Embodiment Construction

[0082] The methods, devices, and GUIs described herein respond to input on a fingerprint sensor instead of or in addition to input on a touch-sensitive surface or other input device. In some implementations, a touch-sensitive surface with a spatial resolution high enough to detect fingerprint features formed by individual fingerprint ridges is used as a fingerprint sensor. When a fingerprint sensor is used without a separate touch-sensitive surface, the fingerprint sensor can be used as a replacement for many of the functions of a touch-sensitive surface with a much smaller form factor because the fingerprint sensor can detect contact over the fingerprint sensor even if the fingerprint has an area as large as or larger than the area of ​​the fingerprint sensor. When a fingerprint sensor is used in addition to a stand-alone touch surface, the fingerprint sensor can enhance a touch-sensitive surface by: providing accurate detection of twisting motion of a contact, identifying th...

Abstract

The invention discloses an electronic device with a display and a fingerprint sensor which displays a fingerprint enrollment interface and detects, on the fingerprint sensor, a plurality of finger gestures performed with a finger. The device collects fingerprint information from the plurality of finger gestures performed with the finger. After collecting the fingerprint information, the device determines whether the collected fingerprint information is sufficient to enroll a fingerprint of the finger. When the collected fingerprint information for the finger is sufficient to enroll the fingerprint of the finger, the device enrolls the fingerprint of the finger with the device. When the collected fingerprint information for the finger is not sufficient to enroll the fingerprint of the finger, the device displays a message in the fingerprint enrollment interface prompting a user to perform one or more additional finger gestures on the fingerprint sensor with the finger.
