Select the corresponding contact item in the speed dial interface to dial it, as shown in Figure 1B; 3, call out the corresponding edit menu in the SMS collaboration interface, select the dial option to dial, as shown in Figure 1C; 4 1. Directly input a number in the dial pad to dial, as shown in FIG. 1D .

In each of the above solutions, no matter dialing a phone or inputting a number, it is necessary to enter a separate interface for operation. When the user needs to make a call while operating on other interfaces, the user needs to switch from the other interface to one of the above four interfaces to make a call. The operation process is relatively cumbersome. At the same time, it is easy to cause some unnecessary misoperations in the process of switching interfaces, which affects the user's operating experience.

Therefore, there is a need for a new dialing technology, which can enable users to perform dialing operations in any scene where the mobile terminal can input numbers, so that the dialing operation on the mobile terminal becomes more free and efficient, and the user experience is improved. .

FIG. 5A to FIG. 5B show schematic diagrams of module relationships of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in Figure 5A, in the scenario where the input content of the edit box 5022 is completed through an input method, the mobile terminal includes the following four functional modules: the application program 502 where the edit box 5022 is located, the input management system 504, and the input method module 506 . The dialing application module 508 . Generally, these four modules are four different processes in an intelligent system; in a single-process system, they are four different threads. The input management system 504, the application program 502, and the input method module 506 all interact with each other. The input management system 504 manages the focus edit box 5022 of the current system and manages the currently used input method. The input method module 506 is used for input characters into the focus edit box 5022.

In this embodiment, the input method module 506 can be used to judge the content in the edit box 5022 in real time, and when the digital content in the edit box 5022 is a dialable phone number, a dial key is displayed on or above the designated position of the input method interface. The user clicks the dial key, and the relevant digital content of the telephone number is transferred to the dial application module 508, and dials directly.

In another implementation, as shown in FIG. 5B , in a scenario where the content input of the edit box 5022 does not rely on an input method, the application 502 where the edit box 5022 is located may directly call the dialer application 508 . When the user performs a preset operation on the edit box 5022, such as long pressing in the edit box 5022, it is judged whether the content in the edit box 5022 contains numbers, and if it is determined that the contents of the edit box 5022 contain numbers and meet the dialing conditions, a pop-up dial menu. The user clicks the dialing option in the dialing menu, extracts the content in the edit box 5022 and transfers it to the dialing application 508 for dialing.

In the above scenario, with reference to FIG. 4A to FIG. 4C , the interface effect of the mobile terminal is illustrated by taking the interface of editing a short message and inputting a URL in a browser as an example.

As shown in FIG. 4A, the user is sending a text message to a friend in the text message editing interface 402, but still considers to call back directly. Then, the user inputs the phone number of the friend in the edit box 404 (if the number is not in the address book, the interface prompts the user whether to save the number in the address book). When the number input is completed, the input method module of the mobile terminal judges that the content in the edit box 404 meets the digital content of the dialing condition, so the dialing key is displayed at the designated position 406 on the input method interface, or as shown in Figure 4B, The dial key is displayed at the edge position 408 of the input method interface. The user clicks the above-mentioned displayed dial key, and then directly dials out the call.

As shown in FIG. 4C , the user originally wants to input a website address in the browser input interface 410 , and needs to make a phone call at this time, so the user directly inputs the phone number in the address bar 412 . The input method module of the mobile terminal judges that the content in the address bar 412 meets the digital content of the dialing condition, so a dialing key is displayed at the designated position 414 on the input method interface, and the user can directly dial out the call by clicking the dialing key.

In the above scenario, the interface effect specifically implemented by the mobile terminal will be described in detail by taking the calculator interface as an example with reference to FIG. 4D and FIG. 4E .

As shown in FIG. 4D , the user is doing calculations in the calculator interface 416 and suddenly remembers to make a call. Therefore, the user directly enters the phone number in the edit box 418 of the calculator interface 416 (as shown in FIG. 4E ) (if the number is not in the address book, the interface prompts the user whether to save the number to the address book), In 418, a preset operation action is performed, such as long press (the preset operation action can be the default action set in the mobile terminal, or an action set by the user himself), if the calculator application judges the value in the edit box 418 The content matches the digital content of the dialing condition, so a context menu 420 including dialing options pops up, as shown in FIG. 4E . The user can directly dial out the call by clicking the dial out option in the context menu 420 .

The technical solution of the present invention has been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Through the technical solution of the present invention, it is possible for the user to perform a dialing operation in any scene where a number can be input in the mobile terminal, and the user does not need to switch the current application interface, so that the dialing operation on the mobile terminal becomes more free and fast , improve user experience.
