Among them, the user has privacy protection requirements for some files (such as photos or video files, etc.) stored in the terminal.

现有技术中，在终端处于隐私保护模式的场景时，该终端中可以包括用于隐藏需要隐私保护的文件的隐私区域。其中，用户控制终端开启隐私区域时，终端通常显示提示消息以提示用户输入特定密码或特定手势；用户输入该特定密码或特定手势使得终端开启隐私区域，并可以将需要隐私保护的应用程序(如图库应用或视频应用等)的图标拖入该隐私区域内，从而终端可以通过该隐私区域隐藏该应用程序的图标，以对该应用程序进行隐私保护。在用户使用该应用程序时，终端可以显示相同的提示消息，使得用户可以通过相同的输入控制终端开启隐私区域，以使终端在隐私区域显示该应用程序的图标，从而用户可以操作该应用程序的图标使用该应用程序。In the prior art, when the terminal is in a privacy protection mode, the terminal may include a privacy area for hiding files requiring privacy protection. Among them, when the user controls the terminal to open the privacy area, the terminal usually displays a prompt message to prompt the user to enter a specific password or a specific gesture; the user enters the specific password or a specific gesture to enable the terminal to open the privacy area, and applications that require privacy protection (such as Gallery application or video application, etc.) into the privacy area, so that the terminal can hide the application icon through the privacy area to protect the privacy of the application. When the user uses the application, the terminal can display the same prompt message, so that the user can control the terminal to open the privacy area through the same input, so that the terminal displays the icon of the application in the privacy area, so that the user can operate the application. icon to use the application.

存在的问题是，用户控制终端开启隐私区域时，终端需要接收到用户输入特定的密码或特定手势，才能开启隐私区域。如此，导致终端开启隐私区域的过程较为复杂。The existing problem is that when the user controls the terminal to open the privacy area, the terminal needs to receive a specific password or a specific gesture input by the user to open the privacy area. In this way, the process of enabling the privacy zone by the terminal is relatively complicated.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图，对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本发明保护的范围。The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

本文中术语“和/或”，是一种描述关联对象的关联关系，表示可以存在三种关系，例如，A和/或B，可以表示：单独存在A，同时存在A和B，单独存在B这三种情况。本文中符号“/”表示关联对象是或者的关系，例如A/B表示A或者B。The term "and/or" in this article is an association relationship describing associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and/or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone These three situations. The symbol "/" in this document indicates that the associated object is an or relationship, for example, A/B indicates A or B.

本发明的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”、“第二”和“第三”等是用于区别不同的对象，而不是用于描述对象的特定顺序。例如，第一输入、第二输入和第三输入等是用于区别不同的输入，而不是用于描述输入的特定顺序。The terms "first", "second" and "third" in the specification and claims of the present invention are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order of objects. For example, the first input, the second input, the third input, etc. are used to distinguish different inputs, rather than to describe a specific sequence of inputs.

在本发明实施例中，“示例性的”或者“例如”等词用于表示作例子、例证或说明。本发明实施例中被描述为“示例性的”或者“例如”的任何实施例或设计方案不应被解释为比其它实施例或设计方案更优选或更具优势。确切而言，使用“示例性的”或者“例如”等词旨在以具体方式呈现相关概念。In the embodiments of the present invention, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used as examples, illustrations or illustrations.

本发明实施例提供的终端可以为具有操作系统。例如，该终端可以为个人数字助理(personal digital assistant，PDA)、平板电脑、手机、上网本等。上述操作系统可以为安卓(Android)操作系统，可以为iOS操作系统，还可以为其他可能的操作系统，本发明实施例不作具体限定。The terminal provided in the embodiment of the present invention may have an operating system. For example, the terminal may be a personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant, PDA), a tablet computer, a mobile phone, a netbook, and the like. The foregoing operating system may be an Android (Android) operating system, may be an iOS operating system, and may also be other possible operating systems, which are not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

下面以安卓操作系统为例，介绍本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法所应用的软件环境。The following uses the Android operating system as an example to introduce the software environment to which the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is applied.

如图1所示，为本发明实施例提供的一种可能的安卓操作系统的架构示意图。在图1中，安卓操作系统的架构包括4层，分别为：应用程序层、应用程序框架层、系统运行库层和内核层(具体可以为Linux内核层)。As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a schematic structural diagram of a possible Android operating system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1 , the architecture of the Android operating system includes four layers, namely: an application layer, an application framework layer, a system runtime layer and a kernel layer (specifically, the Linux kernel layer).

其中，应用程序层包括安卓操作系统中的各个应用程序(包括系统应用程序和第三方应用程序)。例如，本发明实施例提供的终端中安装的系统应用可以包括图库应用(简称“图库”)、短信应用(简称“短信”)、设置应用(简称“设置”)、文件管理应用(简称“文件管理”)、相机应用(简称“相机”)和联系人应用(简称“联系人”)等。本发明实施例提供的终端中安装的第三方应用程序可以包括第三方文件管理应用等。Wherein, the application program layer includes various application programs (including system application programs and third-party application programs) in the Android operating system. For example, the system applications installed in the terminal provided by the embodiment of the present invention may include a gallery application (referred to as "Gallery"), a text message application (referred to as "SMS"), a setting application (referred to as "Settings"), a file management application (referred to as "file Management"), camera application (referred to as "Camera") and contacts application (referred to as "Contacts"), etc. The third-party application program installed in the terminal provided by the embodiment of the present invention may include a third-party file management application and the like.

上述应用程序框架层是应用程序的框架，开发人员可以在遵守应用程序的框架的开发原则的情况下，基于应用程序框架层开发一些应用程序。The above-mentioned application framework layer is an application framework, and developers can develop some applications based on the application framework layer while complying with the development principles of the application framework.

系统运行库层包括库(也称为系统库)和安卓操作系统运行环境。库主要为安卓操作系统提供其所需的各类资源。安卓操作系统运行环境用于为安卓操作系统提供软件环境。The system runtime layer includes libraries (also called system libraries) and the Android operating system runtime environment. The library mainly provides various resources required by the Android operating system. The Android operating system operating environment is used to provide a software environment for the Android operating system.

