Abstract
In a general aspect, a computer-implemented method can include displaying a first user interface window on a touchscreen display of a computing device, where first user interface window includes a plurality of application icons associated with respective applications available for execution by the computing device. The computer-implemented method can further include detecting a touch input on the touchscreen display at a location associated with a first application icon from the plurality of application icons. The computer-implemented method can also include, in response to the touch input, displaying concurrently on the touchscreen display of the computing device a first portion of the first user interface window and a second portion of a second user interface window, wherein the second user interface window displays a user interface of the application associated with the first application icon.
