Method and apparatus for increasing the functionality of a user device in a locked state
First Claim
1. A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following:
- a presentation of a first user interface associated with an, at least in part, locked state of a device;
a rendering of at least a portion of a second user interface associated with the first user interface, wherein the second user interface is associated with one or more applications, one or more services, or a combination thereof; and
a processing of one or more interactions with the first user interface, the at least a portion of the second user interface, or a combination thereof to cause, at least in part, a change of the device to an, at least in part, unlocked state.

Abstract
An approach is provided for increasing the functionality of a user device when the device is in an, at least in part, locked state. The approach involves presentation of a first user interface and rendering of at least a portion of a second user interface associated with the first user interface while the user device is in an, at least in part, locked state wherein the second user interface is associated with one or more applications and/or one or more services. Further, one or more interactions with the first user interface and/or with the at least a portion of the second user interface are detected and processed for at least changing the device to an, at least in part, unlocked state.

12. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following, cause, at least in part, a presentation of a first user interface associated with an, at least in part, locked state of a device; cause, at least in part, a rendering of at least a portion of a second user interface associated with the first user interface, wherein the second user interface is associated with one or more applications, one or more services, or a combination thereof; and process and/or facilitate a processing of one or more interactions with the first user interface, the at least a portion of the second user interface, or a combination thereof to cause, at least in part, a change of the device to an, at least in part, unlocked state. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
