1. An application interface interaction method implemented by an electronic device having a foldable display screen, wherein the application interface interaction method comprises:
running a first application on the electronic device in full screen;
displaying, on a first application interface of a first application, a floating notification indicating information received by the electronic device for a second application while running the first application;
detecting, on the floating notification, a first touch operation;
obtaining, in response to the first touch operation, an aspect ratio of a screen of the electronic device;
performing, in response to the first touch operation, and based on the aspect ratio, when the electronic device is in an unfolded state, either:
displaying, a second application interface of the second application in a floating window manner on the first application interface; or
displaying the first application interface and the second application interface in a split-screen manner, and selecting according to the aspect ratio whether to display the second application interface on the split-screen; and
further in response to the first touch operation, performing, when the electronic device is in a folded state, either:
switching the first application interface to the second application interface; or
displaying, in full screen, the second application interface and displaying the first application in a floating point manner or a floating ball manner.
