  • DYNAMIC WATCH USER INTERFACE
    Publication number: 20190258327
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to facilitate a watch user interface (UI) that adjusts based upon watch orientation. The watch may include user input devices that allow a user to interact with the watch via the UI. The user input devices may be coupled to the watch at various locations, and the UI may rotate and/or otherwise compensate for changes determined in the watch orientation. As the watch is reoriented (e.g., rotated by 180 degrees), the user input devices are moved to new positions with respect to the user interface. The techniques described herein adjust the functionality provided by the user input devices to provide a consistent UI experience regardless of the watch orientation.
    Type: Application
