Further, such techniques can reduce processor and battery power otherwise wasted on redundant user inputs.

[0069] Below, FIGS. 1A-1B, 2, 3A, 4A-4B, and 5A-5B provide a description of exemplary devices for performing the techniques for managing event notifications. FIGS. 6A-6X, 8A-8N, 10A-10N, and 12A-12Q illustrate techniques for displaying background regions for time user interfaces. FIGS. 7, 9, 11, and 13 are flow diagrams illustrating methods displaying background regions for time user interfaces, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in FIGS. 6A-6X are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 7. The user interfaces in FIGS. 8A-8N are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 9. The userinterfaces in FIGS. 10A-10N are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 11. The user interfaces in FIGS. 12A-12Q are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 13. FIGS. 14A- 14V illustrate techniques for displaying an indication of timer progress, in accordance with some embodiments. FIG. 15 is a flow diagram illustrating methods for displaying an indication of timer progress, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in FIGS. 14A- 14V are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 15. FIGS. 16A-16AB-3 illustrate techniques for displaying one or more time user interfaces that includes one or more visual media items, in accordance with some embodiments. FIG. 17 is a flow diagram illustrating methods for displaying a time user interface that includes one or more visual media items, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in FIGS. 16A-16AB-3 are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 17.

[0070] The processes described below enhance the operability of the devices and make the user-device interfaces more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing user mistakes when operating / interacting with the device) through various techniques, including by providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs needed to perform an operation, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, performing an operation when a set of conditions has been met without requiring further user input, preventing display burn-in, and / or additional techniques. These techniques also reduce power usage and improve battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the device more quickly and efficiently.

[0071] In addition, in methods described herein where one or more steps are contingent upon one or more conditions having been met, it should be understood that the described method can be repeated in multiple repetitions so that over the course of the repetitions all of the conditions upon which steps in the method are contingent have been met in different repetitions of the method. For example, if a method requires performing a first step if a condition is satisfied, and a second step if the condition is not satisfied, then a person of ordinary skill would appreciate that the claimed steps are repeated until the condition has been both satisfied and not satisfied, in no particular order. Thus, a method described with one or more steps that are contingent upon one or more conditions having been met could berewritten as a method that is repeated until each of the conditions described in the method has been met. This, however, is not required of system or computer readable medium claims where the system or computer readable medium contains instructions for performing the contingent operations based on the satisfaction of the corresponding one or more conditions and thus is capable of determining whether the contingency has or has not been satisfied without explicitly repeating steps of a method until all of the conditions upon which steps in the method are contingent have been met. A person having ordinary skill in the art would also understand that, similar to a method with contingent steps, a system or computer readable storage medium can repeat the steps of a method as many times as are needed to ensure that all of the contingent steps have been performed.

[0072] Although the following description uses terms “first,” “second,” etc. to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by the terms. In some embodiments, these terms are used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first touch could be termed a second touch, and, similarly, a second touch could be termed 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, the first touch and the second touch are both touches, but they are not the same touch.

[0073] The terminology used in the description of the various described embodiments herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used in the description of the various described embodiments and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the term “and / or” as used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms “includes,” “including,” “comprises,” and / or “comprising,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and / or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or groups thereof.

[0074] The term “if’ is, optionally, construed to mean “when” or “upon” or “in response to determining” or “in response to detecting,” depending on the context. Similarly, the phrase “if it is determined” or “if [a stated condition or event] is detected” is, optionally,construed to mean “upon determining” or “in response to determining” or “upon detecting [the stated condition or event]” or “in response to detecting [the stated condition or event],” depending on the context.

[0075] Embodiments of electronic devices, user interfaces for such devices, and associated processes for using such devices are described. In some embodiments, the device is a portable communications device, such as a mobile telephone, that also contains other functions, such as PDA and / or music player functions. Exemplary embodiments of portable multifunction devices include, without limitation, the iPhone®, iPod Touch®, and iPad® devices from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California. Other portable electronic devices, such as laptops or tablet computers with touch-sensitive surfaces (e.g., touch screen displays and / or touchpads), are, optionally, used. It should also be understood that, in some embodiments, the device is not a portable communications device, but is a desktop computer with a touch- sensitive surface (e.g., a touch screen display and / or a touchpad). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system that is in communication (e.g., via wireless communication, via wired communication) with a display generation component. 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 separate from the computer system. As used herein, “displaying” content includes causing to display the content (e.g., video data rendered or decoded by display controller 156) by transmitting, via a wired or wireless connection, data (e.g., image data or video data) to an integrated or external display generation component to visually produce the content.

[0076] In the discussion that follows, an electronic device that includes a display and a touch-sensitive surface is described. It should be understood, however, that the electronic device optionally includes one or more other physical user-interface devices, such as a physical keyboard, a mouse, and / or a joystick.

[0077] 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 authoring application, a spreadsheet application, a gaming application, a telephone application, a video conferencing application, an e-mail application, an instant messaging application, a workout support application, a photo managementapplication, 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.

[0078] The various applications that are executed on the device optionally use at least one common physical user-interface device, such as the touch-sensitive surface. One or more functions of the touch-sensitive surface as well as corresponding information displayed on the device are, optionally, adjusted and / or varied from one application to the next and / or within a respective application. In this way, a common physical architecture (such as the touch- sensitive surface) of the device optionally supports the variety of applications with user interfaces that are intuitive and transparent to the user.

[0079] Attention is now directed toward embodiments of portable devices with touch- sensitive displays. FIG. 1 A is a block diagram illustrating portable multifunction device 100 with touch-sensitive display system 112 in accordance with some embodiments. Touch- sensitive display 112 is sometimes called a “touch screen” for convenience and is sometimes known as or called a “touch-sensitive display system.” Device 100 includes memory 102 (which optionally includes one or more computer-readable storage mediums), memory controller 122, one or more processing units (CPUs) 120, peripherals interface 118, RF circuitry 108, audio circuitry 110, speaker 111, microphone 113, input / output (I / O) subsystem 106, other input control devices 116, and external port 124. Device 100 optionally includes one or more optical sensors 164. Device 100 optionally includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 for detecting intensity of contacts on device 100 (e.g., a touch- sensitive surface such as touch-sensitive display system 112 of device 100). Device 100 optionally includes one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile outputs on device 100 (e.g., generating tactile outputs on a touch-sensitive surface such as touch- sensitive display system 112 of device 100 or touchpad 355 of device 300). These components optionally communicate over one or more communication buses or signal lines 103.

[0080] As used in the 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 substitute (proxy) for the force or pressure of a contact on the touch-sensitive surface. The intensity of a contact has a range of values that includes at least four distinct values and more typically includes hundreds of distinct values (e.g., at least 256). Intensity of a contact is, optionally, determined (ormeasured) using various approaches and various sensors or combinations of sensors. For example, one or more force sensors underneath or adjacent to the touch-sensitive surface are, optionally, used to measure force at various points on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, force measurements from multiple force sensors are combined (e.g., a weighted average) to determine an estimated force of a contact. Similarly, a pressuresensitive tip of a stylus is, optionally, used to determine a pressure of the stylus on the touch- sensitive surface. Alternatively, the size of the contact area detected on the touch-sensitive surface and / or changes thereto, the capacitance of the touch-sensitive surface proximate to the contact and / or changes thereto, and / or the resistance of the touch-sensitive surface proximate to the contact and / or changes thereto are, optionally, used as a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, the substitute measurements for contact force or pressure are used directly to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is described in units corresponding to the substitute measurements). In some implementations, the substitute measurements for contact force or pressure are converted to an estimated force or pressure, and the estimated force or pressure is used to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is a pressure threshold measured in units of pressure). Using the intensity of a contact as an attribute of a user input allows for user access to additional device functionality that may otherwise not be accessible by the user on a reduced-size device with limited real estate for displaying affordances (e.g., on a touch- sensitive display) and / or receiving user input (e.g., via a touch-sensitive display, a touch- sensitive surface, or a physical / mechanical control such as a knob or a button).

[0081] As used in the specification and claims, the term “tactile output” refers to physical displacement of a device relative to a previous position of the device, physical displacement of a component (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface) of a device relative to another component (e.g., housing) of the device, or displacement of the component relative to a center of mass of the device that will be detected by a user with the user’s sense of touch. For example, in situations where the device or the component of the device is in contact with a surface of a user that is sensitive to touch (e.g., a finger, palm, or other part of a 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 physical characteristics of the device or the 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 “down click” or “upclick” of a physical actuator button. In some cases, a user will feel a tactile sensation such as an “down click” or “up click” even when there is no movement of a physical actuator button associated with the touch-sensitive surface that is physically pressed (e.g., displaced) by the user’s movements. As another example, movement of the touch-sensitive surface is, optionally, interpreted or sensed by the user as “roughness” of the touch-sensitive surface, even when there is no change in smoothness of the touch-sensitive surface. While such interpretations of touch by a user will be subject to the individualized sensory perceptions of the user, there are many sensory perceptions of touch that are common to a large majority of users. Thus, when a tactile output is described as corresponding to a particular sensory perception of a user (e.g., an “up click,” a “down click,” “roughness”), unless otherwise stated, the generated tactile output corresponds to physical displacement of the device or a component thereof that will generate the described sensory perception for a typical (or average) user.

[0082] It should be appreciated that device 100 is only 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. The various components shown in FIG. 1 A 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.

[0083] Memory 102 optionally includes high-speed random access memory and optionally also includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid-state memory devices. Memory controller 122 optionally controls access to memory 102 by other components of device 100.

[0084] Peripherals interface 118 can be used to couple input and output peripherals of the device to CPU 120 and memory 102. The one or more processors 120 run or execute various software programs (such as computer programs (e.g., including instructions)) and / or sets of instructions stored in memory 102 to perform various functions for device 100 and to process data. In some embodiments, peripherals interface 118, CPU 120, and memory controller 122 are, optionally, implemented on a single chip, such as chip 104. In some other embodiments, they are, optionally, implemented on separate chips.

[0085] RF (radio frequency) circuitry 108 receives and sends RF signals, also called electromagnetic signals. RF circuitry 108 converts electrical signals to / from electromagnetic signals and communicates with communications networks and other communications devices via the electromagnetic signals. RF circuitry 108 optionally includes well-known circuitry for performing these functions, including but not limited to an antenna system, an RF transceiver, one or more amplifiers, a tuner, one or more oscillators, a digital signal processor, a CODEC chipset, a subscriber identity module (SIM) card, memory, and so forth. RF circuitry 108 optionally communicates with networks, such as the Internet, also referred to as the World Wide Web (WWW), an intranet and / or a wireless network, such as a cellular telephone network, a wireless local area network (LAN) and / or a metropolitan area network (MAN), and other devices by wireless communication. The RF circuitry 108 optionally includes well-known circuitry for detecting near field communication (NFC) fields, such as by a short-range communication radio.

I la, IEEE 802.1 lb, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.1 In, and / or IEEE 802.1 lac), voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), Wi-MAX, a protocol for e-mail (e.g., Internet message access protocol (IMAP) and / or post office protocol (POP)), instant messaging (e.g., extensible messaging and presence protocol (XMPP), Session Initiation Protocol for Instant Messaging and Presence Leveraging Extensions (SIMPLE), Instant Messaging and Presence Service (IMPS)), and / or Short Message Service (SMS), or any other suitable communication protocol, including communication protocols not yet developed as of the filing date of this document.

[0086] Audio circuitry 110, speaker 111, and microphone 113 provide an audio interface between a user and device 100. Audio circuitry 110 receives audio data from peripherals interface 118, converts the audio data to an electrical signal, and transmits the electrical signal to speaker 111. Speaker 111 converts the electrical signal to human-audible sound waves. Audio circuitry 110 also receives electrical signals converted by microphone 113from sound waves. Audio circuitry 110 converts the electrical signal to audio data and transmits the audio data to peripherals interface 118 for processing. Audio data is, optionally, retrieved from and / or transmitted to memory 102 and / or RF circuitry 108 by peripherals interface 118. In some embodiments, audio circuitry 110 also includes a headset jack (e.g., 212, FIG. 2). The headset jack provides an interface between audio circuitry 110 and removable audio input / output peripherals, such as output-only headphones or a headset with both output (e.g., a headphone for one or both ears) and input (e.g., a microphone).

[0087] I / O subsystem 106 couples input / output peripherals on device 100, such as touch screen 112 and other input control devices 116, to peripherals interface 118. VO subsystem 106 optionally includes display controller 156, optical sensor controller 158, depth camera controller 169, intensity sensor controller 159, haptic 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 / to other input control devices 116. The other input control devices 116 optionally include physical buttons (e.g., push buttons, rocker buttons, etc.), dials, slider switches, joysticks, click wheels, and so forth. In some embodiments, input controlled s) 160 are, optionally, coupled to any (or none) of the following: a keyboard, an infrared port, a USB port, and a pointer device such as a mouse. The one or more buttons (e.g., 208, FIG. 2) optionally include an up / down button for volume control of speaker 111 and / or microphone 113. The one or more buttons optionally include a push button (e.g., 206, FIG. 2). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system that is in communication (e.g., via wireless communication, via wired communication) with one or more input devices. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices include a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a trackpad, 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 independently of an input element that is a part of the device) and is based on detected motion of a portion of the user’s body through the air including motion of the user’s body relative to an absolute reference (e.g., an angle of the user’s arm relative to the ground or a distance of the user’s hand relative to the ground),relative to another portion of the user’s body (e.g., movement of a hand of the user relative to a shoulder of the user, movement of one hand of the user relative to another hand of the user, and / or movement of a finger of the user relative to another finger or portion of a hand of the user), and / or absolute motion of a portion of the user’s body (e.g., a tap gesture that includes movement of a hand in a predetermined pose by a predetermined amount and / or speed, or a shake gesture that includes a predetermined speed or amount of rotation of a portion of the user’s body).

[0088] A quick press of the push button optionally disengages a lock of touch screen 112 or optionally begins a process that uses gestures on the touch screen to unlock the device, as described in U.S. Patent Application 11 / 322,549, “Unlocking a Device by Performing Gestures on an Unlock Image,” filed December 23, 2005, U.S. Pat. No. 7,657,849, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. A longer press of the push button (e.g., 206) optionally turns power to device 100 on or off. The functionality of one or more of the buttons are, optionally, user-customizable. Touch screen 112 is used to implement virtual or soft buttons and one or more soft keyboards.

[0089] Touch-sensitive display 112 provides an input interface and an output interface between the device and a user. Display controller 156 receives and / or sends electrical signals from / to touch screen 112. Touch screen 112 displays visual output to the user. The visual output optionally includes graphics, text, icons, video, and any combination thereof (collectively termed “graphics”). In some embodiments, some or all of the visual output optionally corresponds to user-interface objects.

[0090] Touch screen 112 has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor, or set of sensors that accepts input from the user based on haptic and / or tactile contact. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 (along with any associated modules and / or sets of instructions in memory 102) detect contact (and any movement or breaking of the contact) on touch screen 112 and convert the detected contact into interaction with user-interface objects (e.g., one or more soft keys, icons, web pages, or images) that are displayed on touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, a point of contact between touch screen 112 and the user corresponds to a finger of the user.

[0091] 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. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 optionally detect contact and any movement or breaking thereof using any of a plurality 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 touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, projected mutual capacitance sensing technology is used, such as that found in the iPhone® and iPod Touch® from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California.

[0092] A touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of touch screen 112 is, optionally, analogous to the multi-touch sensitive touchpads 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), 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, whereas touch-sensitive touchpads do not provide visual output.

[0093] A touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of touch screen 112 is described in the following applications: (1) U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 381,313, “Multipoint Touch Surface Controller,” filed May 2, 2006; (2) U.S. Patent Application No. 10 / 840,862, “Multipoint Touchscreen,” filed May 6, 2004; (3) U.S. Patent Application No. 10 / 903,964, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed July 30, 2004; (4) U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 048,264, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed January 31, 2005; (5) U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 038,590, “Mode-Based Graphical User Interfaces For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed January 18, 2005; (6) U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 228,758, “Virtual Input Device Placement On A Touch Screen User Interface,” filed September 16, 2005; (7) U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 228,700, “Operation Of A Computer With A Touch Screen Interface,” filed September 16, 2005; (8) U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 228,737, “Activating Virtual Keys Of A Touch-Screen Virtual Keyboard,” filed September 16, 2005; and (9) U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 367,749, “Multi-Functional Hand-Held Device,” filed March 3, 2006. All of these applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.

[0094] Touch screen 112 optionally has a video resolution in excess of 100 dpi. In some embodiments, the touch screen has a video resolution of approximately 160 dpi. The user optionally makes contact with touch screen 112 using any suitable object or appendage, suchas a stylus, a finger, and so forth. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work primarily with finger-based contacts and gestures, which can be less precise than stylusbased input due to the larger area of contact of a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device translates the rough finger-based input into a precise pointer / cursor position or command for performing the actions desired by the user.

[0095] In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, device 100 optionally includes a touchpad for activating or deactivating particular functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of the device that, unlike the touch screen, does not display visual output. The touchpad is, optionally, a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from touch screen 112 or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touch screen.

[0096] Device 100 also includes power system 162 for powering the various components. Power system 162 optionally includes a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., battery, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, a power failure detection circuit, a power converter or inverter, a power status indicator (e.g., a light-emitting diode (LED)) and any other components associated with the generation, management and distribution of power in portable devices.

[0097] Device 100 optionally also includes secure element 163 for securely storing information. In some embodiments, secure element 163 is a hardware component (e.g., a secure microcontroller chip) configured to securely store data or an algorithm. In some embodiments, secure element 163 provides (e.g., releases) secure information (e.g., payment information (e.g., an account number and / or a transaction-specific dynamic security code), identification information (e.g., credentials of a state-approved digital identification), and / or authentication information (e.g., data generated using a cryptography engine and / or by performing asymmetric cryptography operations)). In some embodiments, secure element 163 provides (or releases) the secure information in response to device 100 receiving authorization, such as a user authentication (e.g., fingerprint authentication; passcode authentication; detecting double-press of a hardware button when device 100 is in an unlocked state, and optionally, while device 100 has been continuously on a user’s wrist since device 100 was unlocked by providing authentication credentials to device 100, where the continuous presence of device 100 on the user’s wrist is determined by periodically checking that the device is in contact with the user’s skin). For example, device 100 detects afingerprint at a fingerprint sensor (e.g., a fingerprint sensor integrated into a button) of device 100. Device 100 determines whether the detected fingerprint is consistent with an enrolled fingerprint. In accordance with a determination that the fingerprint is consistent with the enrolled fingerprint, secure element 163 provides (e.g., releases) the secure information. In accordance with a determination that the fingerprint is not consistent with the enrolled fingerprint, secure element 163 forgoes providing (e.g., releasing) the secure information.

[0098] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more optical sensors 164. FIG. 1A shows an optical sensor coupled to optical sensor controller 158 in I / O subsystem 106. Optical sensor 164 optionally includes charge-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistors. Optical sensor 164 receives light from the environment, projected through one or more lenses, and converts the light to data representing an image. In conjunction with imaging module 143 (also called a camera module), optical sensor 164 optionally captures still images or video. In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touch screen display 112 on the front of the device so that the touch screen display is enabled for use as a viewfinder for still and / or video image acquisition. In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the front of the device so that the user’s image is, optionally, obtained for video conferencing while the user views the other video conference participants on the touch screen display. In some embodiments, the position of optical sensor 164 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and the sensor in the device housing) so that a single optical sensor 164 is used along with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still and / or video image acquisition.

