Lock Screen Application Launch Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Electronic devices with a lock function set require additional operations to switch from a quick-launch screen to an application home screen, necessitating the release of the lock function before accessing all application functions.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a processor configured to display a first-mode launch screen and switch it to a second-mode launch screen based on user input, determining whether to perform an authentication operation when selecting menus that require authentication, allowing access to all application functions without releasing the lock function.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the lock function is released to access all application functions, then the ease of operation is improved, but the security is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The application launch process is segmented into two distinct modes: a first-mode launch screen that provides limited functions while the lock function remains set, and a second-mode application home screen that provides all functions after authentication. This segmentation allows users to access basic functions without releasing the lock, maintaining security while providing operational convenience.
2Reliability
If the lock function is maintained to ensure security, then the reliability is improved, but the ease of operation is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements partial action by allowing access to a subset of application functions (first-mode launch screen) without completing the full authentication process. Users can perform basic operations while the lock function remains set, and only need to authenticate when accessing restricted functions or switching to the second-mode application home screen.
3Reliability
If additional authentication operations are required to access all application functions, then the security is improved, but the productivity is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by implementing authentication checks at the point of accessing specific functions or switching to the second-mode application home screen, rather than requiring authentication before any interaction. This allows users to quickly access basic functions without authentication overhead, while security is maintained for sensitive operations.

AI summary
An electronic device and an operating method are provided. The electronic device includes a display and a processor. The processor may be configured to display a first-mode launch screen for an application on the display based on an application launching request in a state where a lock function is set, switch the first-mode launch screen displayed on the display to a second-mode launch screen of the application based on a mode switching request, and determine whether to proceed with an authentication operation based on an operation selected from the second-mode launch screen.
