Suggestion Of Alternate User Input Using Different User Interface
First Claim
1. A method for an electronic device having a display and a touch-sensitive input device, comprising:
- displaying a first keypad on the display;
obtaining sensed information from the touch-sensitive input device responsive to user input in association with the first keypad;
determining the user input to be for a second keypad different from the first keypad;
determining a corresponding input to the user input using the sensed information in association with the second keypad; and
displaying the corresponding input on the display.

Abstract
Method(s) and apparatus(es) relating generally to an electronic device having a display and a touch-sensitive input device are disclosed. In such a method, a first keypad is displayed on the display. Obtained is sensed information from the touch-sensitive input device responsive to user input in association with the first keypad. The user input is determined to be for a second keypad different from the first keypad. A corresponding input to the user input is determined using the sensed information in association with the second keypad. The corresponding input is displayed on the display.

14. A method for a programmed electronic device having a display and a touch-sensitive input device, comprising:
installing a keypad app in the programmed electronic device, the keypad app comprising instructions to configure the programmed electronic device for; obtaining sensed information for a user input provided via the touch-sensitive input device in association with first keys of a first keypad on the display; determining the user input to be for a second keypad different from the first keypad; associating the sensed information with second keys of the second keypad to obtain a representation of the user input; referencing the representation against a dictionary associated with the second keypad; and displaying the representation on the display as a corresponding input to the user input for user selection. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
