Systems and methods to reduce accidental touch actions on a touchscreen

Abstract

Systems and methods to reduce accidental touch actions on a touchscreen are disclosed herein. An example electronic device includes a body including a first body portion and a second body portion that is movable relative to the first body portion. The first and second body portions are movable between a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration. The electronic device includes a touchscreen carried by the body, a sensor carried by the body, machine readable instructions, and processor circuitry to be programmed by the machine readable instructions. The processor circuitry is to determine, based on sensor data from the sensor, the body is being folded or unfolded, detect a touch on the touchscreen, and prevent a touch action corresponding to the touch based on the determination the body is being folded or unfolded.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
