Generally, electronic devices can support an application folder function, that is, users can create an application folder on the desktop of the electronic device, and then add multiple application icons to the application folder, so that the desktop is more tidy. The application folder can be understood as a folder that can be used to classify and manage multiple application icons.

In one example, please refer to (a) in FIG. 1 , when the user wants to create an application folder, he can drag one application icon onto another application icon. In response to the drag operation, the electronic device creates an application folder, and displays a folder icon of the application folder on the desktop. For example, the folder icon is shown as 00 in (b) of FIG. 1 . It should be noted that for this type of application folder, when the user needs to click an application icon in the application folder to trigger the electronic device to start the corresponding application, it is necessary to first click the folder icon of the application folder to open the application. folder, and then the user can click the application icon in the application folder to trigger the electronic device to open the corresponding application. This type of application folder is often called a small folder.

In one scenario, in order to facilitate the user to directly click the application icon in the application folder, the type of the small folder may also be modified. Exemplarily, the user can long press the small folder, and in response to the user's long press operation on the small folder, the electronic device displays a setting window in the vicinity of the folder icon of the small folder, as shown in Figure 2 (a) As shown, the settings window includes a "Show as large folders" option. Please refer to (b) in Figure 2, the user can click the "display as a large folder" option, and in response to the user's trigger operation on the "display as a large folder" option, the electronic device will set the small folder as another type of application folder, the folder icon of which is shown as 21 in (c) of FIG. 2 . It should be noted that, for this type of application folder, when the user needs to click a certain application icon in the application folder and the application icon is located in the folder icon, the user can directly click the application icon, in response to the user's When the application icon triggers an operation, the electronic device opens the corresponding application. That is, for this type of application folder, if the application icon of the application to be opened is located in the folder icon, it is not necessary for the user to click the folder icon first to trigger the electronic device to open the application folder. Instead of triggering the application icon in the folder, you can directly trigger the application icon on the folder icon to open the corresponding application. For example, please refer to (c) in FIG. 2 , when the user wants to open application A, he can directly click the application icon of application A, and correspondingly, in response to the click operation, the electronic device opens application A. In some embodiments, this type of application folder may be referred to as a large folder.

However, when the number of application icons in the application folder is large, multiple application icons need to be displayed in pages. At this time, whether it is a small folder or a large folder, if the application icon of the application that the user wants to open is located on another page, That is, if it is not located in the page currently displayed in the folder icon, the user needs to click the folder icon to open the application folder, and then turn the page to find the application icon to be found. For example, take a large folder as an example, please refer to Figure 3, when there are multiple application icons in the large folder and the multiple application icons are displayed in multiple pages, please refer to (a) in Figure 3, Generally, the undisplayed application icons are stacked in the lower right corner of the folder icon 31 of the large folder. Assuming that the user wants to find and open the application 14 in the application folder, the following three steps need to be performed: 1. The user clicks the application icon stacked in the lower right corner of the folder icon 31 of the large folder, such as (b ) as shown in the figure. In response to the user's click operation on the stacked application icons, the electronic device opens a large folder, and the display effect is as shown in (c) in FIG. 3 . 2. The user slides the contents of the folder to the left. In response to the user's left-swipe operation, the electronic device turns pages of the displayed content in the folder icon, as shown in (d) of FIG. 3 . 3. The user clicks the application icon 14 . In response to the user's trigger operation on the application icon 14 , the electronic device opens the application corresponding to the application icon 14 .

In this way, the operation is relatively cumbersome, and the efficiency of finding application icons is low, thereby reducing the efficiency of application management. For this reason, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for displaying application icons. In this method, when the application icons in the application folder are displayed in multiple pages, the user is supported to directly display the application icon on the folder icon of the application folder. Turning the page avoids the need for the user to open the application folder, so that the user can quickly find the application icon to be searched, thereby improving the management efficiency of the application.

The pressure sensor 180A is used to sense the pressure signal and convert the pressure signal into an electrical signal. In some embodiments, pressure sensor 180A may be disposed on display screen 194 . There are many types of pressure sensors 180A, such as resistive pressure sensors, inductive pressure sensors, and capacitive pressure sensors. A capacitive pressure sensor may be comprised of at least two parallel plates with conductive material. When a force is applied to the pressure sensor 180A, the capacitance between the electrodes changes. The electronic device 100 determines the intensity of pressure according to the change in capacitance. When a touch operation acts on the display screen 194, the electronic device 100 detects the intensity of the touch operation according to the pressure sensor 180A. The electronic device 100 may also calculate the touched position according to the detection signal of the pressure sensor 180A. In some embodiments, touch operations acting on the same touch position but with different touch operation intensities may correspond to different operation instructions. For example: when a touch operation whose intensity is less than the pressure threshold acts on the short message application icon, an instruction to view the short message is executed. When a touch operation whose intensity is greater than or equal to the pressure threshold acts on the icon of the short message application, the instruction of creating a new short message is executed.

