Abstract
An electronic device and a method of dynamically adapting a sensitivity of at least one user interface component on the electronic device. A device context corresponding to the electronic device can be identified and processed in real time to identify a potential user intent and to determine a probability that the potential user intent corresponds to an actual user intent. A user input sensitivity parameter can be selected based on the potential user intent and the determined probability. The sensitivity of the at least one user interface component can be adapted to correspond to the user input sensitivity parameter.
