A method and an apparatus for controlling internet of things devices. The method includes: receiving a control instruction configured to control the internet of things devices and sent by a control application, where the control instruction includes an identification number of the control application and identification numbers of a plurality of internet of things devices; determining, according to the control instruction, whether the control application has authority to access the internet of things devices; sending the control instruction to the internet of things devices to enable the internet of things devices to execute the control instruction when it is determined that the control application has the authority to access the internet of things devices. Compared to a case where each internet of things device is corresponding to a control application specific thereto, efficiency of control of an intelligent terminal over the internet of things devices is improved.

Method and apparatus for controlling internet of things devices

The present invention provides a method for setting a heartbeat timer, a terminal and a server. The method includes: a terminal installed with an application receives a timer setting request carrying first setting information of a to-be-set timer transmitted by the application; the terminal transmits a timer query request to a server according to the first setting information; the timer query request carries a query identifier generated according to the first setting information; the terminal receives a timer query response returned by the server, where the timer query response carries a query result indicating whether a heartbeat timer list includes a heartbeat timer information entry matched with the query identifier; the terminal determines whether to set the to-be-set timer for the application according to the query result, and performs a corresponding setting operation. The solution can effectively manage and set a heartbeat timer within a mobile phone terminal.
