A data input method is implemented by an electronic device that includes a storage component, a display device and a processor. The storage component stores an application to be executed by the processor, in response to user-input selection of the application, to implement the data input method for entering data in an input field displayed on the display device. The data input method includes controlling the display device to display at least one hotkey that is associated with pre-stored data, and in response to user-input interaction associated with the at least one hotkey, entering the pre-stored data in the input field.
