Abstract: A computer system displays a first view of a three-dimensional environment, including a first user interface object, that when activated by a user input meeting first criteria, causes performance of a first operation. While displaying the first view, the computer system detects first movement of a hand in a physical environment, and in response, changes an appearance of the first user interface object in the first view based on the first movement, including: in accordance with a determination that the first movement meets the first criteria requiring the hand move in a first manner, performing and indicating performance of the first operation; and in accordance with a determination that the first movement does not meet the first criteria, moving the first user interface object away from a position in the three-dimensional environment corresponding to a location of the hand in the physical environment without performing the first operation.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a first electronic device facilitates tracking of a second electronic device. In some embodiments, when the first electronic device and the second electronic device are within a specified distance from each other, the second electronic device automatically generates an alert to indicate its current location. In some embodiments, the alert includes audio and/or tactical feedback.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to providing audio alerts with electronic devices. An audio alert may be provided, in part, using power management operations that manage one or more both of the instantaneous power usage for providing the audio alert, and the long-term power usage for providing the audio alert.

Abstract: A wearable audio output device that includes a microphone and one or more input devices detects an input via the one or more input devices. In response to detecting the input and in accordance with a determination that the input is a first type of input, the wearable audio output device adjusts a mute state of the microphone for a first audio function that uses the microphone without adjusting the mute state of the microphone for a second audio function that uses the microphone. In response to detecting the input and in accordance with a determination that the input is not the first type of input, the wearable audio output device forgoes adjusting the mute state of the microphone for the first audio function that uses the microphone.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to interacting with audio data via motion inputs. In some embodiments, methods, devices, and techniques are provided for detecting motion inputs to interact with audio notifications, providing audio feedback for detected motion gestures, and detecting motion inputs in spatial audio arrangements.

Abstract: A computer system causes output of audio information from a first application to a set of one or more audio output devices in accordance with a first audio output mode previously selected for the first application using a system audio output setting control. After, the computer system receives a request to play audio from a second application different from the first application. In response, the computer system causes output of audio information from the second application to the set of one or more audio output devices, including, in accordance with a determination that a second audio output mode, different from the first audio output mode, was previously selected for the second application using the system audio output setting control, causing output of the audio information from the second application via the set of one or more audio output devices in accordance with the second audio output mode.

Abstract: A wearable audio output device includes a first portion configured to be inserted in a user's ear and a second portion that extends from the first portion and includes one or more input devices. The wearable audio output device detects an input via the one or more input devices. In response to detecting the input, and in accordance with a determination that the input is a swipe gesture along the second portion of the wearable audio output device, the wearable audio output device adjusts an output volume for the wearable audio output device based on movement of the swipe gesture along the second portion of the wearable audio output device.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to personalized spatial audio profiles and providing personalized spatial audio.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to electronic devices having speakers. An electronic device may operate the speaker to generate audio output at one or more resonance frequencies of the speaker and/or the electronic device. This can allow the electronic device to generate particularly loud audio outputs while reducing the power consumption used to generate those audio outputs. In order, for example, to help ensure that the audio output is generated at the resonance frequencies, the electronic device can determine the resonance frequencies prior to generating the audio outputs. For example, the electronic device may determine resonance frequencies by obtaining one or more electrical characteristics of an electronic component while operating the speaker, and determine the resonance frequencies based on the obtained electrical characteristics.

In some embodiments, a computer system provides a computer-generated user experience session with particles that move based on breathing characteristics of a user. In some embodiments, a computer system provides a computer-generated user experience session with options selected based on characteristics of an XR environment. In some embodiments, a computer system provides a computer-generated user experience session with a soundscape having randomly selected curated sound components.

Abstract: A computer system outputs audio content via one or more audio output devices.

Abstract: An electronic device displays a user interface for controlling an audio mode for a wearable audio output device. While displaying the user interface, the device electronic outputs first audio using a first audio mode while displaying in the user interface a first indication that the first audio mode is used for the first audio. While displaying the user interface and outputting the first audio using the audio mode, the electronic device receives a request to switch to using a second audio mode. In response, the device outputs second audio using the second audio mode while displaying a second indication that the second audio mode is used for the second audio. While outputting the second audio using the second audio mode and displaying the second indication, the electronic device detects an input, and, in response, selects one of the first audio mode or the second audio mode the active audio mode.
