[0044] The following description sets forth exemplary methods, parameters, etc. However, it should be recognized that such description is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure, but is provided as a description of exemplary embodiments.

[0045] There is a need for electronic devices that provide efficient methods and interfaces for managing display brightness. For example, there is a need for electronic devices that allow users to quickly and easily reduce the brightness of the display, thereby conserving the battery of the electronic device. Such techniques can reduce the cognitive burden on users of managing display brightness, thereby improving productivity. Furthermore, such techniques can reduce processor and battery power that would otherwise be wasted on redundant user input.

[0046] under Figure 1A to Figure 1B 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figures 4A to 4B and Figures 5A to 5B A description of an exemplary device for performing techniques for management event notification is provided. 6A to 6T An exemplary user interface for changing the display state of a display according to some embodiments is illustrated. 7A to 7F An exemplary user interface for controlling the display state of a display according to some embodiments is illustrated. Figure 8 is a flowchart illustrating a method of changing a display state of a display according to some embodiments. 6A to 6T and 7A to 7F The user interface in the example includes Figure 8 The process is described below. Figures 9A to 9V An exemplary user interface for transitioning between various display states of a display according to some embodiments is illustrated. Figure 10 is a flow chart illustrating a method of transitioning between various display states of a display according to some embodiments. Figures 9A to 9V The user interface in the example includes Figure 10 The process is described below. 11A to 11O An exemplary user interface for displaying notifications according to some embodiments is illustrated. Figure 12 is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying notifications according to some embodiments. 11A to 11O The user interface in the example includes Figure 12 The process is described below.

[0047] 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.

[0048] 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.

[0049] 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.

[0050] 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.

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.

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).

[0053] 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.

[0054] 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.

[0055] 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.

[0056] Attention is now turned to embodiments of portable devices having touch-sensitive displays. Figure 1A is 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.

[0057] 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).

[0058] 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.

[0059] 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.

[0061] 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.

[0063] 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).

[0064] The I / O subsystem 106 couples input / output peripherals on the device 100, such as the touch screen 112 and other input control devices 116, to a peripherals interface 118. The I / O subsystem 106 optionally includes a display controller 156, an optical sensor controller 158, a depth camera controller 169, an intensity sensor controller 159, a tactile feedback controller 161, and one or more input controllers 160 for other input or control devices.

In some embodiments, the one or more input devices include one or more camera sensors (e.g., one or more optical sensors 164 and / or one or more depth camera sensors 175), such as for tracking a user's gestures (e.g., hand gestures and / or air gestures) as input. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are separate from the computer system. In some embodiments, an air gesture is a gesture that is detected without the user touching an input element that is part of the device (or independent of an input element that is part of the device) and is based on detected movement of a part of the user's body through the air, including movement of the user's body relative to an absolute reference (for example, the angle of the user's arm relative to the ground or the distance of the user's hand relative to the ground), movement relative to another part of the user's body (for example, movement of the user's hand relative to the user's shoulder, movement of one of the user's hands relative to the user's other hand, and / or movement of the user's fingers relative to another finger or part of the user's hand), and / or absolute movement of a part of the user's body (for example, a tap gesture involving movement of the hand in a predetermined position by a predetermined amount and / or speed, or a shake gesture involving a predetermined speed or amount of rotation of a part of the user's body).

[0065] A quick press of the push button optionally releases the lock on the touch screen 112 or optionally initiates the process of unlocking the device using gestures on the touch screen, as described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 322,549, filed Dec. 23, 2005, entitled "Unlocking a Device by Performing Gestures on an Unlock Image," (i.e., U.S. Pat.

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.

[0068] 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.

However, the touch screen 112 displays visual output from the device 100, whereas a touch-sensitive touchpad does not provide visual output.

[0070] The touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of the touch screen 112 is described in the following applications: (1) U.S. patent application No. 11 / 381,313, filed on May 2, 2006, “Multipoint Touch Surface Controller”; (2) U.S. patent application No. 10 / 840,862, filed on May 6, 2004, “Multipoint Touchscreen”; (3) U.S. patent application No. 10 / 903,964, filed on July 30, 2004, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices”; (4) U.S. patent application No. 11 / 048,264, filed on January 31, 2005, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices”; (5) U.S. patent application No. 11 / 038,590, filed on January 18, 2005, “Mode-Based Graphical User Interfaces For Touch Sensitive Input Devices”; (6) U.S. patent application Ser.

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.

[0075] 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.

[0076] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 . Figure 1AA 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).

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.

[0082] 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.

[0083] 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.

[0084] 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).

[0085] 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.

[0086] 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.

[0087] In some embodiments, the graphics module 132 stores data representing graphics to be used. Each graphic is optionally assigned a corresponding code.

In some embodiments, device 100 optionally includes the functionality of an MP3 player, such as an iPod (trademark of Apple Inc.).

[0126] In conjunction with the touch screen 112, display controller 156, contact / motion module 130, graphics module 132, and text input module 134, the note module 153 includes executable instructions for creating and managing notes, to-do lists, etc. according to user instructions.

[0127] In combination with the RF circuitry 108, touch screen 112, display controller 156, touch / motion module 130, graphics module 132, text input module 134, GPS module 135, and browser module 147, the map module 154 is optionally used to receive, display, modify, and store maps and data associated with the maps (e.g., driving directions, data relating to stores and other points of interest at or near a particular location, and other location-based data) in accordance with user instructions.

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.

[0129] 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.

[0130] 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.

[0131] 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.

[0132] 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).

[0133] 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.

[0134] 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.

[0135] 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.

[0136] 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).

[0137] In some embodiments, the event classifier 170 also includes a hit view determination module 172 and / or an active event identifier determination module 173.

[0138] 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.

[0139] 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.

[0140] 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.

[0141] 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.

[0142] 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.

[0143] 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.

[0144] 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.

[0145] 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).

[0146] 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).

[0147] Event comparator 184 compares event information with predefined event or sub-event definitions and determines an event or sub-event based on the comparison, or determines or updates the state of an event or sub-event. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 includes event definition 186. Event definition 186 includes the definition of an event (e.g., a predefined sequence of sub-events), such as event 1 (187-1), event 2 (187-2), and others. In some embodiments, sub-events in an event (e.g., 187-1 and / or 187-2) 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 a displayed object, a first lift-off (touch end) of a predetermined duration, a second touch (touch start) of a predetermined duration on a 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.

[0148] In some embodiments, event definition 186 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.

[0149] 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.

[0150] 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.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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.

[0157] Figure 2 A portable multifunction device 100 is illustrated with a touch screen 112 according to some embodiments. 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 manipulate the device by, for example, using one or more fingers 202 (in the Figure 2 Not drawn to scale) or one or more styluses 203 (in Figure 2In some embodiments, the user may select one or more of the graphics by making a gesture on the graphics (not drawn to scale). 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 a finger that has made contact with the device 100 (from right to left, from left to right, up and / or down). In some embodiments 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 optionally does not select the corresponding application when the gesture corresponding to selection is a tap.

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] Attention is now turned to an embodiment of a user interface, optionally implemented on, for example, portable multifunction device 100 .

[0163] 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:

[0164] Signal strength indicators 402 for wireless communications such as cellular and Wi-Fi signals;

[0165] Time 404;

[0166] Bluetooth indicator 405;

[0167] Battery status indicator 406;

[0168] A tray 408 with icons for commonly used applications, such as:

[0169] o an icon 416 labeled “Phone” for the phone module 138, which optionally includes an indicator 414 of the number of missed calls or voicemails;

[0170] o an icon 418 of the email client module 140 labeled “Mail,” which optionally includes an indicator 410 of the number of unread emails;

[0171] o An icon 420 labeled "Browser" of the browser module 147; and

[0172] 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

[0173] Icons for other apps, such as:

[0174] o Icon 424 of the IM module 141 labeled “Messages”;

[0175] o Icon 426 labeled “Calendar” of calendar module 148;

[0176] o Icon 428 labeled “Photos” of the image management module 144;

[0177] o an icon 430 labeled “Camera” of the camera module 143;

[0178] o Icon 432 labeled “Online Video” of the online video module 155;

[0179] o Icon 434 labeled “Stock Market” of the stock market widget 149-2;

[0180] o an icon 436 labeled “Map” of the map module 154;

[0181] o Icon 438 labeled “Weather” of the weather widget 149-1;

[0182] o The icon 440 labeled “Clock” of the alarm clock widget 149-4;

[0183] o an icon 442 labeled “Fitness Support” of the fitness support module 142;

[0184] o an icon 444 labeled “Notes” of the notes module 153; and

[0185] 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.

[0186] 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.

[0187] 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.

[0188] 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.

[0189] 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.

[0190] 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.

[0191] 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.

[0192] 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.

[0193] 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.

[0194] 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.

[0195] 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 800, 1000, and 1200 ( Figure 8 、 Figure 10 and Figure 12). 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.

[0196] 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.

[0197] 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).

[0198] 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.

[0199] 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.

[0200] 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:

[0201] The active app currently displayed on the display of the device on which the app is being used;

[0202] 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

[0203] Not running but stored in memory (volatile and non-volatile respectively)

[0204] A suspended or dormant application that contains status information that can be used to resume execution of the application.

[0205] 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.

[0206] 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.

[0207] 6A to 6T Illustrated are exemplary user interfaces for changing the display state of a display according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the process described below, including Figure 8 in the process.

[0208] exist Figure 6A At , the computer system 600 displays the wake screen user interface 602 via the display 610 (e.g., a touch screen display) while the computer system 600 is in a normal power state (e.g., a normal power consumption mode (e.g., a mode corresponding to higher power consumption than a lower power state (e.g., a mode corresponding to a brighter display, improved performance, and / or more frequent display updates)). When the computer system 600 is in the normal power state, the computer system 600 displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a bright appearance (e.g., as shown in FIG. 1 ). Figure 6A). Wake screen user interface 602 includes multiple user interface elements, including a date indicator 616 and a time indicator 618. Date indicator 616 indicates the current date, while time indicator 618 indicates the current time. Wake screen user interface 602 also includes a flash enable indication 614 and a camera enable indication 612. In response to detecting a selection (e.g., a tap input) of flash enable indication 614, computer system 600 turns on a flash (e.g., a flash coupled to the back of computer system 600). In addition, in response to detecting a selection (e.g., a tap input) of camera enable indication 612, computer system 600 launches a camera application (e.g., a camera application installed on computer system 600).

[0209] like Figure 6A As illustrated, wake screen user interface 602 includes home affordance 622. Computer system 600 displays the home user interface in response to detecting a swipe gesture (e.g., an upward swipe gesture) on home affordance 622. Figure 6A As illustrated, computer system 600 includes hardware control 628. Computer system 600 transitions from one respective state (e.g., a low power state, a display off state, a normal power state, and / or a powered off state) to a different respective state in response to detecting activation of hardware control 628.

[0210] In addition, if Figure 6A As shown, the wake screen user interface 602 includes a status bar 608. The status bar 608 includes a battery indicator 608a that depicts an indication of the battery power of the computer system 600. In addition, the status bar 608 includes a cellular signal indicator 608b that indicates the strength of the cellular signal of the computer system 600. Figure 6A As shown, the wake screen user interface 602 includes a row of complications 620. The row of complications 620 includes a calendar complication 620a, a fitness complication 620b, and a weather complication 620c. The calendar complication 620a includes an indication of upcoming events (e.g., meetings and / or appointments) on the calendar of the user of the computer system 600. The fitness complication 620b includes an indication of various fitness metrics of the user for a particular day (e.g., calories burned, the number of times the user stood up during the day, the cumulative exercise time, and / or the amount of movement of the user). The weather complication 620c indicates the current weather conditions (e.g., the current temperature) at the physical location of the computer system 600.

[0211] exist Figure 6A At , the wake screen user interface 602 includes a wallpaper 606. The wallpaper 606 includes visual elements (e.g., a depiction of an individual). Figure 6AAt , the computer system 600 displays the visual elements of the wallpaper 606 in the foreground of the wake screen user interface 602, and the computer system 600 displays the time indicator 618 in the background of the wake screen user interface 602. Figure 6A In some embodiments, the wake screen user interface 602 does not have different portions displayed with a simulated depth effect (e.g., the wake screen user interface 602 does not have an image with a foreground portion displayed in front of some elements displayed in front of a background portion of the image). In some embodiments, the wake screen user interface 602 includes additional user interface elements (e.g., more than Figure 6A In some embodiments, the wake screen user interface 602 includes less than Figure 6A All user interface elements shown in . Figure 6A At 650 a, computer system 600 detects activation 650 a of hardware control 628 while computer system 600 is in a normal power state.

[0212] exist Figure 6B In response to detecting activation 650a of hardware control 628, computer system 600 is switched from a normal power state (e.g., Figure 6A As part of the transition from a normal power state to a low power state (e.g., as described below with reference to Figures 9A to 9CIn some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from a normal power state to a low power state based on a determination that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., not in response to detection of an input).

[0213] In one embodiment, the computer system 600 reduces the brightness of the wake-up screen user interface 602 by applying a vignette effect to the wake-up screen user interface 602 and by desaturating the wake-up screen user interface 602. In addition, the computer system 600 reduces the brightness of the wake-up screen user interface 602 by reducing the luminance of the display 610. Compared to the display of the wake-up screen user interface 602 when the computer system 600 is in a normal power state, the display of the wake-up screen user interface 602 when the computer system 600 is in a low-power state has an overall lower brightness. In some embodiments, the reduction in the brightness of the wake-up screen user interface 602 is correlated with the ambient brightness of the physical environment of the computer system 600 (e.g., the darker the physical environment, the more the brightness of the wake-up screen user interface 602 is reduced). In some embodiments, the computer system reduces the saturation of the wake-up screen user interface 602 non-uniformly.

