Method and device for adjusting screen locking time as well as electronic terminal

Abstract

Disclosed are a method and a device for adjusting screen locking time, and an electronic terminal. Time interval values T1, T2,..., and TN between N times of consecutive screen locking and screen unlocking are acquired, and when it is determined that the acquired time interval values T1, T2,..., and TN are all in a set threshold range, a current screen locking time value is updated into the sum of the current screen locking time value and a preset time delay value. In the present invention, a usage situation in which the terminal automatically locks the screen and a user unlocks the screen is monitored in real time, and according to the time intervals between N times of consecutive screen locking and screen unlocking, it is determined whether the current screen locking time is appropriate in the current usage environment and situation. When the determining result is that the current screen locking time is inappropriate, the current screen locking time value is automatically updated into the current screen locking time value plus the preset time delay value, so as to achieve the objective of dynamically adjusting the screen locking time according to the current usage environment and situation, thereby effectively reducing the unlocking operations and screen locking settings of the user and improving satisfaction in the user experience.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and device for adjusting the lock screen time and an electronic terminal. Background technique [0002] At present, in order to avoid misuse and protect privacy, most mobile terminals in people's daily life generally support automatic screen lock, that is, if the user does not actively operate for a period of time, the terminal will automatically lock the screen. The delay time from when the user stops the operation to when the screen is automatically locked is commonly known as the automatic lock screen time (referred to as the lock screen time). Generally, the terminal will provide a set of lock screen time for the user to choose, such as 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute Wait. Once the lock screen time of the existing terminal is set, it is fixed unless the user actively modifies it. If the user does not set the lock screen time, the system will adopt the default value. Due to the different usage habit...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Due to the different usage habits of different users, the fixed lock screen time cannot be completely suitable for each user, or even if it is suitable for some scenarios of user use, it is not suitable for other usage scenarios

For example, setting a shorter lock screen time can effectively avoid misoperation of the terminal, but it will increase the user's unlocking operation and bring trouble to the user; while setting a longer lock screen time can reduce the user's unlocking operation, But it will increase the possibility of misoperation

Of course, users can also manually switch between different lock screen times according to different usage scenarios, but frequent manual switching is a burden for users.
