to requirements, N can be a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, and correspondingly, the number of card components displayed on each card can be adjusted. That is, compared with the figures shown, the first type of applications may include more or fewer applications, and the cards of the first type of applications may be able to display more or fewer card components corresponding to applications at a time. The present application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0087] In some embodiments, as Figure 8 shown, the card component corresponding to any application may further include a display bar configured to display notification information.

[0088] Specifically, the notification information may include at least one of a prompt message for prompting the user to update the application, information pushed by the application (e.g., news), information received by the application (e.g., text messages, WeChat), or user-defined information (e.g., schedule reminder).

[0089] It should be understood that the card component may include one or more display bars configured to display notification information. For example, in the case where the card component includes one display bar configured to display notification information, or in the case where the number of display bars included in the card component is less than the types and / or quantities of notification information to be displayed, the notification information displayed in the display bar may be updated according to at least one of the type of the notification information, the arrival time of the notification information, or a user-defined rule.

[0090] Of course, in the case where the card component includes a plurality of display bars configured to display notification information, the notification information may be classified so that each display bar (for example, in different ways) displays different categories of notification information.

[0091] In some embodiments, as Figure 9 shown, if the user performs an eighth operation on the card component corresponding to any application, the terminal system may switch from displaying the card component of the application to displaying the application icon of the application. Conversely, if the user performs an eighth operation on the application icon of the application, the terminal system may also switch from displaying the application icon of the application to displaying the card component of the application.

[0092] In some embodiments, as Figure 10 shown, if the user performs a ninth operation on the card of any type of application (for example, a first type of application), the terminal system may switch from displaying the card to displaying a corresponding folder, and display each card component in a group of the card components corresponding to the card as the application icon of the application corresponding thereto, where the application icon is displayed in the folder. Conversely, if the user performs a ninth operation on the folder displayed on the terminal desktop, the terminal system may switch from displaying the folder to displaying a corresponding card, and display each application icon in a group of application icons included in the folder as the card component of the application corresponding thereto, where the card component is displayed in the card.

[0093] That is to say, the terminal system may switch the desktop display mode according to the user operation. As an example, the eighth operation may be a long-press operation performed on the card component or the application icon, and the long-press operation may be an operation of continuously pressing the card component or the application icon for a predetermined duration (for example, greater than 2 seconds). The ninth operation may be the same as or different from the eighth operation, which will not be elaborated here.

[0094] In some embodiments, if the user performs a tenth operation on the card component corresponding to any application, the terminal system may switch the function controls visually displayed by the card component; if the user performs an eleventh operation on the first application interface corresponding to any application, the terminal system may switch the function controls visually displayed by the first application interface; if the user performs a twelfth operation on the second application interface corresponding to any application, the terminal system may switch the function controls visually displayed by the second application interface.

[0095] Here, the tenth operation, the eleventh operation, and the twelfth operation may be the same or different.

[0096] Similar to the above seventh operation, the tenth operation, the eleventh operation, and / or the twelfth operation may be corresponding swiping operations, for example, swiping left, swiping right, swiping up, or swiping down.

[0097] However, the present application does not specifically limit the tenth operation, the eleventh operation, and the twelfth operation, as long as they can trigger and implement the switching of the display content (including function controls) in the interaction interface corresponding to the application.

[0098] As Figure 11 shown, the card component corresponding to any application may display only one function control at a time (for example, function control 1), but if the user performs a tenth operation on the card component, the terminal system may switch the function control visually displayed by the card component (for example, switching from displaying function control 1 to displaying function control 2, or from displaying function control 2 to displaying function control 1).

[0099] As Figure 12 shown, the first application interface corresponding to any application may display two function controls at a time (for example, function control 1 and function control 2), but if the user performs an eleventh operation on the first application interface, the terminal system may switch the function controls visually displayed by the first application interface (for example, switching from displaying function control 1 and function control 2 to displaying function control 3 and function control 4, or from displaying function control 3 and function control 4 to displaying function control 1 and function control 2).

[0100] As Figure 13As shown, the second application interface corresponding to any application can display only four function controls at a time (for example, function controls 1 to 4). However, if the user performs a twelfth operation on the second application interface, the terminal system can switch the function controls visually displayed on the second application interface (for example, switch from displaying function controls 1 to 4 to displaying function controls 5 to 8, or switch from displaying function controls 5 to 8 to displaying function controls 1 to 4).

[0101] As an example, the tenth operation, the eleventh operation, and the twelfth operation can be sliding operations (including upward sliding, downward sliding, leftward sliding, and rightward sliding). However, this application is not limited thereto.

[0102] It should be understood that for any one of the card component, the first application interface, or the second application interface, the function controls that can be visually displayed simultaneously (i.e., at one time) can be switched in whole or in part according to the user's operation. For example, different ranges of function controls that are visually displayed simultaneously can be switched according to the different amplitudes of the user's sliding operation. Moreover, for any one of the card component, the first application interface, or the second application interface, some of the function controls visually displayed may be incomplete.

[0103] In some embodiments, for the convenience of user identification, each of the card component, the first application interface, and the second application interface corresponding to any application can include the application icon of the application.

