A method of processing fingerprint information, comprising: receiving, by a terminal, fingerprint information in response to a fingerprint input operation of a user, wherein the fingerprint information is configured to trigger the terminal to execute a first application; and outputting, by the terminal, fingerprint erasure prompt information when the execution of the first application is finished, wherein the fingerprint erasure prompt information is configured to prompt the user to erase a fingerprint impression corresponding to the fingerprint information; characterized in that, the method further comprises: determining, by the terminal, one or more second applications according to a set rule, the one or more second applications are subjected to a function restriction after the execution of the first application; displaying, by the terminal, a trajectory that may effectively erase the fingerprint impression in a fingerprint erasure box on an interface of the terminal; performing, by the terminal, function restrictions to the one or more second applications before an erasure operation for the fingerprint impression is detected; and releasing, by the terminal, function restrictions to the one or more second applications after the erasure operation for the fingerprint impression is detected. receiving, by a terminal, fingerprint information in response to a fingerprint input operation of a user, wherein the fingerprint information is configured to trigger the terminal to execute a first application; and outputting, by the terminal, fingerprint erasure prompt information when the execution of the first application is finished, wherein the fingerprint erasure prompt information is configured to prompt the user to erase a fingerprint impression corresponding to the fingerprint information; characterized in that, the method further comprises: determining, by the terminal, one or more second applications according to a set rule, the one or more second applications are subjected to a function restriction after the execution of the first application; displaying, by the terminal, a trajectory that may effectively erase the fingerprint impression in a fingerprint erasure box on an interface of the terminal; performing, by the terminal, function restrictions to the one or more second applications before an erasure operation for the fingerprint impression is detected; and releasing, by the terminal, function restrictions to the one or more second applications after the erasure operation for the fingerprint impression is detected. determining, by the terminal, one or more second applications according to a set rule, the one or more second applications are subjected to a function restriction after the execution of the first application; displaying, by the terminal, a trajectory that may effectively erase the fingerprint impression in a fingerprint erasure box on an interface of the terminal; performing, by the terminal, function restrictions to the one or more second applications before an erasure operation for the fingerprint impression is detected; and releasing, by the terminal, function restrictions to the one or more second applications after the erasure operation for the fingerprint impression is detected.