[0099] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more depth camera sensors 175. FIG. 1A shows a depth camera sensor coupled to depth camera controller 169 in I / O subsystem 106. Depth camera sensor 175 receives data from the environment to create a three dimensional model of an object (e.g., a face) within a scene from a viewpoint (e.g., a depth camera sensor). In some embodiments, in conjunction with imaging module 143 (also called a camera module), 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, a depth camera sensor is located on the front of device 100 so that the user’s image with depth information is, optionally, obtained for video conferencing while the user views the other video conference participants on the touch screen display and to captureselfies with depth map data. In some embodiments, the depth camera sensor 175 is located on the back of device, or on the back and the front of the device 100. In some embodiments, the position of depth camera sensor 175 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and the sensor in the device housing) so that a depth camera sensor 175 is used along with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still and / or video image acquisition.

[0100] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165. FIG. 1A shows a contact intensity sensor coupled to intensity sensor controller 159 in I / O subsystem 106. Contact intensity sensor 165 optionally includes one or more piezoresistive strain gauges, capacitive force sensors, electric force sensors, piezoelectric force sensors, optical force sensors, capacitive touch-sensitive surfaces, or other intensity sensors (e.g., sensors used to measure the force (or pressure) of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface). Contact intensity sensor 165 receives contact intensity information (e.g., pressure information or a proxy for pressure information) from the environment. In some embodiments, at least one contact intensity sensor is collocated with, or proximate to, a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112). In some embodiments, at least one contact intensity sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touch screen display 112, which is located on the front of device 100.

[0101] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more proximity sensors 166. FIG. 1A shows proximity sensor 166 coupled to peripherals interface 118. Alternately, proximity sensor 166 is, optionally, coupled to input controller 160 in I / O subsystem 106. Proximity sensor 166 optionally performs as described in U.S. Patent Application Nos. 11 / 241,839, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device”; 11 / 240,788, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device”; 11 / 620,702, “Using Ambient Light Sensor To Augment Proximity Sensor Output”; 11 / 586,862, “Automated Response To And Sensing Of User Activity In Portable Devices”; and 11 / 638,251, “Methods And Systems For Automatic Configuration Of Peripherals,” which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. In some embodiments, the proximity sensor turns off and disables touch screen 112 when the multifunction device is placed near the user’s ear (e.g., when the user is making a phone call).

[0102] Device 100 optionally also includes one or more tactile output generators 167. FIG. 1 A shows a tactile output generator coupled to haptic feedback controller 161 in I / O subsystem 106.

In some embodiments, information is displayed on the touch screen display in a portrait view or a landscape view based on an analysis of data received from the one or more accelerometers. Device 100 optionally includes, in addition to accelerometer(s) 168, a magnetometer and a GPS (or GLONASS or other global navigation system) receiver for obtaining information concerning the location and orientation (e.g., portrait or landscape) of device 100.

[0104] In some embodiments, the software components stored in memory 102 include operating system 126, biometric module 109, communication module (or set of instructions) 128, contact / motion module (or set of instructions) 130, graphics module (or set of instructions) 132, text input module (or set of instructions) 134, Global Positioning System (GPS) module (or set of instructions) 135, authentication module 105, and applications (or sets of instructions) 136. Furthermore, in some embodiments, memory 102 (FIG. 1A) or 370 (FIG. 3 A) stores device / global internal state 157, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 3 A.Device / global internal state 157 includes one or more of: active application state, indicating which applications, if any, are currently active; display state, indicating what applications, views or other information occupy various regions of touch screen display 112; sensor state, including information obtained from the device’s various sensors and input control devices 116; and location information concerning the device’s location and / or attitude.

[0105] 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 facilitates communication between various hardware and software components.

[0106] Communication module 128 facilitates communication with other devices over one or more external ports 124 and also includes various software components for handling data received by RF circuitry 108 and / or external port 124. External port 124 (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB), FIREWIRE, etc.) is adapted for coupling directly to other devices or indirectly over a network (e.g., the Internet, wireless LAN, etc.). In some embodiments, the external port is a multi-pin (e.g., 30-pin) connector that is the same as, or similar to and / or compatible with, the 30-pin connector used on iPod® (trademark of Apple Inc.) devices.

[0107] Biometric module 109 optionally stores information about one or more enrolled biometric features (e.g., fingerprint feature information, facial recognition feature information, eye and / or iris feature information) for use to verify whether received biometric information matches the enrolled biometric features. In some embodiments, the information stored about the one or more enrolled biometric features includes data that enables the comparison between the stored information and received biometric information without including enough information to reproduce the enrolled biometric features. In some embodiments, biometric module 109 stores the information about the enrolled biometric features in association with a user account of device 100. In some embodiments, biometric module 109 compares the received biometric information to an enrolled biometric feature to determine whether the received biometric information matches the enrolled biometric feature.

[0108] Contact / motion module 130 optionally detects contact with touch screen 112 (in conjunction with display controller 156) and other touch-sensitive devices (e.g., a touchpad or physical click wheel). Contact / motion module 130 includes various software componentsfor performing various operations related to detection of contact, such as determining if contact has occurred (e.g., detecting a finger-down event), determining an intensity of the contact (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact or a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact), determining if there is movement of the contact and tracking the movement across the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., detecting one or more finger-dragging events), and determining if the contact has ceased (e.g., detecting a finger-up event or a break in contact). Contact / motion module 130 receives contact data from the touch-sensitive surface.Determining movement of the point of contact, which is represented by a series of contact data, optionally includes determining speed (magnitude), velocity (magnitude and direction), and / or an acceleration (a change in magnitude and / or direction) of the point of contact. These operations are, optionally, applied to single contacts (e.g., one finger contacts) or to multiple simultaneous contacts (e.g., “multitouch” / multiple finger contacts). In some embodiments, contact / motion module 130 and display controller 156 detect contact on a touchpad.

[0109] In some embodiments, contact / motion module 130 uses a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an operation has been performed by a user (e.g., to determine whether a user has “clicked” on an icon). In some embodiments, at least a subset of the intensity thresholds are determined in accordance with software parameters (e.g., the intensity thresholds are not determined by the activation thresholds of particular physical actuators and can be adjusted without changing the physical hardware of device 100). For example, a mouse “click” threshold of a trackpad or touch screen display can be set to any of a large range of predefined threshold values without changing the trackpad or touch screen display hardware. Additionally, in some implementations, a user of the device is provided with software settings for adjusting one or more of the set of intensity thresholds (e.g., by adjusting individual intensity thresholds and / or by adjusting a plurality of intensity thresholds at once with a system-level click “intensity” parameter).

[0110] Contact / motion module 130 optionally detects a gesture input by a user. Different gestures on the touch-sensitive surface have different contact patterns (e.g., different motions, timings, and / or intensities of detected contacts). Thus, a gesture is, optionally, detected by detecting a particular contact pattern. For example, detecting a finger tap gesture includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting a finger-up (liftoff) event at the same position (or substantially the same position) as the finger-down event (e.g., at the position of an icon). As another example, detecting a finger swipe gesture on the touch-sensitive surfaceincludes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting one or more finger-dragging events, and subsequently followed by detecting a finger-up (liftoff) event.

[0111] Graphics module 132 includes various known software components for rendering and displaying graphics on touch screen 112 or other display, including components for changing the visual impact (e.g., brightness, transparency, saturation, contrast, or other visual property) of graphics that are displayed. As used herein, the term “graphics” includes any object that can be displayed to a user, including, without limitation, text, web pages, icons (such as user-interface objects including soft keys), digital images, videos, animations, and the like.

[0112] In some embodiments, graphics module 132 stores data representing graphics to be used. Each graphic is, optionally, assigned a corresponding code. Graphics module 132 receives, from applications etc., one or more codes specifying graphics to be displayed along with, if necessary, coordinate data and other graphic property data, and then generates screen image data to output to display controller 156.

[0113] Haptic feedback module 133 includes various software components for generating instructions used by tactile output generator(s) 167 to produce tactile outputs at one or more locations on device 100 in response to user interactions with device 100.

[0114] Text input module 134, which is, optionally, a component of graphics module 132, provides soft keyboards for entering text in various applications (e.g., contacts module 137, e-mail client module 140, IM module 141, browser module 147, and any other application that needs text input).

[0115] GPS module 135 determines the location of the device and provides this information for use in various applications (e.g., to telephone module 138 for use in locationbased dialing; to camera module 143 as picture / video metadata; and to applications that provide location-based services such as weather widgets, local yellow page widgets, and map / navigation widgets).

[0116] Authentication module 105 determines whether a requested operation (e.g., requested by an application of applications 136) is authorized to be performed. In some embodiments, authentication module 105 receives for an operation to be perform that optionally requires authentication. Authentication module 105 determines whether theoperation is authorized to be performed, such as based on a series of factors, including the lock status of device 100, the location of device 100, whether a security delay has elapsed, whether received biometric information matches enrolled biometric features, and / or other factors. Once authentication module 105 determines that the operation is authorized to be performed, authentication module 105 triggers performance of the operation.

[0136] Each of the above-identified modules and applications corresponds to a set of executable instructions for performing one or more functions described above and the methods described in this application (e.g., the computer-implemented methods and other information processing methods described herein). These modules (e.g., sets of instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs (such as computer programs (e.g., including instructions)), procedures, or modules, and thus various subsets of these modules are, optionally, combined or otherwise rearranged in various embodiments. For example, video player module is, optionally, combined with music player module into a single module (e.g., video and music player module 152, FIG. 1A). In some embodiments, memory 102 optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Furthermore, memory 102 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.

[0137] In some embodiments, device 100 is a device where operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively through a touch screen and / or a touchpad. By using a touch screen and / or a touchpad as the primary input control device for operation of device 100, the number of physical input control devices (such as push buttons, dials, and the like) on device 100 is, optionally, reduced.

[0138] The predefined set of functions that are performed exclusively through a touch screen and / or a touchpad optionally include navigation between user interfaces. In some embodiments, the touchpad, when touched by the user, navigates device 100 to a main, home, or root menu from any user interface that is displayed on device 100. In such embodiments, a “menu button” is implemented using a touchpad. In some other embodiments, the menu button is a physical push button or other physical input control device instead of a touchpad.

[0139] FIG. IB is a block diagram illustrating exemplary components for event handling in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, memory 102 (FIG. 1A) or 370 (FIG. 3A) includes event sorter 170 (e.g., in operating system 126) and a respective application 136-1 (e.g., any of the aforementioned applications 137-151, 155, 380-390).

[0140] Event sorter 170 receives event information and determines the application 136-1 and application view 191 of application 136-1 to which to deliver the event information. Event sorter 170 includes event monitor 171 and event dispatcher module 174. In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes application internal state 192, which indicates the current application view(s) 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 sorter 170 to determine which application(s) is (are) currently active, and application internal state 192 is used by event sorter 170 to determine application views 191 to which to deliver event information.

[0141] In some embodiments, application internal state 192 includes additional information, such as one or more of: resume information to be used when application 136-1 resumes execution, user interface state information that indicates information being displayed or that is ready for display by application 136-1, a state queue for enabling the user to go back to a prior state or view of application 136-1, and a redo / undo queue of previous actions taken by the user.

[0142] Event monitor 171 receives event information from peripherals interface 118. Event information includes information about a sub-event (e.g., a user touch on touch- sensitive display 112, as part of a multi-touch gesture). Peripherals interface 118 transmits information it receives from VO subsystem 106 or a sensor, such as proximity sensor 166, accelerometer(s) 168, and / or microphone 113 (through audio circuitry 110). Information that peripherals interface 118 receives from I / O subsystem 106 includes information from touch- sensitive display 112 or a touch-sensitive surface.

[0143] In some embodiments, event monitor 171 sends requests to the peripherals interface 118 at predetermined intervals. In response, peripherals interface 118 transmits event information. In other embodiments, peripherals interface 118 transmits event information only when there is a significant event (e.g., receiving an input above a predetermined noise threshold and / or for more than a predetermined duration).

[0144] In some embodiments, event sorter 170 also includes a hit view determination module 172 and / or an active event recognizer determination module 173.

[0145] Hit view determination module 172 provides software procedures for determining where a sub-event has taken place within one or more views when touch-sensitive display 112 displays more than one view. Views are made up of controls and other elements that a user can see on the display.

[0146] Another aspect of the user interface associated with an application is a set of views, sometimes herein called application views or user interface windows, in which information is displayed and touch-based gestures occur. The application views (of a respective application) in which a touch is detected optionally correspond to programmatic levels within a programmatic or view hierarchy of the application. For example, the lowest level view in which a touch is detected is, optionally, called the hit view, and the set of events that are recognized as proper inputs are, optionally, determined based, at least in part, on the hit view of the initial touch that begins a touch-based gesture.

[0147] Hit view determination module 172 receives information related to sub-events of a touch-based gesture. When an application has multiple views organized in a hierarchy, hit view determination module 172 identifies a hit view as the lowest view in the hierarchy which should handle the sub-event. In most circumstances, the hit view is the lowest level view in which an initiating sub-event occurs (e.g., the first sub-event in the sequence of subevents that form an event or potential event). Once the hit view is identified by the hit view determination module 172, the hit view typically receives all sub-events related to the same touch or input source for which it was identified as the hit view.

[0148] Active event recognizer determination module 173 determines which view or views within a 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 a sub-event are actively involved views, and therefore determines that all actively involved views should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, even if touch sub-events were entirely confined to the area associated with one particular view, views higher in the hierarchy would still remain as actively involved views.

[0149] Event dispatcher module 174 dispatches the event information to an event recognizer (e.g., event recognizer 180). In embodiments including active event recognizer determination module 173, event dispatcher module 174 delivers the event information to an event recognizer determined by active event recognizer determination module 173. In some embodiments, event dispatcher module 174 stores in an event queue the event information, which is retrieved by a respective event receiver 182.

[0150] In some embodiments, operating system 126 includes event sorter 170. Alternatively, application 136-1 includes event sorter 170. In yet other embodiments, event sorter 170 is a stand-alone module, or a part of another module stored in memory 102, such as contact / motion module 130.

[0151] In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes a plurality of event handlers 190 and one or more application views 191, each of which includes instructions for handling touch events that occur within a respective view of the application’s user interface. Each application view 191 of the application 136-1 includes one or more event recognizers 180. Typically, a respective application view 191 includes a plurality of event recognizers 180. In other embodiments, one or more of event recognizers 180 are part of a separate module, such as a user interface kit or a higher level object from which application 136-1 inherits methods and other properties. In some embodiments, a respective event handler 190 includes one or more of: data updater 176, object updater 177, GUI updater 178, and / or event data 179 received from event sorter 170. Event handler 190 optionally utilizes or calls data updater176, object updater 177, or GUI updater 178 to update the application internal state 192. Alternatively, one or more of the application views 191 include one or more respective event handlers 190. Also, in some embodiments, one or more of data updater 176, object updater177, and GUI updater 178 are included in a respective application view 191.

[0152] A respective event recognizer 180 receives event information (e.g., event data 179) from event sorter 170 and identifies an event from the event information. Event recognizer 180 includes event receiver 182 and event comparator 184. In some embodiments, event recognizer 180 also includes at least a subset of: metadata 183, and event delivery instructions 188 (which optionally include sub-event delivery instructions).

[0153] Event receiver 182 receives event information from event sorter 170. The event information includes information about a sub-event, for example, a touch or a touchmovement. Depending on the sub-event, the event information also includes additional information, such as location of the sub-event. When the sub-event concerns motion of a touch, the event information optionally also includes speed and direction of the sub-event. In some embodiments, events include rotation of the device from one orientation to another (e.g., from a portrait orientation to a landscape orientation, or vice versa), and the event information includes corresponding information about the current orientation (also called device attitude) of the device.

[0154] Event comparator 184 compares the event information to predefined event or subevent definitions and, based on the comparison, determines an event or sub-event, or determines or updates the state of an event or sub-event. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 includes event definitions 186. Event definitions 186 contain definitions of events (e.g., predefined sequences of sub-events), for example, event 1 (187-1), event 2 (187- 2), and others. In some embodiments, sub-events in an event (e.g., 187-1 and / or 187-2) include, for example, touch begin, touch end, touch movement, touch cancellation, and multiple touching. In one example, the definition for event 1 (187-1) is a double tap on a displayed object. The double tap, for example, comprises a first touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a first liftoff (touch end) for a predetermined phase, a second touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, and a second liftoff (touch end) for a predetermined phase. In another example, the definition for event 2 (187-2) is a dragging on a displayed object. The dragging, for example, comprises a touch (or contact) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a movement of the touch across touch- sensitive display 112, and liftoff of the touch (touch end). In some embodiments, the event also includes information for one or more associated event handlers 190.

[0155] In some embodiments, event definitions 186 include a definition of an event for a respective 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 in which three user-interface objects are displayed 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 respective event handler 190, the event comparator uses the result of the hit test to determine which event handler 190should be activated. For example, event comparator 184 selects an event handler associated with the sub-event and the object triggering the hit test.

[0156] In some embodiments, the definition for a respective event (187) also includes delayed actions that delay delivery of the event information until after it has been determined whether the sequence of sub-events does or does not correspond to the event recognizer’s event type.

[0157] When a respective event recognizer 180 determines that the series of sub-events do not match any of the events in event definitions 186, the respective event recognizer 180 enters an event impossible, event failed, or event ended state, after which it disregards subsequent sub-events of the touch-based gesture. In this situation, other event recognizers, if any, that remain active for the hit view continue to track and process sub-events of an ongoing touch-based gesture.

[0158] In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 includes metadata 183 with configurable properties, flags, and / or lists that indicate how the event delivery system should perform sub-event delivery to actively involved event recognizers. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and / or lists that indicate how event recognizers interact, or are enabled to interact, with one another. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and / or lists that indicate whether sub-events are delivered to varying levels in the view or programmatic hierarchy.

[0159] In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 activates event handler 190 associated with an event when one or more particular sub-events of an event are recognized. In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 delivers event information associated with the event to event handler 190. Activating an event handler 190 is distinct from sending (and deferred sending) sub-events to a respective hit view. In some embodiments, event recognizer 180 throws a flag associated with the recognized event, and event handler 190 associated with the flag catches the flag and performs a predefined process.

[0160] In some embodiments, event delivery instructions 188 include sub-event delivery instructions that deliver event information about a sub-event without activating an event handler. Instead, the sub-event delivery instructions deliver event information to event handlers associated with the series of sub-events or to actively involved views. Eventhandlers associated with the series of sub-events or with actively involved views receive the event information and perform a predetermined process.

[0161] In some embodiments, data updater 176 creates and updates data used in application 136-1. For example, data updater 176 updates the telephone number used in contacts module 137, or stores a video file 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 a new user-interface object or updates the position of a user-interface object. GUI updater 178 updates the GUI. For example, GUI updater 178 prepares display information and sends it to graphics module 132 for display on a touch- sensitive display.

[0162] In some embodiments, event handler(s) 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 a respective application 136-1 or application view 191. In other embodiments, they are included in two or more software modules.

