Problems solved by technology

However, this free trial mechanism for paid applications requires a good segmentation of basic services and value-added services, so it is difficult to develop
For each different paid application, it is necessary to develop a corresponding free trial mechanism, which not only brings a large workload to the developer, but also increases the development cost of the corresponding paid application, resulting in a waste of resources

[0028] refer to image 3 As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a trial method for a paid application, and the trial method for a paid application includes the following steps:

[0029] Step S1, when it is detected that an application is started, it is judged whether the application is a paid application that can be tried;

[0030] Step S2, if the application is a paid application available for trial, then determine whether the application is in the trial period;

[0031] Step S3, if the application is in the trial period, monitor the operation of the application, and monitor whether the trial period of the application is over;

[0032] In step S4, if the trial period of the application is over, restricting the operation of the application.

[0033] According to the trial method of the above-mentioned paid application, by monitoring the operation of the paid application in the trial period, when the trial period of the paid application is monitored,...

[0059] According to the trial method of the paid application in the first embodiment, it is judged whether the application is in the trial period and whether the trial period of the application is over according to the local running time of the application corresponding to the currently bound user account. However, at different times, the same user account may be bound to the application in different terminals. Therefore, the local running time of the application bound to the user account in terminal 1 is not related to the local running time in other terminals (such as terminal 4 ).

[0060] In this case, even if the trial period of the application bound to the user account in terminal 1 ends due to the local running time reaching the trial time, in terminal 4, as long as the local running of the application bound to the user account If the duration does not reach the trial period, the trial period has not yet ended, and the application bound to the user account can still tem...

[0076] refer to Figure 10 As shown, the third embodiment of the present invention provides a trial device 100 for paid applications, which includes a first judgment module 101, a monitoring module 102, a binding module 103, a second judgment module 104, a monitoring module 105, a control module 106 and Update module 107. It can be understood that the above-mentioned modules refer to computer programs or program segments for performing one or more specific functions. In addition, the distinction between the above modules does not mean that the actual program code must also be separated.

[0077] The first judging module 101 is used for judging whether the application is a paid application that can be used for trial when it is detected that the application is started. The first judging module 101 can judge whether the application is a paid application that can be tried according to the installation information of the application. If the application is a paid application that...

Abstract

The invention relates to a paid application trying method comprising the following steps that when starting of an application is detected, whether the application is a paid application capable of being tried is judged; if the application is the paid application capable of being tried, whether the application is in a trying period is judged; if the application is in the trying period, the operation situation of the application is monitored and ending of the trying period of the application is monitored; and if the trying period of the application ends, operation of the application is limited. The invention also provides a paid application trying device. With utilization of the method, development cost of the paid application can be reduced, and expansion of user groups of the paid application is facilitated so that the paid application trying method has characteristics of being simple and easy to carry out.

Description

technical field [0001] The specific embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of software applications, and in particular to a trial method and device for paid applications. Background technique [0002] The development of the Internet has brought various software application products, such as instant messaging applications, social networking applications, game applications, translation applications and so on. These applications can usually be presented to users in an application market in a centralized manner for users to browse, download and use. Wherein, for some paid applications, the user must pay first before using these paid applications. However, users cannot be sure whether they really need these paid applications without using them before, so they will hesitate to pay for them. This kind of paid application shuts out many potential users and loses the glorious market it deserves. [0003] In order to solve this problem, some paid applica...
