Figure 17 is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying a clock user interface in a color based on a selected color according to some embodiments. 16A to 16I The user interface in the diagram is used to illustrate the process described below, including Figure 17 in the process.

[0083] Figures 18A to 18Q An example clock user interface including animated lines is illustrated according to some embodiments. Figure 19 is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying a clock user interface including an animated line according to some embodiments. Figures 18A to 18Q The user interface in the diagram is used to illustrate the process described below, including Figure 19 in the process.

[0084] The processes described below enhance the operability of the device and make the user-device interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user provide appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating / interacting with the device) through various techniques, including providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional display controls, performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met, and / or additional techniques. These techniques also reduce power usage and extend the battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the device more quickly and efficiently.

[0085] In addition, in the method described herein where one or more steps depend on having met one or more conditions, it should be understood that the method can be repeated in multiple repetitions so that in the process of repetition, all conditions of the steps in the method of determining the method have been met in different repetitions of the method. For example, if the method needs to perform the first step (if the condition is met), and perform the second step (if the condition is not met), then those of ordinary skill will know that the steps stated are repeated until both the condition is met and the condition is not met (in no particular order). Therefore, the method described as having one or more steps depending on having met one or more conditions can be rewritten as a method of repeating until each condition described in the method is met. However, this does not require a system or computer-readable medium to declare that the system or computer-readable medium includes instructions for performing a contingent operation based on the satisfaction of the corresponding one or more conditions, and is therefore able to determine whether a possible situation has been met without explicitly repeating the steps of the method until all conditions of the steps in the method of determining the method have been met. Those of ordinary skill in the art will also understand that, similar to the method with a contingent step, a system or computer-readable storage medium can repeat the steps of the method as needed multiple times to ensure that all contingent steps have been performed.

[0086] Although the following description uses the terms "first," "second," etc. to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by the terms. In some embodiments, these terms are used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first touch can be named a second touch and similarly, a second touch can be named a first touch without departing from the scope of the various described embodiments. In some embodiments, the first touch and the second touch are two separate references to the same touch. In some embodiments, both the first touch and the second touch are touches, but they are not the same touch.

[0087] The terms used in the description of the various described embodiments herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to be limiting. As used in the description of the various described embodiments and in the appended claims, the singular forms "a" and "the" are intended to also include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the terms "and / or" used herein refer to and encompass any and all possible combinations of one or more items in the associated listed items. It will also be understood that the terms "comprises" and / or "comprising" when used in this specification specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements and / or parts, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, parts and / or their groupings.

[0088] The term "if" is optionally interpreted to mean "when," "upon," or "in response to determining," or "in response to detecting," depending on the context. Similarly, the phrases "if it is determined that," or "if [stated condition or event] is detected" are optionally interpreted to mean "upon determining," or "in response to determining," or "upon detecting [stated condition or event]," or "in response to detecting [stated condition or event]," depending on the context.

[0089] Embodiments of electronic devices, user interfaces for such devices, and associated processes for using such devices are described herein. In some embodiments, the device is a portable communication device, such as a mobile phone, that also includes other functions, such as a PDA and / or music player functions. Exemplary embodiments of portable multifunction devices include, but are not limited to, the Apple Watch from Apple Inc. (Cupertino, California). Devices, iPod Equipment and Device. Optionally, other portable electronic devices are used, such as laptops or tablet computers with touch-sensitive surfaces (e.g., touch screen displays and / or touchpads). It should also be understood that in some embodiments, the device is not a portable communication device, but a desktop computer with a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch screen displays and / or touchpads). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system that communicates with the display generation component (e.g., via wireless communication, via wired communication). The display generation component is configured to provide visual output, such as display via a CRT display, display via an LED display, or display via image projection. In some embodiments, the display generation component is integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the display generation component is separated from the computer system. As used herein, "display" content includes transmitting data (e.g., image data or video data) to an integrated or external display generation component via a wired or wireless connection to visually generate content to display content (e.g., video data rendered or decoded by display controller 156).

[0090] In the following discussion, an electronic device including a display and a touch-sensitive surface is described. However, it should be understood that the electronic device optionally includes one or more other physical user interface devices, such as a physical keyboard, mouse, and / or joystick.

[0091] The device typically supports a variety of applications, such as one or more of the following: a drawing application, a rendering application, a word processing application, a website creation application, a disk editing application, a spreadsheet application, a gaming application, a telephony application, a video conferencing application, an email application, an instant messaging application, a fitness support application, a photo management application, a digital camera application, a digital video camera application, a web browsing application, a digital music player application, and / or a digital video player application.

[0092] Various applications executed on the device optionally use at least one common physical user interface device, such as a touch-sensitive surface. One or more functions of the touch-sensitive surface and corresponding information displayed on the device are optionally adjusted and / or varied for different applications and / or adjusted and / or varied within the respective applications. In this way, the common physical architecture of the device (such as the touch-sensitive surface) optionally supports various applications with a user interface that is intuitive and clear to the user.

[0093] Attention is now turned to embodiments of portable devices having touch-sensitive displays. Figure 1Ais a block diagram illustrating a portable multifunction device 100 with a touch-sensitive display system 112 according to some embodiments. Touch-sensitive display 112 is sometimes referred to as a "touch screen" for convenience, and is sometimes referred to as or referred to as a "touch-sensitive display system." Device 100 includes memory 102 (which optionally includes one or more computer-readable storage media), a memory controller 122, one or more processing units (CPUs) 120, a peripheral device interface 118, RF circuitry 108, audio circuitry 110, a speaker 111, a microphone 113, an input / output (I / O) subsystem 106, other input control devices 116, and external ports 124. Device 100 optionally includes one or more optical sensors 164. Device 100 optionally includes one or more contact force sensors 165 for detecting the intensity of contacts on device 100 (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, such as touch-sensitive display system 112 of device 100). Device 100 optionally includes one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile output on device 100 (e.g., generating tactile output on a touch-sensitive surface such as touch-sensitive display system 112 of device 100 or touch pad 355 of device 300). These components optionally communicate via one or more communication buses or signal lines 103.

[0094] As used in this specification and claims, the term "intensity" of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface refers to the force or pressure (force per unit area) of a contact (e.g., a finger contact) on the touch-sensitive surface, or to a surrogate (surrogate) for the force or pressure of a contact on the touch-sensitive surface. The intensity of a contact has a range of values ​​that includes at least four different values ​​and more typically includes hundreds of different values ​​(e.g., at least 256). The intensity of a contact is optionally determined (or measured) using various methods and various sensors or combinations of sensors. For example, one or more force sensors below or adjacent to the touch-sensitive surface are optionally used to measure the force at different points on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, the force measurements from multiple force sensors are combined (e.g., weighted averaged) to determine an estimated contact force. Similarly, the pressure-sensitive tip of a stylus is optionally used to determine the pressure of the stylus on the touch-sensitive surface. Alternatively, the size of the contact area detected on the touch-sensitive surface and / or its change, the capacitance of the touch-sensitive surface near the contact and / or its change, and / or the resistance of the touch-sensitive surface near the contact and / or its change are optionally used as a surrogate for the force or pressure of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, the surrogate measurement of the contact force or pressure is used directly to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is described in units corresponding to the surrogate measurement). In some embodiments, the surrogate measurement of the contact force or pressure is converted into an estimated force or pressure, and the estimated force or pressure is used to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is a pressure threshold measured in units of pressure). Using the intensity of the contact as an attribute of the user input allows the user to access additional device functionality that would otherwise be inaccessible to the user on a smaller device with limited real estate, which is used to display an indication (e.g., on a touch-sensitive display) and / or receive user input (e.g., via a touch-sensitive display, touch-sensitive surface, or physical / mechanical controls, such as knobs or buttons).

[0095] As used in this specification and claims, the term "tactile output" refers to a physical displacement of a device relative to a previous position of the device, a physical displacement of a component of a device (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface) relative to another component of the device (e.g., a housing), or a displacement of a component relative to the center of mass of the device that will be detected by a user using the user's sense of touch. For example, when a device or a component of the device is in contact with a surface that is touch-sensitive to a user (e.g., a finger, palm, or other part of the user's hand), the tactile output generated by the physical displacement will be interpreted by the user as a tactile sensation that corresponds to a perceived change in a physical property of the device or component of the device. For example, movement of a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display or trackpad) is optionally interpreted by the user as a "press click" or "release click" on a physical actuation button. In some cases, the user will feel a tactile sensation, such as a "press click" or "release click," even when the physical actuation button associated with the touch-sensitive surface that was physically pressed (e.g., displaced) by the user's movement does not move. As another example, even when the smoothness of the touch-sensitive surface does not change, movement of the touch-sensitive surface may optionally be interpreted or sensed by the user as "roughness" of the touch-sensitive surface. While such a user's interpretation of touch will be limited by the user's individualized sensory perceptions, many sensory perceptions of touch are common to most users. Thus, when a tactile output is described as corresponding to a particular sensory perception of a user (e.g., "press click," "release click," "roughness"), unless otherwise stated, the generated tactile output corresponds to a physical displacement of the device or a component thereof that would generate that sensory perception for a typical (or average) user.

[0096] It should be understood that device 100 is merely one example of a portable multifunction device and that device 100 optionally has more or fewer components than shown, optionally combines two or more components, or optionally has a different configuration or arrangement of the components. Figure 1A The various components shown are implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of both, including one or more signal processing and / or application specific integrated circuits.

[0097] Memory 102 optionally includes high-speed random access memory and optionally includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid-state memory devices. Memory controller 122 optionally controls access to memory 102 by other components of device 100.

[0098] The peripheral device interface 118 can be used to couple the input peripheral devices and output peripheral devices of the device to the CPU 120 and the memory 102. The one or more processors 120 run or execute various software programs (such as computer programs (e.g., including instructions)) and / or instruction sets stored in the memory 102 to perform various functions of the device 100 and process data. In some embodiments, the peripheral device interface 118, the CPU 120, and the memory controller 122 are optionally implemented on a single chip such as the chip 104. In some other embodiments, they are optionally implemented on separate chips.

[0099] RF (radio frequency) circuitry 108 receives and transmits RF signals, also known as electromagnetic signals.

[0100] The audio circuit 110, speaker 111, and microphone 113 provide an audio interface between the user and the device 100. The audio circuit 110 receives audio data from the peripheral device interface 118, converts the audio data into electrical signals, and transmits the electrical signals to the speaker 111. The speaker 111 converts the electrical signals into sound waves audible to humans. The audio circuit 110 also receives electrical signals converted from sound waves by the microphone 113. The audio circuit 110 converts the electrical signals into audio data and transmits the audio data to the peripheral device interface 118 for processing. The audio data is optionally retrieved from and / or transmitted to the memory 102 and / or the RF circuit 108 by the peripheral device interface 118. In some embodiments, the audio circuit 110 also includes a headset jack (e.g., Figure 2 The headset jack provides an interface between the audio circuit 110 and a removable audio input / output peripheral device, such as an output-only headset or a headset with both output (e.g., a single or dual-ear headset) and input (e.g., a microphone).

[0104] The touch screen 112 has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor, or set of sensors that accepts input from the user based on tactile and / or haptic contact. The touch screen 112 and display controller 156 (together with any associated modules and / or instruction sets in memory 102) detect contact on the touch screen 112 (and any movement or interruption of that contact) and convert the detected contact into interaction with a user interface object (e.g., one or more soft keys, icons, web pages, or images) displayed on the touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, the point of contact between the touch screen 112 and the user corresponds to the user's finger.

[0105] The touch screen 112 optionally uses LCD (liquid crystal display) technology, LPD (light emitting polymer display) technology, or LED (light emitting diode) technology, although other display technologies are used in other embodiments. The touch screen 112 and display controller 156 optionally use any of a variety of touch sensing technologies now known or later developed, including but not limited to capacitive, resistive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave technologies, as well as other proximity sensor arrays or other elements for determining one or more points of contact with the touch screen 112 to detect contact and any movement or interruption thereof.

[0108] The touch screen 112 optionally has a video resolution exceeding 100 dpi. In some embodiments, the touch screen has a video resolution of about 160 dpi. The user optionally uses any suitable object or appendage, such as a stylus, a finger, or the like, to contact the touch screen 112. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work primarily through finger-based contacts and gestures, which may not be as precise as stylus-based input due to the larger contact area of ​​a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device converts rough finger-based input into precise pointer / cursor positioning or commands for performing the actions desired by the user.

[0109] In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, the device 100 optionally includes a touchpad for activating or deactivating specific functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of ​​the device that, unlike the touch screen, does not display visual output. The touchpad is optionally a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the touch screen 112 or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touch screen.

[0110] Device 100 also includes a power system 162 for powering the various components. Power system 162 optionally includes a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., batteries, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, power fault detection circuitry, a power converter or inverter, a power status indicator (e.g., a light emitting diode (LED)), and any other components associated with the generation, management, and distribution of power in a portable device.

[0111] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more optical sensors 164 . Figure 1AAn optical sensor is shown coupled to the optical sensor controller 158 in the I / O subsystem 106. The optical sensor 164 optionally includes a charge-coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. The optical sensor 164 receives light from the environment projected through one or more lenses and converts the light into data representing an image. In conjunction with the imaging module 143 (also called a camera module), the optical sensor 164 optionally captures still images or video. In some embodiments, the optical sensor is located on the rear of the device 100, facing away from the touchscreen display 112 on the front of the device, enabling the touchscreen display to be used as a viewfinder for still and / or video image acquisition. In some embodiments, the optical sensor is located on the front of the device, allowing the user to optionally capture an image of the user for video conferencing while viewing other video conference participants on the touchscreen display. In some embodiments, the positioning of the optical sensor 164 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and sensor in the device housing), allowing a single optical sensor 164 to be used with the touchscreen display for both video conferencing and still and / or video image acquisition.

[0112] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more depth camera sensors 175 . Figure 1A A depth camera sensor is shown coupled to a depth camera controller 169 in the I / O subsystem 106. The depth camera sensor 175 receives data from the environment to create a three-dimensional model of objects (e.g., faces) within the scene from a viewpoint (e.g., the depth camera sensor). In some embodiments, in conjunction with the imaging module 143 (also referred to as a camera module), the depth camera sensor 175 is optionally used to determine depth maps for different portions of an image captured by the imaging module 143. In some embodiments, the depth camera sensor is located on the front of the device 100, enabling the user to optionally capture an image of the user with depth information for video conferencing while viewing other video conference participants on the touchscreen display, and to capture selfies with depth map data. In some embodiments, the depth camera sensor 175 is located on the rear of the device, or on both the rear and front of the device 100. In some embodiments, the positioning of the depth camera sensor 175 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and sensor in the device housing), enabling the depth camera sensor 175 to be used in conjunction with the touchscreen display for both video conferencing and still and / or video image acquisition.

[0113] In some embodiments, a depth map (e.g., a depth map image) includes information (e.g., values) related to the distance of objects in a scene from a viewpoint (e.g., a camera, an optical sensor, a depth camera sensor). In one embodiment of a depth map, each depth pixel defines the position of its corresponding two-dimensional pixel in the Z axis of the viewpoint. In some embodiments, a depth map is composed of pixels, where each pixel is defined by a value (e.g., 0 to 255). For example, a value of "0" represents the pixel that is farthest from the viewpoint (e.g., a camera, an optical sensor, a depth camera sensor) in a "three-dimensional" scene, and a value of "255" represents the pixel that is closest to the viewpoint in a "three-dimensional" scene. In other embodiments, a depth map represents the distance between objects in a scene and the plane of the viewpoint. In some embodiments, a depth map includes information about the relative depths of various features of an object of interest in the field of view of a depth camera (e.g., the relative depths of the eyes, nose, mouth, and ears of a user's face). In some embodiments, a depth map includes information that enables a device to determine the outline of an object of interest in the z direction.

[0114] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 . Figure 1A A contact force sensor is shown coupled to force sensor controller 159 in I / O subsystem 106. Contact force sensor 165 optionally includes one or more piezoresistive strain gauges, capacitive force sensors, electrical force sensors, piezoelectric force sensors, optical force sensors, capacitive touch-sensitive surfaces, or other force sensors (e.g., sensors for measuring the force (or pressure) of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface). Contact force sensor 165 receives contact force information (e.g., pressure information or a surrogate for pressure information) from the environment. In some embodiments, at least one contact force sensor is juxtaposed with or adjacent to a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112). In some embodiments, at least one contact force sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touch screen display 112 located on the front of device 100.

[0115] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more proximity sensors 166 . Figure 1AA proximity sensor 166 is shown coupled to the peripherals interface 118. Alternatively, the proximity sensor 166 is optionally coupled to the input controller 160 in the I / O subsystem 106. The proximity sensor 166 is optionally implemented as described in the following U.S. patent application serial numbers: 11 / 241,839, entitled “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device”; 11 / 240,788, entitled “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device”; 11 / 620,702, entitled “Using Ambient Light Sensor To Augment Proximity Sensor Output”; 11 / 586,862, entitled “Automated Response To And Sensing Of User Activity In Portable Devices”; and 11 / 638,251, entitled “Methods And Systems For Automatic Configuration Of Peripherals,” which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.

[0116] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more tactile output generators 167 . Figure 1A A tactile output generator is shown coupled to a tactile feedback controller 161 in the I / O subsystem 106. The tactile output generator 167 optionally includes one or more electroacoustic devices, such as speakers or other audio components; and / or electromechanical devices for converting energy into linear motion, such as motors, solenoids, electroactive polymers, piezoelectric actuators, electrostatic actuators, or other tactile output generating components (e.g., components for converting electrical signals into tactile outputs on the device). The contact force sensor 165 receives tactile feedback generation instructions from the tactile feedback module 133 and generates tactile outputs on the device 100 that can be felt by a user of the device 100. In some embodiments, at least one tactile output generator is juxtaposed or adjacent to a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112) and optionally generates tactile outputs by moving the touch-sensitive surface vertically (e.g., inward / outward toward the surface of the device 100) or laterally (e.g., back and forth in the same plane as the surface of the device 100). In some embodiments, at least one tactile output generator sensor is located on the back of the device 100, opposite the touch screen display 112 located on the front of the device 100.

