  • Patent number: 11182017
    Abstract: An electronic device with a display, a touch-sensitive surface, and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive surface displays a first user interface of a first software application, detects an input on the touch-sensitive surface while displaying the first user interface, and, in response to detecting the input while displaying the first user interface, performs a first operation in accordance with a determination that the input satisfies intensity input criteria including that the input satisfies a first intensity threshold and the input remains on the touch-sensitive surface for a first predefined time period, and performs a second operation in accordance with a determination that the input satisfies tap criteria including that the input ceases to remain on the touch-sensitive surface during the first predefined time period.

  • Patent number: 10503564
    Abstract: Techniques for handling security of an application and its extension are described. In one embodiment, an application manager of an operating system running within a data processing system launches an application in a first sandboxed environment based on a first security profile associated with the application. In response to receiving a request from the application for accessing a function of an application extension that is associated with the application, the application manager launches the application extension in a second sandboxed environment based on a second security profile associated with the application extension. The application manager is to individually enforce security and manage resources of the application and the application extension in the first and second sandboxed environments based on the first and second security profiles, respectively. The second security profile specifies resources fewer than the first security profile.

  • Publication number: 20190012036
    Abstract: An electronic device displays a user interface on a display. The user interface includes one or more user interface objects. The device detects an input on the touch-sensitive surface at a location that corresponds to a user interface object, including detecting a change in intensity of the input on the touch-sensitive surface from a first intensity to a second intensity. The device, in response to detecting the input, obtains a change in a value of a respective simulated physical parameter of a physics model that is driven by the change in intensity of the input on the touch-sensitive surface; and updates an appearance of the user interface by progressing an animation between a first state and a second state based on the change in the respective simulated physical parameter of the physics model.

  • Patent number: 10152208
    Abstract: An electronic device displays, on a display, a user interface. While displaying the user interface, the device detects an input on the touch-sensitive surface; and, in response to detecting the input while displaying the first user interface, and while detecting the input, in accordance with a determination that the input satisfies an activation intensity threshold, performs a first operation. The activation intensity threshold includes a first intensity threshold component that decreases from a first intensity value over time.

  • Patent number: 10095343
    Abstract: An electronic device detects a change in intensity of an input at a location corresponding to a first user interface element associated with a user-interaction behavior model; generates, with an application-independent software module, output associated with the first user interface element determined in accordance with the change in intensity of the input and the user-interaction behavior model, including a first user-interaction component behavior and a second user-interaction component behavior; detects a change in intensity of an input at a location corresponding to a second user interface element associated with a subset of the user-interaction component behaviors; obtains, from the application-independent software module, an indication of whether the change in intensity of the input has met conditions associated with the first user-interaction component behavior; and updates, based on the indication, an appearance of the second user interface element based on the first user-interaction component behavio

  • Patent number: 10067653
    Abstract: An electronic device displays, on a display, a user interface. While displaying the user interface, the device detects an input on the touch-sensitive surface; and, in response to detecting the input while displaying the first user interface, and while detecting the input, in accordance with a determination that the input satisfies first timing criteria and first intensity input criteria, performs a first operation. The first timing criteria require that the input remain on the touch-sensitive surface while a first time period elapses. The first intensity input criteria require that the input satisfy a first intensity threshold at an end of or subsequent to the first time period.

  • Patent number: 9632664
    Abstract: An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, a display, and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts: displays a plurality of user interface objects in a first user interface; detects a contact while a focus selector is at a location of a first user interface object; and, while the focus selector is at the location of the first user interface object: detects an increase in a characteristic intensity of the contact to a first intensity threshold; in response, visually obscures the plurality of user interface objects, other than the first user interface object, while maintaining display of the first user interface object; detects that the characteristic intensity of the contact continues to increase above the first intensity threshold; and, in response, dynamically increases the amount of visual obscuring of the plurality of user interface objects, other than the first user interface object.

  • Publication number: 20170046038
    Abstract: An electronic device displays a user interface of a first third-party application that runs within an operating system. The device detects an input on a touch-sensitive surface at a location that corresponds to a first portion of the user interface of the first third-party application. If the input meets first gesture recognition criteria and the input meets first intensity criteria specified by the first third-party application, the device performs the first operation associated with the first portion of the user interface of the first third-party application. If the input meets the first gesture recognition criteria but does not meet the first intensity criteria specified by the first third-party application, the device forgoes performance of the first operation associated with the first portion of the user interface of the first third-party application.
