Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and computer program product for displaying different items to be processed according to different areas on a display in a locked state

An information processing method comprising:

• detecting, by a touch sensor, an interaction position of a manipulation body on a display screen;
• and
• causing, by a controller, a display of display items in response to a first input manipulation of the manipulation body on the display screen when the display screen is in a locked state;
• and
• in response to a second input manipulation of the manipulation body on the display screen in the locked state, executing a process corresponding to one of the display items selected by the second input manipulation after the first input manipulation;
• wherein the display items are of a first type when a position of the first input manipulation is in a first area of the display screen in the locked state;
• and
• wherein the display items are of a second type when a position of the first input manipulation is in a second area of the display screen in the locked state.

A non-transitory computer readable medium including executable instructions, which when executed by processing circuitry cause the processing circuitry to execute an information processing method, the method comprising:

• detecting an interaction position of a manipulation body on a display screen;
• and
• causing a display of display items in response to a first input manipulation of the manipulation body on the display screen when the display screen is in a locked state;
• and
• in response to a second input manipulation of the manipulation body on the display screen in the locked state, executing a process corresponding to one of the display items selected by the second input manipulation after the first input manipulation;
• wherein the display items are of a first type when a position of the first input manipulation is in a first area of the display screen in the locked state;
• and
• wherein the display items are of a second type when a position of the first input manipulation is in a second area of the display screen in the locked state.
