Abstract

The present disclosure relates to the field of electronic devices and provides an application switching method, apparatus, and a graphical user interface to resolve a problem that multi-task switching has a relatively high requirement on the hardware of an electronic device. The application switching method includes: detecting a touch pressure value that is generated by a touch operation when a target region of a touchscreen is touched; when detecting that the touch pressure value is greater than a preset threshold, generating a first display window in a current display interface of an electronic device, and presenting a first application in the first display window according to a preset rule; and switching the current display interface to a display interface of the first application if detecting an enable signal for the first application, where the current display interface is different from the display interface of the first application.
