[0051] There is a need for electronic devices that provide efficient methods and interfaces for managing camera characteristics. In some cases, users need to capture enhanced media by managing camera characteristics. Such techniques can reduce the cognitive burden on users to manage camera characteristics to capture media, thereby increasing productivity. In addition, such techniques can reduce processor power and battery power that would otherwise be wasted on redundant user input.
[0052] under Figure 1A to Figure 1B , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , FIG. 4A to FIG. 4B and FIG. 5A to FIG. 5B A description of an example device for performing techniques for managing camera characteristics is provided.

Fig.12 An exemplary user interface for managing media stabilization according to some embodiments is illustrated. FIG. 11A to FIG. 11M The user interface is used to illustrate the process described below, including Fig.12 process.
[0053] 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 by 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 displayed 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.
[0054] In addition, in the method described herein where one or more steps depend on one or more conditions being met, it should be understood that the method can be repeated in multiple repetitions so that in the process of repetition, all conditions for determining the steps in 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 the ordinary technician 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 one or more conditions being met can be rewritten as a method of repeating until each condition described in the method is met. However, this does not require the system or computer-readable medium to declare that the system or computer-readable medium contains instructions for performing a contingent operation based on the satisfaction of the corresponding one or more conditions, and is therefore able to determine whether the possible situation has been met without explicitly repeating the steps of the method until all conditions for determining the steps in the method have been met. It will also be understood by ordinary technicians in the art that, similar to the method with the contingent step, the system or computer-readable storage medium can repeat the steps of the method as many times as needed to ensure that all the contingent steps have been performed.
[0055] 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 element. 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.
[0056] The terms used in the description of various described embodiments herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to be limited. As used in the description of various described embodiments and in the appended claims, the singular forms "one" and "the" are intended to also include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the term "and / or" used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more items in the associated listed items. It will also be understood that the terms "including" and / or "comprising" when used in this specification specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and / or their grouping.
[0057] The term "if" is optionally interpreted to mean "when," "upon," or "in response to determining," or "in response to detecting," depending on the context. Similarly, the phrases "if it is determined that ..." or "if [a stated condition or event] is detected" are optionally interpreted to mean "upon determining that ..." or "in response to determining that ..." or "upon detecting [a stated condition or event]," or "in response to detecting [a stated condition or event]," depending on the context.
[0058] Embodiments of electronic devices, user interfaces for such devices, and associated processes for using such devices are described herein. In some embodiments, the device is a portable communication device, such as a mobile phone, that also includes other functions, such as a PDA and / or a music player function. Exemplary embodiments of portable multifunction devices include, but are not limited to, the Apple Watch from Apple Inc. (Cupertino, California). Devices, iPod Equipment and Device. Optionally use other portable electronic devices, such as laptops or tablet computers with touch-sensitive surfaces (e.g., touch screen displays and / or touch pads). 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 touch pads). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system that communicates with the display generation component (e.g., via wireless communication or via wired communication). The display generation component is configured to provide visual output, such as display via a CRT display, display via an LED display, or display via image projection. In some embodiments, the display generation component is integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the display generation component is separated from the computer system. As used herein, "display" content includes transmitting data (e.g., image data or video data) to an integrated or external display generation component via a wired or wireless connection to visually generate content to display content (e.g., video data rendered or decoded by display controller 156).
[0059] 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.
[0060] The device typically supports a variety of applications, such as one or more of the following: a drawing application, a presentation 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.
[0061] 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 a touch-sensitive surface) optionally supports various applications with a user interface that is intuitive and clear to the user.
[0062] Attention is now turned to embodiments of portable devices having touch-sensitive displays. Figure 1A1 is a block diagram illustrating a portable multifunction device 100 with a touch-sensitive display system 112 according to some embodiments. The 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." The device 100 includes a 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, an RF circuit 108, an audio circuit 110, a speaker 111, a microphone 113, an input / output (I / O) subsystem 106, other input control devices 116, and an external port 124. The device 100 optionally includes one or more optical sensors 164. The device 100 optionally includes one or more contact force sensors 165 for detecting the intensity of contact on the device 100 (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, such as the touch-sensitive display system 112 of the 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.
[0063] 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) of 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, force measurements from multiple force sensors are combined (e.g., weighted average) 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 substitute for the force or pressure of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, the substitute measurement of the contact force or pressure is used directly to determine whether the intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is described in units corresponding to the substitute measurement). In some embodiments, the substitute 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 the 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 functions that would otherwise be inaccessible to the user on a smaller device with limited real estate, which is used to display an enable 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).
[0064] 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 the 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, which will be detected by a user using the user's sense of touch. For example, in the case where a device or a component of the device is in contact with a user's touch-sensitive surface (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 corresponding to a perceived change in the physical properties 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" to 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 is physically pressed (e.g., displaced) by the user's movement does not move. As another example, even when there is no change in the smoothness of the touch-sensitive surface, movement of the touch-sensitive surface may optionally be interpreted or sensed by the user as "roughness" of the touch-sensitive surface. Although 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. Therefore, 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.
[0065] It should be understood that device 100 is merely one example of a portable multifunction device, and that device 100 optionally has more or fewer components than shown, optionally combines two or more components, or optionally has a different configuration or arrangement of the components. Figure 1A The various components shown are implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of both hardware and software, including one or more signal processing and / or application specific integrated circuits.
[0066] Memory 102 optionally includes high-speed random access memory, and optionally also includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more disk storage devices, flash memory devices or other non-volatile solid-state memory devices. Memory controller 122 optionally controls other components of device 100 to access memory 102.
[0067] 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.
[0068] RF (radio frequency) circuit 108 receives and sends RF signals, also referred to as electromagnetic signals. RF circuit 108 converts electrical signals into / converts electromagnetic signals into electrical signals, and communicates with communication networks and other communication devices via electromagnetic signals.

[0069] The audio circuit 110, speaker 111, and microphone 113 provide an audio interface between a 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 having both output (e.g., a single or dual-ear headset) and input (e.g., a microphone).
[0070] The I / O subsystem 106 couples input / output peripherals on the device 100, such as a touch screen 112 and other input control devices 116, to a peripheral device 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. The one or more input controllers 160 receive / send electrical signals from other input control devices 116. The other input control devices 116 optionally include physical buttons (e.g., push buttons, rocker buttons, etc.), dials, slide switches, joysticks, click wheels, etc. In some embodiments, the input controller 160 is optionally coupled to any of the following (or none of the following): a keyboard, an infrared port, a USB port, and a pointing device such as a mouse. One or more buttons (e.g., Figure 2 208) optionally includes an increase / decrease button for volume control of the speaker 111 and / or the microphone 113. The one or more buttons optionally include a push button (e.g., Figure 2206 in). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system that communicates with one or more input devices (e.g., via wireless communication, via wired communication). In some embodiments, the one or more input devices include a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchpad as part of a touch-sensitive display). 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 is 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 a hand moving a predetermined amount and / or speed in a predetermined position, or a shake gesture involving a predetermined speed or amount of rotation of a part of the user's body).
[0071] A quick press of the push button optionally disengages the lock of the touch screen 112 or optionally begins the process of unlocking the device using gestures on the touch screen, as described in U.S. Patent Application 11 / 322,549, filed on December 23, 2005, entitled "Unlocking a Device by Performing Gestures on an Unlock Image" (i.e., U.S. Patent No. 7,657,849), which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. A long press of the push button (e.g., 206) optionally turns the device 100 on or off. The functions of one or more buttons are optionally user-customizable. The touch screen 112 is used to implement virtual buttons or soft buttons and one or more soft keyboards.
[0072] The touch-sensitive display 112 provides an input interface and an output interface between the device and the user. The display controller 156 receives electrical signals from the touch screen 112 and / or sends electrical signals to the touch screen. The touch screen 112 displays visual output to the user. The visual output optionally includes graphics, text, icons, videos, and any combination thereof (collectively referred to as "graphics"). In some embodiments, some or all of the visual output optionally corresponds to user interface objects.
[0073] The touch screen 112 has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor, or sensor group that accepts input from a user based on tactile and / or haptic contact. The touch screen 112 and display controller 156 (together with any associated modules and / or instruction sets in memory 102) detect contact (and any movement or interruption of the contact) on the touch screen 112 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.
[0074] 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. In an exemplary embodiment, projected mutual capacitance sensing technology is used, such as in the Apple ® from Apple Inc. (Cupertino, California). and iPod The technology used in.
[0075] The touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of touch screen 112 is optionally similar to the multi-touch-sensitive touchpad described in the following U.S. Patents: 6,323,846 (Westerman et al.), 6,570,557 (Westerman et al.), and / or 6,677,932 (Westerman et al.), and / or U.S. Patent Publication 2002 / 0015024A1, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. However, touch screen 112 displays visual output from device 100, while a touch-sensitive touchpad does not provide visual output.
[0076] 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. No. 11 / 228,758, filed on September 16, 2005, “Virtual Input Device Placement On A Touch Screen User Interface”; (7) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 228,700, filed on September 16, 2005, “Operation Of A Computer With A Touch Screen Interface”; (8) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 228,737, filed on September 16, 2005, “Activating Virtual Keys Of A Touch-Screen Virtual Keyboard”; and (9) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 367,749, filed on March 3, 2006, “Multi-Functional Hand-Held Device”. All of these applications are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
[0077] The touch screen 112 optionally has a video resolution of more than 100 dpi. In some embodiments, the touch screen has a video resolution of about 160 dpi. The user optionally uses any suitable object or attachment such as a stylus, a finger, etc. to contact the touch screen 112. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work primarily through finger-based contacts and gestures, which may not be as accurate as stylus-based input due to the larger contact area of the finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device converts rough finger-based input into precise pointer / cursor positioning or commands for performing the actions desired by the user.
[0078] In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, the device 100 optionally includes a touchpad for activating or deactivating specific functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of the device that, unlike the touch screen, does not display visual output. The touchpad is optionally a touch-sensitive surface separate from the touch screen 112, or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touch screen.
[0079] Device 100 also includes a power system 162 for powering the various components. Power system 162 optionally includes a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., batteries, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, power fault detection circuits, power converters or inverters, power status indicators (e.g., light emitting diodes (LEDs)), and any other components associated with the generation, management, and distribution of power in a portable device.
[0080] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more optical sensors 164 . Figure 1AAn optical sensor coupled to an optical sensor controller 158 in the I / O subsystem 106 is shown. The optical sensor 164 optionally includes a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. The optical sensor 164 receives light projected through one or more lenses from the environment and converts the light into data representing an image. In conjunction with the imaging module 143 (also called a camera module), the optical sensor 164 optionally captures a static image or video. In some embodiments, the optical sensor is located on the rear of the device 100, opposite to the touch screen display 112 on the front of the device, so that the touch screen display can be used as a viewfinder for static images and / or video image acquisition. In some embodiments, the optical sensor is located on the front of the device so that when the user views other video conference participants on the touch screen display, the image of the user is optionally obtained for video conferencing. 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) so that a single optical sensor 164 is used with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and static image and / or video image acquisition.
[0081] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more depth camera sensors 175 . Figure 1A A depth camera sensor coupled to a depth camera controller 169 in the I / O subsystem 106 is shown. The depth camera sensor 175 receives data from the environment to create a three-dimensional model of an object (e.g., a face) within the scene from a viewpoint (e.g., a 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 a depth map of different portions of an image captured by the imaging module 143. In some embodiments, the depth camera sensor is located at the front of the device 100, so that an image of the user with depth information is optionally obtained for video conferencing while the user is viewing other video conference participants on the touch screen display, and a selfie with depth map data is captured. In some embodiments, the depth camera sensor 175 is located at the rear of the device, or at 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) so that the depth camera sensor 175 is used with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still image and / or video image acquisition.
[0082] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 . Figure 1AA contact force sensor is shown coupled to a force sensor controller 159 in the 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 contact on a touch-sensitive surface). Contact force sensor 165 receives contact force information (e.g., pressure information or a surrogate for pressure information) from the environment. In some embodiments, at least one contact force sensor is juxtaposed or adjacent to a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112). In some embodiments, at least one contact force sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite to touch screen display 112 located on the front of device 100.
[0083] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more proximity sensors 166 . Figure 1A A proximity sensor 166 is shown coupled to the peripherals interface 118. Alternatively, the proximity sensor 166 is optionally coupled to the input controller 160 in the I / O subsystem 106. The proximity sensor 166 is optionally implemented as described in the following U.S. patent application numbers: 11 / 241,839, entitled "Proximity Detector In Handheld Device"; 11 / 240,788, entitled "Proximity Detector In Handheld Device"; 11 / 620,702, entitled "Using Ambient Light Sensor ToAugment Proximity Sensor Output"; 11 / 586,862, entitled "Automated R esponse T o A n d S ens i ng Of U ser A c ti v it y I n P or t a ble D ev i ces ” ; 以及 No. 11 / 638,251, entitled “Methods And Systems For Automatic Configuration Of Peripherals,” which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. In some embodiments, when the multifunction device is placed near the user's ear (e.g., when the user is making a phone call), the proximity sensor turns off and the touch screen 112 is disabled.
[0084] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more tactile output generators 167 . Figure 1A A tactile output generator is shown coupled to a tactile feedback controller 161 in the I / O subsystem 106. The tactile output generator 167 optionally includes one or more electroacoustic devices such as a speaker or other audio component; and / or an electromechanical device for converting energy into linear motion such as a motor, solenoid, electroactive polymer, piezoelectric actuator, electrostatic actuator, or other tactile output generating component (e.g., a component for converting an electrical signal into a tactile output on the device). The contact force sensor 165 receives tactile feedback generation instructions from the tactile feedback module 133 and generates a tactile output 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 arranged in parallel or adjacent to a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display system 112) and optionally generates a tactile output by moving the touch-sensitive surface vertically (e.g., inward / outward of the surface of the device 100) or laterally (e.g., backward and forward 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.
[0085] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more accelerometers 168 . Figure 1AAn accelerometer 168 is shown coupled to the peripheral device interface 118. Alternatively, the accelerometer 168 is optionally coupled to the input controller 160 in the I / O subsystem 106. The accelerometer 168 is optionally implemented as described in the following U.S. Patent Publication Nos.: 20050190059, entitled "Acceleration-based Theft Detection System for Portable Electronic Devices" and 20060017692, entitled "Methods And Apparatuses For Operating A Portable Device Based On An Accelerometer", both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. In some embodiments, information is displayed in a portrait view or a landscape view on the touch screen display based on analysis of data received from one or more accelerometers. The device 100 optionally includes a magnetometer and a GPS (or GLONASS or other global navigation system) receiver in addition to the accelerometer 168 for obtaining information about the position and orientation (e.g., portrait or landscape) of the device 100.
[0086] In some embodiments, the software components stored in memory 102 include an operating system 126, a communication module (or instruction set) 128, a contact / motion module (or instruction set) 130, a graphics module (or instruction set) 132, a text input module (or instruction set) 134, a global positioning system (GPS) module (or instruction set) 135, and an application (or instruction set) 136. In addition, in some embodiments, memory 102 ( Figure 1A ) or 370( Figure 3 ) storage device / global internal state 157, such as Figure 1A and Figure 3 . The device / global internal state 157 includes one or more of the following: active application state, which indicates which application (if any) is currently active; display state, which indicates what applications, views, or other information occupy various areas of the touch screen display 112; sensor state, including information obtained from the device's various sensors and input control devices 116; and position information related to the device's position and / or posture.
[0087] The operating system 126 (e.g., Darwin, RTXC, LINUX, UNIX, OS X, iOS, WINDOWS, or an embedded operating system such as VxWorks) includes various software components and / or drivers for controlling and managing general system tasks (e.g., memory management, storage device control, power management, etc.), and facilitating communication between various hardware components and software components.
[0088] The communication module 128 facilitates communication with other devices through one or more external ports 124, and also includes various software components for processing data received by the RF circuit 108 and / or the external port 124. The external port 124 (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB), FireWire, etc.) is suitable for coupling directly to other devices, or indirectly through a network (e.g., the Internet, wireless LAN, etc.). In some embodiments, the external port is connected to (trademark of Apple Inc.) devices.
[0089] 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 press event), determining the contact strength (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact, or a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact), determining whether there is 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 stopped (e.g., detecting a finger lift event or contact disconnection). 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 simultaneous contact (e.g., "multi-touch" / multiple finger contacts). In some embodiments, the contact / motion module 130 and display controller 156 detect contact on the touch pad.
[0090] 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 thresholds of specific physical actuators and can be adjusted without changing the physical hardware of the device 100). For example, without changing the touchpad or touchscreen display hardware, the mouse "click" threshold of a touchpad or touchscreen can be set to any one of a large range of predefined thresholds. Additionally, in some specific implementations, 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).
[0091] The 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). Therefore, 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.
[0092] 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.
[0093] In some embodiments, the graphics module 132 stores data representing graphics to be used. Each graphic is optionally assigned a corresponding code. The graphics module 132 receives one or more codes for specifying the graphics to be displayed from an application or the like, along with coordinate data and other graphic attribute data if necessary, and then generates screen image data to be output to the display controller 156.
[0094] Haptic feedback module 133 includes various software components for generating instructions used by tactile output generator 167 to produce tactile output at one or more locations on device 100 in response to user interaction with device 100 .

In some embodiments, device 100 optionally includes the functionality of an MP3 player, such as an iPod (trademark of Apple Inc.).
[0132] 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.
[0133] In combination with the RF circuit 108, the touch screen 112, the display controller 156, the touch / motion module 130, the graphics module 132, the text input module 134, the GPS module 135 and the 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 a link to a specific online video. Additional descriptions of online video applications may 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.
[0135] 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, so 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.
[0136] In some embodiments, the device 100 is a device where the operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively through a touch screen and / or a touch pad. By using a touch screen and / or a touch pad as the primary input control device for operating the device 100, the number of physical input control devices (e.g., push buttons, dials, etc.) on the device 100 is optionally reduced.
[0137] A predefined set of functions that are performed exclusively 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 to a main menu, a home menu, or a root menu from any user interface displayed on the device 100. In such embodiments, a "menu button" is implemented using the touchpad. In some other embodiments, the menu button is a physical push button or other physical input control device, rather than a touchpad.
[0138] 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).
[0139] 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 event monitor 171 and event distributor module 174. In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes application internal state 192, which 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.
[0140] 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 a 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.
[0141] Event monitor 171 receives event information from peripherals interface 118. Event information includes information about sub-events (e.g., user touches 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 (through 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.
