An air conditioner, a control method for an air conditioner, and a computer-readable storage medium, the air conditioner comprising: an air conditioner body (100), an air outlet (102) being provided on the air conditioner body (100); an air output assembly (200), configured to adjust the air output of the air outlet (102), the air output assembly (200) being provided with a plurality of operative configurations; a detection device, configured to acquire a distance value of a target object from the air conditioner; and a controller, the controller being electrically connected to the air output assembly (200) and the detection device, and on the basis of the distance value, controlling the air output assembly (200) to switch operative configurations. The air output assembly is controlled to switch operative configurations on the basis of the distance of a target object from the air conditioner, allowing the region where the "target object" is located to be in a windless feeling state, thus ensuring that air will not "blow directly" on a person's body, improving the comfort of the air conditioner. Meanwhile, in a region outside the region where the target object is located, the amount of air blowing can be increased via "direct blowing" or other modes, thereby improving cooling efficiency under the condition of guaranteeing the need of persons to not feel the air blowing, and thereby satisfying multiple requirements of the user.