内核层是安卓操作系统的操作系统层，属于安卓操作系统软件层次的最底层。内核层基于Linux内核为安卓操作系统提供核心系统服务和与硬件相关的驱动程序。The kernel layer is the operating system layer of the Android operating system and belongs to the bottom layer of the Android operating system software layer. The kernel layer provides core system services and hardware-related drivers for the Android operating system based on the Linux kernel.

以安卓操作系统为例，本发明实施例中，开发人员可以基于上述如图1所示的安卓操作系统的系统架构，开发实现本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法的软件程序，从而使得该保护隐私的方法可以基于如图1所示的安卓操作系统运行。即处理器或者终端可以通过在安卓的操作系统中运行该软件程序实现本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法。Taking the Android operating system as an example, in the embodiment of the present invention, developers can develop a software program that implements the privacy protection method provided in the embodiment of the present invention based on the system architecture of the Android operating system shown in Figure 1 above, so that the The method for protecting privacy can run based on the Android operating system as shown in FIG. 1 . That is, the processor or the terminal can implement the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention by running the software program in the Android operating system.

一般而言，终端具有触控屏，该触控屏可以用于接收用户的输入，并响应于该输入以显示该输入对应的内容。以下实施例中对终端实现保护隐私的方法中的各个步骤的具体描述可以以手机为例。Generally speaking, a terminal has a touch screen, and the touch screen can be used to receive a user's input, and display content corresponding to the input in response to the input. In the following embodiments, a mobile phone may be used as an example for the specific description of each step in the method for implementing privacy protection by the terminal.

本发明提供的一种具体的实施例中，通过图2所示的保护隐私的方法的流程图对本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法进行详细描述。其中，虽然在方法流程图中示出了本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法的逻辑顺序，但是在某些情况下，可以以不同于此处的顺序执行所示出或描述的步骤。例如，图2中示出的保护隐私的方法可以包括S201-S203：In a specific embodiment provided by the present invention, the method for protecting privacy provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail through the flowchart of the method for protecting privacy shown in FIG. 2 . Wherein, although the logical sequence of the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is shown in the method flow chart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be performed in a different order than here. For example, the method for protecting privacy shown in FIG. 2 may include S201-S203:

S201、终端接收用户在预定义界面上的第一输入。S201. The terminal receives a first input from a user on a predefined interface.

需要说明的是，本发明实施例提供终端具有隐私保护的功能，如终端中设置有用于隐藏用户需要隐私保护的文件的隐私区域。用户使用终端的隐私保护功能时，可以控制终端开启隐私区域。It should be noted that, the embodiment of the present invention provides that the terminal has a privacy protection function, for example, a privacy area for hiding files requiring privacy protection for the user is set in the terminal. When using the privacy protection function of the terminal, the user can control the terminal to enable the privacy area.

其中，上述在预定义界面上的第一输入用于指示终端开启隐私区域，即该第一输入和该预定义界面为终端开启隐私区域的触发条件。上述预定义界面为终端的桌面中的一个界面。Wherein, the above-mentioned first input on the predefined interface is used to instruct the terminal to enable the privacy area, that is, the first input and the predefined interface are trigger conditions for the terminal to enable the privacy area. The above-mentioned predefined interface is an interface in the desktop of the terminal.

可以理解的是，上述预定义界面可以用户在使用终端的过程中设置的，或者，上述预定义界面可以为终端出厂设置的。It can be understood that the above-mentioned predefined interface may be set by the user during the process of using the terminal, or the above-mentioned predefined interface may be factory-set by the terminal.

可选的，上述预定义界面包括隐私区域。此时，预定义界面可以包括一个或多个不需要隐私保护的文件或应用程序的图标，如不需要隐私保护的相机应用的图标。当然，该隐私区域中当前可能不包括任何图标，用户可以向该隐私区域中添加需要隐私保护的文件，使得该隐私区域中包括该隐私文件对应的图标。Optionally, the above-mentioned predefined interface includes a privacy area. At this time, the predefined interface may include one or more icons of files or application programs that do not require privacy protection, such as icons of camera applications that do not require privacy protection. Certainly, the privacy area may not include any icon currently, and the user may add a file requiring privacy protection to the privacy area, so that the privacy area includes an icon corresponding to the privacy file.

可选的，上述预定义界面不包括隐私区域，该隐私区域可以位于终端的桌面中除当前各个界面(如预定义界面)之外的界面(记为隐藏界面)。此时，在终端未开启隐私区域时，该终端不显示该隐藏界面。Optionally, the above-mentioned predefined interface does not include a privacy area, and the privacy area may be located on an interface (referred to as a hidden interface) other than the current interfaces (such as the predefined interface) on the desktop of the terminal. At this time, when the terminal does not enable the privacy area, the terminal does not display the hidden interface.

S202、响应于第一输入，终端采集用户的生物特征。S202. In response to the first input, the terminal collects biometric features of the user.

需要强调的是，终端在接收到用户指示终端开启隐私区域的触发条件之后，便可以自动采集用户的生物特征，而不需要提示用户，即终端的当前界面上不会显示提示信息使得用户不会获知终端进行开启隐私区域的过程。It should be emphasized that after the terminal receives the trigger condition from the user instructing the terminal to open the privacy area, it can automatically collect the user's biometrics without prompting the user, that is, no prompt information will be displayed on the current interface of the terminal so that the user will not It is learned that the terminal performs a process of enabling the privacy zone.

示例性的，上述生物特征可以为用户的人脸特征或者用户的人眼虹膜特征等，一个生物特征能够唯一标识一个用户。Exemplarily, the biometric feature may be the user's face feature or the user's iris feature, etc., and one biometric feature can uniquely identify a user.

