Abstract

A method for displaying a BLUETOOTH device identifier includes a first electronic device that broadcasts a first BLUETOOTH packet. The first BLUETOOTH packet includes first indication information. A second electronic device broadcasts a second BLUETOOTH packet. A third electronic device displays a BLUETOOTH scanning interface, and scans a third BLUETOOTH packet. The third electronic device displays the first link identifier and a second link identifier on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the first BLUETOOTH packet and the second BLUETOOTH packet. The third electronic device displays the first link identifier in the highlighting manner on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to the first BLUETOOTH packet comprising the first indication information.

First claim

1 . A method comprising:
broadcasting, by a first electronic device, a first BLUETOOTH packet comprising first indication information, wherein the first indication information instructs to display, in a highlighting manner, a first link identifier corresponding to the first electronic device; broadcasting, by a second electronic device, a second BLUETOOTH packet; displaying, by a third electronic device, a BLUETOOTH scanning interface; scanning, by the third electronic device, for BLUETOOTH packets; receiving, by the third electronic device in response to the scanning, the first BLUETOOTH packet; displaying, by the third electronic device, the first link identifier in the highlighting manner and on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the first BLUETOOTH packet and in response to the first BLUETOOTH packet comprising the first indication information; receiving, by the third electronic device in response to the scanning, the second BLUETOOTH packet; and displaying, by the third electronic device, a second link identifier on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the second BLUETOOTH packet, wherein the second link identifier corresponds to the second electronic device.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
further displaying the first link identifier before the second link identifier; further displaying the first link identifier being selected; or further displaying the first link identifier in a display manner different from that of the second link identifier.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising further displaying, by the third electronic device, the first link identifier in the highlighting manner on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface within a first preset duration starting from a moment when the third electronic device receives the first BLUETOOTH packet.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein before broadcasting the first BLUETOOTH packet, the method further comprises detecting, by the first electronic device, that a first motion status of the first electronic device has changed under a preset condition.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein before displaying the first link identifier and the second link identifier, the method further comprises displaying, by the third electronic device, motion prompt information on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface, and wherein the motion prompt information indicates a second motion status that meets the preset condition.

6 . The method of claim 4 , further comprising broadcasting, by the first electronic device, the first BLUETOOTH packet within a second preset duration starting from a moment when the first electronic device detects that the first motion status has changed under the preset condition.

7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising broadcasting, by the first electronic device, a third BLUETOOTH packet after the second preset duration, wherein the third BLUETOOTH packet does not comprise the first indication information.

8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
logging in, by the first electronic device, to a first account; receiving, by a fourth electronic device, the first BLUETOOTH packet, wherein the first BLUETOOTH packet further comprises the first account; broadcasting, by the fourth electronic device and in response to the first BLUETOOTH packet comprising the first indication information and the fourth electronic device logging in to the first account, a fourth BLUETOOTH packet comprising second indication information, wherein the second indication information instructs to display, in the highlighting manner, a third link identifier corresponding to the fourth electronic device; receiving, by the third electronic device in response to the scanning, the fourth BLUETOOTH packet; and displaying, by the third electronic device, the third link identifier in the highlighting manner on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the fourth BLUETOOTH packet.

9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
logging in, by the first electronic device, to a first account, wherein the first BLUETOOTH packet further comprises the first account; broadcasting, by a fourth electronic device, a fourth BLUETOOTH packet comprising the first account; logging in, by the fourth electronic device, to the first account; receiving, by the third electronic device in response to the scanning, the fourth BLUETOOTH packet; and displaying, by the third electronic device, a third link identifier in the highlighting manner and on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the fourth BLUETOOTH packet and in response to the fourth BLUETOOTH packet comprising the first account, wherein the third link identifier corresponds to the fourth electronic device.

10 . A method implemented by a third electronic device, wherein the method comprises:
displaying a BLUETOOTH scanning interface; scanning for BLUETOOTH packets; receiving, from a first electronic device and in response to the scanning, a first BLUETOOTH packet comprising indication information, wherein the indication information instructs to display, in a highlighting manner, a first link identifier corresponding to the first electronic device; receiving, from a second electronic device and in response to the scanning, a second BLUETOOTH packet; displaying the first link identifier in the highlighting manner and on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the first BLUETOOTH packet and in response to the first BLUETOOTH packet comprising the indication information; and displaying a second link identifier on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the second BLUETOOTH packet, wherein the second link identifier corresponds to the second electronic device.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein before displaying the first link identifier and the second link identifier, the method further comprises displaying motion prompt information on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface, and wherein the motion prompt information indicates a motion status that meets a preset condition.

12 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising further displaying the first link identifier in the highlighting manner on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface within a preset duration starting from a moment when the third electronic device receives the first BLUETOOTH packet.

13 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the first electronic device has logged in to a first account, wherein the first BLUETOOTH packet further comprises the first account, and wherein the method further comprises:
receiving, from a fourth electronic device and in response to the scanning, a fourth BLUETOOTH packet comprising the first account; and displaying a third link identifier in the highlighting manner and on the BLUETOOTH scanning interface in response to receiving the fourth BLUETOOTH packet and in response to the fourth BLUETOOTH packet comprising the first account, wherein the third link identifier corresponds to the fourth electronic device.

14 .- 33 . (canceled)

34 . A third electronic device comprising:
a memory configured to store instructions; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to cause the third electronic device to:
display a BLUETOOTH scanning interface;
scan for BLUETOOTH packets;
receive, from a first electronic device and in response to the scanning, a first BLUETOOTH packet comprising indication information, wherein the indication information instructs to display, in a highlighting manner, a first link identifier corresponding to the first electronic device;
receive
