The invention provides a display method and device for a terminal interface. The method includes the steps that hand shape characteristic information of a terminal user is acquired; the current touch range of the terminal user is determined according to the hand shape characteristic information; the display position of an operation control in a touch screen interface of the terminal is adjusted within the touch range for display. By the adoption of the technical scheme, the problem that in the correlation technology, the position of a touch operation space in the terminal display interface cannot be reasonably determined in large-screen terminal equipment is solved.