The indicator 192 can be an indicator light, and can be used to indicate charging status, power change, and can also be used to indicate messages, missed calls, notifications, and the like.

Next, the software system of the electronic device 100 will be described.

The software system of the electronic device 100 may adopt a layered architecture, an event-driven architecture, a micro-kernel architecture, a micro-service architecture, or a cloud architecture. In the embodiment of the present application, the software system of the electronic device 100 is exemplarily described by taking an Android system with a layered architecture as an example.

FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a software system of an electronic device 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 5, the layered architecture divides the software into several layers, and each layer has a clear role and division of labor. Layers communicate through software interfaces. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, which are, from top to bottom, the application program layer, the application program framework layer, the Android runtime (Android runtime) and the system layer, and the kernel layer.

The application layer can consist of a series of application packages. As shown in FIG. 5, the application package may include desktop applications, camera, gallery, call, map, navigation, bluetooth, music, video and other applications.

As an example of the present application, the desktop application includes a folder icon module and a folder module. As an example but not a limitation, the folder icon module may include a sliding monitoring function, a data display refreshing function, and a UI displaying function. The sliding monitoring function is used to monitor the user's trigger event on the folder icon, and judge whether to turn the page according to the trigger event. The data display refresh function is used to refresh the page-turned application icon set in the folder icon when it is determined that the page needs to be turned through the sliding monitoring function. The UI display function is used to display folder icons on the desktop. Wherein, the folder icon displays a collection of currently operable application icons in the application folder. The application icon set includes at least one application icon, and it is easy to understand that one application icon corresponds to a unique application.

As an example of this application, the folder module can be used to provide basic application icon-related data, for example, it can be used to provide paging data and content change data, wherein the paging data refers to the paging application icon data, and the content change data is The data after changing the application icon.

As an example of the present application, the folder icon module is CardFolderIcon, and the folder module is Folder.

The application framework layer provides an application programming interface (application programming interface, API) and a programming framework for applications in the application layer. The application framework layer includes some predefined functions. As shown in Figure 5, the application framework layer can include window managers, content providers, view systems, phone managers, resource managers, notification managers, and so on. A window manager is used to manage window programs. The window manager can get the size of the display screen, determine whether there is a status bar, lock the screen, capture the screen, etc. Content providers are used to store and retrieve data, and make these data accessible to applications. These data can include video, images, audio, calls made and received, browsing history and bookmarks, phonebook, etc. The view system includes visual controls, such as controls for displaying text, controls for displaying pictures, and so on. The view system can be used to build the display interface of the application, and the display interface can be composed of one or more views, for example, including a view for displaying SMS notification icons, a view for displaying text, and a view for displaying pictures. The phone manager is used to provide communication functions of the electronic device 100, such as management of call status (including connecting, hanging up, etc.). The resource manager provides various resources for the application, such as localized strings, icons, pictures, layout files, video files, etc. The notification manager enables the application to display notification information in the status bar, which can be used to convey notification-type messages, and can automatically disappear after a short stay without user interaction. For example, the notification manager is used to notify download completion, message reminders, etc. The notification manager can also be notifications that appear in the status bar at the top of the system in the form of charts or scrolling text, such as notifications for applications running in the background. The notification manager can also be a notification that appears on the screen in the form of a dialog window, such as prompting text information in the status bar, making a prompt sound, vibrating the electronic device, and flashing an indicator light.

Android Runtime includes core library and virtual machine. The Android runtime is responsible for the scheduling and management of the Android system. The core library consists of two parts: one part is the function function that the java language needs to call, and the other part is the core library of Android. The application layer and the application framework layer run in virtual machines. The virtual machine executes the java files of the application program layer and the application program framework layer as binary files. The virtual machine is used to perform functions such as object life cycle management, stack management, thread management, security and exception management, and garbage collection.

