Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method and a device for displaying descriptive information. The method includes: hiding descriptive information of an application icon on a screen interface of a terminal device; determining whether a request for viewing the descriptive information from a user exists according to a detected operation action from the user; and displaying corresponding descriptive information of the application icon in a connected region if the request exists. Accordingly, by hiding descriptive information of application icons, a screen of a terminal device may keep neat when a user does not want to view the descriptive information; meanwhile, the descriptive information may be displayed promptly on the screen of the terminal when it is detected that the user requests for viewing the descriptive information.