[0163] It shall be understood that the foregoing discussion regarding event handling of user touches on touch-sensitive displays also applies to other forms of user inputs to operate multifunction devices 100 with input devices, not all of which are initiated on touch screens. For example, mouse movement and mouse button presses, optionally coordinated with single or multiple keyboard presses or holds; contact movements such as taps, drags, scrolls, etc. on touchpads; pen stylus inputs; movement of the device; oral instructions; detected eye movements; biometric inputs; and / or any combination thereof are optionally utilized as inputs corresponding to sub-events which define an event to be recognized.

[0164] FIG. 2 illustrates a portable multifunction device 100 having a touch screen 112 in accordance with some embodiments. The touch screen optionally displays one or more graphics within user interface (UI) 200. In this embodiment, as well as others described below, a user is enabled to select one or more of the graphics by making a gesture on the graphics, for example, with one or more fingers 202 (not drawn to scale in the figure) or one or more styluses 203 (not drawn to scale in the figure). In some embodiments, selection of one or more graphics occurs when the user breaks contact with the one or more graphics. In some embodiments, the gesture optionally includes one or more taps, one or more swipes(from left to right, right to left, upward and / or downward), and / or a rolling of a finger (from right to left, left to right, upward and / or downward) that has made contact with device 100. In some implementations or circumstances, inadvertent contact with a graphic does not select the graphic. For example, a swipe gesture that sweeps over an application icon optionally does not select the corresponding application when the gesture corresponding to selection is a tap.

[0165] Device 100 optionally also include one or more physical buttons, such as “home” or menu button 204. As described previously, menu button 204 is, optionally, used to navigate to any application 136 in a set of applications that are, optionally, executed on device 100. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the menu button is implemented as a soft key in a GUI displayed on touch screen 112.

[0166] In some embodiments, device 100 includes touch screen 112, menu button 204, push button 206 for powering the device on / off and locking the device, volume adjustment button(s) 208, subscriber identity module (SIM) card slot 210, headset jack 212, and docking / charging external port 124. Push button 206 is, optionally, used to turn the power on / off on the device by depressing the button and holding the button in the depressed state for a predefined time interval; to lock the device by depressing the button and releasing the button before the predefined time interval has elapsed; and / or to unlock the device or initiate an unlock process. In an alternative embodiment, device 100 also accepts verbal input for activation or deactivation of some functions through microphone 113. Device 100 also, optionally, includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 for detecting intensity of contacts on touch screen 112 and / or one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile outputs for a user of device 100.

[0167] FIG. 3 A is a block diagram of an exemplary multifunction device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface in accordance with some embodiments. Device 300 need not be portable. In some embodiments, device 300 is a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a tablet computer, a multimedia player device, a navigation device, an educational device (such as a child’s learning toy), a gaming system, or a control device (e.g., a home or industrial controller). Device 300 typically includes one or more processing units (CPUs) 310, one or more network or other communications interfaces 360, memory 370, and one or more communication buses 320 for interconnecting these components. Communication buses 320 optionally include circuitry (sometimes called a chipset) that interconnects and controlscommunications between system components. Device 300 includes input / output (I / O) interface 330 comprising display 340, which is typically a touch screen display. I / O interface 330 also optionally includes a keyboard and / or mouse (or other pointing device) 350 and touchpad 355, tactile output generator 357 for generating tactile outputs on device 300 (e.g., similar to tactile output generator(s) 167 described above with reference to FIG. 1 A), sensors 359 (e.g., optical, acceleration, proximity, touch-sensitive, and / or contact intensity sensors similar to contact intensity sensor(s) 165 described above with reference to FIG. 1 A). Memory 370 includes high-speed random access memory, such as DRAM, SRAM, DDR RAM, or other random access solid state memory devices; and optionally includes nonvolatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, optical disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid state storage devices. Memory 370 optionally includes one or more storage devices remotely located from CPU(s) 310. In some embodiments, memory 370 stores programs, modules, and data structures analogous to the programs, modules, and data structures stored in memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100 (FIG. 1 A), or a subset thereof. Furthermore, 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 drawing module 380, presentation module 382, word processing module 384, website creation module 386, disk authoring module 388, and / or spreadsheet module 390, while memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100 (FIG. 1 A) optionally does not store these modules.

[0168] Each of the above-identified elements in FIG. 3 A is, optionally, stored in one or more of the previously mentioned memory devices. Each of the above-identified modules corresponds to a set of instructions for performing a function described above. The aboveidentified modules or computer programs (e.g., sets of instructions or including instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs (such as computer programs (e.g., including instructions)), procedures, or modules, and thus various subsets of these modules are, optionally, combined or otherwise rearranged in various embodiments. In some embodiments, memory 370 optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Furthermore, memory 370 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.

[0169] Implementations within the scope of the present disclosure can be partially or entirely realized using a tangible computer-readable storage medium (or multiple tangiblecomputer-readable storage media of one or more types) encoding one or more computer- readable instructions. It should be recognized that computer-readable instructions can be organized in any format, including applications, widgets, processes, software, and / or components.

[0170] Implementations within the scope of the present disclosure include a computer- readable storage medium that encodes instructions organized as an application (e.g., application 3160) that, when executed by one or more processing units, control an electronic device (e.g., device 3150) to perform the method of FIG. 3B, the method of FIG. 3C, and / or one or more other processes and / or methods described herein.

[0171] It should be recognized that application 3160 (shown in FIG. 3D) can be any suitable type of application, including, for example, one or more of: a browser application, an application that functions as an execution environment for plug-ins, widgets or other applications, a fitness application, a health application, a digital payments application, a media application, a social network application, a messaging application, and / or a maps application. In some embodiments, application 3160 is an application that is pre-installed on device 3150 at purchase (e.g., a first-party application). In some embodiments, application 3160 is an application that is provided to device 3150 via an operating system update file (e.g., a first-party application or a second-party application). In some embodiments, application 3160 is an application that is provided via an application store. In some embodiments, the application store can be an application store that is pre-installed on device 3150 at purchase (e.g., a first-party application store). In some embodiments, the application store is a third-party application store (e.g., an application store that is provided by another application store, downloaded via a network, and / or read from a storage device).

[0172] Referring to FIG. 3B and FIG. 3F, application 3160 obtains information (e.g., 3010). In some embodiments, at 3010, information is obtained from at least one hardware component of device 3150. In some embodiments, at 3010, information is obtained from at least one software module of device 3150. In some embodiments, at 3010, information is obtained from at least one hardware component external to device 3150 (e.g., a peripheral device, an accessory device, and / or a server). In some embodiments, the information obtained at 3010 includes positional information, time information, notification information, user information, environment information, electronic device state information, weather information, media information, historical information, event information, hardwareinformation, and / or motion information. In some embodiments, in response to and / or after obtaining the information at 3010, application 3160 provides the information to a system (e.g., 3020).

[0173] In some embodiments, the system (e.g., 3110 shown in FIG. 3E) is an operating system hosted on device 3150. In some embodiments, the system (e.g., 3110 shown in FIG. 3E) is an external device (e.g., a server, a peripheral device, an accessory, and / or a personal computing device) that includes an operating system.

[0174] Referring to FIG. 3C and FIG. 3G, application 3160 obtains information (e.g., 3030). In some embodiments, the information obtained at 3030 includes positional information, time information, notification information, user information, environment information electronic device state information, weather information, media information, historical information, event information, hardware information, and / or motion information. In response to and / or after obtaining the information at 3030, application 3160 performs an operation with the information (e.g., 3040). In some embodiments, the operation performed at 3040 includes: providing a notification based on the information, sending a message based on the information, displaying the information, controlling a user interface of a fitness application based on the information, controlling a user interface of a health application based on the information, controlling a focus mode based on the information, setting a reminder based on the information, adding a calendar entry based on the information, and / or calling an API of system 3110 based on the information.

[0175] In some embodiments, one or more steps of the method of FIG. 3B and / or the method of FIG. 3C is performed in response to a trigger. In some embodiments, the trigger includes detection of an event, a notification received from system 3110, a user input, and / or a response to a call to an API provided by system 3110.

[0176] In some embodiments, the instructions of application 3160, when executed, control device 3150 to perform the method of FIG. 3B and / or the method of FIG. 3C by calling an application programming interface (API) (e.g., API 3190) provided by system 3110. In some embodiments, application 3160 performs at least a portion of the method of FIG. 3B and / or the method of FIG. 3C without calling API 3190.

[0177] In some embodiments, one or more steps of the method of FIG. 3B and / or the method of FIG. 3C includes calling an API (e.g., API 3190) using one or more parametersdefined by the API. In some embodiments, the one or more parameters include a constant, a key, a data structure, an object, an object class, a variable, a data type, a pointer, an array, a list or a pointer to a function or method, and / or another way to reference a data or other item to be passed via the API.

[0178] Referring to FIG. 3D, device 3150 is illustrated. In some embodiments, device 3150 is a personal computing device, a smart phone, a smart watch, a fitness tracker, a head mounted display (HMD) device, a media device, a communal device, a speaker, a television, and / or a tablet. As illustrated in FIG. 3D, device 3150 includes application 3160 and an operating system (e.g., system 3110 shown in FIG. 3E). Application 3160 includes application implementation module 3170 and API-calling module 3180. System 3110 includes API 3190 and implementation module 3100. It should be recognized that device 3150, application 3160, and / or system 3110 can include more, fewer, and / or different components than illustrated in FIGS. 3D and 3E.

[0179] In some embodiments, application implementation module 3170 includes a set of one or more instructions corresponding to one or more operations performed by application 3160. For example, when application 3160 is a messaging application, application implementation module 3170 can include operations to receive and send messages. In some embodiments, application implementation module 3170 communicates with API-calling module 3180 to communicate with system 3110 via API 3190 (shown in FIG. 3E).

[0180] In some embodiments, API 3190 is a software module (e.g., a collection of computer-readable instructions) that provides an interface that allows a different module (e.g., API-calling module 3180) to access and / or use one or more functions, methods, procedures, data structures, classes, and / or other services provided by implementation module 3100 of system 3110. For example, API-calling module 3180 can access a feature of implementation module 3100 through one or more API calls or invocations (e.g., embodied by a function or a method call) exposed by API 3190 (e.g., a software and / or hardware module that can receive API calls, respond to API calls, and / or send API calls) and can pass data and / or control information using one or more parameters via the API calls or invocations. In some embodiments, API 3190 allows application 3160 to use a service provided by a Software Development Kit (SDK) library. In some embodiments, application 3160 incorporates a call to a function or method provided by the SDK library and provided by API 3190 or uses data types or objects defined in the SDK library and provided by API3190. In some embodiments, API-calling module 3180 makes an API call via API 3190 to access and use a feature of implementation module 3100 that is specified by API 3190. In such embodiments, implementation module 3100 can return a value via API 3190 to API- calling module 3180 in response to the API call. The value can report to application 3160 the capabilities or state of a hardware component of device 3150, including those related to aspects such as input capabilities and state, output capabilities and state, processing capability, power state, storage capacity and state, and / or communications capability. In some embodiments, API 3190 is implemented in part by firmware, microcode, or other low level logic that executes in part on the hardware component.

[0181] In some embodiments, API 3190 allows a developer of API-calling module 3180 (which can be a third-party developer) to leverage a feature provided by implementation module 3100. In such embodiments, there can be one or more API-calling modules (e.g., including API-calling module 3180) that communicate with implementation module 3100. In some embodiments, API 3190 allows multiple API-calling modules written in different programming languages to communicate with implementation module 3100 (e.g., API 3190 can include features for translating calls and returns between implementation module 3100 and API-calling module 3180) while API 3190 is implemented in terms of a specific programming language. In some embodiments, API-calling module 3180 calls APIs from different providers such as a set of APIs from an OS provider, another set of APIs from a plug-in provider, and / or another set of APIs from another provider (e.g., the provider of a software library) or creator of the another set of APIs.

[0182] Examples of API 3190 can include one or more of: a pairing API (e.g., for establishing secure connection, e.g., with an accessory), a device detection API (e.g., for locating nearby devices, e.g., media devices and / or smartphone), a payment API, a UIKit API (e.g., for generating user interfaces), a location detection API, a locator API, a maps API, a health sensor API, a sensor API, a messaging API, a push notification API, a streaming API, a collaboration API, a video conferencing API, an application store API, an advertising services API, a web browser API (e.g., WebKit API), a vehicle API, a networking API, a WiFi API, a Bluetooth API, an NFC API, a UWB API, a fitness API, a smart home API, contact transfer API, photos API, camera API, and / or image processing API. In some embodiments, the sensor API is an API for accessing data associated with a sensor of device 3150. For example, the sensor API can provide access to raw sensor data. For anotherexample, the sensor API can provide data derived (and / or generated) from the raw sensor data. In some embodiments, the sensor data includes temperature data, image data, video data, audio data, heart rate data, IMU (inertial measurement unit) data, lidar data, location data, GPS data, and / or camera data. In some embodiments, the sensor includes one or more of an accelerometer, temperature sensor, infrared sensor, optical sensor, heartrate sensor, barometer, gyroscope, proximity sensor, temperature sensor, and / or biometric sensor.

[0183] In some embodiments, implementation module 3100 is a system (e.g., operating system and / or server system) software module (e.g., a collection of computer-readable instructions) that is constructed to perform an operation in response to receiving an API call via API 3190. In some embodiments, implementation module 3100 is constructed to provide an API response (via API 3190) as a result of processing an API call. By way of example, implementation module 3100 and API-calling module 3180 can each be any one of an operating system, a library, a device driver, an API, an application program, or other module. It should be understood that implementation module 3100 and API-calling module 3180 can be the same or different type of module from each other. In some embodiments, implementation module 3100 is embodied at least in part in firmware, microcode, or hardware logic.

[0184] In some embodiments, implementation module 3100 returns a value through API 3190 in response to an API call from API-calling module 3180. While API 3190 defines the syntax and result of an API call (e.g., how to invoke the API call and what the API call does), API 3190 might not reveal how implementation module 3100 accomplishes the function specified by the API call. Various API calls are transferred via the one or more application programming interfaces between API-calling module 3180 and implementation module 3100. Transferring the API calls can include issuing, initiating, invoking, calling, receiving, returning, and / or responding to the function calls or messages. In other words, transferring can describe actions by either of API-calling module 3180 or implementation module 3100. In some embodiments, a function call or other invocation of API 3190 sends and / or receives one or more parameters through a parameter list or other structure.

[0185] In some embodiments, implementation module 3100 provides more than one API, each providing a different view of or with different aspects of functionality implemented by implementation module 3100. For example, one API of implementation module 3100 can provide a first set of functions and can be exposed to third-party developers, and another APIof implementation module 3100 can be hidden (e.g., not exposed) and provide a subset of the first set of functions and also provide another set of functions, such as testing or debugging functions which are not in the first set of functions. In some embodiments, implementation module 3100 calls one or more other components via an underlying API and thus is both an API-calling module and an implementation module. It should be recognized that implementation module 3100 can include additional functions, methods, classes, data structures, and / or other features that are not specified through API 3190 and are not available to API-calling module 3180. It should also be recognized that API-calling module 3180 can be on the same system as implementation module 3100 or can be located remotely and access implementation module 3100 using API 3190 over a network. In some embodiments, implementation module 3100, API 3190, and / or API-calling module 3180 is stored in a machine-readable medium, which includes any mechanism for storing information in a form readable by a machine (e.g., a computer or other data processing system). For example, a machine-readable medium can include magnetic disks, optical disks, random access memory; read only memory, and / or flash memory devices.

[0186] An application programming interface (API) is an interface between a first software process and a second software process that specifies a format for communication between the first software process and the second software process. Limited APIs (e.g., private APIs or partner APIs) are APIs that are accessible to a limited set of software processes (e.g., only software processes within an operating system or only software processes that are approved to access the limited APIs). Public APIs that are accessible to a wider set of software processes. Some APIs enable software processes to communicate about or set a state of one or more input devices (e.g., one or more touch sensors, proximity sensors, visual sensors, motion / orientation sensors, pressure sensors, intensity sensors, sound sensors, wireless proximity sensors, biometric sensors, buttons, switches, rotatable elements, and / or external controllers). Some APIs enable software processes to communicate about and / or set a state of one or more output generation components (e.g., one or more audio output generation components, one or more display generation components, and / or one or more tactile output generation components). Some APIs enable particular capabilities (e.g., scrolling, handwriting, text entry, image editing, and / or image creation) to be accessed, performed, and / or used by a software process (e.g., generating outputs for use by a software process based on input from the software process). Some APIs enable content from asoftware process to be inserted into a template and displayed in a user interface that has a layout and / or behaviors that are specified by the template.

[0187] Many software platforms include a set of frameworks that provides the core objects and core behaviors that a software developer needs to build software applications that can be used on the software platform. Software developers use these objects to display content onscreen, to interact with that content, and to manage interactions with the software platform. Software applications rely on the set of frameworks for their basic behavior, and the set of frameworks provides many ways for the software developer to customize the behavior of the application to match the specific needs of the software application. Many of these core objects and core behaviors are accessed via an API. An API will typically specify a format for communication between software processes, including specifying and grouping available variables, functions, and protocols. An API call (sometimes referred to as an API request) will typically be sent from a sending software process to a receiving software process as a way to accomplish one or more of the following: the sending software process requesting information from the receiving software process (e.g., for the sending software process to take action on), the sending software process providing information to the receiving software process (e.g., for the receiving software process to take action on), the sending software process requesting action by the receiving software process, or the sending software process providing information to the receiving software process about action taken by the sending software process. Interaction with a device (e.g., using a user interface) will in some circumstances include the transfer and / or receipt of one or more API calls (e.g., multiple API calls) between multiple different software processes (e.g., different portions of an operating system, an application and an operating system, or different applications) via one or more APIs (e.g., via multiple different APIs). For example, when an input is detected the direct sensor data is frequently processed into one or more input events that are provided (e.g., via an API) to a receiving software process that makes some determination based on the input events, and then sends (e.g., via an API) information to a software process to perform an operation (e.g., change a device state and / or user interface) based on the determination. While a determination and an operation performed in response could be made by the same software process, alternatively the determination could be made in a first software process and relayed (e.g., via an API) to a second software process, that is different from the first software process, that causes the operation to be performed by the second software process. Alternatively, the second software process could relay instructions (e.g., via an API) to a thirdsoftware process that is different from the first software process and / or the second software process to perform the operation. It should be understood that some or all user interactions with a computer system could involve one or more API calls within a step of interacting with the computer system (e.g., between different software components of the computer system or between a software component of the computer system and a software component of one or more remote computer systems). It should be understood that some or all user interactions with a computer system could involve one or more API calls between steps of interacting with the computer system (e.g., between different software components of the computer system or between a software component of the computer system and a software component of one or more remote computer systems).

[0188] In some embodiments, the application can be any suitable type of application, including, for example, one or more of: a browser application, an application that functions as an execution environment for plug-ins, widgets or other applications, a fitness application, a health application, a digital payments application, a media application, a social network application, a messaging application, and / or a maps application.

