Abstract

In this paper we present the user interface design and evaluation of a tool for customizing mobile phone applications with context-aware features. The tool enables the user to program a set of context-action rules, defining the behavior of the device when a selected context is recognized and/or some other user-defined conditions are met. The tool user interface design is described starting from an early paper prototype and its evaluation, leading to a functional software implementation in a mobile phone. Finally, the usability evaluation of the functional prototype, and other relevant findings from the user test, are presented.