[0214] Additionally, as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 changes the visual appearance of the date indicator 616 and the time indicator 618. Specifically, in Figure 6B At the computer system 600, Figure 6AIn some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the date indicator 616 and the time indicator 618 in a narrower font than the font of the date indicator 616 and the time indicator 618 at the normal power state. In some embodiments, as part of the transition of the computer system 600 from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 visually obscures (e.g., blurs and / or dims) the visual appearance of one or more user interface objects (e.g., the date indicator 616 and / or the time indicator 618). In some embodiments, as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 reduces the brightness of the date indicator 616 and / or the time indicator 618. In some embodiments, as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 reduces the size of the date indicator 616 and / or the time indicator 618.

[0215] exist Figure 6B At , the visual content of wallpaper 606 does not overlap with time indicator 618. As part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, computer system 600 shifts the display position of the visual content of wallpaper 606 so that the visual content of wallpaper 606 does not overlap with time indicator 618. Figure 6B At , the computer system 600 does not display the flash enable indication 614, the camera enable indication 612, the display battery indicator 608a, and the cellular signal indicator 608b. As part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 stops displaying the flash enable indication 614, the camera enable indication 612, the battery indicator 608a, and the cellular signal indicator 608b. In some embodiments, as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 shifts the display of the time indicator 618 so that the visual content of the wallpaper 606 does not overlap with the time indicator 618. In some embodiments, as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 reduces the brightness of the flash enable indication 614, the camera enable indication 612, the display battery indicator 608a, and the cellular signal indicator 608b. In some embodiments, as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state, the computer system 600 reduces the size of the display of the visual content included in the wallpaper 606.

[0216] exist Figure 6C At , the computer system 600 is in a low power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 with a dark appearance. Figure 6CAt 80°C, while the computer system 600 is in the low-power state, the computer system 600 detects the hand cover gesture 650c (e.g., the hand cover gesture 650c covers one or more sensors of the computer system 600). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 detects the hand cover gesture 650c for an amount of time (e.g., 1 second, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, or 15 seconds) that is greater than a time threshold.

[0217] exist Figure 6D At , in response to detecting the hand cover gesture 650c, the computer system 600 transitions from the low-power state to the display-off state. When the computer system 600 is in the display-off state, the computer system 600 does not illuminate the display 610. That is, the computer system 600 stops displaying all user interface elements in response to the computer system 600 transitioning from the low-power state to the display-off state. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 may transition only from the low-power state to the display-off state. In some embodiments, as part of the transition from the low-power state to the display-off state, the computer system 600 displays one or more user interface elements as faded out (e.g., faded out simultaneously). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the low-power state to the display-off state in response to detecting activation of one or more hardware controls (e.g., power hardware control 628) coupled to the computer system 600. At Figure 6D At 650d, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650d while the computer system 600 is in a display-off state.

[0218] exist Figure 6E At 650d, in response to detecting the tap input 650d, the computer system 600 transitions from the display off state to the normal power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a bright appearance (e.g., the computer system 600 "wakes up" in response to detecting the tap input while the computer system is in the display off state). Figure 6EAs shown, time indicator 618 indicates that the current time is "10:00". In some embodiments, computer system 600 transitions from the display off state to the normal power state in response to detecting a swipe input (e.g., a horizontal swipe, a vertical swipe, a diagonal swipe, and / or a multi-directional swipe). In some embodiments, computer system 600 transitions from the display off state to the normal power state in response to detecting activation of a hardware control button (e.g., power hardware control 628). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from a display off state to a normal power state in response to detecting a lift for a wake gesture (e.g., a user has lifted the computer system 600) (e.g., the computer system 600 detects a change in the vertical positioning and / or angle of the computer system 600 at a rate greater than a predetermined threshold) (e.g., the computer system 600 detects a change in the orientation of the computer system 600 (e.g., the display 610 of the computer system 600 rotates from a face-down orientation to a face-up orientation and / or tilts from a flat orientation relative to the earth's gravity to at least partially upright (e.g., tilted toward the user by at least a threshold amount, such as 15 degrees, 30 degrees, 45 degrees, 50 degrees, 60 degrees, 70 degrees, 80 degrees, or 90 degrees relative to the flat orientation)).

[0219] like Figure 6F As shown, the time indicator 618 indicates that the current time is "10:02". Figure 6G and Figure 6F Two minutes have passed. Figure 6F At , it is determined that the computer system 600 has been inactive (e.g., the computer system 600 has not detected any user input (e.g., a tap, swipe gesture, and / or activation of a hardware control button)) for two minutes (e.g., Figure 6G and Figure 6F The computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state because it is determined that the computer system 600 has remained inactive for two minutes. The computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state based on the computer system 600 "timing out" (e.g., the computer system 600 does not detect any user interaction for a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, or 5 minutes). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the display off state in response to the computer system 600 being inactive for a predetermined amount of time. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state based on determining that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., and not in response to detection of an input). Figure 6F At , computer system 600 detects swipe input 650f while computer system 600 is in a low power state.

[0220] exist Figure 6G At , in response to detecting the swipe input 650f, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 with a bright appearance. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state in response to detecting a tap input (e.g., a short tap (e.g., tap and release) or a long tap (e.g., tap and hold)). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state in response to detecting activation of one or more hardware controls coupled to the computer system 600. Figure 6G At , computer system 600 detects a swipe input 650g while the computer system is in a normal power state. In some embodiments, swipe gesture 650g is a swipe gesture in a horizontal direction. In some embodiments, swipe gesture 650g is a swipe gesture in a diagonal direction. In some embodiments, swipe gesture 650g is a multi-directional swipe gesture.

[0221] like Figure 6H As shown, in response to detecting swipe input 650g, computer system 600 displays control center user interface 636. Control center user interface 636 includes a plurality of selectable affordances for controlling (e.g., setting or modifying) one or more settings on computer system 600 (e.g., one or more Wi-Fi settings, Bluetooth settings, display settings (e.g., brightness control), and / or sound settings) or one or more accessory devices in communication with computer system 600. Figure 6H As shown, the control center user interface 636 includes at least a camera application enable indication 630, a do not disturb enable indication 634, and a battery save enable indication 632. In some embodiments, the control center user interface 636 includes Figure 6H In some embodiments, the control center user interface 636 includes a subset of the affordances shown in FIG. Figure 6H Additional affordances not shown in . Figure 6H At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650h corresponding to a selection of the camera application enable indication 630.

[0222] exist Figure 6I In response to detecting the tap input 650h, the computer system 600 displays a camera application user interface 638. The camera application user interface 638 corresponds to a camera application installed on the computer system 600 (e.g., an application that provides the user with the ability to capture still photos and / or videos). Figure 6I At , the computer system 600 is in a normal power state (e.g., the computer system 600 does not transition to a power state in response to detecting the tap input 650h). Figure 6I At , computer system 600 detects a hand covering gesture 650 i on one or more sensors of computer system 600 .

[0223] exist Figure 6J In response to detecting the hand cover gesture 650i, the computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a dark appearance (e.g., and stops displaying the camera application user interface 638). Figures 9H to 9K Described in more detail, when the computer system 600 displays a corresponding user interface that is different from the wake screen user interface 602 when the computer system 600 detects a request to transition a power state, the computer system 600 replaces display of the corresponding user interface with the wake screen user interface 602 as part of transitioning from the normal power state to the low power state. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 replaces display of the corresponding user interface with the wake screen user interface 602 in response to detecting activation of a hardware control button (e.g., the power hardware control 628). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the display off state (e.g., as shown in FIG. 1 ) in response to detecting a hand cover gesture 650i while displaying the corresponding user interface. Figure 6D In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state based on a determination that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., and not in response to detection of an input). Figure 6J At , computer system 600 detects hand covering gesture 650j while computer system 600 is in a low power state.

[0224] exist Figure 6K At , it is determined that the computer system 600 detects the corresponding input (e.g., Figure 6H The tap input at 650h). Figure 6K , because it is determined that the computer system 600 detected the corresponding input within a threshold amount of time of detecting the hand cover gesture 650j, the computer system 600 suppresses the display off state (e.g., in response to detecting the hand cover gesture 650j) and the computer system 600 remains in a lower power state (e.g., and maintains display of the wake screen user interface 602). The computer system 600 suppresses the display off state if the computer system 600 detects a user interaction within a threshold amount of time (e.g., 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 45 seconds, or 1 minute) of detecting the corresponding input (e.g., a tap input, a swipe input, activation of a hardware control, and / or a hand cover gesture) that would otherwise cause the computer system 600 to transition to the display off state. The computer system 600 suppresses the display off state if the computer system 600 detects a user interaction within a threshold amount of time (e.g., 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 45 seconds, or 1 minute) of detecting the corresponding input (e.g., a tap input, a swipe input, activation of a hardware control, and / or a hand cover gesture) that would otherwise cause the computer system 600 to transition to the display off state. Figure 6HThe hand covering gesture 650j is detected within a threshold amount of taps of the tap input 650h detected at . Therefore, the computer system 600 does not transition from the low power state to the display off state in response to detecting the hand covering gesture 650j. Figure 6K At , computer system 600 detects a tap input 650k while computer system 600 is in a low power state.

[0225] exist Figure 6L At , in response to detecting the tap input 650k, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal operating state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a bright appearance. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state based on determining that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., and not in response to detection of an input). Figure 6L At , the computer system 600 detects a swipe gesture 6501. In some embodiments, the swipe gesture 6501 is a swipe gesture in a horizontal direction. In some embodiments, the swipe gesture 6501 is a swipe gesture in a diagonal direction. In some embodiments, the swipe gesture 6501 is a multi-directional swipe gesture. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from a low-power state to a normal-power state in response to detecting that a user has performed a raise to a wake-up gesture (e.g., the user raises the computer system 600). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from a low-power state to a normal-power state in response to detecting activation of a hardware control (power hardware control 628) coupled to the computer system 600. In some embodiments, if the computer system 600 detects a request to transition from a low-power state to a normal-power state (e.g., a tap input and / or a raise to a wake-up gesture) within a threshold amount of time of detecting the hand covering gesture, the computer system 600 remains in the low-power state.

[0226] exist Figure 6M In response to detecting the swipe gesture 6501, the computer system 600 displays the control center user interface 636. Figure 6M At , the computer system 600 displays the Do Not Disturb affordance 634 when deactivated (e.g., the computer system 600 displays the Do Not Disturb affordance 634 without bolding). Figure 6M As shown, computer system 600 displays the word "Focus" within Do Not Disturb affordance 634 while Do Not Disturb affordance 634 is deactivated. Figure 6M At this point, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650m corresponding to a selection of the Do Not Disturb indication 634.

[0227] exist Figure 6NAt 650m, in response to detecting the tap input 650m, the computer system 600 enters the Do Not Disturb mode. When the computer system 600 is in the Do Not Disturb mode, the computer system 600 suppresses notifications, alarms, sounds, tactile outputs, and / or any other distracting outputs. Figure 6N As shown, when computer system 600 is in Do Not Disturb mode, computer system 600 displays an activated Do Not Disturb affordance 634 (e.g., computer system 600 displays Do Not Disturb affordance 634 with shading and bolding). Figure 6N As shown, the computer system 600 displays the phrase "Do Not Disturb" within the Do Not Disturb indicator 634 when the computer system 600 is in Do Not Disturb mode. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the Do Not Disturb indicator 634 activated by inverting the color of the Do Not Disturb indicator 634 (e.g., the computer system 600 displays black areas of the Do Not Disturb indicator 634 as white and displays white areas of the Do Not Disturb indicator 643 as black). Figure 6N At , the computer system 600 detects activation 650n of the hardware control 628 while the computer system 600 is in the Do Not Disturb mode.

[0228] exist Figure 6O At , in response to detecting activation 650n of hardware control 628, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the display off state. Computer system 600 suppresses the low power state when computer system 600 is in Do Not Disturb mode. That is, when computer system 600 is in Do Not Disturb mode, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the display off state in response to detecting a corresponding input that would cause computer system 600 to transition from the normal power state to the low power state if computer system 600 detected the corresponding input when computer system 600 was not in Do Not Disturb mode. Figure 6O At , the computer system 600 remains in Do Not Disturb mode while the computer system 600 is in the display off state (e.g., the computer system 600 does not exit Do Not Disturb mode as part of transitioning from the normal power state to the display off state). Figure 6O At 650 o, the computer system 600 detects activation 650 o of the hardware control 628 while the computer system 600 is in the display off state.

[0229] exist Figure 6P In response to detecting activation 650o of hardware control 628, computer system 600 transitions from the display off state to the normal power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a bright appearance. Figure 6P At , the computer system 600 remains in Do Not Disturb mode (e.g., the computer system 600 does not exit Do Not Disturb mode as part of transitioning from the display off state to the normal power state). Figure 6P At , when the computer system 600 is in a normal power state, the computer system 600 detects a swipe gesture 650p.

[0230] exist Figure 6Q In response to detecting the swipe gesture 650p, the computer system 600 displays the control center user interface 636. Figure 6Q As shown, because the computer system 600 is in Do Not Disturb mode (e.g., as described above with reference to Figure 6N ), so the computer system 600 displays the Do Not Disturb affordance 634 as active (e.g., the computer system 600 displays the Do Not Disturb affordance 634 as shaded and bold). Figure 6Q At , when the computer system 600 is in Do Not Disturb mode, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650q corresponding to a selection of the Do Not Disturb indication 634.

[0231] exist Figure 6R At , in response to detecting the tap input 650q, the computer system 600 exits the Do Not Disturb mode. Figure 6R At , because computer system 600 is no longer in Do Not Disturb mode, computer system 600 displays Do Not Disturb affordance 634 as deactivated (e.g., computer system 600 displays Do Not Disturb affordance 634 without shading and without bolding). Figure 6R At , computer system 600 is in a normal power state. When computer system 600 is in a normal power state, computer system 600 detects a tap input 650r corresponding to selection of battery save affordance indication 632.