[0189] In some embodiments, the application is an application that is pre-installed on the first computer system at purchase (e.g., a first-party application). In some embodiments, the application is an application that is provided to the first computer system via an operating system update file (e.g., a first-party application). In some embodiments, the application is an application that is provided via an application store. In some embodiments, the application store is pre-installed on the first computer system at purchase (e.g., a first-party application store) and allows download of one or more applications. In some embodiments, the application store is a third-party application store (e.g., an application store that is provided by another device, downloaded via a network, and / or read from a storage device). In some embodiments, the application is a third-party application (e.g., an app that is provided by an application store, downloaded via a network, and / or read from a storage device). In some embodiments, the application controls the first computer system to perform methods 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500 and / or 1700 (FIGS. 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, and / or 17) by calling an application programming interface (API) provided by the system process using one or more parameters.

[0190] In some embodiments, exemplary APIs provided by the system process include one or more of: a pairing API (e.g., for establishing secure connection, e.g., with anaccessory), a device detection API (e.g., for locating nearby devices, e.g., media devices and / or smartphone), a payment API, a UIKit API (e.g., for generating user interfaces), a location detection API, a locator API, a maps API, a health sensor API, a sensor API, a messaging API, a push notification API, a streaming API, a collaboration API, a video conferencing API, an application store API, an advertising services API, a web browser API (e.g., WebKit API), a vehicle API, a networking API, a WiFi API, a Bluetooth API, an NFC API, a UWB API, a fitness API, a smart home API, contact transfer API, a photos API, a camera API, and / or an image processing API.

[0191] In some embodiments, at least one API is a software module (e.g., a collection of computer-readable instructions) that provides an interface that allows a different module (e.g., API-calling module 3180) to access and use one or more functions, methods, procedures, data structures, classes, and / or other services provided by an implementation module of the system process. The API can define one or more parameters that are passed between the API-calling module and the implementation module. In some embodiments, API 3190 defines a first API call that can be provided by API-calling module 3180. The implementation module is a system software module (e.g., a collection of computer-readable instructions) that is constructed to perform an operation in response to receiving an API call via the API. In some embodiments, the implementation module is constructed to provide an API response (via the API) as a result of processing an API call. In some embodiments, the implementation module is included in the device (e.g., 3150) that runs the application. In some embodiments, the implementation module is included in an electronic device that is separate from the device that runs the application.

[0192] Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces that are, optionally, implemented on, for example, portable multifunction device 100.

[0193] FIG. 4A illustrates an exemplary user interface for a menu of applications on portable multifunction device 100 in accordance with some embodiments. Similar user interfaces are, optionally, implemented on device 300. In some embodiments, user interface 400 includes the following elements, or a subset or superset thereof:• Signal strength indicator(s) 402 for wireless communication(s), such as cellular and Wi-Fi signals;Time 404;Bluetooth indicator 405;• Battery status indicator 406;• Tray 408 with icons for frequently used applications, such as: o Icon 416 for telephone module 138, labeled “Phone,” which optionally includes an indicator 414 of the number of missed calls or voicemail messages; o Icon 418 for e-mail client module 140, labeled “Mail,” which optionally includes an indicator 410 of the number of unread e-mails; o Icon 420 for browser module 147, labeled “Browser;” and o Icon 422 for video and music player module 152, also referred to as iPod (trademark of Apple Inc.) module 152, labeled “iPod;” and• Icons for other applications, such as: o Icon 424 for IM module 141, labeled “Messages;” o Icon 426 for calendar module 148, labeled “Calendar;” o Icon 428 for image management module 144, labeled “Photos;” o Icon 430 for camera module 143, labeled “Camera;” o Icon 432 for online video module 155, labeled “Online Video;” o Icon 434 for stocks widget 149-2, labeled “Stocks;” o Icon 436 for map module 154, labeled “Maps;” o Icon 438 for weather widget 149-1, labeled “Weather;” o Icon 440 for alarm clock widget 149-4, labeled “Clock;” o Icon 442 for workout support module 142, labeled “Workout Support;” o Icon 444 for notes module 153, labeled “Notes;” and o Icon 446 for a settings application or module, labeled “Settings,” which provides access to settings for device 100 and its various applications 136.

[0194] It should be noted that the icon labels illustrated in FIG. 4A are merely exemplary. For example, icon 422 for video and music player module 152 is labeled “Music” or “Music Player.” Other labels are, optionally, used for various application icons. In some embodiments, a label for a respective application icon includes a name of an application corresponding to the respective application icon. In some embodiments, a label for a particular application icon is distinct from a name of an application corresponding to the particular application icon.

[0195] FIG. 4B illustrates an exemplary user interface on a device (e.g., device 300, FIG. 3 A) with a touch-sensitive surface 451 (e.g., a tablet or touchpad 355, FIG. 3 A) that is separate from the display 450 (e.g., touch screen display 112). Device 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 outputs for a user of device 300.

[0196] Although some of the examples that follow will be given with reference to inputs on touch screen display 112 (where the touch-sensitive surface and the display are combined), in some embodiments, the device detects inputs on a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the display, as shown in FIG. 4B. In some embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., 451 in FIG. 4B) has a primary axis (e.g., 452 in FIG. 4B) that corresponds to a primary axis (e.g., 453 in FIG. 4B) on the display (e.g., 450). In accordance with these embodiments, the device detects contacts (e.g., 460 and 462 in FIG. 4B) with the touch- sensitive surface 451 at locations that correspond to respective locations on the display (e.g., in FIG. 4B, 460 corresponds to 468 and 462 corresponds to 470). In this way, user inputs (e.g., contacts 460 and 462, and movements thereof) detected by the device on the touch- sensitive surface (e.g., 451 in FIG. 4B) are used by the device to manipulate the user interface on the display (e.g., 450 in FIG. 4B) of the multifunction device when the touch-sensitive surface is separate from the display. It should be understood that similar methods are, optionally, used for other user interfaces described herein.

[0197] Additionally, while the following examples are given primarily with reference to finger inputs (e.g., finger contacts, finger tap gestures, finger swipe gestures), it should be understood that, in some embodiments, one or more of the finger inputs are replaced with input from another input device (e.g., a mouse-based input or stylus input). For example, a swipe gesture is, optionally, replaced with a mouse click (e.g., instead of a contact) followedby 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 with a mouse click while the cursor is located over the location of the tap gesture (e.g., instead of detection of the contact followed by ceasing to detect the contact). Similarly, when multiple user inputs are simultaneously detected, it should be understood that multiple computer mice are, optionally, used simultaneously, or a mouse and finger contacts are, optionally, used simultaneously.

[0198] FIG. 5A illustrates exemplary personal electronic device 500. Device 500 includes body 502. In some embodiments, device 500 can include some or all of the features described with respect to devices 100 and 300 (e.g., FIGS. 1 A-4B). In some embodiments, device 500 has touch-sensitive display screen 504, hereafter touch screen 504. Alternatively, or in addition to touch screen 504, device 500 has a display and a touch-sensitive surface. As with devices 100 and 300, in some embodiments, touch screen 504 (or the touch-sensitive surface) optionally includes one or more intensity sensors for detecting intensity of contacts (e.g., touches) being applied. The one or more intensity sensors of touch screen 504 (or the touch-sensitive surface) can provide output data that represents the intensity of touches. The user interface of device 500 can respond to touches based on their intensity, meaning that touches of different intensities can invoke different user interface operations on device 500.

[0199] Exemplary techniques for detecting and processing touch intensity are found, for example, in related applications: International Patent Application Serial No.PCT / US2013 / 040061, titled “Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Displaying User Interface Objects Corresponding to an Application,” filed May 8, 2013, published as WIPO Publication No. WO / 2013 / 169849, and International Patent Application Serial No. PCT / US2013 / 069483, titled “Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Transitioning Between Touch Input to Display Output Relationships,” filed November 11, 2013, published as WIPO Publication No. WO / 2014 / 105276, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.

[0200] In some embodiments, device 500 has one or more input mechanisms 506 and 508. Input mechanisms 506 and 508, if included, can be physical. Examples of physical input mechanisms include push buttons and rotatable mechanisms. In some embodiments, device 500 has one or more attachment mechanisms. Such attachment mechanisms, if included, can permit attachment of device 500 with, for example, hats, eyewear, earrings, necklaces, shirts, jackets, bracelets, watch straps, chains, trousers, belts, shoes, purses,backpacks, and so forth. These attachment mechanisms permit device 500 to be worn by a user.

[0201] FIG. 5B depicts exemplary personal electronic device 500. In some embodiments, device 500 can include some or all of the components described with respect to FIGS. 1 A, IB, and 3 A. Device 500 has bus 512 that operatively couples VO section 514 with one or more computer processors 516 and memory 518. I / O section 514 can be connected to display 504, which can have touch-sensitive component 522 and, optionally, intensity sensor 524 (e.g., contact intensity sensor). In addition, I / O section 514 can be connected with communication unit 530 for receiving application and operating system data, using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, near field communication (NFC), cellular, and / or other wireless communication techniques. Device 500 can include input mechanisms 506 and / or 508. Input mechanism 506 is, optionally, a rotatable input device or a depressible and rotatable input device, for example. Input mechanism 508 is, optionally, a button, in some examples.

[0202] Input mechanism 508 is, optionally, a microphone, in some examples. Personal electronic device 500 optionally includes various sensors, such as GPS sensor 532, accelerometer 534, directional sensor 540 (e.g., compass), gyroscope 536, motion sensor 538, and / or a combination thereof, all of which can be operatively connected to I / O section 514.

[0203] Memory 518 of personal electronic device 500 can include one or more non- transitory computer-readable storage mediums, for storing computer-executable instructions, which, when executed by one or more computer processors 516, for example, can cause the computer processors to perform the techniques described below, including process 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, and 1700 (FIGS. 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, and 17). A computer-readable storage medium can be any medium that can tangibly contain or store computer-executable instructions for use by or in connection with the instruction execution system, apparatus, or device. In some examples, the storage medium is a transitory computer-readable storage medium. In some examples, the storage medium is a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium can include, but is not limited to, magnetic, optical, and / or semiconductor storages. Examples of such storage include magnetic disks, optical discs based on CD, DVD, or Blu-ray technologies, as well as persistent solid-state memory such as flash, solid-state drives, and the like. Personal electronic device 500 is not limited to the components and configuration of FIG. 5B, but can include other or additional components in multiple configurations.

[0204] As used here, the term “affordance” refers to a user-interactive graphical user interface object that is, optionally, displayed on the display screen of devices 100, 300, and / or 500 (FIGS. 1 A, 3A, and 5A-5B). For example, an image (e.g., icon), a button, and text (e.g., hyperlink) each optionally constitute an affordance.

[0205] As used herein, the term “focus selector” refers to an input element that indicates a current part of a user interface with which a user is interacting. In some implementations that include a cursor or other location marker, the cursor acts as a “focus selector” so that when an input (e.g., a press input) is detected on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touchpad 355 in FIG. 3 A or touch-sensitive surface 451 in FIG. 4B) while the cursor is over a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element), the particular user interface element is adjusted in accordance with the detected input. In some implementations that include a touch screen display (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112 in FIG. 1 A or touch screen 112 in FIG. 4 A) that enables direct interaction with user interface elements on the touch screen display, a detected contact on the touch screen acts as a “focus selector” so that when an input (e.g., a press input by the contact) is detected on the touch screen display at a location of a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element), the particular user interface element is adjusted in accordance with the detected input. In some implementations, focus is moved from one region of a user interface to another region of the user interface without corresponding movement of a cursor or movement of a contact on a touch screen display (e.g., by using a tab key or arrow keys to move focus from one button to another button); in these implementations, the focus selector moves in accordance with movement of focus between different regions of the user interface. Without regard to the specific form taken by the focus selector, the focus selector is generally the user interface element (or contact on a touch screen display) that is controlled by the user so as to communicate 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 is intending to interact). For example, the location of a focus selector (e.g., a cursor, a contact, or a selection box) over a respective button while a press input is detected on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchpad or touch screen) will indicate that the user is intending to activate the respective button (as opposed to other user interface elements shown on a display of the device).

[0206] As used in the specification and claims, the term “characteristic intensity” of a contact refers to a characteristic of the contact based on one or more intensities of the contact. In some embodiments, the characteristic intensity is based on multiple intensity samples. The characteristic intensity is, optionally, based on a predefined number of intensity samples, or a set of intensity samples collected during a predetermined time period (e.g., 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10 seconds) relative to a predefined event (e.g., after detecting the contact, prior to detecting liftoff of the contact, before or after detecting a start of movement of the contact, prior to detecting an end of the contact, before or after detecting an increase in intensity of the contact, and / or before or after detecting a decrease in intensity of the contact). A characteristic intensity of a contact is, optionally, based on one or more of a maximum value of the intensities of the contact, a mean value of the intensities of the contact, an average value of the intensities of the contact, a top 10 percentile value of the intensities of the contact, a value at the half maximum of the intensities of the contact, a value at the 90 percent maximum of the intensities of the contact, or the like. In some embodiments, the duration of the contact is used in determining the characteristic intensity (e.g., when the characteristic intensity is an average of the intensity of the contact over time). In some embodiments, the characteristic intensity is compared to a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an operation has been performed by a user. For example, the set of one or more intensity thresholds optionally includes a first intensity threshold and a second intensity threshold. In this example, a contact with a characteristic intensity that does not exceed the first threshold results in a first operation, a contact with a characteristic intensity that exceeds the first intensity threshold and does not exceed the second intensity threshold results in a second operation, and a contact with a characteristic intensity that exceeds the second threshold results in a third operation. In some embodiments, a comparison between the characteristic intensity and one or more thresholds is used to determine whether or not to perform one or more operations (e.g., whether to perform a respective operation or forgo performing the respective operation), rather than being used to determine whether to perform a first operation or a second operation.

[0207] Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces (“U ’) and associated processes that are implemented on an electronic device, such as portable multifunction device 100, device 300, or device 500.

[0208] FIGS. 6A-6X illustrate techniques for displaying background regions for time user interfaces, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 7.

[0209] FIG. 6A illustrates computer system 600, which includes display 602 (e.g., a touch-sensitive display), rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604, and button 606. In FIG. 6A, computer system 600 is a smartwatch. In some embodiments, computer system 600 displays, on display 602, user interface 608a. User interface 608a includes an application that the user is currently using, such as messaging application 610 as shown in FIG. 6A. In some embodiments, computer system 600 receives a request to display a time user interface. The request to display the time user interface is received by way of a user input 612 (e.g., a press or a tap) to rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604. In response to receiving input 612 to rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604, computer system 600 displays user interface 608b (e.g., a time user interface, a watch face user interface, a wake screen, a lock screen, a home screen, and / or a clock user interface) that displays an indication of time, as shown in FIG. 6B. In some embodiments, user interface 608bis a wake screen (e.g., a lock screen and / or an initial user interface) that computer system 600 displays when coming out of a state in which computer system 600 does not receive user inputs or detect the occurrence of one or more conditions that keep the computer system in an active state (e.g., a low-power state, a reduced-power state, a sleep state, and / or a dimmed state). In some embodiments, user interface 608b is a home screen (e.g., user interface 400 or as shown in FIG. 6X) that includes user interface objects corresponding to respective applications and, optionally, an indication of time. A home screen corresponds to a user interface that is initially displayed when computer system 600 is unlocked, wakes from a sleep state, and / or receives a particular input (e.g., a swipe from a specific region on the display or a press of a specific button of computer system 600). The home screen includes affordances for a plurality of applications and functions of computer system 600. The plurality of applications and functions are user- customizable, such that the user of computer system 600 can configure which applications and / or device functions appear on the home screen. When a user interface object (e.g., an application icon or a complication) on the home screen is selected, computer system 600 displays the respective application corresponding to the selected user interface object. In some embodiments, computer system 600 navigates to user interface 608b in response to a variety of different inputs, for example, a press of rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604 while display 602 is displaying a main application page. User interface 608b is alsodisplayed in response to the detection of a wrist-raise gesture or in response to a tap on display 602 (e.g., while computer system 600 is in a low-power state, off state, and / or sleep state).

[0210] FIG. 6B illustrates user interface 608b including an indication of time (e.g., hour hand 614 and minute hand 616) and a plurality of user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d corresponding to respective applications (e.g., selectable complications and / or icons that can be selected to open the respective applications). In some embodiments, the state of computer system 600 while displaying user interface 608b is an active state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state. User interface 608b includes a first background region 620a and a second background region 620b. In some embodiments, first background region 620a corresponds to a representation of a first flower. Second background region 620b corresponds to a representation of a second flower that is relatively smaller and overlaid over first background region 620a. As depicted in FIG. 6B, the second background region includes multiple portions, such as an inner portion of the representation of the second flower (e.g., a pistil and / or stamen) and an outer portion of the representation of the second flower (e.g., petals and / or leaves). The first background region 620a and second background region 620b includes one or more colors. For example, first background region 620a includes the color green and second background region 620b includes the colors red (e.g., corresponding to the inner portion of the representation of the second flower or corresponding to an inner portion of the representation of the second flower) and yellow (e.g., corresponding to the outer portion of the representation of the second flower or corresponding to an outer portion of the representation of the second flower).

[0211] In some embodiments, user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d are displayed with one or more colors that are complimentary to the underlying background region, such as first background region 620a. For example, the color of user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d are displayed with the same general color as first background region 620a (e.g., green, or another color or pattern) and having a darker or lighter shade than the color of first background region 620a (e.g., dark green or light green). User interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d are also displayed with properties that adjust based on the underlying background color, such as tint, brightness, opacity, blur, and / or saturation.

[0212] FIG. 6C illustrates computer system 600 after a first transition to a different power state. For instance, after a period in which computer system 600 does not receive user inputs or detect the occurrence of one or more conditions that keep the computer system in an active state, computer system 600 transitions from the active state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state (e.g., as depicted in FIG. 6B) to a low-power state, off state, and / or sleep state. Computer system 600 also transitions to the low-power state, off state, and / or sleep state in response to detected events such as a wrist-lowering gesture or the covering of display 602 (e.g., by a hand of the user or other object). Accordingly, display 602 transitions to a lower power state than the state depicted in FIG. 6B. When in the lower power state, user interface 608c is displayed with the colors of first background region 620a and second background region 620b being adjusted. In some embodiments, when transitioning to the lower power state, the background regions are adjusted such that various colors of the background regions change to a grayscale color. For example, upon transitioning to the lower power state, the color of first background region 620a is adjusted from green to gray, whereas the color of second background region 620b is also adjusted from red (e.g., corresponding to the inner portion of the representation of the second flower or corresponding to an inner portion of the representation of the second flower) and yellow (e.g., corresponding to the outer portion of the representation of the second flower or corresponding to an outer portion of the representation of the second flower) to gray (e.g., corresponding to both the inner portion and the outer portion of the representation of the second flower or corresponding to a plurality of inner portions and outer portions of the representation of the second flower). While in the lower power state, outlines corresponding to the background regions are depicted. For instance, outline 622a corresponds to an outline of first background region 620a, outline 622b corresponds to an outline of a first portion of second background region 620b (e.g., the outer portion of the representation of the second flower or an outer portion of the representation of the second flower) and outline 622c corresponds to an outline of a second portion of the second background region 620b (e.g., the inner portion of the representation of the second flower or an inner portion of the representation of the second flower). In some embodiments, the displayed color of the various outlines corresponds to the respective background region color prior to computer system 600 entering the lower power state. For example, the color of outline 622a corresponds to green, the color of outline 622b corresponds to yellow, and the color of outline 622c corresponds to red.