[0142] 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).
[0143] In some embodiments, the event classifier 170 also includes a hit view determination module 172 and / or an active event identifier determination module 173.
[0144] 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.
[0145] 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 a programmatic level within the programmatic or view hierarchy of the application. 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 identified as correct input is optionally determined at least in part based on the hit view of the initial touch that started the touch-based gesture.
[0146] 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 is identified as the hit view.
[0147] 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, higher views in the hierarchy will still remain as actively participating views.
[0148] Event distributor module 174 distributes event information to event recognizers (e.g., event recognizers 180). In embodiments including active event recognizer determination module 173, event distributor module 174 delivers the event information to the event recognizers determined by active event recognizer determination module 173. In some embodiments, event distributor module 174 stores the event information in an event queue, which is retrieved by corresponding event receivers 182.
[0149] 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 is part of another module stored in memory 102, such as contact / motion module 130.
[0150] 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 occurring within a corresponding view of the user interface of the application. Each application view 191 of application 136-1 includes one or more event identifiers 180. Typically, the corresponding application view 191 includes multiple event identifiers 180. In other embodiments, one or more event identifiers in event identifiers 180 are part of an independent module, which is a higher-level object such as a user interface toolkit or application 136-1 from which methods and other properties are inherited. In some embodiments, the corresponding event handler 190 includes one or more of the following: data updater 176, object updater 177, GUI updater 178 and / or event data 179 received from event classifier 170. Event handler 190 optionally utilizes or calls data updater 176, object updater 177 or GUI updater 178 to update application internal state 192. Alternatively, one or more of the application views 191 include one or more corresponding event handlers 190. In addition, in some embodiments, one or more of the data updater 176, the object updater 177, and the GUI updater 178 are included in the corresponding application view 191.
[0151] The corresponding event identifier 180 receives event information (e.g., event data 179) from the event classifier 170 and identifies the event based on the event information. The event identifier 180 includes an event receiver 182 and an event comparator 184. In some embodiments, the event identifier 180 also includes metadata 183 and at least a subset of event delivery instructions 188 (which optionally includes sub-event delivery instructions).
[0152] Event receiver 182 receives event information from event classifier 170. Event information includes information about sub-events such as touch or touch movement. 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 the touch, the event information optionally also includes the speed and direction of the sub-event. In some embodiments, the event includes the device rotating from one orientation to another orientation (for example, from a longitudinal orientation to a transverse 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).
[0153] 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 sub-event sequence), such as event 1 (187-1), event 2 (187-2), and others. In some embodiments, sub-events in events (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.
[0154] In some embodiments, event definition 186 includes a definition of an event for a corresponding user interface object. 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 associated with a sub-event and the object that triggered the hit test.
[0155] 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.
[0156] When a corresponding event recognizer 180 determines that a sequence of sub-events does not match any event in event definition 186, the corresponding event recognizer 180 enters an 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.
[0157] In some embodiments, the 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 to 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.
[0158] In some embodiments, when one or more specific sub-events of an event are identified, the corresponding event recognizer 180 activates an 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 tag associated with the identified event, and the event handler 190 associated with the tag obtains the tag and executes a predefined process.
[0159] In some embodiments, the event delivery instructions 188 include a sub-event delivery instruction that delivers event information about a sub-event without activating an event handler. Instead, the sub-event delivery instruction delivers the event information to an event handler associated with a sub-event sequence or to an actively participating view. The event handler associated with the sub-event sequence or with an actively participating view receives the event information and executes a predetermined process.
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] It should be understood that the above discussion of event processing for user touches on a touch-sensitive display also applies to other forms of user input that utilize 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 hold; contact movement on a touch pad, such as tapping, dragging, scrolling, etc.; stylus input; movement of the device; verbal commands; detected eye movement; biometric input; and / or any combination thereof are optionally used as input corresponding to sub-events that define the event to be distinguished.
[0163] Figure 2A portable multifunction device 100 with a touch screen 112 according to some embodiments is illustrated. The touch screen optionally displays one or more graphics within a user interface (UI) 200. In this embodiment and other embodiments described below, a user can select one or more of these graphics by, for example, making gestures on the graphics using one or more fingers 202 (not drawn to scale in the figure) or one or more styluses 203 (not drawn to scale in the figure). In some embodiments, when the user interrupts contact with one or more graphics, selection of one or more graphics will occur. In some embodiments, gestures optionally include one or more taps, one or more swipes (from left to right, from right to left, up and / or down) and / or rolling of fingers that have been in contact with the device 100 (from right to left, from left to right, up and / or down). In some specific implementations or in some cases, inadvertent contact with a graphic will not select the graphic. For example, when the gesture corresponding to the selection is a tap, a swipe gesture that sweeps over an application icon optionally does not select the corresponding application.
[0164] 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 that are optionally 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.
[0165] 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 user identity module (SIM) card slot 210, an earphone 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 keeping the button in a pressed state for a predefined time interval; lock the device by pressing the button and releasing the button before the predefined time interval passes; and / or 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 through a microphone 113. The device 100 also optionally includes one or more contact strength sensors 165 for detecting the strength of contact on the touch screen 112, and / or one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile output for a user of the device 100.
[0166] Figure 3300 is a block diagram of an exemplary multifunction device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface according to some embodiments. Device 300 does not have to be portable. In some embodiments, 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 game system, or a control device (e.g., a home controller or an industrial controller). 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. Device 300 includes an input / output (I / O) interface 330 with a display 340, which is typically a touch screen display. The I / O interface 330 also optionally includes a keyboard and / or a 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 reference Figure 1A The tactile output generator 167 described above), the sensor 359 (e.g., an optical sensor, an acceleration sensor, a proximity sensor, a touch sensitive sensor, and / or a contact intensity sensor (similar to the above reference Figure 1A Memory 370 optionally includes one or more storage devices located away 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.
[0167] Figure 3Each element in the above-mentioned elements in is optionally stored in one or more memory devices of the previously mentioned memory device. Each module in the above-mentioned modules corresponds to the instruction set for performing the function described above. The above-mentioned modules or computer programs (for example, instruction sets or including instructions) do not have to 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 the above-mentioned modules and data structures. In addition, memory 370 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.
[0168] Attention is now turned to an embodiment of a user interface that is optionally implemented on, for example, portable multifunction device 100.
[0169] Figure 4A An exemplary user interface of an application menu on portable multifunction device 100 according to some embodiments is illustrated. 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:
[0170] Signal strength indicators 402 for wireless communications such as cellular signals and Wi-Fi signals;
[0171] Time 404;
[0172] Bluetooth indicator 405;
[0173] Battery status indicator 406;
[0174] A tray 408 with icons for commonly used applications, such as:
[0175] o An icon 416 of the phone module 138 labeled "Phone," which optionally includes an indicator 414 of the number of missed calls or voicemails;
[0176] o an icon 418 of the email client module 140 labeled “Mail”, which optionally includes an indicator 410 of the number of unread emails;
[0177] o An icon 420 labeled "Browser" of the browser module 147; and
[0178] 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
[0179] Icons for other apps, such as:
[0180] o Icon 424 labeled "Message" of IM module 141;
[0181] o An icon 426 labeled “Calendar” of the calendar module 148;
[0182] o Icon 428 labeled “Photos” of the image management module 144;
[0183] o An icon 430 labeled “Camera” of the camera module 143;
[0184] ○ Icon 432 labeled “Online Video” of the online video module 155;
[0185] ○ Icon 434 labeled “Stock Market” of the Stock Market Widget 149 - 2 ;
[0186] o An icon 436 labeled “Map” of the map module 154;
[0187] ○ Icon 438 labeled “Weather” of the weather widget 149-1;
[0188] ○ Icon 440 labeled as “Clock” of the alarm clock widget 149 - 4 ;
[0189] o An icon 442 labeled “Fitness Support” of the fitness support module 142;
[0190] o An icon 444 labeled "Notes" of the notes module 153; and
[0191] 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 .
[0192] It should be noted 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 the corresponding application icon includes the name of the application corresponding to the corresponding 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.
[0193] Figure 4B The example embodiment has a touch-sensitive surface 451 (eg, touch screen display 112) that is separate from a display 450 (eg, touch screen display 112). Figure 3 tablet computer or touch pad 355) 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.
[0194] Although some of the examples below are given with reference to input on a touch screen display 112 (where a touch-sensitive surface and a 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 principal 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) in contact with touch-sensitive surface 451 (e.g., Figure 4B 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 input detected by the device on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., contacts 460 and 462 and their movement) is separated, the device is used to manipulate the user interface on the display. It should be understood that similar methods are optionally used for other user interfaces described herein.
[0195] 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). As 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 contact, followed by ceasing to detect contact). Similarly, when multiple user inputs are detected simultaneously, it should be understood that multiple computer mice are optionally used simultaneously, or a mouse and finger contact are optionally used simultaneously.
[0196] Figure 5AAn exemplary personal electronic device 500 is illustrated. Device 500 includes a body 502. In some embodiments, 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 the foregoing. 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 contact (e.g., touch) applied. One or more intensity sensors of touch screen 504 (or touch-sensitive surface) can provide output data representing the intensity of touch. The user interface of device 500 can respond to touch based on the intensity of the touch, which means that touches of different intensities can invoke different user interface operations on device 500.
[0197] Exemplary techniques for detecting and processing touch intensity are found, for example, in the following related patent applications: International patent application serial number 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 number WO / 2013 / 169849; and International patent application serial number 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 number WO / 2014 / 105276, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0198] In some embodiments, the device 500 has one or more input mechanisms 506 and 508. The 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.
[0199] 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. I / O portion 514 may be connected to a display 504, which may have a touch-sensitive component 522 and optionally a strength sensor 524 (e.g., a contact strength sensor). In addition, I / O portion 514 may 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, input mechanism 506 is optionally a rotatable input device or a depressible input device and a rotatable input device. In some examples, input mechanism 508 is optionally a button.
[0200] In some examples, input mechanism 508 is optionally a microphone. Personal electronic device 500 optionally includes various sensors, such as GPS sensor 532, accelerometer 534, orientation sensor 540 (e.g., compass), gyroscope 536, motion sensor 538, and / or combinations thereof, all of which are operably connected to I / O portion 514.
[0201] The memory 518 of the personal electronic device 500 may include one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media for storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more computer processors 516, may cause the computer processors to perform the techniques described below, including processes 700, 900, 1000, and 1200 (e.g., Figure 7 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 and Fig.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.
[0202] As used herein, the term "indicative representation" refers to an optional feature of the apparatus 100, 300, and / or 500 ( Figure 1A , Figure 3 and FIG. 5A to FIG. 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.
[0203] As used herein, the term "focus selector" refers to an input element used to indicate the current portion of a user interface that a user is interacting with. 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 the display, the particular user interface element is adjusted according to the detected input. In the case that a touch-screen display (e.g., Figure 1A A touch-sensitive display system 112 or Figure 4AIn some implementations of the touch screen 112 in FIG. 1 , a contact detected on the touch screen acts as a “focus selector” such that when an 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 in accordance with 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 in accordance with 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 typically 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 touchscreen), 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).
[0204] As used in the specification and claims, the term "characteristic intensity" of a contact refers to a characteristic of a 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 starts to move, before contact ends, before or after contact intensity is detected to increase, and / or before or after contact intensity is detected to decrease). 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 when 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.
[0205] 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.
[0206] FIG. 6A to FIG. 6K Illustrated are exemplary user interfaces for managing media resolution according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the process described below, including Figure 7 Although described with respect to touch input on a touch-sensitive surface FIG. 6A to FIG. 6K In (and FIG. 8A to FIG. 8X and FIG. 11A to FIG. 11M), but it should be understood that other inputs directed to relevant user interface elements can replace taps, long presses, presses and holds, swipes, and other touch gestures / inputs described herein. For example, a tap can be replaced by a mouse click, a swipe can be replaced by a click and drag, a double tap can be replaced by a double tap, and / or a long press (and / or press and hold) can be replaced by a right click or a single click while holding down a modifier key. Similarly, air gestures such as pinching two fingers together or touching the fingers to a hand can replace a tap, while pinching two fingers together and then moving can replace touch and drag, a double pinch can replace a double tap, and a long pinch can replace a long tap or a tap and hold. In some embodiments, the location of the input pointed to in the user interface is determined based on direct touch (e.g., a tap, double tap, long press, press and hold, or a swipe on a user interface element), but the location of the input pointed to can also be determined based on other indications of user intent, such as the location of a displayed cursor or the location of the user's gaze.
[0207] Fig. 6A A computer system 600 is illustrated that displays a settings user interface. The computer system 600 includes a plurality of cameras (eg, rear-facing cameras) positioned on the back side of the computer system 600 (eg, the side opposite to where the display of the computer system 600 is located). Fig. 6A In some embodiments, the computer system 600 is a tablet computer, a phone, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, and / or a camera. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 optionally includes one or more features of the device 100, the device 300, and / or the device 500.
[0208] FIG. 6A to FIG. 6KAn exemplary embodiment is illustrated in which the computer system 600 captures and generates media (e.g., photographs and / or video media) with different resolutions while capturing the media using the same camera. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 generates media with a first resolution by using a native zoom level of the camera. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 generates media with a second resolution that is different from the first resolution by using an optical resolution based on the native zoom level of the camera. In some embodiments, the native zoom level is a zoom level at which a fixed focus camera is able to capture media without additional digital processing to change the zoom level of the captured image, and the digital zoom level is a zoom level at which a fixed focus camera is not able to capture media without additional digital processing to change the zoom level of the captured image. In some embodiments, FIG. 6A to FIG. 6K The camera used to capture the media is a fixed focus focal length camera (e.g., as described with respect to FIG. 8A to FIG. 8X The 24MM discussed).
[0209] exist Fig. 6A At 690a, the computer system 600 can be configured to generate media having a 12MP or 24MP resolution via the photo resolution setting 690a. Fig. 6A , photo resolution setting 690a is set to 24MP. Thus, computer system 600 will generate media with a 24MP resolution when a set of criteria is met. When photo resolution setting 690a is set to 24MP, computer system 600 will generate media with a 12MP resolution when the set of criteria is not met. As indicated in the text under photo resolution setting 690a, media captured with a camera (e.g., a wide-angle lens camera) may be generated (e.g., and / or saved) at 12MP or 24MP; however, when operating using a night mode (e.g., low-light mode) or flash, computer system 600 will generate media with a 12MP resolution. Thus, the set of criteria includes criteria that are met when computer system 600 is configured to capture media without using a flash and criteria that are met when computer system 600 is not configured to capture low-light media.
[0210] Figure 6BA computer system 600 is illustrated that displays a camera user interface that includes a live preview 630 that optionally extends from the top of the display of the computer system 600 to the bottom of the display of the computer system 600. The live preview 630 is a representation of the field of view ("FOV") of one or more cameras of the computer system 600. Specifically, the live preview 630 is a representation of the FOV of a wide-angle camera (e.g., as discussed above). In some embodiments, the live preview 630 is a representation of a partial FOV of one or more cameras. In some embodiments, the live preview 630 is based on an image detected by one or more camera sensors. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 captures images using multiple camera sensors and combines them to display the live preview 630. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 captures images using a single camera sensor to display the live preview 630. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 captures images using one or more fixed focus cameras to display the live preview. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 captures images at the native zoom level of the fixed focus camera to display the live preview 630. In some implementations, the computer system 600 applies digital zoom to a captured image (eg, an image captured at a native zoom level) to display the live preview 630 . Figure 6B The camera user interface of 604 includes an indicator area 602 and a control area 606, which are positioned relative to the live preview 630 so that the indicators and controls can be displayed simultaneously with the live preview 630. The camera display area 604 (e.g., which includes the live preview 630) is substantially not covered by indicators and / or controls (e.g., most indicators and controls of the camera user interface (e.g., described below with respect to Figure 6B discussed) is not displayed above the live preview 630). Figure 6B As illustrated, the camera user interface includes a visual border 608 indicating a border between the indicator area 602 and the camera display area 604 and a border between the camera display area 604 and the controls area 606 .
[0211] like Figure 6B As illustrated, the indicator area 602 includes indicators such as a flash indicator 602a, a mode-setting indicator 602b, and an animated image indicator 602c. The flash indicator 602a indicates whether the flash mode is on (e.g., active), off (e.g., inactive), or in another mode (e.g., automatic mode). Figure 6B, flash indicator 602a indicates that the flash mode is off, so the flash will not be used when the computer system 600 is capturing media. In addition, mode-setting indicator 602b, when selected, causes the computer system 600 to replace the camera mode control 620 with one or more controls that, when selected, change the currently selected camera mode (e.g., Figure 6B 602c indicates whether the camera is configured to capture a single image or / and multiple images (e.g., in response to detecting a request to capture media). Here, animated image indicator 602 indicates that the computer system is configured to capture a single image in response to detecting a request to capture media (e.g., via a slash across indicator 602). In some embodiments, indicator area 602 is overlaid on live preview 630 and optionally includes a colored (e.g., gray and / or semi-transparent) overlay.
[0212] like Figure 6B As illustrated, the camera display area 604 includes a live preview 630 and zoom controls (e.g., affordances) 622. The zoom controls 622 include a 0.5x zoom control 622a, a 1x zoom control 622b, a 2x zoom control 622c, and a 3x zoom control 622d. Figure 6B As illustrated, the 1x zoom control 622b is enlarged and bolded compared to the other zoom controls, indicating that the 1x zoom control 622b is selected and the computer system 600 displays the live preview 630 at the 1x zoom level. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays that the 1x zoom control 622b is selected by displaying the 1x zoom control 622b in a different color than the other zoom controls.