例如，终端可以具有摄像头等部件，用于采集用户的人脸特征。其中，终端可以不显示其开启摄像头采集用户的人脸特征的过程，即终端不显示摄像头的取景框以及该摄像头采集到的人脸特征等。并且，终端不需要显示如“请将脸部区域置于取景框内”等提示信息，而是由终端的摄像头自动检测并采集用户的人脸特征。当然，用户不需要输入特定的指纹或者特定的密码以控制终端开启隐私区域。For example, the terminal may have components such as a camera for collecting facial features of the user. Wherein, the terminal may not display the process of turning on the camera to collect the user's facial features, that is, the terminal does not display the viewfinder frame of the camera and the facial features collected by the camera. Moreover, the terminal does not need to display prompt information such as "Please put the face area in the viewfinder", but the terminal's camera automatically detects and collects the user's facial features. Of course, the user does not need to input a specific fingerprint or a specific password to control the terminal to open the privacy area.

S203、若生物特征与预定义生物特征匹配，终端则开启隐私区域。S203. If the biometric feature matches the predefined biometric feature, the terminal enables the privacy zone.

其中，上述预定义生物特征通常为机主用户的生物特征。当然，上述预定义生物特征还可以为预先设置的除机主用户之外的预设用户的生物特征。Wherein, the above-mentioned predefined biological feature is usually the biological feature of the owner user. Certainly, the above-mentioned predefined biometric feature may also be a pre-set biometric feature of a preset user other than the owner user.

示例性的，如图3所示，以手机30为例，手机30中的“设置”中可以提供给用户用于设置预定义的生物特征，如设置预定义的人脸特征的选项。此时，用户对该设置预定义的人脸特征的选项进行输入，使得手机30采集并存储用户的预定义的人脸特征。Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 3 , taking the mobile phone 30 as an example, the "settings" in the mobile phone 30 may provide the user with options for setting predefined biometric features, such as setting predefined facial features. At this time, the user inputs the option of setting the predefined facial features, so that the mobile phone 30 collects and stores the user's predefined facial features.

具体的，在终端当前采集到用户的生物特征与预定义生物特征匹配，即该生物特征为机主用户的生物特征或者上述预设用户的生物特征时，终端可以开启隐私区域，使得该用户可以获取该隐私区域中包括的隐私保护的文件或者向该隐私区域添加需要隐私保护的文件。Specifically, when the terminal currently collects that the user's biometric feature matches the predefined biometric feature, that is, when the biometric feature is the biometric feature of the owner user or the aforementioned preset user's biometric feature, the terminal can enable the privacy area so that the user can Acquire the privacy-protected files included in the privacy area or add privacy-protected files to the privacy area.

可以理解的是，在终端当前采集到用户的生物特征与预定义生物特征不匹配，即该生物特征不为机主用户的生物特征或者上述预设用户的生物特征时，终端不会开启隐私区域，即该用户不能获取该隐私区域中包括的隐私保护的文件。此时，终端不会显示任何提示信息，即用户不会获知到终端开启隐私区域失败。It can be understood that when the biometric feature of the user currently collected by the terminal does not match the predefined biometric feature, that is, the biometric feature is not the biological feature of the owner user or the biometric feature of the preset user, the terminal will not open the privacy zone. , that is, the user cannot obtain the privacy-protected files included in the privacy area. At this time, the terminal will not display any prompt information, that is, the user will not be informed that the terminal fails to enable the privacy area.

需要说明的是，本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法及终端，终端接收到用户在预定义界面上的第一输入，即终端满足开启隐私区域的触发条件时，可以自动采集用户的生物特征以开启隐私区域，而不需要用户主动输入其生物特征或者特定密码。如此，可以提高终端开启隐私区域的灵活性，使得用户控制终端开启隐私区域的输入较为简单。It should be noted that, in the privacy protection method and terminal provided by the embodiments of the present invention, the terminal can automatically collect the user's biological characteristics when it receives the user's first input on the predefined interface, that is, when the terminal meets the trigger condition for enabling the privacy area To open the privacy area, without requiring the user to actively enter their biometrics or a specific password. In this way, the flexibility of the terminal to open the privacy area can be improved, so that the input for the user to control the terminal to open the privacy area is relatively simple.

并且，由于终端开启隐私区域的过程不会向用户显示任何提示信息，因此用户不会获知终端开启隐私区域的过程，即终端开启隐私区域的过程比较隐蔽。如此，提高了终端对隐私区域中包括的图标的隐私保护效果，即提高了对用户需要隐私保护的文件的隐私保护效果。Moreover, since the terminal does not display any prompt information to the user during the process of enabling the privacy zone, the user does not know the process of enabling the privacy zone on the terminal, that is, the process of enabling the privacy zone on the terminal is relatively hidden. In this way, the privacy protection effect of the terminal on the icons included in the privacy area is improved, that is, the privacy protection effect of the user's files requiring privacy protection is improved.

可选的，上述第一输入为用户在预定义界面上的触屏输入，或者第一输入为用户在预定义界面上的指纹输入，或者第一输入为用户在预定义界面上的重力输入，或者第一输入为用户在预定义界面上的按键输入。Optionally, the above-mentioned first input is a user's touch screen input on the predefined interface, or the first input is the user's fingerprint input on the predefined interface, or the first input is the user's gravity input on the predefined interface, Or the first input is the key input by the user on the predefined interface.

示例性的，上述触屏输入为用户对手机的触控屏的按压输入、长按输入、滑动输入、点击输入、悬浮输入(用户在触控屏附近的输入)等。指纹输入为用户对手机的指纹识别器的滑动指纹、长按指纹、单击指纹和双击指纹等。重力输入为用户对手机特定方向的晃动、特定次数的晃动等输入。按键输入对应于用户对手机的电源键、音量键、Home键等按键的单击输入、双击输入、长按输入、组合按键输入等输入。Exemplarily, the above-mentioned touch screen input is the user's press input, long press input, slide input, click input, hover input (input by the user near the touch screen) and the like on the touch screen of the mobile phone. The fingerprint input is the user's sliding fingerprint on the fingerprint reader of the mobile phone, long-pressing the fingerprint, single-clicking the fingerprint, and double-clicking the fingerprint. Gravity input is an input such as the user shakes the mobile phone in a specific direction or a specific number of times. The button input corresponds to the user's input such as single-click input, double-click input, long-press input, and combined button input on the power button, volume button, and Home button of the mobile phone.

