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. <EOS>
