Card display method, electronic device, and computer readable storage medium

Abstract

An electronic device in this application includes a display, a processor, a memory, and a computer program stored in the memory. When the computer program is executed by the processor, the electronic device is caused to perform the following steps: displaying a current screen of a home screen, where the current screen of the home screen displays several icons and a background; detecting a user input on a first icon of the several icons; and displaying a first card on the current screen, where the first card does not fill up the current screen. The first icon corresponds to a first application. The first card includes: first card content, including part of content included in an M-layer interface that is displayed after the first application is launched; and N controls, where each of the N controls is used to launch a corresponding application, the application corresponds to a corresponding icon that is displayed on the home screen before the first card is displayed, the first card is different from all and any part of the M-layer interface that is displayed after the first application is launched, and both M and N are positive integers. A user can not only intuitively obtain card content, but also directly launch several second applications, and can also directly perform an operation on the current screen of the home screen.
