Abstract

A method and an apparatus for displaying a shortcut on a mobile terminal and a storage medium are provided. The method includes: acquiring a touch signal generated at a system status bar on a screen of a mobile terminal; and opening a shortcut display window in a case that the touch signal is acquired, and displaying a pre-selected shortcut of an application program in the shortcut display window. By using the above solution, efficiency of searching for a shortcut of an application program installed on a mobile terminal can be improved.

Claims

1. A method for displaying a shortcut on a mobile terminal, the method comprising a processor performing the following on the mobile terminal:

acquiring a touch signal generated at the system status bar;

opening a shortcut display window when the touch signal is acquired; and

displaying a pre-selected shortcut of an application in the shortcut display window.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the acquiring of the touch signal generated at the system status bar, comprises:

receiving a tap operation performed at the system status bar, and generating a tap touch signal according to the tap operation.

3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the acquiring of the touch signal generated at the system status bar, comprises:

receiving a slide operation performed at the system status bar, and generating a slide touch signal according to the slide operation, wherein a displacement value of the slide operation in a horizontal-axis direction reaches a preset threshold.

4. The method according to claim 3, wherein the receiving of the tap operation performed at the system status bar, comprises:

receiving a tap operation performed at a position where a triggering button is located in the system status bar.

5. The method according to claim 4, wherein the triggering button is an application icon of a target application;

and

the application icon is set in the system status bar by;

receiving an icon setting request sent by the target application, wherein the icon setting request carries display data and position information of the application icon; and

displaying, according to the display data of the application icon, the application icon of the target application at a position, which corresponds to the position information, in the system status bar.

6. The method according to claim 3, wherein the receiving of the slide operation performed at the system status bar, comprises:

receiving a slide operation of which a starting point is a position where a triggering button is located in the system status bar.

7. The method according to claim 6, wherein the triggering button is an application icon of a target application;

and

the application icon is set in the system status bar by;

receiving an icon setting request sent by the target application, wherein the icon setting request carries display data and position information of the application icon; and

displaying, according to the display data of the application icon, the application icon of the target application at a position, which corresponds to the position information, in the system status bar.

8. The method according to claim 1, wherein a shortcut of an application is pre-selected by:

receiving a shortcut display setting request, wherein the shortcut display setting request carries a shortcut identifier,

generating a display page in the shortcut display window according to the shortcut identifier; and

storing the generated display page;

wherein a shortcut corresponding to the shortcut identifier is set in the display page; and

the displaying of the pre-selected shortcut of an application in the shortcut display window, comprises;

displaying the stored display page in the shortcut display window.

9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the shortcut display setting request further carries arrangement order information corresponding to the shortcut identifier;

and

the method further comprises;

arranging the shortcut in the display page according to the arrangement order information.

10. The method according to claim 1, further comprising:

displaying a pre-stored function setting key in the shortcut display window.

11. The method according to claim 1, wherein the shortcut display window is displayed in a manner of a translucent floating layer.

12. An apparatus for displaying a shortcut on a mobile terminal, comprising at least a processor coupled to a memory which stores executable instruction codes, wherein the instruction codes when executed by the processor, configures the mobile terminal to:

provide a system status bar displayed on a screen of the mobile terminal, and acquire a touch signal generated at the system status bar; and

open a shortcut display window when the touch signal has been acquired, and display a pre-selected shortcut of an application in the shortcut display window.

13. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the mobile terminal is configured to:

receive a tap operation performed at the system status bar, and generate a tap touch signal according to the tap operation.

14. The apparatus according to claim 13, wherein in case that the mobile terminal receives a tap operation performed at the system status bar, the configured to receive a tap operation performed at a position where a triggering button is located in the system status bar.

15. The apparatus according to claim 14, wherein the triggering button is an application icon of a target application;

and the mobile terminal is further configured to;

receive an icon setting request sent by the target application, wherein the icon setting request carries display data and position information of the application icon; and

display, according to the display data of the application icon, the application icon of the target application at a position, which corresponds to the position information, in the system status bar.

16. The apparatus according to claim 14, wherein the mobile terminal is configured to:

receive a slide operation performed at the system status bar, and generate a slide touch signal according to the slide operation, wherein the displacement value of the slide operation in a horizontal-axis direction reaches a preset threshold.

17. The apparatus according to claim 16, wherein in case that the mobile terminal receives a slide operation performed at the system status bar, the acquiring module is configured to receive a slide operation of which a starting point is a position where a triggering button is located in the system status bar.

18. The apparatus according to claim 17, wherein the triggering button is an application icon of a target application;

and

the mobile terminal is further configured to;

receive an icon setting request sent by the target application, wherein the icon setting request carries display data and position information of the application icon; and

display, according to the display data of the application icon, the application icon of the target application at a position, which corresponds to the position information, in the system status bar.

19. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the mobile terminal is further configured to pre-select a shortcut of an application by:

receiving a shortcut display setting request, wherein the shortcut display setting request carries a shortcut identifier,