The system library may include multiple functional modules, such as: surface manager (surface manager), media library (Media Libraries), 3D graphics processing library (such as: OpenGL ES), 2D graphics engine (such as: SGL) and so on. The surface manager is used to manage the display subsystem and provides the fusion of 2D and 3D layers for multiple applications. The media library supports playback and recording of various commonly used audio and video formats, as well as still image files, etc. The media library can support a variety of audio and video encoding formats, such as: MPEG4, H.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, PNG, etc. The 3D graphics processing library is used to implement 3D graphics drawing, image rendering, compositing, and layer processing, etc. 2D graphics engine is a drawing engine for 2D drawing.

The kernel layer is the layer between hardware and software. The kernel layer includes at least a display driver, a camera driver, an audio driver, and a sensor driver.

The workflow of the software and hardware of the electronic device 100 will be exemplarily described below in conjunction with capturing and photographing scenes.

When the touch sensor 180K receives a touch operation, a corresponding hardware interrupt is sent to the kernel layer. The kernel layer processes touch operations into original input events (including touch coordinates, time stamps of touch operations, and other information). Raw input events are stored at the kernel level. The application framework layer obtains the original input event from the kernel layer, and identifies the control corresponding to the original input event. Take the touch operation as a click operation, and the control corresponding to the click operation is the control of the camera application icon as an example. The camera application calls the interface of the application framework layer to start the camera application, and then calls the kernel layer to start the camera driver. 193 Capture still images or video.

Next, several possible application scenarios involved in the embodiments of the present application are introduced by taking the electronic device as a mobile phone as an example.

Please refer to FIG. 6 , which is a schematic diagram of an application scenario according to an exemplary embodiment. In this application scenario, a large folder is established in the mobile phone, and the folder icon of the large folder is shown as 61 in (a) of FIG. 6 . The large folder includes 18 application icons, which are displayed on two pages. That is, 9 application icons can be displayed in the folder icon 61 of the large folder, and each page in the large folder includes 9 application icons. In the embodiment of the present application, as shown in (a) of FIG. 6 , the mobile phone does not display application icons stacked in the folder icon 61 , but directly displays all application icons included in each page. When the user wants to query the application icons contained in the next page in the large folder, he can slide to the left on the folder icon 61 to perform page turning operation. Please refer to (b) in FIG. 6 , in response to the user's leftward slide operation on the folder icon 61 , the mobile phone displays each application icon contained in the next page of the large folder. That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, the user does not need to open the large folder, but can slide on the folder icon 61 to turn pages, so that the application icon to be searched can be quickly found. In this way, the user's sense of experience can be increased.

In the display state shown in (b) of FIG. 6 , if the user wants to return to view an application icon on the previous page, for example, to open application 1, he can slide to the right on the folder icon. Please refer to (c) in FIG. 6 , in response to the user's slide operation to the right on the folder icon 61 , the mobile phone displays each application icon contained in the previous page of the large folder. That is to say, the mobile phone can support the user to turn pages forward and backward on the folder icon, so as to quickly find the application icon to be found.

It should be noted that, the foregoing is described by taking the mobile phone as an example in which the user slides left and right to turn pages. In another embodiment, the user may also be supported to slide up and down to turn pages. Exemplarily, when the user slides upwards on the folder icon 61, in response to the upward sliding operation, the mobile phone displays in the folder icon 61 the various application icons included in the next page in the large folder; 61, in response to the downward sliding operation, the mobile phone displays in the folder icon 61 each application icon included in the previous page in the large folder.

In an example, in order to enable the user to intuitively know that the application icons in the large folder have more than one page, that is, they are displayed in multiple pages, a multi-page indicator may be displayed in the vicinity of the folder icon 61, The multi-page indicator is used to indicate that the large folder includes multiple pages. For example, referring to FIG. 6 , a dot mark 62 may be displayed under the folder icon 61 . Wherein, the dot mark corresponding to the current page can be enlarged and displayed, so that the user can know which page is currently located and in which direction the user can slide to turn the page. For example, as shown in (a) in Figure 6, according to the display state, the user can know that he can slide to the left to turn the page, and as shown in (b) in Figure 6, according to the display state, the user can Learn that you can swipe right to turn pages.

It should be noted that, the above is only described by using the dot mark to indicate that there are multiple pages of application icons in the large folder as an example. In another embodiment, other marks may also be used for indication, for example, a triangle mark may also be used for indication, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

It should also be noted that if the mobile phone supports sliding up and down to turn pages, the multi-page indicator can also be displayed on the side of the folder icon 61 , such as displayed on the right side of the folder icon 61 .

