  • Patent number: 11474674
    Abstract: While displaying a first user interface, in response to detecting a first user input that is directed to a respective location in the first user interface, if the respective location corresponds to a location of a first user interface object that includes application content corresponding to a first application and is preconfigured with one or more predetermined configuration options and the first user input is a first type of input, a computer system displays first controls for changing the one or more configuration options for the first user interface object. If the respective location corresponds to the location of the first user interface object and the first user input is a second type of input, the computer system displays, in a respective user interface different from the first user interface, the first user interface object with the one or more predetermined configuration options.

  • Patent number: 11188202
    Abstract: An electronic device displays a first user interface including a plurality of application icons in accordance with a first layout in the first user interface. While displaying the first user interface, the device detects a first input corresponding to a request to insert a first user interface object that includes application content into the first user interface. If the first input is directed to a first location corresponding to a first set of application icons: the device moves the first set of application icons from the first location to a respective location, where the first set of application icons cannot be directly activated once they have been moved to the respective location, to create space for the first user interface object that includes application content at the first location, and displays the first user interface object at the first location.

  • Patent number: 11137904
    Abstract: While displaying a first page of a home screen user interface in a first reconfiguration mode, the computer system detects a first input that corresponds to a request to enter a second reconfiguration mode, where the availability of pages in the home screen user interface can be changed in accordance with user inputs in the second reconfiguration mode. The computer system displays respective representations of at least two of the plurality of pages of the home screen user interface in the second reconfiguration mode. While displaying the second reconfiguration mode, the computer system detects a second input. If the second input is directed to a second representation of a second page that is displayed in the second reconfiguration mode, and the second input meets first criteria, the computer system displays the second page of the home screen user interface in the first reconfiguration mode.
