  • Patent number: 12260143
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first screen and a second screen. A high-power sensor of the electronic device is in a disabled state, and a low-power sensor of the electronic device is in an enabled state. The electronic device includes a foldable device. Based on this, after the electronic device receives a screen-on trigger signal from the low-power sensor or a processor of the electronic device, the electronic device determines a to-be-lit-up first target screen based on the screen-on trigger signal, and then controls the first target screen to be lit up.

  • Publication number: 20230244510
    Abstract: A task start method includes: in a process in which a first task of a first application is run and performed on a screen, when the first task triggers a task jump for a second task, and when a window is required to display the second task, invoking a window start interface of a system; and starting the second task based on the window start interface. Starting the second task includes, when the second task supports floating window displaying, based on an unchanged display status of the first task, starting the second task, creating the first floating window based on the window start interface, and displaying the second task based on the first floating window. According to the method in an embodiment of this application, a current task directly triggers to start a floating window.
