Recommendation method implemented in electronic device
An electronic device includes a communication port, a display, a processor, and a memory. The processor detects whether an external device plugs into the communication port, displays a user interface on the display when an external device plugs into the communication port, detects whether the user interface receives a predetermined user operation, recommends relevant data linked to the external device according to predetermined rules when the user interface receives the predetermined user operation, and displays the relevant data linked to the external device on the display.
1. An electronic device comprising:
a communication port;
a display;
a processor; and
a memory configured to store a plurality of instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
detect whether an external device plugs into the communication port;
display, when the external device plugs into the communication port, a user interface on the display;
detect whether the user interface receives a predetermined user operation;
recommend, when the user interface receives the predetermined user operation, relevant data linked to the external device according to predetermined rules, the relevant data linked to the external device being stored in the memory of the electronic device before the last occasion on which/most recent time when the external device was plugged into the communication port; and
display the relevant data linked to the external device on the display.
2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the relevant data linked to the external device is an operation record within a predetermined time duration after the external device plugs into the communication port before the last occasion on which/most recent time, wherein the operation record comprises a record of which applications of the electronic device were activated, a record of how many times each application was activated, a record of how long each application was running, a record of which settings of the electronic device were executed, and a record of how many times each setting was executed every time the external device was plugged into the communication port within the predetermined time duration.
3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
detect a type of the external device when the external device plugs into the communication port; and
store, when the external device unplugs from the communication port, the type of the external device and the relevant data linked to the external device.
4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the user interface displays as a widget on a main page of the display, or the user interface displays on a page different from the main page of the display.
5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the applications recorded of the relevant data are ordered according to a frequency of the applications executed, wherein an M number of applications executed a highest frequency are displayed in the user interface, and wherein M is a positive integer greater than 1.
6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the applications recorded of the relevant data are ordered according to a total length of time of the applications executed, wherein the M number of applications executed a longest total length of time are displayed in the user interface; and wherein M is a positive integer greater than 1.
7. A method of recommendation implemented in an electronic device comprising a communication port and a display, the method comprising:
detecting whether an external device plugs into the communication port;
displaying, when an external device plugs into the communication port, a user interface on the display;
detecting whether the user interface receives a predetermined user operation;
recommending, when the user interface receives the predetermined user operation, relevant data linked to the external device according to predetermined rules, the relevant data linked to the external device being stored in the memory of the electronic device before the last occasion on which/most recent time when the external device was plugged into the communication port; and
displaying the relevant data linked to the external device on the display.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the relevant data linked to the external device is an operation record within a predetermined time duration after the external device plugs into the communication port before the last occasion on which/most recent time; the operation record comprises a record of which applications of the electronic device were activated, how many times each application was activated, how long each application was used, which settings of the electronic device were implemented, and how many times each setting was implemented for every time the external device plugs into the communication port within the predetermined time duration.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
detecting a type of the external device when the external device plugs into the communication port; and
storing, when the external device unplugs from the communication port, the type of the external device and the relevant data linked to the external device.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the user interface displays as a widget on a main page of the display, or the user interface displays on an interface of the display different from the main page.
11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the applications recorded of the relevant data are ordered according to a frequency of the applications executed; icons of an M number of applications having a highest frequency of execution are displayed in the user interface; M is a positive integer greater than 1.
12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the applications recorded of the relevant data are ordered according to a total length of time of the applications executed; icons of an M number of applications having a total longest length of time of execution are displayed in the user interface; wherein M is a positive integer greater than 1.