其中，本发明实施例提供的终端接收用户在预定界面的第一输入可以为多种输入中的一种，本发明实施例对此不作限定。Wherein, the terminal provided by the embodiment of the present invention receives the user's first input on the predetermined interface, which may be one of various inputs, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

可选的，预定义界面为终端的桌面中的第一个界面(即左起的第一个界面)，或者，预定义界面为终端的桌面中的最后一个界面。Optionally, the predefined interface is the first interface on the desktop of the terminal (that is, the first interface from the left), or, the predefined interface is the last interface on the desktop of the terminal.

示例性的，预定义界面为终端的桌面中的第一个界面时，上述第一输入可以为用户在该第一个界面上的输入，如用户对该第一个界面的向右滑动的输入。类似的，预定义界面为终端的桌面中的最后一个界面时，上述第一输入可以为用户在该最后一个界面上的输入，如用户对该最后一个界面的向左滑动的输入。Exemplarily, when the predefined interface is the first interface on the desktop of the terminal, the above-mentioned first input may be the user's input on the first interface, such as the user's input of sliding right on the first interface . Similarly, when the predefined interface is the last interface on the desktop of the terminal, the above-mentioned first input may be an input by the user on the last interface, such as an input by the user sliding to the left on the last interface.

当然，上述预定义界面还可以为终端的桌面中除第一个界面和最后一个界面中的其他界面。例如，用户在预定义界面上的第一输入可以为用户在预定义界面上的长按输入，如在该预定义界面上的一个预先设定的区域的长按输入。Certainly, the above-mentioned predefined interface may also be other interfaces in the desktop of the terminal except the first interface and the last interface. For example, the user's first input on the predefined interface may be a user's long-press input on the predefined interface, such as a long-press input on a preset area on the predefined interface.

在一种可能的实现方式中，终端在开启隐私区域之前，还可以接收用户选择需要保护的隐私文件的输入。示例性的，如图2a所示，本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法，在上述S201之前还可以包括S204-S206：In a possible implementation manner, before enabling the privacy area, the terminal may also receive an input from the user to select a privacy file to be protected. Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 2a, the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention may further include S204-S206 before the above S201:

S204、终端接收用户的第二输入，第二输入为用户选择隐私文件的输入。S204. The terminal receives a second input from the user, where the second input is an input for the user to select a privacy file.

可以理解的是，本发明实施例提供隐私文件可以为一个应用程序中的全部文件或者部分文件。上述用户的第二输入选择的隐私文件的数量可以为一个或多个。It can be understood that the private files provided in the embodiment of the present invention may be all or part of files in an application program. The number of privacy files selected by the user's second input may be one or more.

示例性的，假设用户需要隐私保护的文件为“图库”中的一张照片，本发明实施例提供的终端可以支持选择该照片为隐私文件。Exemplarily, assuming that the file that the user needs to protect privacy is a photo in the "Gallery", the terminal provided by the embodiment of the present invention can support selecting the photo as a private file.

如图3所示为一种终端显示的界面的实例示意图。其中，图3中的3a示出手机30的触控屏显示的界面301，该界面301中包括“图库”的图标3011。此时，在手机30的触控屏接收到用户对“图库”的图标3011的选择输入之后，响应于该输入，手机30在触控屏上显示如图3中的3b所示的界面302。其中，图3中的3b所示的界面302中显示有“图库”中的照片，如照片3021和图片3022。此时，该照片3021和图片3022为公开文件，即可以向所有用户展示的文件。FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of an example of an interface displayed by a terminal. Wherein, 3a in FIG. 3 shows an interface 301 displayed on the touch screen of the mobile phone 30, and the interface 301 includes an icon 3011 of “Gallery”. At this time, after the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 receives the user's selection input of the icon 3011 of "Gallery", in response to the input, the mobile phone 30 displays an interface 302 shown as 3b in FIG. 3 on the touch screen. Wherein, the interface 302 shown in 3b in FIG. 3 displays photos in the “Gallery”, such as photo 3021 and picture 3022 . At this time, the photo 3021 and picture 3022 are public files, that is, files that can be displayed to all users.

需要说明的是，图3中的3a示出的界面301中包括的“图库”的图标3011为上述图片3021的入口信息。一般而言，用户是在开启该“图库”的图标3011之后获得图片3021的。It should be noted that the icon 3011 of “Gallery” included in the interface 301 shown by 3a in FIG. 3 is the entry information of the picture 3021 mentioned above. Generally speaking, the user obtains the picture 3021 after opening the icon 3011 of the “Gallery”.

进一步的，在手机30的触控屏接收到用户在图3中的3b所示的界面302中对照片3021的选择输入后，响应于该输入，手机30在触控屏上显示如图3中3c所示的界面303。其中，图3中3c所示的界面303中显示有“菜单”选项3031。Further, after the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 receives the user's selection input of the photo 3021 in the interface 302 shown in 3b in FIG. 3 , in response to the input, the mobile phone 30 displays on the touch screen Interface 303 shown in 3c. Wherein, a “menu” option 3031 is displayed in the interface 303 shown in 3c in FIG. 3 .

进一步的，手机30的触控屏接收到用户在图3中3c所示的界面303中“菜单”选项3031的选择输入之后，响应于该输入，手机30在触控屏上显示如图3中3d所示的界面304。其中，图3中3d所示的界面304中显示的“上拉菜单”3041中包括“设为隐私”选项3042。Further, after the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 receives the user's selection input of the "menu" option 3031 in the interface 303 shown in 3c in FIG. Interface 304 shown in 3d. Wherein, the "pull-up menu" 3041 displayed on the interface 304 shown in 3d of FIG. 3 includes the option 3042 of "Set as Privacy".

进一步的，手机30的触控屏接收到用户对图3中3d所示的界面304中显示的“设为隐私”选项3042的选择输入之后，手机30响应于该输入，确定上述图片3021为隐私文件。需要说明的是，本发明中提供的第二输入可为上述用户对“设为隐私”选项3042的选择输入，隐私文件为上述图片3021。Further, after the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 receives the user's selection input of the "set as private" option 3042 displayed in the interface 304 shown in 3d in FIG. document. It should be noted that the second input provided in the present invention may be the selection input of the above-mentioned user on the option 3042 of “Set as private”, and the private file is the above-mentioned picture 3021 .

类似的，参照上述手机30确定图片3021为隐私文件的输入，用户还可以对一张或多张需要隐私保护的其他照片进行相同的输入，使得手机30确定该其他照片为隐私文件。Similarly, referring to the above-mentioned input that the mobile phone 30 determines that the picture 3021 is a private file, the user can also perform the same input on one or more other photos that require privacy protection, so that the mobile phone 30 determines that the other photos are private files.

需要说明的是，本发明提供的第二输入的示例不显示上述实施例中的实施例，还可以为其他输入。例如，用户同时选择了“图库”中的多张照片，手机30的触控屏上显示上述一个“设为隐私”选项；用户对该“设为隐私”选项进行选择输入之后，响应于该输入手机30可以同时确定该多张照片为隐私文件。具体的，本发明实施例对第二输入的详细描述可以参照上述实施例对第一输入的相关描述，这里不再赘述。It should be noted that, the example of the second input provided by the present invention does not show the embodiment in the foregoing embodiments, and may also be other inputs. For example, the user selects multiple photos in the "Gallery" at the same time, and the above-mentioned "set as privacy" option is displayed on the touch screen of the mobile phone 30; after the user selects and inputs the "set as privacy" option, in response to the input The mobile phone 30 can simultaneously determine that these multiple photos are privacy files. Specifically, for the detailed description of the second input in this embodiment of the present invention, reference may be made to the relevant description of the first input in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not repeated here.

当然，本发明实施例中提供的隐私文件也不限于上述实施例中的示例，还可以为其他文件，例如，“联系人”中的包括联系人信息的文件、“短信”中的包括短信息的文件等。其中，参照上述手机30确定“图库”中的照片3021为隐私文件的相关描述，本发明实施例这里对手机30确定该其他文件为隐私文件的过程不再详细描述。Of course, the privacy files provided in the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the examples in the above embodiments, and can also be other files, for example, files containing contact information in "Contacts", files containing short messages in "SMS" files etc. Wherein, referring to the related description that the mobile phone 30 determines that the photo 3021 in the “Gallery” is a private file, the embodiment of the present invention does not describe in detail the process of the mobile phone 30 determining that other files are private files.

S205、响应于第二输入，终端按照预定义规则，生成隐私文件对应的图标。S205. In response to the second input, the terminal generates an icon corresponding to the privacy file according to a predefined rule.

其中，上述第一隐私文件对应的第一图标为终端提供的第一隐私文件的入口，使得用户可以根据需要对该第一图标进行输入，以获取第一隐私文件。Wherein, the first icon corresponding to the above-mentioned first privacy file is an entry of the first privacy file provided by the terminal, so that the user can input the first icon as required to obtain the first privacy file.

S206、终端在隐私区域添加隐私文件对应的图标。S206. The terminal adds an icon corresponding to the private file in the private area.

可选的，终端在隐私区域添加隐私文件对应的图标时，终端可以不显示该图标，即不开启隐私区域；或者，终端可以显示该图标，即开启隐私区域。Optionally, when the terminal adds an icon corresponding to the privacy file in the privacy area, the terminal may not display the icon, that is, the privacy area is not enabled; or, the terminal may display the icon, that is, the privacy area is enabled.

以手机30为例，手机30的触控屏显示的界面可以包括一个隐私区域，用于隐藏隐私文件对应的图标。其中，由于一个隐私文件对应的图标为该隐私文件的入口，因此，手机30隐藏图标便可以实现对隐私文件的隐私保护。具体的，在隐私区域没有开启的情况下，手机30的触控屏不显示该图标，使得用户无法获取该图标，即用户无法获得上述隐私文件。Taking the mobile phone 30 as an example, the interface displayed on the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 may include a privacy area for hiding icons corresponding to private files. Wherein, since the icon corresponding to a private file is the entry of the private file, the mobile phone 30 can hide the icon to realize the privacy protection of the private file. Specifically, when the privacy area is not enabled, the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 does not display the icon, so that the user cannot obtain the icon, that is, the user cannot obtain the above-mentioned private file.

其中，在终端将一个隐私文件对应的图标添加至隐私区域之后，终端显示的该隐私文件所属的应用程序中不需要隐私保护的文件不包括该该隐私文件。例如，参照上述图3中示出的手机30的触控屏显示的各个界面，终端在隐私区域隐藏上述图片3021对应的图标之后，如图3中的3b所示的界面302将不再显示图片3021。Wherein, after the terminal adds an icon corresponding to a privacy file to the privacy area, the files displayed on the terminal that do not require privacy protection in the application program to which the privacy file belongs do not include the privacy file. For example, referring to the various interfaces displayed on the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 shown in FIG. 3 above, after the terminal hides the icon corresponding to the above-mentioned picture 3021 in the privacy area, the interface 302 shown in 3b in FIG. 3 will no longer display the picture. 3021.

可以理解的是，终端在隐私区域添加上述隐私文件对应的图标之后，终端开启隐私区域即为显示该图标。具体的，上述实施例中保护隐私的方法提供的S203可以替换为S203＇：It can be understood that after the terminal adds the icon corresponding to the aforementioned privacy file in the privacy area, the terminal opens the privacy area to display the icon. Specifically, S203 provided by the privacy protection method in the above embodiment can be replaced with S203':

S203＇、终端在隐私区域显示隐私文件对应图标。S203'. The terminal displays an icon corresponding to the private file in the private area.

需要说明的是，本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法中，终端在开启隐私区域显示隐私文件对应的图标时，可以显示该隐私区域的边框，也可以不显示该隐私区域的边框。It should be noted that, in the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, when the terminal opens the privacy area to display the icon corresponding to the privacy file, it may display the frame of the privacy area or not display the frame of the privacy area.