[0232] exist Figure 6S In response to detecting the tap input 650r, the computer system 600 enters the battery conservation mode. Figure 6S , computer system 600 remains in the normal power state (e.g., computer system 600 does not exit the normal power state in response to detecting tap input 650r on battery preservation enable indication 632). When computer system 600 is in battery preservation mode, power consumption of computer system 600 is reduced, thereby extending the life of the battery of computer system 600. In addition, while in battery preservation mode, computer system 600 does not perform various battery-intensive operations (e.g., applications on computer system 600 do not refresh in the background and / or upload media items to a cloud-based server).

[0233] like Figure 6SAs shown, because computer system 600 is in battery conservation mode, computer system 600 displays battery conservation indicator 632 as active (e.g., computer system 600 displays battery conservation indicator 632 as shaded and bold). In some embodiments, when the battery of computer system 600 drops below a power threshold, computer system 600 automatically (e.g., without intervening user input) enters battery conservation mode. Figure 6S At 650s, computer system 600 detects activation 650s of hardware control 628 while computer system 600 is in battery conservation mode.

[0234] exist Figure 6T At 650s, in response to detecting activation 650 of hardware control 628, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the display off state. Computer system 600 suppresses the low power state while computer system 600 is in battery preservation mode. That is, when computer system 600 is in battery preservation mode, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the display off state in response to detecting a corresponding input. If computer system 600 detects the corresponding input when computer system 600 is not in battery preservation mode, the corresponding input would cause computer system 600 to transition from the normal power state to the low power state. When computer system 600 is in the display off state, computer system 600 remains in battery preservation mode.

[0235] 7A to 7F Illustrated are exemplary user interfaces for controlling the display state of a display according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including Figure 8 in the process.

[0236] exist Figure 7A At , the computer system 600 is in a normal power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a bright appearance. Figure 7A As shown, the time indicator 618 indicates that the current time is "10:26". Figure 7A At , user 704 places computer system 600 on a table and sits down at the table.

[0237] exist Figure 7B At , the user 704's attention is directed to the laptop computer located on the table. Figure 7B As shown, the time indicator 618 indicates that the current time is "10:30". Figure 7B At , it is determined that the computer system 600 has been inactive (e.g., the computer system 600 has not detected any user interaction) for four minutes. Figure 6BAt , because it is determined that computer system 600 has been inactive for four minutes, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state (e.g., as described above in Figure 6F ) and displays the wake screen user interface 602 with a dark appearance. Figure 7B At , the distance between the external device 708 and the computer system 600 is below a distance threshold (e.g., 1 foot, 3 feet, 5 feet, or 10 feet). Figure 7B At , user 704 begins to leave computer system 600. In some embodiments, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state based on determining that a set of one or more criteria are met (eg, and not in response to detection of an input).

[0238] exist Figure 7C At this point, the distance between the external device 708 and the computer system 600 has increased (e.g., Figure 7B ) compared to the distance between the external device 708 and the computer system 600 at Figure 7C At , it is determined that the distance between the computer system 600 and the external device 708 has transitioned from less than the distance threshold to greater than the distance threshold. Figure 7C At , because it is determined that the distance between the computer system 600 and the external device 708 has transitioned from less than the distance threshold to greater than the distance threshold, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the display off state.

[0239] When the external device 708 is out of range of the computer system 600 (e.g., the distance between the external device 708 and the computer system 600 is greater than a distance threshold), the computer system 600 suppresses the low power state. Upon determining that the external device 708 is out of range of the computer system 600, the computer system 600 automatically (e.g., without intervening user input) transitions from the low power state to the display off state. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 automatically transitions from the normal power state to the display off state when it is determined that the distance between the computer system 600 and the external device 708 is greater than a distance threshold. Figure 7C At , user 704 begins walking backwards toward computer system 600.

[0240] exist Figure 7D At this point, the distance between the external device 708 and the computer system 600 has decreased (e.g., Figure 7C ) compared to the distance between the external device 708 and the computer system 600 at Figure 7D At , it is determined that the distance between the external device 708 and the computer system 600 has transitioned from being greater than the distance threshold to being less than the distance threshold. Figure 7DAt , because it is determined that the distance between the computer system 600 and the external device 708 has transitioned from greater than the distance threshold to less than the distance threshold, the computer system 600 transitions from the display off state to the low power state and displays the wake-up screen user interface with a dark appearance. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the corresponding user interface that was most recently displayed before the computer system 600 transitioned to the display off state. In some embodiments, when it is determined that the distance between the computer system 600 and the external device 708 is less than the distance threshold, the computer system 600 automatically (e.g., without intervening user input) transitions from the display off state to the normal power state.

[0241] exist Figure 7E At , the computer system 600 receives a telecommunication signal corresponding to an electronic message (e.g., a text message). Figure 7E As shown, in response to receiving the telecommunication signal, the computer system 600 displays the wake screen user interface 602 (e.g., in a darkened appearance) including the notification 710. Figures 11B to 11D As discussed in more detail, the display of notification 710 contrasts sharply with the display of wake screen user interface 602. That is, notification 710 is displayed with a brighter appearance (e.g., dark text overlaid on a white background), while the average brightness of wake screen user interface 602 is darker. Figure 7E , the display 610 of the computer system 600 is facing upward (e.g., the display 610 is not in contact with the surface of the table). In some embodiments, as part of displaying the notification 710, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state. In some embodiments, the notification 710 is generated by an application installed on the computer system 600 (e.g., a weather application, a text messaging application, and / or an electronic mail (e.g., e-mail) application), or by an operating system of the computer system 600. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 stops displaying the wake screen user interface 602 in response to detecting input corresponding to selection of the notification 710. Figure 7E At , when the computer system 600 is in a low power state (eg, the display 610 is contacting the surface of the table), the user 714 places the computer system 600 face down on the table.

[0242] exist Figure 7F At , it is determined that the context of computer system 600 has changed (e.g., at Figure 7E At , the computer system 600 is positioned with the display 610 facing upward, and Figure 7FIn some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the display-off state in response to detecting a change in the context of the computer system 600 (e.g., the computer system 600 is positioned face-down, the computer system 600 is placed in a user's purse, the computer system 600 is placed in a user's pocket, the computer system is placed on the user's back).

[0243] Figure 8 800 is a flowchart illustrating a method for changing the display state of a display using a computer system according to some embodiments. Method 800 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500) in communication with a display generation component. Some operations in method 800 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

[0244] As described below, method 800 provides an intuitive way to change the display state of a display. This method reduces the cognitive burden on the user of changing the display state of the display, thereby creating a more efficient human-computer interface. For battery-powered computing devices, enabling users to change the display state of the display more quickly and efficiently saves power and increases the time between battery charges.

[0245] The computer system (e.g., 600) displays (802) a first user interface (e.g., 602) in a first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A described) (e.g., a wake-up screen user interface, a home screen user interface, or an application user interface).

[0246] When the first user interface (e.g., 602) is displayed (e.g., in a first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A The computer system detects (804) a first condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650a, 650c, 650i, Figures 6E to 6F and / or 7A to 7B The occurrence of the above).

[0247] In response to detecting a first condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650a, 650c, 650i, Figures 6E to 6F and / or 7A to 7B Upon occurrence of the above-described event, the computer system transitions (806) (e.g., 600) from a first mode (e.g., a higher power consumption mode (e.g., a mode corresponding to higher power consumption compared to a lower power consumption mode) (e.g., a mode corresponding to a brighter display, increased performance, and / or more frequent display updates)) to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 5 ) with a second user interface (e.g., 602) (e.g., a low-power version of the first user interface or a different user interface, such as a wake-up screen user interface). Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D as described above) (e.g., a lower power consumption mode (e.g., power consumption in the second mode is lower than power consumption in the first mode)) (e.g., a second brightness that is less than the brightness of the first mode), wherein the display generation component (808) (e.g., 610) is in the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ) relative to the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A described above) has a lower average brightness level; is in a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D The first portion (810) of the second user interface (e.g., 602) (e.g., as described with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7DThe foreground discussed above) (e.g., the first user interface element or the first user interface area) is relative to being in the first mode (e.g., as discussed above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A The first user portion of the second user interface of the present invention is reduced in brightness by a first amount; and is in a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D The second portion (812) of the second user interface (e.g., as described with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D The background discussed above) (e.g., the second user interface element or the second user interface area) relative to being in the first mode (e.g., as discussed above Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A The first user portion of the second user interface of the device is reduced in brightness by a second amount; and the second amount (814) is different from (eg, greater than or less than) the first amount.

[0248] When the computer system (eg, 600) is in the second mode (eg, as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ), the computer system detects (via one or more sensors in communication (e.g., wireless communication and / or wired communication) with the computer system) a second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C and Figure 7FThe computer system may also include detecting the occurrence of a gesture (e.g., a tap gesture, a swipe input, tactile input on a hardware button integrated into the computer system, and / or hand coverage) (e.g., detecting a change in the position and / or spatial orientation of the computer system) (e.g., detecting a change in the environment in which the computer system is located).

[0249] In response to detecting a second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C and Figure 7F ) occurs, the computer system switches from the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ) transition (818) to a third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7FIn some embodiments, detecting a change in the context of the computer system includes one or more of: receiving data from one or more sensors indicating that user activity is below a threshold activity level, determining that a predetermined time period has passed without the device receiving user input at one or more input devices (e.g., a touch screen, a rotatable input mechanism, a pressable input mechanism). In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode includes placing the computer system in a locked state (e.g., a state in which functionality of the computer system is limited). In some embodiments, the locked state of the computer system is maintained when the computer system transitions from the second mode to the first mode. In some embodiments, the computer system displays a first user interface when the computer system is in the first mode, and the computer system maintains display of the first user interface when the computer system transitions to the second mode. In some embodiments, the computer system displays a first user interface when the computer system is in a first mode, and the computer displays a modified version of the first user interface when the computer system is in a second mode. Transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a set of conditions are met (e.g., in response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition) allows the computer system to automatically manage the operating mode of the computer system, optionally to save battery power, which automatically performs operations. Transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a set of conditions are met (e.g., in response to detecting the occurrence of the second condition) allows the computer system to automatically manage the operating mode of the computer system, optionally to save battery power, which automatically performs operations. As part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode, reducing the brightness of the first portion of the second user interface by a first amount and reducing the brightness of the second portion of the second user interface by a second amount greater than the first amount provides visual feedback to the user about the current mode of the computer system, which provides improved visual feedback.

[0250] In some embodiments, as in the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7AAs part of displaying a first user interface (e.g., 602), the computer system displays a first set of one or more user interface elements (e.g., 612 and / or 614) (e.g., one or more user interface elements indicating a time and / or date) (e.g., the computer system performs one or more functions (e.g., turns on a light coupled to the computer system and / or launches a camera application) in response to detecting that the one or more user interface elements are selected). In some embodiments, as part of transitioning the computer system (e.g., 600) from a first mode of a second user interface (e.g., 602) to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D As part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a condition is met (e.g., in response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition), the computer system stops displaying the first group of one or more user interface elements (e.g., 612 and / or 614). In some embodiments, in response to the computer system transitioning from the second mode back to the first mode, the one or more user interface elements are redisplayed. In some embodiments, stopping displaying the first group of one or more user interface elements includes the computer system displaying the one or more user interface elements as fading out (e.g., the computer system displays the first group of one or more user interface elements as fading out simultaneously, or the computer system displays the one or more user interface elements as fading out sequentially). Stopping display of the first group of one or more user interface elements as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a condition is met (e.g., in response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition) allows the computer system to automatically manage which user interface elements are displayed to optionally conserve battery power, which operates when a set of conditions are met.

[0251] In some embodiments, as in the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7AIn some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) displays a portion of a first user interface (e.g., 602), displays a second set of one or more user interface elements (e.g., 620a-620c and / or 622) at a first brightness (e.g., 1 lux, 3 lux, or 5 lux) (e.g., the second set of one or more user interface elements indicates a time and / or date) (e.g., the computer system performs one or more functions (e.g., turns on a light coupled to the computer system and / or launches a camera application) in response to detecting that one or more user interface elements are selected). In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) transitions from a first mode of the second user interface (e.g., 602) to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D In some embodiments, the computer system dims the second group of one or more user interface elements simultaneously. In some embodiments, the computer system dims the second group of one or more user interface elements sequentially. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays a group of user interface objects on the first user interface and the second user interface, wherein the group of user interface objects displayed on the first user interface and the second user interface are displayed with the same brightness. Dimming the brightness of the second group of one or more user interface elements from the first brightness to the second brightness when specified conditions are met allows the computer system to automatically manage the display brightness of various user interface elements to optionally save battery power, which is performed when a set of conditions are met. Dimming the brightness of the second set of one or more user interface elements from a first brightness to a second brightness when the computer system transitions from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user regarding the operating mode of the computer system, which provides improved visual feedback.

[0252] In some embodiments, as in the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A As part of displaying the first user interface (e.g., 602) as described above, the computer system displays a third set of one or more user interface elements (e.g., 612, 614, 620a-620c, and / or 622) with one or more visual attributes (e.g., size, shape, color, clarity, orientation, and / or display position) (e.g., the third set of one or more user interface elements indicates a time and / or date) (e.g., the computer system performs one or more functions (e.g., turns on a light coupled to the computer system and / or launches a camera application) in response to detecting that the third set of one or more user interface elements are selected). In some embodiments, as part of transitioning the computer system (e.g., 600) from a first mode of the second user interface (e.g., 602) to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D In some embodiments, the computer system changes the visual properties of the third group of one or more user interface elements as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a specified condition is met (e.g., in response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition), the computer system changes the visual properties of the third group of one or more user interface elements (e.g., changing the size of the third group of one or more user interface elements, changing the location where the third group of one or more user interface elements are displayed, blurring the visual appearance of the third group of one or more user interface elements, rotating the third group of one or more user interface elements). In some embodiments, the computer system changes the visual properties of one or more user interface elements simultaneously. In some embodiments, the computer system changes the visual properties of one or more user interface elements sequentially. Changing the visual properties of the third group of one or more user interface elements as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a specified condition is met (e.g., in response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition) allows the computer system to automatically manage the displayed appearance of the third group of user interface elements, which performs the operation when a set of conditions are met.