[0104] Figure 14 The figure shows a schematic diagram of a card component including an application icon according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 15 The figure shows a schematic diagram of a first application interface including an application icon according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 16 The figure shows a schematic diagram of a second application interface including an application icon according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0105] It should be understood that for the card component including a display bar configured to display notification information and / or an application icon, if the user performs a tenth operation on the card component, the display of the display bar and / or the application icon can be switched together with the function controls, or the display bar and / or the application icon can always be visually displayed without being switched. This application does not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0106] Similarly, for the first application interface and / or the second application interface including the application icon, if the user performs an eleventh operation on the first application interface and / or a twelfth operation on the second application interface, the display of the application icon can be switched together with the function control, or the application icon can always be visually displayed without being switched. This application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0107] In addition, as needed, the first application interface and / or the second application interface may also include a display bar configured to display notification information, which will not be elaborated here.

[0108] In a second aspect, an embodiment of this application further provides a computer-readable storage medium, as Figure 17 shown, on which a computer program is stored, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, it can enable the processor to implement the terminal desktop display method of the embodiment of this application described above.

[0109] In a third aspect, an embodiment of this application provides an electronic device, as Figure 18 shown, including: a memory 100 configured to store computer program instructions; and at least one processor 101 configured to execute the computer program instructions to implement the terminal desktop display method of the embodiment of this application described above.

[0110] In some embodiments, the electronic device further includes: one or more I / O interfaces 102 connected between the processor 101 and the memory 100 and configured to implement information interaction between the processor 101 and the memory 100.

[0111] In some embodiments, the processor 101 is a device with data processing capabilities, including but not limited to a central processing unit (CPU), etc.; the memory 100 is a device with data storage capabilities, including but not limited to a random access memory (RAM, more specifically such as SDRAM, DDR, etc.), a read-only memory (ROM), an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), a flash memory (FLASH); the I / O interface (read / write interface) 102 is connected between the processor 101 and the memory 100 and can implement information interaction between the processor 101 and the memory 100, including but not limited to a data bus interface, etc.

[0112] In some embodiments, the processor 101, the memory 100, and the I / O interface 102 are interconnected through a bus (Bus) 103 and then connected to other device components.

[0113] As an example, the electronic device can be implemented as a terminal (for example, a mobile terminal), including but not limited to a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a personal computer, etc.

[0114] For ease of understanding, the implementation of the terminal desktop display method according to the embodiments of the present application is shown below with specific examples in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0115] Figure 19 A schematic diagram of the card-based component of the application "WeChat" according to the embodiments of the present application is shown. As Figure 19 shown, the card-based component of the application "WeChat" may include the application icon "WeChat", and may include display bars "Moments reminder", "User message reminder", "System message reminder" configured to display notification information, and may also include small function controls such as "Official account", "Mini program", "Payment", "Address book", "Moments", "Card package", etc. The user can directly obtain relevant notification information through the display bars "Moments reminder", "User message reminder", "System message reminder", or can directly operate (for example, click) the function controls "Official account", "Mini program", "Payment", "Address book", "Moments" and / or "Card package" to trigger and call the corresponding functions.

[0116] As an example, the user can click the function control "Payment" to trigger and call the payment function (for example, display a payment QR code), or can click the function control "Mini program" to trigger the display of sub-function controls related to the function control "Mini program", and the sub-function controls can be interaction interfaces of applications that can be used without installation.

[0117] If the user performs a tenth operation on the card-based component, the function controls visually displayed by the card-based component can be switched between the function controls "Official account", "Mini program", "Payment" and the function controls "Address book", "Moments", "Card package".

[0118] Figure 20 A schematic diagram of the first application interface of the application "WeChat" according to the embodiments of the present application is shown. As Figure 20 shown, the first application interface of the application "WeChat" may include the application icon "WeChat", and may also include some function controls such as "Chat box", "Moments", "Video account", "Official account", "Mine", "More", "Address book", "Mini program", "Scan", "Look", "Shop", etc. If the user performs an eleventh operation on the first application interface, the function controls visually displayed by the first application interface can be switched between the function controls "Chat box", "Moments", "Video account", "Official account", "Mine", "More" and the function controls "Chat box", "Address book", "Mini program", "Scan", "Look", "Shop".

[0119] Figure 21 A schematic diagram of the second application interface of the application "WeChat" according to the embodiments of the present application is shown. As Figure 21As shown, the second application interface of the application "WeChat" may include the application icon "WeChat" and may also include all the function controls of the application "WeChat". If the user performs the twelfth operation on the second application interface, the function controls intuitively displayed on the second application interface can be switched among all the function controls of the application "WeChat", for example, the sub-function controls "Friends Circle", "Video Account", "Live Broadcast", "Scan", "Shake", "Take a Look", "Search", "Nearby", "Shopping", "Game", "Mini Program" of the display function control "Discover" can be switched between the sub-function controls "Service", "Favorites", "Friends Circle", "Card Bag", "Emoji", and "Settings" of the display function control "My".

[0120] Figure 22 The schematic diagram shows a function that is triggered and called after a specific function control of the first application interface of the application "WeChat" in the embodiment of the present application receives a user operation. Figure 22 As shown, if the function control "My" of the first application interface of the application "WeChat" receives a user operation (i.e., user input, such as a click operation), the terminal system can correspondingly call and display the sub-function controls "Services", "Favorites", "Friends Circle", "Card Bag", "Emojis", and "Settings" of the function control "My". Of course, the user can also directly operate the function control "Chat Box" of the first application interface of the application "WeChat" to directly use the chat function of the application "WeChat".