[0213] like Figure 6B As illustrated, control area 606 includes camera mode controls 620, shutter controls 610, camera switcher controls 614, and representations of media collections 612. Figure 6B , camera mode controls 620a-620e are displayed, including a movie video mode control 620a, a video mode control 620b, a photo mode control 620c, a portrait mode control 620d, and a panoramic mode control 620e. Figure 6BAs illustrated, the photo mode control 620c is selected, which is indicated by the photo mode control 620c being bold and located in the center of the camera user interface. When the photo mode control 620c is selected, the computer system 600 initiates (e.g., and / or captures) the capture of photo media (e.g., still photos) in response to the computer system 600 detecting an input pointing to the shutter control 610. The photo media captured by the computer system 600 represents a live preview 630 displayed when the input pointing to the shutter control 610 is detected. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input pointing to the movie video control 620a, the computer system 600 is configured to initiate the capture of movie video media (e.g., movie video) in response to detecting an input pointing to the shutter control 610, wherein a synthetic depth of field effect is applied to one or more portions of the captured video. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input pointing to the video mode control 620b, the computer system 600 configures the camera application to initiate the capture of video media (e.g., video) in response to detecting an input pointing to the shutter control 610. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input directed to portrait mode control 620b, computer system 600 is configured to initiate capture of portrait media (e.g., a still photo and / or a still photo with background blur applied) in response to detecting input directed to shutter control 610. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input directed to panoramic mode control 620e, computer system 600 is configured to initiate capture of panoramic media (e.g., a still photo that is larger than a still photo taken when photo capture mode is selected) in response to detecting input directed to shutter control 610. In some embodiments, computer system 600 displays a set of specific indicators and / or controls on the camera user interface based on the selected camera mode (e.g., and / or the camera mode in which computer system 600 is configured to operate based on the selected camera mode). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 transitions to operating in a different camera mode based on input directed to the camera display 604 (e.g., a swipe input and / or a drag input, and in some embodiments, a non-swipe input, such as a click and drag input, an air gesture (e.g., a pinch and move input), a gaze input, and / or a combination thereof) (e.g., without input directed to a specific camera mode control), as described below with respect to Fig. 6F Further discussion.
[0214] exist Figure 6B At , shutter control 610, when selected, causes computer system 600 to capture media using one or more camera sensors (e.g., at Figure 6BThe computer system 600 captures media based on the current state of the live preview 630 (or the FOV of one or more cameras) and the current state of the camera application (e.g., which camera mode is selected). The camera switcher control 614, when selected, causes the computer system 600 to switch between the FOVs of at least two sets of cameras and update the live preview 630, such as by switching between a rear-facing camera sensor and a front-facing camera sensor. Figure 6B The illustrated representation of media collection 612 is a representation of media (e.g., photos and / or videos) that was recently captured by computer system 600. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input directed to media collection 612, computer system 600 displays an enlarged representation of the media that was recently captured by computer system 600. Figure 6B At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650b1 on the shutter control 610. Figure 6B At , in response to detecting the tap input 650b1, the computer system 600 generates (e.g., saves and / or captures) photo media (e.g., because the photo mode control 620c is selected) using a corresponding camera (e.g., a Wide-angle camera as discussed above and / or another camera (e.g., a Telephoto camera and / or an Ultra Wide-angle camera)).
[0215] Figure 6C An example is shown in Figure 6B Here, the metadata 670a includes camera information 670a1, which indicates that the photo has a resolution of 24MP. Figure 6B , the computer system 600 generates a photo with a 24MP resolution because the set of criteria is met (e.g., at the time the tap input 650b1 is detected) and because Fig. 6A The photo resolution setting of 690a is set to 24MP. Figure 6B At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650b2 on the flash light indicator 602a.
[0216] exist Fig.6D In response to detecting a tap input 650b2 on the flash indicator 602a and after detecting the tap input 650b1, the computer system 600 configures the camera application to capture media using the flash (and / or is configured to perform a flash operation in response to detecting an input on the shutter control 610). In addition, in response to the tap input 650b2, the computer system 600 updates the flash indicator 602a to indicate the change in configuration (e.g., removing the slash from the flash indicator 602a). Fig.6D As illustrated, computer system 600 has updated the representation of media collection 612 to include Figure 6BA thumbnail of a photo generated at (e.g., in response to detecting input 650b1). Fig.6D At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650d on the shutter control 610. Fig.6D At, the computer system 600 uses Fig.6D The photo media is generated by the corresponding camera of the live preview 630 at (or representing the FOV of the corresponding camera).
[0217] Fig. 6E An example is shown in Fig.6D Here, the metadata 670b includes camera information 670b1 indicating that the photo has a resolution of 12MP (e.g., instead of 24MP). Fig.6D , the computer system 600 generates a photo with a resolution of 12MP (e.g., using a corresponding camera) because the set of criteria is not met. Since the computer system 600 is configured to use Fig.6D The flash at 650d is used to capture media (e.g., when input 650d is detected on shutter control 610), and therefore does not meet this set of criteria. FIG. 6B to FIG. 6D , the computer system 600 generates photo media with different resolutions using the same camera, and the computer system 600 is configured with the same capture settings except that the flash mode is active and / or inactive. Therefore, the computer system 600 automatically selects the resolution of the generated photo media without the need for input from the user to specify and / or control the resolution at which a specific photo will be generated. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 generates media with a higher resolution by anti-merging (unbinning) pixels from media captured at a lower resolution (e.g., 12MP or 8MP). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 generates media with a higher resolution (e.g., 24MP or 20MP) by combining images (e.g., photos) captured at native resolution. In some embodiments, an image is captured in response to detecting a single input on the shutter control 610. In some embodiments, when it is determined that multiple images captured by the computer system 600 may be captured under consistent conditions, the computer system 600 generates media with a higher resolution. Thus, in some embodiments, when it is determined that multiple images captured by computer system 600 could not have been captured under consistent conditions, computer system 600 generates media at a lower resolution. Fig.6DIn some embodiments, the computer system 600 generates media having a lower resolution because the computer system 600 only captures one photograph when flash operation is active and / or because capturing multiple images to generate photographic media having a higher resolution would require combining images of different light levels (e.g., where the light level of a particular image depends on when the image is captured relative to flash operation (e.g., at the beginning, middle, and / or end of flash operation)).
[0218] exist Fig. 6F At , computer system 600 detects that the low light criteria are met. In response to detecting that the low light criteria are met, computer system 600 is configured to capture media while operating in low light mode and display low light indicator 602d. Low light indicator 602d indicates that the capture time for low light mode is set to one second. In addition, computer system 600 has also updated the representation of media collection 612 to include Fig.6D A thumbnail of a photo taken at (e.g., in response to detecting input 650d). In some embodiments, the low light criteria include a criterion that is met when the ambient light in the field of view of one or more cameras is below a threshold (e.g., 0.1 lux to 20 lux). In some embodiments, the capture time of the low light mode depends on the amount of ambient light detected. In some embodiments, the capture time of the low light mode increases (e.g., linearly or nonlinearly) as the detected ambient light decreases. In some embodiments, the capture time of the low light mode decreases (e.g., linearly or nonlinearly) as the detected ambient light increases. Fig. 6F At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650f1 on the shutter control 610. Fig. 6F In response to detecting the tap input 650f1, the computer system 600 generates photo media using the corresponding camera. The media generated in response to detecting the tap input 650f1 has a Fig. 6E The 670b1 has similar camera information metadata, where the media has a resolution of 12MP. Fig. 6F At , the computer system 600 generates photo media at a lower resolution because the set of criteria is not met (e.g., because the computer system 600 is configured to capture low-light media when the tap input 650f1 is detected on the shutter control 610). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 combines multiple images to capture media when operating in low-light mode. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 captures multiple images by using different shutter speeds and / or exposure levels for some of the multiple images. Therefore, in some embodiments, the computer system 600 is configured to generate media at a lower resolution (e.g., 12MP or 8MP) rather than a higher resolution because there are potential differences in the quality of different images captured by the computer system when operating in low-light mode (e.g., due to differences in the quality of the images captured by the computer system when operating in low-light mode as described above). Fig.6D for similar reasons as discussed in Fig. 6F At , the computer system detects a swipe input 650f2 on the live preview 630.
[0219] like Figure 6G As illustrated, in response to detecting a swipe input 650f on the live preview 630, the computer system 600 moves the camera mode control 620 to the right and displays the video mode control 620b as selected (e.g., bold). Figure 6G At , the computer system 600 is configured to operate in video mode. Figure 6G At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650g on the shutter control 610. Figure 6H As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 650g, the computer system replaces the shutter control 610 with the stop control 616. Figure 6H At , the computer system 600 begins capturing video media using the corresponding camera (e.g., in response to detecting a tap input 650g on a shutter control). Figure 6H At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650h on the stop control 616 and, in response, stops the capture of the video media. Fig.6I An example is shown in FIG. 6G to FIG. 6H 670c. Here, the video media has a 1080p resolution (e.g., as indicated by camera interface 670c1). FIG. 6H to FIG. 6I In some embodiments, the computer system captures the video media using a native zoom level (e.g., no digital zoom is applied when a 1x zoom level is selected). FIG. 6G to FIG. 6H The bold 1x zoom control 622b in the figure indicates that FIG. 6H to FIG. 6I The 1x zoom level is selected in the
[0220] Figure 6J Shows an example Fig. 6A The computer system 600 includes a setting user interface. The setting user interface includes a photo resolution setting 690a, a professional original setting 690b, and a professional resolution setting 690c. Figure 6J At this point, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 650j1 on the photo resolution setting 690a and a tap input 650j2 on the professional original setting 690b. Figure 6KAs illustrated, in response to detecting tap input 650j1, computer system 600 disables photo resolution setting 690a. Disabling photo resolution setting 690a causes computer system 600 to be configured to generate media having a 12MP resolution (e.g., while the computer system is configured to capture media at a particular zoom level (e.g., 1x, 2x, or 3x)), regardless of whether the set of media standards are met. Figure 6K As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 650j2, the computer system 600 changes the professional original setting 690b from the off state to the on state. Figure 6K As illustrated, in response to detecting tap input 650j2, computer system 600 displays pro raw resolution setting 690b1, which indicates that computer system 600 is configured to generate media having a resolution of 48MP when pro raw mode is active. A resolution of 48MP is greater than a resolution of 24MP (e.g., a maximum resolution to which photo resolution setting 690a can be set (e.g., for discussion purposes herein only)). Thus, computer system 600 can be configured to generate media having a higher resolution than a resolution to which photo resolution setting 690a can be set (e.g., a maximum resolution). In some embodiments, the maximum resolution to which photo resolution setting 690a can be set is greater than or less than a resolution of 24MP.
[0221] Figure 7700 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing media resolution using a computer system according to some embodiments. Method 700 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, and / or 600) (e.g., a smart watch, a wearable electronic device, a smart phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, or a head-mounted device (e.g., a head-mounted augmented reality and / or extended reality device)), the computer system having one or more cameras (e.g., one or more cameras on the same side or different sides of the electronic device (e.g., dual cameras, triple cameras, quad cameras, etc.) (e.g., front cameras and / or rear cameras)) (e.g., one or more 12M P to 48MP camera) (e.g., one or more 13MM, 24MM, 28MM, 32MM, 38MM and / or 77MM focal length cameras) (e.g., one or more fixed focal length cameras) (e.g., hardware cameras and / or camera sensors (e.g., wide-angle cameras and / or camera sensors, cameras with wide-angle width) and / or (e.g., telephoto cameras)) (e.g., sensor size, shape and / or arrangement; lens shape, size and / or arrangement; and / or aperture size, shape and / or arrangement) (e.g., first minimum focusing distance ( For example, 7 to 12 cm or 12 to 15 cm) and a first field of view (e.g., the open observable area visible to the camera, the horizontal (or vertical or diagonal) length of the image at a given distance from the camera lens) (and in some embodiments, a hardware or optical field of view (FOV) based on the sensor size and the focal length of the lens (e.g., a FOV that is not digitally magnified))), for example, a second minimum focusing distance (e.g., 0 to 6 cm or 7 to 12 cm) shorter than the first minimum focusing distance of the first camera (e.g., 7 to 12 cm or 12 to 15 cm) and / or a second field of view wider than the first field of view of the first camera (e.g., a FOV with a wider viewing angle in at least one dimension)) (e.g., a wide-angle camera) (e.g., a hardware camera and / or a camera sensor (e.g., a telephoto camera and / or a camera sensor, a camera with width)) (e.g., a camera different from the first camera and / or the second camera) (e.g., a third minimum focusing distance longer than the first minimum focusing distance of the first camera and the second minimum focusing distance of the second camera and / or a third field of view narrower than the first field of view and / or the second field of view). In some embodiments, the computer system communicates with (and / or includes) a display generation component (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, and / or a head-mounted display system). In some embodiments, the computer system includes and / or communicates with one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface and / or a first camera in one or more cameras (e.g., one or more cameras on the same side or different sides of the computer system (e.g., dual cameras, triple cameras, quad cameras, and / or other camera configurations) (e.g., a front-facing camera and a rear-facing camera)).In some embodiments, the computer system includes and / or comprises one or more output devices (e.g., a speaker, a display generation component, and / or a tactile output device). Some operations in method 700 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.
[0222] As described below, method 700 provides an intuitive way to manage media resolution. The method reduces the cognitive burden on users to manage media resolution, thereby creating a more efficient human-computer interface. For battery-powered computing devices, enabling users to manage media resolution faster and more efficiently saves power and increases the time interval between battery charges.
[0223] A computer system (e.g., 600) detects (702) a request (e.g., 650b2, 650d, 650f, and / or 650g) to capture visual media (e.g., a photo and / or video) (e.g., when the computer system is configured to capture media and / or when the computer system is displaying a camera user interface that includes a camera controls area). In some embodiments, the computer system displays a camera controls area that includes a plurality of selectable user interface objects for camera capture modes. In some embodiments, each camera mode (e.g., video mode, photo / still mode, portrait mode, slow motion mode, movie mode, and / or panoramic mode) has a plurality of settings (e.g., for portrait capture mode: studio lighting settings, contour lighting settings, and / or stage lighting settings) having a plurality of values (e.g., light levels for each setting) for the mode (e.g., portrait capture mode) in which the camera (e.g., camera sensor) is operating to capture media (including post-processing that is automatically performed after capture). Thus, for example, a capture mode is different from a mode that does not affect how a camera operates when capturing media or does not include multiple settings (e.g., a flash mode having one setting that has multiple values (e.g., inactive, active, and / or automatic)). In some embodiments, the capture modes allow a user to capture different types of media (e.g., photos or videos), and the settings of each mode can be optimized (e.g., via post-processing) to capture a specific type of media corresponding to a specific mode, the specific mode having specified properties (e.g., shape (e.g., square and / or rectangular), speed (e.g., slow motion and / or time lapse), audio, and / or video). For example, when the computer system is configured to operate in a still photo capture mode, one or more cameras of the computer system, when activated, utilize specific settings (e.g., flash settings and / or one or more filter settings) to capture a first type of media (e.g., rectangular photos). In some embodiments, when the computer system is configured to operate in a square capture mode, one or more cameras of the computer system, when activated, utilize specific settings (e.g., flash settings and / or one or more filters) to capture a second type of media (e.g., square photos). In some embodiments, when the computer system is configured to operate in a slow-motion capture mode, one or more cameras of the computer system, when activated, utilize specific settings (e.g., flash settings and / or frames per second capture speed) to capture a third type of media (e.g., slow-motion video). In some embodiments, when the computer system is configured to operate in a portrait capture mode, one or more cameras of the computer system utilize specific settings (e.g., the amount of a specific type of light (e.g., stage light, studio light, contour light, and / or other simulated lighting patterns), f-stops, and / or blur) to capture a fifth type of media (e.g., a portrait photo (e.g., a photo with a blurred background)).In some embodiments, when the computer system is configured to operate in a panoramic capture mode, one or more cameras of the computer system capture a fourth type of media (e.g., a panoramic photo (e.g., a wide photo)) using specific settings (e.g., the amount of field of view to be captured when zooming and / or panning). In some embodiments, when switching between capture modes, the display of the representation of the field of view changes to correspond to the type of media to be captured by the capture mode (e.g., when the computer system is operating in a still photo capture mode, the representation is rectangular, and when the computer system is operating in a square capture mode, the representation is square). In some embodiments, when the computer system is in a cinematic video mode, the computer system is configured to apply a synthetic depth of field effect to alter the visual information to emphasize individuals in one or more frames of the media.
[0224] In response to (704) detecting a request to capture visual media, the computer system (e.g., 600) initiates capture of visual media via one or more cameras, including: generating (706) visual captured media having a first resolution (e.g., image and / or visual resolution (e.g., quantified as pixel count / density (e.g., 800×1200, 2272×1704, 2592×1944, 3072×2304, 3264×2448, 3648×2736, 4000×3000, 4416×3312, or 5616×3744)), line resolution, and / or temporal resolution (e.g., frames per second)) based on determining that a first set of environmental conditions affecting media capture is detected (e.g., as described with respect to FIG. 1 ). Fig. 6E and / or Fig.6I discussed).
[0225] In response to detecting (704) a request to capture visual media, the computer system (e.g., 600) initiates capture of visual media via one or more cameras, including: based on determining that a second set of environmental conditions affecting media capture is detected, wherein the second set of media capture conditions is different from the first set of media capture conditions, generating (708) visual captured media having a second resolution different from (e.g., greater than or less than) the first resolution (e.g., as described with respect to Figure 6CDiscussed). In some embodiments, the second set of environmental conditions is detected when the first set of environmental conditions is not detected, or vice versa. In some embodiments, generating visual capture media with a second resolution includes combining multiple images that have been captured in response to detecting a request to capture visual media, initiating the capture of visual media via one or more cameras. In some embodiments, capture, analyze and / or process (e.g., via a neural engine or neural network) multiple images (e.g., 2, 5, 7 or 9 images) to generate a single composite image using portions of one or more of the multiple images. In some embodiments, one or more images are captured at different shutter speeds (e.g., 3 to 10 images are captured using a first shutter speed, 1 to 7 images are captured using a second shutter speed that is longer than the first shutter speed, and 3 to 10 images are captured using a third shutter speed that is different from the first shutter speed and the second shutter speed). In some embodiments, multiple images are captured at various times relative to a request to capture media (e.g., where some images are captured before the request) (e.g., images are captured on a continuous basis, where images captured in a predetermined time period before the request are synthesized with images captured after the request). In some embodiments, machine learning (e.g., using a neural network and / or engine) is used to combine and / or merge multiple images, wherein one or more pixels are selected from one or more of the multiple images and / or one or more pixels from the multiple images are used to optimize one or more pixels in a single image generated from the multiple images. In some embodiments, generating visually captured media having a second resolution does not include combining multiple images that have been captured in response to detecting a request to capture visual media, initiating capture of visual media via one or more cameras. Generating visually captured media having a specific resolution based on detecting a set of specific environmental conditions that affect media capture allows a computer system to automatically and dynamically adjust the resolution of generated visually captured media based on the environment, which performs operations without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0226] In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions includes lighting conditions based on the amount of light (e.g., ambient light) in the field of view of the one or more cameras (e.g., as described above with respect to Fig. 6FAs discussed). In some embodiments, the second set of environmental conditions includes lighting conditions based on the amount of light in the field of view of one or more cameras. In some embodiments, the second set of environmental conditions includes lighting conditions detected when the amount of ambient light (e.g., detected light) in the field of view of one or more cameras is above a threshold value (e.g., 0 to 20 lux) (e.g., based on this point, at this point, after this point and / or as a result of this point) (in some embodiments, at least this point). In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions includes lighting conditions detected when the amount of ambient light in the field of view of one or more cameras is below a threshold value. In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions is detected when the computer system is in low light camera mode, and the second set of environmental conditions is detected when the computer system is not in low light camera mode. In some embodiments, when the low light conditions are met, the low light camera mode is active (or the computer system is in low light camera mode). In some embodiments, a low light condition is met when the low light condition includes ambient light in a field of view of a first camera in one or more cameras being below a corresponding threshold (e.g., 20 lux) and / or being between a corresponding range (e.g., between 20 lux and 0 lux), when a user selects (e.g., turns on) a low light status indicator (e.g., an indicator indicating whether the computer system is operating in a low light camera mode), and / or when the condition is detected when a user turns on and / or activates a setting for activating a low light camera mode. In some embodiments, when the low light camera mode is active, the flash mode is not active, or vice versa. Generating visual captured media with a specific resolution based on lighting conditions based on the amount of light in the field of view of one or more cameras allows the computer system to automatically and dynamically adjust the resolution of generated visual captured media based on the amount of light in the environment, which performs operations when a set of conditions have been met without further user input.
[0227] In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions includes conditions detected based on whether a flash for media capture is enabled (e.g., and / or whether a flash operation is performed when capturing media and / or when a request to capture media is detected) (e.g., such as conditions regarding Fig. 6FAs discussed). In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions includes conditions detected when flash operation is active when capturing media (e.g., flash operation is initiated in response to detecting a request to capture visual media). In some embodiments, the second set of environmental conditions includes conditions detected when flash operation is inactive when capturing media (e.g., flash operation is not initiated in response to detecting a request to capture visual media). In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions includes conditions detected when flash operation is active when capturing media because flash operation (e.g., light flashes) is used only during a portion of media capture (e.g., rather than during the total time), and in some embodiments, images captured in different lighting conditions (e.g., one or more images captured during the flash and one or more images captured after the flash (e.g., in response to a single request to capture media)) are combined to create a higher resolution image (e.g., an image created when the second set of environmental conditions is detected). Generating visual captured media with a specific resolution based on whether a flash operation was active when the media was captured allows a computer system to automatically and dynamically adjust the resolution of generated visual captured media based on whether the media was captured using a flash, which is performed when a set of conditions have been met without further user input.
[0228] In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions and the second set of environmental conditions do not include a dependency on (e.g., not dependent on and / or independent of) a user-configurable resolution setting (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 6B to FIG. 6C In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions and the second set of environmental conditions are independent of the user-configurable resolution setting and / or are not detected based on changes to the user-configurable resolution setting and / or are not detected based on the user-configurable resolution setting. Generating visual captured media with a specific resolution based on detecting a specific set of conditions that are independent of the user-configurable resolution setting allows the computer system to automatically and dynamically adjust the resolution at which visual captured media is generated without regard to the user-configurable settings so as to dynamically generate enhanced / preferred media during capture without user input, which performs operations without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0229] In some embodiments, the second resolution is more than fifty percent greater than the first resolution (eg, based on pixel count).
[0230] In some embodiments, generating visually captured media having a first resolution includes generating a corresponding field of view having one or more cameras (e.g., Fig. 6EIn some embodiments, generating visually captured media having a second resolution includes generating a corresponding field of view having one or more cameras (e.g., Figure 6C In some embodiments, visual captured media having a first resolution does not include a portion of the field of view that visual captured media having a second resolution does not include, and vice versa. Generating visual captured media having a particular resolution based on detecting a set of particular conditions (wherein the captured media generated at two different resolutions include the same field of view) allows for automatic and dynamic adjustment of the resolution of generated visual captured media with minimal disruption to the intended field of view of one or more cameras represented in the captured media, which is performed without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0231] In some embodiments, generating visual captured media having a first resolution includes using one or more capture settings (e.g., a focus setting (e.g., a focus setting that configures a camera to focus at a specific location and / or a specific plane in a field of view of one or more cameras), an exposure time, an exposure compensation, one or more media characteristic settings (e.g., a tint and / or color temperature), a timer setting (e.g., a setting that configures a computer system to delay the time at which an image is captured), an aspect ratio setting, a shutter speed setting, a filter effect, and / or an f-stop) in a corresponding state (e.g., a state common to all settings at a certain instance in time (e.g., before a request to capture media is detected)) (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 6B to FIG. 6C In some embodiments, generating visual captured media having a second resolution includes using one or more capture settings in a corresponding state (e.g., as discussed above with respect to FIG. 6B to FIG. 6C In some embodiments, the computer system is configured to capture media based on the state of one or more capture settings. Generating visual captured media with a specific resolution based on detecting a set of specific conditions that are independent of the one or more capture settings of the computer system allows the computer system to automatically and dynamically adjust the resolution of the generated visual captured media without regard to the state of the one or more capture settings, which performs operations without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0232] In some embodiments, the second resolution is less than the maximum resolution that can be used to generate visual media captured using one or more cameras (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 6KIn some embodiments, the computer system generates captured media with maximum resolution based on the raw settings and / or an optional user interface object for controlling the file format of the captured media being enabled (e.g., active and / or open). In some embodiments, in response to detecting input on a control for the raw settings, the computer system switches between enabling and disabling the raw settings. In some embodiments, the raw settings are displayed simultaneously with one or more other camera setting controls. In some embodiments, the one or more other camera setting controls include a control that, when selected, switches between active and / or inactive flash mode. In some embodiments, the one or more other camera setting controls include a control that, when selected, sets an amount of exposure compensation to be applied when capturing media. In some embodiments, the one or more other camera setting controls include a setting that, when selected, switches between active and / or inactive low light mode.
[0233] In some embodiments, based on determining that a first user-configurable setting (e.g., 690a) (e.g., a resolution setting) is in a first state (e.g., a state that does not cause the computer system to be configured to generate visual media having a corresponding maximum resolution and / or a selected resolution (e.g., a third resolution and / or a fourth resolution) that can be used to generate visual media captured using one or more cameras), the second resolution is a third resolution (e.g., as described above with respect to Fig. 6A , Figure 6J and Figure 6K In some embodiments, based on determining that the first user-configurable setting (e.g., 690a) is in a second state that is different from the first state (e.g., a state that does not cause the computer system to be configured to generate visual media having a corresponding maximum resolution and / or a selected resolution (e.g., a third resolution and / or a fourth resolution) that can be used to generate visual media captured using one or more cameras), the second resolution is a fourth resolution that is lower than the third resolution (e.g., as described above with respect to Fig. 6A , Figure 6J and Figure 6KAs discussed). In some embodiments, a computer system displays a control for managing a first user-configurable setting. In some embodiments, while displaying a control for managing a first user-configurable setting, the computer system detects an input directed to the first control (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input directed to the first control and based on determining that the first user-configurable setting is in a first state when the input directed to the first control is detected, the computer system sets the first user-configurable setting to be in a second state. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input directed to the first control and based on determining that the first user-configurable setting is in a second state when the input directed to the first control is detected, the computer system sets the first user-configurable setting to be in a first state. Generating visual capture media at a resolution based on the state of the first user-configurable setting provides the user with control over the resolution at which the visual capture media is generated, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0234] In some embodiments, the first set of environmental conditions includes conditions detected when setting user-configurable settings for capturing media at a first resolution (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 6J to 6K In some embodiments, the second set of environmental conditions is not detected when the user-configurable setting for capturing media at the first resolution is set. Generating visual captured media at the first resolution when determining that the user-configurable setting for capturing media at the first resolution is set provides the user with control over the resolution at which the visual captured media is generated, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0235] In some embodiments, the first resolution is the resolution used to capture the video media (e.g., as described with respect to FIG. 6G to FIG. 6H Discussed) (and the second resolution is not a resolution for capturing video media). In some embodiments, a first set of environmental conditions is detected upon determining that the request to capture visual media is a request to capture video media. In some embodiments, a second set of environmental conditions is not detected upon determining that the request to capture visual media is a request to capture video media. Generating visual captured media at a first resolution upon determining that the request to capture visual media is a request to capture video media allows a computer system to automatically and dynamically adjust the resolution at which visual captured media is generated based on the type of media being captured, which performs operations without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0236] In some embodiments, the one or more cameras include a fixed focus camera (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 6A to FIG. 6B discussed) (e.g., one or more fixed focal length cameras) (e.g., hardware cameras and / or camera sensors (e.g., wide-angle cameras and / or camera sensors, cameras with wide-angle width) and / or (e.g., telephoto cameras)) (e.g., sensor size, shape, and / or arrangement; lens shape, size, and / or arrangement; and / or aperture size, shape, and / or arrangement) (e.g., a first minimum focusing distance (e.g., 7 to 12 cm or 12 to 15 cm) and a first field of view (e.g., an open observable area visible to the camera, the horizontal (or vertical or diagonal) length of an image at a given distance from the camera lens) (and in some embodiments, a hardware or optical field of view (FOV) based on the sensor size and lens focal length (e.g., not digitally magnified FOV))), such as a second minimum focusing distance (e.g., 0 to 6 cm or 7 to 12 cm) shorter than the first minimum focusing distance (e.g., 7 to 12 cm or 12 to 15 cm) of the first camera and / or a second field of view wider than the first field of view of the first camera (e.g., a FOV having a wider viewing angle in at least one dimension)) (e.g., a wide-angle camera) (e.g., a hardware camera and / or camera sensor (e.g., a telephoto camera and / or camera sensor, a camera with width)) (e.g., a camera different from the first camera and / or the second camera) (e.g., a third minimum focusing distance longer than the first minimum focusing distance of the first camera and the second minimum focusing distance of the second camera and / or a third field of view narrower than the first field of view and / or the second field of view). In some embodiments, initiating capture of visual media via one or more cameras includes (in some embodiments, is) initiating capture of visual media via a fixed focus camera. In some embodiments, the first resolution is a native resolution of a fixed focus camera (e.g., an unaltered (e.g., digitally altered) and / or non-digital resolution and / or a resolution generated without using digital zoom and / or a resolution generated using a native, original, non-digital and / or natural zoom of a fixed focus camera) (e.g., as described above with respect to Fig. 6A In some embodiments, the second resolution is not a native resolution of the fixed focus camera (e.g., a digital resolution and / or a resolution generated using digital zoom and / or a resolution generated without using native, original, non-digital and / or natural zoom of the fixed focus camera) (e.g., as discussed above with respect to Fig. 6AAs discussed above. In some embodiments, as part of generating media having a first resolution, digital scaling is not applied to the media (e.g., after the media is captured) in order to achieve the first resolution. In some embodiments, as part of generating media having a second resolution, digital scaling is applied to the media (e.g., after the media is captured) in order to achieve the second resolution. Generating visually captured media having a specific resolution that is either a native resolution of a fixed focus camera or a resolution that is not native to a fixed focus camera based on detecting a set of specific conditions allows for automatically and dynamically adjusting the resolution of generated visually captured media by using the native resolution of a fixed focus camera or a non-resolution of a fixed focus camera, which operates without further user input when a set of conditions have been met and gives the computer system the ability to generate media having an extended number of resolutions that are not native to the fixed focus camera of the computer system.
[0237] It should be noted that the process described above with respect to method 700 (eg, Figure 7 ) also apply in a similar manner to the methods described herein. For example, method 900 optionally includes one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 700. For example, the computer system can use the techniques described with respect to method 700 to capture media with a resolution at a selected zoom level set using one or more techniques described with respect to method 900. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated below.
[0238] FIG. 8A to FIG. 8X Illustrated are exemplary user interfaces for managing zoom levels of captured media according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including Fig. 9 and Fig.10 process.
[0239] Fig. 8A A computer system 600 is illustrated that displays a camera user interface that includes an indicator area 602, a camera display area 604, and a control area 606. The indicator area 602 includes a flash indicator 602a, a mode-setting indicator 602b, and an animated image indicator 602c, which have the same functions as described above with respect to FIG. FIG. 6A to FIG. 6K The camera display area 604 includes a live preview 630 and a zoom control 622, which has the same functions as described above with respect to FIG. 6A to FIG. 6K One or more of the characteristics described. Fig. 8A, 1x zoom control 622b is displayed as selected, while 0.5x zoom control 622a, 2x zoom control 622c, and 3x zoom control 622d are not displayed as selected. Control area 606 includes camera mode control 620, shutter control 610, camera switcher control 614, and representation of media collection 612, which have the same meaning as described above with respect to FIG. 6A to FIG. 6K One or more of the characteristics described. Fig. 8A , camera mode controls 620 are displayed, including movie video mode controls 620a, video mode controls 620b, photo mode controls 620c, portrait mode controls 620d, and / or panoramic mode controls 620e. Fig. 8A As illustrated, the photo mode control 620c is selected, which is indicated by the photo mode control 620c being bold and located in the center of the camera user interface. When the photo mode control 620c is selected, the computer system 600 initiates (e.g., and / or captures) the capture of photo media (e.g., a still photo) in response to the computer system 600 detecting an input directed to the shutter control 610. The photo media captured by the computer system 600 represents the live preview 630 displayed when the input is directed to the shutter control 610.
[0240] As mentioned above about Fig. 6A As described, the computer system 600 includes a computer located at Fig. 8A Multiple cameras on the back side of the computer system 600 at Fig. 8A In the embodiment, the plurality of cameras are different from each other, wherein each camera has different hardware specifications (e.g., camera sensor size, shape, and / or arrangement, camera lens shape, size, and / or arrangement, and / or aperture size, shape, and / or arrangement). Due to the different hardware specifications, each camera has a different set of image capture parameters, such as minimum focus distance, maximum and / or minimum field of view, focal length, aperture size range, native zoom level, and / or maximum / minimum optical (or digital) zoom. Fig. 8A, the zoom controls 622 include a 0.5x zoom control 622a, a 1x zoom control 622b, a 2x zoom control 622c, and a 3x zoom control 622d. In response to detecting input directed to the 0.5x zoom control 622a, the computer system 600 configures the camera application to capture media using the native zoom level of a first camera (e.g., a rear-facing camera, and / or in some embodiments, an ultra-wide-angle camera) of the computer system 600. In response to detecting input directed to the 1x zoom control 622b, the computer system 600 configures the camera application to capture media using the native zoom level of a second camera (e.g., a rear-facing camera, and / or in some embodiments, a wide-angle camera) of the computer system 600. In response to detecting input directed to the 3x zoom control 622d, the computer system 600 configures the camera application to capture media using the native zoom level of a third camera (e.g., a rear-facing camera, and / or in some embodiments, a telephoto camera) of the computer system 600. In response to detecting input directed to the 2x zoom control 622c, the computer system 600 configures the camera application to capture media using the digital zoom corresponding to the second camera (or the first camera or the third camera). Fig. 8AAt , the computer system 600 displays native zoom controls (0.5x, 1x and / or 3x) and digital zoom controls (e.g., 2x or 2.5x). In some embodiments, the native zoom controls are controls that configure the computer system to capture media at a zoom level at which a fixed focus camera can capture media without additional digital processing to change the zoom level of the captured image, and the digital zoom controls are controls that configure the computer system to capture media at a zoom level at which a fixed focus camera cannot capture media without additional digital processing to change the zoom level of the captured image. In some embodiments, the first camera, the second camera, and the third camera are fixed focus cameras. In some embodiments, the first camera, the second camera, and the third camera are all different cameras. In some embodiments, the first camera has a wider FOV than the second camera, and the second camera has a wider FOV than the third camera. In some embodiments, the first camera is an ultra-wide angle camera (e.g., a 5MM to 15MM fixed focus camera), the second camera is a wide angle camera (e.g., a 20MM to 30MM fixed focus camera), and the third camera is a telephoto camera (e.g., a 70MM to 80MM fixed focus camera). In some embodiments, when the camera user interface is initially displayed, zoom controls 622a-622d (e.g., default zoom controls) are displayed simultaneously. In some embodiments, the computer system initially displays zoom controls 622a-622d in response to detecting an input on the camera user interface (e.g., an input that causes the computer system to change from operating in a first camera mode to a second camera mode). In some embodiments, the computer system initially displays the camera user interface in response to detecting an input on a non-camera user interface.
[0241] In some embodiments, zoom controls 622a-622d are displayed when computer system 600 is operating in a camera mode other than a photo camera mode. Fig. 8A At , the computer system 600 detects a right swipe input 850a1.
[0242] like Figure 8B As illustrated, in response to detecting the right swipe input 850a1, the computer system 600 displays a settings user interface (e.g., a previously viewed user interface). The settings user interface includes a custom primary lens control 890. Figure 8B At 850b, the computer system detects a tap input 850b on the custom primary lens control 890. Figure 8CAs illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 850b, the computer system 600 displays the lens customization user interface 806. The user interface 806 includes a sample display area 808, a zoom option control 822, and a use 1x zoom control 824a. The sample display area 808 includes zoom controls 622 (e.g., 0.5x zoom control 622a, 1x zoom control 622b, 2x zoom control 622c, and 3x zoom control 622d) that are overlaid on a sample image 830 that includes a 35MM zoom indicator 808a, a 28MM zoom indicator 808b, and a 24MM zoom indicator 808c. The portion of the sample image 830 within the 35MM zoom indicator 808a provides an indication of the media that the computer system 600 generates (e.g., in response to a request to capture media) when it is configured to capture media at the 35MM zoom level. The portion of sample image 830 within 28MM zoom indicator 808b provides an indication of the media generated by computer system 600 when configured to capture media at a 28MM zoom level. The portion of sample image 830 within 24MM zoom indicator 808c provides an indication of the media generated by computer system 600 when configured to capture media at a 24MM zoom level. FIG. 8A to FIG. 8X As discussed above, the 1x zoom level (e.g., shown by the 1x zoom control 622b) is the same zoom level as the 24MM zoom level, which is the native zoom level of the second camera (e.g., a camera with a 24MM lens). The zoom option controls 822 include a no option control 822a, a 28MM option control 822b, and a 35MM option control 822c. Figure 8C , the no option control 822a is selected (e.g., bolded). Since the no option control 822a is selected, the computer system displays the 1x zoom control 622b. It should be understood that the computer system 600 displays the group of zoom controls on the lens customization user interface 806 based on the state of the current settings on the lens customization user interface 806 (e.g., the state of the corresponding option control and / or the state of the corresponding group of default controls as selected or unselected). Therefore, if the user accepts Figure 8C The current settings in the computer system 600 are displayed Fig. 8A The specific set of zoom controls (e.g., Figure 8C 622). It is worth noting that Figure 8C The zoom control 622 matches Fig. 8A The zoom control 622 is configured based on Figure 8C The current settings of the lens customization user interface 806 presented in FIG. Fig. 8A The zoom control 622. Figure 8CAt 850c1, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850c1 on the 1x zoom control 622b, a tap input 850c2 on the 28MM option control 822b, and a tap input 850c3 on the use 1x zoom control 824a. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the tap input 850c1 on the 1x zoom control 622b, the computer system 600 does not stop displaying the 1x zoom control 622b and / or replaces the 1x zoom control 622b with another zoom control. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the tap input 850c3 on the use 1x zoom control 824a, the computer system 600 is configured to display the 1x zoom control 622b when there is no customized zoom control (e.g., 28MM and / or 35MM) and with the 1x zoom control 622b as the default zoom control (e.g., when initially displayed). Fig. 8A The camera UI is displayed when capturing media with the zoom control selected.
