Abstract
Claims
1. It is a method, In a computer system that communicates with a display generation component and one or more input devices, The method involves displaying a first wake screen user interface via the aforementioned display generation component, wherein the first wake screen user interface includes a first style indicating time. While the first wake screen user interface is displayed, a first input of a first type is detected via one or more input devices. In response to the detection of the first input, via the display generation component, A set of widgets, One or more visual elements including the first style for indicating time, based on the first style for indicating time of the first wake screen user interface, To display, The process involves displaying the first wake screen user interface, followed by displaying a second wake screen user interface, different from the first wake screen user interface, via the display generation component, wherein the second wake screen user interface includes a second style for indicating time, which is different from the first style for indicating time. While the second wake screen user interface is displayed, the first type of second input is detected via one or more input devices. In response to the detection of the second input, via the display generation component, The set of widgets mentioned above, One or more visual elements including the second style for indicating time, based on the second style for indicating time of the second wake screen user interface, A method that includes displaying something.
2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the one or more input devices include a rotatable input mechanism, and the first type of input is a rotational input received via the rotatable input mechanism.
3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the first type of input is a first swipe input received via one or more input devices.
4. While the first wake screen user interface is displayed, a second swipe input is detected via one or more input devices. In response to the detection of the second swipe input, In accordance with the determination that the second swipe input is in the first direction, the set of widgets is displayed via the display generation component, The method according to claim 3, further comprising: displaying a first user interface, which does not include the set of widgets, via the display generation component, in accordance with the determination that the second swipe input is in a second direction different from the first direction.
5. The method according to claim 3, wherein the display generation component includes a display device, and the first swipe input starts at the edge of the display device.
6. While the first wake screen user interface is displayed, a third swipe input is detected via one or more input devices. In response to detecting the third swipe input, In accordance with the determination that the third swipe input begins at the first edge, the set of widgets is displayed via the display generation component, The method according to claim 5, further comprising: displaying a second user interface, which does not include the set of widgets, via the display generation component, in accordance with the determination that the third swipe input begins at a second edge different from the first edge.
7. While the first wake screen user interface is displayed, a fourth swipe input is detected via one or more input devices, wherein the fourth swipe input begins in the non-edge region of the display device. The method according to claim 5, further comprising detecting the fourth swipe input and performing an action different from the individual actions performed when the first swipe input is initiated at an individual edge of the display device.
8. In response to detecting the first input, a first system user interface including one or more visual elements based on the first wake screen user interface is displayed via the display generation component, The method according to claim 1, further comprising: detecting the second input, and displaying a second system user interface, which includes one or more visual elements based on the second wake screen user interface, via the display generation component.
9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the typeface of one or more visual elements of an individual system user interface is based on the typeface of an individual wake user interface.
10. The method according to claim 8, wherein the color of one or more visual elements of an individual system user interface is based on the color of an individual wake user interface.
11. The method according to claim 8, wherein one or more visual elements of an individual system user interface include animated characters based on animated characters of an individual wake user interface.
12. The method according to claim 1, further comprising, in response to detecting the first input, displaying a system user interface via the display generation component, the system user interface comprising the set of widgets, and displaying the system user interface comprising displaying a first transition animation from the first wake screen user interface to the system user interface, the first transition animation being at least partially based on the first wake screen user interface.
13. While displaying the set of widgets, a third input of a second type different from the first type is detected via one or more input devices. The method according to claim 1, further comprising displaying a separate wake user interface in response to the detection of the third input of the second type.
14. The method according to claim 1, wherein the set of widgets displayed in response to the first input is displayed in an order specified by the user.
15. In accordance with the determination that a live session is available, the set of widgets includes a second widget corresponding to the live session. The method according to claim 1, wherein, in accordance with the determination that a live session is unavailable, the set of widgets does not include the second widget corresponding to the live session.
16. The method according to claim 15, wherein the live session is generated based on information from an application of the computer system.
17. The method according to claim 15, wherein the live session is generated based on information from an application of a companion computer system different from the computer system.
18. The set of widgets includes a first subset of widgets and a second subset of widgets different from the first subset of widgets, and displaying the set of widgets in response to detecting the second input includes displaying the first subset of widgets in the set of widgets without displaying the second subset of widgets in the set of widgets, and the method is While displaying a first subset of the widgets from the set of widgets via the display generation component, a fourth input is detected via one or more input devices. The method according to claim 1, further comprising: detecting the fourth input, and displaying a second subset of the widgets from the set of widgets via the display generation component.
19. While the set of widgets is displayed, a fifth input is detected via one or more input devices. The method according to claim 1, further comprising: detecting the fifth input, and displaying a set of application icons via the display generation component to start displaying each application.
20. The display generation component includes physical characteristics, and the display of the set of widgets is In accordance with the determination that the physical characteristics of the display generation component correspond to a first physical characteristic value, the set of widgets having the first layout characteristics is displayed. The method according to claim 1, comprising: displaying the set of widgets using a second layout characteristic different from the first layout characteristic, in accordance with the determination that the physical characteristics of the display generation component correspond to a second physical characteristic value different from the first physical characteristic value.
