Installation interface display method and apparatus

The present invention discloses an installation interface display method and apparatus, and belongs to the field of computer technologies. The method comprises: in a process of installing an application, performing an ith cutting operation on an i-1th installation interface of the application, wherein 1<=i<=j; after completing the ith cutting operation, determining a remained ith installation interface; replacing the i-1th installation interface with the ith installation interface for displaying; and updating i to i+1, and continuing to perform a step of performing an ith cutting operation on an i-1th installation interface of the application. The apparatus comprises: an interface cutting module, an interface determining module, an interface display module, and an operation circulation module. According to the installation interface display method and apparatus, a problem is resolved that a large number of processing resources of a device are consumed because the terminal draws an installation process of the application to a progress bar for multiple times, thereby achieving an effect of saving the processing resources of the terminal.
