  • Publication number: 20240152268
    Abstract: An electronic device, while displaying messaging user interface that includes a conversation transcript of a messaging session between a user of the electronic device and at least one other user, a plurality of electronic stickers, and a message-input area, detects a drag gesture that starts while a focus selector is at a first location in the messaging user interface that corresponds to an electronic sticker in the plurality of electronic stickers, and in response, moves the electronic sticker in the first direction in accordance with movement of the drag gesture. Upon termination of the drag gesture while the focus selector is at a second location in the messaging user interface, if the second location is within the conversation transcript, the electronic device places the electronic sticker in the conversation transcript at a location based on the second location, and otherwise ceases to display the electronic sticker.

  • Patent number: 11954323
    Abstract: An electronic device displays a messaging user interface of a messaging application, including a conversation transcript of a messaging session between a user of the electronic device and another user, a message-input area, and a representation corresponding to the other user. In response to detecting a first user input corresponding to the representation of the other user, a menu is displayed that contains an activatable menu item for initiating a payment action with the other user. While displaying the menu, in response to detecting a second user input corresponding to the activatable menu item for initiating a payment action with the first other user, a user interface configured to initiate sending of payment to, and/or requesting payment from, the first other user is displayed.

  • Patent number: 11916861
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a method for providing interactive notification elements. A device receives a first message. The device displays a first notification element in a first area of a user interface. The first notification element comprises information about the received first message. While displaying the first notification element, the device displays a first user interface (UI) element for initiating a reply to the first message. The first UI element includes a text entry field and an audio entry button for initiating recording of audio; and responsive to receiving a selection of the first UI element. In accordance with a determination that the selection includes selection of the audio entry button, the device initiates recording of audio and replacing the text entry field with a representation of the audio being recorded.

  • Patent number: 11726634
    Abstract: An electronic device with one or more processors and memory, and in communication with a display and an audio system presents, under control of the electronic device, via the audio system, a first audio output, the first audio output having a volume and an audio property other than volume (e.g., a reverberation time, a low-pass filter cutoff, or a stereo balance). While the audio system presents a first audio output, the device receives an input that corresponds to a request to present a second audio output, and in response, the device concurrently presents, via the audio system, an adjusted version of the first audio output in which the audio property other than volume of the first audio output has been adjusted and the second audio output.

  • Publication number: 20230080470
    Abstract: An electronic device detects a first input directed to a first affordance in a set of one or more affordances displayed on a display. In response to detecting the first input, the electronic device initiates presentation of a first audio output having a first audio profile. The electronic device later detects a second input directed to a second affordance in the set. In response to detecting the second input and if audio alteration criteria are satisfied, the electronic device causes: (i) presentation of altered first audio output having an altered audio profile and (ii) presentation of a second audio output having a second audio profile. In response to detecting the second input and if the audio alteration criteria are not satisfied, the electronic device causes: (i) continued presentation of the first audio output and (ii) presentation of a third audio output having a third audio profile.