[0243] like Fig.8D As illustrated, in response to detecting a tap input 850c2 on the 28MM option control 822b, the computer system 600 replaces the 1x zoom control 622b with the 28MM zoom control 622e. In response to detecting the tap input 850c2, the computer system 600 also updates the sample image 830 so that the sample image 830 is displayed in 28MM (and in some embodiments, the 35MM zoom indicator 808a, the 28MM zoom indicator 808b, and the 24MM zoom indicator 808c are removed or not displayed). Fig.8D As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 850c2, the computer system 600 replaces the use of the 1x zoom control 824a with the use of the 28MM zoom control 824b and displays the 28MM zoom set as default control 826a. In response to detecting the input on the 28MM zoom control 824b, the computer system 600 is configured to allow the 28MM zoom control 622e to be selected from the zoom controls 622 (or displayed with other zoom controls, such as the 0.5x zoom control 622a, the 2x zoom control 622b, and the 3x zoom control 622d, as shown in FIG. Fig.8D In response to detecting an input on control 826a to set the 28 MM zoom as the default, the computer system 600 is configured to display the 28 MM zoom control 622e as the default control in place of Fig. 8E 1x zoom control 622b or 24MM zoom control 622f (e.g., as described below with respect to Figure 8J discussed). Fig.8D At 850, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850d on the 28MM zoom control 622e.
[0244] like Fig. 8EAs illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 850d, the computer system 600 optionally replaces the 28MM zoom control 622e with the 24MM zoom control 622f. FIG. 8A to FIG. 8X For the purposes of this tutorial, the 1x and 24MM zoom levels are equivalent zoom levels. Fig. 8E , because the 28MM option control 822b is selected, the computer system displays the 24MM zoom control 622f. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the 24MM zoom control 622f instead of Figure 8C 1x zoom control 622b, because the transition from the 28MM zoom control 622e to the 24MM zoom control 622f provides the same Figure 8C The 1x zoom control 622a provides a less confusing user experience than that of the 1x zoom control 622a (e.g., using zoom levels with the same unit of measurement).
[0245] like Fig. 8E As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 850d, the computer system 600 updates the sample image 830 so that the sample image 830 is displayed at the 24MM (or 1x) zoom level. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 detects the tap input on the 24MM zoom control 622f, and in response, the computer system 600 redisplays the sample image 830. Fig.8D The user interface 806 of FIG. 806 (e.g., replacing the 24MM zoom control 622f with the 28MM zoom control 622e). FIG. 8D to FIG. 8E At 806, user interface 806 provides the user with the option of viewing how interactions with various zoom controls will function in the camera user interface. Thus, it should be understood that when computer system 600 detects input directed to 24MM zoom control 622f or 28MM zoom control 622e (or any other zoom control) on user interface 806, computer system 600 performs the same operations as would be performed if computer system 600 detected input directed to 24MM zoom control 622f or 28MM zoom control 622e (or any other zoom control) on the camera user interface (e.g., as described above with respect to Fig. 8A One or more operations of the same (or similar) operation as discussed above. Fig. 8E At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850e1 on the 35MM option control 822c.
[0246] like Fig.8F As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 850e1, the computer system 600 replaces the 24MM zoom control 622f with the 35MM zoom control 622g. In response to detecting the tap input 850e1, the computer system 600 also updates the sample image 830 so that the sample image 830 is displayed at the 35MM zoom level. Fig.8F As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 850e1, the computer system 600 replaces the use of the 28MM zoom control 824b with the use of the 35MM zoom control 824c, and displays the 35MM zoom set as default control 826b. In response to detecting the input on the use of the 35MM zoom control 824c, the computer system 600 is configured to allow the 35MM zoom control 622g to be selected from the zoom controls 622 (or displayed with other zoom controls, such as the 0.5x zoom control 622a, the 2x zoom control 622b, and the 3x zoom control 622d, as shown in FIG. Fig.8F In response to detecting an input on control 826b that sets the 35MM zoom as the default, the computer system 600 is configured to display the 35MM zoom control 622g as the default control in place of the 1x zoom control 622b or the 24MM zoom control 622f. Fig.8F At 850f1, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850f1 on the 35MM zoom control 622g, detects a tap input 850f2 on the set 35MM zoom as default control 826b, or detects a tap input 850f3 on the use 35MM zoom control 824c. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the tap input 850f1 on the 35MM zoom control 622g, the computer system 600 displays a Fig. 8E A user interface similar to user interface 806 (e.g., using the above description of Fig. 8E One or more of the techniques discussed, replacing the 35MM zoom control 622g with the 24MM zoom control 622e).
[0247] like Figure 8G As illustrated, in response to detecting a tap input 850f2 on the 35MM zoom as default control 826b, the computer system 600 transitions the 35MM zoom as default control 826b from an off state to an on state. Figure 8G The computer system 600 displays the status of the settings on the user interface 806. Figure 8I 's camera user interface (eg, when the camera user interface is initially displayed when the setting of user interface 806 is in a corresponding state).
[0248] review Figure 8C , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850c3 on the 1x zoom control 824a. Figure 8H As illustrated, after detecting tap input 850c3 on 1x zoom control 824a, computer system 600 displays 1x zoom control 622b (eg, when the camera user interface is initially displayed after detecting tap input 850c). Figure 8H Because in Figure 8CIf the no option control 822a is selected, the computer system 600 displays the 1x zoom control 622b. Therefore, the computer system 600 displays the 1x zoom control 622b by default. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input on the 1x zoom control 622b, the computer system 600 does not display (e.g., FIG. 8C to FIG. 8G ) 24MM zoom control 622f, 28MM zoom control 622e and 35MM zoom control 622g (for example, because Figure 8C The No Option control 822a is selected.
[0249] review Fig.8F , the computer system 800 detects a tap input 850f3 on the 35MM zoom control 824c. Figure 8J As illustrated, after detecting tap input 850f3, computer system 600 displays 24MM zoom control 622f (e.g., when the camera user interface is initially displayed after detecting tap input 850c). Figure 8J At 610, the computer system 600 displays the 24MM zoom control 622f because the setting (e.g., Fig.8F 826b) is in a closed state (e.g., the computer system 600 is not configured to provide the 35MM zoom control 622g as the default zoom). In some embodiments, in response to detecting Figure 8J Input on the 24MM zoom control 622f at the computer system 600 displays Figure 8I In some embodiments, the computer system 600 detects that the 24MM zoom control 622f is replaced with the 35MM zoom control 622g. Fig.8D 850c, and in response, the computer system 600 displays a camera user interface including a 24 MM zoom control 622f (e.g., when the camera user interface is initially displayed after the tap input 850c is detected) because the setting (e.g., Fig.8D 826a) is in the closed state.
[0250] review Figure 8G , the computer system 600 detects the tap input 850g on the 35MM zoom control 824c. Figure 8I As illustrated, after detecting tap input 850g, computer system 600 displays 35MM zoom control 622g (e.g., when the camera user interface is initially displayed after detecting tap input 850c). Figure 8IAt 850g, the computer system 600 displays the 35MM zoom control 622g because when the tap input 850g was detected, the setting (e.g., 826b) for determining whether the non-native FOV is set to the default FOV (e.g., set to 28MM or 35MM) is turned on (e.g., the computer system 600 is configured to provide the 35MM zoom control 622g as the default zoom). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 detects that the setting (e.g., 826a) for determining whether the non-native FOV is set to the default FOV (e.g., set to 28MM or 35MM) is turned on. Fig. 8E The computer system 600 uses a tap input 850e2 on the 28MM control 824b, and in response, displays a camera user interface including the 28MM zoom control 622e (e.g., when the camera user interface is initially displayed after the tap input 850e2 is detected), as shown in FIG. Figure 8L exemplified.
[0251] Back to Figure 8I , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850i1 on the 35MM zoom control 622g and detects a tap input 850i2 on the shutter control 610. Figure 8J As illustrated, in response to detecting a tap input 850i1 on the 35MM zoom control 622g, the computer system 600 replaces the 35MM zoom control 622g with the 24MM zoom control 622f. Figure 8J As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 850i1, the computer system 600 updates the live preview 630 so that the live preview 630 represents the FOV at the 24MM zoom level (eg, the 1x zoom level). FIG. 8I to FIG. 8J , the computer system 600 has shrunk Figure 8I Live preview of 630, because Figure 8J The 24MM zoom level is lower than Figure 8I 35MM zoom level. Figure 8J In response to detecting a tap input 850i2 on the shutter control 610 (e.g., Figure 8I ), the computer system 600 captures the media at the 35MM zoom level and updates the media collection 612 with a representation of the captured media (e.g., this will be described below with respect to Figure 8W to Figure 8X for further discussion). Figure 8J At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850j1 on the 24MM zoom control 622f and detects a tap input 850j2 on the shutter control 610.
[0252] like Figure 8KAs illustrated, in response to detecting a tap input 850j1 on the 24MM zoom control 622f, the computer system 600 replaces the 24MM zoom control 622f with the 35MM zoom control 622g. In response to detecting the tap input 850j1, the computer system 600 updates the live preview 630 so that the live preview 630 represents the FOV at the 35MM zoom level. Figure 8K In response to detecting a tap input 850j2 on the shutter control 610 (e.g., Figure 8J ), the computer system 600 captures media at the 24MM zoom level and updates the media collection 612 with a representation of the captured media. In some embodiments, at the 28MM zoom level (and Figure 8L When the live preview 630 is displayed using the 28MM zoom control 622e), the computer system 600 detects input directed to the shutter control and, in response, captures media at the 28MM zoom level and updates the media collection 612 with a representation of the captured media.
[0253] Figures 8K to 8N An exemplary embodiment is illustrated regarding displaying one or more other zoom options along with the zoom level corresponding to zoom control 622 . Figure 8K and Figure 8M An exemplary embodiment is illustrated in which the computer system 600 detects a request to display one or more other zoom levels while displaying the 35MM zoom control 622g. Figure 8L and Figure 8N An exemplary embodiment is illustrated in which the computer system 600 detects a request to display one or more other zoom levels while displaying the 28MM zoom control 622e. Figure 8K At , the computer system 600 detects a first portion of a drag input 850k on the 35MM zoom control 622g. In some embodiments, the drag input 850k is optionally in an upward, rightward, and / or leftward direction.
[0254] like Figure 8M As illustrated, in response to detecting the first portion of drag input 850k, computer system 600 displays zoom control 840 and stops displaying zoom control 622. Zoom control 840 is a control in which a user can select Figure 8K The zoom control 622 represents and is not Figure 8K The zoom control 622 represents a control for multiple zoom options (e.g., a zoom wheel, a zoom slider, or other zoom controls). Figure 8M840a, 1x zoom indication 840b, and 3x zoom indication 840c are displayed at locations corresponding to their respective zoom levels. The zoom control 840 also includes a selection indicator 842, which is displayed on the zoom control 840 at the 35MM zoom level because the drag input 850k was initially detected on the 35MM zoom control 622g. In some embodiments, when the computer system 600 initially displays the zoom control 840, the computer system 600 displays the indicator 842 at a location corresponding to the zoom control where the drag input was initially detected.
[0255] Computer system 600 also displays an indicator 844 (eg, a dot) as part of zoom control 840. Figure 8M As illustrated, the indicator 844 is displayed at a location corresponding to the 35MM zoom level. The computer system 600 displays the indicator 844 at a location corresponding to the 35MM zoom level because the computer system 600 is set to use the 35MM zoom level (e.g., in response to the Figure 8G Input 850g is detected at 850g). In some embodiments, when the computer system 600 is not set to use the 35MM zoom level, the computer system 600 does not display the indication 844 at a location corresponding to the 35MM zoom level. Therefore, in some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays a zoom control 840 with an indication of the native zoom level (e.g., 840a-840c) and the digital zoom level (e.g., indication 844). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 displays the indication 844 (e.g., a dot) with a different visual appearance from the 0.5x zoom indication 840a, the 1x zoom indication 840b, and the 3x zoom indication 840c (e.g., with text) to save display space on the zoom control 840 (e.g., or due to display space constraints).
[0256] review Figure 8L , the computer system 600 detects the first portion of the drag input 8501 on the 28MM zoom control 622e. Figure 8N As illustrated, in response to detecting the first portion of drag input 850k , computer system 600 displays zoom control 840 . Figure 8N The zoom control 840 is different from Figure 8M The zoom control 840, because the indication 844 is displayed with Figure 8N The computer system 600 displays the indicator 844 at a position corresponding to the 28 MM zoom level, rather than at a position corresponding to the 35 MM zoom level. The computer system 600 displays the indicator 844 at a position corresponding to the 28 MM zoom level because the computer system 600 is set to use the 28 MM zoom level (e.g., in response to detecting that the pointing Fig. 8EUse the tap input of the 28MM zoom control 824b).
[0257] review Figure 8M , the computer system 600 detects the second portion (e.g., the right portion) of the drag input 850k. Fig.8O As illustrated, the computer system 600 moves the zoom control 840 to the right so that the display of the selection indicator 842 is at a position corresponding to the 0.9x zoom level (e.g., when the second portion of the drag input 850k is detected) and is no longer at a position corresponding to the 35MM zoom level. While moving the selection indicator 842, the computer system 600 updates (e.g., zooms) the live preview 630 based on the position of the selection indicator 842 on the zoom control 840. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a third portion of the input in the opposite direction, the computer system 600 moves the zoom control 840 to the left (e.g., to select a higher zoom level and / or a zoom level greater than 0.9x). Fig.8O At 850k, computer system 600 detects the end of drag input 850k.
[0258] like Figure 8P As illustrated, computer system 600 stops displaying zoom control 840 and displays zoom control 622 having a zoom control (e.g., 0.9x zoom control 622h) corresponding to the selected zoom level (e.g., 0.9x). 0.9x zoom control 622h replaces one of zoom controls 622 (e.g., 0.9x zoom control 622h) that was displayed before drag input 850k was detected. Figure 8K 0.5x zoom control 622a). Figure 8P At 800, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 850p on the 0.9x zoom control 622h. Figure 8Q As illustrated, in response to detecting tap input 850p, computer system 600 displays 0.5x zoom control 622a as selected and updates live preview 630 so that live preview 630 is displayed at a 0.5x zoom level. In response to detecting tap input 850p, computer system 600 replaces 0.9x zoom control 622h with 0.5x zoom control 622a because 0.9x zoom control 622h is no longer used and is not the initial zoom control. Figure 8Q At , the computer system 600 detects a left swipe input 850q on the live preview 630 .
[0259] like Figure 8R As illustrated, in response to detecting swipe input 850q, computer system 600 moves camera mode 620 to the right and displays portrait mode control 620d as selected. Figure 8RIn response to detecting swipe input 850q, computer system 600 is configured to be in portrait camera mode. In response to detecting swipe input 850q, computer system 600 displays 2x zoom control 622c (e.g., digital zoom control) and stops displaying Figure 8Q In response to detecting swipe input 850q, computer system 600 displays lighting effect controls 862 to the right of 2x zoom controls 622c in camera display area 604 (these lighting effect controls, when individually activated, enable changing the lighting effects applied to the captured media). In addition to lighting effect controls 862, computer system 600 also displays a light effect indicator ("Natural Light") that indicates the lighting effect that will be applied to the captured media. Figure 8R At 800, the computer system 600 detects a right swipe input 850r on the 2x zoom control 622c. Figure 8S As illustrated, in response to detecting the right swipe input 850r, the computer system 600 expands the 2x zoom control 622c to display the 1x zoom control 622b and the 3x zoom control 622d. In some embodiments, the computer system 600 does not display the 1x zoom control 622b and the 3x zoom control 622d after expanding the 2x zoom control 622c. Fig. 8A In some embodiments, in response to detecting input on the 1x zoom control 622b, the computer system 600 displays the 1x zoom control as selected. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input on the 3x zoom control 622d, the computer system 600 displays the 3x zoom control as selected. Figure 8S At 850 s, the computer system 600 detects a left swipe input 850 s on the zoom control 622 .
[0260] like Figure 8T As illustrated, in response to detecting a left swipe input 850s, the computer system 600 Figure 8S Remove the unselected zoom controls (e.g., 1x zoom control 622b and 3x zoom control 622d) and continue to display the Figure 8S In response to detecting the left swipe input 850s, the computer system 600 redisplays the lighting effect controls 862. Figure 8T At , the computer system 600 detects that a low light criterion is met (e.g., as described above with respect to Fig. 6F As described). Figure 8U As illustrated, in response to detecting that the low light criteria are met, the computer system 600 replaces the 2x zoom control 622c with a 3x zoom control 622d (or in other embodiments, a 1x zoom control 622b). Figure 8U At 3x zoom control 622d, 3x zoom control 622d includes an indication (e.g., a half-moon) that computer system 600 may be configured to operate in low light mode. Figure 8U At , the computer system 600 detects a right swipe input 850u1 on the live preview 630 and / or a tap input 850u2 on the 3x zoom control 622d. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the right swipe input 850u1, the computer system 600 redisplays the live preview 630 with the zoom control 622d. Figure 8Q User interface. Figure 8V As illustrated, in response to detecting input 850u2, computer system 600 displays low light mode control 874 (eg, for setting a capture duration for low light mode).