As an example of the present application, in the display state of (a) in FIG. 6 , the user can also slide to the right on the folder icon 61. Each application icon included in the second page of the large folder is displayed in the folder icon 61 , as shown in (b) of FIG. 6 . That is to say, the mobile phone can support the user's multiple sliding operations in one direction on the folder icon 61. When the page is turned to the last page, if the user's sliding operation in this direction is detected again, the user can start from the first page. or the last page for loop display.

For example, please refer to FIG. 7 , assuming that the large folder includes three pages of application icons, if the current display state is as shown in (a) in FIG. 7 , that is, the current display in the folder icon 71 is a large file For each application icon included in the first page in the folder, when the user slides to the right on the folder icon 71, in response to the user’s rightward slide operation on the folder icon 71, the mobile phone will view the displayed content in the folder icon 71 After updating, the updated folder icon 71 displays the application icons included in the third page of the large folder, as shown in (b) of FIG. 7 . Of course, it is not difficult to understand that if what is currently displayed in the folder icon 71 is the application icon included in the third page in the large folder, then when the user slides to the left on the folder icon 71, in response to the user's scrolling on the folder icon 71 The mobile phone can also display the application icons included in the first page of the large folder in the folder icon, that is, the mobile phone can support the user to only swipe to the right or only to the left, both of which can realize circular page turning . In this way, user experience can be improved.

As an example of this application, on the basis of the above possible implementations, when the user wants to set a card for the application corresponding to any application icon in the large folder, he can select the application icon and slide in the specified direction. With the user's sliding operation, the mobile phone can generate and display a card on the desktop, and the card displays information related to the application selected by the user. The specified direction can be set as required. It should be noted that sliding in a specified direction is not the same as sliding in page turning. For example, if the sliding operation corresponding to page turning corresponds to sliding left and right, then sliding in the specified direction can slide up or down. Sliding up and down corresponding to the sliding operation, the sliding in the specified direction can be sliding to the left or sliding to the right.

Exemplarily, assuming that the user wants to add a card of the application "Weather" on the desktop of the mobile phone, the application icon of this application is located on the last page of the large folder, please refer to Figure 8, the application icon of this application is 14, If the display state of the folder icon in the mobile phone is as shown in Figure 8 (a), the user can slide to the left on the folder icon. In response to the user's sliding operation to the left, the mobile phone updates and displays the display content in the folder icon, that is, the updated folder icon displays each application folder included in the second page, as shown in (b) in Figure 8 to find the application icon 14. The user can select the application icon 14 in the folder icon and then slide upwards. In response to the user's upward sliding operation, the mobile phone displays a "weather" card on the desktop of the mobile phone. For example, please refer to (c) in Figure 8, "weather The card of " is shown as 81 in (c) figure among Fig. 8.

Further, when a card of APP1 is displayed on the desktop, the mobile phone may display a card indicator near the application icon corresponding to APP1 in the folder icon, and the card indicator is used to indicate that the card of APP1 is displayed on the desktop, so that users can view it intuitively. For example, please refer to the diagram (c) in FIG. 8 , a card indicator is displayed under the application icon 14 .

It is not difficult to understand that the user can add a card to the application corresponding to any application icon included in the large folder according to the above method, and in response to the user's operation of adding a card to the application corresponding to each application icon, the mobile phone sets the card for the corresponding application and display. Further, the mobile phone may display a card indicator in the folder icon near the application icon corresponding to each application that has added a card, so that the user can quickly know which applications have added a card. For example, it can be known from (c) in FIG. 8 that the application corresponding to the application icon 13 , the application corresponding to the application icon 14 , and the application corresponding to the application icon 15 are all added cards.

It should be noted that the number of application icons that can be displayed in the folder icon can be set by technicians according to actual needs, or how many application icons can be included in each page of a large folder. The application icon that can display up to 3 rows and 3 columns in the folder icon is described as an example. In another embodiment, two rows and two pages of application icons may also be displayed in the folder icon, that is, each page in the large folder may include four application icons. Alternatively, more application icons may be displayed in the folder icon, for example, three rows and four columns of application icons may be displayed, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present application.

In addition, it should be noted that the above is an example where the application folder is a large folder. In another example of this application, the application folder can also be a small folder. That is to say, for the small Folder, when the user wants to check which application icons are included in the small folder, he can slide on the folder icon of the small folder, and the mobile phone updates the small folder in response to the user's sliding operation on the folder icon to turn pages. Exemplarily, please refer to FIG. 9 , a folder icon 91 of a small folder is displayed in the mobile phone, as shown in (a) in FIG. 9 , when the user moves to the right (or When sliding to the left, in response to the sliding operation of the user, the mobile phone updates the display content in the folder icon 91, and what is displayed in the updated folder icon 91 is the content of the previous page (or next page) in the small folder. For example, the display effect of the application icon is as shown in (b) in FIG. 9 . In this way, it is convenient for the user to quickly check which application icons are included in the small folder, avoiding the need for the user to click the folder icon of the small folder to open the small file before turning pages, and improving the efficiency of the user in finding application icons.

