The method that disclosure embodiment provides, by obtaining the index idsplay order of application program, after the index of application type belonging to the index idsplay order explicit identification application program of application program, detect application type selected in index, and the application information of all application programs under showing selected application type carrys out indexes applications program, the indexed mode of all application programs is shown with respect to list, not only be convenient to user and find required application program, and the efficiency of search for application can be improved.

Fig. 2 is the process flow diagram of the indexing means of a kind of application program according to an exemplary embodiment, and as shown in Figure 2, the indexing means of application program is used for, in terminal, comprising the following steps.

In step s 201, the index idsplay order of application program is obtained.

Due to indexes applications program normally by certain instruction triggers, again due to when indexes applications program, usually can index be shown; therefore; in order to trigger display index, when indexes applications program, need the index idsplay order first obtaining application program.About the mode of the index idsplay order of acquisition application program, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.During concrete enforcement, include but not limited to: obtain and preset gesture, using default gesture as the application index instruction got.About the concrete action of default gesture, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.Such as, default gesture can be two finger kneading action, also can do for the left slip of finger, etc.

In step S202, the index of application type belonging to each application program of index idsplay order explicit identification of application program.

Wherein, belonging to each application program of index idsplay order explicit identification of application program application type index before, also need: the application type determining each application program, and classified finishing carried out to the application program belonging to same application type.

About the mode of application type determining each application program, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.During concrete enforcement, the application type of each application program can be searched from application management system, thus determine the application type of each application program according to lookup result; Also can obtain the application type of user for each application program definition, thus be the application type of application type as each application program determined of each application program definition using user.

Wherein, when searching the application type of each application program from application management system, include but not limited to: the title first obtaining each application program, and in application management system, search the mapping relations at least comprising application name and Application Type set up in advance, using the application type of Application Type corresponding for application name consistent with the title of each application program in these mapping relations as each application program.About obtaining the mode that user is the application type of each application program definition, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.

About the mode of the application program belonging to same application type being carried out to classified finishing, can have a variety of.Such as, due to when operating application program, the application icon corresponding often by application program realizes, therefore, after taxonomic revision can being carried out to each application program, under application icon corresponding for the application program belonging to same application type is stored to same classification folder, thus obtain each classification folder storing application icon corresponding to each application program.Wherein, namely a classification folder represents an application type.

About the mode be stored to by application icon corresponding for the application program belonging to same application type under same classification folder, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.Such as, if the application type of application A and application program B is " social activity ", then under application icon B corresponding for application icon A corresponding for application A and application program B being stored to same classification folder.

In addition, in order to identify the application type of application program corresponding to application icon that each classification folder stores, the application type of the application program that the application icon that each classification folder of each classification folder called after can be stored is corresponding.Such as, if the application type of application program corresponding to application icon that a certain classification folder stores is " social activity ", then by this classification folder called after " social activity ".

Alternatively, because an application program may belong at least two kinds of different application types simultaneously, therefore, this application program can be found in different classification folders, under application icon corresponding for this application program can being stored to classification folder corresponding to different application type belonging to it for the ease of subsequent user.Now, after the application type determining each application program, can also determine whether arbitrary application program belongs at least two kinds of application types simultaneously; If arbitrary application program belongs at least two kinds of application types simultaneously, then under the classification folder of often kind of application type belonging to application icon corresponding for this arbitrary application program being added to.

Such as, if application type of determining that application A both belonged to " social activity ", " amusement " application type is also belonged to, then under application icon corresponding for application A can being added into " social activity " classification folder and under " amusement " classification folder.

Alternatively, for the ease of the application type of each application program of user management, after being stored under same classification folder by application icon corresponding for the application program belonging to same application type, the method that disclosure embodiment provides also supports that user revises the application type of each application program as required.Such as, when the application icon A that storage application A is corresponding, under application icon A is stored in classification folder A, now, if under user thinks that application icon A should be stored to classification folder B, then under can being dragged to classification folder B by dragging application icon A.