[0117] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more accelerometers 168 . Figure 1A An accelerometer 168 is shown coupled to the peripherals interface 118. Alternatively, the accelerometer 168 is optionally coupled to the input controller 160 in the I / O subsystem 106. The accelerometer 168 optionally implements as described in the following U.S. Patent Publication Nos. 20050190059, entitled “Acceleration-based Theft Detection System for Portable Electronic Devices” and 20060017692, entitled “Methods And Apparatuses For Operating A Portable Device Based On An Accelerometer,” both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. In some embodiments, information is displayed on the touch screen display in a portrait view or a landscape view based on analysis of data received from one or more accelerometers. The device 100 optionally includes a magnetometer and a GPS (or GLONASS or other global navigation system) receiver in addition to the accelerometer 168 for obtaining information about the position and orientation (e.g., portrait or landscape) of the device 100.

[0118] In some embodiments, the software components stored in memory 102 include an operating system 126, a communication module (or instruction set) 128, a contact / motion module (or instruction set) 130, a graphics module (or instruction set) 132, a text input module (or instruction set) 134, a global positioning system (GPS) module (or instruction set) 135, and an application (or instruction set) 136. In addition, in some embodiments, memory 102 ( Figure 1A ) or 370( Figure 3 ) storage device / global internal state 157, such as Figure 1A and Figure 3 . The device / global internal state 157 includes one or more of the following: active application state, which indicates which application, if any, is currently active; display state, which indicates what applications, views, or other information occupy various areas of the touch screen display 112; sensor state, which includes information obtained from the device's various sensors and input control devices 116; and position information relating to the device's position and / or posture.

[0119] The operating system 126 (e.g., Darwin, RTXC, LINUX, UNIX, OS X, iOS, WINDOWS, or an embedded operating system such as VxWorks) includes various software components and / or drivers for controlling and managing general system tasks (e.g., memory management, storage device control, power management, etc.) and facilitating communication between various hardware components and software components.

[0120] The communication module 128 facilitates communication with other devices via one or more external ports 124 and also includes various software components for processing data received by the RF circuitry 108 and / or the external ports 124. The external ports 124 (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB), FireWire, etc.) are suitable for coupling directly to other devices or indirectly through a network (e.g., the Internet, wireless LAN, etc.). In some embodiments, the external ports are connected to (trademark of Apple Inc.) devices.

[0121] The contact / motion module 130 optionally detects contact with the touch screen 112 (in conjunction with the display controller 156) and other touch-sensitive devices (e.g., a touchpad or physical click wheel). The contact / motion module 130 includes various software components for performing various operations related to contact detection, such as determining whether contact has occurred (e.g., detecting a finger down event), determining the strength of the contact (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact, or a surrogate for the force or pressure of the contact), determining whether there has been movement of the contact and tracking the movement on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., detecting one or more finger drag events), and determining whether the contact has ceased (e.g., detecting a finger up event or contact break). The contact / motion module 130 receives contact data from the touch-sensitive surface. Determining the movement of a contact point optionally includes determining the rate (magnitude), velocity (magnitude and direction), and / or acceleration (change in magnitude and / or direction) of the contact point, the movement of which is represented by a series of contact data. These operations are optionally applied to a single point of contact (e.g., a single-finger contact) or multiple points of contact simultaneously (e.g., "multi-touch" / multiple-finger contact). In some embodiments, the contact / motion module 130 and display controller 156 detect contact on the touchpad.

[0122] In some embodiments, the contact / motion module 130 uses a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an action has been performed by a user (e.g., to determine whether a user has "clicked" an icon). In some embodiments, at least a subset of the intensity thresholds are determined based on software parameters (e.g., the intensity thresholds are not determined by the activation threshold of a particular physical actuator and can be adjusted without changing the physical hardware of the device 100). For example, a mouse "click" threshold for a touchpad or touchscreen can be set to any one of a large range of predefined thresholds without changing the touchpad or touchscreen display hardware. Additionally, in some embodiments, a software setting is provided to the user of the device for adjusting one or more intensity thresholds in a set of intensity thresholds (e.g., by adjusting individual intensity thresholds and / or by utilizing a system-level click on an "intensity" parameter to adjust multiple intensity thresholds at once).

[0123] Contact / motion module 130 optionally detects gesture input by the user. Different gestures on the touch-sensitive surface have different contact patterns (e.g., different motions, timings, and / or intensities of the detected contacts). Thus, gestures are optionally detected by detecting specific contact patterns. For example, detecting a finger tap gesture includes detecting a finger press event and then detecting a finger lift (lift-off) event at the same location (or substantially the same location) as the finger press event (e.g., at the location of an icon). As another example, detecting a finger swipe gesture on the touch-sensitive surface includes detecting a finger press event, then detecting one or more finger drag events, and then detecting a finger lift (lift-off) event.

[0124] The graphics module 132 includes various known software components for rendering and displaying graphics on the touch screen 112 or other display, including components for changing the visual impact (e.g., brightness, transparency, saturation, contrast, or other visual attributes) of the displayed graphics. As used herein, the term "graphics" includes any object that can be displayed to a user, including but not limited to text, web pages, icons (such as user interface objects including soft keys), digital images, videos, animations, etc.

[0125] In some embodiments, the graphics module 132 stores data representing graphics to be used. Each graphic is optionally assigned a corresponding code. The graphics module 132 receives one or more codes specifying the graphics to be displayed from an application or the like, along with coordinate data and other graphic attribute data if necessary, and then generates screen image data for output to the display controller 156.

[0126] Haptic feedback module 133 includes various software components for generating instructions used by tactile output generator 167 to produce tactile output at one or more locations on device 100 in response to user interaction with device 100 .

[0127] Text input module 134, which is optionally a component of graphics module 132, provides a soft keyboard for entering text in various applications (eg, contacts 137, email 140, IM 141, browser 147, and any other application requiring text input).

[0128] The GPS module 135 determines the location of the device and provides this information for use in various applications (e.g., to the phone 138 for use in location-based dialing; to the camera 143 as picture / video metadata; and to applications that provide location-based services, such as a weather widget, a local yellow pages widget, and a map / navigation widget).

In some embodiments, instant messaging module 141 is used instead of email client module 140 to send links to specific online videos. Additional descriptions of online video applications can be found in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 936,562, filed on June 20, 2007, entitled “Portable Multifunction Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Playing Online Videos,” and U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 968,067, filed on December 31, 2007, entitled “Portable Multifunction Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Playing Online Videos,” the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.

[0167] Each of the modules and applications described above corresponds to an executable instruction set for performing one or more of the functions described above and the methods described in this patent application (e.g., the computer-implemented methods and other information processing methods described herein). These modules (e.g., instruction sets) do not have to be implemented as independent software programs (such as computer programs (e.g., including instructions)), processes, or modules, and therefore various subsets of these modules are optionally combined or otherwise rearranged in various embodiments. For example, a video player module is optionally combined with a music player module into a single module (e.g., Figure 1A In some embodiments, the memory 102 optionally stores a subset of the above modules and data structures. In addition, the memory 102 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.

[0168] In some embodiments, device 100 is a device where operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively through a touch screen and / or a touchpad. By using the touch screen and / or the touchpad as the primary input control device for operating device 100, the number of physical input control devices (e.g., push buttons, dials, etc.) on device 100 is optionally reduced.

[0169] A predefined set of functions that are exclusively performed through the touch screen and / or touchpad optionally includes navigation between user interfaces. In some embodiments, the touchpad, when touched by the user, navigates the device 100 from any user interface displayed on the device 100 to a main menu, home menu, or root menu. In such embodiments, the touchpad is used to implement a "menu button." In some other embodiments, the menu button is a physical push button or other physical input control device, rather than a touchpad.

[0170] Figure 1B is a block diagram illustrating exemplary components for event processing according to some embodiments. In some embodiments, memory 102 ( Figure 1A ) or memory 370( Figure 3 ) includes an event classifier 170 (e.g., in the operating system 126) and a corresponding application 136-1 (e.g., any one of the aforementioned applications 137 to 151, 155, 380 to 390).

[0171] Event classifier 170 receives event information and determines the application 136-1 and the application view 191 of application 136-1 to which the event information is to be delivered. Event classifier 170 includes an event monitor 171 and an event dispatcher module 174. In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes an application internal state 192 that indicates one or more current application views displayed on touch-sensitive display 112 when the application is active or executing. In some embodiments, device / global internal state 157 is used by event classifier 170 to determine which application(s) is currently active, and application internal state 192 is used by event classifier 170 to determine the application view 191 to which the event information is to be delivered.

[0172] In some embodiments, the application internal state 192 includes additional information, such as one or more of the following: resumption information to be used when application 136-1 resumes execution, user interface state information indicating that information is being displayed or is ready to be displayed by application 136-1, a state queue for enabling the user to return to a previous state or view of application 136-1, and a repeat / undo queue of previous actions taken by the user.

[0173] Event monitor 171 receives event information from peripherals interface 118. The event information includes information about sub-events (e.g., a user touch on touch-sensitive display 112 as part of a multi-touch gesture). Peripherals interface 118 transmits information it receives from I / O subsystem 106 or sensors such as proximity sensor 166, one or more accelerometers 168, and / or microphone 113 (via audio circuit 110). The information that peripherals interface 118 receives from I / O subsystem 106 includes information from touch-sensitive display 112 or a touch-sensitive surface.

[0174] In some embodiments, event monitor 171 sends requests to peripheral device interface 118 at predetermined intervals. In response, peripheral device interface 118 transmits event information. In other embodiments, peripheral device interface 118 transmits event information only when there is a significant event (e.g., receiving an input above a predetermined noise threshold and / or receiving an input for more than a predetermined duration).

[0175] In some embodiments, the event classifier 170 also includes a hit view determination module 172 and / or an active event identifier determination module 173.

[0176] When the touch-sensitive display 112 displays more than one view, the hit view determination module 172 provides software procedures for determining where within one or more views a sub-event has occurred. A view consists of controls and other elements that a user can see on the display.

[0177] Another aspect of the user interface associated with an application is a set of views, sometimes also referred to herein as application views or user interface windows, in which information is displayed and touch-based gestures occur. The application views (of the respective application) in which a touch is detected optionally correspond to programmatic levels within the application's programmatic or view hierarchy. For example, the lowest-level view in which a touch is detected is optionally referred to as a hit view, and the set of events that are recognized as correct input is optionally determined based at least in part on the hit view of the initial touch that started the touch-based gesture.

[0178] Hit view determination module 172 receives information related to sub-events of touch-based gestures. When an application has multiple views organized in a hierarchy, hit view determination module 172 identifies the hit view as the lowest view in the hierarchy that should handle the sub-events. In most cases, the hit view is the lowest-level view in which the initiating sub-event (e.g., the first sub-event in a sequence of sub-events that form an event or potential event) occurs. Once a hit view is identified by hit view determination module 172, the hit view typically receives all sub-events related to the same touch or input source for which it was identified as the hit view.

[0179] Active event recognizer determination module 173 determines which view or views within the view hierarchy should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In some embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that only the hit view should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that all views that include the physical location of the sub-event are actively participating views, and therefore determines that all actively participating views should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, even if a touch sub-event is completely confined to an area associated with one particular view, views higher in the hierarchy will still remain actively participating views.

[0180] Event dispatcher module 174 dispatches event information to event recognizers (e.g., event recognizer 180). In embodiments that include active event recognizer determination module 173, event dispatcher module 174 delivers the event information to the event recognizer determined by active event recognizer determination module 173. In some embodiments, event dispatcher module 174 stores the event information in an event queue, which is retrieved by corresponding event receiver 182.

[0181] In some embodiments, operating system 126 includes event classifier 170. Alternatively, application 136-1 includes event classifier 170. In yet another embodiment, event classifier 170 is a standalone module or part of another module stored in memory 102, such as contact / motion module 130.

[0182] In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes multiple event handlers 190 and one or more application views 191, each of which includes instructions for handling touch events that occur within a corresponding view of the application's user interface. Each application view 191 of application 136-1 includes one or more event recognizers 180. Typically, a corresponding application view 191 includes multiple event recognizers 180. In other embodiments, one or more of event recognizers 180 are part of a separate module, such as a user interface toolkit or a higher-level object from which application 136-1 inherits methods and other properties. In some embodiments, a corresponding event handler 190 includes one or more of the following: a data updater 176, an object updater 177, a GUI updater 178, and / or event data 179 received from an event classifier 170. Event handler 190 optionally utilizes or calls data updater 176, object updater 177, or GUI updater 178 to update the application internal state 192. Alternatively, one or more of the application views 191 include one or more corresponding event handlers 190. Additionally, in some embodiments, one or more of the data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178 are included in the corresponding application view 191.

[0183] A corresponding event identifier 180 receives event information (e.g., event data 179) from event classifier 170 and identifies an event based on the event information. Event identifier 180 includes an event receiver 182 and an event comparator 184. In some embodiments, event identifier 180 also includes metadata 183 and at least a subset of event delivery instructions 188 (which optionally include sub-event delivery instructions).

[0184] The event receiver 182 receives event information from the event classifier 170. The event information includes information about sub-events such as touches or touch movements. Depending on the sub-event, the event information also includes additional information, such as the location of the sub-event. When the sub-event involves the movement of a touch, the event information optionally also includes the rate and direction of the sub-event. In some embodiments, the event includes the device rotating from one orientation to another (e.g., from a portrait orientation to a landscape orientation, or vice versa), and the event information includes corresponding information about the current orientation of the device (also referred to as the device posture).

[0185] The event comparator 184 compares the event information with predefined event or sub-event definitions and determines the event or sub-event based on the comparison, or determines or updates the state of the event or sub-event. In some embodiments, the event comparator 184 includes an event definition 186. The event definition 186 includes the definition of the event (e.g., a predefined sequence of sub-events), such as event 1 (187-1), event 2 (187-2), and others. In some embodiments, the sub-events in event (187) include, for example, touch start, touch end, touch move, touch cancel, and multi-touch. In one example, the definition of event 1 (187-1) is a double-click on a displayed object. For example, a double-click includes a first touch (touch start) of a predetermined duration on the displayed object, a first lift-off (touch end) of a predetermined duration, a second touch (touch start) of a predetermined duration on the displayed object, and a second lift-off (touch end) of a predetermined duration. In another example, the definition of event 2 (187-2) is a drag on a displayed object. For example, dragging includes a touch (or contact) of a predetermined duration on a displayed object, movement of the touch on the touch-sensitive display 112, and lifting of the touch (touch end). In some embodiments, the event also includes information for one or more associated event handlers 190.

[0186] In some embodiments, event definition 187 includes definitions of events for corresponding user interface objects. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which user interface object is associated with a sub-event. For example, in an application view displaying three user interface objects on touch-sensitive display 112, when a touch is detected on touch-sensitive display 112, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which of the three user interface objects is associated with the touch (sub-event). If each displayed object is associated with a corresponding event handler 190, the event comparator uses the result of the hit test to determine which event handler 190 should be activated. For example, event comparator 184 selects an event handler that is associated with the sub-event and the object that triggered the hit test.

[0187] In some embodiments, the definition of the corresponding event (187) also includes a delay action that delays the delivery of the event information until it has been determined that the sub-event sequence does or does not correspond to the event type of the event identifier.

[0188] When a corresponding event recognizer 180 determines that a sequence of sub-events does not match any event in event definitions 186, the corresponding event recognizer 180 enters the event impossible, event failed, or event ended state, after which subsequent sub-events of the touch-based gesture are ignored. In this case, other event recognizers (if any) that remain active for the hit view continue to track and process sub-events of the ongoing touch-based gesture.

[0189] In some embodiments, corresponding event recognizers 180 include metadata 183 with configurable properties, flags, and / or lists that indicate how the event delivery system should perform sub-event delivery for actively participating event recognizers. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and / or lists that indicate how event recognizers interact or can interact with each other. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and / or lists that indicate whether sub-events are delivered to different levels in a view or programmatic hierarchy.

[0190] In some embodiments, when one or more specific sub-events of an event are identified, the corresponding event recognizer 180 activates the event handler 190 associated with the event. In some embodiments, the corresponding event recognizer 180 delivers event information associated with the event to the event handler 190. Activating the event handler 190 is different from sending (and deferred sending) the sub-events to the corresponding hit view. In some embodiments, the event recognizer 180 throws a flag associated with the identified event, and the event handler 190 associated with the flag obtains the flag and performs a predefined process.

[0191] In some embodiments, event delivery instructions 188 include sub-event delivery instructions that deliver event information about a sub-event without activating an event handler. Instead, the sub-event delivery instructions deliver the event information to an event handler associated with the sub-event sequence or to an actively participating view. The event handler associated with the sub-event sequence or the actively participating view receives the event information and executes a predetermined process.

[0192] In some embodiments, data updater 176 creates and updates data used in application 136-1. For example, data updater 176 updates phone numbers used in contact module 137 or stores video files used in video player module. In some embodiments, object updater 177 creates and updates objects used in application 136-1. For example, object updater 177 creates new user interface objects or updates the positioning of user interface objects. GUI updater 178 updates the GUI. For example, GUI updater 178 prepares display information and sends the display information to graphics module 132 for display on a touch-sensitive display.

[0193] In some embodiments, event handler 190 includes or has access to data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178. In some embodiments, data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178 are included in a single module of the corresponding application 136-1 or application view 191. In other embodiments, they are included in two or more software modules.

[0194] It should be understood that the above discussion of event handling for user touches on a touch-sensitive display also applies to other forms of user input utilizing input devices to operate the multifunction device 100, and not all user input is initiated on the touch screen. For example, mouse movement and mouse button presses, optionally in conjunction with single or multiple keyboard presses or holddowns; contact movement on a touchpad, such as taps, drags, scrolls, etc.; stylus input; movement of the device; spoken commands; detected eye movement; biometric input; and / or any combination thereof, are optionally used as input corresponding to sub-events defining the event to be recognized.

