Abstract
In a method to unlock a touch screen of an electronic device, a press operation is received from the touch screen pressed by a user. The touch screen includes an unlocking interface. The method determines whether the press operation is within a press area of the unlocking interface. When the press operation is within the press area, the method further controls an indicator of the unlocking interface to move at a default speed, and locates a stop position of the indicator on the touch screen when the indicator stops moving. The method unlocks the touch screen when the stop position is within a predefined area of the unlocking interface.
Claims18
A computerized-method for unlocking a touch screen of the electronic device, the method comprising:
- receiving a press operation pressed on the touch screen by a user;
- determining whether the press operation is within a press area of an unlocking interface of the touch screen;
- controlling an indicator of the unlocking interface to move at a default speed when the press operation is within the press area;
- locating a stop position of the indicator on the touch screen when the indicator stops moving;
- determining whether the stop position is within a predefined area of the unlocking interface;
- unlocking the touch screen when the stop position is within the predefined area;
- and
- displaying information on the touch screen indicating that the touch screen fails to unlock when the stop position is not within the predefined area.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a set of instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of an electronic device, causes the at least one processor to perform a method for unlocking a touch screen of the electronic device, the method comprising:
- receiving a press operation pressed on the touch screen by a user;
- determining whether the press operation is within a press area of an unlocking interface of the touch screen;
- controlling an indicator of the unlocking interface to move at a default speed when the press operation is within the press area;
- locating a stop position of the indicator on the touch screen when the indicator stops moving;
- determining whether the stop position is within a predefined area of the unlocking interface;
- unlocking the touch screen when the stop position is within the predefined area;
- and
- displaying information on the touch screen indicating that the touch screen fails to unlock when the stop position is not within the predefined area.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a touch screen comprising an unlocking interface;
- a storage system;
- at least one processor;
- and
- one or more programs that are stored in the storage system and executed by the at least one processor, the one or more programs comprising:
- a receiving module that receives a press operation pressed on the touch screen by a user;
- a determining module that determines whether the press operation is within a press area of the unlocking interface;
- a controlling module that controls an indicator of the unlocking interface to move at a default speed when the press operation is within the press area;
- a locating module that locates a stop position of the indicator on the touch screen when the indicator stops moving, and determines whether the stop position is within a predefined area of the unlocking interface;
- an unlocking module that unlocks the touch screen when the stop position is within the predefined area;
- and
- a display module that displays information on the touch screen indicating that the touch screen fails to unlock when the stop position is not within the predefined area.