Alternatively, because user at any time may down load application program, therefore, terminal may increase application program newly at any time, correspondingly also just may have newly-increased application icon corresponding to newly-increased application program at any time.Therefore, after the application type of the application program that the application icon stored by each classification folder of each classification folder called after is corresponding, the newly-increased application icon determining whether that newly-increased application program is corresponding in real time is also needed; If there is the newly-increased application icon that newly-increased application program is corresponding, then determine the application type of newly-increased application program; Under newly-increased application icon being added into the classification folder of the application icon of the application type storing newly-increased application program.

About the mode determining whether the newly-increased application icon that newly-increased application program is corresponding, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.During concrete enforcement, whether can download new application program and realized by detecting user in real time.If detect that user has downloaded new application program, then determine to have increased application program newly, and define newly-increased application icon corresponding to newly-increased application program further.About the mode of application type determining newly-increased application program, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.During concrete enforcement, can determine that the mode of the application type of each application program is consistent with above-mentioned, specifically see the above-mentioned content determining the application type of each application program, can not repeat them here.About newly-increased application icon is added into the application type storing newly-increased application program application icon classification folder under mode, under including but not limited to that this newly-increased application icon being added into name is called the classification folder of type belonging to the newly-increased application program that this newly-increased application icon is corresponding.Such as, if the application type of newly-increased application program is " social activity ", then under newly-increased application icon corresponding for this newly-increased application program being added into " social activity " classification folder.

In addition, also may delete at any time due to user or unload application program, therefore, also need the operation detecting user's deletion or unloading application program in real time, and after detecting that user deletes or unload the operation of application program, user to be deleted or the application icon corresponding to application program of unloading is deleted from each classification folder.

Alternatively, because usual user operates each application program by the application icon that desktop shows.Therefore, all application programs are being classified, and after application icon corresponding for the application program belonging to same type is stored to same classification folder, when desktop shows the icon of each application program, can only show each classification folder, desktop can be made so cleaner and tidier.But, if only show each classification folder at desktop, then each when operating application program, all need search for the application icon of needs under each classification folder, make troublesome poeration.In order to overcome this technical matters, the method that disclosure embodiment provides is before desktop shows each application icon, conventional application program or popular application program can also be determined, and create the quick application icon of the correspondence of conventional application program or popular application program, thus when showing each application icon, each quick application icon can be shown at the first display screen of desktop, and show each classification folder at the second display screen of desktop.Wherein, about the content determining conventional application program or popular application program, will describe in subsequent step, wouldn't repeat at this.

Show each quick application icon about the first display screen at desktop, and show the mode of each classification folder at the second display screen of desktop, the embodiment of the present invention does not do concrete restriction.Wherein, the first display screen and second display screen can be the different screen viewing area on same display screen, and can be different display screen, disclosure embodiment do concrete restriction to this yet.In addition, the quantity of the first display screen or second display screen can be one, also can be multiple.Wherein, the quantity of the first display screen quantity of quick application icon that can be able to show in conjunction with the quantity of quick application icon and each display screen and determining.The quantity of second display screen can the quantity of combining classification file and each display screen quantity of classification folder that can show and determining.

Wherein, when the first display screen of desktop shows quick application icon corresponding at least one application program, include but not limited to be realized by the following two kinds mode:

First kind of way: because user uses the frequency of each application program not identical, therefore, quick application icon that can be corresponding by application program high for frequency of utilization is shown in user-friendly place.Therefore, when the first display screen of desktop shows quick application icon corresponding at least one application program, the frequency of utilization of the application program that each quick application icon is corresponding can be determined; According to each quick application icon of frequency of utilization arrangement of application program corresponding to each quick application icon in the position of desktop, and according to the first display screen display each quick application icon of rank results at desktop.

About the mode of frequency of utilization determining the application program that each quick application icon is corresponding, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.During concrete enforcement, a predetermined period can be set, and add up the access times of each application program in this predetermined period in advance, thus determine the frequency of utilization of each application program according to the access times of each application program of statistics in predetermined period.Such as, if predetermined period is 6 hours, and user uses the number of times of a certain application program to be 12 times in these 6 hours, then the frequency of utilization of this application program is 2 times/hour.About the concrete duration of predetermined period, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.