[0195] Figure 2A portable multifunction device 100 with a touch screen 112 according to some embodiments is illustrated. The touch screen optionally displays one or more graphics within a user interface (UI) 200. In this embodiment and other embodiments described below, a user can select one or more of the graphics by, for example, making gestures on the graphics using one or more fingers 202 (not drawn to scale in the figure) or one or more styluses 203 (not drawn to scale in the figure). In some embodiments, selection of the one or more graphics occurs when the user breaks contact with the one or more graphics. In some embodiments, the gesture optionally includes one or more taps, one or more swipes (from left to right, from right to left, up and / or down), and / or rolling of the finger that has made contact with the device 100 (from right to left, from left to right, up and / or down). In some implementations or in some cases, inadvertent contact with a graphic does not select the graphic. For example, a swipe gesture that sweeps over an application icon does not select the corresponding application when the gesture corresponding to selection is a tap.

[0196] The device 100 optionally also includes one or more physical buttons, such as a "home" or menu button 204. As previously described, the menu button 204 is optionally used to navigate to any application 136 in a set of applications optionally being executed on the device 100. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the menu button is implemented as a soft key in a GUI displayed on the touch screen 112.

[0197] In some embodiments, the device 100 includes a touch screen 112, a menu button 204, a push button 206 for turning the device on / off and for locking the device, one or more volume adjustment buttons 208, a subscriber identity module (SIM) card slot 210, a headset jack 212, and a docking / charging external port 124. The push button 206 is optionally used to turn the device on / off by pressing the button and holding it in the depressed state for a predefined time interval; to lock the device by pressing the button and releasing it before the predefined time interval has elapsed; and / or to unlock the device or initiate an unlocking process. In an alternative embodiment, the device 100 also accepts voice input for activating or deactivating certain functions via the microphone 113. The device 100 also optionally includes one or more contact force sensors 165 for detecting the intensity of contact on the touch screen 112, and / or one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile output for the user of the device 100.

[0198] Figure 33 is a block diagram of an exemplary multifunction device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface according to some embodiments. The device 300 does not have to be portable. In some embodiments, the device 300 is a laptop, a desktop computer, a tablet computer, a multimedia player device, a navigation device, an educational device (such as a children's learning toy), a gaming system, or a control device (e.g., a home controller or an industrial controller). The device 300 typically includes one or more processing units (CPUs) 310, one or more network or other communication interfaces 360, a memory 370, and one or more communication buses 320 for interconnecting these components. The communication bus 320 optionally includes circuits (sometimes referred to as a chipset) that interconnect system components and control communications between system components. The device 300 includes an input / output (I / O) interface 330 having a display 340, which is typically a touch screen display. The I / O interface 330 also optionally includes a keyboard and / or mouse (or other pointing device) 350 and a touchpad 355, a tactile output generator 357 for generating tactile output on the device 300 (e.g., similar to the above referenced device). Figure 1A Tactile output generator 167 as described above), sensor 359 (e.g., optical sensor, acceleration sensor, proximity sensor, touch sensitive sensor and / or contact intensity sensor (similar to the above reference Figure 1A 310). Memory 370 includes high-speed random access memory, such as DRAM, SRAM, DDR RAM, or other random access solid-state memory devices; and optionally includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, optical disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid-state storage devices. Memory 370 optionally includes one or more storage devices located remotely from CPU 310. In some embodiments, memory 370 stores data related to portable multifunction device 100 ( Figure 1A ) or a subset thereof. In addition, memory 370 optionally stores additional programs, modules, and data structures not present in memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100. For example, memory 370 of device 300 optionally stores a drawing module 380, a presentation module 382, ​​a word processing module 384, a website creation module 386, a disk editing module 388, and / or a spreadsheet module 390, while portable multifunction device 100( Figure 1A )'s memory 102 optionally does not store these modules.

[0199] Figure 3Each element in the above-mentioned elements in is optionally stored in one or more memory devices of the memory device mentioned previously.Each module in the above-mentioned modules corresponds to the instruction set for performing the function described above.Above-mentioned modules or computer programs (for example, instruction sets or including instructions) need not be realized with independent software programs (such as computer programs (for example, including instructions)), processes or modules, and therefore the various subsets of these modules are optionally combined or otherwise rearranged in various embodiments.In some embodiments, memory 370 optionally stores the subset of above-mentioned modules and data structures.In addition, memory 370 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.

[0200] Attention is now turned to an embodiment of a user interface, optionally implemented on, for example, portable multifunction device 100 .

[0201] Figure 4A An exemplary user interface for an application menu on portable multifunction device 100 is illustrated according to some embodiments. A similar user interface is optionally implemented on device 300. In some embodiments, user interface 400 includes the following elements, or a subset or superset thereof:

[0202] Signal strength indicators 402 for wireless communications such as cellular and Wi-Fi signals;

[0203] ●Time 404;

[0204] Bluetooth indicator 405;

[0205] Battery status indicator 406;

[0206] A tray 408 with icons for commonly used applications such as:

[0209] o An icon 420 labeled "Browser" of the browser module 147; and

[0210] o an icon 422 labeled “iPod” for the video and music player module 152 (also referred to as the iPod (trademark of Apple Inc.) module 152); and

[0211] ● Icons for other apps, such as:

[0212] o Icon 424 labeled “Messages” of IM module 141;

[0213] o Icon 426 labeled “Calendar” of calendar module 148;

[0214] o Icon 428 labeled “Photos” of the image management module 144;

[0223] o An icon 446 of a settings application or module labeled “Settings” that provides access to settings for the device 100 and its various applications 136 .

[0224] It should be pointed out that Figure 4A The illustrated icon labels are merely exemplary. For example, the icon 422 of the video and music player module 152 is labeled "Music" or "Music Player." Other labels are optionally used for various application icons. In some embodiments, the label of a respective application icon includes the name of the application corresponding to the respective application icon. In some embodiments, the label of a particular application icon is different from the name of the application corresponding to the particular application icon.

[0225] Figure 4B A touch-sensitive surface 451 (eg, touch screen display 112) is illustrated as being separate from a display 450 (eg, touch screen display 112). Figure 3 tablet or touchpad 355) of the device (e.g., Figure 3Device 300 also optionally includes one or more contact intensity sensors (e.g., one or more of sensors 359) for detecting intensity of contacts on touch-sensitive surface 451 and / or one or more tactile output generators 357 for generating tactile output for a user of device 300.

[0226] Although some of the examples below will be given with reference to input on a touch screen display 112 (where the touch-sensitive surface and display are combined), in some embodiments, the device detects input on a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the display, such as Figure 4B In some embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., Figure 4B 451) has a main axis (e.g., Figure 4B 453) corresponding to the main axis (for example, Figure 4B According to these embodiments, the device detects a position corresponding to a corresponding position on the display (e.g., Figure 4B , 460 corresponds to 468 and 462 corresponds to 470 ) at contact with touch-sensitive surface 451 (e.g., Figure 4B 460 and 462 in FIG. 4. Thus, when the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., Figure 4B 451) and a display of a multi-function device (e.g., Figure 4B When the user interface 450 in FIG. 1 is separated, the user input detected by the device on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., contacts 460 and 462 and their movement) is used by the device to manipulate the user interface on the display. It should be understood that similar methods are optionally used for other user interfaces described herein.

[0227] Additionally, although the following examples are primarily given with reference to finger inputs (e.g., finger contacts, single-finger tap gestures, finger swipe gestures), it should be understood that in some embodiments, one or more of these finger inputs are replaced by input from another input device (e.g., mouse-based input or stylus input). For example, a swipe gesture is optionally replaced by a mouse click (e.g., instead of contact), followed by movement of the cursor along the path of the swipe (e.g., instead of movement of the contact). For another example, a tap gesture is optionally replaced by a mouse click when the cursor is over the location of the tap gesture (e.g., instead of detecting the contact, followed by ceasing to detect the contact). Similarly, when multiple user inputs are detected simultaneously, it should be understood that multiple computer mice are optionally used simultaneously, or mice and finger contacts are optionally used simultaneously.

[0228] Figure 5AAn exemplary personal electronic device 500 is illustrated. The device 500 includes a body 502. In some embodiments, the device 500 may include components related to devices 100 and 300 (e.g., Figures 1A to 4B ) some or all of the features described in . In some embodiments, device 500 has a touch-sensitive display screen 504, referred to hereinafter as touch screen 504. Alternatively, or in addition to touch screen 504, device 500 also has a display and a touch-sensitive surface. As with devices 100 and 300, in some embodiments, touch screen 504 (or touch-sensitive surface) optionally includes one or more intensity sensors for detecting the intensity of the contact (e.g., touch) applied. The one or more intensity sensors of touch screen 504 (or touch-sensitive surface) can provide output data representing the intensity of the touch. The user interface of device 500 can respond to the touch based on the intensity of the touch, which means that touches of different intensities can invoke different user interface operations on device 500.

[0229] Exemplary techniques for detecting and processing touch intensity are found, for example, in the following related patent applications: International Patent Application Serial No. PCT / US2013 / 040061, entitled “Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Displaying User Interface Objects Corresponding to an Application,” filed on May 8, 2013, published as WIPO Patent Publication No. WO / 2013 / 169849; and International Patent Application Serial No. PCT / US2013 / 069483, entitled “Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Transitioning Between Touch Input to Display Output Relationships,” filed on November 11, 2013, published as WIPO Patent Publication No. WO / 2014 / 105276, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0230] In some embodiments, the device 500 has one or more input mechanisms 506 and 508. Input mechanisms 506 and 508 (if included) can be physical. Examples of physical input mechanisms include push buttons and rotatable mechanisms. In some embodiments, the device 500 has one or more attachment mechanisms. Such attachment mechanisms (if included) can allow the device 500 to be attached to, for example, hats, glasses, earrings, necklaces, shirts, jackets, bracelets, watchbands, bracelets, pants, belts, shoes, wallets, backpacks, etc. These attachment mechanisms allow the user to wear the device 500.

[0231] Figure 5B An exemplary personal electronic device 500 is depicted. In some embodiments, the device 500 may include information about Figure 1A 、 Figure 1B and Figure 3 Some or all of the components described. Device 500 has a bus 512 that operatively couples an I / O portion 514 to one or more computer processors 516 and a memory 518. The I / O portion 514 can be connected to a display 504, which can have a touch-sensitive component 522 and optionally a strength sensor 524 (e.g., a contact strength sensor). In addition, the I / O portion 514 can be connected to a communication unit 530 for receiving application and operating system data using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, near field communication (NFC), cellular, and / or other wireless communication technologies. Device 500 may include input mechanisms 506 and / or 508. For example, the input mechanism 506 is optionally a rotatable input device or a depressible input device and a rotatable input device. In some examples, the input mechanism 508 is optionally a button.

[0232] In some examples, input mechanism 508 is optionally a microphone. Personal electronic device 500 optionally includes various sensors, such as a GPS sensor 532, an accelerometer 534, an orientation sensor 540 (e.g., a compass), a gyroscope 536, a motion sensor 538, and / or combinations thereof, all of which are operatively connected to I / O portion 514.

[0233] The memory 518 of the personal electronic device 500 may include one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media for storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more computer processors 516, may cause the computer processors to perform the techniques described below, including processes 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700, and 1900 ( Figure 7 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 、 Figure 15 、 Figure 17 and Figure 19 ). Computer-readable storage media can be any medium that can tangibly contain or store computer-executable instructions for use by or in conjunction with instruction execution systems, devices, and apparatuses. In some examples, the storage medium is a transient computer-readable storage medium. In some examples, the storage medium is a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. Non-transitory computer-readable storage media may include, but are not limited to, magnetic storage devices, optical storage devices, and / or semiconductor storage devices. Examples of such storage devices include magnetic disks, optical disks based on CD, DVD, or Blu-ray technology, and persistent solid-state memories such as flash memory, solid-state drives, and the like. Personal electronic device 500 is not limited to Figure 5B components and configurations, but may include other components or additional components in a variety of configurations.

[0234] As used herein, the term "indicator" refers to an indication that is optionally provided on device 100, 300, and / or 500 ( Figure 1A 、 Figure 3 and Figures 5A to 5B ) is a user-interactive graphical user interface object displayed on a display screen of a computer. For example, an image (e.g., an icon), a button, and text (e.g., a hyperlink) optionally each constitute an affordance.

[0235] As used herein, the term "focus selector" refers to an input element used to indicate the current portion of a user interface with which a user is interacting. In some implementations that include a cursor or other position marker, the cursor acts as a "focus selector" such that when the cursor is over a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element), a focus selector is displayed on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., Figure 3 Touchpad 355 or Figure 4B In the event that an input (e.g., a press input) is detected on the touch-sensitive surface 451 in FIG, the particular user interface element is adjusted according to the detected input. In the case of a touch screen display (e.g., a touch screen display) that enables direct interaction with user interface elements on the touch screen display Figure 1A touch-sensitive display system 112 or Figure 4AIn some implementations of the touch screen 112 in FIG, 2 , a contact detected on the touch screen acts as a “focus selector” such that when input (e.g., a press input by the contact) is detected at the location of a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element) on the touch screen display, the particular user interface element is adjusted according to the detected input. In some implementations, the focus moves from one area of ​​the user interface to another area of ​​the user interface without corresponding movement of a cursor or movement of a contact on the touch screen display (e.g., by using a tab key or arrow keys to move the focus from one button to another); in these implementations, the focus selector moves according to the movement of the focus between different areas of the user interface. Regardless of the specific form the focus selector takes, the focus selector is generally a user interface element (or contact on the touch screen display) that is controlled by the user to deliver the user's intended interaction with the user interface (e.g., by indicating to the device the element of the user interface with which the user desires to interact). For example, when a press input is detected on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchpad or touch screen), the position of a focus selector (e.g., a cursor, contact, or selection box) over a corresponding button will indicate that the user intends to activate the corresponding button (rather than other user interface elements shown on the device display).

[0236] As used in the specification and claims, the term "characteristic intensity" of a contact refers to a characteristic of the contact based on one or more intensities of the contact. In some embodiments, the characteristic intensity is based on multiple intensity samples. The characteristic intensity is optionally based on a predefined number of intensity samples or a set of intensity samples collected during a predetermined time period (e.g., 0.05 seconds, 0.1 seconds, 0.2 seconds, 0.5 seconds, 1 second, 2 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds) relative to a predefined event (e.g., after contact is detected, before contact is detected to be lifted off, before or after contact begins to move, before contact ends, before or after contact is detected to increase in intensity, and / or before or after contact is detected to decrease in intensity). The characteristic intensity of a contact is optionally based on one or more of the following: the maximum value of the intensity of the contact, the mean value of the intensity of the contact, the average value of the intensity of the contact, the value at the top 10% of the intensity of the contact, the half-maximum value of the intensity of the contact, the 90% maximum value of the intensity of the contact, etc. In some embodiments, the duration of the contact is used in determining the characteristic intensity (e.g., when the characteristic intensity is the average value of the intensity of the contact over time). In some embodiments, the feature strength is compared to a set of one or more strength thresholds to determine whether the user has performed an operation. For example, the set of one or more strength thresholds optionally includes a first strength threshold and a second strength threshold. In this example, a contact whose feature strength does not exceed the first threshold results in a first operation, a contact whose feature strength exceeds the first strength threshold but does not exceed the second strength threshold results in a second operation, and a contact whose feature strength exceeds the second threshold results in a third operation. In some embodiments, a comparison between the feature strength and one or more thresholds is used to determine whether to perform one or more operations (e.g., whether to perform the corresponding operation or to abandon the corresponding operation) rather than to determine whether to perform the first operation or the second operation.

[0237] As used herein, an "installed application" refers to a software application that has been downloaded to an electronic device (e.g., device 100, 300, and / or 500) and is ready to be launched (e.g., become open) on the device. In some embodiments, a downloaded application becomes an installed application using an installer that extracts program portions from the downloaded software package and integrates the extracted portions with the computer system's operating system.

[0238] As used herein, the term "open application" or "executing application" refers to a software application that has persisted state information (e.g., as part of device / global internal state 157 and / or application internal state 192). An open or executing application is optionally any of the following types of applications:

[0239] The active app currently displayed on the display of the device on which the app is being used;

[0240] ● Background applications (or background processes), which are not currently displayed but for which one or more processes are being processed by one or more processors; and

[0241] ●Not running but stored in memory (volatile and non-volatile respectively)

[0242] A suspended or dormant application that contains status information that can be used to resume execution of the application.

[0243] As used herein, the term "closed application" refers to a software application that does not retain state information (e.g., the state information of a closed application is not stored in the device's memory). Therefore, closing an application includes stopping and / or removing the application's application process and removing the application's state information from the device's memory. Generally speaking, when in a first application, opening a second application does not close the first application. When the second application is displayed and the first application stops displaying, the first application becomes a background application.

[0244] Attention is now turned to an embodiment of a user interface ("UI") and associated processes implemented on an electronic device, such as portable multifunction device 100, device 300, or device 500.

[0245] Figures 6A to 6K An example clock user interface including simulated emitted light according to some embodiments is illustrated. The user interface in these figures is used to illustrate the process described below, including Figure 7 in the process.

[0246] Figure 6A A computer system 600 (e.g., a smartwatch) having a display 602 is illustrated. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 and / or the display 602 are in sleep or low power mode. In some embodiments, the display 602 is dimmed and / or disabled. The computer system 600 includes a rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 includes one or more features of the device 100, the device 300, and / or the device 500. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 is a tablet computer, a phone, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, and / or a camera. In some embodiments, the inputs described below may be replaced with alternative inputs, such as press inputs and / or rotation inputs received via the rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604.

[0247] In response to detecting an input, such as a tap input, a wrist raise input, a press input received via the rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604, and / or a rotation input received via the rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604, the computer system 600 displays Figure 6B Clock user interface 606 is shown.