本发明实施例提供的隐私文件对应的图标在隐私区域显示，具体指的是该图标在隐私区域所在的界面上显示。The icon corresponding to the privacy file provided by the embodiment of the present invention is displayed in the privacy area, which specifically refers to the icon being displayed on the interface where the privacy area is located.

可选的，当隐私文件对应的图标为多个且该多个图标不能在上述预定义界面或者上述隐藏界面上全部显示时，则多出的图标可以在该预定义界面或者该隐藏界面的下一个界面上显示。Optionally, when there are multiple icons corresponding to the privacy file and the multiple icons cannot all be displayed on the above-mentioned predefined interface or the above-mentioned hidden interface, then the extra icons can be displayed under the predefined interface or the hidden interface. displayed on an interface.

其中，终端开启隐私区域即为终端显示该隐私区域中包括的文件或应用程序的图标。Wherein, enabling the privacy area by the terminal means that the terminal displays icons of files or applications included in the privacy area.

示例性的，第一隐私文件为上述图3中的图3中3a示出的图片3021和图片3022。此时，隐私文件对应的图标可以为手机30针对图片3021和图片3022生成的图标，即该图标为图片3021和图片3022的入口信息。Exemplarily, the first privacy file is the picture 3021 and the picture 3022 shown in 3a in FIG. 3 in the above-mentioned FIG. 3 . At this time, the icon corresponding to the privacy file may be the icon generated by the mobile phone 30 for the picture 3021 and the picture 3022 , that is, the icon is the entry information of the picture 3021 and the picture 3022 .

需要说明的是，本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法，在用户需要对应用程序中的部分文件进行隐私保护的场景中，用户选择需要隐私保护的文件之后，终端可以生成该文件对应的图标，使得该图标作为该隐私文件的入口信息。从而，终端通过隐私区域隐藏该文件对应的图标，便可以实现隐藏该文件，即终端不公开显示该文件，实现对该文件的隐私保护。如此，在用户需要对应用程序中的部分文件进行隐私保护的场景中，终端可以仅隐藏该部分文件，而不会隐藏该应用程序中其它不需要隐私保护的文件，在提高终端进行隐私保护的灵活性的同时，还可以提高用户使用终端的隐私保护功能时的用户体验。It should be noted that, in the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, in the scenario where the user needs to protect the privacy of some files in the application program, after the user selects a file that needs privacy protection, the terminal can generate an icon corresponding to the file , so that the icon is used as the entry information of the privacy file. Therefore, the terminal hides the icon corresponding to the file through the privacy area, so that the file can be hidden, that is, the terminal does not publicly display the file, and the privacy protection of the file is realized. In this way, in the scenario where the user needs to protect the privacy of some files in the application, the terminal can only hide this part of the files without hiding other files in the application that do not need privacy protection, which improves the privacy protection of the terminal. While providing flexibility, it can also improve the user experience when the user uses the privacy protection function of the terminal.

在一种可能的实现方式中，终端在将隐私文件对应的图标隐藏在隐私区域之后，还可以向用户提示该图标(该隐私文件)已经被隐私保护。示例性的，本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法，上述S203之后，还可以包括S203a:In a possible implementation manner, after hiding the icon corresponding to the privacy file in the privacy area, the terminal may also prompt the user that the icon (the privacy file) has been protected for privacy. Exemplarily, the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention may further include S203a after the above S203:

S203a、终端显示第一提示信息。S203a. The terminal displays the first prompt information.

其中，上述第一提示信息可以用于向用户提示用户选择的隐私文件已被隐私保护。Wherein, the above-mentioned first prompt information may be used to prompt the user that the privacy file selected by the user has been protected for privacy.

例如，在上述用户对图3中的3d所示的界面304中显示的“设为隐私”选项3042的选择输入之后，手机30的触控屏上还可以弹出“设为隐私成功”的提示信息。For example, after the above-mentioned user selects and inputs the "set to privacy" option 3042 displayed in the interface 304 shown in 3d in Fig. 3, the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 may also pop up a prompt message of "successfully set to privacy" .

如此，用户控制终端将隐私文件对应的图标隐藏在隐私区域之后，向用户提示设置隐私成功的提示信息，有利于提高用户使用终端的隐私保护功能时的用户体验。In this way, the user controls the terminal to hide the icon corresponding to the privacy file behind the privacy area, and prompts the user with a message that the privacy setting is successful, which is beneficial to improving the user experience when the user uses the privacy protection function of the terminal.

在一种可能的实现方式中，终端生成与隐私文件对应的图标的过程中所依据的预定义规则可以包括以下规则1-规则3中的一种或多种。In a possible implementation manner, the predefined rules according to which the terminal generates the icon corresponding to the privacy file may include one or more of the following rules 1-3.

规则1、为属于同一个应用程序的隐私文件生成一个图标。Rule 1. Generate an icon for private files belonging to the same application.

其中，通常一个应用程序中可以包括多个文件，在用户获取该应用程序中的不同文件时，均需要打开该应用程序的图标。也就是说，同一个应用程序中的文件对应的入口均为该应用程序的图标。Wherein, usually an application program may include multiple files, and when the user obtains different files in the application program, the icon of the application program needs to be opened. That is to say, the entries corresponding to the files in the same application program are all icons of the application program.

从而，终端可以根据隐私文件所属的应用程序，生成该隐私文件对应的图标。在多个隐私文件均属于同一个应用程序时，终端可以对该对个隐私文件生成一个图标，使得该多个隐私文件的入口为一个，以方便用户获取该多个隐私文件。Therefore, the terminal can generate an icon corresponding to the private file according to the application program to which the private file belongs. When multiple private files belong to the same application program, the terminal can generate an icon for the pair of private files, so that there is one entry for the multiple private files, so as to facilitate the user to obtain the multiple private files.

