1. A control method for a self-moving device, the method comprising:
obtaining a first working time corresponding to an unworked area in a target working area when a current remaining power of the self-moving device meets a preset charging condition, the target working area being an area where the self-moving device works;
determining a first power consumption required by the unworked area according to the first working time; and
charging the self-moving device according to the first power consumption,
wherein the obtaining a first working time corresponding to an unworked area in a target working area when a current remaining power of the self-moving device meets a preset charging condition, comprises:
obtaining a current position of the self-moving device when the current remaining power of the self-moving device meets the preset charging condition; and
obtaining the first working time according to the current position of the self-moving device and a relationship between each working position in the target working area and a remaining working time,
wherein the relationship between each working position in the target working area and the remaining working time is determined according to:
obtain a working process of the self-moving device completing the work of the entire target working area at least once in a historical time period, wherein the working process comprises each working position of the self-moving device and a time point corresponding to each working position obtained at preset time intervals; and
determine the relationship between each working position in the target working area and the remaining working time according to the time point corresponding to each working position of the self-moving device in each working process.