[0261] review Figure 8I , the computer system 600 detects input 850i1 on the shutter control 610 and, in response, captures a representation at the 35MM zoom level Figure 8I Live preview of 630 media. Go to Figure 8J , the computer system 600 detects input 850j on the shutter control 610, and in response, captures a representation at a 24MM zoom level (e.g., the 1x zoom level and the native zoom level discussed above). Figure 8J Live preview of 630 media. Figure 8W Includes representation 896, which is in Figure 8I A representation of media captured at the 35MM zoom level. Figure 8X Included is representation 898, which is a representation of media captured at the 24MM zoom level. Notably, in Figure 8W to Figure 8X , the resolution of media representation 896 (e.g., indicated by 890) is the same (or similar) as the resolution of media representation 898 (e.g., indicated by 892). Thus, computer system 600 generates media with the same or similar resolution using a digital zoom level (e.g., a 35MM zoom level) as the resolution generated by computer system 600 using a native zoom level (e.g., a 1x zoom level or a 24MM zoom level). In some embodiments, computer system 600 generates digital zoom levels with the same or similar resolution as the resolution generated by computer system 600 using a native zoom level by de-binning pixels of media captured at the native zoom level.
[0262] Fig. 9900 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing zoom controls for capturing media using a computer system according to some embodiments. Method 900 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, and 600) (e.g., a smart watch, a wearable electronic device, a smart phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, or a head-mounted device (e.g., a head-mounted augmented reality and / or extended reality device)) having a plurality of cameras (e.g., one or more cameras (e.g., dual cameras, triple cameras, quad cameras, etc.) (e.g., as described above with respect to method 700)) including a first fixed focal length (e.g., fixed focus lens) camera and a second fixed focal length camera (e.g., as described above with respect to method 700) (e.g., as described above with respect to method 700) FIG. 8A to FIG. 8C In some embodiments, the computer system includes and / or communicates with one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface and / or a first camera of one or more cameras (e.g., one or more cameras on the same side or different sides of the computer system (e.g., dual cameras, triple cameras, quad cameras and / or other camera configurations) (e.g., front cameras, rear cameras)). In some embodiments, the computer system includes and / or includes one or more output devices (e.g., speakers, display generation components, and / or tactile output devices).
[0263] Some operations in method 900 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.
[0264] As described below, method 900 provides an intuitive way to manage zoom controls for captured media. The method reduces the cognitive burden of a user managing zoom controls for captured media, thereby creating a more efficient human-computer interface. For battery-powered computing devices, enabling a user to more quickly and efficiently manage zoom controls for captured media saves power and increases the time interval between battery charges.
[0265] When the computer system (e.g., 600) is not operating a first camera mode (e.g., a mode in which the computer system operates when one of 620a-620e is selected) (e.g., a media capture mode (e.g., photo, video, movie video, panorama, portrait, slow motion, or time lapse)), the computer system (e.g., 600) detects (902) a request (e.g., 850a1) to transition the computer system to operate in the first camera mode.
[0266] In response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode (e.g., 850a1), the computer system (e.g., 600) displays (904) via a display generation component a camera user interface including multiple selectable controls (e.g., 622) for managing a zoom level for capturing media, wherein the multiple selectable controls include (in some embodiments, multiple second controls are not displayed when the transition request is detected) a first selectable control (906) (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d) that, when selected, configures the computer system (e.g., 600) to capture media using a first native zoom level (e.g., 0.1 to 10x zoom) of a first fixed focus camera (e.g., a zoom level at which a fixed focus camera is capable of capturing media without additional digital processing to change the zoom level of the captured image).
[0267] In response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode (e.g., 850a1), the computer system (e.g., 600) displays (904) via a display generation component a camera user interface including a plurality of selectable controls (e.g., 622) for managing a zoom level for capturing media, wherein the plurality of selectable controls include a second selectable control (908) (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d) that, when selected, configures the computer system to capture media using a second native zoom level (e.g., 0.1 to 10x zoom) of a second fixed focus camera, wherein the second native zoom level is different from the first native zoom level (e.g., a zoom level at which the fixed focus camera is capable of capturing media without additional digital processing to change the zoom level of the captured image).
[0268] In response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode (e.g., 850a1), the computer system (e.g., 600) displays (904) via a display generation component a camera user interface including a plurality of selectable controls (e.g., 622) for managing a zoom level for capturing media, wherein the plurality of selectable controls include a third selectable control (910) (e.g., 622c, 622e, and / or 622g) (e.g., at least one) that, when selected, causes the computer system to be configured to capture media using at least one camera of the plurality of cameras (e.g., a first fixed focus camera, a second fixed focus camera, another fixed focus camera, or any combination thereof) at a digital zoom level (e.g., 0.1 to 10x zoom) (e.g., a zoom level at which the fixed focus camera is capable of capturing media with additional digital processing to change the zoom level of the captured image). In some embodiments, the digital zoom level is different from the first native zoom level and the second native zoom level. In some embodiments, a computer system displays a camera user interface via a display device, the camera user interface including a first representation of at least a portion of a field of view of one or more cameras displayed at a first native zoom level, a second native zoom level, and / or a digital zoom level. In some embodiments, the first fixed focus camera has a field of view of a different size than the second fixed focus camera. Displaying a plurality of controls including a first optional control, a second optional control, and a third optional control in response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode provides the user with more control over the user interface to select between native zoom levels and digital zoom levels, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface and reducing the number of inputs required to perform operations.
[0269] In some embodiments, detecting a request to transition the computer system to the first camera mode includes: when the computer system is not operating in the first mode, detecting a request directed to a non-camera user interface (e.g., Figure 6J and / or the above text about FIG. 8H to FIG. 8LIn some embodiments, the non-camera user interface is displayed before the camera user interface is displayed. Displaying a plurality of controls including a first selectable control, a second selectable control, and a third selectable control in response to detecting an input directed to the non-camera user interface when the computer system is not operating in the first mode and the non-camera user interface is being displayed provides the user with more control over the user interface to select between native zoom levels and digital zoom levels, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface and reducing the number of inputs required to perform operations.
[0270] In some embodiments, detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode includes detecting a first camera user interface (e.g., 622) that is different from (e.g., does not include a plurality of selectable controls for managing a zoom level used to capture media) and that includes a plurality of selectable controls. Figure 8Q to Figure 8R ) (e.g., a camera user interface for a media capture mode other than the first camera mode (e.g., photo, video, movie video, panorama, portrait, slow motion, or time lapse)) (e.g., 850q and / or as described above with respect to Figure 8R The present invention relates to a method of displaying a plurality of selectable controls including a first selectable control, a second selectable control, and a third selectable control in response to detecting an input directed to a first camera user interface that is different from a camera user interface that includes multiple selectable controls. The method provides the user with more control over the user interface to select between a native zoom level and a digital zoom level, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface and reduces the number of inputs required to perform operations.
[0271] In some embodiments, a camera user interface including multiple selectable controls is displayed, and a first input (e.g., 850i2 and / or 850p) directed to the camera user interface including multiple selectable controls (e.g., 622) is detected (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a mouse click, a button press input, an air gesture / input, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the first input directed to the camera user interface including multiple selectable controls: based on determining that the first input is directed to the first selectable control (and based on determining that the computer system is not currently configured to capture media using a first native zoom level (e.g., before detecting the first input directed to the camera user interface)), the computer system (e.g., 600) configures the computer system to capture media using a first native zoom level of a first fixed focus camera (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8J and Figure 8P As discussed above) (and / or maintaining that configuration while the computer system is configured to capture media using a first native zoom level (e.g., before (e.g., immediately before) detecting a first input directed to a camera user interface). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to capture media (e.g., via input directed to a shutter control) while the computer system is configured to capture media using a first native zoom level of a first fixed focus length camera, the computer system captures media using the first native zoom level.
[0272] In some embodiments, in response to detecting a first input directed to a camera user interface that includes a plurality of selectable controls, and based on determining that the first input is directed to a second selectable control (and based on determining that the computer system is not currently configured to capture media using a second native zoom level (e.g., before the first input directed to the camera user interface is detected)), a computer system (e.g., 600) configures the computer system to capture media using a second native zoom level of a second fixed focus camera (e.g., indicated by 622a, 622b, 622d, and / or 622f) (and / or maintains that configuration when the computer system is configured to capture media using the second native zoom level (e.g., before (e.g., immediately before) the first input directed to the camera user interface is detected)) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8J and Figure 8P In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to capture media when the computer system is configured to capture media using a second native zoom level of the second fixed focus camera, the computer system captures the media using the second native zoom level.
[0273] In some embodiments, in response to detecting a first input directed to a camera user interface that includes multiple selectable controls, and based on determining that the first input is directed to a third selectable control (and based on determining that the computer system is not currently configured to capture media using a digital native zoom level (e.g., before detecting the first input directed to the camera user interface)), the computer system is configured to capture media using at least one of the multiple cameras at a digital zoom level (e.g., indicated by 622c, 622e, and / or 622g) (and / or maintain that configuration while the computer system is configured to capture media using a digital zoom level (e.g., before (e.g., immediately before) detecting the first input directed to the camera user interface). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to capture media while the computer system is configured to capture media using a digital zoom level, the computer system captures media using the digital zoom level.
[0274] Configuring a computer system to capture media at a particular zoom level based on the control to which input is directed provides the user with more control over the user interface to select between native and digital zoom levels, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.
[0275] In some embodiments, a camera user interface including multiple optional controls is displayed, and a second input (e.g., 850k and / or 850l) directed to the camera user interface including the multiple optional controls is detected (e.g., a movement input (e.g., a swipe input and / or a drag input, and in some embodiments, a non-swipe and / or non-drag input, such as a click and drag input, a rotation input, a sliding input, and / or an air gesture). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the second input directed to the camera user interface including the multiple optional controls: based on determining that the movement of the second input includes a first movement amount, the computer system is configured to capture media using a first zoom level (e.g., 842) within a range of zoom levels including a first native zoom level (e.g., 840a-840c), a second native zoom level (e.g., 840a-840c), and a digital zoom level (e.g., 844) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 8K to 8O In some embodiments, when the computer system is configured to capture media using a first zoom level within a range of zoom levels that includes the first native zoom level, the computer system captures the media using the first zoom level.
[0276] In some embodiments, in response to detecting a second input directed to a camera user interface that includes a plurality of selectable controls: based on determining that movement of the second input includes a second amount of movement that is different from the first amount of movement, configuring the computer system to capture media using a second zoom level (e.g., 842) within the range of zoom levels. In some embodiments, the second zoom level is different from the first zoom level (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 8K to 8O In some embodiments, the first zoom level and / or the second zoom level are different from the first native zoom level, the second native zoom level, and the digital zoom level. In some embodiments, when the computer system is configured to capture media using a second zoom level within a zoom level range that includes the first native zoom level, the computer system captures the media using the second zoom level. In some embodiments, based on determining that the movement of the second input is along a first direction, the computer system is configured to capture media using a first zoom level within a zoom level range that includes the first native zoom level, the second native zoom level, and the digital zoom level. In some embodiments, based on determining that the movement of the second input is along a second direction different from the first direction, the computer system is configured to capture media using a second zoom level within a zoom level range, wherein the second zoom level is different from the first zoom level and is represented in a zoom level range in a direction different from the first zoom level relative to a representation within a zoom level range closer to the input being detected. Configuring the computer system to capture media at a specific zoom level within the zoom level range in response to detecting a second input directed to a camera user interface that includes a plurality of selectable controls provides the user with more control over the user interface to select between native zoom levels and digital zoom levels, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.
[0277] In some embodiments, while displaying a camera user interface including multiple selectable controls, a computer system (e.g., 600) detects a request to capture media (e.g., 650b2, 650d, 650f, and / or 650g) (e.g., via an input on a shutter control (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the request to capture media (e.g., 650b2, 650d, 650f, and / or 650g): based on determining that the computer system is configured to capture media using a first native zoom level (e.g., indicated by 622b and / or 622f) when the request to capture media is detected: initiating capture of the corresponding media using the first native zoom level. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to capture media (e.g., 650b2, 650d, 650f, and / or 650g): the computer system (e.g., 600) generates visual content corresponding to the corresponding media captured using the first native zoom level. In some embodiments, the visual content corresponding to the corresponding media captured using the first native zoom level has a first resolution (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8W to Figure 8X discussed).
[0278] In some embodiments, while displaying a camera user interface including multiple selectable controls, a computer system (e.g., 600) detects a request to capture media (e.g., 650b2, 650d, 650f, and / or 650g) (e.g., via an input on a shutter control (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the request to capture media (e.g., 650b2, 650d, 650f, and / or 650g): based on determining that the computer system is configured to capture media using a digital zoom level (e.g., indicated by 622e and / or 622g) when the request to capture media is detected: initiating capture of corresponding media using the digital zoom level; and generating visual content corresponding to the corresponding media captured using the digital zoom level. In some embodiments, the visual content corresponding to the corresponding media captured using the digital zoom level has a second resolution that is similar to (e.g., equal to, equivalent to, within a threshold of pixels (e.g., a threshold aspect ratio and / or a threshold number and / or percentage of pixels (e.g., 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, or 99%)) as the first resolution (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8W to Figure 8XGenerating visual content corresponding to corresponding media captured using a digital zoom level and having a resolution similar to the corresponding media generated using the corresponding zoom level in response to detecting a request to capture media allows a computer system to provide media with a similar resolution in response to detecting user input, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface and reduces the number of inputs required to generate media with similar resolution using different zoom levels.
[0279] In some embodiments, generating visual content corresponding to corresponding media captured using a digital zoom level includes expanding (e.g., digitally expanding) (e.g., by anti-binning (e.g., inverting pixel binning) and / or anti-binning to merge and / or warp pixels at a native resolution of at least one of the plurality of cameras) one or more frames captured by at least one of the plurality of cameras (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8W to Figure 8X discussed).
[0280] In some embodiments, while displaying a plurality of selectable controls for managing a zoom level for capturing media (and, in some embodiments, while the computer system is operating in a first camera mode), the computer system (e.g., 600) detects a request (e.g., 850q and / or 850u1) to transition the computer system to operate in a second camera mode that is different from the first camera mode (e.g., a photo, video, cinematic video, panoramic, portrait, slow motion, or time lapse camera mode). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the request (e.g., 850q and / or 850u1) to transition the computer system to operate in the second camera mode, the computer system (e.g., 600) displays, via a display generation component, a second camera user interface that is different from the camera user interface (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8Q to Figure 8RIn some embodiments, the second camera user interface includes a third optional control (e.g., and one or more of the other multiple optional controls). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to operate in the second camera, the computer system transitions from operating in the first camera mode to operating in the second camera mode. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the third optional control while displaying the second camera user interface, the computer system displays one or more of the other multiple optional controls (e.g., the first optional control and / or the second optional control) (and, in some embodiments, stops displaying the third optional control). Displaying a second camera user interface different from the camera user interface including the third optional control in response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to operate in the second camera mode provides feedback to the user that the third optional control is related to the second camera user interface and / or that controls related to the camera user interface are also related to the second camera user interface, which provides improved visual feedback to the user and reduces the number of inputs required to perform operations.
[0281] In some embodiments, the second camera user interface does not include the first optional control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d) and the second optional control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d), and method (900) includes detecting input (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)) directed to the second camera user interface while displaying a second camera user interface (e.g., a portrait camera user interface, as described above with respect to method 700) that includes a third optional control (e.g., 622c) but does not include the first optional control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d) and the second optional control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d). In some embodiments, the second camera user interface does not include the first selectable control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d) and the second selectable control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d), and the method (900) includes, in response to detecting input directed to the second camera user interface (e.g., 850r), displaying the first selectable control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d) and the second selectable control (e.g., 622a, 622b, and / or 622d) simultaneously with the third selectable control (e.g., 622c) via the display generation component. In some embodiments, as part of displaying the first selectable control and the second selectable control simultaneously with the third selectable control via the display generation component, the computer system displays an animation of the third selectable control expanding to display the first selectable control and the second selectable control. Displaying the first and second optional controls simultaneously with the third optional control via a display generating component in response to detecting input directed to a second camera user interface provides a user with control of the computer system to display additional zoom controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0282] In some embodiments, before detecting input directed to the second camera user interface (e.g., 850r), the camera user interface includes one or more filter controls (e.g., 862) displayed simultaneously with the third selectable control (e.g., 622c). In some embodiments, one or more filter controls, when selected, cause the computer system (e.g., 600) to be configured to apply a corresponding filter to the captured media (e.g., the captured media) (e.g., one or more media lighting capture controls (e.g., portrait lighting effect controls (e.g., studio lighting, contour lighting, and / or stage lighting)). In some embodiments, the computer receives user input corresponding to a selection of an affordance for controlling a lighting effect operation, and in response to receiving the user input, the electronic device may change the state of the lighting effect (e.g., the amount of lighting) and / or display a user interface to change the state of the lighting effect operation. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input directed to the second camera user interface, one or more filter controls (e.g., 862) are stopped from being displayed. Stopping displaying one or more corresponding controls in response to detecting input directed to the second camera user interface allows the computer system to save user interface real estate when displaying additional zoom controls.
[0283] In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode and based on determining that the first camera mode is a first type of camera mode (e.g., as indicated by 622a-620e being selected) (e.g., a portrait camera / capture mode), a third selectable control (e.g., 622) is displayed as selected (e.g., initially selected (e.g., as a default control for the first type of camera mode)) (and the computer system is configured to capture media using a digital zoom level). In some embodiments, the third selectable control is displayed as selected regardless of whether the third selectable control was displayed as selected and / or whether another selectable zoom control (e.g., the first selectable control or the second selectable control) was displayed as selected prior to receiving the request to transition the computer system to the first mode. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode and in accordance with a determination that the first camera mode is a second type of camera mode different from the first type of mode (e.g., as indicated by 622a-620e being selected) (e.g., a photo camera / capture mode (e.g., still photo) and / or a panoramic camera / capture mode), a third selectable control (e.g., 622) is not displayed as selected (e.g., not initially selected (e.g., as a default control)) (and the computer system is not a computer system that captures media using digital zoom levels). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode and in accordance with a determination that the first camera mode is a second type of camera mode, the computer system displays another selectable control (e.g., a zoom control) as selected and / or displayed as a default control for the second type of camera mode. In response to detecting a request to transition the computer system to a first camera mode and in accordance with a determination that the first camera mode is a first type of camera mode, displaying the third selectable control as selected allows the computer system to automatically display the third selectable control as the default control, which performs an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0284] In some embodiments, when multiple selectable control options (e.g., 622) are included in the camera user interface, the multiple selectable control options (e.g., a first selectable control, a second selectable control, and a third selectable control option) are the only selectable control options that can be selected to affect the zoom level to which the computer system (e.g., 600) can be configured. In some embodiments, the third selectable control is included in a set of discrete selectable zoom controls corresponding to a corresponding camera mode (e.g., a portrait camera mode). In some embodiments, the set of discrete selectable zoom controls corresponding to the corresponding camera mode represents one or more discrete zoom levels that are the only zoom levels corresponding to the corresponding camera mode. In some embodiments, the corresponding camera mode is a first camera mode. In some embodiments, the corresponding camera mode is different from the first camera mode.
