when a signature of the application software cannot be decrypted using the public key, determining, by the electronic device, that the application software is third-party application software.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the acquiring, by the electronic device, a first instruction corresponding to the first touch event includes:

converting, by the electronic device, the first touch event into a first event according to a preset rule, and acquiring the first instruction corresponding to the first event.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the converting, by the electronic device, the first touch event into a first event according to a preset rule, and acquiring the first instruction corresponding to the first event includes:

receiving, by the electronic device, a user-defined setting,

converting the first touch event into a user-defined first event, and

acquiring the first instruction corresponding to the user-defined first event.

5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the first event is a second touch event; the second touch event is input information that is triggered by a touch gesture on the second touch panel of the electronic device and is compatible with the interface of the third-party application software; and the converting, by the electronic device, the first touch event into a first event according to a preset rule, and acquiring the first instruction corresponding to the first event includes:

converting, by the electronic device, the first touch event into the second touch event according to the preset rule, and acquiring the first instruction corresponding to the second touch event.

6. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the first event is an event that is triggerable by a physical button of the electronic device; and the converting, by the electronic device, the first touch event into a first event according to a preset rule, and acquiring the first instruction corresponding to the first event includes:

converting, by the electronic device according to the preset rule, an instruction triggered by the first touch event into an instruction that would be triggered by the physical button of the electronic device, to acquire the instruction that would be triggered by the physical button of the electronic device.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

acquiring, by the electronic device, a third touch event using the second touch panel, wherein the third touch event is input information that is triggered by a touch gesture on the second touch panel and is compatible with the interface of the third-party application software; and

running, by the electronic device, the third-party application software according to the first instruction and the third touch event.

8. An electronic device comprising:

a processor,

a memory,

an output device,

a first touch panel, and

a second touch panel,

wherein the processor is configured to:

acquire a first touch event using the first touch panel, wherein the first touch event is input information that is triggered by a touch gesture on the first touch panel and is incompatible with an interface of third-party application software, wherein the interface of the third party application software is compatible with input information triggered by a touch gesture on the second touch panel;

detect that currently displayed application software is the third-party application software;

acquire a first instruction corresponding to the first touch event, wherein the third-party application software is application software that is installed in the electronic device and is developed by a third party and not by a manufacturer of the electronic device; and

run the third-party application software according to the first instruction.

9. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to: decrypt the currently displayed application software using a public key that is preconfigured by the manufacturer of the electronic device and corresponds to a private key of a signature of dedicated application software; and when a signature of the application software cannot be decrypted using the public key, determine that the application software is third-party application software, wherein the dedicated application software is application software developed by the manufacturer of the electronic device.

10. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to: convert the first touch event into a first event according to a preset rule, and acquire the first instruction corresponding to the first event.

11. The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the processor is configured to:

receive a user-defined setting,

convert the first touch event into a user-defined first event, and

acquire the first instruction corresponding to the user-defined first event.

12. The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the first event is a second touch event; the second touch event is input information that is triggered by a touch gesture on the second touch panel of the electronic device and is compatible with the interface of the third-party application software; and the processor is configured to:

convert the first touch event into the second touch event according to the preset rule, and

acquire the first instruction corresponding to the second touch event.

13. The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the processor is configured to:

convert, according to the preset rule, an instruction triggered by the first touch event into an instruction that would be triggered by a physical button of the electronic device, to acquire the instruction that would be triggered by the physical button of the electronic device.

14. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

acquire a third touch event, wherein the third touch event is input information that is triggered by a touch gesture on the second touch panel and is compatible with the interface of the third-party application software; and

run the third-party application software according to the first instruction and the third touch event.

15. An electronic device comprising:
