Automatic activation of a service

摘要

A triggering mechanism may provide a user of a device the ability to send a multimedia message and/or capture multimedia information via the device without the user unlocking the device, without the user opening a messaging application and/or without the user opening an information capturing application on the device. In an example configuration, an emergency call button, or the like, on the device may provide a user several options for sending a message and/or capturing information. Upon selecting one or more of the options, applications for effectuating the selected option(s) may be automatically initiated without user intervention.
