Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure provides a volume adjustment method, a storage medium and a mobile terminal. In the method, physical exercise information of a user is acquired. It is determined whether a mobile terminal meets a preset volume adjustment condition according to the physical exercise information. When the mobile terminal meets the preset volume adjustment condition, a volume adjustment level corresponding to the physical exercise information is determined. A volume of the mobile terminal is adjusted according to the volume adjustment level.

Claims

1. A volume adjustment method, executed by a mobile terminal, the method comprising:

acquiring physical exercise information of a user;

determining whether the mobile terminal meets a preset volume adjustment condition according to the physical exercise information;

determining a volume adjustment level corresponding to the physical exercise information, when the mobile terminal meets the preset volume adjustment condition;

acquiring a difference between the volume adjustment level and a current volume level of the mobile terminal;

adjusting a volume of the mobile terminal in a linear manner, when the difference is less than a preset level difference; and

adjusting the volume in a non-linear manner, when the difference is equal to or greater than the preset level difference, wherein the non-linear manner comprises one of a concave-function-style incrementing or decrementing manner, a convex-function-style incrementing or decrementing manner, and a firstly increasing-then decreasing-finally gradually increasing or firstly decreasing-then increasing-finally gradually decreasing manner.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

determining a frequency adjustment level corresponding to the physical exercise information; and

adjusting frequency of a sound being played by the mobile terminal according to the frequency adjustment level.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

determining a frequency adjustment level corresponding to the physical exercise information; and

switching from the sound being played to a piece of music, of which beats are at a speed matched with the frequency adjustment level.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the physical exercise information comprises at least one of the following:

physical exercise intensity, physical exercise duration, movement speed or frequency, or estimated energy consumed by physical exercise.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein acquiring physical exercise information of a user comprises at least one of the following:

acquiring the physical exercise information of the user by means of one or more acceleration sensors in at least one of the mobile terminal or an external device connected to the mobile terminal;

acquiring the physical exercise information of the user by means of positioning data from at least one of the mobile terminal or the external device connected to the mobile terminal;

or

acquiring biometric information of the user by means of at least one of the mobile terminal or the external device connected to the mobile terminal, and determining the physical exercise information of the user according to the biometric information.

6. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements a volume adjustment method, the method comprising:

acquiring physical exercise information of a user;

determining whether a mobile terminal meets a preset volume adjustment condition according to the physical exercise information;

determining a volume adjustment level corresponding to the physical exercise information, when the mobile terminal meets the preset volume adjustment condition;

acquiring a difference between the volume adjustment level and a current volume level of the mobile terminal;

adjusting a volume of the mobile terminal in a linear manner, when the difference is less than a preset level difference; and

adjusting the volume in a non-linear manner, when the difference is equal to or greater than the preset level difference, wherein the non-linear manner comprises one of a concave-function-style incrementing or decrementing manner, a convex-function-style incrementing or decrementing manner, and a firstly increasing-then decreasing-finally gradually increasing or firstly decreasing-then increasing-finally gradually decreasing manner.

7. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 6, wherein the method further comprises:

determining a frequency adjustment level corresponding to the physical exercise information; and

adjusting frequency of a sound being played by the mobile terminal according to the frequency adjustment level, or switching from the sound being played to a piece of music, of which beats are at a speed matched with the frequency adjustment level.

8. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 6, wherein the physical exercise information comprises at least one of the following:

physical exercise intensity, physical exercise duration, movement speed or frequency, or estimated energy consumed by physical exercise.