[0248] In some embodiments, the clock user interface 606 is displayed on a tablet computer, phone (e.g., a smartphone), laptop computer, and / or desktop computer. In some embodiments, the clock user interface 606 is displayed on the home screen, lock screen, and / or wake screen of the tablet computer, phone, laptop computer, and / or desktop computer.

[0249] The clock user interface 606 includes a visual effect 606a, simulated emitted light 606b, an hour hand area 606c, a visual effect 606d, a dial element area 606e, a visual effect 606f, simulated emitted light 606g, a minute hand area 606h, a visual effect 606i, a dial element area 606j, a visual effect 606k, a dial element area 606l, a shadow 606m, a complication block 606n associated with the current temperature, a background 606o, a dial element area 606p, and a second hand area 606s. The clock user interface 606 represents a 12-hour analog clock face and includes an hour hand area 606c, a minute hand area 606h, and a second hand area 606s, which indicate the positions of the corresponding clock hands. Specifically, simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g are emitted (or appear to be so) from the hour hand area 606c and the minute hand area 606h, respectively, to provide an indication of the position of the clock hands. Figure 6B In the illustrated embodiment, the hour hand and minute hand are not actually displayed in hour hand area 606c and minute hand area 606h, respectively. In some embodiments, clock hands are displayed that emit simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g. For example, instead of simulated emission light 606b appearing to be emitted from one area of ​​clock user interface 606, the hour hand is displayed in the location of hour hand area 606c.

[0250] exist Figure 6B , a clock user interface 606 is shown when the current time of day is 9:11. Thus, the hour hand region 606c (e.g., the hour hand) is located at the 9 o'clock position and the minute hand region 606h (e.g., the minute hand) is located at the 11-minute position. Visual effects 606a of the clock user interface 606 include simulated light emission 606b, which indicates that the hour hand region 606c is located at the 9 o'clock position because the simulated light emission 606b appears to be emitted from the clockwise edge of the hour hand region 606c. Visual effects 606f of the clock user interface 606 include simulated light emission 606g, which indicates that the minute hand region 606h is located at the 11-minute position because the simulated light emission 606g appears to be emitted from the counterclockwise edge of the minute hand region 606h.

[0251] Although Figure 6B, simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g are described as being emitted from the clockwise edge of the hour hand region 606c and the counterclockwise edge of the minute hand region 606h, respectively, but simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g may also be emitted from other edges of the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606h. In some embodiments, simulated emission light 606b is emitted from the counterclockwise edge of the hour hand region 606c, and simulated emission light 606g is emitted from the counterclockwise edge of the minute hand region 606h. In some embodiments, simulated emission light 606b is emitted from the clockwise edge of the hour hand region 606c, and simulated emission light 606g is emitted from the clockwise edge of the minute hand region 606h. In some embodiments, simulated emission light 606b is emitted from the counterclockwise edge of hour hand region 606c, and simulated emission light 606g is emitted from the clockwise edge of minute hand region 606h. Thus, any combination of the edges of hour hand region 606c and minute hand region 606h can emit simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g, respectively.

[0252] Visual effect 606d is based on simulated emitted light 606b from hour hand region 606c and the position of hour hand region 606c relative to the position of dial element region 606e (e.g., time marker). For example, hour hand region 606c is positioned such that simulated emitted light 606b illuminates dial element region 606e (e.g., time marker), thereby creating visual effect 606d (e.g., displayed time marker and corresponding shadow). Furthermore, dial element region 606e (e.g., time marker) blocks simulated emitted light 606b and creates shadow 606m. Similarly, visual effect 606i is based on simulated emitted light 606g from minute hand region 606h and the position of minute hand region 606h relative to the position of dial element region 606j. Consequently, minute hand region 606h is positioned such that simulated emitted light 606g illuminates dial element region 606j, thereby creating visual effect 606i. Additionally, dial element region 606j blocks simulated emitted light 606g and forms a shadow 606m.

[0253] In some embodiments, simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g illuminate the same dial element area, such as dial element area 606l. In this position, dial element area 606l blocks both simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g and forms a shadow based on simulated emission light 606b and a shadow based on simulated emission light 606g. Thus, visual effect 606k includes two shadows formed by the interaction of dial element area 606l with simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g, and these two shadows will change as the positions of hour hand area 606c and hour hand area 606h change.

[0254] In some embodiments, the minute hand region 606h blocks the simulated emitted light 606b. For example, when the minute hand region 606h is closer to the hour hand region 606c (such as near the 12 o'clock position or the 0 minute position), the minute hand region 606h blocks the simulated emitted light 606b from being spread on the clock user interface 606.

[0255] exist Figure 6B 6, hour hand region 606c includes a cutout 606z, and a portion of the edge of hour hand region 606c is curved. The curve and cutout of hour hand region 606c interact with simulated emitted light 606b, making simulated emitted light 606b appear to be naturally emitted from the curve and cutout of hour hand region 606c. This enhances the appearance of simulated emitted light 606b and clock user interface 606 as a whole by providing simulated emitted light that appears to realistically and clearly indicate the position of hour hand region 606c, thereby helping the user determine the current time of day.

[0256] In some embodiments, the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606h have the same color (e.g., black) as the background 606o of the clock user interface 600. Thus, as described above, the positions of the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606h can be observed based on the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g, thereby providing the user with an indication of the current time even though the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606h appear to blend in with the background 606o (e.g., no hour or minute hands are displayed).

[0257] Some areas of the clock user interface 606 that are not illuminated by the simulated emission light 606b and / or the simulated emission light 606g (such as the user interface area 606p) also have the same color as the background 606o and do not appear to be displayed. Therefore, the number of user interface areas that are illuminated by the simulated emission light 606b and / or the simulated emission light 606g, and therefore block the simulated emission light 606b and / or the simulated emission light 606g, is based on the position of the hour hand area 606c and the minute hand area 606h. As the position of the hour hand area 606c and the minute hand area 606h changes, the simulated emission light 606b and the simulated emission light 606g interact with different user interface areas, causing the user interface areas to be illuminated and form shadows, as discussed further below. Figures 6F to 6K shown.

[0258] In some embodiments, a user can select whether simulated emitted light 606b and / or simulated emitted light 606g interacts with dial element region 606e, dial element region 606j, dial element region 606l, and dial element region 606p representing time indicia of clock user interface 606 (e.g., whether hour and / or minute indicia are displayed and / or visible when in the path of the emitted light). The user can make this selection by selecting a setting or parameter for clock user interface 606 (e.g., in a settings or edit menu). Thus, clock user interface 606 can be displayed without any time indicia, thereby allowing simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g to illuminate background 606o without interference from the user interface region representing the time indicia.

[0259] exist Figure 6B , simulated emitted light 606b includes a first color, and simulated emitted light 606g includes a second color different from the first color. For example, simulated emitted light 606b can be red, while simulated emitted light 606g is green. In some embodiments, simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g are the same color. For example, clock user interface 606 can be displayed in black and white mode, where simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g are both white (or shades of gray).

[0260] In some embodiments, computer system 600 detects an input corresponding to a selection to change the color of simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g, and in response, changes the color of simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g. For example, an option to change the color of simulated emission light 606b and simulated emission light 606g from red and green to white can be selected, and the color of simulated emission light 606b can be changed from red to white, and the color of simulated emission light 606g can be changed from green to white.

[0261] exist Figure 6B , simulated emitted light 606b is emitted from the clockwise edge of the hour hand region 606c, but not from the counterclockwise edge of the hour hand region 606c. Similarly, simulated emitted light 606g is emitted from the counterclockwise edge of the minute hand region 606h, but not from the clockwise edge of the minute hand region 606h. Therefore, because the luminous edges of the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606h face each other, the simulated emitted light 606b is combined (e.g., interacts, merges, and / or overlaps) with the simulated emitted light 606g in the visual effect 606k of the clock user interface 606. In some embodiments, such as below in Figures 6I to 6KAs with the embodiments discussed in , the luminous edges of the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606h face away from each other, and the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g do not interact or minimally interact.

[0262] In some embodiments, the simulated emission light 606b and / or the simulated emission light 606g does not affect the visual appearance of the complex function block 606m. For example, the simulated emission light 606b and / or the simulated emission light 606g stops before reaching the complex function block or is blocked by the boundary of the complex function block. Figure 6B , simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g stop before interacting with complication 606m associated with the current temperature and / or weather application (e.g., at the border of the circular area of ​​the clock user interface). Similarly, simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g stop before interacting with the complication of the current UV index and / or any other complication displayed in clock user interface 606. Thus, simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g do not affect complication 606m or other complication blocks of clock user interface 606, thereby enabling the user to clearly view the information displayed by the complication blocks.

[0263] In some embodiments, the computer system 600 (e.g., in response to user input in a clock face editing user interface, such as a clock face editing user interface) changes the complication 606m from being associated with a current temperature and / or weather application to being associated with another application, such as a workout application. Similarly, in some embodiments, the computer system 600 changes some or all of the complication blocks displayed in the clock user interface 606 to other complication blocks. Thus, some or all of the complication blocks displayed in the clock user interface 606 can be associated with applications other than those described herein.

[0264] In some embodiments, the computer system 600 does not display (or stops displaying) the complication 606m (and / or one or more of the other complication blocks displayed in the clock user interface 606) and Figure 6B 6. For example, when complication 606m and other complication blocks are not displayed in clock user interface 606, the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g extend to the edge of display 602 and are not occupied by the complication blocks in clock user interface 606. Figure 6B The area occupied by the complex functional blocks in the block.

[0265] In some embodiments, when a complication is not displayed in (or removed from) the clock user interface 606 (e.g., the computer system 600 stops displaying complication 606m and / or other complication(s), the dial element areas 606e, 606j, 606l, and 606p (which represent time markers) occupy the same area on the clock user interface 606 as the area on the clock user interface 606. Figure 6B For example, when the complication block is not displayed in the clock user interface 606, the dial element areas 606e, 606j, 606l and / or 606p occupy the positions of the complication blocks. Figure 6B At least a portion of the area occupied by the complex functional block in.

[0266] In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the dial element area 606e, 606j, 606l, and / or 606p so that the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g do not interact with the dial element area. Thus, when the dial element area is displayed in this manner, the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g can extend to the edge of the clock user interface 606 without being blocked by the dial element area. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the dial element area 606e, 606j, 606l, and 606p so that the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g do not interact with the dial element area and stops displaying the complication 606m and other complication blocks, thereby allowing the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g to extend to the edge of the clock user interface 606, which includes at least a portion of the area previously occupied by the complication block.

[0267] Figure 6C A conceptual diagram illustrating a view of a computer system 600 and a clock user interface 606 from a side perspective is shown. The side perspective includes a background 606o and multiple simulated light sources, light source 606q and light source 606r, above an hour hand region 606c. Light sources 606q and 606r generate simulated emitted light 606b. Specifically, light source 606q has a simulated height z1 relative to background 606o, and light source 606r has a simulated height z2 relative to background 606o, where simulated height z2 is different from simulated height z1. Therefore, the simulated emitted light 606b generated by light sources 606q and 606r illuminates background 606o based on simulated heights z1 and z2, creating a realistic light scattering.

[0268] In some embodiments, light source 606q comprises (e.g., generates or emits) light of a first color, and light source 606r comprises light of a second color different from the first color. For example, light source 606q comprises green light and light source 606r comprises white light, so that simulated emitted light 606b has a more vibrant appearance because light source 606q appears closer to the user viewing clock user interface 606 and further away from background 606o. In some embodiments, light source 606q comprises white light and light source 606r comprises green light, so that simulated emitted light 606b has a lighter and brighter appearance because the white light appears closer to the user viewing clock user interface 606 and further away from background 606o.

[0269] exist Figure 6D , the second hand area 606s moves from the 30-second position (such as Figure 6C 6. As shown in FIG. 6 , the second hand region 606s advances to the 0 second position. At this position, the second hand region 606s divides the simulated emission light 606b and the simulated emission light 606g and prevents the simulated emission light 606b and the simulated emission light 606g from interacting and / or combining to form a visual effect 606k.

[0270] Second hand area 606s includes side 606t and side 606u. Side 606u is shorter than side 606t relative to a rotation point 606w of second hand area 606s at the center of clock user interface 606. Furthermore, second hand area 606s emits simulated light 606v of a different color from simulated light 606b and / or simulated light 606g around second hand area 606s. This allows the user to distinguish second hand area 606s from simulated light 606b and simulated light 606g, while simultaneously dividing and blocking simulated light 606b and simulated light 606g.

[0271] When the computer system 600 detects a predetermined condition (such as entering a low power state), the computer system 600 displays a clock user interface 606 including a visual effect 606k, such as Figure 6E When entering the low power state, clock user interface 606 stops displaying second hand region 606s, thereby allowing simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g to combine to form visual effect 606k.

[0272] Go to Figure 6F , the second hand area 606s from Figure 6DThe 0-second position shown advances to the 10-second position. At this position, second hand region 606s intersects with simulated emitted light 606b and simulated emitted light 606g. Specifically, second hand region 606s intersects with minute hand region 606h at a point near the center of clock user interface 606, at which point it blocks some or all of simulated emitted light 606g emitted by minute hand region 606h. However, second hand region 606s does not intersect with minute hand region 606h further from the center of clock user interface 606, and therefore simulated emitted light 606g is emitted from user interface 606h near the edge of clock user interface 606.

[0273] exist Figure 6G In the middle, the second hand area 606s starts from Figure 6F The 10-second position shown advances to the 50-second position. At this position, the second hand area 606s is aligned with the Figure 6F The second hand region 606s intersects the simulated emission light 606b and the simulated emission light 606g at different locations. Specifically, the second hand region 606s intersects the hour hand region 606c at a point near the center of the clock user interface 606, at which point it blocks some or all of the simulated emission light 606b emitted by the hour hand region 606c. However, the second hand region 606s does not intersect the hour hand region 606c further from the center of the clock user interface 606, and therefore the simulated emission light 606b is emitted from the user interface 606c near the edge of the clock user interface 606.

[0274] exist Figure 6H In the middle, the second hand area 606s starts from Figure 6G The 50-second position shown advances to the 11-second position. At this position, the second hand region 606s intersects with the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g between the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606g, and does not directly intersect with the hour hand region 606c or the minute hand region 606h. Therefore, the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g are not blocked when being emitted. Instead, the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g are blocked at the point between the hour hand region 606c and the minute hand region 606h to prevent the simulated emitted light 606b and the simulated emitted light 606g from mixing (e.g., combining).

[0275] Go to Figure 6I , showing the clock user interface 606 when the current time of day is 10:45. Therefore, the hour hand area 606c remains at the 10 o'clock position, while the minute hand area 606h moves from Figure 6B and Figures 6D to 6HThe 11-minute position shown advances to the 45-minute position. In this position, the clockwise edge of hour hand region 606c, which emits simulated light 606b, and the counterclockwise edge of minute hand region 606h, which emits simulated light 606g, face away from each other, causing simulated light 606b (from hour hand region 606c) and simulated light 606g (from minute hand region 606h) to illuminate each of the time markings of clock user interface 606, except for dial element region 606t. Thus, some or all of the time markings of clock user interface 606, except for dial element region 606t, are displayed. Furthermore, second hand region 606s is located between hour hand region 606c and minute hand region 606h and, therefore, does not block simulated light 606b or simulated light 606g.

[0276] exist Figure 6J In the middle, the second hand area 606s starts from Figure 6I The 45-second position and the 50-second position shown advance to the 55-second position. At this position, the second hand area 606s now intersects with the visual effect 606a and blocks the simulated emitted light 606b from the hour hand area 606c. This prevents the simulated emitted light 606b from interacting with the dial element area 606l and the dial element areas adjacent to the dial element area 606l in the counterclockwise and clockwise directions. Like this, these dial element areas are not illuminated by the simulated emitted light 606b from the hour hand area 606c and are not displayed on the clock user interface area 606. However, the simulated emitted light 606g from the minute hand area 606h is now unaffected by the second hand area 606s, and therefore the simulated emitted light 606g is naturally scattered on the clock user interface 606 that interacts with several elements of the clock user interface.

[0277] exist Figure 6K In the middle, the second hand area 606s starts from Figure 6J The 55-second position shown advances to the 20-second position. Consequently, the second hand region 606s now intersects with the visual effect 606f and blocks the simulated emitted light 606g from the minute hand region 606h. This prevents the simulated emitted light 606g from interacting with the dial element region 606j and the dial element regions immediately adjacent to the dial element region 606j clockwise. Thus, these dial element regions are not illuminated by the simulated emitted light 606g from the minute hand region 606h and are not displayed on the clock user interface region 606. However, the simulated emitted light 606b from the hour hand region 606c is now unaffected by the second hand region 606s, and thus the simulated emitted light 606b is naturally dispersed across the clock user interface 606, interacting with several elements of the clock user interface.

[0278] It will be understood from these examples that as the hour hand area 606c, minute hand area 606h, and second hand area 606s move around the clock user interface 606 corresponding to the current time, the areas of the clock user interface 606 illuminated by the simulated emission light 606b and the simulated emission light 606g will change, enabling the user to view the current time.

[0279] Figure 7 700 is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying a clock user interface including simulated emitted light using a computer system according to some embodiments. Method 700 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, or 600) in communication with a display generation component (e.g., a display controller and / or a touch-sensitive display system) and one or more input devices (e.g., a button, a rotatable input mechanism, a speaker, a camera, a motion detector (e.g., an accelerometer and / or a gyroscope) and / or a touch-sensitive surface). Some operations in method 700 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

[0280] As described below, method 700 provides an intuitive way to display a clock face including simulated emitted light. This method reduces the cognitive burden on a user viewing a clock face including simulated emitted light, thereby creating a more efficient human-computer interface. For battery-powered computing devices, enabling a user to view a clock face more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

[0281] A computer system (e.g., 600) (e.g., a smartwatch, wearable electronic device, smartphone, desktop computer, laptop computer, or tablet computer) receives (702) a request to display a clock user interface (e.g., a watch face user interface) via one or more input devices (e.g., input, a raise or rotate gesture, a tap gesture (e.g., a tap gesture on a touch-sensitive surface), a voice command, a button press, and / or a rotation of a rotatable input mechanism).

