  • Patent number: 11895082
    Abstract: A device implementing the subject system may include at least one processor configured to receive, by a first system process, a first network address that corresponds to a domain name that was resolved by a second system process, the resolving having been responsive to a resolution request therefor by an application process. The at least one processor may be further configured to receive, by the first system process, a second network address for which a network connection was opened by the application process. The at least one processor may be further configured to, responsive to determining that the application process opened a network connection for a network address for which the application process did not provide, to the second system process, a resolution request for the corresponding domain name, provide, by the first system process, an indication of the network address in conjunction with an indication of the application process.

  • Patent number: 11231831
    Abstract: An electronic device displays a content region including first content that contains an image; and, while displaying the first content, detects an input at a location that corresponds to the location of the image. In response, the electronic device, in accordance with a determination that the input includes an intensity above a respective threshold and that the image is associated with a link to second content that is different from the first content, displays a preview of the second content while maintaining display of at least a portion of the first content in the content region; and, in accordance with a determination that the input includes an intensity above the respective threshold and that the image is not associated with a link to additional content, displays an enlarged version of the image while maintaining display of at least a portion of the first content in the content region.

  • Patent number: 10936795
    Abstract: A snapshot of a page is stored in response to navigation away from the page. When the user navigates back to the page, the snapshot is displayed while the page is loaded. When the page is sufficiently loaded, the snapshot is replaced by the (fully or partially) loaded page. Determining whether the page is sufficiently loaded is based on monitoring of pre-selected criteria.

  • Patent number: 9830048
    Abstract: An electronic device, while displaying a user interface that corresponds to at least a portion of a web page on a display, detects a touch input on a touch-sensitive surface at a first location that corresponds to the displayed portion of the web page on the display. While detecting the touch input on the touch-sensitive surface, the electronic device detects an intensity of the touch input on the touch-sensitive surface, determines whether the intensity of the touch input on the touch-sensitive surface has changed from below a first intensity threshold to above the first intensity threshold, and in response to determining that the intensity of the touch input on the touch-sensitive surface has changed from below the first intensity threshold to above the first intensity threshold, generates a force down event that is distinct from a mouse down event.
