## Abstract

A configuration information sharing method, a terminal device, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The configuration information sharing method, performed by a first terminal device, includes: obtaining first configuration information, where the first configuration information includes at least one of system configuration information or application configuration information of the first terminal device; and sharing the first configuration information.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A configuration information sharing method, performed by a first terminal device, the method comprising:
obtaining first configuration information, wherein the first configuration information comprises at least one of system configuration information or application configuration information of the first terminal device, wherein the first configuration information further comprises information modified by a user of the first terminal device based on configuration information of the first terminal device, wherein the modification keeps the configuration of the first terminal device unchanged; and
sharing the first configuration information with a first target device using a communication tool selected by the user when the first target device comprises a second terminal device or a public platform.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The configuration information sharing method according to claim 1, wherein the first target device further comprises a cloud server.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The configuration information sharing method according to claim 1, wherein sharing the first configuration information with the first target device comprises:
displaying a communication tool selection interface;
receiving a first input from the user for selecting the communication tool on the communication tool selection interface; and
sending the first configuration information to the second terminal device or the public platform using the communication tool in response to the first input.

### Claim 4 (depends on 2)

The configuration information sharing method according to claim 2, wherein before obtaining the first configuration information, the method further comprises:
displaying a configuration information display interface, wherein at least one of the system configuration information or application configuration information of the first terminal device is displayed on the configuration information display interface; and
obtaining the first configuration information comprises:
receiving a second input for selecting configuration information on the configuration information display interface; and
obtaining the first configuration information in response to the second input,
wherein the first configuration information further comprises at least one of the following:
a part of the system configuration information; or
a part of the application configuration information,
wherein the modified configuration information comprises a part of modified system configuration information or
a part of modified application configuration information, and the modification does not change the configuration of the first terminal device.

### Claim 5

A configuration information sharing method performed by a second terminal device, the method comprising:
obtaining first information from a target device, wherein the target device comprises a first terminal device, a cloud server, or a public platform; and
setting configuration of the second terminal device according to the obtained first information,
wherein the obtained first information comprises at least one of system configuration information or application configuration information of the target device, wherein the obtained first information further comprises information modified by a user of the target device, wherein the modification keeps the configuration of the target device unchanged, wherein the first information obtained from the target device is shared through a communication tool selected by the user of the target device when the target device comprises the first terminal device or the public platform.

### Claim 6

A terminal device, comprising: a memory having a computer program stored thereon; and a processor, wherein the computer program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform a configuration information sharing method, comprising:
obtaining first configuration information, wherein the first configuration information comprises at least one of system configuration information or application configuration information of the terminal device, wherein the first configuration information further comprises information modified by a user of the first terminal device based on configuration information of the first terminal device, wherein the modification keeps the configuration of the first terminal device unchanged; and
sharing the first configuration information with a first target device using a communication tool selected by the user when the first target device comprises a second terminal device or a public platform.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The terminal device according to claim 6,
wherein the first target device further comprises a cloud server.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

The terminal device according to claim 6, wherein sharing the first configuration information with the first target device comprises:
displaying a communication tool selection interface;
receiving a first input from the user for selecting the communication tool on the communication tool selection interface; and
sending the first configuration information to another terminal device or the public platform using the communication tool in response to the first input.

### Claim 9 (depends on 7)

The terminal device according to claim 7, wherein before obtaining the first configuration information, the method further comprises:
displaying a configuration information display interface, wherein at least one of the system configuration information or application configuration information of the terminal device is displayed on the configuration information display interface, and
wherein obtaining the first configuration information comprises:
receiving a second input for selecting configuration information on the configuration information display interface; and
obtaining the first configuration information in response to the second input,
wherein the first configuration information further comprises at least one of the following:
a part of the system configuration information; or
a part of the application configuration information,
wherein the modified configuration information comprises a part of modified system configuration information or
a part of modified application configuration information, and the modification does not change the configuration of the terminal device.

### Claim 10

A terminal device, comprising: a memory having a computer program stored thereon; and a processor, wherein the computer program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform a configuration information sharing method, comprising: obtaining first information from a target device, wherein the target device comprises a first terminal device, a cloud server, or a public platform; and
setting configuration of the terminal device according to the obtained first information,
wherein the obtained first information comprises at least one of system configuration information or application configuration information of the target device, wherein the obtained first information further comprises information modified by a user of the target device, wherein the modification keeps the configuration of the target device unchanged, wherein the first information obtained from the target device is shared through a communication tool selected by the user of the target device when the target device comprises the first terminal device or the public platform.
