Patent ID: 8751972

Claim:
A method comprising: storing, by the computing device and in a data repository of the computing device, at least a portion of an aggregated group of gesture-shortcut associations; receiving, by a computing device, data representative of a gesture detected by a presence-sensitive screen of the computing device; identifying, by the computing device and based at least in part on the data representative of the gesture, a first candidate shortcut by at least accessing the portion of the aggregated group of gesture-shortcut associations stored in the data repository; responsive to sending, by the computing device, the data representative of the gesture to a server, receiving, by the computing device and from the server, an indication of a second candidate shortcut associated with the gesture; selecting one of the first candidate shortcut and the second candidate shortcut as a shortcut associated with the gesture, wherein the shortcut associated with the gesture corresponds to an action to be performed by the computing device; and outputting, by the computing device, for display, data representative of the shortcut associated with the gesture.
