System and method for recommending applications based on historical usage

摘要

An application program recommending method may include acquiring current context information of the terminal, acquiring an amount of context information generated when the terminal runs a first application program, where the first application program refers to an application program stored in the terminal, determining a to-be-used recommending mechanism according to the amount of the context information generated when the terminal runs the first application program, and determining, according to the to-be-used recommending mechanism, a second application program corresponding to the current context information, where the second application program refers to a to-be-recommended application program; and displaying the second application program. In this way, accuracy of predicting an application program to be used by a user is improved. Moreover, when historical information of using an application program by the user is insufficient, a to-be-recommended application program can also be accurately determined.
