To enhance the interaction of user interface in a flexible display,
the auto-adjusting icon interface is proposed to relocate
icons or widgets on the bended area of the screen when the
flexible display is folded by the user. In this section, we present
our flow for implementing the auto-adjusting icon interface in
flexible displays with the Android system. In the proposed
interface, the bended area on the flexible display would be
detected when the user interface is unlocked and the detected
value reported by the bending sensor is over the threshold.
After a bending operation is detected, the proposed interface
changes and shrinks the icon layout, which not only relocates
icons/objects in the bended area, but also resizes icons/objects
in the remaining readable/available area.
