DEVELOPMENT MODE ACTIVATION FOR A MOBILE DEVICE
First Claim
1. A computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to activate a development mode of a software application that is executed on a mobile device, the instructions comprising:
- detecting an acceleration of the mobile device;
determining that the acceleration exceeds a threshold;
displaying a user interface within the mobile device in response to determining that the acceleration exceeds the threshold, wherein the user interface activates the development mode in response to a user interaction with the user interface, and wherein the development mode provides access to one or more features of the software application that are not available during conventional execution of the software application;
receiving the user interaction within the user interface; and
activating the development mode in response to the user interaction with the user interface.

Abstract
A development mode system that activates a development mode of a software application that is executed on a mobile device is provided. The development mode system detects an acceleration of the mobile device. The development mode system further determines that the acceleration exceeds a threshold. The development mode system further displays a user interface within the mobile device in response to determining that the acceleration exceeds the threshold, where the user interface activates the development mode in response to a user interaction with the user interface, and where the development mode provides access to one or more features of the software application that are not available during conventional execution of the software application. The development mode system further receives the user interaction within the user interface. The development mode system further activates the development mode in response to the user interaction with the user interface.

16. A development mode system for a mobile device, the development mode system comprising:
-
a memory configured to store a development mode module; a processor configured to execute the development mode module stored on the memory; and an accelerometer configured to detect the acceleration of the mobile device over a duration; wherein, when executing the development mode module, the processor is further configured to determine that the acceleration exceeds a threshold; wherein, when executing the development mode module, the processor is further configured to display a user interface within the mobile device in response to determining that the acceleration exceeds the threshold, wherein the user interface activates the development mode in response to a user interaction with the user interface, and wherein the development mode provides access to one or more features of the software application that are not available during conventional execution of the software application; wherein, when executing the development mode module, the processor is further configured to receive the user interaction within the user interface; and wherein, when executing the development mode module, the processor is further configured to activate the development mode in response to the user interaction with the user interface. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
