Control method and device for mobile terminal and application program of mobile terminal

Abstract

Proposed are a mobile terminal and an application program control method and device therefor. The method comprises the following steps: monitoring screen locking state information about a mobile terminal; when the mobile terminal enters a screen locking state, acquiring one or more application programs running in the background; acquiring the frequency of use of each application program within a first preset time period; and if the frequency of use of the application program is less than a first preset threshold, according to a preset policy, controlling the application program to be closed. According to the method in the embodiments of the present invention, while guaranteeing the user's usage experience, the power consumption of the mobile terminal can be reduced, and the standby time of the mobile terminal can be prolonged, thereby effectively increasing the memory usage efficiency, achieving the balance between the user's usage habit and the energy consumption of the mobile terminal, and improving the user experience.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a control method and device for a mobile terminal and its application program. Background technique [0002] With the continuous increase of various application programs in the mobile terminal, the power consumption of these application programs has also become a key factor affecting the standby time of the mobile terminal. And when the user does not use the application program temporarily, the application program will be run in the background, but these applications often need to periodically access other hardware devices (such as external memory, wireless network or data network, etc.), which also consumes a lot of time. The power of the mobile terminal. To this end, the total power consumption of each application can be counted, and the applications can be sorted according to the total power consumption. When the application is running in the background, the applica...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventor found that the prior art has at least the following problems: the prior art closes the application program with high power consumption running in the background. Running in the background consumes more power; and if an application running in the background is not used by the user for a long time, even if the application consumes a small amount of power while running in the background, for mobile terminals That said, running the app in the background for long periods of time can also use a lot of power

Therefore, the power saving effect of the prior art is poor, it is difficult to effectively prolong the standby time of the mobile terminal, and the user experience is poor.