[0213] Various visual aspects of the background regions are adjusted upon computer system 600 transitioning to the lower power state. In some embodiments, the background regions are displayed as shrinking and / or rotating upon computer system 600 transitioning to the lower power state. For instance, as shown in FIG. 6C, first background region 620a is displayed as shrinking relative to first background region 620a as shown in FIG. 6B, and similarly, second background region 620b is displayed as shrinking relative to second background region 620b as shown in FIG. 6B.

[0214] FIGS. 6D-6E illustrate a transition (e.g., an animation or other visual depiction) from user interface 608c in FIG. 6C to user interface 608f in FIG. 6F in response to detecting an update event, such as a transition to a different power state. FIG. 6D illustrates computer system 600 during an initial stage in response to detecting the update event. In particular, in response to detecting the update event, computer system 600 transitions to a higher power state than the state of computer system 600 as depicted in FIG. 6C. The update event corresponds to various events, such as a tap on display 602 while computer system 600 is in the lower power state and / or a detected raise gesture while computer system 600 is in the lower power state (e.g., the user raising computer system 600 to view display 602 or the user raising computer system 600 out of a pocket). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the update event, the color of first background region 620a is adjusted and the color of second background region 620b is adjusted. In particular, the color of second background region 620b changes to include one or more new colors. For example, an animation of a new flower (e.g., as shown in second background region 620b in FIG. 6D or in FIG. 6H) growing from the center of user interface 608d is depicted. The new flower includes one or more colors, such as the color corresponding to the inner portion of the new flower (e.g., blue, or another color or pattern) and the color corresponding to the outer portion of the new flower (e.g., orange, or another color or pattern). In addition, in response to detecting the update event, the color of first background region 620a changes to a new color corresponding to the color of second background region 620b prior to detecting the update event. Specifically, in this example, the color of first background region 620a changes to the color of the inner portion of the second representation of the flower as depicted in FIG. 6B (e.g., red, or another color or pattern). In some embodiments, first background region 620a includes multiple colors in response to the update event. For example, as first background region 620a is displayed including new flower initially growing from the center of user interface 608d, an additional color is displayed within first background region 620a (e.g., on the outer edges ofuser interface 608d or towards the center of user interface 608d), such as the color of the outer portion of the second representation of the flower as depicted in FIG. 6B (e.g., yellow, or another color or pattern).

[0215] In some embodiments, user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d are not displayed when computer system transitions to a lower power state (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6C or in FIG. 6G). In these cases, user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d are displayed again once computer system 600 transitions back to a higher power state, as depicted in FIG. 6D. Accordingly, the color of user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d are displayed with the same general color as first background region 620a (e.g., yellow, or another color or pattern) and having a darker or lighter shade than the color of first background region 620a (e.g., dark yellow or light yellow). User interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d are displayed with properties that adjust based on the underlying background color, such as a different tint, different brightness, different opacity, different blur, and / or different saturation than the tint, brightness, different opacity, blur, and / or saturation of the user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d as depicted in FIG. 6B.

[0216] FIG. 6E illustrates computer system 600 during a first subsequent stage in response to detecting the update event. In particular, user interface 608e is displayed with a new flower in second background region 620b expanding from the center of user interface 608d. In some embodiments, the new flower in second background region 620b rotates as the new flower is expanding. The rotation and expansion causes portions of the new flower (e.g., edges of the flower petals or edges of other flower portions) to be momentarily not visible as the new flower is displayed as momentarily growing beyond the edges of display 602.

[0217] FIG. 6F illustrates computer system 600 during a second subsequent stage in response to detecting the update event. In some embodiments, after the new flower in second background region 620b of user interface 608f is displayed as initially growing from the center of display 602 (e.g., as depicted in FIG. 6D or in FIG. 6E) and after the new flower is displayed as expanding further outward from the center of display 602 (as depicted in FIG. 6E), the new flower is displayed as shrinking (e.g., relative to the new flower depicted in FIG. 6E) to a smaller size as depicted in FIG. 6F. Accordingly, in FIG. 6F, the color of first background region 620a includes the color (e.g., yellow, or another color or pattern) previously included in second background region 620B (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6B or in FIG.6H), whereas the color of second background region 620b includes one or more new colors corresponding to the new flower (e.g., blue corresponding to the inner portion of the new flower and orange corresponding to the outer portion of the new flower or yellow corresponding to the inner portion of the new flower and purple corresponding to the outer portion of the new flower).

[0218] FIG. 6G illustrates computer system 600 after a second transition to a different power state. For instance, after a period in which computer system 600 does not receive user inputs or detect the occurrence of one or more conditions that keep the computer system in an active state, computer system 600 transitions from the active state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state (as depicted in FIG. 6F) to a low-power state, off state, and / or sleep state. Computer system 600 transitions to the low-power state, off state, and / or sleep state in response to detected events such as a wrist-lowering gesture or the covering of display 602 by a hand of the user. Accordingly, display 602 transitions to a lower power state than the state depicted in FIG. 6F. When in the lower power state, user interface 608g is displayed with the colors of first background region 620a and second background region 620b changing to a grayscale color. For example, upon transitioning to the lower power state, the color of first background region 620a is adjusted from yellow to gray, whereas the color of second background region 620b are also adjusted from the color (e.g., blue, or another color or pattern) corresponding to the inner portion of the representation of the second flower and the color (e.g., orange, or another color or pattern) corresponding to the outer portion of the representation of the second flower to gray (e.g., corresponding to both the inner portion and the outer portion of the representation of the second flower or corresponding to a plurality of inner portions and outer portions).

[0219] While in the lower power state, outlines corresponding to the background regions are depicted. For instance, outline 622b corresponds to an outline of a first portion of second background region 620b (e.g., the outer portion of the representation of the new flower or an outer portion of the representation of the new flower) and outline 622c corresponds to an outline of a second portion of the second background region 620b (e.g., the inner portion of the representation of the new flower or an inner portion of the representation of the new flower). In some embodiments, the displayed color of the various outlines corresponds to the respective background region color prior to computer system 600 entering the lower power state. For example, the color of outline 622b corresponds to orange and the color of outline622c corresponds to blue. In some embodiments, as depicted in FIG. 6G, the edges of the flower corresponding to background region 620a extend beyond the displayable area of display 602, such that outlines of background region 620a are not displayed. Outlines 622b and 622c are displayed as smaller than the corresponding outlines prior to the transition to the lower power state (e.g., as depicted in FIG. 6B or in FIG. 6F) in order to display the flower as shrinking in size upon transition to the lower power state.

[0220] FIG. 6H illustrates computer system 600 after detecting a second update event. In particular, in response to detecting an update event, first background region 620a is displayed with at least one new color relative to the color(s) previously displayed in first background region 620a (e.g., as depicted in FIGS. 6D-6F). In particular, in response to detecting events such as a user tapping on display 602 while computer system 600 is in the lower power state and / or a detected raise gesture while computer system 600 is in the lower power state (e.g., the user raising computer system 600 to view display 602 or the user moving computer system 600 out of a pocket) first background region 620a is displayed with a new color. The new color corresponds to the color of second background region 620b prior to transition to the lower power state (e.g., the color of the outer portion of the representation of the second flower a depicted in FIG. 6B or the color of the outer portion of the representation of the second flower a depicted in FIG. 6F). Second background region 620b is displayed with colors representing a new flower, such as the color corresponding to an inner portion of the newly displayed flower (e.g., green, or another color or pattern) and a color corresponding to an outer portion of the newly displayed flower (e.g., purple, or another color or pattern).

[0221] In some embodiments, the new flower is generated and displayed in response to a transition to the lower power state (e.g., as opposed to being displayed in response to a transition to a higher power state as described with respect to FIGS. 6A-6G). For example, a specific flower type is depicted when computer system 600 is in a higher power state. Once computer system 600 transitions to the lower power state, display 602 is updated to include a new flower with grayscale interior and colored outlines. When computer system 600 transitions to the higher power state, display 602 is updated to depict the new flower with interior portions filled in with the respective colors base on the colored outlines.

[0222] While computer system 600 is in the active state, the user provides an input 624 (e.g., a tap input, a press and hold input, and / or other input) to navigate to an editing user interface as depicted in FIGS. 6I-6R. FIG. 61 illustrates computer system 600 displaying anediting user interface 626a. In some embodiments, editing user interface 626 is displayed in response to input 624. Once the user has navigated to editing user interface 626, the user performs swipe left and / or swipe right gestures on display 602 to navigate through different time user interface designs to be displayed via display 602. Once the user has selected a desired display design, the user navigates to a specific time user interface editing interface by selecting edit element 628.

[0223] FIG. 6J illustrates computer system 600 displaying user interface element editing interface 626b. In some embodiments, user interface element editing interface 626b is displayed in response to the user selecting edit element 628. Once the user has reached the user interface element editing interface 626b, the user performs swipe left and / or swipe right gestures on display 602 to navigate through different editing interfaces corresponding to respective aspects of the time user interface, such as an interface for editing the user interface elements 618a, 618b, 618c, and 618d (e.g., complications and / or user interface elements that include information from an application) as depicted in FIGS. 6J-6M, a user interface for editing colors as depicted in FIGS. 6N-6P, and a user interface for editing dials as depicted in FIGS. 6Q-6R.

[0224] The user selects specific user interfaces elements for a given time user interface design. For example, the user selects (e.g., via a tap gesture and / or other selection input) a specific user interface element displayed on the specific time user interface editing interface 626b, such as user interface element 618a as shown in FIG. 6 J.

[0225] FIG. 6K illustrates computer system 600 displaying user interface element editing interface 626c. In some embodiments, user interface element editing interface 626c is displayed in response to the user selecting a specific user interface element displayed in a specific time user interface editing interface, such as user interface element 618a. While displaying user interface element editing interface 626c, the user navigates through different user interface element options to be displayed with a specific time user interface design. In some embodiments, computer system 600 scrolls the user interface element options in response to detecting a swipe up and / or swipe down gestures on display 602. Rotation of the rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604 causes computer system 600 to navigate through different user interface element options to be displayed with a specific time user interface design. In some embodiments, the initially displayed user interface element option 630a is highlighted and corresponds to the user interface element currently being used for theselected user interface element 618a. In this example, user interface element option 630a corresponds to an elevation user interface element option.

[0226] FIG. 6L illustrates computer system 600 displaying user interface element editing interface 626c after computer system 600 navigates to a different user interface element option. In this example, computer system 600 navigates to user interface element option 630b, which corresponds to a calendar user interface element option. In order to select user interface element option 630b for use within the respective time user interface design, computer system 600 responds to a tap on user interface element option 630b as shown via input 632.

[0227] FIG. 6M illustrates computer system 600 displaying user interface element editing interface 626d. In some embodiments, user interface element editing interface 626d is displayed in response to detecting selection of a specific user interface element option from user interface element editing interface 626c, such as via input 632. As shown in FIG. 6M, user interface element 634 corresponding to selected user interface element option 630b (e.g., the calendar user interface element, or a user interface element associated with another application) is now displayed in place of the previously displayed user interface element 618a. While displaying user interface element editing interface 626d, computer system 600 navigates through different specific time user interface editing options in response to detecting swipe left and / or swipe right gestures, as depicted via input 636.

[0228] FIG. 6N illustrates computer system 600 displaying color editing interface 626d. In some embodiments, color editing interface 626e is displayed in response to computer system 600 detecting one or more swipe left and / or swipe right gestures on display 602. In some embodiments, color editing interface 626e includes a plurality of color options 628, including a currently selected color option 628b, and additional color options 628a, 628c, and 628d. As shown in FIG. 6N, the currently selected color option corresponds to “multicolor,” as shown via label 630a. In some embodiments, time user interface preview 632a is displayed with respective colors corresponding to the currently selected color option. In this example, time user interface preview 632a is displayed with a color scheme having a multicolor theme (e.g., varying colors for the different background regions and complications and / or varying patterns for the different background regions and complications). In response to detecting rotation of rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604, computer system 600 navigates through different color options 628a, 628b, 628, and 628d.

[0229] FIG. 60 illustrates computer system 600 displaying color editing interface 626e. In some embodiments, color editing interface 626e is displayed in response to the rotating rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604 to navigate to color option 628c.Accordingly, color option 628c is displayed as highlighted. As shown in FIG. 6N, the currently selected color option corresponds to “red,” as shown via label 630b. In some embodiments, time user interface preview 632b is displayed with respective colors corresponding to the currently selected color option. In this example, time user interface preview 632b is displayed with a color scheme having a red theme (e.g., varying shades of red for the different background regions and complications, or varying shades of a different color for the different background regions).

[0230] FIG. 6P illustrates computer system 600 displaying color editing interface 626f. In some embodiments, color editing interface 626f is displayed in response to the rotating rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604 to navigate to color option 628d.Accordingly, color option 628d is displayed as highlighted. As shown in FIG. 6P, the currently selected color option corresponds to “red,” as shown via label 630c. In some embodiments, time user interface preview 632c is displayed with respective colors corresponding to the currently selected color option. In this example, time user interface preview 632b is displayed with a color scheme having a black theme (e.g., varying shades of gray and black for the different background regions and complications, or varying shades of a different color for the different background regions).

[0231] In some embodiments, once a color option is selected, the selected color option is then used as the basis for rotating through the colors of the first background region and the second background region as discussed with respect to FIGS. 6A-6H. As an example, multicolor is selected as the color option for the time user interface, such that various colors are rotated through as discussed with respect to FIGS. 6A-6H (e.g., yellow, red, green, orange, blue, and / or purple). As another example, red is selected as the color option for the time user interface, such that various shades of red are rotated through (e.g., instead of multiple different colors as discussed with respect to FIGS. 6A-6H).

[0232] FIG. 6Q illustrates computer system 600 displaying dial editing interface 626f. In some embodiments, dial editing interface 626f is displayed in response to detection of a swipe right and / or swipe left gesture on specific time user interface editing options, such as editing user interface elements (e.g., complications and / or applications) as depicted in FIGS.6J-6M or editing colors as depicted in FIGS. 6N-6P. While dial editing interface 626f is displayed, rotation of rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604 causes computer system 600 to navigate through different dial options for the time user interface. As shown via FIG. 6Q, a “single” dial interface is selected, as shown via label 634a, which corresponds to the time user interface discussed with respect to FIGS. 6A-6H. While the “single” dial interface is selected, the time user interface adjusts he first background region color and the second background region color as discussed with respect to FIGS. 6A-6H.

[0233] FIG. 6R illustrates computer system 600 displaying dial editing interface 626g. In some embodiments, dial editing interface 626g is displayed in response to rotation of rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604 to navigate to a “multiple” dial option, as indicated via label 634b. While the “multiple” dial interface is selected, the time user interface adjusts the first background region color and the second background region color as discussed with respect to FIGS. 6S-6U. Once the desired settings are selected via the editing user interface, computer system 600 displays the main time user interface with the selected settings in response to detecting a press of rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604 as shown in FIG. 6F.

[0234] FIG. 6S illustrates computer system 600 displaying a time user interface with a “multiple” dial option selected. The time user interface includes an indication of time (e.g., hour hand 614 and minute hand 616). The state of computer system 600 while displaying user interface 608g generally corresponds to an active state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state. While in the active state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state, user interface 608g includes a plurality of background objects, including background object 638a. In some embodiments, the plurality of background objects corresponds to a plurality of flowers having respective colors. Background object 638a includes a blue inner flower region and a yellow outer flower region, for example. In some embodiments, the respective colors correspond to color options selected via the editing user interface.

[0235] FIG. 6T illustrates computer system 600 after a transition to a different power state relative to FIG. 6S. For instance, after a period in which computer system 600 does not receive user inputs or detect the occurrence of one or more conditions that keep the computer system in an active state, computer system 600 transitions from the active state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state (e.g., as depicted in FIG. 6B or FIG. 6S) to a low-power state, off state, and / or sleep state. Computer system 600 also transitions to the low-powerstate, off state, and / or sleep state in response to detected events such as a wrist-lowering gesture or the covering of display 602 by a hand of the user. Accordingly, display 602 transitions to a lower power state than the state depicted in FIG. 6S. When in the lower power state, user interface 608h is displayed with a plurality of background objects, including background object 638b. In some embodiments, the plurality of background objects corresponds to the plurality of background objects of FIG. 6S while depicted in a grayscale state. For instance, background object 638b includes a gray inner flower region and a gray outer flower region. In addition, the outline of the inner region of background object 638b corresponds to blue and the outline of the outer region of background object 638b corresponds to yellow. In some embodiments, the plurality of background object 638b is displayed as shrunk in size relative to the plurality of background object 638a.

[0236] FIG. 6U illustrates computer system 600 in response to a transition to a different power state. In particular, computer system 600 detects a transition to a higher power state than the state of computer system 600 as depicted in FIG. 6T. The transition is based on various events, such as detecting a tap on display 602 while computer system 600 is in the lower power state and / or a detected raise gesture while computer system 600 is in the lower power state (e.g., the user raising computer system 600 to view display 602 or the user moving computer system 600 out of a pocket). Upon transition to the higher power state, computer system 600 displays user interface 608i. User interface 608i includes a new plurality of background objects 638c relative to the plurality of background objects 638a and 638b. In particular, the new plurality of background objects 638c correspond to a plurality of flowers having respective colors. The respective colors in general include the same respective colors as depicted in the plurality of background objects 638a described with respect to FIG. 6S. For example, the respective colors described with respect to FIG. 6S and FIG. 6U are based on the same selected color options described with respect to FIGS. 6N-6P. Upon transition to the higher power state, the pattern and / or arrangement of flowers is also changed to result in the display of a new pattern or arrangement relative to the pattern and / or arrangement depicted in FIGS. 6S and 6T.

[0237] In some embodiments, the pattern and / or arrangement of background objects change in response to a transition to a lower power state (e.g., rather than changing in response to a transition to a higher power state as discussed with respect to FIGS. 6S-6U).

[0238] FIG. 6V illustrates computer system 600-1 displaying a plurality of background objects on a user interface. In some embodiments, computer system 600-1 corresponds to a smartphone or a tablet computer. In some embodiments, the state of computer system 600-1 as depicted in FIG. 6V corresponds to the display of an initial user interface after the computer system wakes (e.g., from a lower power and / or resting state) and / or unlocked (e.g., after providing authentication via facial recognition or after providing authentication via a passcode). In FIG. 6 V, computer system 600-1 displays a plurality of background objects, including background object 640. In some embodiments, the plurality of background objects correspond to representations of flowers. Computer system 600-1 navigates to a home screen in response to detection of one or more inputs, such as, e.g., input 642 corresponding to a swipe up gesture near the bottom portion of display 602.

[0239] FIG. 6W illustrates an initial display state of a plurality of background objects on a home screen of computer system 600-1. For example, in response to receiving user input 642, computer system 600-1 displays a plurality of user interface objects (e.g., icons corresponding to respective applications or user interface elements corresponding to complications) appearing from corners of display 602, such as user interface objects 644. The plurality of user interface objects are displayed as overlaid on the plurality of background objects. In addition, the plurality of background objects are displayed as moving in a particular direction on display 602, such as in an upward direction. For example, in FIG. 6W, background object 640 is displayed higher on display 602 relative to background object 640 in FIG. 6V.