[0253] In some embodiments, as a means of switching the computer system from a first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A as described above) to transition to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7DIn some embodiments, the computer system displays a fourth set of one or more user interface elements (e.g., 620a-620c and / or 622) (e.g., the fourth set of one or more user interface elements indicates a time and / or date) (e.g., the computer system performs one or more functions (e.g., turns on a light integrated in the computer system and / or launches a camera application) in response to detecting that the fourth set of one or more user interface elements are selected. In some embodiments, the second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C and Figure 7F In some embodiments, as a means of switching a computer system (e.g., 600) from a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ) to a third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7F In some embodiments, the computer system stops displaying the fourth set of one or more user interface elements as part of transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the third mode when a condition is met (e.g., in response to detecting an occurrence of the first condition), the computer system stops displaying the fourth set of one or more user interface elements. In some embodiments, the computer system stops displaying the fourth set of one or more user interface elements simultaneously. In some embodiments, the computer system stops displaying the fourth set of one or more user interface elements sequentially. Stopping display of the fourth set of one or more user interface elements as part of transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the third mode when a condition is met (e.g., in response to detecting an occurrence of the first condition) allows the computer system to automatically manage whether the fourth set of one or more user interface elements are displayed to optionally conserve battery power, which operates when a set of conditions are met.

[0254] In some embodiments, the third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7FThe ) is a display off state (e.g., the display generating component of the computer system is not illuminated (e.g., the display generating component is in a sleep mode (e.g., where the display generating component does not display anything)). In some embodiments, when the computer system is in the display off state, the computer system displays the first user interface in the first mode in response to detecting an input (e.g., a tap on the display generating component and / or activation of a hardware button). Transitioning the computer system to the display off state as part of transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the third mode when a specified condition is met (e.g., in response to detecting the occurrence of a second condition) allows the computer system to automatically manage the display state of the display of the computer system to optionally save battery power, which performs operations when a set of conditions are met.

[0255] In some embodiments, the first condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650a, 650c, 650i, Figures 6E to 6F and / or 7A to 7B The description) corresponds to a computer system (e.g., 600) being inactive (e.g., no user interaction detected by the computer system) for a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 3 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 3 minutes, or 5 minutes) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 6E to 6F By transitioning the computer system from a first mode to a second mode based on computer system inactivity, a user can manage the mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.

[0256] In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) includes one or more hardware controls (e.g., 628). In some embodiments, the first condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650a, 650c, 650i, Figures 6E to 6F and / or 7A to 7B The ) corresponds to activation (e.g., selection (e.g., selection by a user of the computer system)) of one or more hardware controls (e.g., a sleep button of the computer system) (e.g., a volume button of the computer system) (e.g., selection of a power button of the computer system) (e.g., a button coupled (wirelessly or wired) to the computer system). In some embodiments, selection of one or more hardware controls corresponds to a short press (e.g., pressing and releasing). In some embodiments, selection of one or more hardware controls corresponds to a long press (e.g., pressing and holding). Transitioning the computer system from a first mode to a second mode in response to detecting activation of one or more hardware controls provides the user with the ability to manage the mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.

[0257] In some embodiments, the computer system detects a tap gesture (e.g., 650d) such as a tap performed by a user (e.g., a tap gesture) (e.g., detecting a tap on a display generating component in communication with the computer system) (e.g., detecting a tap when the computer system is not in the first mode). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the tap gesture and based on determining that the computer system (e.g., 600) is in the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ), the computer system transitions from the second mode to the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A In some embodiments, in response to detecting the tap gesture and based on determining that the computer system is in the third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and / or Figure 7F In some embodiments, the computer system transitions from the third mode to the first mode (e.g., and displays the first user interface). In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the third mode or the second mode to the first mode includes displaying an animation of one or more user interface elements fading in. In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the first mode includes changing the visual appearance (e.g., size, clarity, orientation, color, brightness, display position, and / or font) of one or more user interface elements. In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the third mode or the second mode to the first mode includes displaying the corresponding user interface that was displayed before the computer system entered the third mode or the second mode. Transitioning the computer system from the second mode and / or the third mode to the first mode in response to detecting a tap input provides the user with the ability to manage the mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.

[0258] In some embodiments, the computer system detects a swipe gesture (e.g., 650f) (e.g., a vertical swipe gesture, a horizontal swipe gesture, a diagonal swipe gesture, and / or a multi-directional swipe gesture) (e.g., a swipe gesture performed by a user) (e.g., detecting a swipe gesture on a display generating component in communication with the computer system) (e.g., detecting a swipe gesture when the computer system is not in the first mode). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the swipe gesture and based on determining that the computer system (e.g., 600) is in the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ), the computer system transitions from the second mode to the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A In some embodiments, in response to detecting the swipe gesture and based on determining that the computer system is in the third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7F In some embodiments, the computer system transitions from the third mode to the first mode (e.g., and displays the first user interface). In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the third mode or the second mode to the first mode includes displaying an animation of one or more user interface elements fading in. In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the first mode includes changing the visual appearance (e.g., size, clarity, orientation, color, brightness, display position, and / or font) of one or more user interface elements. In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the third mode or the second mode to the first mode includes displaying the corresponding user interface that was displayed before the computer system entered the third mode or the second mode. Transitioning the computer system from the second mode and / or the third mode to the first mode in response to detecting a swipe gesture provides the user with the ability to manage the mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.

[0259] In some embodiments, the computer system detects activation (e.g., via 650o) of a hardware control (e.g., 628) (e.g., a sleep button, a volume button, and / or a power button) (e.g., the activation of the hardware control is performed by a user) (e.g., detecting activation of the hardware control when the computer system is not in the first mode). In some embodiments, in response to detecting activation of the hardware control and based on determining that the computer system (e.g., 600) is in the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ), the computer system transitions from the second mode to the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A In some embodiments, in response to detecting activation of the hardware control and based on determining that the computer system is in the third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7F In some embodiments, the computer system is transitioned from the third mode to the first mode (e.g., and displays the first user interface). In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the third mode or the second mode to the first mode includes displaying an animation of one or more user interface elements fading in. In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the first mode includes changing the visual appearance (e.g., size, clarity, orientation, color, brightness, display position, and / or font) of one or more user interface elements. In some embodiments, transitioning the computer system from the third mode or the second mode to the first mode includes displaying the corresponding user interface displayed before the computer system entered the third mode or the second mode. In some embodiments, activation of the hardware control is a short press (e.g., press and release). In some embodiments, activation of the hardware control is a long press (e.g., press and hold). Transitioning the computer system from the second mode and / or the third mode to the first mode in response to detecting activation of the hardware control provides the user with the ability to manage the mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional display controls.

Transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the third mode in response to detecting a change in the context of the computer system provides the user with the ability to manage the display mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls to optionally conserve battery power, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional display controls.

[0261] In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) communicates (e.g., wirelessly or wired) with an external device (e.g., 708) (e.g., an external device worn by a user) (e.g., a smart device (e.g., a smartwatch) worn by a user). In some embodiments, the distance between the computer system (e.g., 600) and the external device (e.g., 708) is a first distance (e.g., 1 foot, 5 feet, 10 feet, 20 feet, 50 feet, or 100 feet). In some embodiments, when the computer system is in a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ), the computer system detects a first change in the distance between the computer system and the external device from a first distance to a second distance (e.g., as described above with respect to 7A to 7D In some embodiments, in response to detecting a change in the distance between the computer system and the external device from the first distance to the second distance and in accordance with determining that the second distance is greater than a distance threshold (e.g., 5 feet, 10 feet, 15 feet, 20 feet, 50 feet, or 100 feet) (e.g., as described above with respect to 7A to 7D ), the computer system transitions from the second mode to the third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7FIn some embodiments, the computer system remains in the second mode based on a determination that the distance between the computer system and the external device is less than a distance threshold. In some embodiments, when the computer system is in the first mode, the computer system detects a first change in the distance between the computer system and the external device from the first distance to the third distance, and in response to detecting a change in the distance between the computer system and the external device from the first distance to the third distance and in response to determining that the third distance is greater than the distance threshold, the computer system transitions from the first mode to the third mode.

[0263] In some embodiments, upon detecting a second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C and Figure 7F After the occurrence of the above, the computer system is in the first mode (for example, as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A In some embodiments, when the first user interface is displayed in the first mode, the computer system detects a first condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650a, 650c, 650i, 650n, Figures 6E to 6F and / or 7A to 7B In some embodiments, in response to detecting a second occurrence of the first condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650n) and based on determining that the computer system (e.g., 600) is in Do Not Disturb mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6N The computer system transitions from the first mode to the third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to the computer system) (e.g., a mode in which notifications (e.g., text message notifications, phone call notifications, and / or notifications generated from applications installed on the computer system) are suppressed (e.g., the computer system does not present notifications). Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7F as described above) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 6N to 6OThe computer system is in Do Not Disturb mode (e.g., when the computer system is in Do Not Disturb mode, the second mode of the computer system is suppressed). In some embodiments, the computer system is transitioned from the first mode to the second mode in response to detecting a second occurrence of the first condition and based on a determination that the computer system is not in Do Not Disturb mode. Transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the third mode in response to detecting a second occurrence of the first condition when the condition is met (e.g., the computer system is in Do Not Disturb mode) allows the computer system to automatically manage the lighting of the display of the computer system to optionally save battery power, which performs operations when a set of conditions are met without the need for additional user input. Transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the third mode in response to detecting a second occurrence of the first condition and based on a determination that the computer system is in Do Not Disturb mode provides visual feedback to the user as to whether the computer system is in Do Not Disturb mode, which provides improved visual feedback.

[0264] In some embodiments, upon detecting a second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C and Figure 7F After the occurrence of the above, the computer system is in the second mode (for example, as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D In some embodiments, the computer system detects a second occurrence of the second condition in response to detecting the second occurrence of the second condition and based on determining that the computer system (e.g., 600) has been performing a task from detecting the second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C ,and Figure 7F If the computer system detects a user interaction (e.g., as described above with respect to 650h) within a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 10 seconds, 30 seconds, or 1 minute) since the second occurrence of the control (e.g., the computer system has detected a user input (e.g., a tap on a display generating component, a swipe gesture on a display generating component, activation of a hardware control, and / or a boost of the computer system)), the computer system forgoes transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C ,and Figure 7FIn some embodiments, the computer system transitions from the second mode to the third mode in response to detecting a second occurrence of the second condition and based on determining that the user has not interacted with the computer system within a predetermined amount of time since the occurrence of the second condition was detected. Forgoing the transition from the second mode to the third mode in response to detecting a second occurrence of the second condition when a specified condition is met (based on determining that the computer system has detected a user interaction within a predetermined amount of time since the second occurrence of the second condition was detected) allows the computer system to automatically prevent the display of the computer system from entering a display off state when the user has an increased interest in the display of the computer system, which is performed when a set of conditions are met. Forgoing the transition from the second mode to the third mode in response to detecting a second occurrence of the second condition and based on determining that the computer system has detected a user interaction within a predetermined amount of time since the second occurrence of the second condition was detected provides visual feedback to the user about the state of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system has recently detected a user interaction), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0265] In some embodiments, upon detecting a second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C and Figure 7F After the occurrence of the above, the computer system is in the first mode (for example, as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A In some embodiments, when the first user interface is displayed in the first mode, the computer system detects a first condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650a, 650c, 650i, 650s, Figures 6E to 6F and / or 7A to 7B In some embodiments, in response to detecting the third occurrence of the first condition (e.g., as described above) and based on determining that the computer system (e.g., 600) is in a low power mode (e.g., when the computer system is in low power mode, the computer system reduces functionality) (e.g., when the computer system is in low power mode, the computer system reduces background activity) (e.g., the low power mode may be entered automatically (e.g., when the computer system's battery is below a threshold, or the computer system may prompt a user to enter low power mode), the computer system transitions the computer system from the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 6S to 6T described) to a third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7F In some embodiments, the computer system is switched from the first mode to the second mode in response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition and based on determining that the computer system is not in low power mode. In some embodiments, the computer system automatically (e.g., without intervening user input) enters low power mode when the power level of the computer system is below a threshold level. Switching the computer system from the first mode to the third mode in response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition and when a specified condition is met (e.g., the computer system is in low power mode) allows the computer system to automatically manage the lighting of the computer system's display to optionally conserve battery power when conservation of the computer system's battery is of increased importance, which is performed when a set of conditions are met.

[0266] In some embodiments, the second condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 650c, 650j, Figures 7B to 7C and Figure 7F The occurrence of the (described) corresponds to a user input (e.g., explicit user input (e.g., input corresponding to a user's intent to place the computer system into the third mode)) (e.g., user activation of a hardware control button and / or a hand cover gesture (e.g., a hand cover gesture covering one or more sensors coupled to the computer system). In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) can only be switched from the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D ) to a third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and Figure 7F In some embodiments, the computer system transitions from the first mode to the second mode in response to detecting the occurrence of the second condition. Transitioning the computer system from the second mode to the third mode in response to detecting user input provides the user with the ability to manage the display mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.

[0267] In some embodiments, when the computer system (e.g., 600) is in the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D described above) or a third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and / or Figure 7F ), the computer system detects the transition of the computer system to the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A In some embodiments, in response to detecting the first request to transition the computer system to the first mode and based on determining that the computer system is in the second mode, the computer system transitions the computer system from the second mode to the first mode. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the first request to transition the computer system to the first mode and based on determining that the computer system is in the third mode, the computer system transitions the computer system from the third mode to the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D and Figure 6K Transitioning the computer system from the second mode or the third mode to the first mode in response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to the first mode provides a user with the ability to manage the display mode of the computer system without displaying additional controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.

[0268] In some embodiments, a certain amount of time (e.g., 15 seconds, 30 seconds, or 1 minute) has passed since the computer system (e.g., 600) detected the hand covering gesture (e.g., a gesture comprising a user placing their hand over one or more sensors coupled to the computer system (e.g., such as 650c and / or 650j)). In some embodiments, when the computer system is in the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7D described above) or a third mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6D 、 Figure 6O 、 Figure 6T 、 Figure 7C and / or Figure 7F ), the computer system detects that the computer system is placed in a first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A In some embodiments, in response to detecting the second request to transition the computer system to the first mode and based on determining that the amount of time is greater than a time threshold (e.g., 15 seconds, 30 seconds, or 1 minute), the computer system transitions to the first mode. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the second request to transition the computer system to the first mode and based on determining that the amount of time is less than the time threshold, the computer system abandons transitioning the computer system to the first mode (e.g., the computer system is maintained in the second mode or the third mode). Abandoning the transition of the computer system from the second mode or the third mode to the first mode in response to detecting the second request to transition the computer system when the condition is met (e.g., based on determining that the amount of time is less than the time threshold) allows the computer system to automatically manage (e.g., maintain) the display mode of the computer system when certain conditions are met, which performs operations when a set of conditions are met.

[0269] In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) is located in a physical environment. In some embodiments, as the computer system transitions from a first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6E 、 Figure 6G 、 Figure 6H 、 Figures 6L to 6N 、 Figures 6P to 6S and / or Figure 7A as described above) to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6B 、 Figure 6C 、 Figure 6F 、 Figure 6J 、 Figure 6K 、 Figure 7B and / or Figure 7DAs part of a transition to the second mode, the computer system: based on determining that the physical environment has a first amount of brightness (e.g., 0.1 lux, 0.3 lux, 0.5 lux, 1 lux, 5 lux, 10 lux, 13 lux, 15 lux, or 20 lux) (e.g., natural brightness or artificial brightness), displays a second user interface (e.g., 602) at a first amount of brightness (e.g., 0.1 lux, 0.3 lux, 0.5 lux, 1 lux, 5 lux, 10 lux, 13 lux, 15 lux, or 20 lux); and based on determining that the physical environment has a second amount of brightness greater than the first amount of brightness, displays the second user interface at a second amount of brightness greater than the first amount of brightness (e.g., when the computer system is in the second mode, the brightness of the display of the computer system depends on at least the brightness of the physical environment). In some embodiments, the brightness of the display of the computer system is dynamically updated based on changes in the brightness of the physical environment (e.g., the brightness of the computer system changes in real time as the brightness of the physical environment changes (e.g., the darker the physical environment, the darker the brightness of the computer system). Displaying the second user interface at a first amount of brightness when a first set of conditions is met and displaying the second user interface at a second amount of brightness when a second set of conditions is met allows a computer system to automatically adjust the brightness of the computer system's display based on ambient lighting, performing the operation when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input.

[0270] Note that the process described above with respect to method 800 (e.g., Figure 8 ) also apply in a similar manner to the methods described below. For example, methods 1000 and 1200 optionally include one or more features of the various methods described above with reference to method 800. For example, methods for suppressing low-power states when the computer system is in the corresponding mode can be applied to methods 1000 and 1200. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated below.

[0271] Figures 9A to 9V Illustrated are exemplary user interfaces for transitioning between display states of a display according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the following description of the user interfaces including Figure 10 The process of the process.

[0272] exist Figure 9A At , the computer system 600 is in a normal power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a bright appearance. Figure 6AAs described in more detail in the discussion of , wake screen user interface 602 includes a battery indicator 608a, a cellular signal indicator 608b, a time indicator 618, a date indicator 616, a row of complication tiles 620, a home enable indication 622, a flash enable indication 614, and a camera enable indication 612. For purposes of the following discussion, wake screen user interface 602 is a user interface of the first type (e.g., a corresponding user interface including wallpaper 606) (e.g., a user interface that is initially displayed by computer system 600 after computer system 600 transitions from a sleep state to an active state (e.g., computer system 600 “wakes up”)). Figure 9A At 950a, computer system 600 detects activation 628 of hardware control 628 while computer system 600 is displaying a first type of user interface.

[0273] exist Figure 9B1 At 950a, in response to detecting activation 950a of hardware control 628, computer system 600 begins transitioning from the normal power state to the low power state. Figure 9B1 The first image of a sequence of images represents a first animation displayed by computer system 600 as part of a transition from a normal power state to a low power state. Because computer system 600 was displaying the first type of user interface when computer system 600 detected activation 950a of hardware control 628, computer system 600 displays the first animation (e.g., instead of the second animation) as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state. In some embodiments, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state based on determining that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., and not in response to detection of an input).

[0274] As described above, the wake screen user interface 602 includes a wallpaper 606 that includes visual elements (e.g., depictions of individuals). The wake screen user interface 602 is divided into a foreground portion and a background portion. The foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 includes visual elements of the wallpaper 606, while the background portion of the wake screen user interface 602 does not include visual elements of the wallpaper 606. Figure 9B1 At 10:00, the computer system 600 begins applying a plurality of visual processes to the wake screen user interface 602 when the computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state. Because the wake screen user interface 602 includes a foreground portion and a background portion, the visual processes modify the visual appearance of the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 relative to the background portion of the wake screen user interface 602. Both the background portion and the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 are modified so that content (e.g., a depiction of an individual) included in the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 remains visible.

[0275] exist Figure 9B1 At , as part of the first animation, the computer system 600 applies a vignette effect to the wake screen user interface 602. The computer system 600 displays the periphery of the wake screen user interface 602 with reduced brightness and / or saturation compared to the center of the wake screen user interface 602. In addition, as part of displaying the first animation, the computer system 600 reduces the saturation of the wake screen user interface 602 (e.g., the computer system 600 uniformly or non-uniformly reduces the saturation of the wake screen user interface 602). In addition, as part of displaying the first animation, the computer system 600 dims the display of the homepage affordance 622 of the wake screen user interface 602. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 changes the color of the time indicator 618 from the first color to a second color that has a lower amount of contrast for the modified background of the wake screen user interface 602.

[0276] exist Figure 9B1 At 1: 100 ms, the computer system 600 dims both the background portion of the wake screen user interface 602 and the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602. However, during the first animation, the computer system 600 dims the background portion of the wake screen user interface 602 more than the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602. Dimming the background portion of the wake screen user interface 602 more than the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 helps maintain visibility of visual content included in the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602. Dimming the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 less than the background portion of the wake screen user interface 602 results in an increase in contrast between the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 and the background portion of the wake screen user interface 602. In some embodiments, when the wake screen user interface 602 does not have a foreground portion and a background portion, the computer system 600 applies the dimming process uniformly to the wake screen user interface 602.

[0277] exist Figure 9B1 At this point, content (e.g., a depiction of an individual) included in the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 does not overlap with the display of the time indicator 618. The computer system 600 shifts the display position of the content in the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 relative to the time indicator 618 so that the content does not overlap with the time indicator 618 during the first animation. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 shifts the display position of the time indicator 618 so that the time indicator does not overlap with the foreground portion of the wallpaper 606. In some embodiments, as part of displaying the first animation, the computer system 600 reduces the size of the content in the foreground portion of the wake screen user interface 602 (e.g., so that the content in the foreground does not overlap with the time indicator 618).

[0278] exist Figure 9B1 At , computer system 600 is fading the display of camera enable indication 612, flash enable indication 614, battery indicator 608a, and cellular signal indicator 608b from wake screen user interface 602. Accordingly, as Figure 9B2 As shown, the computer system 600 displays the camera enable indication 612, the flash enable indication 614, the battery indicator 608a, and the cellular signal indicator 608b with reduced brightness (e.g., Figure 9A In some embodiments, the display of the first animation includes blurring (e.g., visually blurring) at least one of the camera enable indication 612, the flash enable indication 614, the battery indicator 608a, and the cellular signal indicator 608b. In some embodiments, during display of the first animation, the computer system 600 slightly reduces the brightness of the status information (e.g., the time indicator 618, the date indicator 616, the cellular signal indicator 608b, and / or the battery indicator 608a) (e.g., by less than 20%), while the computer system 600 significantly reduces (e.g., by more than 50%) the overall brightness of the wake screen user interface 602.

[0279] Figure 9B2 The second image in the sequence of images represents a first animation displayed by the computer system 600 as part of a transition from a normal power state to a low power state. The computer system 600 gradually applies the above-described visual processing to the wake screen user interface 602 during the duration of the first animation. Figure 9B2 The intensity of the effect of the above visual processing increases (e.g., with Figure 9B1 compared to the strength of the effect of visual processing at the

[0280] exist Figure 9B2 At , computer system 600 continues to dim home affordance 622, and computer system 600 continues to dim the foreground portion of wake screen user interface 602 relative to the background portion of wake screen user interface 602. Figure 9B2 At, with Figure 9B1 The wake-up screen user interface 602 has a reduced overall brightness compared to the wake-up screen user interface 602 at . Continuing to dim the foreground portion of the wake-up screen user interface 602 relative to the background portion of the wake-up screen user interface 602 increases the contrast level between the foreground portion of the wake-up screen user interface 602 and the background portion of the wake-up screen user interface 602. Figure 9B2 At , the computer system 600 continues to shift the visual elements of the wallpaper 606 from the time indicator 618. Thus, at Figure 9B2At this point, there is more space between the time indicator 618 and the visual elements of the wallpaper 606 (e.g., Figure 9B1 6).

[0281] In addition, Figure 9B2 At , the computer system 600 continues to fade the display of the camera enable indication 612, the flash enable indication 614, the battery indicator 608a, and the cellular signal indicator 608b from the wake screen user interface 602. Figure 9B2 As shown, the computer system 600 displays the camera enable indication 612, the flash enable indication 614, the battery indicator 608a, and the cellular signal indicator 608b with reduced brightness (e.g., Figure 9B1 612, flash light enable indication 614, battery indicator 608a and cellular signal indicator 608b). Figure 9B2 At , the computer system 600 reduces the thickness of the font of the time indicator 618 (e.g., Figure 9B1 (compared to the thickness of the font of the time indicator at the same time).

[0282] exist Figure 9C At , the computer system 600 is in a low power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 with a dark appearance. Figure 9C At , the first animation of the transition of the computer system 600 from the normal power state to the low power state is completed. Figure 9C At this point, the computer system 600 has applied all of the above-described visual processing (e.g., dimming, vignette effects, desaturation, etc.) to the wake-screen user interface 602.

[0283] exist Figure 9C At , the computer system 600 receives a telecommunication signal corresponding to an electronic message (e.g., a text message). Figure 9C As shown, in response to receiving the telecommunications signal, the computer system 600 displays the notification 904 in a bright appearance within the wake screen user interface 602 (e.g., the text of the notification 904 is black and the background of the notification 904 is white). Figure 9C As shown, the time indicator 618 indicates that the current time is "9:42".

[0284] like Figure 9D As shown, the time indicator 618 indicates that the current time is "9:44". Figure 9C and Figure 9DAs discussed in more detail below, because two minutes have passed since the initial display of notification 904, computer system 600 transitions display of notification 904 from a light appearance to a dark appearance. When notification 904 is displayed in a dark appearance, the text of notification 904 is white and the background of notification 904 is black. Figure 9D At , computer system 600 remains in the low power state (e.g., computer system 600 does not change power state as part of changing the visual appearance of notification 904 from a light appearance to a dark appearance). Figure 9D At 950d, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950d.

[0285] exist Figure 9E At , in response to detecting the tap input 950d, the computer system 600 transitions from the low-power state to the normal power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a light appearance. As part of the transition from the low-power state to the normal power state, the computer system 600 changes the appearance of the notification 904 from a dark appearance to a light appearance. As explained above, when the computer system 600 displays the notification 904 in the light appearance, the computer system 600 displays the text of the notification 904 as black and displays the background of the notification 904 as white. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 does not change the appearance of the notification 904 from a dark appearance to a light appearance as part of the transition from the low-power state to the normal power state. Figure 9E At 900, while computer system 600 is in the normal power state, computer system 600 detects swipe gesture 950e corresponding to selection of home affordance 622. In some embodiments, computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state based on determining that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., and not in response to detection of an input).

[0286] like Figure 9F As shown, in response to detecting a swipe gesture 950e corresponding to selection of home affordance 622, computer system 600 displays home screen user interface 906. Home screen user interface 906 includes a plurality of application icons, wherein each respective application icon corresponds to an application installed on computer system 600. Figure 9F As shown, the home screen user interface 906 includes a map application icon 910 and an internet browser application icon 908. The map application icon 910 corresponds to a map application installed on the computer system 600, and the internet browser application icon 908 corresponds to an internet browser installed on the computer system 600. Figure 6F At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950 f corresponding to a selection of the internet browser application icon 908 .

[0287] like Figure 9G As shown, in response to detecting the tap input 950f, the computer system 600 displays a web page user interface 912. The web page user interface 912 corresponds to a corresponding web page of a corresponding website. The web page user interface 912 is a user interface of a different type than the wake-up screen user interface 602 (e.g., a user interface that does not include the wake-up screen user interface 602) (e.g., a web-based user interface) (e.g., a user interface corresponding to an application installed on the computer system 600). Figure 9G As shown, when the computer system 600 displays the web user interface 912, the computer system 600 displays the home page enable representation 622 in black. Figure 9G At , the home page affordance 622 is darker than the background of the web page user interface 912. Figure 9H At 950h, the computer system 600 detects activation of the hardware control 628 while the computer system 600 is displaying the second type of user interface.

