Abstract
An electronic device includes a touch screen. When the electronic device wakes up and works in a locked state, a notification interface including a predetermined unlocking area is displayed on the touch screen. A user pattern formed by at least two fingers of a user located within the predetermined unlocking area is detected. The electronic device is unlocked if the user pattern matches a predetermined unlocking pattern.
