The embodiments of the present application provide a method and device for controlling the operation of an application.

The following is a detailed description of the application program operation control method provided by the embodiment of the present application through specific embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

It should be noted that the application program operation control method provided in the embodiment of the present application is applicable to electronic devices. In practical applications, the electronic devices may include: mobile terminals such as smart phones, tablet computers, personal digital assistants, etc., and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

FIG1 is a flow chart of a method for controlling the operation of an application program provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG1 , the method may include the following steps: step 101, step 102, step 103 and step 104, wherein:

In step 101, a first operation for a target application is received and a first operation parameter of the first operation is obtained, wherein the first operation is used to trigger the electronic device to switch from the target application to the system desktop, and the first operation includes: an operation triggered by a navigation gesture, or an operation triggered by a navigation key, and the first operation parameter includes a press duration.

In an embodiment of the present application, the target application may be any application installed in the electronic device; or, the target application may be an application of a specific type installed in the electronic device; or, the target application may be a user-specified application installed in the electronic device, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In an embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device supports users to use navigation gestures and return to the system desktop by swiping up from the bottom, the first operation is an operation triggered by the navigation gesture. Specifically, the first operation is an upward swiping operation starting from the bottom of the electronic device screen.

In an embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device supports the user to use the navigation key, such as the home key to return to the system desktop, the first operation is the operation triggered by the navigation key. Specifically, the first operation is the operation of pressing the navigation key.

In step 102, it is determined whether the pressing duration reaches a preset duration, and if so, the first area and the second area are displayed on the screen.

In the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device supports the user to use navigation gestures and return to the system desktop by swiping up from the bottom, determining whether the pressing time of the first operation reaches the preset time is actually determining whether the user immediately lets go when swiping up from the bottom of the screen. At this time, the user has the intention to exit the application and return to the system desktop, and different responses will be made depending on whether the user lets go immediately.

In the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device supports the user to use the navigation key, such as the home key to return to the system desktop, determining whether the pressing time of the first operation reaches the preset time is actually determining whether the user releases the button immediately after clicking the navigation key. At this time, the user has the intention to exit the application and return to the system desktop, and different responses will be made according to whether the user releases the button immediately.

In the embodiment of the present application, if the pressing time reaches the preset time, indicating that the user has not let go, two areas, namely the first area and the second area, are displayed on the screen of the electronic device. If the pressing time is less than the preset time, indicating that the user immediately lets go, it is determined to close the target application after switching to the system desktop.

In the embodiment of the present application, the positions of the first area and the second area can be determined according to the user's behavior habits or user settings, and then the first area and the second area can be displayed on the screen. In practical applications, the first area can be the left half of the screen, and the second area can be the right half of the screen; or the first area can be the upper half of the screen, and the second area can be the lower half of the screen.

In the embodiment of the present application, prompts are displayed on the first area and the second area, wherein the prompts are used to indicate the correspondence between the user operation and the running mode of the target application after switching to the system desktop.

In one example, as shown in FIG2 , the electronic device 20 supports the user to use navigation gestures and return to the system desktop by swiping up from the bottom. When the pressing time of the user's first operation reaches a preset time, a first area 21 and a second area 22 are displayed on the screen of the electronic device 20. A prompt "Move your finger to this area to close background operation" is displayed on the first area 21, and a prompt "Move your finger to this area to keep background operation" is displayed on the second area 22.

In another example, as shown in FIG3 , the electronic device 30 supports the user to use the navigation key to return to the system desktop. When the pressing time of the user's first operation reaches a preset time, a first area 31 and a second area 32 are displayed on the screen of the electronic device 30. A prompt "Move your finger to this area to close background operation" is displayed on the first area 31, and a prompt "Move your finger to this area to keep background operation" is displayed on the second area 32.

In step 103, a second operation on the screen area is received, and a second operation parameter of the second operation is acquired, wherein the second operation parameter includes: an operation area and an operation type.

In the embodiment of the present application, the purpose of obtaining the second operation parameter of the second operation is to determine whether the second operation is triggered in the first area or the second area, and to determine whether the operation type of the second operation is a sliding operation, a click operation, or a long press operation, etc.

In step 104, it is determined whether the target application is still running in the background after switching to the system desktop according to the second operating parameter.

In one implementation provided in the present application, the above step 104 may specifically include the following steps:

When the second operation is an operation of sliding to the first area, that is, the operation area of the second operation is the first area, and the operation type is a sliding operation, determining to close the target application after switching to the system desktop;

When the second operation is an operation of sliding to the second area, that is, the operation area of the second operation is the second area, and the operation type is a sliding operation, it is determined that the target application is still running in the background after switching to the system desktop.

In one example, when the electronic device supports the user to use navigation gestures and return to the system desktop by swiping up from the bottom, the user swipes up from the bottom of the screen. At this time, the user has the intention to exit the application and return to the system desktop, and different responses will be made depending on whether the user lets go immediately. Specifically, if the user lets go immediately, the application will not be kept running in the background and will return to the system desktop. If the user does not let go immediately, two left and right areas are displayed on the screen, and prompts are generated in each of the left and right areas. As shown in Figure 2, if the user slides his finger to the left area, the application will not be kept running in the background and will return to the system desktop. If the user slides his finger to the right area, the application will be kept running in the background and will return to the system desktop. For example, the video application keeps the video to continue playing, the download application continues to download in the background, etc., and returns to the system desktop at the same time.

In another example, when the electronic device supports the user to use the navigation key to return to the system desktop, the user clicks the navigation key. At this point, the user has the intention to exit the application and return to the system desktop, and different responses will be made depending on whether the user lets go immediately. Specifically, if the user lets go immediately after clicking the navigation key, the application will not be kept running in the background and will return to the system desktop. If the user does not let go immediately after clicking the navigation key, two left and right areas are displayed on the screen, and prompts are generated in each of the left and right areas. As shown in Figure 3, if the user slides his finger to the left area, the application will not be kept running in the background and will return to the system desktop. If the user slides his finger to the right area, the application will be kept running in the background and will return to the system desktop. For example, the video application will keep the video playing, the download application will continue downloading in the background, etc., and will return to the system desktop at the same time.

It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, when the user uses a navigation gesture or navigation key to return to the system desktop from an application, the user can quickly choose whether to keep the application running in the background through long pressing and sliding operations. The operation is convenient and fast, which improves the user experience.

As can be seen from the above embodiments, in this embodiment, when receiving a first operation for triggering the electronic device to switch from a target application to a system desktop, the pressing duration of the first operation can be obtained, and it is determined that the pressing duration of the first operation reaches a preset duration, and the first area and the second area are displayed on the screen; then a second operation for the screen area is received, and the operation area and operation type of the second operation are obtained, and according to the operation area and operation type of the second operation, it is determined whether the target application is still running in the background after switching to the system desktop. Compared with the prior art, in the embodiment of the present application, when the user exits the application and switches to the system desktop, he only needs to simply adjust the pressing duration of the exit operation and perform simple operations on the area displayed on the screen to choose whether to keep the application running in the background, and the operation is relatively simple and quick.

It should be noted that the execution subject of the application program operation control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may be the application program operation control device, or a control module in the application program operation control device for executing the operation control method for loading the application program. In the embodiment of the present application, the application program operation control device provided in the embodiment of the present application is described by taking the application program operation control method for loading the application program as an example.
