This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201510958973.0, filed Dec. 18, 2015, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure generally relates to communication technology, and more particularly to method, apparatus and computer-readable medium for cellular data monitoring.
With the development of the information era and the booming of the mobile Internet industry, network applications have entered into every corner of society and the popularity of intelligent terminal devices has brought a lot of convenience to human life. Along with the coming of the 3G and 4G era, the installation and operation of a variety of applications cost more and more cellular data. Currently, intelligent terminal devices are provided with a module for monitoring cellular data usage. For example, the cellular data usage of each application could be monitored by setting up the configurations for the application and selecting appropriate cellular data options. However, monitoring the cellular data usage in this manner is complicated in operation. Also, it is time consuming because the cellular data usages of all applications are recorded and it needs to look up a target application from all applications.
According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a method for cellular data monitoring is provided, including: receiving a cellular data monitoring command to get a cellular data usage for a background application, wherein the background application is an application program running in background; and outputting a correspondence relationship between an application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application.
According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, an apparatus for cellular data monitoring is provided, including: a processor; a memory for storing processor-executable instructions; wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive a cellular data monitoring command to get a cellular data usage for a background application, wherein the background application is an application program running in background; output a correspondence relationship between an application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application.
According to a third aspect of the present disclosure, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein a computer program including instructions for executing the steps of a method for data search according to claim 1 is provided.
It is to be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are merely for the purpose of illustration and explanation, and are not intended to limit the scope of the protection of the disclosure.

For example, the first information may also be referred as the second information without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, similarly the second information may also be referred to as the first information. The word “if” as used herein may be interpreted as “when” or “while” or “respond to determination” depending on the context.
Given the reason that users are generally more concerned about the applications that are being used, applications that are running in the background are targeted as the objects among which to locate a target application, thereby the efficiency may be improved.
At step 101, receiving a cellular data monitoring command to get a cellular data usage for a background application, wherein the background application is an application program running in background.
At step 102, outputting a correspondence relationship between an application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application.
Terminal devices involved in the present disclosure may include smart terminal devices, such as smart phones and tablet computers, etc.
Wherein the cellular data monitoring command is a trigger command that triggers the implementation of steps 101 to 102. The cellular data monitoring command may be a new trigger command in the terminal device. For example, the generation of the cellular data monitoring command may be triggered by the combination of one or more buttons originally undefined. In some embodiments, the cellular data monitoring command may be generated by pressing the volume up button and the home button simultaneously to trigger the implementation of steps 101 to 102, assuming the volume up button and the home button have no extra functions. In some embodiments, the cellular data monitoring command may be triggered by a certain button, for example, an application installed in the terminal device. The cellular data monitoring command may be triggered by triggering the icon of the application, thus triggering the implementation of steps 101 to 102.
Alternatively, the cellular data monitoring command may also be a trigger command already existed in the terminal device. The cellular data monitoring function may be improved by expanding the existing trigger command. For example, the cellular data monitoring command may be a command for starting a task menu. That is to say, the following operations may be performed upon receiving the command for starting a task menu: acquiring a cellular data usage for a background application and outputting, on the task menu, the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application.
Wherein the task menu is a menu showing an application identifier of the background application. The application identifier may include an application icon, an application name and an application number. The generation of the command for starting a task menu in different operating systems may be triggered in different ways. For example, the generation of the command for starting a task menu may be triggered by double clicking the home button in IOS system, and then task menu may pop up. While in Android system, the generation of the command for starting a task menu may be triggered by clicking the menu button, and then the task menu may pop up. The user may click on the application icon shown in the task menu and slide the icon up to release, i.e. shut down the corresponding background application. On the other hand, the user may click on the application icon shown in the task menu to switch the background application from running in the background to running in the foreground. In a Xiaomi cellphone, all background applications may be released by a single click on the “X” button below the application icons. Besides, the icon of the background application may be slid down to keep hold/release hold of the background application. Wherein keeping hold of a background application means the background application is locked so that it will not be released even when the “X” button is clicked, and releasing hold of a background application means the background application is unlocked so that it will be released when the “X” button is clicked.
