Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual searching and checking is used to determine application installation status and sharing capability, then the user can verify application compatibility, but the process becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs automatic self-verification of application installation status and sharing capability on the second terminal. The processor automatically queries whether the application is installed and whether it supports status information sharing, eliminating the need for manual user verification while ensuring compatibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary automatic checks of application installation status and sharing capability before initiating the information sharing process. By pre-verifying compatibility conditions, the system avoids time-consuming manual checks during the actual sharing operation.
2Reliability
If the user manually adds applications and explores sharing functions, then application compatibility can be confirmed, but the complexity of operations increases
Solution Approach 1:
The second terminal automatically performs queries to determine application installation status and sharing capability support. The processor autonomously verifies whether the application exists and whether it supports status information sharing, removing the burden of manual exploration from the user.
Solution Approach 2:
The verification process is segmented into distinct automatic queries: one to check application installation status and another to check sharing capability. This automated segmentation of verification tasks simplifies the user interface while maintaining comprehensive compatibility checking.
3Ease of operation
If version differences between applications on different terminals are not considered, then the sharing process is simpler, but sharing capability may fail due to version incompatibility
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically queries and detects version differences between applications on different terminals. The processor performs self-verification to determine whether version compatibility exists, enabling reliable cross-version sharing without requiring manual version checking by the user.

AI summary
Embodiments provide an application information sharing method and apparatus. The application information sharing method of embodiments includes receiving, by a second terminal by using Near Field Communication, application information sent by a first terminal, where the application information includes identification information of an application and status information of the application and parsing the application information to obtain the identification information of the application and the status information of the application. The method also includes performing a query on the second terminal according to the identification information of the application, and in a case in which it is found that the application is installed in the second terminal, synchronizing, according to the status information of the application, status information of the application in the second terminal with the status information of the application in the first terminal.
