In step S101, when it is detected that an application calls a GPS positioning function, the current state information of the smart terminal and the priority information of the application are acquired.

In the embodiment of the present invention, when the application calls the GPS positioning function, it will trigger the GPS positioning application program to start the positioning function, but the GPS positioning function has not been started yet. Preferably, whether an application calls the GPS positioning function can be detected by detecting the calling instruction sent by the application to the GPS positioning application. When it is detected that an application calls the GPS positioning function, the current state information of the smart terminal and the priority information of the application are obtained. Wherein, the current status information of the smart terminal includes, but is not limited to, the smart terminal is in the on-screen state, and the smart terminal is in the off-screen state. The priority is determined according to the function of the application program, including but not limited to the first priority and the second priority. Exemplarily, for applications related to navigation (such as Baidu map, ride car network, etc.), its priority is the first priority; for other applications except applications related to navigation (such as social software, including but not limited to QQ, Weibo, WeChat, etc.), its priority is the second priority.

If the application related to navigation calls the GPS positioning function when the smart terminal is in the screen-off state, then start the GPS positioning function, and turn off the GPS positioning function when the preset conditions are met, so as to realize that the smart terminal is in the screen-off state In the state, the current location information is broadcast periodically by voice. When the application is other than navigation-related applications (such as social software, including but not limited to QQ, Weibo, WeChat, etc.), and the GPS positioning function is called when the smart terminal is on the bright screen, at this time, Start the GPS positioning function, and close the GPS positioning function when the preset conditions are met, thereby effectively solving the problem of high power consumption of the smart terminal caused by the application calling GPS at will; When calling the GPS positioning function when the terminal is in the off-screen state, the GPS positioning function is prohibited from starting, thereby preventing malicious applications from stealing the user's personal privacy by calling the GPS positioning function, and improving the security of GPS calling.

The embodiment of the present invention increases the control of calling GPS by the application program. Whenever it is detected that the application program calls the GPS positioning function, the current state information of the smart terminal and the priority information of the application program are obtained; according to the current status information of the smart terminal The state information and the priority information of the application program control the start of the GPS positioning function; thereby realizing the dynamic adjustment of the way the application program calls the GPS positioning function, avoiding the GPS positioning function being in the open state for a long time, effectively solving the existing problem When the application program calls the GPS positioning function at will, the power consumption of the smart terminal is high, and it prevents the malicious application program from calling the GPS positioning function to steal the user's personal privacy, and improves the security of the GPS positioning function call.
