  • Publication number: 20180074693
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for managing input mechanisms. In some examples, the electronic device transitions from a first mode into a second mode in accordance with a determination that the one or more characteristics of a user input detected via a second input mechanism of the electronic device meet a set of predefined criteria. In the first mode, a first input mechanism of the electronic device is disabled for user input. In the second mode, the first input mechanism of the electronic device is enabled for user input.

  • Publication number: 20170357411
    Abstract: An electronic device with a touch-sensitive display, one or more processors, and memory detects a first user input. In response to detecting the first user input, the device displays on the touch-sensitive display a user interface screen including a first affordance and a second affordance. The device detects a second user input including a contact on the touch-sensitive display. In accordance with a determination that the contact corresponds to selection of the first affordance, the electronic device is caused to turn off. In accordance with a determination that the contact corresponds to selection of the second affordance, the device causes initiation of a telephone call to a determined number.

  • Publication number: 20170354845
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to navigating, viewing, and sharing activity and workout data and interacting with workout and/or activity applications. In some examples, scrolling of activity data is based on the content being displayed. In some examples, friends' activity data may be viewed. In some examples, a notification and workout data for a friend's completed workout is received and displayed. In some example, the activity data received from friends is viewed and managed. In some examples, workout data for a multi-segment workout is displayed in a three-dimensional stack on a map. In some examples, a workout application operates in a limited mode until a touch input is received with a characteristic intensity that is greater than a threshold intensity.

  • Publication number: 20170053542
    Abstract: Exercise-based watch faces and complications for use with a portable multifunction device are disclosed. The methods described herein for exercise-based watch faces and complications provide indications of time and affordances representing applications (e.g., a workout application or a weather application). In response to detecting a user input corresponding to a selection of the affordance (e.g., representing a workout application), a workout routine can optionally be begun. Further disclosed are non-transitory computer-readable storage media, systems, and devices configured to perform the methods described herein, as well as electronic devices related thereto.
