The present invention relates to managing workspaces in a
user interface. A method is provided, comprising, at an electronic device having a display and one or more input devices: displaying, on the display, a
user interface for managing virtual workspaces, wherein displaying the
user interface includes concurrently displaying: representations of first and second virtual workspaces, representations of a plurality of application windows associated with the first
virtual workspace, and a selectable user interface object for generating a new
virtual workspace; while displaying the user interface for managing virtual workspaces, detecting a
user input via the one or more input devices at a location corresponding to the selectable user interface object; and in response to detecting the
user input, updating the user interface for managing virtual workspaces on the display to include a representation of a third
virtual workspace, wherein the third virtual
workspace is different from the first virtual
workspace and the second virtual
workspace.