[0240] FIG. 6X illustrates a subsequent display state of a plurality of background objects on a home screen of computer system 600-1. In some embodiments, the state of display 602 depicted in FIG. 6X corresponds to the state of the home screen once the plurality of user interface objects and the plurality of background objects are no longer displayed as moving. For example, user interface object 644 (e.g., corresponding to an icon for a weather application or corresponding to an icon for another application) is displayed as moving to a final location on display 602. In addition, background object 640 is displayed as stationary behind one or more user interface objects of the plurality of user interface objects, such as user interface object 644.

[0241] FIG. 7 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for displaying background regions using a computer system in accordance with some embodiments. Method 700 is performedat a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, 600, 600-1, a smartphone, a smartwatch, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a head mounted augmented reality device and / or a head mounted extended reality device) that is in communication with a display generation component (e.g., 602, a display controller, a display, a touch-sensitive display system, a touchscreen, a monitor, and / or a head mounted display system). In some embodiments, the computer system is in communication with one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a physical button, a rotatable input mechanism, a rotatable and depressible input mechanism, a motion sensor, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a keyboard, a controller, and / or a mouse). Some operations in method 700 are, optionally, combined, the orders of some operations are, optionally, changed, and some operations are, optionally, omitted.

[0242] As described below, method 700 provides an intuitive way for displaying background regions for time user interfaces. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user for displaying background regions for time user interfaces, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, enabling a user to modify background regions for time user interfaces faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

[0243] The computer system displays (702) (e.g., at a first time), via the display generation component, a time user interface (e.g., 608a, 608b, 608c, 608d, 608e, 608f, 608g, 608h, 608i, 608j, a user interface that includes an analog and / or digital indication of time, a clock face user interface, a watch face user interface, a sleep screen, a wake screen, and / or a lock screen) having a first background region (e.g., 620a and / or an outer region) and a second background region (e.g., 620b and / or an inner region inside an outer region), wherein the first background region is displayed (e.g., at the first time) with a first color (e.g., red, or another color or pattern) and the second background region is displayed (e.g., at the first time) with a second color (e.g., green, or another color or pattern). In some embodiments, the first background region includes only one color. In some embodiments, the first background region includes multiple colors. In some embodiments, the first background region includes a pattern of shapes (e.g., flowers, geometric shapes, and / or as shown in FIGS. 6B-6H and / or 6S-6X) and / or a pattern of colors. In some embodiments, a sleep screen (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6C, 6G, and / or 6T) is a user interface that is displayed when the computer system is in a reduced-power state, off state, and / or sleep state. In some embodiments, a wake screen(e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D and / or 6H) is a user interface that is displayed when the computer system transitions from a lower power state to a higher power state (e.g., from a state in which computer system 600 has a lower brightness, a display has a slower refresh rate, a lower power processor is in use, a processor is in a lower power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking less frequent sensor measurements to a state in which computer system 600 has a higher brightness, a display has a faster refresh rate, a higher power processor is in use, a processor is in a higher power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking more frequent sensor measurements). In some embodiments, the second background region is contained within the first background region. In some embodiments, the first background region and the second background region are mutually exclusive (e.g., do not overlap). In some embodiments, the first background region corresponds to a first flower or first geometric shape and the second background region corresponds to a second flower or second geometric shape that is smaller than the first flower or first geometric shape. In some embodiments, the first flower or first geometric shape is behind the second flower or second geometric shape.

[0244] In some embodiments, the first background region and / or the second background region are displayed behind an indication of time (e.g., 614 and / or 616, a digital indication of time and / or an analog indication of time that includes one or more clock hands that indicate time by pointing in different directions) and / or one or more user interface elements associated with a corresponding application (e.g., 618a, 618b, 618c, 618d, a complication, text, and / or graphic that displays information obtained from an application). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input (e.g., 618a) corresponding to selection of the user interface element associated with the application, the computer system launches and / or opens the corresponding application (e.g., displays a user interface of the corresponding application). In some embodiments, the indication of time and / or the one or more user interface elements are overlaid on the first background region and / or the second background region.

[0245] The computer system detects (704) an update event (e.g., a detected motion causing the computer system to transition from a low-power state, off state, and / or sleep state to an active state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state). In some embodiments, detected motion includes change in position, rotation, and / or change in orientation of at least a portion of the computer system (e.g., motion that satisfies a set of motion criteria, such as motion that is indicative of a wrist raise gesture, picking up the computer system, an intent toview the display generation component, and / or an intent to interact with the computer system). In some embodiments, the update event is detected via one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a button, and / or a motion detector). In some embodiments, the update event is detected based on context (e.g., a predetermined time and / or location). In some embodiments, the update event is detected based on information from an application (e.g., calendar application, message application, e-mail application, and / or weather application). In some embodiments, the update event is a notification (e.g., of a calendar event, message, e-mail, and / or event associated with another application).

[0246] In response to detecting the update event, the computer system displays (706) (e.g., at a second time different from the first time), via the display generation component, the time user interface with the first background region having the second color (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D-6F and / or green). In some embodiments, the second background region is displayed with a new color (e.g., blue, or another color or pattern) and the first background region is displayed transitioning to the color previously included in the second background region. In some embodiments, prior to detecting the update event, the first background region and second background region are displayed as transitioning to a grayscale outline of colored regions (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6C, 6G, and / or 6T). Displaying a time user interface having a first background region with a first color and a second background region with a second color, and displaying the time user interface with the first background region having the second color in response to detecting an update event indicates that the update event has been detected and updates the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation, and preventing permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0247] In some embodiments, displaying the time user interface having the first background region and the second background region (e.g., at the first time and / or prior to detecting the update event) includes displaying the second background region (or, in some embodiments, a sub-region of the second background region) with a third color (e.g., the color of 620b as shown in FIG. 6D and / or the color yellow). In some embodiments, the second background region includes multiple colors (e.g., a flower with two colors, a flower with three colors, a geometric shape with two colors, or a geometric shape with three colors).In some embodiments, the second background region includes a pattern of shapes (e.g., flowers or geometric shapes) that have one or more respective colors. Displaying the time user interface including the second background region displayed with a third color varies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0248] In some embodiments, prior to detecting the update event, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the time user interface with a first color pattern (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6B and / or 6S, a flower having a specific shape and one or more colors, a geometric shape having one or more colors, an arrangement of multiple flowers having respective specific shapes and one or more colors, and / or an arrangement of multiple geometric shapes having one or more colors). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the update event, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the time user interface with a second color pattern different from the first color pattern (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D, 6E, 6F, and / or 6U, a new flower having a different specific shape and one or more different colors, a new geometric shape having a different specific shape and one or more different colors, a new arrangement of multiple flowers having different respective specific shapes and one or more different colors, and / or a new arrangement of multiple geometric shapes having different respective specific shapes and one or more different colors). Displaying the time user interface having a second color pattern different from a first color pattern in response to detecting an update event provides improved visual feedback to the user, reduces the number of inputs needed to update the time user interface, and prevents permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0249] In some embodiments, the first color pattern includes one or more first shapes (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6B and / or 6S, a first flower having a first shape, a first plurality of flowers having respective shapes, a first geometric shape having a first shape, and / or a first plurality of geometric shapes having respective shapes) and the second color pattern includes one or more second shapes different from the one or more first shapes (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D, 6E, 6F, and / or 6U, a second flower having a second shape, a second geometric shape having a second shape, a second plurality of flowers having respective shapes, and / or a second plurality of geometric shapes having respective shapes). Displaying the time userinterface with a second color pattern having one or more second shapes which are different from one or more shapes displayed with a first color pattern in response to detecting an update event updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation and preventing permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0250] In some embodiments, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the time user interface with one or more user interface elements (e.g., 618a, 618b, 618c, 618d, selectable user interface elements, and / or complications) associated with one or more respective applications (e.g., a first user interface element associated with a first application in an upper-left corner of the time user interface, a first user interface element associated with a first application in a lower-left corner of the time user interface, a first user interface element associated with a first application in an upper-right corner of the time user interface, and / or a first user interface element associated with a first application in a lower- left corner of the time user interface), wherein the one or more user interface elements are displayed in the time user interface prior to detecting the update event and the one or more user interface elements are displayed in the time user interface after detecting the update event (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6B and 6D). In some embodiments, the one or more user interface elements associated with the first application is not displayed during a period between a first update event (e.g., wrist down motion, hand cover gesture, and / or computer system transitions from an active state to a sleep, resting, or lower power state) and a second update event (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6C and / or 6G, wrist up motion, tap on dimmed screen, and / or the computer system transitions from a sleep, resting, or lower power state to an active state). In some embodiments, a complication refers to a feature of a user interface (e.g., a home screen, a wake screen, a clock face and / or a watch face) other than those used to indicate the hours and minutes of a time (e.g., 614, 616, clock hands, and / or hour / minute indications). In some embodiments, complications provide data obtained from an application. In some embodiments, a complication updates the displayed data in accordance with a determination that the data obtained from the application has been updated. In some embodiments, the complication updates the displayed data over time. In some embodiments, a complication includes an affordance that when selected launches a corresponding application. In some embodiments, a complication includes an affordance that when selected causes the computer system to perform a specific task. In some embodiments, a complicationis displayed at a fixed, predefined location on the display. In some embodiments, complications occupy respective locations at particular regions (e.g., lower-right, lower-left, upper-right, and / or upper-left) of a user interface (e.g., a home screen, a wake screen, a clock face and / or a watch face). In some embodiments, a user may select (e.g., 632) a type of complication to include on the display. In some embodiments, a user may select specific parameters to display for a specific type of complication. Displaying the time user interface with user interface elements both before and after detecting the update event varies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0251] In some embodiments, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, a first user interface element of the one or more user interface elements with a first element color (e.g., 618 in FIG. 6B, the first element color is based at least in part on a color surrounding the first user interface element, such as a color of a background behind the first user interface element, and / or the first element color is based at least in part on a user- selected setting), and in response to detecting the update event, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the first user interface element of the one or more user interface elements with a second element color different from the first element color (e.g., 618a in FIG. 6F, the second element color is based at least in part on a color surrounding the user interface element, such as a color of a background behind the first user interface element, and / or the second element color is based at least in part on a user-selected setting). For example, the computer system changes a color of the first user interface element in response to detecting the update event (e.g., based on a change in color of the background behind the first user interface element). In some embodiments, the computer system changes a color of two or more of the one or more user interface elements in response to detecting the update event. Displaying a user interface element with a different color than an initial color in response to detecting the update event varies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface and ensures the legibility of the user interface element, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0252] In some embodiments, the first element color (and, in some embodiments, the second element color) of the first user interface element is based on (e.g., is selected basedon, matches and / or is complementary to) a current color of the first background region (e.g., 618a relative to 620a in FIG. 6B, and / or the first color prior to detecting the update event and the second color after detecting the update event). In some embodiments, the color of the first user interface element is a lighter shade of the color of the first background region or the color of the first user interface element is a darker shade of the color of the first background region. In some embodiments, two or more of the user interface elements of the one or more user interface elements have respective element colors based on a current color of the first background region. Displaying a user interface element with a color based on a current color of a corresponding background region provides a user with consistent user interface elements blending with background region changes thus varying the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0253] In some embodiments, an appearance (e.g., a material, a transparent region, and / or a translucent region) of the first user interface element has a property (e.g., tint, brightness, color, opacity, blur, and / or saturation) that adjusts based on a change in a current color of the first background region (e.g., 618a relative to 620a in FIGS. 6D-6E and / or based on a color underlying the first user interface element and / or a color adjacent to the first user interface element). In some embodiments, two or more of the user interface elements of the one or more user interface elements have respective properties that adjust based on a change in a current color of the first background region. Displaying a user interface element with properties that adjust based on a current color of a corresponding background region updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation and providing improved visual feedback to the user.

[0254] In some embodiments, the update event includes (e.g., is) a transition from a first power state (e.g., the state shown in FIG. 6B, an active state, and / or a normal operating state) to a second power state (e.g., the state shown in FIG. 6C, a lower power state, a sleep state, a resting state, and / or a reduced power state), wherein the computer system consumes less power in the second power state than in the first power state (e.g., because in the active state, a display has a higher brightness, a display has a faster refresh rate, a higher power processor is in use, a processor is in a higher power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking more frequent sensor measurements). In some embodiments, the computer systemtransitions to the second power state in response to detecting a wrist down motion (e.g., a wrist or hand down gesture and / or motion that satisfies a set of motion criteria that indicates that a wrist or hand of a user has been lowered). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting that the computer system (or, in some embodiments, a display of the computer system) is covered (e.g., in response to detecting a hand cover gesture and / or in response to detecting that the computer system has been covered for a predetermined amount of time). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting that the computer system has been lowered (e.g., to a resting position, a surface, and / or a user’s pocket). Modifying the display of the time user interface in response to transition to a state consuming less power varies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0255] In some embodiments, the update event includes (e.g., is) a transition from a first power state (e.g., the state shown in FIG. 6C, a lower power state, a sleep state, a resting state, and / or a reduced power state) to a second power state (e.g., the state shown in FIG. 6D, an active state, and / or a normal operating state), wherein the computer system consumes more power in the second power state than in the first power state (e.g., because a display has a higher brightness, a display has a faster refresh rate, a higher power processor is in use, a processor is in a higher power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking more frequent sensor measurements). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting a wrist or hand up motion (e.g., a wrist or hand up gesture and / or motion that satisfies a set of motion criteria that indicates that a wrist or hand of a user has been raised). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting that the computer system (or, in some embodiments, a display of the computer system) receives a user input (e.g., in response to detecting a finger tap gesture and / or finger swipe gesture). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting that the computer system has been raised (e.g., raised from a surface and / or retrieved from the user’s pocket). Modifying the display of the time user interface in response to a transition to a state consuming more power modifies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0256] In some embodiments, the update event is based on (e.g., includes or is) motion of the computer system (e.g., a motion that satisfies a set of motion criteria that is indicative of a user’s wrist moving up and / or down and / or the computer system moving up and / or down). In some embodiments, detecting the update event includes detecting a wrist or hand raise gesture and / or detecting a wrist or hand down gesture. Modifying the display of the time user interface in response to an update event based on motion of the computer system adjusts the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0257] In some embodiments, the update event is based on (e.g., includes or is) the computer system being covered (e.g., by a hand of a user or other object). In some embodiments, the update event includes (e.g., is) the computer system being uncovered. In some embodiments, detecting the update event includes detecting a hand cover gesture and / or detecting an uncover gesture. Modifying the display of the time user interface in response an update event based on the computer system being covered modifies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0258] In some embodiments, in response to detecting the update event, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, an animation (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D-6F, an animation of a flower or a geometric shape of the second background region growing into the first background region and / or an animation of a plurality of new flowers or a plurality of geometric shapes growing to replace existing flowers or existing geometric shapes) that includes the first background region transitioning from having a fourth color (e.g., black or the first color) to having the second color. In some embodiments, the animation includes a flower of the second background region blooming to gradually replace an existing flower of first background region (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D-6F). In some embodiments, the animation includes a geometric shape of the second background region expanding to gradually replace an existing geometric shape of first background region. In some embodiments, displaying the time user interface with the first background region having the second color in response to detecting the update event includes displaying the animation that includes the first background region transitioning from having the first color to having the second color. Displaying a time user interface by displaying an animationincluding the first background region transitioning from a default color to a new color updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation, and preventing permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0259] In some embodiments, the animation includes an animation of a shape (e.g., a flower or geometric shape) expanding (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D-6E and / or expanding outward from a center region of the time user interface). In some embodiments, the animation includes a flower blooming beyond the display edges (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6E) such that a portion of the flower is no longer visible. In some embodiments, the animation includes a geometric shape expanding beyond the display edges such that a portion of the geometric shape is no longer visible. Displaying a time user interface by displaying the expansion of a flower in response to the update event updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0260] In some embodiments, the animation includes an animation of the shape (e.g., the flower or geometric shape) shrinking (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6E-6F and / or shrinking inwards towards the center region of the time user interface) after the animation of the shape (e.g., flower or geometric shape) expanding (e.g., the shape expands and then becomes smaller in size before becoming stationary). Displaying a time user interface by displaying the shrinking of a flower or geometric shape after the expansion of the flower or geometric shape updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0261] In some embodiments, the animation includes an animation of a shape (e.g., flower or geometric shape) rotating (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D-6E). In some embodiments, the shape rotates as the shape expands in size (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6D-6E). In some embodiments, the shape rotates as the shape shrinks in size (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6E-6F). Displaying a time user interface by displaying a rotation of the flower or geometric shape modifies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputsto manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0262] In some embodiments, displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface having the first background region and the second background region includes displaying, via the display generation component, the first color within a first boundary having the first color (e.g., 620a in FIG. 6B, display the first flower or first geometric shape having the respective color within a boundary representing the edges of the first flower or the edges of the first geometric shape) and displaying, via the display generation component, the second color within a second boundary having the second color (e.g., 620b in FIG. 6B display the second flower or second geometric shape having the respective color within a boundary representing the edges of the second flower or the edge of the second geometric shape). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a transition from a first power state to a second power state (e.g., the computer system transitioning from an active state to a sleep, resting, or lower power state), wherein the computer system consumes a greater amount of power in the first power state than in the second power state (e.g., because in the active state: a display has a higher brightness, a display has a faster refresh rate, a higher power processor is in use, a processor is in a higher power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking more frequent sensor measurements): the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the first boundary having the first color, and ceases to display the first color within the first boundary (e.g., display 620a as shown in FIG. 6C and / or display the first flower or the first geometric shape with a grayscale color within a boundary representing the edges of the first flower or the edges of the first geometric shape, wherein the first boundary retains the first color), and the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the second boundary having the second color, and ceasing to display the second color within the second boundary (e.g., display 620b as shown in FIG. 6C and / or display the second flower or the second geometric shape with a grayscale color within a boundary representing the edges of the second flower or the edges of the second geometric shape, wherein the second boundary retains the second color). In some embodiments, displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface with the first background region having the second color in response to detecting the update event includes displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface with the second background region having a fourth color (e.g., display 620b as shown in FIG. 6D and / or display the second background region with a new flower or a new geometric shape having a new color ormultiple new colors), wherein detecting the update event includes detecting a transition from the second power state to the first power state (e.g., the computer system transitions from a sleep, resting, or lower power state to an active state). Displaying the first color within a first boundary having the first color and displaying the second color within a second boundary having the second color and displaying, in response to a transition to a lower power state, the first boundary having the first color, wherein a third color replaces the first color within the first boundary and displaying he second boundary having the second color, wherein the third color replaces second first color within the second boundary updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation, performing an operation when a set of conditions has been met without requiring further user input, reducing power consumption, and preventing permanent discoloration on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0263] In some embodiments, displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface having the first background region and the second background region includes displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface with a first pattern including one or more shapes each having a respective color (e.g., a flower or geometric shape having a specific shape and one or more colors and / or an arrangement of multiple flowers or geometric shapes each having specific shapes and one or more colors). In some embodiments, displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface with the first background region having the second color in response to detecting the update event includes displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface with a second pattern different from the first pattern (e.g., a new flower or geometric shape having a different specific shape and one or more different colors and / or a new arrangement of multiple flowers or multiple geometric shapes each having different specific shapes and one or more different colors), wherein the second pattern includes an outline of a plurality of color boundaries (e.g., display colored outline of a plurality of flowers or a plurality of geometric shapes). In some embodiments, detecting the update event includes detecting a transition from a first power state to a second power state (e.g., the computer system transitions from an active state to a sleep, resting, or lower power state), wherein the computer system consumes a greater amount of power in the first power state than in the second power state (e.g., because in the active state, a display has a higher brightness, adisplay has a faster refresh rate, a higher power processor is in use, a processor is in a higher power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking more frequent sensor measurements). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a transition from the second power state to the first power state (e.g., in response to detecting the update event or in response to detecting another event) (e.g., the computer system transitions from a sleep, resting, or lower power state to an active state), the computer system displays, via the display generation component, for at least one respective color boundary (e.g., one color boundary, two color boundaries, three color boundaries, or four color boundaries) of the plurality of color boundaries, an area within the at least one respective color boundary having the color of the respective color boundary. In some embodiments, area within respective color boundary corresponds to first background region. In some embodiments, area within respective color boundary corresponds to second background region. In some embodiments, areas within additional areas maintain their color despite being surrounded by other color boundaries. Displaying the time user interface with a second pattern different from a first pattern in response to the update event and further displaying, in response to a transition to a higher power state, each respective color boundary of the plurality of color boundaries, an area within the respective color boundary having the color of the respective color boundary updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation, further performing an operation when a set of conditions has been met without requiring further user input, and preventing permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0264] In some embodiments, in response to detecting the update event, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the time user interface with the second background region having a third color (e.g., 620b as shown in FIG. 6D). In some embodiments, the third color is the same as or different from the first color, and / or different from the second color. In some embodiments, the third color corresponds to a color of a new flower or new geometric shape displayed to replace the existing flower or existing geometric shape in a second background region. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an additional update event, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the time user interface with the first background region having the third color (e.g., display 620a as shown in FIG. 6H and / or display the first background region transitioning to the thirdcolor previously included in the second background region). Displaying a time user interface having a first background region with a third color and a second background region with the third color in response to the update event modifies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0265] In some embodiments, prior to displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, an editing user interface (e.g., 632a, 632b, and / or 632c) that includes a plurality of color options (e.g., 628a, 628b, 628c, 628d, and / or small circular orbs depicting selectable options for the first background region and second background region). In some embodiments, the computer system detects a selection (e.g., 604a, 604b, crown rotation, inward press of crown, tap gesture, and / or long press gesture) of a color option of the plurality of color options (e.g., shades of red, shades of green, shades of grey and black, and / or shades of multiple colors), wherein the first color of the first background region is based on the selected color option, and the second color of the second background region is based on the selected color option (e.g., the first color is dark red and the second color is light red, first color is light green and the second color is dark green, the first color is light gray and the second color is dark gray, or the first color is orange and the second color is purple). In some embodiments, the selected colors include an ordered set of colors (e.g., lime green, emerald green, and / or forest green) to be rotated through in response to the update event (e.g., the first background region starts with lime green and the second background region starts with emerald green; in response to detecting the first update event, the first background region includes emerald green and the second background region includes forest green; and in response to detecting the second update event, the first background region includes forest green and the second background region includes lime green). Displaying an editing user interface including a plurality of color options, wherein the first color of the first background region is based on a selected color option, and the second color of the second background region is based on the selected color option provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls.

