    Abstract: The present application discloses example information processing methods and electronic devices. One example method includes obtaining a touch gesture operation on a suspended button, and determining, according to the gesture operation, a first pressure intensity value that acts on the suspended button. If a determination is made that the first pressure intensity value is greater than a response pressure threshold, a detection process occurs to determine whether a display location of the suspended button overlaps with a first display icon displayed on a desktop of an electronic device. If it does, a function corresponding to the first display icon is invoked.

  • Publication number: 20190026535
    Abstract: In a processing method, an electronic device may detect, in a locked state, an operation performed on a fingerprint sensor, and determine a result of matching a fingerprint collected by the fingerprint sensor with a preset fingerprint, where the matching result is matching or not matching. When an included angle between a direction of a screen and a gravity direction falls beyond a preset range, the electronic device skips executing a response corresponding to the matching result. When an included angle between a direction of a screen and a gravity direction falls within a preset range, the electronic device executes a response corresponding to the matching result.