[0282] In some embodiments, the request to display the user interface is received while the display generation component is in a locked state, an inactive state, a low-power state, a sleep state, and / or a dimmed state. In some embodiments, the request to display the user interface is received while the display generation component is displaying a home screen or a pop-up user interface (e.g., a user interface including multiple optional objects for launching corresponding applications). In some embodiments, the request to display the user interface is received while the display generation component is displaying a wake screen, a lock screen, a user interface of an application (e.g., a music application, an email application, or a messaging application), and / or a user interface other than a clock face user interface. In some embodiments, the request to display the user interface is received while the display generation component is displaying a user interface (e.g., a clock face user interface) in a first state (e.g., a locked state, an inactive state, a low-power state, a sleep state, and / or a dimmed state). In some embodiments, the request to display the user interface is received while the display generation component is displaying a different clock face user interface (e.g., a clock face user interface other than a clock face user interface). Figures 6B to 6K In some embodiments, the request to display the user interface is received while the display generation component is displaying a user interface associated with the notification (e.g., a user interface that displays a summary or list of notifications and / or displays two or more notifications concurrently).

[0283] In response to receiving a request to display a clock user interface, the computer system displays (704) a clock user interface (e.g., 606) via a display generation component. Displaying the clock user interface includes concurrently displaying: a first visual effect portion (706) (e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f, and / or 606k), the first visual effect portion including simulated emitting light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the position of a first user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606h, and / or 606s) in the clock user interface (e.g., an hour hand area, an area representing an area occupied by the hour hand, and / or a boundary (e.g., an edge representing the hour hand)), wherein the position and / or shape of the first user interface area indicates the current time of day (e.g., the current hour, the current minute, and / or the current second); and a second visual effect portion (706). 08) (e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f and / or 606k) (e.g., including a visual effect (e.g., a shadow) in, as part of, and / or formed by a first visual effect portion (or simulated emitted light of the first visual effect portion), or a combination of the simulated emitted light and another simulated emitted light), the second visual effect portion being based on the simulated emitted light from the first visual effect portion and the position of the first user interface area relative to a second user interface area (e.g., a background, watch hands, complex function blocks, time indicators, and / or elements of an analog dial (e.g., hour and / or minute markings)), wherein the second user interface area is different from the first user interface area. Automatically displaying a user interface, wherein displaying the user interface includes concurrently displaying a first visual effect portion and a second visual effect portion, the first visual effect portion including simulated emitted light indicating the position of a first user interface area in a clock user interface, such that the position and / or shape of the first user interface area indicates the current time of day, and the second visual effect portion enabling the user interface to convey the current time and be displayed without requiring the user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (for example, by manually selecting which area of ​​the user interface should be illuminated by the emitted light, and / or by manually selecting where the second visual effect portion should be located to configure the user interface), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0284] In some embodiments, the clock hands are not displayed in and / or are not visible in the first user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606h, and / or 606s) (e.g., the first user interface area is the area (e.g., an empty area) that the clock hands would occupy in the clock user interface if the clock hands were displayed). In some embodiments, the first user interface area includes a border (e.g., the edge of the clock hands). In some embodiments, the first user interface area does not include the clock hands (e.g., only the border is visible due to simulated emitted light). In some embodiments, the first user interface area is dynamic (e.g., capable of moving). In some embodiments, the first user interface area has a static size, shape, and / or length (e.g., the first user interface area does not change in other ways when it is moved around in the clock user interface). In some embodiments, the first user interface area includes two borders (e.g., the two edges of the clock hands). In some embodiments, the first user interface area has different positions at different times. In some embodiments, the first user interface area represents a clock hand (e.g., an hour hand, minute hand, or second hand) that rotates around a point on the clock user interface to indicate time (e.g., the current time). In some embodiments, the first user interface area extends a predetermined distance (e.g., the length of the clock hand) from a point on the clock user interface. In some embodiments, the first user interface object has a predetermined width. In some embodiments, the first user interface area rotates with the second user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606h, and / or 606s) (e.g., a second watch hand). In some embodiments, the first user interface area spans the second user interface area (e.g., a second watch hand). In some embodiments, the first visual effect portion, e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f, and / or 606k), is based on the characteristics of the first user interface area (e.g., size, shape, length, and / or width). In some embodiments, the first visual effect portion is based on the position of the first user interface area (e.g., as the first user interface area moves around in the clock user interface). In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) appears to be emitted from the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light radiates outward from the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light radiates a predetermined distance (e.g., when a clock face with an artificial barrier such as a circle is selected). In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light appears to be emitted by a portion (e.g., one side) of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, a portion of the first user interface area does not include simulated emitted light (e.g., the dark side of the border).

[0285] In some embodiments, the position and / or shape of the second user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606e, 606h, 606j, 606l, and / or 606s) indicates the current time of day (e.g., the current hour, current minute, and / or current second). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion (e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f, and / or 606k) is based on the position of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606h, and / or 606s) relative to the position of the third user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606e, 606h, 606j, 606l, 606n, and / or 606s) (e.g., the second hand, complication block, and / or time indicator). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion is based on a characteristic of the first user interface area (e.g., position, color, shape, size, and / or brightness). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion is based on characteristics (e.g., color, shape, and / or brightness) of simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion includes emitted light that indicates the location of the second user interface area (e.g., different from the emitted light of the first visual effect portion). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion is part of the first visual effect portion (e.g., a shadow formed by a time indicator that stops the lighting effect when it hits a complex function block and / or stops the lighting effect when it intersects with the second hand). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion is based on the location of the first user interface area and the location of the second user interface area (e.g., a combination of simulated emitted light from each area). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion is based on an edge of the first user interface area (e.g., the simulation stops at the edge of the first user interface area (e.g., a watch hand)). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion is based on an edge of the second user interface area (e.g., the simulated light stops at the edge of the second user interface area (e.g., a complex function block and / or a watch hand)). In some embodiments, the emitted light of the second visual effect portion is separated from the emitted light of the first visual effect portion (e.g., separated by a third user interface area). In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion includes emitted light (e.g., different from the emitted light of the first visual effect portion) that indicates the position of the third user interface area (e.g., a second hand).

[0286] In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 600) displays a third visual effect portion (e.g., 606k) (e.g., a combination of light from a first user interface area representing a first clock hand (e.g., an hour hand) and light from a second user interface area representing a second clock hand (e.g., a minute hand)), the third visual effect portion including a combination (e.g., overlapping, merged, and / or mixed) of simulated emission light (e.g., 606b) indicating the location of the first user interface area (e.g., from the first user interface area) and other simulated emission light (e.g., 606g) (e.g., from the second user interface area). In some embodiments, the simulated emission light indicating the location of the first user interface area and the other simulated emission light are the same color. In some embodiments, the simulated emission light and the other simulated emission light are different colors. In some embodiments, the third visual effect portion includes a color that is a combination of the colors of the simulated emission light and the other simulated emission light. In some embodiments, the third visual effect portion is brighter than the simulated emission light. In some embodiments, the third visual effect portion is darker than the simulated emission light. Automatically displaying a combination of simulated emitted light indicating the location of a first user interface area and other simulated emitted light enables the display of a user interface without requiring the user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (for example, by indicating the portions of the simulated emitted light that should be combined), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0287] In some embodiments, another simulated emitted light (e.g., 606g) indicates the position of a third user interface area (e.g., 606h and / or 606s) (e.g., a second clock hand) in the clock user interface, where the position and / or shape of the third user interface area indicates the current time of day (e.g., the current hour, the current minute, and / or the current second). Displaying the simulated emitted light indicating the current time of day provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily view the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0288] In some embodiments, a second user interface area (e.g., 606e, 606h, 606j, 606l, 606n, and / or 606s) blocks simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) (e.g., simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first area and / or simulated emitted light indicating the location of one or more other areas) (e.g., the second user interface area prevents light from illuminating a portion of the user interface). In some embodiments, as the first user interface area (e.g., 606c) changes position, the amount of simulated emitted light blocked by the second user interface area changes. In some embodiments, the amount of simulated emitted light blocked by the second user interface area is based on the current time of day. In some embodiments, the second user interface area is static. In some embodiments, the second user interface area is dynamic (e.g., changes position, shape, and / or size). Automatically blocking simulated emitted light with a user interface area enables displaying a user interface without requiring a user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating the portion of simulated emitted light to be blocked by the user interface area), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0289] In some embodiments, the position and / or shape of the second user interface area (e.g., 606h and / or 606s) indicates the current time of day (e.g., is a clock hand). In some embodiments, the second user interface area blocks a larger portion of the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) at different current times of day. In some embodiments, the second user interface area blocks a smaller portion of the simulated emitted light at different times of day. In some embodiments, the second user interface area blocks the simulated emitted light along an edge of the second user interface area. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light illuminates an area of ​​the clock user interface that is not blocked by the second user interface area. Displaying a user interface area indicating the current time of day provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily view the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0290] In some embodiments, the second user interface area (e.g., 606e, 606j, 606l, 606n, and / or 606p) represents a time marker (e.g., minute or hour markers of an analog clock dial). Displaying the user interface area indicated as a time marker provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily view the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0291] In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion (e.g., 606d, 606i, and / or 606k) includes a shadow (e.g., 606m) that is based on the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) and the position of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) relative to the position of the second user interface area (e.g., 606e, 606j, 606l, and / or 606p) (e.g., a shadow formed by the simulated emitted light interacting with the time marker). In some embodiments, the second user interface area is static and the shadow moves around in the second user interface area as the position of the first user interface area changes. In some embodiments, the shadow is based on the current time of day. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light changes position based on the current time of day. In some embodiments, the shadow is a first shadow and the second visual effect portion includes a second shadow based on another simulated emitted light (e.g., from the minute hand) that indicates the position of a third user interface area (e.g., the minute hand) in the clock user interface, where the position and / or shape of the third user interface area indicates the current time of day. In some embodiments, the second shadow moves around in the second user interface area as the position of the third user interface area changes. In some embodiments, the second shadow is based on the current time of day. Automatically displaying the shadow based on the simulated emitted light and the second user interface area enables displaying the user interface without requiring the user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating the position of the second visual effect portion that should include the shadow based on the first user interface area and the second user interface area), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0292] In some embodiments, the shadow is formed based on the interaction of the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) with the time marker (e.g., 606e, 606j, 606l, and / or 606p) (e.g., when the simulated emitted light illuminates the time marker, the shadow is cast behind the time marker). In some embodiments, the shadow is cast on one side of the time marker but not the other. In some embodiments, the position of the shadow relative to the time marker changes based on the position of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) (e.g., because the simulated emitted light changes position with the current time of day). In some embodiments, the position of the shadow relative to the time marker is based on the current time of day. In some embodiments, the display of the shadow is based on the current time of day (e.g., when the current time of day causes the simulated emitted light to illuminate a portion of the clock user interface that is different from the portion of the clock user interface that includes the time marker). In some embodiments, the second shadow is formed based on the interaction of the simulated emitted light with the second time marker. In some embodiments, the first shadow and the second shadow have different positions relative to their respective time markers. Automatically displaying a shadow based on the interaction of simulated emitted light with a time marker enables a user interface to be displayed without requiring the user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating the position of the shadow based on the interaction of simulated emitted light with a time marker), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0293] In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 600) detects a selection (e.g., a selectable option) corresponding to a time marker (e.g., 606e, 606j, 606l, and / or 606p) (e.g., an option to turn the time marker on and / or off) (e.g., a tap, swipe, and / or press on a touch-sensitive surface). In some embodiments, after (e.g., in response to) detecting the selection of the option corresponding to the time marker, a second visual effect portion (e.g., 606d, 606i, and / or 606k) is displayed via a display generation component and in a clock user interface (e.g., 600), while the second visual effect portion is not based on a second user interface area (e.g., 606e, 606j, 606l, and / or 606p) (e.g., the simulated emitted light does not interact with the area of ​​the clock user interface representing the time marker). Changing the second visual effect portion after detecting the option corresponding to the time marker reduces the number of inputs required to perform the operation (e.g., by removing the time marker and the visual effect formed by the time marker in one input), thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform the operation.

[0294] In some embodiments, the plurality of areas (e.g., 606e, 606j, 606l, and / or 606p) of the clock user interface that block the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) (e.g., the number of visible time markers) is based on the position of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606h, and / or 606s) (e.g., the position of the minute hand and / or hour hand relative to the clock user interface and / or the position of the minute hand and / or hour hand relative to each other; the position at which the minute hand and / or hour hand points and / or the position at which the second hand blocks light). In some embodiments, the number of time markers illuminated by the simulated emitted light is based on the current time of day. Automatically displaying the plurality of areas of the clock user interface that block the simulated light based on the position of the first user interface area enables the user interface to be displayed without requiring the user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating the areas that should be displayed for different positions of the first user interface area), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0295] In some embodiments, the first user interface area (e.g., 606b and / or 606h) (e.g., clock hands) has the same color as the background (e.g., 606o) of the clock user interface (e.g., 600) (e.g., the watch hands and the clock background are both black). In some embodiments, the watch hands and the clock background appear to be the same unless illuminated by simulated emitted light. Displaying a user interface area that is the same color as the background of the clock user interface provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily view the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0296] In some embodiments, the second user interface area (e.g., 606b and / or 606h) (e.g., representing clock hands) has the same color as the background (e.g., 606o) of the clock user interface (e.g., 600). Displaying the second user interface area the same color as the background of the clock user interface provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily view the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0297] In some embodiments, the second user interface area includes (e.g., is) a user interface element associated with an application (e.g., 606n) (e.g., a complex function block), and the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) does not affect the visual appearance of the second user interface area. In some embodiments, a complex function block refers to any clock face feature other than hours and minutes (e.g., clock hands or hour / minute indication) used to indicate time. In some embodiments, a complex function block provides data obtained from an application. In some embodiments, a complex function block includes an enable indication that starts the corresponding application when selected. In some embodiments, the complex function block is displayed at a fixed predefined position on the display. In some embodiments, the complex function block occupies a corresponding position at a specific area of ​​the clock face (e.g., lower right, lower left, upper right and / or upper left). In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light stops before reaching the second user interface area, and / or the simulated emitted light does not affect the visual appearance of the second user interface area (e.g., the simulated emitted light reaches the second user interface area but does not affect the visual appearance of the second user interface area). Displaying user interface elements associated with applications that are not affected by the visual appearance of the second user interface area provides visual feedback about applications of the electronic device and helps the user quickly and easily view information from applications of the user device, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0298] In some embodiments, based on the current time being a first time, the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) has a first position (e.g., Figure 6B 606c and / or 606h in (e.g., displaying the first user interface area at a first location at a first time of the day); and based on the current time being a second time, the first user interface area has a second location (e.g., Figure 6I Displaying the first user interface area at a first location at a first time and at a second location at a second time provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily view the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0299] In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) is emitted from a first edge (e.g., a clockwise edge relative to a clock face) of a first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) rather than from a second edge (e.g., a counterclockwise edge relative to a clock face) of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the first edge and the second edge are on opposite sides of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light is emitted from the second edge (e.g., a counterclockwise edge relative to a clock face) of the first user interface area rather than from the first edge (e.g., a clockwise edge relative to a clock face) of the first user interface area. Displaying the simulated emitted light from the first edge of the first user interface area rather than from the second edge of the first user interface area enables displaying the user interface without requiring the user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating which portion of the user interface is illuminated by the simulated emitted light), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0300] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the first edge of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) is curved. In some embodiments, the curved portion of the first edge of the first user interface area represents an endpoint of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the portion of the first edge is the entire first edge of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, a portion of the second edge of the first user interface area is curved. In some embodiments, a portion of the first edge of the first user interface area and a portion of the second edge of the first user interface area are curved. In some embodiments, a portion of the first edge of the second user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) is curved. In some embodiments, a portion of the second edge of the second user interface area is curved. In some embodiments, a portion of the first edge of the second user interface area and a portion of the second edge of the second user interface area are curved. Displaying a portion of the first edge of the first user interface area as curved provides visual feedback about the user interface and helps users quickly and easily distinguish elements of the user interface, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0301] In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) has (e.g., appears to be emitted from a source having) a simulated height (e.g., a height in a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the surface of the device display) relative to a background (e.g., 606o) of the clock user interface (e.g., 606) (e.g., the simulated emitted light is emitted from a source that is displaced from the background in a direction normal to the surface defining the background) and illuminates (e.g., projects light onto) the background of the clock user interface. Displaying the simulated emitted light at the simulated height relative to the background of the clock user interface to illuminate the background of the clock user interface enables displaying the user interface without requiring a user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating how the simulated emitted light should be dispersed over the background of the clock user interface), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0302] In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) is based on a first simulated light source (e.g., 606q and / or 606r) and a second simulated light source (e.g., 606q and / or 606r). Displaying the simulated emitted light based on the first simulated light source and the second simulated light source enables displaying a user interface without requiring a user to provide multiple inputs to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating how the simulated emitted light should be dispersed based on different simulated light sources), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0303] In some embodiments, a first simulated light source (e.g., 606q and / or 606r) that simulates emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) has a first simulated height relative to a background (e.g., 606o) of a clock user interface (e.g., 606) (e.g., the first simulated light source is displaced from the background in a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to a surface defining the background), and a second simulated light source (e.g., 606q and / or 606r) that simulates emitted light has a second simulated height relative to the background of the clock user interface that is different from the first simulated height (e.g., the second simulated light source is displaced from the background in a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to a surface defining the background). Displaying the simulated emitted light with two different simulated light sources having two different simulated heights relative to the background of the clock user interface enables displaying the user interface without requiring the user to provide additional input to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating how the simulated emitted light should be dispersed based on the different simulated light sources), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0304] In some embodiments, a first simulated light source (e.g., 606q and / or 606r) that simulates emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) includes (e.g., produces or emits) light of a first color, and a second simulated light source (e.g., 606q and / or 606r) that simulates emitted light includes (e.g., produces or emits) light of a second color that is different from the first color. In some embodiments, the first simulated light source does not include light of the second color. In some embodiments, the second simulated light source does not include light of the first color. In some embodiments, the first color and the second color are the same color. Displaying simulated emitted light with two different simulated light sources having two different colors enables displaying a user interface without requiring a user to provide multiple inputs to configure the user interface (e.g., by indicating a dispersion of each color of the simulated emitted light), thereby performing an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.