It should be noted that for small folders, the mobile phone can also support the user to slide in only one direction. Correspondingly, the mobile phone can turn pages in a cycle. For specific implementation, please refer to the page turning of large folders above.

Next, the method for displaying the application icon provided by the embodiment of the present application is introduced in detail. Please refer to FIG. 10. FIG. 10 is a schematic flowchart of a method for displaying application icons according to an exemplary embodiment. Here, this method is applied to the electronic devices shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. The interactive implementation of the icon module and the folder module is taken as an example for illustration. This method may include some or all of the following contents:

A1. The folder icon module displays the folder icon of the application folder.

The application folder includes multiple application icons, and the multiple application icons are displayed in multiple pages.

In an example, displaying the folder icon of the application folder includes: displaying the folder icon of the application folder after the mobile phone loads the interface where the folder icon is located. For example, please refer to Figure 11, assuming that the current display state of the mobile phone is as shown in Figure 11 (a), when the user slides the interface to the interface where the folder icon is located, please refer to Figure 11 (b) , in response to the user's interface sliding operation, the mobile phone loads the interface, and the folder icon is displayed in the interface.

In another example, displaying the folder icon of the application folder includes: refreshing the mobile phone to display the displayed content in the folder icon. For example, please refer to figure (a) in FIG. 6 , after the user slides left on the folder icon 61 , in response to the user's left slide operation, the mobile phone updates and displays the folder icon.

A2. The folder icon module queries the application icon of the adjacent page of the current page from the folder module.

The current page refers to the page where the second set of application icons currently displayed in the folder icon is located. For example, please refer to diagram (a) in FIG. 7 , in this state, the current page refers to the first page in the application folder. For another example, please refer to (b) in FIG. 7 , in this state, the current page refers to the third page in the application folder.

The adjacent page application icons include a third set of application icons in pages adjacent to the current page. The number of adjacent pages may be one or two. In an example, if the application folder includes two pages of application icon sets, it is not difficult to understand that the adjacent page of the current page includes one. For example, please refer to Figure 6 , in the state of (a) in FIG. 6 , the adjacent page application icon includes each application icon in the second page, and for another example in the state of (b) in FIG. 6 , the adjacent page application icon includes Individual app icons on the first page. If the application folder includes three pages or more than three pages of application icon collections, the adjacent pages of the current page include two pages, which are the previous page and the next page. For example, please refer to FIG. 7, in which ( a) In the state shown in the figure, adjacent pages include the previous page and the next page, where the previous page is the third page in the application folder, and the next page is the second page in the application folder, as shown in the figure In the state of (b) in Figure 7, the previous page in the adjacent pages is the second page in the application folder, and the next page in the adjacent pages is the first page in the application folder.

As an example of the present application, the folder icon module can determine the page numbers of the adjacent pages of the current page in the application folder according to the page numbers of the current page in the application folder, and then send the determined page numbers of the adjacent pages to The folder module enables the folder module to query the third set of application icons in the adjacent page corresponding to the determined page number. It is not difficult to understand that when the number of adjacent pages of the current page is two, the adjacent page application icon of each adjacent page is queried from the folder module.

For example, please refer to (a) in FIG. 7 , the application folder includes 3 pages of application icon collections. When inquiring about the application icons of the adjacent pages of the current page, the folder icon module can determine that the page number of the current page is 1, so that the page numbers of the adjacent pages of the current page can be determined to be 2 and 3 respectively, and the folder icon module will use the page numbers 2 and 3 3 is sent to the folder module, and the folder module queries each application icon in the adjacent page corresponding to page number 2, that is, queries each application icon in the adjacent page corresponding to page number 3.

A3. The folder icon module loads the adjacent page application icons into the first cache space.

The first cache space is a cache space for storing attribute information of content displayed in the folder icon. Exemplarily, the attribute information may include, but not limited to, location information of an application icon, an application name identifier, and application startup page information.

The location information of the application icon is used to indicate the display position of the application icon in the folder icon. The location information can be represented by an array. For example, if the folder icon can display three rows and three columns, the first one in the folder icon The position information of the application icon on the position can be expressed as a[0][0], the position information of the application icon in the first row and first column of the folder icon can be expressed as a[0][1], and so on .