[0285] In some embodiments, when the third selectable control (e.g., 6cc) is displayed as selected and when the computer system is configured to capture media at a digital zoom level using at least one camera of the plurality of cameras, the computer system (e.g., 600) detects a set of conditions (e.g., as described above with respect to transitioning from a first capture mode to a second capture mode) for the computer system to detect a set of conditions (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8T to Figure 8V ). In some embodiments, the first capture mode is not a low-light capture mode (e.g., as described above with respect to method 700) and the third capture mode is a low-light capture mode. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the set of conditions for transitioning from the first capture mode to the second capture mode, the computer system (e.g., 600) configures the computer system to capture media using a first native zoom level (e.g., 622b and / or 622d) or a second native zoom level (e.g., 622b and / or 622d) (and, in some embodiments, displays an optional control corresponding to a zoom level other than a digital zoom level as selected). Configuring the computer system to capture media using a zoom level other than a digital zoom in response to detecting the set of conditions for transitioning from the first capture mode to the second capture mode allows the computer system to automatically select a zoom level that is more relevant (and / or preferred) to the second capture mode.
[0286] In some embodiments, the set of conditions for transitioning from the first capture mode to the second capture mode includes detecting an input (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)) pointing to a control that, when selected, causes the computer system to transition to (or out of) the second capture mode (and / or enter or exit the second capture mode) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8T to Figure 8V Configuring the computer system to capture media using a zoom level other than digital zoom in response to detecting input pointing to a control that, when selected, causes the computer system to transition to the second capture mode gives the user control of the user interface to transition the computer system to the second capture mode, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0287] In some embodiments, the set of conditions for transitioning from the first capture mode to the second capture mode includes determining that the ambient light in the field of view of at least one camera of the plurality of cameras is below a threshold value (e.g., 0 to 20 lux) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8T to Figure 8VConfiguring the computer system to capture media using a zoom level other than digital zoom based on determining that ambient light in a field of view of at least one of the plurality of cameras is below a threshold allows the computer system to automatically select a zoom level that is more relevant (and / or preferred) to the second capture mode.
[0288] Note that the above description is relative to method 900 (eg, Fig. 9 ) also apply in a similar manner to the methods described herein. For example, method 900 optionally includes one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described herein with reference to method 700. For example, a computer system can use the techniques described with respect to method 700 to capture media with a resolution at a selected zoom level set using one or more techniques described with respect to method 900. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated below.
[0289] Fig.10 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing predefined zoom levels for capturing media using a computer system according to some embodiments. Method 1000 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, and / or 600) (e.g., a smart watch, a wearable electronic device, a smart phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, or a head-mounted device (e.g., a head-mounted augmented reality and / or extended reality device)), the computer system having one or more cameras (e.g., one or more cameras on the same side or different sides of the electronic device (e.g., dual cameras, triple cameras, quad cameras, etc.) (e.g., front cameras and / or rear cameras)) (e.g., one or more 12MP to 48MP cameras) (e.g., one or more 13MM, 24MM, 28MM, 32MM, 38MM, and / or 77MM focal length cameras) (e.g., one or more fixed focal length cameras, as described above with respect to method 700), wherein the computer system communicates with (and / or includes) a display generation component (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, and / or a head-mounted display system). In some embodiments, the computer system includes and / or communicates with one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface and / or a first camera of one or more cameras (e.g., one or more cameras on the same side or different sides of the computer system (e.g., dual cameras, triple cameras, quad cameras, etc.) (e.g., front camera, rear camera))). In some embodiments, the computer system includes and / or includes one or more output devices (e.g., speakers, display generation components, and / or tactile output devices). Some operations in method 1000 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.
[0290] As described below, method 1000 provides an intuitive way to manage predefined zoom levels for captured media. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to manage predefined zoom levels for captured media, thereby creating a more efficient human-computer interface. For battery-powered computing devices, enabling a user to more quickly and efficiently manage predefined zoom levels for captured media saves power and increases the time interval between battery charges.
[0291] A computer system (e.g., 600) displays (1002) via a display generation component a camera user interface that includes one or more optional controls (e.g., 622) for managing a zoom level for capturing media (and, in some embodiments, the computer system is configured to capture media based on a user-configured default (or user-selected default) value (e.g., a value indicating a zoom level) for one or more cameras (e.g., 0.1 to 10x zoom), wherein the one or more optional controls include corresponding optional controls (e.g., 622b and / or 622e-622g) corresponding to predefined zoom levels for a camera in the one or more cameras.
[0292] While displaying a camera user interface, a computer system (e.g., 600) detects (1004) a selection input (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2) (e.g., a tap input, a long press input, a click input, or other selection input) directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 622b and / or 622e-622g) (and in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)).
[0293] In response to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2), the computer system (e.g., 600) selects (1006) a predefined zoom level as a current zoom level of the camera, including: in response to detecting (e.g., directly in response to detecting) a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control, selecting (1008) the first zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8LIn response to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2), the computer system (e.g., 600) selects (1006) a predefined zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera, including: in response to detecting (e.g., directly in response to detecting) a selection input directed to the corresponding selectable control, selecting (1010) the second zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L Selecting a predefined zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera in response to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control provides the user with control of the computer system to set the predefined zoom level at which the computer system is configured to capture media, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0294] In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) is configured to capture media using a first field of view of a first camera (e.g., the camera) of the one or more cameras before detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., as described above with respect to Fig. 8A In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2): based on determining that the user has selected the first zoom level as the predefined zoom level, the computer system (e.g., 600) configures the computer system to capture media using the second field of view of the first camera (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2): based on determining that the user has selected the second zoom level as the predefined zoom level, the computer system (e.g., 600) configures the computer system to capture media using the third field of view of the first camera (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L In some embodiments, the third field of view is different from the first field of view and the second field of view. In some embodiments, the first field of view is wider and / or narrower than the second field of view and / or the third field of view. In some embodiments, the second field of view is wider and / or narrower than the third field of view. Configuring the computer system to capture media using different fields of view of the camera based on a predefined zoom level allows the computer system to automatically switch to using different fields of view based on the selected predefined zoom level, which performs the operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0295] In some embodiments, the camera user interface includes a representation (e.g., 630) of the field of view of a second camera in the one or more cameras (e.g., the camera and / or at least one camera in the one or more cameras) displayed at a third zoom level before detecting the selection input directed to the corresponding selectable control (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2): based on determining that the user has selected the first zoom level as the predefined zoom level, displaying a representation (e.g., a live preview (e.g., a live feed of captureable media)) of the field of view of the second camera (e.g., an open observable area visible to the camera, a horizontal (or vertical or diagonal) length of an image at a given distance from the camera lens) at the first zoom level via the display generation component. In some embodiments, the first zoom level is different from the third zoom level (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L In some embodiments, based on determining that the user has selected the first zoom level as the predefined zoom level, the computer system changes the representation from the third zoom level to the first zoom level. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2): based on determining that the user has selected the second zoom value as the predefined zoom level, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, a representation of the field of view of the second camera at the second zoom level. In some embodiments, the second zoom level is different from the third zoom level (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L In some embodiments, based on determining that the user has selected the first zoom level as the predefined zoom level, the computer system changes the representation from the third zoom level to the second zoom level. The representation of the field of view of the display computer system automatically changes the representation of the field of view based on the selected predefined zoom level and provides feedback to the user about the change in zoom level, which performs operations without further user input when a set of conditions have been met and provides improved visual feedback.
[0296] In some embodiments, the plurality of selectable controls (e.g., 622) include a first selectable control (e.g., 622a, 622c, and / or 622d) (e.g., or more selectable controls) corresponding to a zoom level that has not been preselected by one or more users (and / or is not a predefined zoom level). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input directed to the first selectable control (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input), the computer system selects a zoom level that has not been preselected by one or more users as the current zoom level of the camera. In some embodiments, the first selectable control is different from the corresponding selectable control. In some embodiments, the zoom level of the first control cannot be adjusted. Displaying the plurality of selectable controls including the first selectable control corresponding to a zoom level that has not been preselected by one or more users provides the user with control of the computer system to change the zoom level to a zoom level that has not been preselected by one or more users, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0297] In some embodiments, the plurality of selectable controls includes a second selectable control (e.g., or more selectable controls) corresponding to a native zoom level (e.g., as described above with respect to method 700) of a camera (e.g., the camera is a fixed focus lens and / or a fixed focal length camera). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input directed to the second selectable control (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)), the computer system selects the native zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera. Displaying the plurality of selectable controls including a second selectable control corresponding to the native zoom level of the camera provides the user with control of the computer system to change the zoom level to the native zoom level, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0298] In some embodiments, the plurality of selectable controls (e.g., 622) includes a third selectable control (e.g., 622c, 622e, and / or 622g) (e.g., or more selectable controls) corresponding to a digital zoom level (e.g., as described above with respect to method 700). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input directed to the third selectable control (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)), the computer system selects the digital zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera. Displaying the plurality of selectable controls including the third selectable control corresponding to the digital zoom level of the camera provides the user with control of the computer system to change the zoom level to the digital zoom level, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0299] In some embodiments, the corresponding selectable control (e.g., 622) is displayed together with an indication of the current setting corresponding to the predefined zoom level (e.g., 622c and / or 622e-622g). In some embodiments, based on determining that the user has selected the first zoom level as the predefined zoom level, the indication of the current setting corresponding to the predefined zoom level (e.g., 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 3x, 24mm, 28mm and / or 35mm) includes the first zoom level (and does not include the second zoom level). In some embodiments, based on determining that the user has selected the first zoom level as the predefined zoom level, the indication of the current setting corresponding to the predefined zoom level (e.g., 622c and / or 622e-622g) (e.g., 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 3x, 24mm, 28mm and / or 35mm) includes the second zoom level (and does not include the first zoom level). In some embodiments, the first zoom level includes characters and / or measurements (e.g., x vs. mm) that are not included in the second zoom level, or vice versa. Displaying different indications of current settings corresponding to predefined zoom levels including different zoom levels when specified conditions are met provides visual feedback about the zoom level corresponding to the predefined zoom level, which provides improved visual feedback to the user.
[0300] In some embodiments, the corresponding optional control (e.g., 622c and / or 622e-622g) is displayed with a first appearance (e.g., indicating a native zoom level of the camera (e.g., different from a predefined zoom level)) before detecting a selection input directed to the corresponding optional control. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection input directed to the corresponding optional control (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2), the appearance of the corresponding optional control (e.g., 622c and / or 622e-622g) is changed so that the corresponding optional control is displayed with a second appearance different from the first appearance (e.g., indicating a predefined zoom level of the camera (e.g., different from the native zoom level)). In some embodiments, selecting the predefined zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera includes changing the current zoom level of the camera from a previous zoom level to a predefined zoom level. In some embodiments, the previous zoom level is different from the predefined zoom level. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection input directed to the corresponding optional control, the computer system changes the zoom level of the representation of at least the field of view of the camera (e.g., from a previous zoom level to a predefined zoom level). Changing the appearance of the respective selectable control in response to detecting a selection input directed to the respective selectable control provides visual feedback that the respective selectable control has been selected, which provides improved visual feedback to the user.
[0301] In some embodiments, the camera is a fixed focus camera (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8A to FIG. 8J In some embodiments, the camera's native zoom level is selected prior to detecting a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control (e.g., 622c and / or 622e-622g) (e.g., as discussed above with respect to FIG. 8A to FIG. 8JAs discussed) (e.g., 622b and / or 622f) (e.g., a zoom level corresponding to a fixed focal length of the camera) as the current zoom level of the camera. In some embodiments, the native zoom level is different from the predefined zoom level (e.g., 622e and / or 622g). In some embodiments, when selecting the first zoom level (e.g., 622b and / or 622f) (or the second zoom level) (e.g., a predefined zoom level) as the current zoom level of the camera, the computer system (e.g., 600) detects a second selection input (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)) directed to the corresponding optional control. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the second selection input (e.g., 850c1, 850d, 850f1, and / or 850i2) directed to the corresponding optional control, the computer system (e.g., 600) selects the native zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera in response to detecting (e.g., directly in response to detecting) the second selection input directed to the corresponding optional control. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection input directed to the corresponding selectable control, the computer system changes the appearance of the corresponding selectable control to indicate a native zoom level without indicating a predefined zoom level. In some embodiments, before detecting the selection input directed to the corresponding selectable control, the appearance of the corresponding selectable control has an appearance indicating a predefined zoom level without indicating a native zoom level. In response to detecting a second selection input directed to the corresponding selectable control, selecting the native zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera in response to detecting a second selection input directed to the corresponding selectable control provides the user with control over whether the native zoom level is selected as the current zoom level of the camera, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0302] In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 600) receives a request to display a camera user interface when the corresponding selectable control corresponds to a native zoom level. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the request: based on determining that the user has selected the native zoom level as the predefined zoom level (e.g., the default setting is set to an off state), displaying the corresponding selectable control (e.g., 622b and / or 622e) (e.g., as described above with respect to the first visual representation of the native zoom level (e.g., 1x) (e.g., the appearance of (e.g., 622b or 622e)) via the display generation component. FIG. 8C to FIG. 8LIn some embodiments, in response to receiving the request: based on determining that the user has selected a first zoom level different from the native zoom level (e.g., the default setting is set to an on state), displaying the corresponding selectable control (e.g., 622b and / or 622e) via the display generation component using a second representation of the native zoom level different from the first representation of the native zoom level (e.g., 24MM) (e.g., the appearance of (e.g., 622b and / or 622e)) (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L Displaying the corresponding selectable control using the first representation or the second representation when the specified conditions are met provides visual feedback to the user as to whether a predefined zoom level has been selected as the default, which provides improved visual feedback and performs an operation without further user input when a set of conditions have been met.
[0303] In some embodiments, the plurality of selectable controls (e.g., 622) include a fourth selectable control (e.g., 622a) corresponding to a fourth zoom level. In some embodiments, upon selecting the first zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera (e.g., in response to detecting (e.g., directly in response to detecting) a selection input directed to a corresponding selectable control), the computer system (e.g., 600) detects input directed to a fourth selectable control (e.g., 850p) (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input directed to the fourth selectable control, the computer system (e.g., 600) selects the fourth zoom level as the current zoom level (e.g., in response to detecting the input directed to the fourth selectable control), while continuing to maintain the first zoom level as the zoom level associated with the corresponding selectable control (and / or while continuing to display the corresponding control with an indication of a predefined zoom level) (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8P to Figure 8Q In response to detecting input directed to a fourth selectable control, a fourth zoom level is selected as the current zoom level while continuing to maintain the first zoom level as the predefined zoom level, providing the user with control over whether to select the fourth zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera without modifying the predefined zoom level, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and without affecting the predefined zoom level.
[0304] In some embodiments, when displaying multiple optional controls, the computer system (e.g., 600) detects input pointing to the multiple optional controls (e.g., a drag input, or in some embodiments, a non-drag input (e.g., a tap and drag input, a mouse click and drag input, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)). In some embodiments, when detecting input pointing to multiple optional controls: the computer system (e.g., 600) detects a first portion of the input pointing to the multiple optional controls. In some embodiments, when detecting input pointing to multiple optional controls: in response to detecting a first portion of the input (e.g., 850k and / or 850l) pointing to multiple optional controls (e.g., a tap input and / or a stationary input, such as a mouse click, an air gesture, and / or a long press), the computer system (e.g., 600) selects a first zoom level that does not correspond to the multiple optional controls as the current zoom level of the camera. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the first portion of the input pointing to the multiple optional controls, the computer system displays a user interface object, such as a zoom wheel.
[0305] In some embodiments, upon detecting input directed to multiple selectable controls: after selecting a first zoom level that does not correspond to the multiple selectable controls as the current zoom level of the camera, the computer system (e.g., 600) detects a second portion of the input (e.g., 850k and / or 850l) directed to the multiple selectable controls (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 8K to 8O discussed).
[0306] In some embodiments, when input pointing to multiple selectable controls is detected: in response to detecting a second portion of the input pointing to the multiple selectable controls (e.g., a swipe input and / or a movement input, such as a mouse and drag input, a drag input, and / or an air gesture), the computer system (e.g., 600) selects a second zoom level that does not correspond to the multiple selectable controls as the current zoom level of the camera (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 8K to 8ODiscussed). In some embodiments, a first zoom level that does not correspond to multiple optional controls is different from a second zoom level that does not correspond to multiple optional controls. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a second portion of the input directed to the multiple optional controls, the computer system moves a user interface object, such as a zoom wheel and / or an adjustable control. In some embodiments, the adjustable control includes an indication of a digital zoom level and / or an indication of a native zoom level. In some embodiments, each of the multiple visual indicators has unique visual characteristics that are different from other visual indicators (e.g., unique text (e.g., 0.5X, 1X, 24MM, 28MM, 35MM, 2X and / or 3X), color, size). In some embodiments, dynamically updating the display of a representation to a specific zoom level when a specific zoom-enabled representation is selected provides feedback to the user about changes in the zoom level of the updated representation corresponding to the specific zoom-enabled representation. In response to detecting a second portion of input directed to multiple selectable controls, selecting a second zoom level that does not correspond to the multiple selectable controls as the current zoom level of the camera provides the user with control to select a zoom level that does not correspond to the multiple selectable controls, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and without affecting the predefined zoom levels.
[0307] In some embodiments, upon detecting input directed to multiple selectable controls, the computer system (e.g., 600) detects a third portion of the input directed to the multiple selectable controls (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 8K to 8O In some embodiments, in response to detecting a third portion of input directed to multiple selectable controls (e.g., 850k and / or 850l): based on determining that the location of the input directed to the multiple selectable controls is within a predetermined distance from the location of a representation of a third zoom level (e.g., not corresponding to the multiple selectable controls), the computer system (e.g., 600) selects the third zoom level that does not correspond to the multiple selectable controls as the current zoom level of the camera. In some embodiments, the location of the input directed to the multiple selectable controls is different from the location of the representation of the third zoom level that does not correspond to the multiple selectable controls (e.g., as discussed above with respect to Figures 8K to 8O In some embodiments, in response to detecting a third portion of input directed to the plurality of selectable controls (e.g., 850k and / or 850l): based on determining that the location of the input directed to the plurality of selectable controls is not within a predetermined distance from the location of the third zoomed representation, the computer system (e.g., 600) sets a different zoom level other than the third zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera (e.g., as described above with respect to Figures 8K to 8O In some embodiments, the computer system snaps a selection indication (eg, a marker and / or a selector) to a location corresponding to the third zoom level.