[0288] exist Figure 9H At 950h, in response to detecting activation of the hardware control 628, the computer system 600 begins to transition from the low power state to the normal power state. Figure 9H At 950h, when the computer system 600 detects activation of the hardware control 628, it is determined that the computer system 600 is displaying the second type of user interface. Because the computer system 600 determines that the computer system 600 is displaying the second type of user interface when the computer system 600 detects activation of the hardware control 628, the computer system 600 displays a second animation that is different from the first animation (e.g., as described above) as part of the transition from the normal power state to the low power state. In some embodiments, the second animation spans a longer period of time than the first animation. In some embodiments, the second animation includes a different number of images than the first animation (e.g., more or fewer).

[0289] Figure 9H The first image representing the second animation. Figure 9HAt , as part of displaying the second animation, computer system 600 dims the display of home affordance 622 and uniformly dims the display of web page user interface 912. When computer system 600 displays home affordance 622 and web page user interface 912 as dimmed, computer system 600 displays time indicator 618 (e.g., computer system 600 displays time indicator 618 as faded in). During the second animation, computer system 600 displays various system elements (e.g., time indicator 618, date indicator, complication tile row 620, and wallpaper 606) as fading in sequentially (e.g., one at a time) over the image sequence of the second animation. In some embodiments, computer system 600 displays time indicator 618 before dimming home affordance 622 and web page user interface 912.

Figure 9I At this point, the computer system 600 maintains the dimmed display of the web user interface 912 and the home affordance 622. Figure 9I As shown, the computer system 600 maintains the display of the time indicator 618. Figure 9I At , computer system 600 displays date indicator 616 as fading in while computer system 600 displays time indicator 618, web page user interface 912, and home page affordance 622. In some embodiments, computer system 600 displays date indicator 616 as fading in faster than the display of time indicator 619 fades in. In some embodiments, as part of displaying the fade-in of date indicator 616, computer system 600 changes the display position of time indicator 618.

[0291] Figure 9J The third image represents the second animation. Figure 9J As shown, computer system 600 maintains a dimmed display of web user interface 912 and home affordance 622. Figure 9J As shown, the computer system 600 maintains the display of a date indicator 616 and a time indicator 618. Figure 9J At , the computer system 600 displays the complex function block row 620 as fading in while the computer system 600 displays the time indicator 618, the web page user interface 912, the home page affordance 622, and the date indicator 616. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays each respective complex function block in the complex function block row 620 as fading in simultaneously. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays each respective complex function block in the complex function block row 620 as fading in individually.

[0292] Figure 9K The fourth image represents the second animation. Figure 9KAs shown, computer system 600 maintains a dimmed display of web user interface 912 and home affordance 622. Figure 9K As shown, the computer system 600 maintains the display of a date indicator 616, a time indicator 618, and a complex function block row 620. Figure 9K At , computer system 600 displays wallpaper 606 as fading in while computer system 600 displays complication row 620, time indicator 618, date indicator 616, and web page user interface 912. In some embodiments, computer system 600 initially displays content included in wallpaper 606 as overlaying date indicator 616 and / or time indicator 618, and when computer system 600 displays wallpaper 606 as fading in, computer system 600 shifts the display position of the content included in wallpaper 606.

[0293] Figure 9L1 The fifth image represents the second animation. Figure 9L1 At , the computer system 600 stops displaying the web page user interface 912 and displays the wake screen user interface 602. During the second animation, the computer system 600 will Figures 9B1 to 9B2 The various visual processing described (e.g., vignette effect, desaturation, dimming of the wake-up screen user interface 602) is applied to the wake-up screen user interface 602. The computer system 600 gradually applies the visual processing (e.g., the effect of the visual processing becomes more obvious as the second animation progresses) to the wake-up screen user interface 602 during the duration of the second animation. Figure 9L1 At , the computer system begins dimming the wake-up screen user interface 602 and applies a vignette effect to the wake-up screen user interface 602 .

[0294] exist Figure 9L1 At , as part of displaying the second animation, the computer system 600 causes the display battery indicator 608a and the cellular signal indicator 608b to fade out. Figure 9L1 At , the computer system 600 reduces the thickness of the font of the time indicator 618 (e.g., Figure 9K In some embodiments, the computer system 600 applies various visual treatments to the wake screen user interface 602 at the end of the second animation. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 applies the various visual treatments in a predetermined order. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 applies the various visual treatments randomly. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 applies the various visual treatments at various stages of the second animation.

[0295] exist Figure 9L2At , the computer system 600 has completed the transition from the normal power state to the low power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a dark appearance. Figure 9L2 As shown, computer system 600 displays home affordance 622 in a color that is brighter than the overall brightness of wake screen user interface 602. That is, during the second animation, computer system 600 changes the color of home affordance 622 from having an appearance that is darker than the background of web page user interface 912 to a color that is brighter than the background of wake screen user interface 602. In some embodiments, before displaying the final image of the second animation, computer system 600 displays wake screen user interface 602 at an increased amount of brightness before dimming the brightness of wake screen user interface 602. The above description of the second animation is exemplary and non-limiting. In some embodiments, computer system 600 displays home affordance 622 in a color that is brighter than the overall brightness of wake screen user interface 602. Figures 9H to 9L2 606 as faded in. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the sequence of the complex function tile row 620, the time indicator 618, the web page user interface 912, the date indicator 616, and the wallpaper 606 as faded in in a different order than that shown in FIG. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays two or more of the complex function tile row 620, the time indicator 618, the date indicator 616, and the wallpaper 606 as faded in simultaneously. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 stops displaying the web page user interface 912 before displaying any user interface element as faded in. Figure 9L2 At 9501, when the computer system 600 is in a low power state, the computer system 600 detects a tap input. Figure 9L1 to Figure 9L2 The diagram of the stages of the transition from Figure 9B1 to Figure 9B2 The diagram of the transformation phase is the same, even in Figure 9L1 to Figure 9L2 The device is transitioning from an application to a low-power state and Figures 9B1 to 9B2 In some embodiments, the transition to the low power state is consistent across multiple different user interfaces (e.g., different applications and / or different system user interfaces, such as a home screen with one or more application icons and / or widgets, a system control user interface, or a notification user interface).

[0296] exist Figure 9M At , in response to detecting the tap input 9501, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state and displays the wake screen user interface 602 in a bright appearance. Figure 9M At , computer system 600 detects swipe gesture 950m corresponding to selection of home affordance 622. In some embodiments, computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state based on determining that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., and not in response to detection of an input).

[0297] exist Figure 9N In response to detecting the swipe gesture 950m, the computer system 600 displays the home screen user interface 906. Figure 9N At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950 n corresponding to a selection of the map application icon 910 .

[0298] exist Figure 9O In response to detecting the tap input 950n, the computer system 600 displays a map user interface 920 corresponding to a map application installed on the computer system 600. The computer system 600 uses the GPS signal to display turn-by-turn directions 916 on the map user interface 920. The turn-by-turn directions 916 include a real-time representation of the location of the computer system 600. Figure 9O As shown, the computer system 600 displays a navigation information user interface 914 as part of the map user interface 920. The navigation information user interface 914 includes various information about turn-by-turn directions, such as an estimated time of arrival, how long the trip will take, and how far the destination is from the computer system 600. Figure 9O At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950 o on the navigation information user interface 914 while the computer system is in a normal power state.

[0299] exist Figure 9P At , in response to detecting a tap input 950o on the navigation information user interface 914, the computer system 600 expands the display of the navigation information user interface 914. The expanded version of the navigation information user interface 914 provides the user with additional options, such as adding stops along the route and / or sharing the user's estimated time of arrival with individuals. Figure 9P At , the computer system 600 is in a normal power state. Figure 9P At 950p, computer system 600 detects activation of hardware control 628 while computer system 600 is in a normal power state.

[0300] exist Figure 9Q At , in response to detecting activation 950p of hardware control 628, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state. Figure 9Q At , it is determined that the map application has a low power state (e.g., when the computer system is in a low power state, the map application has limited functionality). Because the map application is determined to have a low power state, the computer system 600 displays the map user interface 920 in the low power state (e.g., instead of displaying the second animation as discussed above).

[0301] exist Figure 9QAt, as part of displaying the map user interface 920 in the low power state, the computer system 600 visually obscures (e.g., blurs and / or dims) the map previously displayed in the Figure 9P When computer system 600 displays a map user interface in a low-power state, computer system 600 visually obscures high-fidelity information (e.g., information that is updated at a high frequency or needs to be updated at a high frequency to ensure information accuracy) with reduced accuracy (e.g., the real-time location of computer system 600). Figure 9Q As shown, when the computer system 600 displays the map user interface 920 in a low power state (e.g., when updating at a low frequency), the computer system 600 maintains a brightness that keeps important information (e.g., estimated time of arrival) accurate. In some embodiments, based on determining that the map application has a dark mode (e.g., a mode in which the computer system 600 displays user interface elements at a reduced overall brightness (e.g., compared to a normal display mode), optionally by reducing the brightness of the background of the corresponding user interface and / or optionally inverting the light / dark contrast relationship between content (e.g., text)), the computer system 600 displays the map user interface 920 in a dark mode. In some embodiments, when it is determined that the corresponding application does not have a low power state, the computer system 600 displays a second animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9H to 9L2 (e.g., causing an animation that wakes up the display of the screen user interface 602) while the computer system 600 displays the corresponding user interface from the corresponding application. Figure 9Q At 950 q, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950 while the computer system 600 is in a low power state.

[0302] exist Figure 9R At , in response to detecting the tap input 950q, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state and displays the map user interface 920 in its normal state. Figure 9R Because computer system 600 is in a normal power state, computer system 600 does not visually obscure high-fidelity information, such as turn-by-turn navigation directions 916 .

[0303] exist Figure 9R At 926, it is determined that the computer system 600 is receiving a request to connect to an external device (for example, the computer system 600 is receiving a phone call). Because it is determined that the computer system 600 is receiving a phone call, the computer system 600 displays a phone call notification 926. Figure 9R As shown, the phone call notification 926 includes a rejection indication 926a and an acceptance indication 926b. Figure 9RAt , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950r corresponding to a selection to accept the indication.

[0304] exist Figure 9S In response to detecting the tap input 950r, the computer system 600 accepts the request to connect to the external device and displays the phone call user interface 930. The phone call user interface 930 is associated with the phone application installed on the computer system 600. Figure 9S As shown, the phone call user interface 930 includes contact information 940. The contact information 940 includes a representation of an individual associated with the external device connected to the computer system 600 (e.g., the individual who owns the external device). Figure 9S As shown, phone call user interface 930 displays phone call affordance group 936. Each respective affordance in phone call affordance group 936 corresponds to a respective phone call function. Computer system 600 executes the respective function in response to detecting input regarding the respective affordance included in phone call affordance group 936. Figure 9S As shown, the telephone call enable indication group 936 includes a mute enable indication 934. Figure 9S At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950s corresponding to a selection of the mute enable indication 934.

[0305] exist Figure 9T In response to detecting the tap input 950s, the computer system 600 enters a silent mode. When in silent mode, the computer system 600 suppresses the transmission of audio data to external devices (e.g., the computer system 600 deactivates one or more microphones of the computer system 600). Figure 9T As shown, when the computer system 600 is in silent mode, the computer system 600 displays the silent enable indication 934 in bold. Figure 9T At , the computer system 600 is in a normal power state. Figure 9T At 950 t , the computer system 600 detects activation of the hardware control 628 .

[0306] exist Figure 9U In response to detecting activation 950t of hardware control 628, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state. Figure 9U At , it is determined that the phone application has a low power state. Because it is determined that the phone application has a low power state, the computer system 600 displays the phone call user interface 930 in the low power state (e.g., instead of displaying the second animation as discussed above). Figure 9UAs shown, when the computer system 600 displays the phone call user interface 930 in a low power state, the computer system displays the phone call user interface 930 with a reduced overall brightness (e.g., with Figure 9T In some embodiments, computer system 600 transitions from the normal power state to the low power state based on determining that a set of one or more criteria are met (e.g., and not in response to detection of an input).

[0307] like Figure 9U As shown, when the computer system 600 displays the phone call user interface 930 in a low power state, the computer system 600 displays each corresponding enable representation in the phone call enable representation group 936 at a reduced brightness, and the computer system 600 maintains the brightness of the contact information 940. When the computer system 600 displays the phone call enable representation group 936 at a reduced brightness, none of the corresponding enable representations included in the enable representation group 936 can be selected. In some embodiments, when the phone call user interface 930 is displayed in a low power state, the computer system 600 displays each enable representation in the phone call enable representation group 936 with a blurred visual appearance. In some embodiments, when the computer system 600 displays the phone call user interface 930 in a low power state, the computer system 600 stops displaying each corresponding enable representation in the phone call enable representation group 936. Figure 9U At , when the computer system is in a low power state, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 950u at the display location of the mute enable indication 934.

[0308] exist Figure 9V At , in response to detecting the tap input 950u, the computer system 600 transitions from the low power state to the normal power state. Figure 9V At this point, because the computer system 600 is not in a low power state, the computer system 600 displays the phone call user interface 930 at its normal brightness. Figure 9V As shown, computer system 600 displays mute affordance 934 as active (e.g., computer system 600 displays mute affordance 934 as bold). Because computer system 600 was in a low-power state when it detected tap input 950u at the display location of mute affordance 934, tap input 950u does not correspond to a selection of mute affordance 934.

[0309] Figure 101 is a flowchart illustrating a method for transitioning between display states of a display using a computer system according to some embodiments. Method 1000 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500) in communication with a display generation component. Some operations in method 1000 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

[0310] As described below, method 1000 provides an intuitive way to transition between display states of a display. This method reduces the cognitive burden on a user of transitioning between display states of a display, thereby creating a more efficient human-computer interface. For battery-powered computing devices, enabling a user to transition between display states of a display more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

[0311] A computer system (e.g., 600) displays (1002) a first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) via a display generation component (e.g., 610) (e.g., a user interface corresponding to an application installed on the computer system by a manufacturer of the computer system (e.g., a home screen or wake-up screen of an operating system of the computer system) or a user interface corresponding to another application such as a third-party application installed on the computer system).

