DEVICE, METHOD, AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR MANIPULATING USER INTERFACES BASED ON UNLOCK INPUTS
Publication number: 20230409160Abstract: An electronic device with a display and a fingerprint sensor displays a fingerprint enrollment interface and detects, on the fingerprint sensor, a plurality of finger gestures performed with a finger. The device collects fingerprint information from the plurality of finger gestures performed with the finger. After collecting the fingerprint information, the device determines whether the collected fingerprint information is sufficient to enroll a fingerprint of the finger. When the collected fingerprint information for the finger is sufficient to enroll the fingerprint of the finger, the device enrolls the fingerprint of the finger with the device. When the collected fingerprint information for the finger is not sufficient to enroll the fingerprint of the finger, the device displays a message in the fingerprint enrollment interface prompting a user to perform one or more additional finger gestures on the fingerprint sensor with the finger.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Byron HAN, Matthew E. SHEPHERD, Imran CHAUDHRI, Gregory N. CHRISTIE, Patrick L. COFFMAN, Craig M. FEDERIGHI, Matthew H. GAMBLE, Brittany D. PAINE, Brendan J. LANGOULANT, Craig A. MARCINIAK, Donald W. PITSCHEL, Daniel O.

Patent number: 6708332Abstract: Code module interfaces are provided which allow a user to adjust the functionality of a program at run-time. The code module interfaces (CMIs) can be selectively activated by a user at run-time. Then, the control software will call the CMIs at various instances, for example, at startup, after each state change in the control software, at idle time and when the control software has completed all of its tasks. Alternatively, when each CMI is loaded, it can specify at which state change(s) that CMI is to be called to increase speed of operation.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2001Date of Patent: March 16, 2004Assignee: Apple Computer, Inc.Inventors: Colm J. Murphy, James Kateley, Byron Han, Ken Fitzgerald-Smith