[0266] In some embodiments, the computer system detects (e.g., via one or more input devices) an input (e.g., 642, a touch input on a touch-sensitive surface, an air gesture, a voice input, a swipe up gesture at a bottom of a display, and / or a press of predetermined button)corresponding to a request to display a first user interface (e.g., a home screen and / or a user interface that includes a plurality of selectable application icons for launching respective applications) different from the time user interface (e.g., a request to navigate from the time user interface to the first user interface or a different user interface), and in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to display the first user interface, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the first user interface and an animation that includes a plurality of shapes (e.g., 640) moving towards a respective region (e.g., an upper region, a lower region, a right region, a left region, or a center region) of the first user interface (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6V-6X and / or display existing flowers or existing geometric shapes moving to the top of the display). Displaying a first user interface and an animation that includes a plurality of shapes moving towards an upper region of the first user interface in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to display the first user interface modifies the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation and preventing permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0267] In some embodiments, the computer system displays, via the display generation component, the time user interface with a first arrangement of shapes (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6S, a first arrangement of multiple flowers or multiple geometric shapes of different shapes and / or configurations having different colors; e.g., a first arrangement of multiple flowers or multiple geometric shapes having the same shape and configuration but different colors), and in response to detecting the update event, displaying, via the display generation component, the time user interface with a second arrangement of shapes different from the first arrangement of shapes (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6U, a second arrangement of multiple flowers or multiple geometric shapes of different shapes and / or configurations having different colors, wherein the shapes and / or configurations are different from the shapes and / or configurations in the first arrangement of multiple flower or the first arrangement of multiple geometric shapes; e.g., a second arrangement of multiple flowers or multiple geometric shapes having the same shape and configuration, wherein the shape and configuration is are different from the shape and configuration of the first arrangement of multiple flowers or the first arrangement of multiple geometric shapes). In some embodiments, the second arrangement has a different number of shapes than the first arrangement. In some embodiments, the second arrangement has a different position of shapes than the firstarrangement. In some embodiments, the second arrangement has a different color of shapes than the first arrangement. In some embodiments, the second arrangement has differently sized shapes than the first arrangement. In some embodiments, the second arrangement includes shapes with different geometric shapes than the first arrangement. Displaying the time user interface with a second arrangement of shapes different from a first arrangement of shapes initially updates the appearance of the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation, and preventing permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0268] Note that details of the processes described above with respect to method 700 (e.g., FIG. 7) are also applicable in an analogous manner to the methods described below. For example, methods 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, and / or 1700 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 700. For example, in some embodiments, the same computer system performs methods 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, and / or 1700 and / or the various time user interfaces recited in methods 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, and / or 1700 are implemented on the same computer system.

[0269] For example, FIGS. 7A-7D illustrate an exemplary embodiment by which computer system 600 allows a user to switch between different time user interfaces based on user input. At FIG. 7A, computer system 600 displays time user interface 750. At FIG. 7A, computer system 600 detects user input 752 (e.g., a touch screen input (e.g., a press and hold input)). At FIG. 7B, in response to user input 752, computer system 600 displays editing user interface 626a. Editing user interface 626a includes a representation of time user interface 750. At FIG. 7B, computer system 600 detects user input 754, which is a swipe right input on the representation of time user interface 750. At FIG. 7C, in response to user input 754, computer system scrolls editing user interface 626a to display a representation of a different time user interface 756. At FIG. 7C, computer system 600 detects user input 758, which is a touch screen input (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of the representation of time user interface 756. At FIG. 7D, in response to user input 758, computer system 600 displays time user interface 756. In various embodiments, computer system 600 allows a user to switch between different time user interfaces described herein (e.g., the various time userinterfaces described herein with reference to methods 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, and / or 1700) based on user input. For brevity, these details are not repeated below.

[0270] FIGS. 8A-8N illustrate techniques for displaying a simulated three-dimensional reflective object on a time user interface, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 9.

[0271] FIG. 8A illustrates computer system 600, which includes display 602 (e.g., a touch-sensitive display), rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604, and button 606. In FIG. 8A, computer system 600 is a smartwatch. In some embodiments, computer system 600 displays, on display 602, user interface 808a (e.g., a time user interface). User interface 808a includes an analog indication of time 810a. In some embodiments, user interface 808a includes a user interface region 808b that has an appearance that represents a view of a simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a. The user interface region 808b also has an appearance that is based on simulated light emitted from a simulated light source at a first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object. In some embodiments, computer system 600 does not display the simulated light source on display 600. In order to generate the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a based on the simulated light source, a model 814 is used. Model 814 is a simulated environment corresponding to a three-dimensional sphere. Simulated light source 816 is an outer shell of the three-dimensional sphere, such that simulated light source 816 emits light, represented by light ray 818a and light ray 818b (e.g., collectively light rays 818), inward towards a center of model 814. Simulated light source 816 generally corresponds to a white light source such that light rays 818 are white light rays. Model 814 also includes a plurality of reflective spheres 820a, 820b, and 820c, and sphere 820d. Reflective sphere 820a emits light, similar to and / or the same as light source 816. For instance, reflective sphere 820a emits red light ray 822a. Reflective spheres 820b and 820c reflect light emitted from simulated light source 816, as shown via reflected light rays 822b, and 822c. In some embodiments, reflective spheres 820b and 820c do not emit light rays. Reflective sphere 820b is an orange sphere and reflective sphere 820c is a yellow sphere. Accordingly, the reflected light rays 822b and 822c correspond to the color of the sphere from which the reflected light rays originate. As a result, reflected light ray 822b is orange and reflected light ray 822c is yellow. Sphere 820dis a black or otherwise dark reflective sphere that reflects, blocks and / or absorbs a small amount of light and / or adds contrast to the other reflections within the model.

[0272] Light rays 818a, 818b, 822a and reflected light rays 822b and 822c are directed about the model such that one or more of the light rays impinge on a simulated three- dimensional reflective object representation 812a. The orientation of simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a corresponds to an orientation of computer system 600. For instance, when a user’s wrist 826 is oriented in a particular direction, such as upward (e.g., the display surface of computer system 600 is facing in the opposite direction of gravity), computer system 600 is correspondingly oriented in the upward position. When computer system 600 is oriented in the upward position, as shown in FIG. 8A, representation 812a is oriented such that the main surface of representation 812a is angled towards a center area as depicted in FIG. 8 A. Accordingly, one or more light rays, such as light rays 818a, 818b, 822a and reflected light rays 822b and 822c intersect on the main surface of representation 812a and cause corresponding reflections to occur on the surface of representation 812a. Simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c and sphere 820d thus have positions relative to the surface of representation 812a, and as a result, light rays 818a, 818b, 822a and reflected light rays 822b and 822c have a particular angle with respect to the surface of representation 812a. The collective position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d relative to the surface of representation 812a creates an appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a that corresponds to representation 812a. When the collective position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d relative to the surface of representation 812a changes, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812 also changes. Based on the orientation of representation 812a, simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a includes a generally bright appearance.

[0273] With reference to FIG. 8B, user’s wrist 826 and computer system 600 rotates away from the user. The change in orientation of computer system 600 causes representation 812a to change orientation (e.g., rotate in one or more directions) relative to simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d as shown in FIG. 8B. The change in orientation of representation 812a changes based on a change in speed, direction, and / or orientation of computer system 600. Accordingly, the collective position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d relative to the surface ofrepresentation 812a changes with respect to the collective position prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIG. 8A). In addition, the angles between the light rays and the surface of representation 812a change relative to the angles prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIG. 8A). As a result, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a changes relative to the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A). For instance, a lower portion 828 of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a becomes dark or otherwise shaded based on the changed orientation of computer system 600. The remaining portion of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a appears generally similar to that of FIG. 8 A or includes different changes in appearance than the shaded portion (e.g., the remaining portions become slightly brighter or slightly darker). Based on the changes in position of the light sources and changed angles of the light rays incident on representation 812a, various colors also change within portion 828 and / or the remaining portions. For example, the colors within the remaining portions change from yellow and red to yellow and orange.

[0274] Reflective features of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a create the appearance of reflections based on the light emitted and / or reflected from simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d. For example, simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a includes deformations that extend from a central point of time user interface 810a corresponding to a point of rotation for hands of time user interface 810a (e.g., hour, minute, and / or seconds hands). The deformations correspond to common time divisions, such as 60 deformations representing 60 seconds, 12 deformations representing 12 hours, and / or four deformations representing 12 o’clock, 3 o’clock, 6 o’clock, and 9 o’clock. Simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a also includes an appearance corresponding to a material, such as titanium, stainless steel, or aluminum. The appearance also includes a type of external treatment of the material, such as a polished finish or a brushed finish.

[0275] Computer system 600 includes an outer housing 800-1. In some embodiments, the material depicted in the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is selected (e.g., by computer system 600) and / or displayed based on the material of thehousing. For example, if the housing material of computer system 600 is stainless steel, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is stainless steel.

[0276] Users can also share a respective time user interface that includes a respective simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a with another user. In some embodiments, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is different when the shared time user interface is displayed on the second device. Specifically, simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a is displayed on the other user’s device with simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a matching the housing material of the other user’s device. For example, simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is displayed as stainless steel on the transferring device, whereas simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is displayed as aluminum on the receiving device.

[0277] With reference to FIG. 8C, user’s wrist 826 and computer system 600 are rotated towards the user. The change in orientation of computer system 600 causes representation 812a to change orientation (e.g., rotate in one or more directions) relative to simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d as shown in FIG. 8C. The change in orientation of representation 812a changes in accordance with a change in speed, direction, and / or orientation of computer system 600. Accordingly, the collective position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d relative to the surface of representation 812a changes with respect to the collective position prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8B). In addition, the particular angles between the light rays and the surface of representation 812a change relative to the particular angles prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8B). As a result, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a changes relative to the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8B). For example, an upper portion 830 of simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a becomes dark or otherwise shaded based on the changed orientation of computer system 600. The appearance of the remaining portion of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is similar to that in FIG. 8A or includes different changes in appearance than the shaded portion (e.g., the remaining portions become slightly brighter or slightly darker). Based on the changes in position of the light sources and changes in angles of the light rays incident on representation 812a, various colors also change withinportion 828 or the remaining portions. For example, the colors within the remaining portions change from yellow and orange to red and orange.

[0278] With reference to FIG. 8D, user’s wrist 826 and computer system 600 rotate in an upward direction towards the user. The change in orientation of computer system 600 causes representation 812a to change orientation (e.g., rotate in one or more directions) relative to simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d as shown in FIG. 8D. The change in orientation of representation 812a changes in accordance with a change in speed, direction, and / or orientation of computer system 600. Accordingly, the collective position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c and sphere 820d relative to the surface of representation 812a changes with respect to the collective position prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8C). In addition, the particular angles between the light rays and the surface of representation 812a change relative to the particular angles prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8C). As a result, the appearance of simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a changes relative to the appearance of simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8C). For example, a right portion 832 of simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a becomes dark or otherwise shaded based on the changed orientation of computer system 600. The remaining portion of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a appears generally similar to that of FIG. 8 A or includes different changes in appearance than the shaded portion (e.g., the remaining portions becomes slightly brighter or slightly darker). Based on the changes in position of the light sources and change in angles of the light rays incident on representation 812a, various colors also change within portion 828 or the remaining portions. For example, the colors within the remaining portions shift from red and orange to dark red.

[0279] With reference to FIG. 8E, user’s wrist 826 and computer system 600 rotate in a downward direction away from the user. The change in orientation of computer system 600 causes representation 812a to change orientation (e.g., rotate in one or more directions) relative to simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d as shown in FIG. 8E. The change in orientation of representation 812a changes in accordance with a change in speed, direction, and / or orientation of computer system 600. Accordingly, the position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820drelative to the surface of representation 812a changes with respect to the collective position prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIG. 8A). In addition, the angles between the light rays and the surface of representation 812a change relative to the angles prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8D). As a result, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a changes relative to the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8D). For example, a left portion 834 of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a becomes dark or otherwise shaded based on the changed orientation of representation 812a. The remaining portion of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a appears generally similar to that of FIG. 8 A or includes different changes in appearance than the shaded portion (e.g., the remaining portions become slightly brighter or slightly darker). Based on the changes in position of the light sources and changed angles of the light rays incident on representation 812a, various colors also change within portion 828 or the remaining portions. For example, the colors within the remaining portions shift from dark red to dark yellow.

[0280] With reference to FIG. 8F, user’s wrist 826 and computer system 600 moves into a resting position, such as resting at the user’s side or otherwise positioned in a non-viewing orientation. In some embodiments, the orientation causes computer system 600 to enter a sleep state, a resting state, and / or a reduced power state. The change in orientation of computer system 600 causes representation 812a to also tilt in a corresponding direction as depicted in FIG. 8F, such as tilting generally away from light rays emitted from simulated light source 816, light ray 822a, and reflected light rays 822b and 822c. The change in orientation of representation 812a changes consistently with a change in speed, direction, and / or orientation of computer system 600. Accordingly, the position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c and sphere 820d relative to the surface of representation 814 and the angles between the light rays and the surface of representation 812a change relative to the respective positions and angles prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8E). As a result, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a changes relative to the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIGS. 8A-8E). For example, based on the orientation of representation 824 as generally tilted away from the light rays and the reflectedlight rays, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a becomes generally dark or otherwise shaded.

[0281] The color scheme for simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a includes various predefined and / or adjustable colors that are depicted based on movement of the computer system 600, as described with respect to FIGS. 8A-8F. For example, a current color scheme of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is “warm,” which generally includes the colors red, orange, and yellow. Specifically, as discussed above, reflective sphere 820a emits a red light ray 822a. Reflective sphere 820b is an orange sphere and reflective sphere 820c is a yellow sphere, such that reflected light ray 822b is orange and reflected light ray 822c is yellow.

[0282] With reference to FIG. 8G, computer system 600 displays an editing user interface 834 that enables a user to modify various aspects of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a. In some embodiments, computer system 600 displays editing user interface 834 in response to detecting an input (e.g., press-and-hold input on display 802 and / or a press of a predefined button such as button 806). The manner in which one or more colors are reflected on simulated three-dimensional reflective object is modified via editing user interface 834. A first color scheme corresponding to color option 836a is initially selected for simulated three- dimensional reflective object 812a. As shown in FIG. 8G, a user rotates rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804 via rotation 804a to cycle through color options 836. For instance, the user navigates from the color corresponding to color option 836a to the color corresponding to color option 836b as depicted in FIG. 8G such that color option 836b is selected. Color option 836b includes shades or classifications of the color yellow, such as colors lemon, corn, and gold. Accordingly, model 814 is adjusted based on the user selection. In particular, reflective sphere 820a is adjusted to emit a “lemon” color. Reflective spheres 820b and 820c are adjusted to emit “corn” colored light and “gold” colored light, respectively. As a result, reflected light ray 822b is a “lemon” color and reflected light ray 822c is a “gold” color. The appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a changes within editing user interface 834 to reflect the selected color scheme of “yellow.”

[0283] With reference to FIG. 8H, computer system 600 detects an input, such as a rotation 804b of rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804 to cycle through additional color options 836. The user navigates from the color corresponding to color option 836b to the color corresponding to color option 836c as depicted in FIG. 8H. Color option 836cincludes shades or classifications of colors corresponding to the autumn season, such as bronze, purple, and gold. Accordingly, model 814 is adjusted based on the user selection. Reflective sphere 820a is adjusted to emit a purple colored light. Reflective sphere 820b is adjusted to emit a bronze colored light and reflective sphere 820c is adjusted to emit a gold colored light. As a result, reflected light ray 822b is a bronze color and reflected light ray 822c is a gold color. The appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a changes within editing user interface 834 to reflect the selected color scheme of “Fall.” Once the user has selected a desired color scheme for simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a, the user presses 804c rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804 to finalize the selection.

[0284] With reference to FIG. 81, once user presses 804c rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804 to finalize the selection, simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is displayed on display 802 including the selected color scheme “Fall.” Accordingly, based on various movements of computer system 600, simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is displayed with varying shades of brightness and darkness, along with varying shades of the respective colors of color scheme “Fall,” including purple, gold, and bronze (e.g., as discussed with respect to FIGS. 8A-8F).

