METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING QUICK ACCESS TO DEVICE FUNCTIONALITY
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving an indication of a swipe gesture being performed from a first predefined portion of a display to a second predefined portion of a display;
classifying the swipe gesture as a trigger gesture based on at least one of an insertion of a motion delay of at least a threshold period of time in connection with the swipe gesture and a relationship of a length of the swipe gesture relative to a threshold length; and
causing, in response to classifying the trigger gesture, a display of a predefined set of functional elements that cause execution of a corresponding function when a respective one of the predefined set of functional elements is selected.

Abstract
A method for providing quick access to device functionality responsive to a touch gesture may include receiving an indication of a swipe gesture being performed from a first predefined portion of a display to a second predefined portion of a touch screen display, classifying the swipe gesture as a trigger gesture based on insertion of a motion delay of at least a threshold period of time in connection with the swipe gesture, and causing, in response to classifying the trigger gesture, a display of a predefined set of functional elements that cause execution of a corresponding function when a respective one of the predefined set of functional elements is selected. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.
