1. A method comprising:
- receiving a selection from a user of an application from a list of executable applications on a secondary display of an electronic device;
in response to recognition of physical movement of at least a portion of the electronic device, wherein recognition of the physical movement sets the device to a principal operational state, displaying on a primary display of the electronic device information relating to the selected application, where the displayed information on the primary display differs from the list of executable applications on the secondary display and comprises an interface for the selected application; and
performing in the electronic device a predetermined function relating to the user'"'"'s selection, whereby information relating to the predetermined function is displayed on the primary display of the electronic device.

Abstract
The invention relates to controlling of a user interface of an electronic device (100). On a secondary display (104) of the electronic device (100), a list of executable applications is displayed. A selection for selecting a specific application is received from the user. When the user mechanically sets the electronic device (100) from transport state to principal operational state, a primary display of the electronic device (100) is taken into use. In principal operational state, a predetermined function relating to the user'"'"'s selection is performed in the electronic device (100), whereby information relating to the procedure is displayed on the primary display of the electronic device (100).

13. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; memory storing a program of instructions; wherein the memory storing the program of instructions is configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to at least; configure a principal operational state for an electronic device, wherein a primary display is operational when the electronic device is in the principal operational state; configure a transport state for the electronic device, wherein a secondary display is operational at least when the electronic device is in transport state;
recognize inputs of the user entered at an input unit; and
display information relating to the selected application on the primary display of the electronic device in response to mechanical setting of the electronic device from transport state to principal operational state, where the displayed information on the primary display differs from the list of executable applications on the secondary display and comprises and interface for the selected application, and to perform a predetermined function relating to the user'"'"'s selection from the list of executable applications on the secondary display in the electronic device, whereby, controlled by the processing unit, information relating to the predetermined function is displayed on the primary display of the electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

30. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one memory including computer program code; and at least one processor configured to, with the at least one memory and the computer program code, cause the apparatus at least to configure a principal operational state for an electronic device, wherein a primary display is operational when the electronic device is in the principal operational state; configure a transport state for the electronic device, wherein a secondary display is operational at least when the electronic device is in transport state; recognize inputs of the user entered at an input unit; receive via the user input unit a selection from a user for selecting at least one application from a list of executable applications on the secondary display; display information relating to the selected application on the primary display in response to recognition of physical movement of at least a portion of the electronic device, wherein recognition of the physical movement sets the device to a principal operational state, where the displayed information on the primary display differs from the list of executable applications on the secondary display and comprises an interface for the selected application; and perform a predetermined function relating to the user'"'"'s selection from the list of executable applications on the secondary display, whereby information relating to the predetermined function is displayed on the primary display. - View Dependent Claims (31)
