Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, a computer program product, and a device for user control of device applications. The method includes detecting user input at a perimeter of the touch detection area and activating one or more determining sensors. The method includes causing seamless transition between the touch detection area and an activity domain excluding the touch detection area. The seamless transition includes causing the device to respond to user input detected by the one or more determining sensors when the detected user input transits out from the perimeter of the touch detection area. Additionally, the seamless transition includes causing the device to respond to user input from the touch detection area when the detected user input transits into the touch detection area.
