Abstract

Systems, methods, and software can be used to provide reminding information. In some aspect, a special event is determined to occur. In response to determining that the special event occurs, a network type currently used by a device is acquired. Historical network usage information corresponding to the network type is determined. The network type and a traffic usage situation is outputted based on the historical usage information.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method, comprising:
 determining that a special event occurs;   in response to determining that the special event occurs, acquiring a network type currently used by a device;   determining, according to the acquired network type, historical network usage information corresponding to the network type; and   outputting the network type and a traffic usage situation based on the historical usage information.   
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the special event comprises one or more of a to-be-monitored user operation, a handover of the current network type of the device, enabling of a to-be-monitored application program, or a case in which network traffic used by a to-be-monitored application program exceeds a threshold. 
     
     
         3 . The method according to  claim 2 , further comprising:
 presenting one or more application programs installed on a system;   receiving a user selection; and   setting the to-be-monitored application program according to the user selection   
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprises:
 determining that the network type currently used by the device is a to-be-monitored network type, wherein the to-be-monitored network type comprises at least a payment-required type; and   wherein the historical network usage information is determined in response to determining that   the network type is the to-be-monitored network type.   
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the network type and the traffic usage situation are outputted in at least one of
 a text, a picture, an animation, or audio,   and the method further comprising stopping the outputting after a preset time elapses.   
     
     
         6 . An information reminding apparatus, comprising:
 at least one processor; and   a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to the at least one processor and storing programming instructions for execution by the at least one processor, the programming instructions instruct the at least one processor to:   monitor whether a special event currently occurs on a device;   when the event monitoring module monitors that a special event occurs, acquire a network type currently used by the device; and determine, according to the acquired network type, network historical usage information corresponding to the network type; and   remind a user according to the network historical usage information, so as to notify the user of the currently used network type and a traffic usage situation.   
     
     
         7 . The apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the special event comprises at least one of a to-be-monitored user operation, a handover of the current network type of the device, enabling of a to-be-monitored application program, or a case in which network traffic used by a to-be-monitored application program exceeds a threshold. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein the programming instructions further instruct the at least one processor to:
 present one or more application programs installed on a system;   receive a user selection; and   set the to-be-monitored application program according to the user selection   
     
     
         9 . The apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the programming instructions further instruct the at least one processor to:
 determine that the network type currently used by the device is a to-be-monitored network type, wherein the to-be-monitored network type comprises at least a payment-required type; and   wherein the historical network usage information is determined in response to determining that the network type is a to-be-monitored network type.   
     
     
         10 . The apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the network type and the traffic usage situation are outputted in at least one of, and the programming instructions further instruct the at least one processor to stop the outputting after a preset time elapses. 
     
     
         11 . An electronic terminal, comprising at least one processor, a memory, and an input and output module, wherein the memory stores at least a computer program, and the at least one processor is configured to invoke the program stored in the memory, so as to control the input and output module, and the at least one processor, the memory, and the input and output module communicate with each other by using a bus; wherein
 the at least one processor is configured to determine whether a network type currently used by a device is a to-be-monitored network type;   the memory is configured to store network historical usage information and current network information; and   the input and output module is further configured to output the currently used network type and a traffic usage situation.   
     
     
         12 . (canceled) 
     
     
         13 . The electronic terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the input and output module is further configured to present to the user all application programs installed on a system; or configured to receive a list of to-be-monitored application programs that is pushed by a server; or configured to present to the user a user operation that can be identified by a system; and
 the at least one processors are further configured to set a to-be-monitored application program according to selection of the user; or configured to set a to-be-monitored application program according to an application program in the list of to-be-monitored application programs; or configured to receive a list of to-be-monitored application programs that is sent by the server in response to a query request of the user equipment, wherein the query request of the user equipment can be used to represent an application program installed on the user equipment; or configured to set a to-be-monitored user operation according to selection of the user.   
     
     
         14 . The electronic terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to: determine whether the network type currently used by the device is a to-be-monitored network type, wherein the to-be-monitored network type comprises at least a payment-required type; and when the network type currently used by the device is the to-be-monitored network type, determine, according to the acquired network type, the network historical usage information corresponding to the network type. 
     
     
         15 . The electronic terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the input and output module is specifically configured to: present the currently used network type and the traffic usage situation to the user in one or a combination of multiple manners of four presentation manners of a text, a picture, an animation, and audio, and stop the presentation after a preset time elapses. 
     
     
         16 . The method according to  claim 2 , further comprising:
 receiving a list of to-be-monitored application programs from a server, and   setting the to-be-monitored application program based on the list of to-be-monitored application programs.
