Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a privacy space operation method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The implementation of the method is described in detail below with reference to this figure.

It should be noted that the method is applied to a terminal device having a folding screen, where the folding screen includes a first screen and a second screen.

Here, the folding screen may divide the screen into the first screen and the second screen by an actual physical device, such as a hinge, thereby achieving contact or separation between the first screen and the second screen. The folding screen is a flexible screen, and can be divided into a first screen and a second screen according to the bending position of the screen through bending operation of a user; or the folding screen is divided into a first screen and a second screen by adopting default settings of the system.

The method may specifically comprise the steps of:

step 101, receiving a first input of a first program icon of a first application program when the folding screen is in an unfolded state.

In this step, whether the folding screen is in the expansion state can be judged by detecting an included angle between the first screen and the second screen of the folding screen.

Specifically, when it is detected that an included angle between the first screen and the second screen is larger than a preset threshold value, for example, 90 degrees, it is determined that the folding screen is in the unfolded state. Here, the preset threshold may be set by itself or may be set by default.

Here, the first application includes one or more applications.

It should be noted that the first input is a preset input, and the first input may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a click input, a press input, a long press input, a pinch input, a drag input, a slide input, and a swipe input, that is, the first input may be one of the above-mentioned inputs, or may also be a combination input of two or more of the above-mentioned inputs.

And 102, responding to the first input, and displaying the first program icon at the target position of the target screen.

Here, the target screen includes the first screen and/or the second screen.

In this step, when the terminal device detects that the program icon of the first application program is located at the target position according to the first input, the terminal device responds to the first input received in step 101, and displays the first program icon at the target position of the target screen.

Here, the target screen is a screen preset by the user, and the target position is also a position preset by the user. That is, the user can set in advance at which position of which screen the program icon of the application is displayed. In other words, the screen on which the program icon of the application program preset by the user is displayed and the corresponding specific position can be regarded as the password of the privacy space, while the screens on which the program icons of the application programs correspondingly set by different users are located are different, and the specific positions of the screens are different, so that other people except the user or the person informed of the password cannot open the privacy space of the user, and the security of the privacy of the user is improved.

Step 103, responding to the second input, starting a target privacy space, wherein the target privacy space comprises: the privacy space of the first application and/or the privacy space of the second application.

Here, the second input is a first bending input to the folding screen and a preset input to the terminal device, and the second application program and the first application program have a preset association relationship.

In this step, the first bending input is a preset input. The folding input specifically refers to a folding or unfolding input to the folding screen.

Specifically, whether the input of the user to the folding screen is the first bending input or not can be determined by detecting the bending state of the folding screen; and responding to the first bending input of the folding screen if the input of the user to the folding screen is determined to be the first bending input through the bending state of the folding screen.

More specifically, the detection of the bending state of the folding screen can be realized by detecting an included angle between the first screen and the second screen of the folding screen.

Here, the preset input to the terminal device may include, but is not limited to, a blocking input to a camera on the terminal device, a preset operation to a folding screen of the terminal device (e.g., a three-finger sliding input, a double-click input, a three-click input, etc.), a flip operation to the terminal device, and the like.

It should be noted that, if the first application includes only one application, the privacy space of the first application may be opened, or the privacy space of a second application having a preset association relationship with the first application may be opened. Of course, the privacy space of the first application and the privacy space of the second application having a pre-established relationship with the first application may also be opened at the same time.

If the first application includes at least two applications, at least one of the privacy spaces of one of the at least two applications or a specified number of the applications (specifically, which is preset by the user) may be opened, the privacy spaces of all of the at least two applications may be opened, and the privacy space of a second application having a pre-established relationship with the at least two applications may be opened.

In addition, in response to the input, if the privacy space of the second application program associated with the first application program is opened, the specific positions of screens where program icons of the application programs correspondingly set by different users are located are different, and the association relationship (namely the preset association relationship) between the first application program and the privacy space of the second application program, which is preset by different users, is different, so that the security of the user privacy is further improved.
