release the locked state and change from said locked state to the unlocked state, wherein the controller is configured to perform a continuous change from the locked state to the unlocked state without stopping said change,
wherein
the touch screen display is configured to display an object arranged on the lock screen, the object being associated with an application,
the multi-touch gesture is a gesture to move at least one of the first touch and the second touch away from the other and further away from a position where the object is arranged is detected, and
when the multi-touch gesture is detected, the controller is configured to release the locked state to execute the application associated with the object.
5. The device according to claim 4 , wherein
the multi-touch gesture is a gesture in which at least one of (i) a distance between the first touch and the position where the object is arranged and (ii) a distance between the second touch and the position where the object is arranged is changed to a distance longer than a threshold.
6. The device according to claim 4 , wherein
the controller is configured to, during said multi-touch gesture,
in response to a first direction in which at least one of the first touch and the second touch moves with respect to the object and further away from the other of the first touch and the second touch,
execute a first function of the application associated with the object, and
in response to a second direction in which at least one of the first touch and the second touch moves with respect to the object and further away from the other of the first touch and the second touch,
execute a second function of the application associated with the object,
the first direction is different from the second direction, and
the first function is different from the second function.
7. A method of controlling a device with a touch screen display, the method comprising:
displaying, on the touch screen display,
a lock screen in a locked state, and
another screen in an unlocked state;
detecting a multi-touch gesture, which comprises a first touch and a second touch on the touch screen display and changes a distance between the first touch and the second touch, during display of the lock screen in the locked state; and
upon the detecting the multi-touch gesture, releasing the locked state and performing a continuous change from said locked state to the unlocked state without stopping said change,
wherein
the touch screen display displays an object arranged on the lock screen, the object being associated with an application,
the multi-touch gesture is a gesture to move at least one of the first touch and the second touch closer to a position where the object is arranged is detected, and
when the multi-touch gesture is detected, said releasing the locked state is performed and the application associated with the object is executed.
8. A non-transitory storage medium that stores a program for causing, when executed by a device with a touch screen display, the device to execute:
displaying, on the touch screen display,
a lock screen in a locked state, and
another screen in an unlocked state;
detecting a multi-touch gesture, which comprises a first touch and a second touch on the touch screen display and changes a distance between the first touch and the second touch, during display of the lock screen in the locked state; and
upon the detecting the multi-touch gesture, releasing the locked state and performing a continuous change from said locked state to the unlocked state without stopping said change,
wherein
the touch screen display displays an object arranged on the lock screen, the object being associated with an application,
the multi-touch gesture is a gesture to move at least one of the first touch and the second touch closer to a position where the object is arranged is detected, and
when the multi-touch gesture is detected, said releasing the locked state is performed and the application associated with the object is executed.
9. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to release the locked state in response to the detected multi-touch gesture and without further user operation on the touch screen display.
10. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the detected multi-touch gesture alone is sufficient to cause said releasing the locked state.
11. The device according to claim 1 , wherein
the device has no other state during the continuous change between
the locked state in which gestures other than the multi-touch gesture and a predetermined gesture are not accepted through the touch screen display, and
the unlocked state in which another screen is displayed.
