1. A computer-implemented method for interacting with an electronic device using a single-point gesture, the method comprising: selecting a point in an image, the image being provided by a display associated with the electronic device; continuously moving the selected point within the display to generate a trajectory; while moving the selected point: monitoring a bending of the trajectory between a first point of the trajectory and a second point of the trajectory, wherein the first point corresponds to a current time and the second point corresponds to a previous time; and in response to the monitoring, performing, based at least on the bending of the trajectory, a designated action, wherein the designated action is selected based on a measure of the bending; and while continuously moving the selected point within the display: determining that the selected point is within a designated region of the display; and in response to the determination, performing, based at least on a location of the selected point and direction of the moving the selected point, a further designated action.
