Abstract: A computer-implemented method for optimizing object placement on a touchscreen graphical user interface when a distracted user selects incorrect coordinates. Through a variety of sensors, a device with a touchscreen graphical user interface may be able to survey the surrounding environment and distinguish specific types of stimuli, that may distract a touchscreen user. The method includes calculating a user distraction score based on the surrounding stimuli and associates it the coordinates of an object on the touchscreen and detecting if the user touched the screen at the wrong location. The placement of the object a user intended to engage on the touchscreen graphical user interface is corrected to the location which the user expects the object to be, based upon the user distraction score and the touchscreen coordinates which the user initially engaged.

The method includes receiving, via a second portion of the UI, a user request to perform an activity that is independent of the viewing of the first media item or the second media item.

Abstract: A computer system for analyzing a paint sample and generating values that describe various attributes of a proposed matching color can comprise instructions for receiving from a coating-measurement instrument one or more coating variables of a target coating. The system can also comprise instructions for calculating coating texture ratings for the multiple respective proposed coating matches. The coating texture ratings can indicate a similarity between the one or more coating texture characteristics of the target coating and respective coating texture characteristics of each of the respective proposed coating matches. Additionally, the system can comprise instructions for sending instructions to generate a user interface that depicts overall rankings of at least a portion of the proposed coating matches. The overall rankings indicate a similarity between the target coating and each of the at least a portion of the proposed coating matches with respect to the coating texture ratings.

Abstract: A first version of a notification associated with an application is displayed. A first input is detected on the first version of the notification. If the first input meets application-launching criteria which require that the first input has ended without having met a first input threshold, launching of the application is initiated in response to the first input. If the first input meets notification expansion criteria which require that the first input meets the first input threshold before an end of the first input is detected, an expanded version of the notification is displayed in response to the first input. A second input is detected on the expanded version of the notification. If the second input is outside of the expanded version of the notification, the expanded version of the notification is dismissed; and if the second input is on the expanded version of the notification, application launching is initiated.