The application name identifier is used to uniquely identify an application, for example, the application name identifier may be expressed as APPid.

The application startup page information is used to generate the application page. For any application icon in the folder icons, when the application icon is clicked by the user, the electronic device generates and opens the application page corresponding to the application according to the application start page information corresponding to the application icon. In one example, if the application is in a closed state, the application startup page information of the application includes page information of the application initial page, for example, the application initial page may be an account login page and the like. In another example, if the application is running in the background, the application startup page information of the application includes page information of a page displayed before the application enters the background, for example, the application startup page information includes page information of a chat page.

That is to say, if the folder icon module displays the folder icon of the application folder, the application icon of the adjacent page of the current page may be preloaded from the folder module into the first cache space. In this way, data can be obtained directly from the first cache space when the page needs to be turned for subsequent display, and the display efficiency can be improved, that is, the real-time performance of refreshing and displaying folder icons can be improved.

It should be noted that the foregoing steps A2 and A3 are an optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present application.

A4. The folder icon module intercepts the touch event on the folder icon.

In an example, the user may want to turn pages of the application folder, and at this time, a sliding operation may be performed on the folder icon, and accordingly, the folder icon module may detect a touch event on the folder icon.

In another example, the user may touch the folder icon and no longer want to turn the page, in which case the user cancels the swipe after touching the folder icon, or the user may simply want to tap an app displayed in the folder icon icon, the user touches the app icon in the folder icon. Correspondingly, the folder icon module will also detect the touch event of the folder icon.

A5. If it is determined according to the touch event that it is a page turning operation, the folder icon module acquires the first set of application icons included in the target page from the first cache space.

The first set of application icons includes at least one application icon.

The target page may be the previous page or the next page of the page (that is, the current page) where the second set of application icons currently displayed in the folder icon is located. The target page corresponds to the page turning operation, that is, if the page turning operation is to turn to the next page, the target page is the next page of the current page; if the page turning operation is to turn to the previous page, the target page is the current page previous page of .

If it is determined according to the touch event that it is a page turning operation, it means that the user wants to turn the page. At this time, because the folder icon module preloads the application icons of the adjacent pages of the current page into the first cache space, the folder icon module can The first set of application icons included in the target page is directly acquired from the first cache space.

For example, please refer to (a) in Figure 12, assuming that the page turning operation is to slide to the left, it can be determined that the target page is the next page of the current page, that is, the third page in the application folder, the folder The icon module acquires the first set of application icons included in the third page from the first cache space.

Of course, if it is determined according to the touch event that it is not a page-turning operation, the electronic device performs the operation corresponding to the touch event. Applications.

A6. Folder icon module to turn pages.

In implementation, the folder icon module updates the display content in the folder icon, so that the updated folder icon displays the application icons in the first application icon set, thereby completing the page turning operation. For example, please refer to FIG. 12 , the display effect of the updated folder icon is shown in (b) in FIG. 12 .

In order to respond to the user's next page turning operation in time, the method may further include the following step A7.

A7. The folder icon module refreshes the data in the first cache space.

As an example of the present application, the specific implementation of refreshing the data in the first cache space may include: deleting from the first cache space the third set of application icons included in the adjacent page of the page where the second set of application icons is located, Loading the fourth set of application icons included in the adjacent pages of the target page into the first cache space.

Since the folder icon is refreshed, the first application icon set is displayed in the folder icon, that is, the page number of the current page in the folder icon has changed. To update the display content of the folder icon in real time, it is necessary to preload the application icon of the adjacent page of the target page into the first cache space. The specific loading process can be referred to above, and will not be described in detail here. In this way, it is convenient to respond to the user's next page turning operation in a timely manner.

It should be noted that there is no strict order of execution between step A7 and step A6. As an example and not a limitation, step A7 and step A6 can be performed in parallel, that is, after the folder icon module detects the page turning operation, on the one hand, The page turning operation is performed, and on the other hand, the data in the first cache space is updated.

As an example of this application, the user may add other application icons in the application folder, or the user may delete an application icon in the application folder, and correspondingly, in response to the user's application icon update operation on the application folder , if the application icon for the application icon update operation is located in the adjacent page of the page where the second application icon set is located, then determine the fifth application icon set included in the adjacent page of the page where the second application icon set is located, and store the first cache The third set of application icons in the space is updated to the fifth set of application icons.

