Abstract
Aspects for resolving failed user-interface functionality are described. One or more processors are configured for detecting a first user input having a first input magnitude at user-selectable elements displayed on a local device user-interface, determining that the local device user-interface is not responsive to the first user input; detecting a second user input having a second input magnitude that is greater than the first input magnitude at the user-selectable elements, wherein the first user input and the second user input are by the user; determining that the local device user-interface is not responsive to the second user input; transmitting first data corresponding to a user-interface offload prompt to a mobile device associated with the user, wherein the mobile device is within a predetermined proximity of the local device user-interface; and receiving second data corresponding to a plurality of mobile device user inputs from the mobile device.
