Abstract
A method, system and apparatus are provided for navigating through a plurality of features in a user interface. A user may choose from a plurality of features made available by the user interface. The features are divided into to one or more sets. A feature may be selected by triggering a button or by using a touch screen. When a button is triggered, the associated feature is selected. The user may navigate through the features by triggering a ‘more’ button, which is associated with a ‘more’ feature. The user interface displays a first set of features. When the ‘more’ button is triggered, the user interface displays all the features and activates a second set of features. If the user does not trigger any button for a predefined time period, the first set is activated and is the only set that is displayed.
