Abstract

A vibration alerting mobile terminal configured to adjust an amplitude parameter and a frequency parameter of a vibration alerting mode, to implement diverse vibration alerting modes to meet vibration requirements of the mobile terminal in different environments. The terminal provides for: displaying a first interface, wherein the first interface includes an amplitude adjustment control, a frequency adjustment control, and a vibration mode adjustment control; responding to an adjustment operation for at least one of the amplitude adjustment control, the frequency adjustment control, and the vibration mode adjustment control; generating a first vibration alerting mode; and alerting a user according to the first vibration alerting mode.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A mobile terminal, comprising:
a display;
a memory configured to store a program; and
a processor configured to execute the program to cause the mobile terminal to control the display to:
display a first interface comprising an amplitude adjustment control, a frequency adjustment control, a vibration mode adjustment control, and a setting interface of a first application installed on the mobile terminal;
display a first event and a second event of the first application in the first interface;
display a vibration mode corresponding to the first event in the first interface in response to an adjustment operation for a vibration mode adjustment control corresponding to the first event;
display a vibration mode corresponding to the second event in the first interface in response to an adjustment operation of a vibration mode adjustment control corresponding to the second event; and

wherein the processor further causes the mobile terminal to:
generate a first vibration alerting mode in response to an adjustment operation, wherein the adjustment operation comprises activation of at least one of the amplitude adjustment control, the frequency adjustment control, and the vibration mode adjustment control; and
alert a user according to the first vibration alerting mode.

2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the program to cause the mobile terminal display to:
display a third interface in response to an adjustment operation for the function selection icon, wherein the third interface comprises a function selection icon of a vibration mode; and
display a selected vibration mode in the first interface in response to a selection operation of the function selection icon of the vibration mode.

3. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the program to cause the mobile terminal to display a selected vibration mode in the first interface in response to an adjustment operation of a function selection icon.

4. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the program to cause the mobile terminal to:
obtain a trigger instruction, wherein the trigger instruction comprises at least one of: a user-input adjustment operation, a preset trigger time, a preset trigger geographic location, a preset trigger action mode, or a preset trigger time, wherein the preset trigger time comprises a preset time period and a preset moment; and
display the first interface according to the trigger instruction.

5. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the vibration mode is configured to change a trend of a vibration amplitude or a vibration frequency at which the mobile terminal vibrates.

6. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the program to cause the mobile terminal to:
obtain a first adjustment operation from a touchscreen;
adjust a vibration parameter for a first event according to the first adjustment operation, and generate the first vibration alerting mode, wherein the vibration parameter comprises a vibration amplitude, a vibration frequency, and a vibration mode, and the vibration mode is used to change a trend of the vibration amplitude and/or change a trend of the vibration frequency;
obtain a second adjustment operation;
adjust at least one vibration parameter for a second event according to the second adjustment operation, and generate a second vibration alerting mode;
alert a user according to the first vibration alerting mode when executing the first event; and
alert the user according to the second vibration alerting mode when executing the second event.

7. The mobile terminal of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute a program to cause the mobile terminal to alert the user according to a priority ranking of the first and second events.

8. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the program to cause the mobile terminal to:
obtain a first adjustment operation from a touchscreen;
adjust, according to the first adjustment operation, a vibration parameter corresponding to a first application, and generating the first vibration alerting mode, wherein the vibration parameter comprises a vibration amplitude, a vibration frequency, or a vibration mode to a change trend of the vibration amplitude and/or a change trend of the vibration frequency;
obtain a second adjustment operation;
adjust, according to the second adjustment operation, a vibration parameter corresponding to a second application, and generate a second vibration alerting mode;
alert a user according to the first vibration alerting mode when executing an application corresponding to the first application; and
alert a user according to the second vibration alerting mode when executing an application corresponding to the second application.

9. The mobile terminal of claim 8 , wherein the first adjustment operation is triggered in a setting interface of the mobile terminal or in a setting interface of the first application, and wherein the second adjustment operation is triggered in a setting interface of the mobile terminal, or in a setting interface of the second application.

10. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the program to further cause the mobile terminal to:
obtain a target song;
obtain a to-be-converted song from the target song, wherein a duration of the to-be-converted song comprises a whole or partial duration of the target song; and
perform conversion to a vibration amplitude in a customized vibration mode based on a tone of the to-be-converted song, and perform conversion to a vibration frequency in the customized vibration mode based on a rhythm of the to-be-converted song.

11. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the program to further cause the mobile terminal to:
obtain a target record;
obtain a to-be-converted record from the target record, wherein duration of the to-be-converted record comprises a whole or partial duration of the target record; and
perform conversion to a vibration amplitude in a customized vibration mode based on a tone of the to-be-converted record, and perform conversion to a vibration frequency in the customized vibration mode based on a rhythm of the to-be-converted record.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause an apparatus to:
control a display comprising a touchscreen to display a first interface, wherein the first interface comprises an amplitude adjustment control, a frequency adjustment control, and a vibration mode adjustment control;
obtain a first adjustment operation from the touchscreen;
adjust, according to the first adjustment operation, a vibration parameter corresponding to a first application, and generate a first vibration alerting mode, wherein the vibration parameter comprises a vibration amplitude, a vibration frequency, or a vibration mode to a change trend of the vibration amplitude and/or a change trend of the vibration frequency, and wherein the first adjustment operation comprises activation of at least one of the amplitude adjustment control, the frequency adjustment control, and the vibration mode adjustment control;
