Abstract

A computer-implemented method is provided for executing an action on an electronic device. The method includes outputting, at a touch screen of the mobile device, a lock screen view configured to prevent unauthorized or inadvertent access to the electronic device. The access is conditioned to a predefined shape of a user touch input. The method further includes, while the lock screen view is displayed at the touch screen, detecting, at the touch screen, a touch input having a first shape, verifying if the first shape has the predefined shape, in response to detecting that the touch input has the predefined shape, executing, by the electronic device, a particular action determined, at least in part on the predefined shape, if detecting a further touch input at least prior or subsequent the predefined shape.