示例性的，参照上述实施例中图3所示的手机30的触控屏显示的各个界面，在用户选择如图3中的3b所示界面302中的图片3021和图片3022为隐私文件之后，响应于该输入，手机30可以确定图片3021和图片3022均属于“图库”，从而可以针对图片3021和图片3022生成一个用于隐藏的图标(即入口信息)。Exemplarily, referring to the various interfaces displayed on the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 shown in FIG. In response to the input, the mobile phone 30 can determine that both the picture 3021 and the picture 3022 belong to the "gallery", so that a hidden icon (ie, entry information) can be generated for the picture 3021 and the picture 3022 .

需要说明的是，按照上述规则1，终端生成隐私文件对应的图标可以与该隐私文件原本所属的应用程序的图标相似。例如，该隐私文件对应的图标可以为该应用程序的图标上添加了一个符号。另外，该隐私文件对应的图标的名称也可以与该应用程序的类型。例如，该应用程序的图标的名称为“图库”，该隐私文件对应的图标的名称可以为“隐私图库”。It should be noted that, according to the above rule 1, the icon corresponding to the private file generated by the terminal may be similar to the icon of the application program to which the private file originally belongs. For example, the icon corresponding to the privacy file may be a symbol added to the icon of the application program. In addition, the name of the icon corresponding to the privacy file may also be the same as the type of the application program. For example, the name of the icon of the application program is "Gallery", and the name of the icon corresponding to the privacy file may be "Privacy Gallery".

示例性的，如图4为本发明实施例提供的一种终端显示的界面的实例示意图。其中，结合上述实施例，以手机30为例，图4中的4a中示出的界面401为手机30的最后一个主界面，即预定义界面为该最后一个界面。在隐私文件对应的图标为手机30针对图片3021和图片3022生成的图标的情况下，手机30的触控屏接收到用户对该界面401的执行输入4011(向左滑动的输入)后，手机30可以自主采集用户的生物特征。手机30在确定采集到的生物特征与预定义生物特征匹配的情况下，可以在触控屏上显示如图4中4b所示的界面402，该界面402中包括“隐私图库”的图标4021。其中，“隐私图库”的图标4021可以为图片3021和图片3022的入口信息。Exemplarily, FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of an example of an interface displayed by a terminal provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Wherein, in combination with the above embodiments, taking the mobile phone 30 as an example, the interface 401 shown in 4a in FIG. 4 is the last main interface of the mobile phone 30, that is, the predefined interface is the last interface. When the icon corresponding to the privacy file is the icon generated by the mobile phone 30 for the picture 3021 and the picture 3022, after the touch screen of the mobile phone 30 receives the user's execution input 4011 (input to slide to the left) of the interface 401, the mobile phone 30 The user's biometrics can be collected autonomously. When the mobile phone 30 determines that the collected biometric features match the predefined biometric features, it can display an interface 402 shown in 4b in FIG. 4 on the touch screen, and the interface 402 includes an icon 4021 of "Privacy Gallery". Wherein, the icon 4021 of the "Privacy Gallery" may be the entry information of the pictures 3021 and 3022.

规则2、为属于同一种文件类型的隐私文件生成一个图标。Rule 2. Generate an icon for private files belonging to the same file type.

其中，一个文件的文件类型可以包括压缩文件类型和非压缩文件类型，或者，一个文件的文件类型可以包括图片类型、视频类型和文本类型等。Wherein, the file type of a file may include a compressed file type and a non-compressed file type, or, the file type of a file may include a picture type, a video type, a text type, and the like.

当然，本发明实施例这提供的文件类型还可以为其他文件类型的划分，并不限于上述对文件类型的示例描述。例如，一个应用程序中的文件的文件类型可以包括前台类型和后台类型。通常用户通过主界面上显示的应用程序的图标进入该应用程序时，用户获取的该应用程序的文件为前台的文件；而在用户通过文件管理应用获取到该应用程序的文件为后台的文件。Of course, the file types provided in this embodiment of the present invention may also be divided into other file types, and are not limited to the above example descriptions of file types. For example, the file type of a file in an application program may include a foreground type and a background type. Usually, when the user enters the application program through the icon of the application program displayed on the main interface, the file of the application program obtained by the user is the foreground file; and the file of the application program acquired by the user through the file management application is the background file.

其中，不同应用程序中的文件的文件类型可以是相同的。例如，终端中安装了聊天应用1(“聊天1”)和邮箱应用(“邮箱”)，“聊天1”中的一个隐私文件(记为隐私文件1)的文件类型是文本类型、“邮箱”中的一个隐私文件(记为隐私文件2)的文件类型也是文本类型。此时，终端可以针对该隐私文件1和隐私文件2生成一个图标，使得终端在隐私区域隐藏该图标。Wherein, the file types of files in different application programs may be the same. For example, a chat application 1 (“chat 1”) and a mailbox application (“mailbox”) are installed in the terminal, and the file type of a private file (denoted as privacy file 1) in “chat 1” is a text type, “mailbox” The file type of a privacy file (denoted as privacy file 2) in is also a text type. At this time, the terminal may generate an icon for the privacy file 1 and the privacy file 2, so that the terminal hides the icon in the privacy area.

需要说明的是，按照上述规则2，终端为属于同一种文件类型的隐私文件生成的图标可以为一个文件夹的样式。上述图标的名称可以为终端根据该文件类型生成的，如该文件类型为文本类型，该文件夹的名称为“隐私文本”。或者，上述图标的名称还可以由用户自己设置。It should be noted that, according to the above rule 2, the icons generated by the terminal for private files belonging to the same file type may be in the style of a folder. The name of the above icon may be generated by the terminal according to the file type, if the file type is a text type, the name of the folder is "private text". Alternatively, the names of the above icons may also be set by the user himself.

规则3、为属于同一个文件路径的隐私文件生成一个图标。Rule 3. Generate an icon for private files belonging to the same file path.

其中，终端在安装一个应用程序时，会在终端的内存单元(或存储器)中生成该应用程序对应的文件路径，使得终端在该文件路径下保存该应用程序后台的文件，如该应用程序的配置文件。Wherein, when the terminal installs an application program, it will generate a file path corresponding to the application program in the memory unit (or memory) of the terminal, so that the terminal saves the background file of the application program under the file path, such as the application program's configuration file.

