Abstract

Methods and devices for selectively presenting a user interface for a phone application are provided. More particularly, a change in the display mode of a multiple screen device can be determined. More particularly, a presentation of a user interface for an in-process call of a phone application can be retained after the device is rotated or opened. However, the user interface may move from a first screen to a second screen (or vice versa) in response to receiving the device open signal. The user interface provides detail information about a phone call that is currently in-process.
