Abstract

Initiating a functionality of an electronic device using the device cover and/or other device inputs is described herein. In some implementations, a sequence of operations may be stored on the device to initiate a specific functionality of the device. Each operation in the sequence may correspond to a manipulation of a position of a device cover or an input from a device input component. Once the device determines that two or more received operations complete the stored sequence, the specific functionality of the device may be initiated.