[0305] In some embodiments, the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) includes one or more cutouts (e.g., 606z) (e.g., a border with sharp angles, such as a cutout, vertex, and / or corner point in a clock hand). In some embodiments, the first user interface area includes a border with sharp angles (e.g., a cutout, vertex, and / or corner point in a clock hand). In some embodiments, the cutout causes a sharp angle in simulated emitted light (e.g., light emitted in different directions). In some embodiments, the border has a radius of curvature and / or an angle. In some embodiments, the angle is 45 degrees, 90 degrees, or 135 degrees. In some embodiments, the radius includes a gradual change in direction of the border or edge of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the cutout includes a sharp change in direction at a certain angle. In some embodiments, the cutout is at a first point on the first user interface area (e.g., one end of a watch hand). In some embodiments, the first point on the first user interface area is near the center of the clock user interface (e.g., the point around which the clock hand rotates or from which the clock hand extends). In some embodiments, the first point on the first user interface is near an edge of the clock user interface (e.g., the point where the clock hands end). In some embodiments, the cutout is at a second point on the first user interface area that is different from the first point on the first user interface area. In some embodiments, there is a first cutout at the first point and a second cutout at the second point (e.g., the two ends of the clock hands have sharp angles). Displaying the first user interface area with the cutout provides visual feedback about the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish elements of the user interface, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0306] In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 600) detects a request (e.g., a tap, swipe, and / or press on a touch-sensitive surface) to change the color of the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) (e.g., from a first color to a second color, from red and / or green to white and / or gray). In some embodiments, after (e.g., in response to) detecting the request to change the color of the simulated emitted light, based on determining that the request corresponds to a first color (e.g., red, green, white, and / or gray), the computer system displays the simulated emitted light in the first color (e.g., using a simulated light source of the first color), and based on determining that the request corresponds to a second color different from the first color (e.g., red, green, white, and / or gray), the computer system displays the simulated light in the second color (e.g., using a simulated light source of the second color). In some embodiments, the request to change the color of the simulated emitted light is provided in a settings user interface associated with the clock user interface. Changing the color of the simulated emitted light based on determining that the request corresponds to a color enables the user to easily and intuitively edit the color of the simulated emitted light, thereby providing improved control options.

[0307] In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 600) displays a clock user interface (e.g., 606) by displaying (e.g., concurrently with the first visual effect portion and / or the second visual effect portion) via a display generation component a third visual effect portion (e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f, and / or 606k) that includes simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) (e.g., light from the second clock hand) that indicates the position of a second user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) (e.g., a second clock hand). In some embodiments, the third visual effect portion is the second visual effect portion (e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f, and / or 606k). In some embodiments, the third visual effect portion interacts with (e.g., affects or changes) the first visual effect portion (e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f and / or 606k) and the second visual effect portion (e.g., the second emitted light is combined with the first emitted light). In some embodiments, the third visual effect portion does not interact with the first visual effect portion (e.g., when the simulated emitted light is not in contact because they are relative to each other and / or the second pointer divides the simulated emitted light). Displaying the third visual effect portion including the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the second user interface area provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily view the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0308] In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the location of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) includes (e.g., is) a first color, and the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the location of the second user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) includes (e.g., is) a second color different from the first color. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the second user interface area include (e.g., are) the same color. In some embodiments, the second visual effect portion includes simulated emitted light of the same color as the simulated emitted light of the first visual effect portion. Displaying the first simulated emitted light in the first color and displaying the second simulated emitted light provide visual feedback that distinguishes different portions of the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish between portions of the user interface that indicate different times of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0309] In some embodiments, simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the position of a first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) is emitted from an edge of the first user interface area (e.g., the hour hand) (e.g., a clockwise edge relative to a clock face), and simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the position of a second user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) is emitted from an edge of the second user interface area (e.g., the minute hand) (e.g., a counterclockwise edge relative to a clock face), where the edge of the first user interface area is opposite to the edge of the second user interface area relative to the clock user interface (e.g., a clockwise direction of the clock user interface). In some embodiments, the edge of the first user interface area faces clockwise and the edge of the second user interface area faces counterclockwise. In some embodiments, the edge of the first user interface area faces counterclockwise and the edge of the second user interface area faces clockwise. The simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area is emitted from an edge of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the second user interface area is emitted from an edge of the second user interface area, wherein the edge of the first user interface area is opposite to the edge of the second user interface area relative to the clock user interface, which provides visual feedback that distinguishes different parts of the user interface, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0310] In some embodiments, the first user interface area (e.g., Figure 6B 606c and / or 606h) face the second user interface area (eg, Figure 6B606c and / or 606h in FIG10A and 10B (e.g., when the clockwise edge of the hour hand faces the counterclockwise edge of the minute hand (e.g., 10:10, 1:30, 6:45, and / or 9:30) and / or when the counterclockwise edge of the hour hand faces the clockwise edge of the minute hand (e.g., 1:50, 11:45, and / or 4:10)). Displaying the edge of the first user interface area facing the edge of the second user interface area provides visual feedback that distinguishes different portions of the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish portions of the user interface that indicate different times of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0311] In some embodiments, an edge of the first user interface area (e.g., Figure 6H 606c and / or 606h) away from the edge of the second user interface area (eg, Figure 6H 606c and / or 606h in (e.g., when the clockwise edge of the hour hand faces away from the counterclockwise edge of the minute hand (e.g., 1:55, 10:45, and / or 3:10) and / or when the counterclockwise edge of the hour hand faces away from the clockwise edge of the minute hand (e.g., 11:10, 2:30, 7:45, and / or 8:30)). Displaying the edge of the first user interface area facing away from the edge of the second user interface area provides visual feedback that distinguishes different portions of the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish portions of the user interface that indicate different times of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0312] In some embodiments, the first user interface area (e.g., Figure 6H 606c and / or 606h) and the edge of the second user interface area (eg, Figure 6H In some embodiments, based on determining that the current time of day is a first time of day, the edge of the first user interface area faces the edge of the second user interface area; and based on determining that the current time of day is a second time of day that is different from the first time of day, the edge of the first user interface area faces away from the edge of the second user interface area. Displaying the position of the edge of the first user interface area and the edge of the second user interface area based on the current time of day provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user quickly and easily determine the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0313] In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 600) displays simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the position of a first user interface area and simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the position of a third user interface area (e.g., second hand, minute hand), such that the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area are divided (e.g., separated from each other, blocked from interacting with each other, mixed and / or combined) by a fourth user interface area (e.g., 606s) (e.g., which represents a second hand), wherein the position and / or shape of the fourth user interface area indicates the current time of day. In some embodiments, the position of the fourth user interface area is based on the current time of day (e.g., Figure 6D 606s and Figure 6F Displaying simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area, such that the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area are divided by a fourth user interface area, wherein the position and / or shape of the fourth user interface area indicates the current time of day, provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user to quickly and easily determine the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0314] In some embodiments, a fourth user interface area (e.g., 606s) (e.g., a second hand) includes a first side (e.g., 606t) (e.g., a long side) and a second side (e.g., 606u) (e.g., a short side) that is shorter than the first side relative to a rotation point (e.g., 606w) on the fourth user interface area (e.g., the fourth user interface area is a line passing through a point on the clock user interface, and the fourth user interface area has a long side on one side of the point and a short side on the other side of the point). Displaying a fourth user interface area having a first side and a second side that is shorter than the first side relative to the rotation point on the fourth user interface area provides visual feedback that distinguishes different portions of the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish between portions of the user interface that indicate different times of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0315] In some embodiments, a fourth user interface area (e.g., Figure 6DIn some embodiments, the fourth user interface area stops the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the position of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) from mixing (e.g., blocking and / or stopping the interaction) with the simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the position of the third user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h). In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area stops the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area from interacting with the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area. In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area stops the simulated light indicating the position of the first user interface area from interacting with other elements of the clock user interface (e.g., the first user interface area, the second user interface area, and / or the third user interface area). In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area stops the simulated light indicating the position of the third user interface area from interacting with other elements of the clock user interface (e.g., the first user interface area and / or the second user interface area). Displaying the fourth user interface area so that it blocks the mixing of the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the third user interface area provides visual feedback that distinguishes different parts of the user interface and helps the user to quickly and easily distinguish between the parts of the user interface that indicate different times of the day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0316] In some embodiments, in response to determining that a predetermined condition is met (e.g., entering a low power state, selecting to remove the second hand, and / or a specific amount of time has passed), the computer system (e.g., 600) displays simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the location of the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) and simulated emitted light (e.g., 606b and / or 606g) indicating the location of the third user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h), such that the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area is mixed (e.g., combined and / or interacts) with the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the third user interface area. In some embodiments, the mixing of the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the third user interface area is based on the location of the first user interface area and the location of the third user interface area. In some embodiments, the mixing of the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the third user interface area is based on the color of the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area and the color of the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the third user interface area. In some embodiments, the mix of the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area is based on the second user interface area (e.g., 606c, 606d, 606h, 606j, 606l, 606p) (e.g., blocked by one or more elements of the clock user interface). In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area are displayed in black and white. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area change color (e.g., from red / green to white) in response to determining that a predetermined condition is met. In some embodiments, the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area change brightness in response to determining that a predetermined condition is met. Simulated emitted light indicating the position of a first user interface area and simulated emitted light indicating the position of a third user interface area are displayed, so that in response to determining that a predetermined condition is met, the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area is mixed with the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area, which provides visual feedback for distinguishing different parts of the user interface in specific situations and helps users quickly and easily distinguish between parts of the user interface indicating different times of the day when the condition is met, thereby providing improved feedback to users.

[0317] In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) displays (e.g., concurrently with the first visual effect portion and / or the second visual effect portion) a third simulated emitted light (e.g., light of a second hand) that indicates the position and / or size of the rotation point of one or more of the user interface areas (e.g., 606c, 606h, and / or 606s) (e.g., the hour hand, minute hand, and / or second hand). In some embodiments, the third simulated emitted light is mixed (e.g., merged and / or interacts) with the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and / or the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area (e.g., where the light from the second hand is merged with the light from the hour hand and the light from the minute hand). In some embodiments, the third simulated emitted light is not as bright as the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area and / or the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area. Displaying the third simulated emitted light indicating the position and / or size of the rotation point of the fourth user interface area provides visual feedback that distinguishes different portions of the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish between portions of the user interface that indicate different times of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0318] In some embodiments, based on determining that the current time of day is the first time of day, the fourth user interface area (e.g., Figure 6F 606s) has a first position (e.g., the fourth user interface area is displayed in a first position at a first time of the day); and based on determining that the current time of the day is a second time of the day that is different from the first time of the day, the fourth user interface area (e.g., Figure 6G606S) has a second position (e.g., a third user interface area is displayed at the second position at a second time of day), wherein the fourth user interface area overlaps the first visual effect portion (e.g., 606a, 606d, 606i, 606f and / or 606k) less at the second position than at the first position (e.g., the intersection of the fourth user interface area with the first visual effect portion results in less simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area (e.g., the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the first user interface area illuminates more of the background and / or the first visual effect portion is larger)). In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area overlaps the first visual effect portion more at the second position than at the first position (e.g., the intersection of the fourth user interface area with the first visual effect portion causes the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area to be more (e.g., the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the first user interface area illuminates less of the background and / or the first visual effect portion is smaller). In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area overlaps the second visual effect portion less at the second position than at the first position (e.g., the intersection of the fourth user interface area with the second visual effect portion causes the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area to be blocked less (e.g., the simulated emitted light indicating the position of the third user interface area illuminates more of the background and / or the second visual effect portion is smaller). The visual effect portion is larger). In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area overlaps the second visual effect portion more at the second position than at the first position (e.g., the intersection of the fourth user interface area and the second visual effect portion causes the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the third user interface area to be blocked more (e.g., the simulated emitted light indicating the location of the third user interface area illuminates less of the background and / or the second visual effect portion is smaller). Displaying the fourth user interface area at different positions at different times of the day, where the fourth user interface area overlaps the first visual effect portion less at the second position than at the first position, provides visual feedback about the time of day and helps the user to quickly and easily determine the current time of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0319] In some embodiments, the first user interface area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) has a first point (e.g., near the rotation point of the first user interface area and / or near the center of the clock user interface) and a second point (e.g., away from the rotation point of the first user interface area, away from the center of the clock user interface, and / or near an edge of the clock user interface), and wherein the fourth user interface area (e.g., 606s) blocks (e.g., interacts with, obstructs, and / or stops) more light at the first point of the first user interface area than at the second point of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the first point is at the bottom of the first user interface area (e.g., near the rotation point of the first user interface area and / or near the center of the clock user interface), and the second point is at the top of the first user interface area (e.g., away from the rotation point of the first user interface area, away from the center of the clock user interface, and / or near an edge of the clock user interface). In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area blocks more light at the second point of the first user interface area and blocks less light at the first point of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the second user area (e.g., 606c and / or 606h) has a first point and a second point, and the fourth user interface area blocks more light at the first point of the first user interface area and blocks less light at the second point of the first user interface area. In some embodiments, the first point is at the bottom of the second user interface area (e.g., near the rotation point of the first user interface area and / or near the center of the clock user interface), and the second point is at the top of the second user interface area (e.g., away from the rotation point of the first user interface area, away from the center of the clock user interface, and / or near the edge of the clock user interface). In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area blocks more light at the second point of the second user interface area and blocks less light at the first point of the second user interface area. Displaying that the fourth user interface area blocks more light at the first point of the first user interface area than at the second point of the first user interface area provides visual feedback that distinguishes different portions of the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish between portions of the user interface that indicate different times of day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0320] In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area (e.g., 606s) includes (e.g., is) a third color that is different from the first color and / or the second color. In some embodiments, the fourth user interface area is the same color as the simulated emitted light that indicates the position and / or size of the rotation point of the third or fourth user interface area (e.g., the second hand). Displaying the fourth user interface area in a third color that is different from the first color and / or the second color provides visual feedback that distinguishes different parts of the user interface and helps the user quickly and easily distinguish between parts of the user interface that indicate different times of the day, thereby providing improved feedback to the user.

[0321] It should be noted that the process described above with respect to method 700 (e.g. Figure 7 ) also apply in a similar manner to the methods described below. For example, methods 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700, and 1900 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 700. For example, method 700 optionally includes one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described below with reference to method 900. For example, Figures 6A to 6K The simulated light effects described may optionally be included in the reference 8A to 8T The method 700 may include one or more of the features of the various methods described below with reference to method 1100. For example, the time indicator of method 700 may include an adjustable time indicator as described in method 1100. For example, the method 700 may include one or more of the features of the various methods described below with reference to method 1300. Figures 6A to 6K The clock user interface 606 of the embodiment optionally includes multiple calendar systems as described in method 1300. As another example, method 700 optionally includes one or more of the features of the various methods described below with reference to method 1500. For example, the clock user interface 606 may optionally include numbers that interact with each other as described in method 1500. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated below.

[0322] 8A to 8T An example clock user interface including astronomical objects according to various examples is illustrated. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including Figure 9 in the process.

[0323] Figure 8AA computer system 800 (e.g., a smartwatch) is illustrated having a display 802. The computer system 800 includes a rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804. In some embodiments, the computer system 800 includes one or more features of the device 100, the device 300, and / or the device 500. In some embodiments, the computer system 800 is a tablet, a phone, a laptop, a desktop computer, and / or a camera. In some embodiments, the inputs described below can be replaced with alternative inputs, such as press inputs and / or rotation inputs received via the rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804.

[0324] exist Figure 8A , the computer system 800 displays the clock user interface 806. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input, such as a tap input, a wrist raise input, a press input received via the rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804, and / or a rotation input received via the rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804, the computer system 800 displays the clock user interface 806.

[0325] In some embodiments, the clock user interface 806 is displayed on a tablet computer, phone (e.g., a smartphone), laptop computer, and / or desktop computer. In some embodiments, the clock user interface 806 is displayed on the home screen, lock screen, and / or wake screen of the tablet computer, phone, laptop computer, and / or desktop computer.

[0326] The clock user interface 806 includes an astronomical object (e.g., Earth) 806a, a digital time indication 806b, and selectable user interface elements 806c. In response to predetermined events such as user input and / or a change in the operating mode of the computer system 800, the clock user interface 806 displays different portions, clips, and / or views of the astronomical object 806a (or other astronomical objects as described below). Figure 8A , a first portion of an astronomical object 806a is displayed in the clock user interface 806. The astronomical object 806a partially overlaps (e.g., obscures) a portion of (e.g., blurs) a portion of a time digital indication 806b, thereby creating a depth effect between the astronomical object 806a and other aspects of the clock user interface 806, including the time digital indication 806b and the selectable user interface element 806c.

[0327] Astronomical object 806a includes a representation of Earth, including continents, oceans, and clouds. Specifically, astronomical object 806a includes clouds 806d that are optionally displayed based on current weather data. Thus, clouds 806d can be realistic and mimic the cloud pattern (e.g., cloud cover) of the current location of computer system 800 to form a more realistic view of Earth. In some embodiments, the pattern of clouds 806d changes in response to detecting a change in the current weather at the current location of computer system 800. In addition to including clouds 806d, astronomical object 806a also includes accurate representations of the shadows of clouds 806d displayed on the land and oceans of astronomical object 806a.

