Abstract: The embodiments herein describe a mode of applications on the portable electronic device that improves single-handed operation of the devices. For example, the embodiments herein describe an ergonomic mode of an application that displays the graphical user interface (GUI) of the application in a bottom area of the display screen of the electronic device to allow the user to more easily interact with objects. The embodiments herein also describe an ergonomic mode of a keyboard displayed on the display screen of the portable electronic device. During the ergonomic mode of the keyboard, the keyboard is shifted towards a vertical edge of the display screen to allow a user to more easily reach keys of the keyboard that were previously unreachable without the user switching to two handed operation of the device or repositioning the electronic device in the user's hand.

Abstract translation: 本文的实施例描述了便携式电子设备上的应用模式，其改进了设备的单手操作。 例如，这里的实施例描述了一种应用的人体工程学模式，其在电子设备的显示屏幕的底部区域中显示应用的图形用户界面（GUI），以允许用户更容易地与对象交互。 本文的实施例还描述了在便携式电子设备的显示屏上显示的键盘的人体工程学模式。 在键盘的人体工程学模式期间，键盘朝向显示屏幕的垂直边缘移动，以允许用户更容易地到达先前不可达的键盘的键，而不用用户切换到设备的双手操作或重新定位 电子设备在用户手中。
