  • Patent number: 11474626
    Abstract: Button functionalities for user interfaces, e.g., for use with a portable multifunction device, are disclosed. Exemplary button functionalities are described for an electronic device with a display, a rotatable and depressible input mechanism, and/or a button. Different device features may be accessed, depending on whether the rotatable and depressible input mechanism or the button is activated, and further depending on whether the activation represents a single press, a double press, or an extended press on the rotatable and depressible input mechanism or the button.

  • Publication number: 20220262509
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to aggregating and sharing wellness data. The wellness data can be received by a user device from any number of sensors external or internal to the user device, from a user manually entering the wellness data, or from other users or entities. The user device can securely store the wellness data on the user device and transmit the wellness data to be stored on a remote database. A user of the device can share some or all of the wellness data with friends, relatives, caregivers, healthcare providers, or the like. The user device can further display a user's wellness data in an aggregated view of different types of wellness data. Wellness data of other users can also be viewed if authorizations from those users have been received.

  • Patent number: 11379113
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to selecting text. An example method includes displaying, a focus indicator at a first location; while displaying the focus indicator, detecting a gesture at a first touch location that corresponds to the focus indicator; while detecting the gesture, detecting movement of the gesture to a second touch location; in response to detecting movement of the gesture to the second touch location: in accordance with a determination that the second touch location is in a first direction, moving the focus indicator to a second indicator location; in accordance with a determination that the second touch location is in a second direction, moving the focus indicator to a third location; while the focus indicator is at a fourth location, detecting liftoff of the gesture; and in response to detecting the liftoff, maintaining display of the focus indicator at the fourth location.

  • Publication number: 20220043560
    Abstract: A method includes displaying a user interface including a plurality of application icons for launching application programs. The plurality of application icons include a first application icon displayed at a first size and a second application icon displayed at a second size, the first and second application icons arranged in a first arrangement. While displaying the user interface, detecting a set of one or more user inputs. In response to the set of one or more user inputs, rearranging the first and second application icons into a second arrangement, different than the first arrangement, where rearranging the first and second application icons includes displaying the first application icon at a third size, greater than the first size, and displaying the second application icon at a fourth size, greater than the second size.

  • Patent number: 11157135
    Abstract: A method includes displaying, on a touch-sensitive display, a plurality of application icons in a first configuration at locations on a hexagonal grid in relation to an origin. The application icons have corresponding ranks based on their respective locations in relation to the origin. In response to detecting a movement of a user contact from a first position to a second position: the display of a first application icon at a first location is translated to a second position; a second configuration of the application icons is determined based on the first location and the second location; and the display of the application icons is transitioned from the first configuration to the second configuration. In the second configuration, no application icon except the first application icon is displaced by more than one location relative to the first configuration.

  • Publication number: 20210240332
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a cursor interacts with user interface objects on an electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device selectively displays a cursor in a user interface. In some embodiments, an electronic device displays a cursor while manipulating objects in the user interface. In some embodiments, an electronic device dismisses or switches applications using a cursor. In some embodiments, an electronic device displays user interface elements in response to requests to move a cursor beyond an edge of the display.