[0328] As discussed further below, in some embodiments, when a predetermined event is detected, the portion or view of the astronomical object 806a displayed in the clock user interface 806 changes, but each portion of the view of the astronomical object 806a includes the current location of the computer system 800. Thus, the portion or view of the astronomical object 806a displayed in the clock user interface 806 changes. Figure 8A The portion of the astronomical object 806a in includes the land or other location of the computer system 800 at the current time (e.g., 10:09). In addition, the portion of the astronomical object 806a that is covered by sunlight and the portion of the astronomical object 806a that is not covered by sunlight reflect the portion of the Earth that is covered by sunlight at the current time. Therefore, in Figure 8A , the current location of computer system 800 is included in the portion of astronomical object 806a and appears to be covered by sunlight because it is currently daytime at the current location of computer system 800.

[0329] Optional user interface element 806c is associated with a calendar application and includes the current day of the week and the current date of the month. In some embodiments, in response to detecting user input (e.g., a tap, press, and / or swipe) on optional user interface element 806c, computer system 800 displays the user interface of the associated calendar application. In some embodiments, optional user interface element 806c (e.g., a complication) is associated with an application other than the calendar application. In some embodiments, the complication displayed as optional user interface element 806c is selected by the user so that the user can quickly access information from an application associated with the user.

[0330] After detecting a predetermined event such as a tap, wrist movement, or other user input, the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 having a second portion of an astronomical object 806a, as shown in FIG. Figure 8B The second portion of the astronomical object 806a is different from the digital time indication 806b. Figure 8A The first portion of the astronomical object 806a displayed in FIG. 806a partially overlaps, resulting in a different depth effect between the second portion of the astronomical object 806a and the digital time indication 806b.

[0331] Similar to Figure 8A 806a, and a second portion of the astronomical object 806a includes the current location of the computer system 800 and indicates that the current location of the computer system 800 is covered by sunlight because it is daytime at the current location of the computer system 800. In addition, the second portion of the astronomical object 806a optionally includes realistic clouds 806d based on current weather data. However, because the second portion of the astronomical object 806a includes the astronomical object 806a from a different angle, the cloud cover in the second portion of the astronomical object 806a appears different from the cloud cover in the first portion of the astronomical object 806a.

[0332] After detecting another predetermined event, the computer system 800 displays the clock user interface 806 with a third portion of the astronomical object 806a, as shown in FIG. Figure 8C The third portion of the astronomical object 806a shows the astronomical object 806a and Figure 8A and Figure 8B Compared to a different view or angle. Specifically, the third portion of the astronomical object 806a is a view of the astronomical object 806a in which the entire astronomical object 806a is located in a field of view that is opposite to a field of view that includes less than the entire astronomical object 806a. Similar to the first and second portions of the astronomical object 806a, the third portion of the astronomical object 806a includes the current location of the computer system 800 and indicates that the current location of the computer system 800 is covered by sunlight, even though the view of the astronomical object 806a is different.

[0333] Additionally, a third portion of the astronomical object 806a is displayed behind the digital time indication 806b and the selectable user interface element 806c, resulting in a Figure 8A and Figure 8B However, unlike the depth effect shown in Figure 8A and Figure 8B Likewise, the clock user interface 806 optionally includes realistic clouds 806d based on the current weather pattern at the current location of the computer system 800. Thus, the clouds 806d will change as the weather at the current location of the computer system 800 changes.

[0334] In some embodiments, the portions of the astronomical object 806a displayed in the clock user interface 806 are predetermined. For example, the different portions of the astronomical object 806a may have a predetermined order, and thus, as the portions of the astronomical object 806a cycle, the portions may be rotated. Figure 8A 、 Figure 8B and Figure 8C Display in the order shown.

[0335] In some embodiments, the portion of the astronomical object 806a is randomly or pseudo-randomly selected. For example, the computer system 800 may obtain eight different portions (or views) of the astronomical object 806a and, upon detecting a predetermined event, may randomly select one of the eight different portions. As another example, one of the eight different portions may be selected while ensuring that the same portion is not repeated to provide a pseudo-random selection of the portion of the astronomical object 806a displayed in response to detecting a predetermined event.

[0336] After detecting another predetermined event (eg, the same predetermined event as described above or a different predetermined event), the computer system 800 displays the clock user interface 806 having a fourth portion of the astronomical object 806a, as shown in FIG. Figure 8D The fourth portion of the astronomical object 806a shows the astronomical object 806a and Figure 8A 、 Figure 8B and Figure 8C Like the other portions of the astronomical object 806a, the fourth portion of the astronomical object 806a includes the current location of the computer system 800 and indicates that the current location of the computer system 800 is in sunlight, even though the view of the astronomical object 806a is different.

[0337] Additionally, a fourth portion of the astronomical object 806a is displayed below (and does not overlap) the digital time indication 806b and the selectable user interface element 806c, resulting in the clock user interface 806 being displayed without any depth effect between the astronomical object 806a, the digital time indication 806b, and the selectable user interface element 806c. Thus, the spatial relationship between the astronomical object 806a, the digital time indication 806b, and the selectable user interface element 806c displayed on the computer system 800 is based on the view of the astronomical object 806a being displayed.

[0338] Furthermore, as with the other portions of the astronomical object 806a, the fourth portion of the astronomical object 806a optionally includes realistic clouds 806d based on current weather patterns at the current location of the computer system 800.

[0339] In the display Figure 8D When the clock user interface 806 is displayed, the computer system 800 detects a user input 808 of rotating the rotatable input mechanism 804 (which is optionally also depressible). After detecting the user input 808 of rotating the rotatable input mechanism 804, the computer system 800 displays the clock user interface 806 including the third portion of the astronomical object 806a, as shown in FIG. Figure 8E806a at a time other than the current time (e.g., a time in the past or future). Thus, in response to detecting the user input 808, the computer system 800 displays a third portion of the astronomical object 806a to provide a complete view of the astronomical object 806a at the current time prior to displaying the astronomical object 806a at a different time.

[0340] After (eg, in response to) detecting further clockwise rotation of the rotatable input mechanism 804, the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 including a view of the astronomical object 806a three hours before the current time, as shown in FIG. Figure 8F As shown. Computer system 800 changes the time by an amount and direction (e.g., to the past or future) based on the amount and / or direction of the user input. Thus, user input 808 rotates rotatable input mechanism 804 by an amount and in a direction that causes clock user interface 806 to be displayed three hours in the future. Clock user interface 806 updates astronomical object 806a to reflect the appearance of astronomical object 806a at the time of 1:09 PM, while maintaining a view of astronomical object 806a that includes the current location of computer system 800.

[0341] Furthermore, in addition to updating the appearance of astronomical object 806a, computer system 800 ceases displaying digital time indication 806b and selectable user interface element 806c and displays updated time 806h and offset 806i, both indicating that clock user interface 806 is displaying Earth three hours in the future.

[0342] Updating astronomical object 806a includes displaying astronomical object 806a with updated clouds 806d. Updated clouds 806d are determined based on a predicted weather pattern, including a predicted weather pattern in the current location of computer system 800. When user input 808 is detected, astronomical object 806a is incrementally updated, and clouds 806d are updated accordingly. Thus, as rotatable input mechanism 804 is rotated, clouds 806d appear to move as they are predicted to move over the next three hours. Similarly, the amount or area of ​​astronomical object 806a covered by sunlight is updated to indicate that the Earth rotates over time, and therefore different portions of the Earth are covered by sunlight at different times of the day.

[0343] In some embodiments, instead of displaying updated clouds 806d, the computer system 800 stops displaying clouds 806d in the clock user interface 806. In some embodiments, instead of displaying or attempting to display realistic clouds based on future weather information, the computer system 800 updates the astronomical object 806a to include a generic cloud overlay that is not indicative of current or future weather for the current location of the computer system 800.

[0344] In some embodiments, the difference between the current time and the time displayed when the astronomical object 806a is updated is proportional to the rotation of the user input 808. Thus, to increase the time by 3 hours from the current time, as shown in FIG. Figure 8F As shown, a certain amount of rotation must be applied via user input 808 , and to increase the time by 6 hours from the current time, twice the rotation is applied via user input 808 .

[0345] After detecting further clockwise rotation of the rotatable input mechanism 804, the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 including a view of an astronomical object 806a six hours before the current time, as shown in FIG. Figure 8G As shown above. Figure 8F As discussed, astronomical object 806a is updated to reflect the displayed time of day (e.g., 4:09 PM), and thus the amount of sunlight coverage of cloud 806d and astronomical object 806a is updated to reflect the conditions expected to occur at 4:09 PM. Additionally, updated time 806h and offset 806i are both updated to reflect the displayed time of 4:09 PM.

[0346] After (eg, in response to) detecting a counterclockwise rotation of the rotatable input mechanism 804, the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 including a view of an astronomical object 806a two hours after the current time, as shown in FIG. Figure 8H As shown above. Figure 8F As discussed, the previously displayed time (e.g., 4:09 PM) is different from Figure 8H 8:09 AM) is proportional to the amount of rotation applied by user input 808. Additionally, astronomical object 806a is updated to reflect the displayed time of day. However, unlike when astronomical object 806a is updated to display a future time and the predicted cloud and weather patterns are used to display clouds 806d, when a past time is displayed, the cloud and weather patterns for that earlier time are used to display clouds 806d. Similarly, the amount of sunlight (or cloud cover) at the current location of computer system 800 at the displayed time is also used to update astronomical object 806a. Furthermore, both updated time 806h and offset 806i are updated to reflect the time shown at 8:09 AM.

[0347] In some embodiments, after detecting a predetermined event, the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 including a first portion of an astronomical object 806f (e.g., the moon), a digital time indication 806b, selectable user interface elements 806c, and a star map 806j, as shown in FIG. Figure 8I In some embodiments, the astronomical object 806f is selected from a list of possible astronomical objects. In some embodiments, the predetermined event is a user input, such as a tap gesture, a press, a swipe, a wrist raise, and / or a rotation of the rotatable input mechanism 804.

[0348] In some embodiments, the astronomical object 806f (or another astronomical object as discussed further below) is selected by the user when displayed on the Figure 8T 806f.

[0349] In some embodiments, the astronomical object 806f and / or the displayed portion of the astronomical object 806f is randomly or pseudo-randomly selected. For example, the computer system 800 may randomly select to display the moon, select a portion of the moon from available portions of the moon, and update the clock user interface 806 with the selected portion in response to detecting a predetermined event. In some embodiments, the selection of astronomical objects may be limited to a specific (e.g., one) astronomical object, and the computer system 800 selects the portion of the selected astronomical object accordingly. In some embodiments, the astronomical object may be selected from a group of two or more available astronomical objects including the Earth, the moon, and a solar system diagram, as discussed further below.

[0350] A first portion of astronomical object 806f is covered by a portion of digital time indicator 806b, thereby creating a depth effect between astronomical object 806f and digital time indicator 806b in clock user interface 806. Astronomical object 806f also includes a realistic view of the moon based on its current phase and its position relative to Earth. Thus, the shadow displayed as part of astronomical object 806f is based on the current phase of the moon.

[0351] Star map 806j optionally includes a realistic representation of the night sky as seen from the current location of computer system 800. Thus, star map 806j will change as the location of computer system 800 changes and will be updated to reflect the current location.

[0352] After (e.g., in response to) detecting a predetermined event (e.g., the same predetermined event as described above or a different predetermined event) such as a user input, the computer system 800 displays the clock user interface 806 including a second portion of the astronomical object 806f, as shown in FIG. Figure 8J As shown. A second portion of the astronomical object 806f covers a different portion of the digital time indication 806b, thereby forming a Figure 8I 806 m. However, like the first portion 806 f of the astronomical object, the second portion 806 f of the astronomical object is based on the current lunar phase and therefore includes a realistic representation of the moon. In some embodiments, the computer system 800 displays the current Gregorian date 806 l and the current lunar phase 806 m.

[0353] After (eg, in response to) detecting user input 808 of rotating the rotatable input mechanism 804, the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 including a third portion of the astronomical object 806f, as shown in FIG. Figure 8K 806f. The computer system 800 may further display the astronomical object 806f at a different time than the current time (e.g., a time in the past and / or future). When the user input 808 is detected, the computer system 800 displays a third portion of the astronomical object 806f to provide a field of view that includes the entire astronomical object 806f at the current time before the astronomical object 806f is displayed at a different time.

[0354] exist Figure 8K , computer system 800 displays the current lunar date 806k, the current moon phase 806m, and the current solar date 806l to illustrate the relationship between the lunar date, the solar date, and the current moon phase. Similar to the first and second portions of astronomical object 806f, the third portion of astronomical object 806f is based on the current moon phase and thus includes a realistic representation of the portion of astronomical object 806f that is not covered by sunlight.

[0355] exist Figure 8K In, with Figure 8J In contrast, computer system 800 displays a different representation of star map 806j. Specifically, star map 806j is updated to reflect the view of the star map when viewing a field of view that includes the entire Moon from the current location of computer system 800. Thus, star map 806j is updated to reflect the currently displayed portion of astronomical object 806f, while still using the current location of computer system 800 as a reference point.

[0356] After (e.g., in response to) detecting user input 808 to rotate the rotatable input mechanism 804 in a clockwise direction, the computer system 800 updates the clock user interface 806 to display astronomical objects 806f for a number of days in the future that are proportional to the amount of rotation provided by the user input 808, e.g., Figure 8L As shown. Therefore, the computer system 800 updates the clock user interface 806 to display the updated solar and lunar dates three days from the current day. The computer system 800 also updates the clock user interface 806 to include the astronomical object 806f, as it will appear three days in the future. The astronomical object 806f is displayed along with the crescent moon phase corresponding to the selected date. Figure 8L , the computer system 800 displays moon phases 806m including moon phases for the next three days.

[0357] After (e.g., in response to) detecting user input 808 to further rotate the rotatable input mechanism 804 in the clockwise direction, the computer system 800 updates the clock user interface 806 to display astronomical objects 806f for a number of days in the future that are proportional to the amount of rotation provided by the user input 808, e.g., Figure 8M As shown. Computer system 800 therefore updates clock user interface 806 to display the updated solar and lunar dates six days in the future from the current day. Computer system 800 also updates clock user interface 806 to include astronomical object 806f, as it will appear six days in the future. Astronomical object 806f is displayed along with the waxing moon phase corresponding to the selected date. Moon phase 806m is further updated to "waxing moon," which is the moon phase that will appear six days in the future from the current day.

[0358] After (e.g., in response to) detecting user input 808 to rotate the rotatable input mechanism 804 in a counterclockwise direction, the computer system 800 updates the clock user interface 806 to display astronomical objects 806f for a number of days in the past that are proportional to the amount of rotation provided by the user input 808, e.g., Figure 8N As shown. Computer system 800 therefore updates clock user interface 806 to display the updated solar and lunar dates four days prior to the current day. Computer system 800 also updates clock user interface 806 to include astronomical object 806f, as it occurred four days prior. Astronomical object 806f is displayed along with the waning moon phase corresponding to the selected date. Moon phase 806m is further updated to "waning moon," which is the moon phase that occurred four days prior to the current day.

[0359] After (eg, in response to) detecting a predetermined event (eg, the same predetermined event as described above or a different predetermined event), the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 including an astronomical object 806g, such as Figure 8OAstronomical object 806g is a representation of the solar system (eg, a solar system diagram), and more specifically, a representation of a portion of the solar system that includes the Earth. Figure 8O The first portion of astronomical objects 806g is shown including Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. As discussed further below, when astronomical object 806g is selected and / or chosen for display in clock user interface 806, different views and / or portions of the solar system may be shown. The clock user interface includes a digital time indication 806b and a selectable user interface element 806c displayed above (e.g., on) astronomical object 806g, thereby creating a depth effect between the digital time indication 806b, the selectable user interface element 806, and the astronomical object 806g.

[0360] After (eg, in response to) detecting a predetermined event (eg, the same predetermined event as described above or a different predetermined event), the computer system 800 displays a second portion or view of the astronomical object 806g, such as Figure 8P The second portion of astronomical object 806g shows a different set of planets than those shown in the first portion of astronomical object 806g, including Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and the asteroid belt. Thus, after a predetermined event, a different set of planets from the solar system is displayed in clock user interface 806.

[0361] After (eg, in response to) detecting user input 808 of rotating the rotatable input mechanism 804, the computer system 800 displays a clock user interface 806 including a third portion of an astronomical object 806g, as shown in FIG. Figure 8Q 806f at a different time.

[0362] The third portion of the astronomical object 806g includes a complete view of the solar system, including all eight planets and the sun, arranged as they would appear in a solar system diagram or other representation of the solar system. In some embodiments, the third portion of the astronomical object 806g reflects the current configuration of the solar system as of the current date, such that the planets of the astronomical object 806g are arranged in their orbits around the sun as of the current date.

[0363] After (e.g., in response to) detecting user input 808 to further rotate the rotatable input mechanism 804 in the clockwise direction, the computer system 800 updates the clock user interface 806 to display astronomical objects 806g for a number of months in the future that is proportional to the amount of rotation provided by the user input 808, e.g., Figure 8R As shown. Thus, the computer system 800 updates the positions of the planets in the astronomical object 806g to be relevant to the selected October. In addition, the clock user interface 806 displays the offset 806i between the current date and the displayed date.

[0364] After (e.g., in response to) detecting user input 808 to rotate the rotatable input mechanism 804 in a counterclockwise direction, the computer system 800 updates the clock user interface 806 to display astronomical objects 806g for a number of days in the past that is proportional to the amount of rotation provided by the user input 808, e.g., Figure 8S As shown. Thus, the computer system 800 updates the positions of the planets in the astronomical object 806g to be relevant to the selected December. In addition, the clock user interface 806 displays the offset 806i between the current date and the displayed date.

[0365] As described above, in some embodiments, the displayed astronomical objects are selected by the user. Figure 8T An example of a user interface in which a user can select astronomical objects to be displayed is illustrated. Figure 8T , computer system 800 displays selection interface 810 and detects user input 812 indicating selection of astronomical object 806g. In response to detecting user input 812 indicating selection of astronomical object 806g, the computer system displays clock user interface 806 including a view or portion of astronomical object 806g.

