  • Patent number: 11966578
    Abstract: An electronic device displays, on a touch-sensitive display, a user interface for an application. The electronic device, while displaying the user interface for the application, detects a touch gesture that includes movement of a contact on the touch-sensitive display at least partially over the user interface for the application. The electronic device, in response to detecting the touch gesture, in accordance with a determination that the touch gesture meets first system navigation criteria and video is playing in the application when the touch gesture is detected, concurrently displays a home screen user interface and a representation of the video that is playing in the application. The electronic device, in accordance with a determination that the touch gesture meets the first system navigation criteria and there is not video playing in the application when the touch gesture is detected, displays the home screen user interface without displaying representation of the video.

  • Patent number: 11928486
    Abstract: A client device can generate a graphical user interface (GUI) including a set of form fields. The client device can receive user input including a first set of form values for the set of form fields from a first entity via the GUI. The client device can also receive an electronic communication via a network, the electronic communication including a second set of form values for the set of form fields as input by a second entity on a remote client device. The client device can compare the second form values to the first form values to identify a mismatch between the first set of form values and the second set of form values. In response to identifying the mismatch, the client device can update the GUI to include a graphical marker indicating the mismatch between the first set of form values and the second set of form values.

  • Patent number: 11899842
    Abstract: Method for generating haptic feedback responses starts with processor causing communication interface for communication session to be displayed on first user interface and on a second user interface. Processor detects first touch input on first user interface and second touch input on second user interface. Processor monitors location of the first touch input on the first user interface and location of the second touch input on the second user interface. Processor determines distance between location of first touch input on first user interface and location on first user interface corresponding to location of second touch input on second user interface. Processor causes the first user interface and the second user interface to generate a haptic feedback response based on the distance. The haptic feedback response increases in intensity or speed as the distance decreases and decreases in intensity or speed as the distance increases. Other embodiments are described herein.

  • Patent number: 11886685
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing desktop environments of computer operating systems (OSs) are disclosed. A desktop of a graphical user interface (GUI) can be presented at a desktop layer of a window stack. Container(s) (e.g., desktop window(s)) that include one or more icons can be implemented as fenced off regions of the desktop, allowing users to interact with the containers and icons within while viewing the desktop. When the desktop is covered by other windows in the window stack, a depressed hotkey combination can cause the container(s) to pop above the other visible windows, allowing the user to interact with the containers and icons without needing to minimize, close, or move the other visible windows. Releasing the hotkey combination permits the container(s) to move back down to their original position in the window stack.

  • Patent number: 11882006
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for a user interface for displaying a topology representation of infrastructure of a 5G Radio Access Network (RAN), such as an Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) 5G infrastructure. For example, a computing system displays, via a user interface, first icons, each icon of the first icons representing first components providing Level-1 functionality for the O-RAN 5G infrastructure, such as non-real-time RAN Intelligent Controllers (RICs). The computing system receives, via the user interface, a selection of a first icon of the first icons. In response to the selection, the computing system displays, via the user interface, second icons, each icon of the second icons representing second components managed by a component of the first components corresponding to the selected first icon. The second components provide Level-2 functionality for the O-RAN 5G infrastructure, such as near-real-time RICs.