Wherein, the application icon updating operation includes adding an application icon in the application folder or deleting an application icon in the application folder. That is, if the application icon added or deleted in the application folder is located in the adjacent page of the current page, it is also necessary to synchronously update the third application icon set of the adjacent page of the current page in the first cache space , so that the updated third application icon set (that is, the fifth application icon set) can be correctly displayed in the folder icon after the user turns the page.

As an example of this application, the application folder is the first type of application folder, and the first type of application folder refers to when the folder icon is not opened, when the application icon displayed in the folder icon is triggered The electronic device starts a corresponding application. That is, the application folder can be the large folder mentioned above. In this way, the method provided by the present application is applied to the first type of application folder, which can enable the user to quickly open the application, improve the convenience of operation, and thus improve the management efficiency of the application.

On the basis that the application folder is the first type of application folder, in response to a specified sliding operation on any application icon displayed in the folder icon, the application data of the application corresponding to any application icon is obtained, and the specified sliding operation and scrolling Page operations are different. A card is generated based on the application data, and the card is displayed on the interface of the electronic device.

That is, when the application folder is a large folder, on the basis of the method provided in the embodiment of the present application, it is also supported to create a card for the application corresponding to any application icon in the folder icon. For example, please refer to Figure 8, when it is necessary to create a card for the application corresponding to the application icon 14, the application icon 14 can be selected and then slid upwards, in response to the specified sliding operation, the electronic device obtains the application data, generates and displays the card as shown in (c) in Figure 8 81 in the figure. Usually, the card can display more detailed and rich application data, so that users can quickly view the detailed content in the application.

It should be noted that specifying that the sliding operation is different from the page turning operation is to prevent the electronic device from misjudging the user's actual intention of triggering an event on the folder icon. In an example, the specified sliding operation may include sliding up or sliding down, and the page turning operation may include sliding left or right. In another example, the specified sliding operation may include sliding left or right, and the page turning operation may include sliding up or sliding down. In yet another example, the specified sliding operation may include sliding in a diagonal direction of the folder icon, the page turning operation may include sliding to the left or right, or the page turning operation may include sliding up or down.

As another example of the present application, the application folder belongs to the second type of application folder, and the second type of application folder means that when the folder icon is not opened, when the application icon displayed in the folder icon is triggered When the electronic device opens the application folder. That is, the application folder may also be the above-mentioned small folder. In this way, the method provided by the present application is applied to the second type of application folders, enabling the user to quickly find application icons.

In the embodiment of the present application, a folder icon of an application folder is displayed, and the folder icon includes multiple application icons, and the multiple application icons are displayed in multiple pages. In response to the page turning operation on the folder icon, the first application icon set of the target page corresponding to the page turning operation is obtained, and the display content in the folder icon is updated, so that the updated folder icon displays the first application icon set App icon in . In this way, the user only needs to perform the page turning operation directly on the folder icon, and does not need to open the application folder before turning the page, which can improve the efficiency of finding the application icon, thereby improving the management efficiency of the application.

In addition, after the folder icon of the application folder is displayed, the application icon of the adjacent page of the page where the second set of application icons currently displayed in the folder icon is preloaded into the first cache space, so that when a page turning is detected During operation, the electronic device can quickly respond to the page turning operation. Moreover, only loading the application icons of the adjacent pages into the first cache space can save the first cache space and reduce the requirement on the cache performance of the electronic device, compared with loading all the application icons into the first cache space.

The above embodiment is described by taking the example of loading the application icon of the adjacent page of the current page into the first cache space after the folder icon is displayed. In another embodiment, the application icon collections of all pages in the application folder may also be preloaded into the first cache space. Specifically, please refer to FIG. 13 , which is shown according to another exemplary embodiment A schematic flowchart of a method for displaying an application icon, which is used as an example but not a limitation, and the method can be applied to the electronic devices shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 above, and the method can include the following content:

B1. A folder icon of an application folder is displayed.

For its specific implementation, reference may be made to step A1 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 10 , which will not be repeated here.

B2. Determine adjacent page index information from the first cache space.

The first cache space is the cache space used to store the attribute information of the content displayed in the folder icon. The first cache space stores a collection of application icons included in each page of multiple pages. Each page corresponds to index information, and adjacent page index information Index information of adjacent pages of the page where the second set of application icons is located (that is, the current page) is included.

In an example, the index information of each page may be the page number of each page. Exemplarily, the index information of the first page is 1, the index information of the second page is 2, and the index information of the third page is 3.