About the mode of the frequency of utilization each quick application icon of arrangement in the position of desktop according to application program corresponding to each quick application icon, can have a variety of.Such as, the position of reference point can be obtained, and each quick application icon is arranged in the distance of reference point by near to position far away according to the descending order of the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon.Wherein, the position of reference point can be the position of first, the upper left corner placement application icon of display screen, also can be the position that application icon is placed at display screen center, etc.

Such as, when the position of application icon is placed in first, the upper left corner that reference point is display screen, then can start to arrange application program corresponding to each quick application icon from the position that application icon is placed in first, the upper left corner of display screen according to the order that the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon is descending.Wherein, when the application program that each quick application icon of arrangement is corresponding, can arrange from left to right, can arrange from top to bottom yet, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction to this.

It should be noted that, when according to the position of each quick application icon of frequency of utilization arrangement of application program corresponding to each quick application icon at desktop, if the frequency of utilization of certain two or more application program is identical, now, when the quick application icon that these application programs of arrangement are corresponding, can according to the sequencing arrangement of the initial of the title of the set-up time of these application programs or these application programs, etc.

In addition, because the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon can constantly change, therefore, the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon can be detected in real time, and upgrade the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon, and then each quick application icon of frequency of utilization arrangement of the real-time application program corresponding according to each quick application icon is in the position of desktop.

About the mode showing each quick application icon according to rank results at the first display screen of desktop, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.

The second way: the application program corresponding due to each quick application icon may belong to same application type, therefore, when arranging each quick application icon, also can arrange according to the application type of application program corresponding to each quick application icon, and then the quick application icon that the application program that comprises of arrangement often kind of application type is corresponding.Therefore, when the first display screen of desktop shows quick application icon corresponding at least one application program, all right: the frequency of utilization determining the application program that each quick application icon is corresponding; The application program corresponding to each quick application icon is classified according to application type, and determines total frequency of utilization of the application program of often kind of application type according to the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon; According to the quick application icon that the application program of total frequency of utilization arrangement often kind of application type of the application program of often kind of application type is corresponding, and according to quick application icon corresponding to each application program of frequency of utilization arrangement often kind of application type of application program each in the application program of often kind of application type; Quick application icon corresponding at least one application program is shown at the first display screen of desktop according to rank results.

Wherein, when determining total frequency of utilization of the application program of often kind of application type according to the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon, include but not limited to: the frequency of utilization of adding up application program corresponding to each quick application icon, the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding for the quick application icon belonging to same application type is added up, obtains total frequency of utilization of the application program of often kind of application type.Wherein, add up the principle of the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon, consistent with the principle of the frequency of utilization determining the application program that each quick application icon is corresponding in above-mentioned first kind of way, specifically see the content in above-mentioned first kind of way, can not repeat them here.

In addition, when the quick application icon that the application program of total frequency of utilization arrangement often kind of application type of the application program according to often kind of application type is corresponding, first can obtain the position of reference point, and according to the order that total frequency of utilization of the application program of often kind of application type is descending, quick application icon corresponding for the application program of often kind of application type is arranged in the distance of reference point by nearly position extremely far away.Wherein, the position of reference point can be the position of first, the upper left corner placement application icon of display screen, also can be the position that application icon is placed at display screen center, etc.

Such as, when the position of application icon is placed in first, the upper left corner that reference point is display screen, then the quick application icon that the application program that can start to arrange this kind of application type according to the order that total frequency of utilization of the application program of often kind of application type is descending from the position of application icon is placed in first, the upper left corner of display screen comprises.Wherein, when the quick application icon that the application program arranging different application type is corresponding, can arrange from left to right, can arrange from top to bottom yet, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction to this.

Further, arrange the mode of quick application icon corresponding to each application program of every type about the frequency of utilization according to application program each in the application program of often kind of application type, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.Such as, before quick application icon that can be corresponding by application program high for frequency of utilization in each application program of often kind of application type comes, etc.

In addition, the method that disclosure embodiment provides also is supported to adjust each quick application icon as required in the position of the first display screen by user.Wherein, user, can be realized by the mode dragging quick application icon when the position of the first display screen at each quick application icon of adjustment.

