An electronic device, method, and computer program product prevent inadvertent touch activation of a partially overlapped user interface (UI) element. The electronic device assigns, to a first image layer, a first UI including first UI element(s) that triggers a first response by program code when selected. The electronic device assigns, to a second image layer, a second UI including second UI element(s) that triggers a second response by the program code when selected. In response to determining that the first UI element(s) is displayed and selectable proximate to the second UI elements, the electronic device renders a display output including the first image layer and the second image layer utilizing a rendering scheme that prevents inadvertent selection of the first user interface element(s) during selection of the second user interface element(s). The electronic device presents the display output on the touch screen display.

Manage overlap of actionable user interfaces and system notifications

In aspects of user interface adjustments for ergonomic device grip, a mobile device displays a user interface that includes one or more selectable user interface elements. Based on sensor data collected by sensors of the mobile device, a user is determined to be holding the mobile device with an ergonomically incorrect grip pattern. In response to the ergonomically incorrect grip pattern of the user being determined, the one or more selectable user interface elements are moved to a region of the user interface that facilitates the user holding the mobile device with an ergonomically correct grip pattern.