In one example, when the application folder includes two pages of application icons, the adjacent page index information includes index information of another page except the current page, for example, please refer to (a) in FIG. 6 , the current The adjacent page index information of the page includes index information of the second page in the application folder.

In another example, when the application folder includes three or more pages of application icon collections, the adjacent page index information includes the index information of the previous page and the index information of the next page of the current page, for example Please refer to (a) in FIG. 12 , the adjacent page index information of the current page includes the index information of the first page and the index information of the second page in the application folder.

As an example of the present application, the collection of application icons included in each page of all pages in the application folder can be preloaded into the first cache space, and each page corresponds to an index information, so that when the application folder is displayed When the folder icon is displayed, determine the index information of the adjacent pages of the current page in the application folder, that is, determine the adjacent page index information, so that when the user's page turning operation is detected, the adjacent page index can be quickly information to determine the individual application icons to be included in the target page to be displayed. It is worth mentioning that, when the application folder includes many pages, according to this implementation manner, the query speed for the target page can be improved.

It should be noted that step B2 is an optional implementation manner in the embodiment of the present application.

B3. In response to the page turning operation on the folder icon, determine the target index information corresponding to the page turning operation from the adjacent page index information.

In one example, please refer to diagram (a) in FIG. 12. In this state, when the user slides to the left on the folder icon, in response to the user's page turning operation, the electronic device indexes information from adjacent pages. It is determined that the target index information corresponding to the page turning operation is the index information of the third page.

B4. Obtain the application icon set included in the target page corresponding to the target index information from the first cache space, and obtain the first application icon set.

Since the first cache space stores the set of application icons included in each page of all the pages in the application folder, after the electronic device determines the target index information, it can determine which page is the target page corresponding to the target index information, thereby Each application icon included in the target page is acquired from the first cache space.

It should be noted that the above steps B3 to B4 are an optional implementation manner of acquiring the first set of application icons included in the target page corresponding to the page turning operation in response to the page turning operation on the folder icon.

B5. Update the displayed content in the folder icon.

What is displayed in the updated folder icon is the first set of application icons included in the target page. For example, please refer to figure (b) in FIG. 12 , after the electronic device updates the displayed content in the folder icon, the folder icon displays various application icons included in the third page of the application folder.

So far, the electronic device has completed page turning of the application folder. Further, since the display content in the folder icon has changed, that is, the page number of the current page in the folder icon has changed, so in order to be able to quickly respond to the user's page turning operation when the next page is turned, the electronic After the device updates the displayed content in the folder icon, it can continue to update the adjacent page index information. For details, please refer to the following step B6.

B6. Updating the adjacent page index information, the updated adjacent page index information includes the index information of the adjacent pages of the target page.

Exemplarily, continuing to refer to figure (b) in FIG. 12 , since the updated application icon displays the application icon set of the third page in the application folder, it is not difficult to understand that the adjacent page index information at this time It should include the index information of the second page and the index information of the first page, where the index information of the second page is the index information of the previous page of the target page, and the index information of the first page is the index information of the next page of the target page . In this way, when the user performs a page-turning operation next time, the electronic device can determine whether to turn a page up or a page down according to the page-turning operation, so that the next target can be determined from the updated adjacent page index information Index information for the page.

In the embodiment of the present application, a folder icon of an application folder is displayed, and the folder icon includes multiple application icons, and the multiple application icons are displayed in multiple pages. In response to the page turning operation on the folder icon, the first application icon set of the target page corresponding to the page turning operation is obtained, and the display content in the folder icon is updated, so that the updated folder icon displays the first application icon set App icon in . In this way, the user only needs to perform the page turning operation directly on the folder icon, and does not need to open the application folder before turning the page, which can improve the efficiency of finding the application icon, thereby improving the management efficiency of the application.

In addition, after the application folder is displayed, the adjacent page index information is determined from the first cache space. In this way, when a page turning operation is detected, the target index information can be directly determined from the adjacent page index information, so that according to the target index information , determining the set of application icons included in the target page corresponding to the target index information from the first cache space. In this way, the response speed to the page turning operation can be improved, especially when the application folder includes many pages of application icons, the speed of querying the target index information can be improved.

It should also be noted that, the above embodiments are described by taking the example of loading the application icon of the adjacent page or all the application icon sets in the application folder into the first cache space. In another embodiment, after the electronic device detects a page turning operation on the folder icon through the folder icon module, it can directly acquire the first set of application icons of the target page from the folder module, that is, also It is not necessary to preload the application icon of the adjacent page or all the collection of application icons in the application folder into the first cache space.