As can be seen from the above embodiments, upon receiving the command for starting a task menu, the cellular data usage for the background application may be acquired and the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application may be output on the task menu. Therefore, the user may be able to check the cellular data usage of the background application while looking over the background application. Thus convenience may be brought to the user and the efficiency to check the cellular data usage may be improved.
With respect to the step 101, after receiving the cellular data monitoring command, the application that is running in the background (which is also referred to as background application) may be determined, and the cellular data usage for the background application then may be acquired. As an example, the cellular data usage for each background application may be determined based on the amount of cellular data received and transmitted through the cellular data status interface. Wherein the cellular data usage is the amount of cellular data transmitted over the network. In some embodiments, since users generally are not concerned about the cellular data usage under a LAN network circumstance, the cellular data monitored in the present disclosure may be mobile cellular data which corresponds to networks such as 3G networks and 4G networks and the like.
With respect to the step 102, the application identifier may include an application icon, an application name and an application number. The application icon may be employed as the application identifier to identify the background application.
Wherein a correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application is output, so that the user may determine the cellular data usage for the background application based on the correspondence relationship. Concerning the output form, if the generation of the cellular data monitoring command is triggered by a new combination of buttons, a prompt window may pop up and display the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application; and if the cellular data monitoring command is a command for starting a task menu, the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application may be displayed on the interface for the task menu.
Wherein the output form may include an auditory form and a visual form. For example, the icon of a background application may be displayed and the cellular data usage for this background application may be indicated with voice prompt when the icon is double clicked, thus the output of the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application may be realized. In order for the cellular data usage to be displayed in a more intuitive way, the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application may be output in a visual form. Several ways for outputting the correspondence relationship in a visual form are listed in the following.
In some embodiments, the cellular data usage for the background application may be displayed at an associated position with the background application. Wherein the associated position is a position associated with the application identifier, and the user may determine, based on the associated position, that an amount of cellular data is the cellular data usage for the background application. For example, the associated position may be a position below, above the application identifier or on the left of the application identifier, etc.
In alternative embodiments, outputting the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application comprises: selecting, from a plurality of cellular data usages for a plurality of background applications, a maximum cellular data usage; calculating a ratio between each cellular data usage for respective background applications and the maximum cellular data usage to obtain a first ratio corresponding to each of the background applications; and outputting a first correspondence relationship between the application identifier of each background application and the first ratio corresponding to the background application.
In this implementation, since each background application corresponds to a cellular data usage, the maximum cellular data usage may then be selected from all of cellular data usages and taken as a basis for comparison to calculate a ratio between each cellular data usage for respective background application to the maximum cellular data usage to acquire a first ratio corresponding to each of the background applications. Then, a first correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the first ratio corresponding to the background application may be output, thereby the cellular data usage for the background application may be indicated by the value of the first ratio. The user may determine intuitively the proportion of the cellular data usage for the current application to the maximum cellular data usage based on the value of the first ratio, thus improving the readability and convenience to the user.
Wherein if the cellular data monitoring command is a command for starting a task menu, the first correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the first ratio corresponding to the background application may be output on the task menu.
In some embodiments, the cellular data usage for the background application and the first ratio corresponding to the background application may be displayed, and the first ratio is display at an associated position with the background application. The associated position is a position associated with the application identifier. The user may determine, based on the associated position, that the first ratio is the ratio corresponding to the background application. For example, the associated position may be a position below, above the application identifier or on the left or right of the application identifier, etc.
In this implementation the first correspondence relationship between the application identifier and the first ratio is directly displayed, and the user may determine the proportion of the cellular data usage for the current application to the maximum cellular data based on the first correspondence relationship. Therefore, the readability of the relationship between the cellular data usage for the background application and the maximum cellular data usage may be improved and convenience may be brought to the user.
Wherein if the cellular data monitoring command is a command for starting a task menu, the application identifier of the background application and the first ratio corresponding to the background application may be displayed on the task menu, wherein the first ratio being display at an associated position with the background application.
In some embodiments, a first cellular data ratio bar diagram for each background application may be generated based on the first ratio corresponding to the background application, and the application identifier of the background application and the first cellular data ratio bar diagram may be displayed, and the first cellular data ratio bar diagram may be displayed at an associated position with the application identifier. The associated position is a position associated with the application identifier, and the user may determine, based on the associated position, that a cellular data ratio bar diagram is the first cellular data ratio bar diagram corresponding to the background application. For example, the associated position may be a position below, above the application identifier or on the left of the application identifiers, etc.
