1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- displaying, on a screen of a computing device, a prompt that requests user selection of an action to be performed by the computing device;
receiving, while displaying the prompt, hands-based user input to the computing device that is not responsive to the prompt;
while displaying the prompt and continuing to receive the hands-based user input that is not responsive to the prompt;
receiving hands-free user input to the computing device, anddetermining, by the computing device, whether the hands-free user input is responsive to the prompt; and
performing, by the computing device, in response to determining that the hands-free user input is responsive to the prompt, a selected action that is indicated by the hands-free user input.

Abstract
A method includes receiving a first input through a hands-based input device. A prompt is then output, and input responsive to the prompt may be received through either of a hands-based input device or a hands-free input device. Responsive to receiving a second input through a hands-free input device, a determination that the second input is responsive to the prompt may be made, an operation based on the second input may be performed, and cessation of the output of the prompt may occur.