[0366] In some embodiments, an astronomical object (e.g., astronomical object 806a, astronomical object 806f, and / or astronomical object 806g) may change after a predetermined event is detected. Figure 8A When the first view of the astronomical object 806a is shown, the computer system 800 detects a predetermined condition and displays the Figure 8J In some embodiments, whether the astronomical object changes in response to detecting a predetermined event is based on a selection of a setting. Thus, when the setting for changing the astronomical object in response to detecting a predetermined event is selected, the astronomical object may change as described above. Conversely, when the setting for changing the astronomical object in response to detecting a predetermined event is not selected, a different view of the currently selected astronomical object is displayed instead of a different astronomical object. For example, when the setting for changing the astronomical object in response to detecting a predetermined event is not selected, the computer system 800 will change from displaying the following: Figure 8AThe first view of the astronomical object 806a is transformed to show Figure 8D Another view of the astronomical object 806a is shown, such as a fourth view of the astronomical object 806a.

[0367] Figure 9 800 is a flowchart illustrating a method for using a computer system (e.g., 800) to display the current time and simultaneously display an astronomical object, according to some embodiments. Method 900 is performed at a computer system 800 (e.g., a smartwatch, wearable electronic device, smartphone, desktop computer, laptop computer, or tablet computer) in communication with a display generation component (e.g., 802) (e.g., a display controller and / or a touch-sensitive display system). In some embodiments, the computer system is in communication with one or more input devices (e.g., buttons, rotatable input mechanisms, speakers, cameras, motion detectors (e.g., accelerometers and / or gyroscopes), and / or touch-sensitive surfaces). In some embodiments, the rotatable input mechanism is located on a surface of the computer system that is perpendicular to the surface of the display generation component. In some embodiments, the rotatable mechanism is located to the right or left of the display generation component (e.g., the display generation component is on the front side of the computer system, and the rotatable input mechanism is on the right or left side of the computer system). In some embodiments, the rotatable mechanism rotates clockwise and counterclockwise. In some embodiments, the rotatable mechanism is capable of rotating about an axis that is perpendicular to a direction normal to the surface of the display generating component (e.g., movement of the rotatable mechanism is in a plane that is not parallel to the surface of the display generating component). Some operations in method 900 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

[0368] As described below, method 900 provides an intuitive way to display the current time when displaying an astronomical object. This method reduces the cognitive burden on a user of viewing the current time when displaying an astronomical object, thereby creating a more efficient human-computer interface. For battery-powered computing devices, enabling a user to view the current time when displaying an astronomical object more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

[0369] In method 900, a computer system (e.g., 800) displays (902) a clock user interface (e.g., 806) (e.g., a watch face user interface, a user interface including a time indication (e.g., an analog indication and / or a digital indication of time) (e.g., 806b)) via a display generation component (e.g., 802), including concurrently displaying (e.g., in the user interface and / or concurrently with the time indication): a first portion (904) (e.g., a first portion of a representation or a first portion of an image) of an astronomical object (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g) (e.g., the Earth, Moon, Sun, planets, asteroids, stars, and / or a solar system diagram (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g)); and selectable user interface elements (906) (e.g., 806c) (e.g., a complex function block). In some embodiments, the clock user interface is displayed on a wearable electronic device. In some embodiments, the clock user interface is displayed on a smartphone. In some embodiments, the clock user interface is displayed on a tablet. In some embodiments, displaying the first portion of the astronomical object includes displaying a first view, visual clipping, and / or perspective of the astronomical object (e.g., a view of the astronomical object at a first orientation). In some embodiments, the user interface object is associated with an application. In some embodiments, a complex function block refers to any clock face feature other than hours and minutes (e.g., clock hands or hour / minute indication) used to indicate time. In some embodiments, a complex function block provides data obtained from an application. In some embodiments, a complex function block includes an enabling representation that launches a corresponding application when selected. In some embodiments, a complex function block is displayed at a fixed, predefined location on the display.

[0370] The computer system (e.g., 800) detects an occurrence of a predetermined event (e.g., a set of one or more inputs, a raise or rotate gesture, a raise or rotate gesture following a device in a low-power display state (e.g., due to a request to transition the device to a low-power display state and / or a corresponding time period that has elapsed without receiving user input) (e.g., 808), a set of one or more touch gestures (e.g., on a touch-sensitive surface), a voice command, a button press, and / or a rotation of a rotatable input mechanism (e.g., 804) (e.g., 808)) (908). In response to detecting the occurrence of the predetermined event (910) (or optionally thereafter), the computer system displays a clock user interface (e.g., 806) via the display generation component (e.g., 802). Displaying a clock user interface includes concurrently displaying (e.g., in the user interface and / or concurrently with a time indication): a second portion of an astronomical object (912) (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g) (and optionally not displaying the first portion of the astronomical object), the second portion being different from the first portion of the astronomical object (e.g., a different crop, a different angle, a different view, a different perspective of the same location on the astronomical object, a different location of the astronomical object on the display or relative to a time and / or date indication, a different location relative to an optional user interface element (e.g., 806c)); and an optional user interface element (914). In some embodiments, displaying the second portion of the astronomical object includes displaying a second view, visual clipping, and / or perspective of the astronomical object (e.g., a view of the astronomical object at a second orientation). Displaying the second portion of the astronomical object in response to detecting the occurrence of a predetermined event provides a visual indication to the user that the predetermined event has occurred and provides the change in the user interface without requiring the user to manually edit the user interface (e.g., without requiring the user to navigate to edit the user interface), thereby providing improved visual feedback and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0371] In some embodiments, the first and / or second portions of the astronomical object (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g) are predetermined (e.g., displaying the same side of the moon and / or the same view of a solar system diagram). In some embodiments, the first and / or second portions of the astronomical object are based on the current location of the computer system (e.g., 800) (e.g., the orientation of the Earth is based on the location of the computer system). In some embodiments, the clock user interface (e.g., 806) includes an indication of the current time (e.g., before and / or after the occurrence of a predetermined event is detected). In some embodiments, the indication of the current time is a digital clock representing the current time. In some embodiments, the first and / or second portions of the astronomical object are selected from a group of portions (e.g., one of eight different crops). In some embodiments, the first and / or second portions of the astronomical object are pseudo-randomly selected (e.g., the portions will not repeat but would not have been intentionally selected). In some embodiments, the selectable user interface element (e.g., 806c) is a complex function block. In some embodiments, in response to user input (e.g., 808) (e.g., via an edit mode for a clock user interface), the complication block is removed. In some embodiments, the astronomical object has a depth effect relative to the selectable user interface element. In some embodiments, the astronomical object is displayed behind the selectable user interface element. In some embodiments, the astronomical object is displayed on top of the selectable user interface element. In some embodiments, the astronomical object partially overlaps the selectable user interface element. In some embodiments, the selectable user interface element partially overlaps the astronomical object. In some embodiments, the first portion of the astronomical object includes the second portion of the astronomical object. In some embodiments, the first portion of the astronomical object includes a portion of the second portion of the astronomical object (e.g., the first portion and the second portion share a portion). In some embodiments, the second portion of the astronomical object includes the first portion of the astronomical object. In some embodiments, when the second portion of the astronomical object is displayed (e.g., when displaying the first portion of the astronomical object is changed to displaying the second portion of the astronomical object), the display of the selectable user interface element is maintained. In some embodiments, when the second portion of the astronomical object is displayed (e.g., when displaying the first portion of the astronomical object is changed to displaying the second portion of the astronomical object), the display of the time indication is maintained.

[0372] In some embodiments, the appearance of an astronomical object (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g) indicates the current time and / or date (e.g., as indicated by 806b and / or 806c). The appearance of an astronomical object indicating the current time and / or date provides the user with an accurate representation of the astronomical object and an indication of the current time and / or date (e.g., in addition to a traditional digital or analog representation of the time and / or date), which provides improved visual feedback. In some embodiments, the appearance of an astronomical object indicates the current time by being displayed as if the astronomical object would appear at the current time of day (e.g., after sunset, at the location of the computer system (e.g., 800) on the Earth, the location of the computer system is displayed in shadow, and during daytime, at the location of the computer system on the Earth, the location of the computer system is displayed in light). In some embodiments, the appearance of the Earth indicates the current time of day by showing the current position of a terminator (e.g., a line separating day and night). In some embodiments, the lights of cities on Earth are displayed as the sun shines on those cities. In some embodiments, the appearance of a solar system diagram indicates the current time and / or date by showing the current positions of the planets relative to the sun as they would appear at the current time and / or date. In some embodiments, the appearance of the moon indicates the current day by being displayed along with the current moon phase. In some embodiments, the appearance of stars indicates the current time and / or date by being displayed as the stars would be seen relative to the current position of the Earth.

[0373] In some embodiments, the astronomical object is the Earth (e.g., 806a), the Moon (e.g., 806f) (e.g., the Earth's Moon), or a solar system diagram (e.g., 806g) (e.g., a representation of the solar system).

[0374] In some embodiments, the first portion of the astronomical object is part of a first astronomical object (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g) (e.g., in a group of astronomical objects), and the second portion of the astronomical object is part of a second astronomical object (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g) (e.g., in a group of astronomical objects) that is different from the first astronomical object. Displaying a different astronomical object in response to detecting the occurrence of a predetermined event provides a visual indication to the user that the predetermined event has occurred and provides a change in the user interface without requiring the user to manually edit the user interface (e.g., without requiring the user to navigate to edit the user interface), thereby providing improved visual feedback and reducing the number of inputs required to perform operations. In some embodiments, the user can select an Earth, Moon, or Solar System image to be randomly displayed in response to detecting the occurrence of a predetermined event.

[0375] In some embodiments, a display comprising an astronomical object at a first zoom level (e.g., Figure 8A、 Figure 8B or Figure 8D 806a shown, such as Figure 8I or Figure 8J 806f shown, such as Figure 8O or Figure 8P When the clock user interface (e.g., 806) of the astronomical object (e.g., 806g) is displayed (e.g., when the first portion of the astronomical object or the second portion of the astronomical object is displayed), the computer system (e.g., 800) detects a first user input (e.g., 808) (e.g., rotation of the rotatable input mechanism, a tap gesture, and / or a swipe gesture). In response to detecting the first user input, the computer system, via the display generation component (e.g., 802), displays the astronomical object at a second zoom level (e.g., as shown in FIG. 806g) that is different from the first zoom level. Figure 8E 806a shown, such as Figure 8K 806f shown, such as Figure 8Q In some embodiments, the computer system detects a second user input (e.g., 808) while displaying the astronomical object at a second zoom level via the display generation component (e.g., 804), a rotation of the rotatable input mechanism (e.g., 804), a tap gesture, a swipe gesture, a continuation of the first user input, and / or a second portion of the first user input, such as a continued or further rotation of the rotatable input mechanism; in some embodiments, the second user input is a continuation of the first user input (e.g., an additional rotation of the rotatable input mechanism). In response to detecting the second user input, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, an indication of the corresponding time and / or date in addition to the current time and / or date (e.g., 806h) (e.g., the non-current time is a future time or a past time; in some embodiments, the user input is rotating a rotatable input mechanism, and the direction in which the user input turns the crown determines whether a future date or a past date is displayed); in some embodiments, the computer system displays an offset from the current time (e.g., 806i) (e.g., +3 hours or -2 hours; e.g., +5 days or -6 days; e.g., +7 years; e.g., -10 years) in place of or concurrently with the indication of the non-current time; and displays, via the display generation component, an astronomical object at a second zoom level, with the astronomical object appearing at the corresponding time and / or date (e.g., as shown in FIG. 1 ). Figure 8F 、 Figure 8G Or 806a shown in 8H; Figure 8K 、 Figure 8L 、 Figure 8M Or 806f shown in 8N; Figure 8R806g) (e.g., where the astronomical object is displayed as if it will appear at a future / past date and / or time). Displaying the astronomical object at a second zoom level in response to detecting a first user input and the astronomical object appearing at the current time indicates that the user interface is in a state where the user can interact with and / or edit the user interface via further input, which demonstrates improved visual feedback. Displaying an indication of a corresponding time and / or date and the astronomical object in addition to the current time and / or date at a second zoom level in response to a second input and the astronomical object appearing at the corresponding time and / or date provides the user with an efficient way to view additional information related to the astronomical object and reduces the number of inputs required to access the information, thereby providing improved visual feedback and reducing the number of inputs required to perform operations.

[0376] In some embodiments, the Earth (e.g., 806a) is displayed with a terminal in the position that the terminal will occupy at a future / past date and / or time, and stars are displayed as they will appear relative to the position and location of the Earth at the future / past date and / or time. In some embodiments, the Moon (e.g., 806f) is displayed with the phase of the Moon (e.g., 806m) corresponding to the past / future date. In some embodiments, a representation of a solar system diagram (e.g., 806g) is displayed with the planets in the positions that the planets will occupy at the past / future date. In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 800) displays a zoomed-out view of an object at the current time in response to detecting a tap or rotation input, and then simultaneously displays a zoomed-out view of the object in response to rotation of a rotatable input mechanism (e.g., within a predetermined amount of time after a first user input (e.g., 808)), displays a time and / or date other than the current time and / or date and changes the appearance of the astronomical object to reflect the non-current time; in some embodiments, detecting an input above a threshold changes the zoom of the astronomical object and displays the astronomical object as it would appear at a future or past date / time (e.g., depending on the direction and / or magnitude of the input).

[0377] In some embodiments, in response to detecting a first user input (e.g., 808) (or a second user input), a computer system (e.g., 800) displays (e.g., concurrently with the astronomical object at a second zoom level) via a display generation component (e.g., 802) an indication of a calendar date in a first calendar system that divides the year into a first set of subdivisions (e.g., 806l) (e.g., dates according to the Gregorian or Gregorian calendar) and an indication of a calendar date in a second calendar system that divides the year into a second set of subdivisions that is different from the first set of subdivisions (e.g., 806k) (e.g., dates according to the lunar calendar; the lunar date corresponds to the same date as the displayed Gregorian date). In response to detecting the first input, displaying an indication of a calendar date in the first calendar system that divides the year into the first set of subdivisions and displaying an indication of a calendar date in the second calendar system that divides the year into the second set of subdivisions that is different from the first set of subdivisions provides a user with an efficient way to view additional information related to the astronomical object and reduces the number of inputs required to access the information, thereby providing improved visual feedback and reducing the number of inputs required to perform operations.

[0378] In some embodiments, a calendar date in a first calendar system corresponds to a calendar date in a second calendar system. In some embodiments, an indication of a solar date and an indication of a lunar date are displayed based on determining that the astronomical object is the moon. In some embodiments, the solar date and the lunar date correspond to the current date. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a second user input (e.g., 808), the solar date and the lunar date correspond to corresponding times and / or dates other than the current time and / or date. In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 800) changes the displayed indication of the solar date and the lunar date when it detects the user input (e.g., when the device detects rotation of a rotatable input mechanism, the device updates the displayed indication of the solar date and the lunar date). In some embodiments, rotation of the rotatable input mechanism in a first direction moves the displayed date forward in time. In some embodiments, rotation of the rotatable input mechanism in a second direction moves the displayed date backward in time. In some embodiments, the user input is rotation of the rotatable input mechanism, and the direction of rotation determines whether a future date or a past date is displayed. In some embodiments, the computer system displays an offset (e.g., +3 hours or -2 hours) from the current time (e.g., 806i) rather than or concurrently with an indication of a non-current time.

[0379] In some embodiments, in response to detecting a first user input (e.g., 808) (or a second user input), a computer system (e.g., 800) displays (e.g., concurrently with an indication of a solar date and / or an indication of a lunar date) via a display generation component (e.g., 802) a representation of a moon phase (e.g., 806m), where the moon phase corresponds to an indication of a current date (e.g., 806c or 806l) or an indication of a corresponding time and / or date (e.g., 806h) in addition to the current time and / or date (e.g., displaying the moon phase aligned with the displayed date). Displaying the representation of the moon phase in response to detecting the first input provides a user with an efficient way to view additional information related to astronomical objects and reduces the number of inputs required to access the information, thereby providing improved visual feedback and reducing the number of inputs required to perform operations.

[0380] In some embodiments, a representation of the moon phase is displayed based on determining that the astronomical object is the moon. In some embodiments, the representation of the moon phase corresponds to the displayed solar and lunar dates. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a second user input (e.g., 808), the moon phase corresponds to a non-current date (e.g., the displayed solar and lunar dates). In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 800) changes the displayed representation of the moon phase when it detects the user input (e.g., when the device detects the rotation of the rotatable input mechanism, the device updates the displayed representation of the moon phase). In some embodiments, rotation of the rotatable input mechanism in a first direction moves the displayed date forward in time. In some embodiments, rotation of the rotatable input mechanism in a second direction moves the displayed date backward in time. In some embodiments, the user input is a rotation of the rotatable input mechanism, and the direction of rotation determines whether a future date or a past date is displayed. In some embodiments, the computer system displays an offset (e.g., +3 hours or -2 hours) from the current time (e.g., 806i) rather than or concurrently with an indication of a non-current time.

[0381] In some embodiments, while displaying an astronomical object (e.g., 806a, 806f, or 806g) at a first zoom level via display generation component (e.g., 802) (e.g., before detecting first user input (e.g., 808)), a computer system (e.g., 800) displays stars (e.g., as Figure 8A 、 Figure 8B and Figure 8D806j) shown (e.g., stars are displayed concurrently with the astronomical object, the selection user element, and the solar / lunar date information; for example, when viewing the computer system's current location on the Earth on a current date or a non-current date, the first representation of the stars displays the stars as they would be seen when viewing a portion of the Earth (e.g., when viewing the Earth from an angle such that only a portion of the Earth is displayed); for example, the representation of the stars is displayed as they would be seen when viewing a portion of the Moon). When displaying the astronomical object at a second zoom level via the display generation component (e.g., in response to detecting the first user input), the computer system displays a second representation of the stars (e.g., 806j) that is different from the first representation of the stars (e.g., when viewing the computer system's current location on the Earth on a current date or a non-current date, the second representation of the stars displays the stars as they would be see...