不同应用程序中的文件的文件类型也可以是相同的。例如，终端中安装了聊天应用1(“聊天1”)和聊天应用2(“聊天2”)。“聊天1”中的一个隐私文件(记为隐私文件3)的文件路径是文件路径1、“聊天2”中的一个隐私文件(记为隐私文件4)的文件路径也是文件路径1。此时，终端可以针对该隐私文件3和隐私文件4生成一个图标，使得终端在隐私区域隐藏该图标。The file types of files in different applications can also be the same. For example, chat application 1 ("chat 1") and chat application 2 ("chat 2") are installed in the terminal. The file path of a private file (marked as private file 3) in "chat 1" is file path 1, and the file path of a private file (marked as private file 4) in "chat 2" is also file path 1. At this time, the terminal may generate an icon for the privacy file 3 and the privacy file 4, so that the terminal hides the icon in the privacy area.

需要说明的是，按照上述规则3，终端为属于同一个文件路径的隐私文件生成的图标也可以为一个文件夹的样式。上述图标的名称可以为终端根据该文件路径生成的，如图标的名称可以为该文件路径。或者，上述图标的名称还可以由用户自己设置。It should be noted that, according to the above rule 3, the icons generated by the terminal for private files belonging to the same file path may also be in the style of a folder. The name of the above icon may be generated by the terminal according to the file path, for example, the name of the icon may be the file path. Alternatively, the names of the above icons may also be set by the user himself.

其中，终端也可以结合上述规则1-规则3终端中的多个规则，如结合规则1和规则2对隐私文件生成图标，本发明实施例对此不再详细描述，可以参照上述针对规则1-规则3中的各个规则的相关描述。Among them, the terminal can also combine multiple rules in the above-mentioned rule 1-rule 3 terminal, such as combining rule 1 and rule 2 to generate icons for private files, which will not be described in detail in this embodiment of the present invention. Description of each rule in rule 3.

在一种可能的实现方式中，根据上述对规则1-规则3的描述，可知本发明提供的隐私文件的数量可以为多个，该多个隐私文件可以为一个应用程序中的文件，或者，该多个隐私文件可以为多个应用程序中的文件。In a possible implementation, according to the above description of rules 1-3, it can be seen that the number of privacy files provided by the present invention can be multiple, and the multiple privacy files can be files in an application program, or, The multiple privacy files may be files in multiple application programs.

需要说明的是，本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法，终端可以按照多种预定义的规则生成隐私文件对应的图标，使得隐私保护的过程更为灵活。并且，在用户需要保护多个文件的情况下，终端还可以根据用户的需要，对属于不同应用程序中的需要保护的文件生成一个图标，使得用户方便获取该多个文件，提高了用户在使用隐私保护功能时的用户体验。It should be noted that, in the privacy protection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the terminal can generate icons corresponding to private files according to various predefined rules, so that the privacy protection process is more flexible. Moreover, when the user needs to protect multiple files, the terminal can also generate an icon for the files that need to be protected in different application programs according to the user's needs, so that the user can easily obtain the multiple files, which improves the user's ability to use. User experience when using the privacy protection function.

在一种可能的实现方式中，终端在对隐私文件进行隐私保护之前，还可以技术由用户触发终端开启隐私保护模式的输入。示例性的，本发明提供的隐私保护的方法，在上述S203之前，具体在S201之前，还可以包括S301和S302：In a possible implementation manner, before the terminal performs privacy protection on the private file, the user may trigger an input of the terminal to enable the privacy protection mode through technology. Exemplarily, the privacy protection method provided by the present invention may further include S301 and S302 before the above S203, specifically before S201:

S301、终端接收用户开启隐私模式的输入。S301. The terminal receives an input from a user to enable a privacy mode.

S302、响应于用户开启隐私模式的输入，终端开启隐私保护模式。S302. In response to the user's input of enabling the privacy mode, the terminal activates the privacy protection mode.

示例性的，以手机30为例，手机30的“设置”中可以提供一个用户开启手机30的隐私保护模式的选项(如按钮或图标)。此时，用户可以通过该选项控制手机30开启隐私保护模式。Exemplarily, taking the mobile phone 30 as an example, an option (such as a button or icon) for the user to enable the privacy protection mode of the mobile phone 30 may be provided in the “settings” of the mobile phone 30 . At this time, the user can control the mobile phone 30 to turn on the privacy protection mode through this option.

其中，本发明提供的保护隐私的方法中，终端可以提供一个用于用户开启终端隐私保护模式的选项(即入口信息)，使得用户可以根据需求，自主选择是否需要开启终端的隐私保护模式。这样一来，在用户没有需要隐私保护的文件的场景中，用户可以选择关闭终端的隐私保护模式，使得终端中应用程序中的文件均为公开文件，方便管理终端中的文件的同时，方便用户获取应用程序中的文件。Among them, in the privacy protection method provided by the present invention, the terminal can provide an option (ie, entry information) for the user to enable the privacy protection mode of the terminal, so that the user can independently choose whether to enable the privacy protection mode of the terminal according to requirements. In this way, in the scenario where the user has no files that require privacy protection, the user can choose to turn off the privacy protection mode of the terminal, so that the files in the application programs in the terminal are all public files, which is convenient for managing files in the terminal and convenient for users. Get the files in the application.

在本发明提供的另一种具体的实施例中，终端开启意思你区域使得触控屏显示隐私文件对应的图标之后，用户可以对该图标进行输入以获取该隐私文件。此时，用户可能会认为当前的隐私文件已经不需要隐私保护，此时可以控制终端，使得该隐私文件切换为公开显示的文件。具体的，本发明实施例提供的保护隐私的方法，在上述S203或S203＇之后，还可以包括S401-S404：In another specific embodiment provided by the present invention, after the terminal opens the meaning you area so that the touch screen displays an icon corresponding to the private file, the user can input the icon to obtain the private file.
