1. A computer implemented method of efficiently modifying application user interfaces comprising:
detecting sensory parameter adjustments to one or more applications;
counting the detected sensory parameter adjustments;
comparing the number of counted sensory parameter adjustments to a threshold number of sensory parameter adjustments;
prompting a user to select a parameter adjustment set from multiple sets of preconfigured sensory parameter adjustments, in response to the number of counted sensory parameter adjustments exceeding the threshold number;
receiving the selected parameter adjustment set; and
modifying at least one of the one or more applications using the selected parameter adjustment set to change a user interface of each of multiple applications, wherein the multiple sets of preconfigured sensory parameter adjustments are expressed in a canonical form, wherein each application translates adjustments in the selected parameter adjustment set to application specific adjustments using a canonical table of sensory parameter adjustments, and wherein each application is modified by the application specific adjustments in each application.
