Abstract
A method and system for triggering hand-off of an incoming call event from a default first telephony application to a second telephony application on a device are disclosed, comprising receiving an incoming call event addressed to the device, causing a notification of the incoming call event using the default first telephony application on the device, during the notification of the incoming call event, and without answering the incoming call event using the default first telephony application, receiving a navigation input on a user interface of the device to navigate to the second telephony application on the device, and, responsive to receiving the input to navigate to the second telephony application on the device, causing the second telephony application to be displayed on the device, and accepting the incoming call event using the second telephony application, creating a telephony connection corresponding to the incoming call event.
