Abstract

An electronic device and a method for remote control of vehicle features are provided. The electronic device receives a first user input indicative of a selection of a first vehicle from a set of vehicles associated with a user. The electronic device further receives, via a haptic device associated with the electronic device, a second user input including a tactile gesture. The second user input is indicative of an instruction to remotely control a first set of features on the selected first vehicle. The tactile gesture includes a first swipe input along a first direction associated with the haptic device and further includes a second swipe input along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The electronic device further controls the first set of features on the selected first vehicle based on the received second user input.
