First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for controlling a display of an electronic device to provide an application management interface comprising:
- receiving installed application identifiers corresponding to all applications installed on the electronic device;
controlling the display to generate at least one of the installed application identifiers;
receiving active application identifiers corresponding to all active applications;
controlling the display to generate at least one of the active application identifiers in conjunction with the at least one of the installed application identifiers; and
in response to an input, invoking an application corresponding to one of the installed application identifiers or one of the active application identifiers.
