Abstract

User Interfaces of Applications installed and executed on Communications Devices or Mobile Computing Devices may consist of several text, graphics, sound, voice, gesture, etc. elements, and are implemented in software components separate from functional components of the Applications.

The Applications may be distributed and installed to the Communications Devices or Mobile Computing Devices with a default set of User Interfaces. Different users of Communications Devices or Mobile Computing Devices may have different customization or personalization desires or requests for certain Applications they use on their Communications Devices or Mobile Computing Devices.

Claims

1. A method of dynamically changing the Language, Customization and/or Personalization of the User Interface of Application running on a Communications Devices or Mobile Computing Devices, comprising:

setting a preference list of languages or customizations in which the user wishes to make practice,

dynamically switching the User Interface to the next language or customization in the preference list, initiated by a timeout or by the user by a gesture, a key-combination, a pointing device or screen action,

dynamically accessing the User Interface sets stored locally or remote.

2. A system of dynamically changing the Language, Customization and/or Personalization of the User Interface of Application running on a Communications Devices or Mobile Computing Devices, preferably for performing the method of claim 1, comprising:

means for setting a preference list of languages or customizations in which the user wishes to make practice,

means for dynamically switching the User Interface to the next language or customization in the preference list, initiated by a timeout or by the user by a gesture, a key-combination, a pointing device or a screen action,

means for dynamically accessing the User Interface sets stored locally or remote.

3. A set of computer program products within:

a Computer usable medium, a Communications Device usable medium or a Mobile Computing Device usable medium, dynamically changing the Language, Customization and/or Personalization of the User Interface of Application running on a Communications Devices or Mobile Computing Devices, preferably for performing the method of claim 1, comprising;

instructions for setting preference a list of languages or customizations in which the user wishes to make practice,

instructions for dynamically switching the User Interface to the next language or customization in the preference list, initiated by a timeout or by the user by a gesture, a key-combination, a pointing device or a screen action,

instructions for dynamically accessing the User Interface sets stored locally or remote.
