Abstract
A method of switching a screen of a mobile communications device from a screen locked state to a screen unlocked state is provided. The mobile communications device includes a display panel configured to display the screen that has a background section and a first section in the screen locked state. The method includes: moving the first section from a first location to a second location of the screen in the screen locked state when an screen unlocking requirement is determined to be satisfied; and keeping displaying the first section at the second location of the screen after switching the screen from the screen locked state to the screen unlocked state. A non-transitory computer-readable medium and a mobile communications device for switching a screen of the mobile communications device from a screen locked state to a screen unlocked state are also provided.
