Cross-Device Page Display to Avoid Manual App Switching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing network page display technologies require frequent manual program switching, leading to cumbersome operations and reduced efficiency for users.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that allows a first electronic device to display a page and send a display instruction to a second electronic device in response to user interaction, enabling seamless continuation of the application program on the first device while displaying associated pages on the second device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the user clicks on information to view details or perform operations, then the application program switches to background mode to display the detailed page, but the continuity of the application program is affected and frequent manual switching is required
Solution Approach 1:
A second electronic device serves as an intermediary to display detailed information pages. When the user clicks on information in the first electronic device, the system sends a display instruction to the second electronic device, which renders the detailed page independently. This mediator approach eliminates the need for the application program to switch between foreground and background modes, maintaining operational continuity while reducing switching complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from a single-device display model to a multi-device display model. By utilizing the second electronic device as an additional display dimension, the detailed information can be presented without interfering with the first electronic device's application program execution. This dimensional expansion allows simultaneous foreground execution of the original application and display of detailed information on a different device.
2Productivity
If the application program switches to background mode to display detailed information, then the detailed page can be viewed, but the operation efficiency is reduced due to frequent manual program switching
Solution Approach 1:
The second electronic device acts as an intermediary that handles detailed information display independently. The first electronic device sends display instructions to the second device, which renders and displays the detailed page without requiring the application program to switch modes. This eliminates the time-consuming process of manual program switching and maintains high operation efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The application program continues to execute in the foreground on the first electronic device while the second electronic device simultaneously displays the detailed information page. This parallel execution model ensures that the useful action of viewing detailed information does not interrupt the continuity of the application program, thereby maintaining operation efficiency and eliminating time loss from program switching.
3Ease of operation
If the first electronic device displays all information locally, then the user can view details immediately, but the application program must switch to background mode and requires manual switching back
Solution Approach 1:
The system utilizes the second electronic device as an additional display dimension. The first electronic device maintains the application program in foreground mode and sends display instructions to the second device, which renders the detailed information page. This dimensional approach allows the user to access detailed information without switching application programs, as the second device provides an independent display space that does not interfere with the original application's efficiency.

AI summary
A page display method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a readable storage medium are provided, and belong to the field of internet technologies. The method includes: A first electronic device displays a first page in a running application program (S701); the first electronic device closes the first page in response to a display operation initiated by a user on the first page, and sends a display instruction related to the first page to a second electronic device (S702); the second electronic device displays, in response to the display instruction, a second page associated with the first page on the second electronic device (S703). The method can resolve a problem that a user needs to manually perform program switching frequently, operations are cumbersome, and operation efficiency of an application program is reduced in an existing network page display technology.