In this implementation the first correspondence relationship between the application identifier and the first cellular data ratio bar diagram is directly displayed, and the user may determine the proportion of the cellular data usage for the current application to the maximum cellular data usage based on the first correspondence relationship, thereby the readability of the relationship between the cellular data usage for the background application and the maximum cellular data usage may be improved and convenience may be brought to the user.
In alternative embodiments, outputting the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application comprises: calculating a summation of a plurality of cellular data usages for a plurality of background applications to acquire a total cellular data usage; calculating a ratio between the cellular data usage for respective background applications to the total cellular data usage to acquire a second ratio corresponding to each of the background applications; and outputting a second correspondence relationship between the application identifier of each background application and the second ratio corresponding to the background application.
Wherein when outputting the second correspondence relationship, the application identifier of the background application and the second ratio corresponding to the background application may be displayed. As another example, a second cellular data ratio bar diagram may be generated when outputting the second correspondence relationship, so that the application identifier of the background application and the second cellular data ratio bar diagram may be displayed.
In this embodiment, the cellular data usage for the background application may be divided by the total cellular data usage to acquire the second ratio, so that the second correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the second ratio corresponding to the background application may be output. The user may determine intuitively the proportion of the cellular data usage for the application to the total cellular data usage based on the value of the ratio, thereby the efficiency for determining the relationship between the cellular data usage for the background application and the total cellular data may be improved and convenience may be brought to the user.
In another alternative embodiments, outputting the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application comprises: calculating a summation of cellular data usage for all applications; calculating a ratio between the cellular data usage for each background application and the summation of cellular data usage to acquire a third ratio corresponding to each of the background applications; and outputting a third correspondence relationship between the application identifier of each background application and the third ratio corresponding to the background application. Wherein all applications may be all applications that are installed locally in the terminal device.
In this embodiment, the cellular data usage for the background application may be divided by the summation of cellular data usage to acquire a third ratio, so that a third correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the third ratio corresponding to the background application may be output. The user may determine intuitively the proportion of the cellular data usage for the application to the summation of cellular data based on the value of the ratio, thereby convenience may be brought to the user.
It is to be understood that only several correspondence relationships between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for respective background application are listed in the above description, and other correspondence relationships, which are not listed herein due to limited space, are intended to be included in the scope of the disclosure.
At step 201, receiving a cellular data monitoring command to get a cellular data usage for a background application, wherein the background application is an application program running in background;
At step 202, outputting a correspondence relationship between an application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application.
At step 203, receiving a permission switch command for the background application.
At step 204, acquiring a permission to access a mobile network for the background application based on the permission switch command.
At step 205, switching the permission to access-denied if the permission is access-allowed and switching the permission to access-allowed if the permission is access-denied.
Wherein steps 201 and 202 are similar to steps 101 and 102 illustrated with respect to
Permission switch command for the background application may be received after the correspondence relationship between the application identifier of the background application and the cellular data usage for the background application is output.
In alternative embodiments, a track of a sliding operation on the application identifier of the background application through a touch screen may be detected, and receiving the permission switch command for the background application may be determined if the track of the sliding operation matches a preset sliding track.
Wherein the preset sliding track may be a sliding track that is not originally defined with a function. For example, the preset sliding track may be set as a track of sliding down if there is no trigger event corresponding to the track of sliding down in the task menu. If the trigger event corresponding to the track of sliding down in the task menu is to keep hold/release hold of the background application, the trigger track for the trigger event may be changed to sliding down first and then sliding left, and the preset sliding track may be set as sliding down first and then sliding right. Furthermore, the preset sliding track may also be other track, for example, a circle track, a triangle track, a waggle track and the like.
In the embodiment, whether the permission switch command for the background application is received may be determined by detecting whether the track of the sliding operation matches a preset sliding track. Upon receiving the permission switch command, the permission to access a mobile network for the background application may be acquired based on the permission switch command and the access permission may be switched, thereby the control over the access permission to the background applications may be realized and the efficiency to control the cellular data usage for the background application may be improved.
