Devices, methods, and graphical user interfaces for initiating a payment action in a messaging session

An electronic device, while displaying messaging user interface that includes a conversation transcript of a messaging session between a user of the electronic device and at least one other user, a plurality of electronic stickers, and a message-input area, detects a drag gesture that starts while a focus selector is at a first location in the messaging user interface that corresponds to an electronic sticker in the plurality of electronic stickers, and in response, moves the electronic sticker in the first direction in accordance with movement of the drag gesture. Upon termination of the drag gesture while the focus selector is at a second location in the messaging user interface, if the second location is within the conversation transcript, the electronic device places the electronic sticker in the conversation transcript at a location based on the second location, and otherwise ceases to display the electronic sticker.

Fulfilling any actionable requirements before the user selects a particular autocomplete suggestion to complete the current user input

ActiveJP7625619B2Semantic analysisAlphabetical characters entering
Implementations described herein relate to providing selectable autofill suggestions corresponding to application actions that are at least partially fulfilled using server command data before a user selects a particular selectable autofill suggestion. Proactively fulfilling the command data in this manner reduces the wait time between a user selecting a suggestion and fulfilling a particular action. The partial input can first be processed to generate autofill suggestions, which can be communicated to a server device for further processing. The autofill suggestions can also be rendered for selection on a touch display interface, allowing a user to select one of the autofill suggestions. Once the command fulfillment data is provided by the server, the command fulfillment data is made available to the corresponding application such that the corresponding action can be at least partially fulfilled before user selection.

Devices, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Synchronized Viewing of Media Item in a Messaging Session

An electronic device displays a messaging user interface, including a conversation transcript of a messaging session between a user of the electronic device and another user, and a representation of a media item. The messaging session is configured to allow synchronized viewing of the media item by the user and the other user. In response to receiving a request for synchronized viewing, the electronic device initiates playback of content corresponding to the media item and displays the playback of the content at a fixed position relative to a portion of the messaging user interface. While displaying the content playback, the electronic device displays messages exchanged between the user and the other user below the displayed content playback. In response to detecting an end of the content corresponding to the media item, the electronic device ceases to display the content corresponding to the media item at the fixed position.

To provide a portable multifunction device with a more transparent and intuitive user interface for instant messaging that is easy to use, configure and / or apply.SOLUTION: One aspect of the present invention includes a graphic user interface (GUI) for a portable electronic device with a touch screen display. The GUI includes a set of messages that may be exchanged between a user of the device and another individual. The set of messages is displayed in chronological order. In response to detecting a scroll gesture comprising a substantial vertical migration of a contact of a user with the touch screen display, on the basis of the direction of the scroll gesture, the message display is scrolled. The detection of the scroll gesture is substantially independent of a horizontal migration of the contact of the user with the touch screen display.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
