Abstract

A method, a computer-readable medium, and a system for battery-charging management are provided. The method comprises: recording a respective time that previous trickle charging was carried out by a user; determining that a time interval between a current time and the respective time for the previous trickle charging has reached a preset charging cycle; and prompting the user to carry out next trickle charging in response to determining that the time interval between the current time and the respective time for the previous trickle charging has reached the preset charging cycle. The charging cycle is managed according to recorded charging actions of a user; therefore, the user can be prompted and guided in an intuitive and clear way to carry out charging cycle management, and be prompted intelligently and regularly, so as to extend the service life of a battery.