[0308] In some embodiments, the predefined zoom level (e.g., as indicated by 622e and / or 622g) is a digital zoom of a fixed focus camera (e.g., as discussed above with respect to the third selectable control of method 700). Selecting the predefined zoom level that is a digital zoom level as the current zoom level of the camera in response to detecting a selection input directed to the corresponding selectable control provides the user with control of the computer system to set the predefined zoom level at which the computer system is configured to capture media, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.
[0309] In some embodiments, upon selecting the first zoom level as the current zoom level, the computer system (e.g., 600) detects a request to capture media (e.g., 850i1 and / or 850j). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the request to capture media: the computer system (e.g., 600) initiates capture of media at the first zoom level using the camera. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the request to capture media: the computer system (e.g., 600) generates captured media at the first zoom level having a resolution that is approximately the same (e.g., equal, equivalent, within a threshold of pixels (e.g., a threshold aspect ratio and / or a threshold number and / or percentage of pixels (e.g., 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, or 99%)) as the resolution of media captured at the camera's native zoom level (e.g., as described with respect to FIG. 8I to FIG. 8J and Figure 8W to Figure 8X Generating captured media at a first zoom level having approximately the same resolution as media captured at a camera's native zoom level in response to detecting a request to capture media allows a computer system to provide media having similar resolution, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface and reduces the number of inputs required to generate media having similar resolution using different zoom levels.
[0310] In some embodiments, generating captured media at the first zoom level having approximately the same resolution as the resolution of media captured at the camera's native zoom level includes de-merging portions (e.g., pixels) of the media captured at the first zoom level (e.g., as described above with respect to Figure 8W to Figure 8X discussed).
[0311] In some embodiments, before displaying the camera user interface, the computer system (e.g., 600) displays a settings user interface including a control for setting a predefined zoom level (e.g., 822) via a display generation component. In some embodiments, while displaying the settings user interface including a control for setting a predefined zoom level, the computer system (e.g., 600) detects input (e.g., 850c2, 850e, 850f3, and / or 850g) directed to the control for setting the predefined zoom level (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input directed to the control for setting the predefined zoom level, the computer system (e.g., 600) sets the predefined zoom level to a first selected zoom level (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 8C to FIG. 8L Setting the predefined zoom level to the first selected zoom level in response to detecting input directed to a control for setting the predefined zoom level provides the user with control of the computer system to set the predefined zoom level, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.
[0312] In some embodiments, setting the user interface includes a sample representation (e.g., 830) that includes a first cropping indication (e.g., 808a-808c) and a second cropping indication (e.g., 808a-808c). In some embodiments, the first cropping indication indicates how the sample representation will be cropped at a second selected zoom level. In some embodiments, the second cropping indication indicates how the sample representation will be cropped at a third selected zoom level that is different from the second selected zoom level. Displaying the sample representation including the first cropping indication and the second cropping indication (where different indications indicate how the sample representation will be cropped at different zoom levels) provides feedback to the user about how the media will be cropped at different zoom levels, which provides improved visual feedback to the user.
[0313] In some embodiments, controls for setting a predefined zoom level (e.g., 822a-822c and / or 824-824c) are displayed along with an indication of a fourth optional zoom level (e.g., 822a-822c) before input (e.g., a tap input, or in some embodiments, a non-tap input (e.g., a drag input, a mouse click, a gaze input, and / or a press and hold input)) is detected directed to the controls for setting a predefined zoom level (e.g., 850c2 and / or 850e). In some embodiments, in response to detecting input directed to a control for setting a predefined zoom level (e.g., 850c2 and / or 850e), a computer system (e.g., 600) displays, via a display generation component, a control for setting a predefined zoom level (e.g., 822a-822c and / or 824-824c) together with an indication of a first selectable zoom level different from a fourth selectable zoom level (e.g., 822a-822c and / or 824-824c) (e.g., while ceasing to display the indication of the fourth zoom level). Displaying a control for setting a predefined zoom level together with an indication of a first selectable zoom level different from the fourth selectable zoom level in response to detecting input directed to a control for setting a predefined zoom level provides a user with control of the computer system to set a predefined zoom level, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.
[0314] Note that the above description is relative to method 1000 (eg, Fig.10 ) also apply in a similar manner to the methods described herein. For example, method 1000 optionally includes one or more of the features of the various methods described herein with reference to method 700. For example, a computer system can use the techniques described with respect to method 700 to capture media with a resolution at a selected zoom level set using one or more techniques described with respect to method 1000. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated below.
[0315] FIG. 11A to FIG. 11M Illustrated are exemplary user interfaces for managing media stabilization according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including Fig.12 process.
[0316] Fig.11A A computer system 600 is illustrated that displays a camera user interface that includes an indicator area 602, a camera display area 604, and a control area 606. The indicator area 602 includes a flash indicator 602a, a professional resolution indicator 1102a, a time indicator 602e, and a video capture indicator 602f. Fig.11AIn FIG. 6 , the flash indicator 602a indicates that the flash mode is off, and thus the flash will not be used when the computer system 600 is capturing media. In response to detecting input directed to the flash indicator 602a, the computer system 600 changes the flash indicator 602a to indicate that the flash will be used when the computer system 600 is capturing media. Fig.11A , the professional resolution indicator 1102a indicates that the computer system 600 is not configured to generate video media having an enhanced resolution (e.g., a higher resolution than the resolution at which the computer system 600 generates captured video media when the indicator is in a disabled state). Fig.11A At , the professional resolution indicator 1102a is displayed because Figures 6J to 6K The professional resolution control 690c is turned on. Figures 6J to 6K When the professional resolution control 690c is not in an open state, the computer system 600 does not display the professional resolution indicator 1102a. In response to detecting input directed to the professional resolution indicator 1102a, the computer system 600 is configured to generate video media with enhanced resolution. Fig.11A In FIG. 6 , time indicator 602e indicates the capture time associated with the video media. Fig.11A Video media is not being captured at all, so time indicator 602e indicates that zero seconds of video capture have occurred. Video capture indicator 602f indicates the resolution (e.g., "HD") and frames per second ("30") at which computer system 600 is configured to capture video media. In response to detecting input directed to video capture indicator 602f, update computer system 600 is configured to capture video media at a resolution and frames per second (e.g., "HD and / or 4K" with "60 and / or 120 frames per second"). Camera display area 604 includes a live preview 630 displayed using one or more of the techniques discussed above (e.g., in Figure 6B The control area 606 includes the use of the above Figure 6B The shutter control 610, a representation of a media collection 612 (e.g., a representation of recently captured media items), and a camera switcher control 614 are displayed using one or more of the techniques discussed herein. Fig.11A In the control area 606, the camera mode controls 620 are also included. The camera mode controls 620 include a slow motion mode control 620f, a movie video mode control 620a, a video mode control 620b, a photo mode control 620c, and a portrait mode control 620d. Fig.11A , use the same method as above about Figure 6B One or more of the techniques described above display the video mode control 620b as being selected. Fig.11AAt , the computer system 600 is currently operating in a video mode (eg, a mode in which the computer system 600 captures video media in response to detecting an input on the shutter control 610 and / or a request to capture media).
[0317] Fig. 11B The computer system 600 is illustrated displaying a settings user interface. The settings user interface includes an enhanced stabilization control 1110 that is currently in an off state. When the enhanced stabilization control 1110 is in the off state, the computer system 600 is not configured to use (e.g., optionally use) enhanced stabilization when capturing video media. Fig. 11B At 1150b, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 1150b on the enhanced stability control 1110. Fig. 11C As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 1150b, the computer system 600 displays the enhanced stabilization control 1110 in an on state. In addition, in response to detecting the tap input 1150b, the computer system 600 is configured to capture video media with (e.g., optionally with) enhanced stabilization. Fig. 11C At , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 1150c on the exit control 1112.
[0318] like Fig.11D As illustrated, after detecting a tap input 1150c on the exit control 1112, the computer system 600 redisplays the camera user interface. Fig.11D , the computer system 600 updates the indicator area 602 to include the stabilization indicator 1102b1 because the computer system 600 is configured to capture video media with (e.g., optionally with) enhanced stabilization. In some embodiments, when the professional resolution indicator 1102a is not displayed (and / or when Figures 6J to 6K Professional Resolution Control 690c is not turned on), in Fig.11D A stable indicator 1102b1 is displayed at the position where the professional resolution indicator 1102a is displayed. Fig.11D At , the computer system 600 detects an upward swipe input 1150d1 on the real-time preview 630 and / or detects a tap input 1150d2 on the stable indicator 1102b1. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the tap input 1150d2, the computer system 600 displays Fig.11F User interface.
[0319] like Fig.11E As illustrated, in response to detecting the upward swipe input 1150d1, the computer system 600 displays a set of camera setting controls for the video mode. Fig.11EAs illustrated, the camera setting controls include a flash setting control 1106a, an exposure setting control 1160b, and a stabilization setting control 1160c. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input on the flash setting control 1106a, the computer system 600 displays one or more of a flash on control (e.g., for turning on a flash mode), a flash off control (e.g., for turning off a flash mode), and / or an automatic flash on control (e.g., for allowing the computer system to automatically turn on and / or off a flash mode based on environmental conditions). In some embodiments, in response to detecting input on the exposure setting control 1160b, the computer system 600 displays a control (e.g., a slider) for setting exposure compensation. Fig.11E At this point, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 1150e1 on the stability setting control 1160c and / or detects a tap input 1150e2 on the stability indicator 1102b1.
[0320] like Fig.11F As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 1150e1 or the tap input 1150e2 (or Fig.11D The computer system 600 moves the zoom control 622 upward (e.g., from the zoom control 622 at Fig.11D and in the zoom control 622 Fig.11D The stable control 1122 is displayed at the position shown at the top. The stable control 1122 includes a closed stable control 1122a, a high stable control 1122b, and an ultra stable control 1122c. Fig.11F At , the close stability control 1122a is selected (e.g., as indicated by the close stability control 1122a). Fig.11F As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 1150e1 or the tap input 1150e2 (or Fig.11D 2), the computer system 600 changes the appearance of the stable indicator (e.g., replaces the stable indicator 1102b1 with the stable indicator 1102b2) to indicate that the stable mode is active (e.g., from Fig.11F Stability indicator removed at Fig.11E In response to detecting the tap input 1150e1 or the tap input 1150e2 (or Fig.11Dd2), the computer system 600 displays a stable banner notification 1188a indicating that the computer system 600 is operating in a stable mode (e.g., "stable on") (e.g., or has or will begin operating in that mode). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 stops displaying the banner notification 1188a after a predetermined time period (e.g., 1 to 10 seconds) (e.g., while the computer system 600 continues to operate in the stable mode). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 stops displaying the banner notification 1188a to save screen real estate and / or reduce the number of visual distractions (e.g., so that the user can focus on capturing the visual content displayed via the live preview 630). Fig.11F At 150 , the computer system 600 detects a tap input 1150f1 on the shutter control 610 (e.g., as described below with respect to Fig.11G ), a tap input 1150f2 on a high stability control 1122b (e.g., as discussed below with respect to Fig.11H discussed above), tap input 1150f3 on ultra-stable control 1122c (e.g., as discussed below with respect to Fig.11J discussed above), right swipe input 1150f4 on live preview 630 (e.g., as discussed below with respect to Figure 11K ), left swipe input 1150f5 on live preview 630 (e.g., as discussed below with respect to Fig.11M In some embodiments, the banner is displayed adjacent to the camera preview. In some embodiments, the banner is displayed overlapping at least a portion of the camera preview.
[0321] like Fig.11G As shown, in response to detecting a tap input 1150f1 on the shutter control 610, the computer system 600 Fig.11F The video media is captured by selecting the close stabilization control 1122a (e.g., because the close stabilization control 1122a is selected (e.g., bolded) when the tap input 1150f1 is detected. Fig.11G As illustrated, in response to detecting a tap input 1150f1 on the shutter control 610, the computer system 600 stops displaying one or more controls (e.g., including the stabilization control 122) and an indicator (e.g., the stabilization indicator 1102b1). When capturing media in accordance with the selection of the off stabilization control 1122a, the computer system 600 displays the image at a normal stabilization level and / or at a low stabilization level. Fig. 11BWhen the enhanced stabilization control 1110 is in the off state, the computer system 600 uses stabilization to capture video media (e.g., the computer system is not configured to optionally capture video media with enhanced stabilization). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 digitally zooms (e.g., zooms more than the zoom level of the captured video (e.g., as indicated by the selected zoom control 622b). Fig.11G "1x" at the selected Fig.11F The close stability control 1122a generates (and / or captures) media.
[0322] like Fig.11H As illustrated, in response to detecting Fig.11F In response to a tap input 1150f2 on the high stability control 1122b at the position indicated, the computer system 600 displays the high stability control 1122b as selected and zooms in the live preview 630 (e.g., because the computer system 600 is applying high stabilization using a larger zoom level than the computer system 600 is applying normal stabilization). In addition, the computer system 600 replaces the stabilization indicator 1102b2 with the stabilization indicator 1102b3 (and replaces the indicator 1124a with the indicator 1124b) to indicate that the high stability control 1122b is selected (e.g., the indicator is changed from including Fig.11F The walking icon at the Fig.11H ). Fig.11H In response to detecting the tap input 1150f2, the computer system 600 is configured to capture media according to the selected high stability control 1122b. Fig.11H At 1150h, the computer system 600 detects a tap input 1150h on the shutter control 610. Fig.11I As shown, in response to detecting the tap input 1150h, the computer system 600 Fig.11H The highly stable control 1122b is selected (eg, bolded) when the tap input 1150h is detected) to capture video media. Fig.11I As illustrated, in response to detecting the tap input 1150h, the computer system 600 stops displaying one or more controls and indicators. When capturing media in accordance with the selected high stability control 1122b, the computer system 600 captures video media at a higher level of stability than a normal level of stability (e.g., as discussed above). In some embodiments, the computer system 600 applies more digital zoom (e.g., 0.1 to 0.5 more digital zoom than applied at a normal level of stability) (e.g., by Fig.11H 630).
[0323] like Fig.11J As illustrated, in response to detecting Fig.11F In response to a tap input 1150f3 on the ultra-stable control 1122c at the position indicated, the computer system 600 displays the ultra-stable control 1122c as selected and zooms in the live preview 630 (e.g., because the computer system 600 is applying ultra-stable using a larger zoom level than the computer system 600 was using to apply high-stable). In addition, the computer system 600 replaces the stable indicator 1102b2 with the stable indicator 1102b4 (and replaces the indicator 1124a with the indicator 1124c) to indicate that the ultra-stable control 1122b is selected (e.g., the icon changes from Fig.11F The walking icon at Fig.11J running icon with wind in it). Fig.11J The stability indicator 1102b3 (and indicator 1124c) has the same Fig.11H The stabilization indicator 1102b2 (and indicator 1124b) of FIG. 1104 may have a different appearance to indicate that a higher degree of stabilization will be applied to the video media when the computer system is configured to capture media with ultra stabilization than would be applied if the computer system was configured to capture media with high stabilization.

A method, comprising: At a computer system having one or more cameras: detecting requests to capture visual media; as well as In response to detecting the request to capture visual media, initiating capture of visual media via the one or more cameras, comprising: generating visually captured media having a first resolution based on determining that the device setting is in a first state and detecting a first set of environmental conditions affecting media capture; generating visually captured media having a second resolution different from the first resolution based on determining that the device setting is in the first state and detecting a second set of environmental conditions affecting media capture, wherein the second set of media capture conditions is different from the first set of media capture conditions; and Based on determining that the device setting is in a second state different from the first state, generating visual captured media having a second resolution different from the first resolution, regardless of whether the first set of environmental conditions affecting media capture or the second set of environmental conditions affecting media capture is detected. 2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first set of environmental conditions comprises lighting conditions based on an amount of light in a field of view of the one or more cameras.
3. The method of any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein the first set of environmental conditions includes conditions detected based on whether a flash for media capture is enabled.
4. The method of any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein the first set of environmental conditions and the second set of environmental conditions do not include conditions that depend on a user-configurable resolution setting.
5. The method according to any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein the second resolution is more than fifty percent higher than the first resolution.
6. The method according to any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein: Generating visually captured media having the first resolution includes generating visual media having respective fields of view of the one or more cameras; and Generating visual captured media having the second resolution includes generating visual media having the respective fields of view of the one or more cameras.
7. The method according to any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein: Generating visual captured media having the first resolution includes generating visual media using one or more capture settings in corresponding states; and Generating visual captured media having the second resolution includes generating visual media using the one or more capture settings in the corresponding states.
8. The method of any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein the second resolution is a resolution that is less than a maximum resolution that can be used to generate visual media captured using the one or more cameras.
9. The method according to any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein: Based on determining that the first user-configurable setting is in the first state, the second resolution is a third resolution; and Based on determining that the first user-configurable setting is in a second state different from the first state, the second resolution is a fourth resolution lower than the third resolution.
10. The method of any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein the first set of environmental conditions comprises conditions detected when setting user-configurable settings for capturing media at the first resolution.
11. The method of any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein the first resolution is a resolution used to capture video media.
12. The method according to any one of claims 1 to 2, wherein: The one or more cameras include a fixed focus camera; initiating capture of the visual media via the one or more cameras includes initiating capture of the visual media via the fixed focus camera; The first resolution is a native resolution of the fixed focus camera; and The second resolution is not the native resolution of the fixed focus camera.
13. A computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of a computer system having one or more cameras, the one or more programs comprising instructions for executing the method according to any one of claims 1 to 12.
14. A computer system comprising: one or more cameras; one or more processors; and A memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs comprising instructions for executing the method according to any one of claims 1 to 12.
15. A computer system having one or more cameras, the computer system comprising: Device for carrying out the method according to any one of claims 1 to 12.
16. A computer program product comprising one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of a computer system having one or more cameras, the one or more programs comprising instructions for performing the method according to any one of claims 1 to 12.
