Abstract
A method, apparatus, computer program and user interface wherein the method includes: obtaining coordinate information from a first application where the coordinate information uniquely identifies an address as a location in a coordinate space; storing, using a second application, the coordinate information so that the coordinate information is associated with contact information indicative of the address; detecting user selection of a control element associated with the stored contact information; and in response to the detection of the user selection of the control element providing the coordinate information to the first application.
Claims24
A method comprising:
- obtaining coordinate information from a first application where the coordinate information uniquely identifies an address as a location in a coordinate space;
- storing, using a second application, the coordinate information so that the coordinate information is associated with contact information indicative of the address;
- detecting user selection of a control element associated with the stored contact information;
- and
- in response to the detection of the user selection of the control element providing the coordinate information to the first application.
An apparatus comprising:
- a display configured to display a location;
- a user input device configured to enable a user to select a control element;
- and
- a controller where the controller is configured to obtain coordinate information from a first application where the coordinate information uniquely identifies an address as a location in a coordinate space and the controller is also configured to use a second application to store the coordinate information so that the coordinate information is associated with contact information indicative of the address and the controller is also configured to detect actuation of the user input device to select a control element and provide, in response to the detection of the selection of the control element, the coordinate information to the first application.

A computer program comprising computer program instructions configured to control an apparatus, the program instructions providing, when loaded into a processor:
- means for obtaining coordinate information from a first application where the coordinate information uniquely identifies an address as a location in a coordinate space;
- means for storing, using a second application, the coordinate information so that the coordinate information is associated with contact information indicative of the address;
- means for detecting user selection of a control element associated with the stored contact information;
- and
- means for providing, in response to the detection of the user selection of the control element, the coordinate information to the first application.
A user interface comprising:
- a display configured to display contact information indicative of an address wherein coordinate information, which uniquely identifies an address as a location in a coordinate space, is associated with the contact information;
- a user input device configured to enable a user to select a control element associated with the contact information;
- wherein
- the user interface is configured such that in response to the detection of the user selection of the control element the coordinate information is provided to a first application to enable the location to be displayed on the display.
