Abstract
It is presented a method including presenting an alert on a display; detecting a user input associated with said alert, said user input having a momentum; and deferring said alert to be presented again at a new alert time, said new alert time being calculated as a time in the future using said user input momentum. A corresponding device, computer program product and user interface are also presented.
Claims21
A method comprising:
- providing an alert for a touch-sensitive display;
- detecting a user input on the display in a position associated with said alert,
- detecting a movement of the user input and the end of the user input;
- and
- deferring said alert to be presented again at a new alert time, said new alert time being calculated as a time in the future using said user input movement.
An apparatus comprising:
- a display;
- and
- a controller,
- wherein said controller is arranged to present an alert on a touch-sensitive display;
- said controller is further arranged to detect a user input on the display in a position associated with said alert, detect the movement of the user input and the end of the user input;
- and
- said controller is further arranged to, as a result of detecting said user input, defer said alert to be presented again at a new alert in time, said new alert time being calculated as a time in the future using said user input movement.
An apparatus comprising:
- means for providing an alert for a touch-sensitive display;
- means for detecting a user input on the display in a position associated with said alert,
- means for detecting the movement of the and the end of the user input;
- and
- means for deferring said alert to be presented again at a new alert time, said new alert time being calculated as a time in the future using said user input movement.
A non-transitory computer program product comprising software instructions stored on a computer readable medium that, when executed in a controller of a mobile communication apparatus, performs a process comprising:
- providing an alert for a touch-sensitive display;
- detecting a user input on the display in a position associated with said alert, detecting the movement of the user input and the end of the user input;
- and
- deferring said alert to be presented again at a new alert time, said new alert time being calculated as a time in the future using said user input movement.
A user interface comprising:
- a display;
- wherein said user interface is arranged to present an alert on a touch-sensitive display;
- said user interface is further arranged to detect a user input on the display in a position associated with said alert, detecting the movement of the user input and the end of the user input;
- and
- said user interface is further arranged to, as a result of detecting said user input, defer said alert to be presented again at a new alert in time, said new alert time being calculated as a time in the future using said user input movement.