[0312] When the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) is displayed and when the computer system (e.g., 600) is in the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 9A 、 Figure 9E 、 Figure 9G 、 Figure 9O 、 Figure 9R 、 Figure 9S and / or Figure 9V The computer system detects (1004) an occurrence of a condition (e.g., as described with respect to 950a, 950g, 950p, and / or 950t) (e.g., the occurrence of the condition indicates reduced user activity or reduced user interaction with the computer system (e.g., the passage of a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 5 seconds, 25 seconds, or 45 seconds) during which the computer system detects no user interaction)) when the computer system is in a higher power consumption mode (e.g., a mode corresponding to higher power consumption than a lower power consumption mode) (e.g., a mode corresponding to a brighter display, improved performance, and / or more frequent display updates)) (e.g., detecting an input (e.g., a tap gesture, a swipe input, an input on a hardware button coupled to the computer system, and / or a hand covering)).

[0313] In response to detecting (1006) an occurrence of a condition (e.g., as described with respect to 950a, 950g, 950p, and / or 950t) and in accordance with determining that the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) corresponds to a first type of user interface (e.g., 602) (e.g., a user interface corresponding to a wake-up user interface (e.g., a user interface that the computer system initially displays after the computer system transitions from a sleep state to a wake-up state)), the computer system (e.g., 600) switches from a first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 9A 、 Figure 9E 、 Figure 9G 、 Figure 9O 、 Figure 9R 、 Figure 9S and / or Figure 9V ) transition (1008) to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9H to 9L2 、 Figure 9Q and / or Figure 9U As described above), the second mode is a mode of the display generation component (e.g., 610) of the computer system that consumes less power than the first mode (e.g., a lower power consumption mode (e.g., the power consumption in the second mode is lower than the power consumption in the first mode)) (e.g., a second brightness that is less than the brightness of the first mode). As part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode, the computer system displays a first animation (e.g., as described above with respect to the first mode) via the display generation component. Figures 9A to 9E discussed) (e.g., including an animation that reduces the brightness of the computer system's display) (e.g., including an animation that fades out the first user interface and / or fades in the second user interface) (e.g., including an animation that stops displaying a subset of user interface objects included in the first user interface) (e.g., including an animation that changes the appearance of user interface objects included in the first user interface), which causes the second user interface (e.g., 912, 920 and / or 930) to be displayed in the second mode (e.g., a dimmed version of the wake-up screen of the computer system) (e.g., displaying the second user interface while the computer system is in the second mode) (e.g., not displaying the first user interface when the second user interface is displayed).

[0314] In response to detecting (1006) the occurrence of a condition (e.g., as described with respect to 950a, 950g, 950p, and / or 950t) and in accordance with determining that the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) corresponds to a second type of user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) (e.g., a user interface corresponding to an application (e.g., an application installed on the computer system by the manufacturer of the computer system (e.g., an application corresponding to the operating system of the computer system) and / or a third-party application installed on the computer system), the computer system (e.g., 600) switches from the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 9A 、 Figure 9E 、 Figure 9G 、 Figure 9O 、 Figure 9R 、 Figure 9S and / or Figure 9V ) transition (1010) to a second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9H to 9L2 、 Figure 9Q and / or Figure 9U As part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode, the computer system displays, via display generation components (e.g., 610), a second animation (e.g., as described above with respect to the first animation) that is different from the first animation. Figures 9H to 9K 、 Figure 9Q and / or Figure 9U In some embodiments, the first user interface is displayed in a second mode. ... In some embodiments, the first animation includes a first portion and a second portion, and the second animation includes a first portion and a second portion, and the first portion of the first animation is different from the first portion of the second animation (e.g., Figures 9A to 9B1 and Figures 9G to 9K ), and the second part of the first animation is the same as the second part of the second animation (e.g., as Figures 9B1 to 9B2 and Figure 9L1 to Figure 9L2Displaying the first animation or the second animation that causes the second user interface to be displayed in the second mode in response to detecting the occurrence of the condition when the condition is satisfied allows the computer system to automatically manage the sequence of images displayed as part of the computer system transitioning from the first mode to the second mode, which performs an operation when a set of conditions are satisfied. Displaying the first animation or the second animation that causes the display of the second user interface provides visual feedback to the user regarding the status of the computer system (e.g., that the computer system has detected the occurrence of the condition), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0315] As a first animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9A to 9C As part of the above discussion), the computer system dims (e.g., non-uniformly dims) the first wallpaper (e.g., the visual elements (still photos and / or animations) displayed in the background of the first user interface and / or the second user interface) and displays the second animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9H to 9L2 、 Figure 9Q and / or Figure 9U In some embodiments, the first wallpaper is dimmed to a greater extent than the first animation. In some embodiments, the first wallpaper is dimmed more during the first animation than during the second animation. In some embodiments, the first wallpaper is dimmed more during the second animation than during the first animation. In some embodiments, the first wallpaper is dimmed unevenly. Dimming the first wallpaper as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user regarding the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0316] As a way of displaying the second animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9H to 9L2 、 Figure 9Q and / or Figure 9UAs part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when certain conditions are met (e.g., based on determining that the first user interface corresponds to the second type of user interface), displaying the second user interface at the first brightness level before displaying the second user interface at the second brightness level allows the computer system to automatically dim the display of the second user interface to optionally save battery power, which is performed when a set of conditions are met.

[0317] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a first set of one or more system elements (e.g., 616, 618, and / or 620) (e.g., selectable lock screen controls and / or status information (e.g., information related to the state of the computer system and / or information related to the date and / or time)). In some embodiments, as a first animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9A to 9E As part of a first animation (e.g., one or more system elements are displayed as blurred in a second user interface at the end of a first animation) the computer system visually blurs one or more system elements (e.g., the one or more system elements are displayed as blurred in a second user interface) (e.g., the system elements are not selectable when the system elements are displayed as visually blurred). In some embodiments, blurring the first set of one or more system elements includes blurring fewer than all system elements included in the first type of user interface. In some embodiments, in response to the computer system detecting an input (e.g., user input on a surface of a display generating component and / or selection of a hardware button coupled to the computer system), the first set of one or more system elements ceases to be displayed as blurred. In some embodiments, blurring the one or more system elements causes the one or more system elements to cease being displayed. Visually blurring the one or more system elements when specified conditions are met (e.g., based on determining that the first user interface corresponds to a first type of user interface) allows the computer system to automatically manage the display of the one or more system elements to optionally conserve battery power, which operates when a set of conditions are met.

[0318] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) (e.g., where the first user interface is a first type of user interface) includes a second set of one or more system elements (e.g., 612 and / or 614) (e.g., one or more system elements are selectable when the first user interface is displayed) (e.g., information related to the state of the computer system and / or information related to the date and / or time). In some embodiments, the second user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) does not include the second set of one or more system elements (e.g., displaying the first animation includes ceasing to display the second set of one or more system elements). In some embodiments, the first user interface ceases to be displayed in response to one or more system elements being selected. In some embodiments, the first user interface remains displayed in response to one or more system elements being selected. Ceasing to display the second set of one or more system elements as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user regarding the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0319] In some embodiments, a first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) (e.g., where the first user interface is a user interface of the first type) includes a home screen affordance (e.g., 622) (e.g., the home screen affordance is a graphical element indicating a location where a primary navigation gesture (e.g., a swipe gesture) can be detected by the computer system) (e.g., the home screen of the computer system is displayed in response to the computer system detecting the primary navigation gesture on the home screen affordance), the home screen affordance having a first visual appearance that is darker than a background of the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) (e.g., darker than the average brightness of the first user interface). In some embodiments, a second user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a home screen affordance having a second visual appearance that is brighter than a background of the second user interface (e.g., the second visual appearance is darker than the first visual appearance) (e.g., displaying the first animation includes dimming the visual appearance of the home screen affordance). In some embodiments, while the home screen affordance is displayed in the second visual appearance, the home screen affordance is inactive (e.g., the computer system is not responsive to a primary navigation gesture). In some embodiments, while the home screen affordance is displayed in the second visual appearance, the computer system displays the first user interface in response to detecting a primary navigation gesture. Changing the display of the home screen affordance from an appearance that is darker than a background of the first user interface to an appearance that is lighter than a background of the second user interface as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user about the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0320] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) (e.g., where the first user interface corresponds to a first type of user interface) includes a first foreground portion (e.g., including a first set of content visible to the user) having first content (e.g., an image) and a first background portion having a first visual appearance (e.g., the foreground portion is displayed as overlaying on top of the background portion). In some embodiments, the second user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a second foreground portion having the first content and a second background portion having a second visual appearance (e.g., different from the first visual appearance). In some embodiments, the first content is more visible (e.g., brighter) than the second background portion (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 9CAs discussed). (For example, displaying the first animation includes modifying the background portion (for example, and modifying the visual appearance of the foreground portion) so that when the computer system is in the second mode, the content in the foreground portion is more visible (for example, remains visible) than the background portion (for example, remains visible to the user). In some embodiments, the computer system modifies the background portion but not the foreground portion. In some embodiments, the background portion includes content that was obscured by content in the foreground before the computer system displayed the first animation. In some embodiments, when content included in the foreground portion obscures content included in the background portion, displaying the first animation includes shifting the content included in the foreground portion so that the content included in the foreground portion does not obscure content included in the background portion. Increasing the visibility of the first content relative to the background of the first user interface as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user about the current operating mode of the computer system (for example, whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0321] In some embodiments, the brightness of the first foreground portion is greater than the brightness of the second foreground portion, and the brightness of the first background portion is greater than the brightness of the second background portion (for example, the average brightness of the first user interface is greater than the average brightness of the second user interface). In some embodiments, the brightness difference between the first foreground portion and the second foreground portion is less than the brightness difference between the first background portion and the second background portion (for example, as described above with respect to Figure 6B and Figures 9A to 9C The foreground portion of the first user interface is dimmed by a first amount (e.g., 1 lux, 3 lux, or 5 lux) (e.g., the brightness of the foreground portion is unevenly dimmed) (e.g., the foreground portion of the first user interface includes content displayed as an overlay on content included in the background portion of the first user interface), and dimming the background portion of the first user interface by a second amount (e.g., 1 lux, 3 lux, or 5 lux) that is greater than the first amount (e.g., the brightness of the background portion is unevenly dimmed). In some embodiments, the amount by which the foreground portion is dimmed is a function of the amount by which the background portion is dimmed. Displaying the foreground portion of the user interface as brighter than the background portion of the user interface when the computer system is in the second mode provides visual feedback to the user about the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0322] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) does not include a vignette effect (e.g., a reduction in the brightness and / or saturation of the computer system at the periphery of the computer system (e.g., the brightness of the computer system's display decreases as the distance to the periphery of the computer system decreases)) (e.g., the computer system is brightest at the center and darkest at the edges of the computer system). In some embodiments, the second user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a vignette effect (e.g., displaying the first animation includes applying a vignette effect to one or more portions (e.g., a foreground portion and / or a background portion) of the first user interface (e.g., less than the entirety of the first user interface (e.g., the computer system does not apply a vignette to status information (e.g., indicating time and date)). In some embodiments, the vignette effect is applied to the background portion of the first user interface rather than the foreground portion of the first user interface. In some embodiments, the vignette effect is applied to both the background portion of the first user interface and the foreground portion of the first user interface. In some embodiments, the vignette effect applied to one or more portions of the first user interface increases as the distance from the center of the display generating component increases. Applying the vignette effect as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user regarding the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0323] In some embodiments, the first foreground portion and the first background portion have a first amount of contrast. In some embodiments, the second foreground portion and the second background portion have a second amount of contrast that is greater than the first amount of contrast (e.g., displaying the first animation includes increasing the amount of contrast between the foreground portion of the first user interface and the background portion of the first user interface) (e.g., increasing the contrast between the foreground portion of the first user interface and the background portion of the first user interface by dimming the foreground portion less than the background portion). Increasing the amount of contrast between the foreground portion and the background portion of the user interface as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user regarding the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which provides improved visual feedback.

[0324] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a first amount of saturation. In some embodiments, the second user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a second amount of saturation that is less than the first amount of saturation (e.g., displaying the first animation includes reducing the saturation of the first user interface). In some embodiments, the foreground portion of the first user interface and the background portion of the first user interface are both desaturated. In some embodiments, either the foreground portion of the first user interface or the background portion of the first user interface is desaturated. In some embodiments, the foreground portion of the first user interface is desaturated with an amount different from the background portion of the first user interface. The amount of saturation in the reduced user interface as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user about the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which improves visual feedback.

[0325] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) (e.g., where the first user interface corresponds to a first type of user interface) includes a time and / or date user interface element (e.g., 616 and / or 618) (e.g., a user interface element indicating the current date and / or current time) having a first color (e.g., black, white, or any other color that allows viewing of a time and / or date user interface in the background for the first user interface). In some embodiments, the second user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a time and / or date user interface element having a second color (e.g., different from the first color). In some embodiments, the second color has a smaller amount of contrast with the second backstage portion than the first color (e.g., the color of the time and / or date user interface element is changed so that the contrast between the time and / or date user interface element and the backstage portion of the second user interface remains suitable for viewing (e.g., the brightness of the time and / or date user interface element corresponds to the modification of the brightness of the backstage portion of the first user interface). In some embodiments, the second color is a different hue from the first color. In some embodiments, the backstage portion and the time and / or date user interface element are displayed as the same color (e.g., different hues of the same color). Changing the color of the time and / or date user interface so that the time and / or date user interface element has a greater amount of contrast with the second backstage portion as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user about the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which improves the visual feedback.

