A method includes presenting a UI of a first application on a screen of a computing device and detecting a user input. For example, the detected user input may be an input tracing a continuous path on the screen of the computing device, and the path may include a first gesture extending from a first location to a second location on the screen followed by a second gesture extending from the second location to a third location on the screen. In response to detecting the first gesture, the computing device may display an interactive menu of the first application, the interactive menu comprising a plurality of menu options. In response to the detecting the second gesture, the computing device may identify one of the menu options. In response to detecting user input indicating completion of the second gesture, the computing device may determine the selection of the identified menu option.