[0285] With reference to FIG. 8J, computer system 600 navigates back to editing user interface 834 in response to an input (e.g., a press-and-hold input on display 802 and / or a press of a predefined button such as button 806). While in editing user interface 834, computer system 600 detects gesture 838 (e.g., a swipe left gesture or a swipe right gesture) to switch between an analog version of time user interface and a digital version of the time user interface. Specifically, the time user interface including simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812a is an analog time user interface. Computer system 600 detects the gesture which causes computer system 600 to change the time user interface from the analog time user interface to a digital time user interface, as shown in FIG. 8K. When changing the time user interface from the analog time user interface to the digital time user interface, one or more characteristics of the time user interface remain the same, such as the color scheme. As a result, various aspects of model 814 remains the same when switching from the analog time user interface to the digital time user interface, such as the reflective sphere 820a continuing to emit a purple colored light, reflective sphere 820b continuing to reflect a bronze light ray and reflective sphere 820c continuing to reflect a gold light ray. The user providesan input, such as a press 840 of rotatable and depressible input mechanism 804 in to order to activate the digital time user interface.

[0286] With reference to FIG. 8L, a digital time user interface 810b including simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b is depicted. While digital time user interface 810b is activated, simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b represents an indication of time including one or more numerals indicating the current time, such as “1029” representing 10:29AM.

[0287] Different variations in the reflections from the simulated light source are displayed depending on whether an analog time user interface or a digital time user interface is selected. For example, the change in appearance of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object includes greater variance when the time user interface is analog. While the same general model 814 is implemented when using digital time user interface 810b, the simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation includes different characteristics than when model 814 is implemented using an analog time user interface. In particular, simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation 824b has less freedom of movement when model 814 is implemented using a digital time user interface. For instance, the simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation generally represents a three- dimensional curved surface that rotates and / or tilts with a degree of rotation within the three- dimensional model. While model 814 is implemented using an analog time user interface, simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation 812a rotates and / or tilts with a 360 degree of rotation (e.g., simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation 812a is capable of rotating to face any direction within model 814). While model 814 is implemented using a digital time user interface, simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation 824b rotates and / or tilts with less than a 360 degree of rotation (e.g., simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation 812a is capable of rotating to face a predefined range of directions within model 814). Alternatively, while model 814 is implemented using a digital time user interface, simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation 812a rotates and / or tilts along one or more axes within model 814 (e.g., simulated three-dimensional reflective object representation 812a is capable of rotating only clockwise or counterclockwise within model 814).

[0288] With reference to FIG. 8M, a movement of user’s wrist 826 and corresponding movement of computer system 600 is depicted while digital time user interface 810b isdisplayed. Here, computer system 600 tilts clockwise and away from the user. The change in orientation of computer system 600 causes representation 824b to tilt in a corresponding direction within model 814, such as tilting towards a lower portion of model 814. In some examples, the degree of tilt of representation 824b is less than the degree of tilt which would be implemented when using an analog time user interface with the same characteristic movement of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed with respect to FIG. 8B). The change in orientation of representation 824b changes consistently with a change in speed, direction, and / or orientation of computer system 600. Accordingly, the position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c, and sphere 820d relative to the surface of representation 824b and the particular angles between the light rays and the surface of representation 824b changes relative to the respective positions and angles prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIG. 8L). As a result, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b changes relative to the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIG. 8L). For instance, an upper portion 842 of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b is shown with a bright reflection based on the changed orientation of representation 824b. The remaining portion of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b appears generally similar to that of FIG. 8L or includes different changes in appearance than the brighter portion (e.g., the remaining portions become slightly brighter or slightly darker). Based on the changes in position of the light sources and changed angles of the light rays incident on representation 824b, various colors also change within portion 842 or the remaining portions. For example, the colors within the remaining portions shift from predominately gold and purple to predominantly purple and bronze.

[0289] With reference to FIG. 8N, an additional movement of user’s wrist 826 and corresponding movement of computer system 600. Here, computer system 600 tilts counterclockwise and towards the user. The change in orientation of computer system 600 causes representation 824b to tilt in a corresponding direction within model 814, such as tilting towards an upper portion of model 814. In some examples, the degree of tilt of representation 824b is less than the degree of tilt which would be implemented when using an analog time user interface with the same characteristic movement of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed with respect to FIG. 8C). The change in orientation of representation 824b changes consistently with a change in speed, direction, and / or orientation of computer system600. Accordingly, the position of simulated light source 816, reflective spheres 820a-820c and sphere 820d relative to the surface of representation 814 and the particular angles between the light rays and the surface of representation 814 changes relative to the respective positions and angles prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIG. 8L). As a result, the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b changes relative to the appearance of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b prior to the change in orientation of computer system 600 (e.g., as discussed in FIG. 8M). For instance, a lower portion 844 of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b is shown with a bright reflection based on the changed orientation of representation 824b. The remaining portion of simulated three-dimensional reflective object 812b appears generally similar to that of FIG. 8L or includes different changes in appearance than the brighter portion (e.g., the remaining portions become slightly brighter or slightly darker). Based on the changes in position of the light sources and changed angles of the light rays incident on representation 824b, various colors also change within portion 844 or the remaining portions. For example, the colors within the remaining portions shift from predominantly purple and bronze to predominantly gold and bronze.

[0290] FIG. 9 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for displaying background regions using a computer system in accordance with some embodiments. Method 900 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, 600, 600-1, a smartphone, a smartwatch, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a head mounted augmented reality device and / or a head mounted extended reality device) that is in communication with a display generation component (e.g., 602, a display controller, a display, a touch-sensitive display system, a touchscreen, a monitor, and / or a head mounted display system). In some embodiments, the computer system is in communication with one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a physical button, a rotatable input mechanism, a rotatable and depressible input mechanism, a motion sensor, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a keyboard, a controller, and / or a mouse). Some operations in method 900 are, optionally, combined, the orders of some operations are, optionally, changed, and some operations are, optionally, omitted.

[0291] As described below, method 900 provides an intuitive way for displaying background regions for time user interfaces. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user for displaying background regions for time user interfaces, thereby creating a moreefficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, enabling a user to modify background regions for time user interfaces faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

[0292] The computer system displays (902) via the display generation component, a time user interface (e.g., 810a, a user interface that includes an analog and / or digital indication of time, a clock face user interface, a watch face user interface, a home screen, a reduced-power screen, a wake screen, and / or a lock screen) including a user interface region (e.g., 808b) that has an appearance that represents a view of a simulated (e.g., virtual) three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a, a graphical representation of a three-dimensional reflective object such as a metallic object), the user interface region having a first appearance that is based on simulated light emitted from a simulated (e.g., virtual) light source (e.g., 816, 820a, a simulated light source having one or more colors that is an emissive and / or reflective light source) at a first position (e.g., location, distance, angle, and / or orientation) relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) (e.g., relative to a portion, point, and / or surface of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object). In some embodiments, a home screen corresponds to a user interface that is initially displayed when the computer system is unlocked, wakes from a reduced-power state, and / or receives a particular input (e.g., a swipe from a specific region on the display or a press of a specific button of the computer system). In some embodiments, the home screen includes affordances for a plurality of applications and functions of the computer system. In some embodiments, the plurality of applications and functions are user-customizable, such that the user of the computer system can configure which applications and / or device functions appear on the home screen.

[0293] In some embodiments, the simulated light source (e.g., a graphical representation of the simulated light source) is not displayed on the time user interface (e.g., the time user interface is displayed without displaying a representation of the simulated light source). In some embodiments, simulated light (e.g. 818a) from the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) is displayed on the time user interface. In some embodiments, displaying the time user interface includes displaying a simulated lighting effect that is based on the simulated light source (e.g., simulated light reflecting from the simulated three- dimensional reflective object). In some embodiments, the simulated lighting effect is based on a position of the simulated light source (e.g., relative to the simulated three-dimensionalreflective object, and / or as depicted in FIGS. 8A-8F), a color of the simulated light source, and / or a brightness of the simulated light source (e.g., in accordance with the simulated light source having at first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional object, the simulated three-dimensional object and / or the simulated lighting effect has a first appearance; and in accordance with the simulated light source having a second position different from the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional object, the simulated three- dimensional object and / or the simulated lighting effect has a second appearance that is different from the first appearance). In some embodiments, a reduced-power screen is a user interface that is displayed when the computer system is in a reduced-power state, low-power state, off state, and / or reduced-power state. In some embodiments, a wake screen is a user interface that is displayed when the computer system transitions from a lower power state to a higher power state (e.g., from a state in which the computer system has a lower brightness, a display has a slower refresh rate, a lower power processor is in use, a processor is in a lower power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking less frequent sensor measurements to a state in which the computer system has a higher brightness, a display has a faster refresh rate, a higher power processor is in use, a processor is in a higher power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking more frequent sensor measurements).

[0294] The computer system detects (904) an event (e.g., a user input, movement of the computer system (e.g., or a portion of the computer system) that satisfies a set of motion criteria, an upward movement of the computer system, a downward movement of the computer system, a lateral (e.g., left and / or right) movement of the computer system, a rotation of the computer system, a wrist movement, and / or as depicted in FIGS. 8B-8F). In some embodiments, the event includes (e.g., is or is based on) the computer system being covered (e.g., for a predetermined amount of time and / or by a hand of a user and / or other object).

[0295] In response to detecting the event, the computer system displays (906) via the display generation component, the time user interface (e.g. 808a) with the user interface region (e.g. 808b) having a second appearance that is different from the first appearance (e.g., as depicted in FIGS. 8A-8F), wherein the second appearance is based on simulated light emitted from the simulated light source at a second position (e.g., location, distance, angle, orientation,) relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a), wherein the second position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object is differentfrom the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., relative to a portion, point, surface of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object, and / or as depicted in FIGS. 8A-8F). In some embodiments, the simulated light source (e.g., a graphical representation of the simulated light source) is not displayed on the time user interface (e.g., the time user interface is displayed without displaying a representation of the simulated light source). In some embodiments, simulated light from the simulated light source is displayed on the time user interface (e.g., as depicted in FIGS. 8A-8F). In some embodiments, displaying the time user interface includes displaying a simulated lighting effect that is based on the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) (e.g., simulated light reflecting from the simulated three-dimensional reflective object). In some embodiments, the simulated lighting effect is based on a position of the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) (e.g., relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object), a color of the simulated light source, and / or a brightness of the simulated light source (e.g., in accordance with the simulated light source having at first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional object, the simulated three-dimensional object and / or the simulated lighting effect has a first appearance; and in accordance with the simulated light source having a second position different from the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional object, the simulated three-dimensional object and / or the simulated lighting effect has a second appearance that is different from the first appearance).

[0296] In some embodiments, when the second position is closer to the simulated three- dimensional object than the first position, the simulated lighting effect is brighter after detecting the event. In some embodiments, when the second position is closer to the simulated three-dimensional object than the first position, the appearance of the simulated three-dimensional object is brighter after detecting the event. In some embodiments, when the second position is farther from the simulated three-dimensional object than the first position, the simulated lighting effect is less bright after detecting the event (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 8B-8F relative to FIG. 8A). In some embodiments, when the second position is farther from the simulated three-dimensional object than the first position, the appearance of the simulated three-dimensional object is less bright after detecting the event (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 8B-8F relative to FIG. 8A). In some embodiments, the simulated lighting effect is relatively brighter when an angle between light incident on a surface point of the simulated three-dimensional object and a line perpendicular to the surface point (e.g., an angle of incidence and / or an illumination angle) is smaller (e.g., 2 degrees, 5 degrees, 10 degrees, or20 degrees) than when the angle is larger (e.g., 60 degrees, 70 degrees, 80 degrees, or 85 degrees) (e.g., as shown in FIG. 8A relative to FIGS. 8B-8F). In some embodiments, the appearance of the simulated three-dimensional object is relatively brighter when an angle between light incident on a surface point of the simulated three-dimensional object and a line perpendicular to the surface point (e.g., an angle of incidence and / or an illumination angle) is smaller (e.g., 2 degrees, 5 degrees, 10 degrees, or 20 degrees) than when the angle is larger (e.g., 60 degrees, 70 degrees, 80 degrees, or 85 degrees) (e.g., as shown in FIG. 8A relative to FIGS. 8B-8F).

[0297] In some embodiments, in accordance with the detected event including a rotation of the computer system, the position of the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) is moved in a curved (e.g., circular) motion around the simulated three- dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a). In some embodiments, in accordance with the detected event including a rotation of the computer system, the appearance of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) includes light moving from a first portion on the three-dimensional reflective object to a second portion on the three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 8A-8E). In some embodiments, in accordance with the detected event including a first speed of movement of the computer system, the position of the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) is moved at a first speed, and in accordance with the detected event including a second speed of movement of the computer system, the position of the simulated light source is moved at a second speed, where the first speed of movement is greater than the second speed of movement and the first speed is greater than the second speed. In some embodiments, in accordance with the detected event including a first speed of movement of the computer system, the appearance of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) and / or the simulated lighting effect is modified at a first speed, and in accordance with the detected event including a second speed of movement of the computer system, the appearance of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) and / or the simulated lighting effect is modified at second speed, where the first speed of movement is greater than the second speed of movement and the first speed is greater than the second speed.

[0298] Displaying a time user interface including a user interface region (e.g., 808b) having an appearance that represents a view of a simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) having a first appearance that is based on simulated light emitted from asimulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) at a first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a), and further, in response to detecting an event, displaying the time user interface with the user interface region (e.g., 808b) having a second appearance, that is different from the first appearance, wherein the second appearance is based on simulated light emitted from the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) at a second position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a), wherein the second position relative to the simulated three- dimensional reflective object is different from the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object updates the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby providing improved visual feedback to the user, and preventing permanent discoloration (e.g., burn-in) on the display screen based on varying display patterns and / or colors.

[0299] In some embodiments, the event includes (e.g., is or is based on) a movement of the computer system detected via one or more sensors of the computer system (e.g., one or more sensors for detecting motion such as an accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer and / or internal measurement unit). In some embodiments, the movement includes rotation, a change in position, and / or a change in orientation of at least a portion of the computer system (e.g., movement of a wrist to which the computer system is attached and / or motion that is determined to be indicative of a wrist movement in a particular direction and / or a wrist rotation around a particular axis). Detecting an event including movement of the computer system updates the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0300] In some embodiments, in response to detecting the event, the computer system changes the appearance of the user interface region (e.g., 808b) to the second appearance to have an updated appearance that corresponds to moving the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) from the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) (e.g., moved along an x-axis, a y-axis, and / or a z-axis) to the second position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object, wherein movement of the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) between the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object and the second position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object is based on the movement of thecomputer system (e.g., if the movement includes a movement of the computer system in a first direction, the appearance corresponds to moving the light source in a corresponding direction (e.g., in the same direction as the first direction, in a direction within a threshold angle of the first direction, or in an opposite direction to the first direction); e.g., if the speed of movement of the computer system is slower, the appearance corresponds to a slower speed of movement of the light source, whereas if the speed of movement of the computer system is greater, the appearance corresponds to a greater speed of movement of the light source; e.g., if the computer system moves a lesser distance, the appearance corresponds to the light source moving a lesser distance, whereas if the computer system is moved a greater distance, the appearance corresponds to the light source moving a greater distance; e.g., if the movement includes a greater magnitude of rotation of the computer system, the appearance corresponds to the light source moving a greater amount (e.g., in the same direction of rotation, in a direction of rotation within a threshold angle of the rotation of the computer system, or in an opposite direction of rotation), whereas if the movement includes a lesser magnitude of rotation of the computer system, the appearance corresponds to the light source moving a lesser amount (e.g., in the same direction of rotation, in a direction of rotation within a threshold angle of the rotation of the computer system, or in an opposite direction of rotation)). Moving the simulated light source from the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object to the second position relative to the three-dimensional reflective object based on movement of the computer system updates the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0301] In some embodiments, the event includes (e.g., is or is based on) a transition of the computer system from a first power state (e.g., an active state, a normal operating state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state) to a second power state (e.g., a lower power state, a sleep state, a resting state, and / or a reduced power state) (e.g., as shown in FIG. 8F relative to FIGS. 8A-8E), wherein the computer system consumes less power in the second power state than in the first power state (e.g., because in the active state, a display has a higher brightness, a display has a faster refresh rate, a higher power processor is in use, a processor is in a higher power state, and / or one or more additional sensors are taking more frequent sensor measurements). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting a wrist down motion (e.g., a wrist or hand down gesture and / or motion that satisfies a set of motion criteria that indicates that a wrist orhand of a user has been lowered) (e.g., as shown in FIG. 8F). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting that the computer system (or, in some embodiments, a display of the computer system) is covered (e.g., in response to detecting a hand cover gesture and / or in response to detecting that the computer system has been covered for a predetermined amount of time). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state in response to detecting that the computer system has been lowered (e.g., as shown in FIG. 8F) (e.g., to a resting position, a surface, and / or a user’s pocket). In some embodiments, the computer system transitions to the second power state after a period in which the computer system does not receive user inputs or detect the occurrence of one or more conditions that keep the computer system in an active state, normal operating state, full-power state, on state, and / or awake state. Detecting an event including a transition of the computer system from a first power state to a second power state, wherein the computer system consumes less power in the second power state than in the first power state updates the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0302] In some embodiments, in response to detecting the event, changing the appearance of the user interface region (e.g., 808b) to the second appearance to have an updated appearance that corresponds to increasing a distance between the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) and the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a), wherein a first distance between the simulated three-dimensional reflective object and the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object is smaller than a second distance between the simulated three-dimensional reflective object and the second position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object. In some embodiments, the distance between the simulated light source (e.g., 816, 820a, 820b, and / or 820c) and the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) is based on a specific point on the three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., a center point of the object or a point on a surface of the three-dimensional reflective object closest to the simulated light source). Increasing a distance between the simulated light source and the simulated three-dimensional reflective object updates the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

[0303] In some embodiments, the first appearance includes a first simulated lighting effect that corresponds to light falling on a first portion of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object (e.g., 812a) (e.g., a direct lighting effect, an indirect lighting effect, a diffused lighting effect, a form shadow effect, a core shadow effect, an occlusion shadow effect, and / or a cast shadow effect), the second appearance includes a second simulated lighting effect that corresponds to light falling on a second portion of the simulated three- dimensional reflective object (e.g., a direct lighting effect, an indirect lighting effect, a diffused lighting effect, a form shadow effect, a core shadow effect, an occlusion shadow effect, and / or a cast shadow effect), the first simulated lighting effect is based on the first position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object, the second simulated lighting effect is based on the second position relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object, the first simulated lighting effect is different from the second simulated lighting effect (e.g., the second simulated lighting effect includes a different type of lighting effect, a different appearance of the same type of lighting effect, a different type of shadow effect, and / or a different appearance of the same type of shadow effect than the first simulated lighting effect), and the first portion of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object is different from the second portion of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object. In some embodiments, the first portion of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object and the second portion of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object include overlapping portions. In some embodiments, the first portion of the simulated three- dimensional reflective object and the second portion of the simulated three-dimensional reflective object do not include overlapping portions. Displaying different simulated lighting effects on different portions of the three-dimensional reflective object based on the first and second positions relative to the simulated three-dimensional reflective object updates the time user interface without requiring the user to provide inputs to manually edit the time user interface, providing improved visual feedback to the user and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an operation.
