Abstract

A method for controlling charging of a terminal device includes determining whether there is a need to switch from a first charging chip currently charging a battery of the terminal device to a second charging chip waiting to charge the battery, and controlling the first charging chip to stop charging the battery and starting the second charging chip to charge the battery if it is determined that there is the need to switch.