[0326] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) has a first overall brightness and (e.g., where the first user interface corresponds to a first type of user interface) includes one or more status information user interface elements (e.g., 608a-608c) (e.g., an indication of time and / or an indication of date) (e.g., information related to the state of the computer system and / or information related to date and / or time) having a first brightness. In some embodiments, the second user interface (e.g., 912, 920, and / or 930) has a second overall brightness and includes one or more status information user interface elements having a second brightness (e.g., different from the first brightness). In some embodiments, the difference between the first total brightness and the second total brightness is greater than the difference between the first brightness and the second brightness (e.g., displaying the first animation includes reducing the brightness of one or more status information user interface elements (e.g., slightly reducing the brightness (e.g., the brightness is reduced by less than 20%)) and reducing the total brightness of the first user interface, where the total brightness of the first user interface is reduced by more than the brightness of the one or more status information user interface elements (e.g., the brightness of one or more status information user interface elements is reduced by a fraction of the first factor (e.g., 0.2, 0.4, 0.6), and the total brightness of the first user interface is reduced by a multiple of the first factor (e.g., 2x, 3x, or 4x (e.g., an integer multiple of the first factor))). In some embodiments, displaying the first animation includes reducing the brightness of one or more status information user interface elements by a multiple of the first factor and reducing the total brightness of the first user interface by a fraction of the first factor. Reducing the brightness of one or more status information user elements to less than the total brightness of the displayed user interface as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user about the current operating mode of the computer system (e.g., whether the computer system is in the first mode or the second mode), which improves visual feedback.

[0327] In some embodiments, based on determining that the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a third foreground portion (e.g., content included in the first user interface that obscures content included in the background of the first user interface when the computer system is in the first mode (e.g., portraits, astronomical objects, and / or expressions)) (e.g., content included in the first user interface that is obscured by content in the second foreground) and a third background portion, the third foreground portion is positioned relative to the third background portion in the first animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9A to 9E The visual relationship (e.g., comparison of size, contrast, comparison of display position, spatial orientation, and / or comparison of color) between the third foreground portion and the third background portion in the first animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 9B2In some embodiments, based on determining that the first user interface does not include a second foreground and a second background, displaying the first animation includes uniformly modifying the first user interface. Changing the visual relationship of the third foreground portion and the third background portion as part of the first animation when a specified condition is met (for example, based on determining that the first user interface corresponds to a first type of user interface) allows the computer system to automatically apply different visual processing to the foreground portion and the background portion so that visibility of the content in the foreground portion remains visible to the user, which performs the operation when a set of conditions are met.

[0328] In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 602, 912, 920, and / or 930) includes a time user interface object (e.g., a user interface object indicating the current time). In some embodiments, before displaying the first animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9A to 9E In some embodiments, after the first animation is displayed, (e.g., the first portion of the second foreground moves in one direction (e.g., up, down, left and / or right) (e.g., the size of the first portion of the second foreground is reduced) (e.g., relative to the temporal user interface object)), the first portion of the third foreground portion does not overlap with the temporal user interface object (e.g., as discussed with respect to Figures 9A to 9B1 In some embodiments, the first portion of the second foreground and the second background are both shifted relative to each other. In some embodiments, display of the user interface object is shifted (e.g., and the first portion of the second foreground is not shifted) to remove overlap with the first portion of the second foreground. In some embodiments, displaying the first animation includes shifting the temporal user interface object relative to the first portion of the second foreground. Shifting the temporal user interface element so that the temporal user interface element no longer overlaps with the first portion of the third foreground portion as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a condition is met (e.g., based on a determination that the first user interface corresponds to a first type of user interface) allows the computer system to automatically remove visual obstruction to the temporal user interface element, which is performed when a set of conditions are met.

[0329] In some embodiments, as part of modifying the second foreground relative to the second background, the computer system reduces the brightness of the second foreground (e.g., the brightness of the second foreground may be reduced uniformly or non-uniformly) by a first amount and reduces the brightness of the second background (e.g., the brightness of the second background may be reduced uniformly or non-uniformly) by a second amount. In some embodiments, the second amount is greater than the first amount. In some embodiments, the first amount by which the brightness of the second foreground is reduced is a function of the second amount by which the brightness of the second background is reduced. Reducing the brightness of the second background by more than the brightness of the second foreground as part of transitioning the computer system from a first mode to a second mode when a condition is met (e.g., based on determining that the first user interface corresponds to a first type of user interface) allows the computer system to automatically variably adjust the brightness setting of the computer system's display, which performs an action when the condition is met.

[0330] In some embodiments, after detecting the occurrence of a condition (e.g., as described above with respect to 950a, 950g, 950p, and / or 950t) and while the computer system (e.g., 600) is in the first mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 9A 、 Figure 9E 、 Figure 9G 、 Figure 9O 、 Figure 9R 、 Figure 9S and / or Figure 9V , 950a, 950g, 950p, and / or 950t) in the first mode. In some embodiments, while displaying the third user interface, the computer system detects a second occurrence of a condition (e.g., as described with respect to 950a, 950g, 950p, and / or 950t) (e.g., the occurrence of the condition indicates reduced user activity or reduced user interaction with the computer system (e.g., the passage of a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 0.25 seconds, 0.5 seconds, 1 second, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, 25 seconds, or 45 seconds) during which the computer system does not detect user interaction)) (e.g., detecting an input (e.g., a tap gesture, a swipe input, an input on a hardware button coupled to the computer system, and / or a hand override)). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a second occurrence of the condition and based on determining that the third user interface corresponds to an application (e.g., an application installed on the computer system) (e.g., a map application, a phone call application, a voice memo application, and / or a television remote application) that has a low power state (e.g., a version of the application that is presented to the user when the computer system is in a lower power consumption mode), the computer system transitions from the first mode to the second mode (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9H to 9L2 、 Figure 9Q and / or Figure 9UAs part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode, the computer system displays a third animation (e.g., different from the first animation and the second animation) via the display generation component (e.g., 610), the third animation causing a fourth user interface (e.g., a fourth user interface corresponding to the application when the computer system is in the second low-power mode) to be displayed in the second mode.

[0331] In some embodiments, in response to detecting a second occurrence of the condition and based on determining that the third user interface corresponds to an application that does not have a low-power state, the computer system transitions from the first mode to the second mode. As part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode, the computer system displays a second animation (e.g., as described above with respect to the display generation component) via the display generation component. Figures 9H to 9K 、 Figure 9Q and / or Figure 9U As discussed). In some embodiments, the computer system is performing an operation corresponding to the application (e.g., performing a phone call operation, providing directions to a user, recording a voice memo) when the second occurrence of the condition is detected, and the computer system continues to perform the operation corresponding to the application after detecting the second occurrence of the condition. Displaying the second animation or the third animation as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode provides visual feedback to the user about the state of the computer system (e.g., that the computer system has detected the second occurrence of the condition), which provides improved visual feedback. Displaying the third animation in response to detecting the second occurrence of the condition when the specified condition is met (based on determining that the third user interface corresponds to an application with a low power state) allows the computer system to automatically control the type of animation displayed, which automatically performs operations when a set of conditions are met.

[0332] In some embodiments, the third user interface includes a third set of one or more system elements (e.g., 914) (e.g., selectable system elements) (e.g., status information (e.g., status information about the computer system and / or status information about the function being performed by the computer system (e.g., providing directions and / or phone calls to the user))). In some embodiments, in the third animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9P to 9QIn some embodiments, after the third animation, the third group of one or more system elements are not visually obscured (e.g., dimmed and / or blurred) before the third animation is displayed. In some embodiments, after the third animation, the third group of one or more system elements are visually obscured (e.g., displaying the third animation includes visually obscured (e.g., dimming and / or blurring) the visual appearance of the third group of one or more system elements (e.g., the third group of one or more system elements cannot be selected when the third group of one or more system elements are visually obscured)). In some embodiments, because the third group of one or more system elements are visually obscured, the computer system stops displaying the third group of one or more system elements. In some embodiments, when the first group of user interface objects are visually obscured, the third group of one or more system elements are selectable. Blurring out one or more system elements as part of displaying the third animation when a specified condition is met (e.g., based on determining that the third user interface corresponds to an application with a low power mode) allows the computer system to automatically manage which system elements are visible to the user and which system elements are not visible to the user, which automatically performs operations when a set of conditions are met.

[0333] In some embodiments, when the third group of one or more system elements is visually obscured, the third group of one or more system elements (e.g., 914) is unselectable. In some embodiments, when the third group of one or more system elements is visually obscured, the computer system transitions from the second mode to the first mode in response to detecting an input at a displayed location of the third group of one or more system elements when the third group of one or more system elements is visually obscured. Displaying unselectable system elements as visually obscured when the computer system is in the second mode provides visual feedback to the user as to whether the corresponding system elements are selectable, which provides improved visual feedback.

[0334] In some embodiments, the third user interface (e.g., 920) includes a fourth set of one or more system elements (e.g., 614) and a fifth set of one or more system elements (e.g., 940) (e.g., selectable user interface objects) (e.g., status information (e.g., status information about the computer system and / or status information about the function being performed by the computer system (e.g., providing directions and / or phone calls to the user))). In some embodiments, in the third animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9P to 9QIn some embodiments, prior to displaying the third animation, the fourth group of one or more system elements and the fifth group of one or more system elements have a first amount of brightness (e.g., the first group of one or more system elements, the fourth group of one or more system elements, and the fifth group of one or more system elements are displayed at the same brightness). In some embodiments, after the third animation, the fourth group of one or more system elements have a second amount of brightness that is less than the first amount of brightness, and the fifth group of one or more system elements have the first amount of brightness (e.g., displaying the third animation includes reducing the brightness of the fourth group of one or more system elements and maintaining the brightness of the fifth group of one or more system elements). In some embodiments, when the fourth group of one or more system elements are displayed at the third amount of brightness, the fourth group of one or more system elements are unselectable, and when the fifth group of one or more system elements are displayed at the second amount of brightness, the fifth group of one or more system elements are selectable. Reducing the brightness of the fourth group of one or more system elements while maintaining the brightness of the fifth group of one or more system elements as part of displaying the third animation when a set of conditions is met (e.g., based on determining that the third user interface corresponds to an application with a low power mode) allows the computer system to automatically and variably manage the brightness of the computer system's display to optionally conserve battery power, which is performed when the set of conditions are met.

[0335] In some embodiments, in the third animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9P to 9Q As previously described), the third user interface (e.g., 920 and / or 930) includes a first set of information (e.g., dynamic information (e.g., directions and / or location of the computer system)) (e.g., information updated at a high frequency (e.g., information updated every 2 seconds, every 5 seconds, or every 1 second (e.g., turn-by-turn directions))) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9P to 9Q In some embodiments, based on determining that the first set of information does not meet the first confidence level threshold (e.g., the first set of information is no longer accurate), the fourth user interface does not include the first set of information (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9P to 9Q In some embodiments, the fourth user interface includes the first set of information based on a determination that the first set of information does meet a confidence level threshold. In some embodiments, the first set of information is a subset of the information (e.g., the fourth user interface will not include a millisecond portion of a running timer, but will include a portion of a running timer that tracks time based on minutes or seconds). Stopping display of the first set of information as part of transitioning the computer system from the first mode to the second mode when a specified condition is met (e.g., based on a determination that the first set of information does not meet a first confidence level threshold) allows the computer system to automatically manage the display of unreliable information while the computer system is in the second mode, which automatically performs operations when a set of conditions are met.

[0336] In some embodiments, as a means of displaying a third user interface (e.g., Figure 9P In some embodiments, based on determining that the second set of information meets the second confidence level threshold, the fourth user interface (e.g., Figure 9Q In some embodiments, the fourth user interface includes a second set of information having a first amount of brightness (e.g., displaying the third animation includes maintaining the brightness of the information that satisfies a second confidence level threshold). In some embodiments, based on determining that the second set of information does not satisfy the confidence level threshold, the fourth animation includes displaying the second set of information at a second amount of brightness that is less than the first amount of brightness. In some embodiments, the fourth user interface includes the second set of information having a different visual appearance than when the second set of information was included in the third user interface (e.g., the size of the second set of information, the location of the display of the second set of information is different). Maintaining the brightness level of the second set of information as part of displaying the second animation when a condition is met (e.g., based on determining that the second set of information satisfies the second confidence level threshold) allows the computer system to automatically manage the brightness of the display of reliable information of interest to the user when the computer system is in the second mode, which automatically performs operations when a set of conditions are met.

[0337] In some embodiments, before displaying the third animation (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 9P to 9QBefore the third animation, the computer system (e.g., 600) is in normal display mode (e.g., operating in normal display mode) (e.g., the brightness of the display generating component is not modified (e.g., not dimmed) (e.g., black text is shown on a white background) (e.g., non-dark mode)). In some embodiments, based on determining that the application (e.g., the application corresponding to the third user interface) has a dark mode (e.g., a mode in which the computer system displays user interface elements with a reduced overall luminance (e.g., compared to the normal display mode), optionally by reducing the brightness of the background of the corresponding user interface and / or optionally reversing the light / dark contrast relationship between the content (e.g., text) and the background of the corresponding user interface) (e.g., a mode in which the brightness of the computer system's display is reduced) (e.g., a mode in which the appearance of the text is inverted (e.g., white text is shown on a black background)) (e.g., a mode that reduces battery consumption of the computer system) after the third animation, the computer system is in dark display mode (e.g., operating in dark display mode). In some embodiments, the computer system exits the dark display mode (and re-enters the normal display mode) in response to detecting a user input (e.g., a tap, a lift of the computer system, or a selection of a hardware button coupled to the computer system). In some embodiments, based on a determination that the application does not have a dark mode, the computer system remains in the normal display mode after the third animation. Transitioning the computer system from the normal display mode to the dark mode as part of transitioning ...