Show the mode of each classification folder about the second display screen at desktop, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction equally.During concrete enforcement, include but not limited to: the frequency of utilization determining each application program, and determine total frequency of utilization of the application program that application icon that each classification folder comprises is corresponding according to the frequency of utilization of each application program; Total frequency of utilization of the application program that the application icon comprised according to each classification folder is corresponding arranges all classification folders, and shows each classification according to rank results at the second display screen of desktop and divide file.

Wherein, determine the frequency of utilization of each application program, and determine the principle of total frequency of utilization of the application program that application icon that each classification folder comprises is corresponding shows in the mode of quick application icon corresponding at least one application program second way with above-mentioned the first display screen at desktop according to the frequency of utilization of each application program in, determine the principle of the frequency of utilization of the application program that each quick application icon is corresponding, and determine that the principle of total frequency of utilization of the application program of often kind of application type is consistent according to the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon, specifically can see determining the frequency of utilization of the application program that each quick application icon is corresponding in the above-mentioned second way and determining the content of total frequency of utilization of the application program of often kind of application type according to the frequency of utilization of application program corresponding to each quick application icon, do not repeat them here.

Total frequency of utilization about application program corresponding to the application icon comprised according to each classification folder arranges the principle of all classification folders, it is consistent in the principle of the position of desktop that the frequency of utilization of the application program corresponding according to each quick application icon shown in the mode of quick application icon corresponding at least one application program in first kind of way with above-mentioned the first display screen at desktop arranges each quick application icon, specifically see the content in above-mentioned first kind of way, can not repeat them here.Show at the second display screen of desktop the mode that each classification divides file about according to rank results, disclosure embodiment does not do concrete restriction.

It should be noted that, the method provided due to disclosure embodiment, when display application icon, had both shown the quick application icon that at least one application program is corresponding, also show each classification folder.Be directed to the application program setting up quick application icon, under the classification folder that the application icon of its correspondence is also present in belonging to it.In such cases, all can operating application program be realized in order to during application icon that this quick application icon stored under ensureing the application program that application icon swift to operate is corresponding or activity classification file is corresponding, the application icon equivalence stored under needing to ensure quick application icon and classification folder.That is, user uses identical action no matter to be application icon swift to operate, or the application icon stored under activity classification file, all can reach identical effect.Such as, user can double-click quick application icon A and open application A corresponding to this quick application icon A, and the application icon A that also can double-click under classification folder opens this application A.

Quick application icon corresponding at least one application program is shown at the first display screen of desktop, and the classification folder of application icon corresponding to the application program of the storage same type obtained after the second display screen display of desktop is to the classification of each application program, the application icon that desktop can not only be made to show is neatly orderly, and be convenient to the application program that user operation has created quick application icon, thus make the process of operating application program simple, the efficiency of operating application program can be improved.

Further, after classified finishing is carried out to the application program belonging to same application type, belonging to each application program of index idsplay order explicit identification of application program during application type, in order to make the index shown be carry out according to certain rule, can first sort to the often kind of application type to be shown obtained of classifying, obtain ranking results, thus belonging to each application program of ranking results explicit identification the index of application type.

Wherein, can have a variety of to the mode that to be shown often kind application type sorts.Such as, can sort to often kind of application type according to the initial etc. of the application type title of often kind of application type.But, because user uses the frequency of each application program not identical, therefore, the application type belonging to application program high for frequency of utilization can be come before index, so that user search is to the application program needed.Therefore, when sorting to be shown often kind application type, include but not limited to realize as follows:

Step one: the frequency of utilization determining each application program, and the total frequency of utilization determining all application programs belonging to often kind of application type according to the frequency of utilization of each application program.

Wherein, determine the principle of the frequency of utilization of each application program, show with above-mentioned the first display screen at desktop in the first kind of way in the quick application icon of at least one application program and determine that the principle of the frequency of utilization of each application program is consistent, specifically see the content of frequency of utilization determining each application program in first kind of way, can not repeat them here.
