  • Publication number: 20240004530
    Abstract: An electronic device may display a first lap time representation, and may move the first lap time representation in accordance with a first amount of elapsed time. While moving the first lap time representation, the electronic device may detect a lap input. In response to the lap input, the electronic device may cease movement of the first lap time representation, display a second lap time representation, and move the second lap time representation in accordance with a second amount of elapsed time. A relative positioning of the first lap time representation and the second lap time representation may correspond to a difference between a first lap time and a second lap time. In some embodiments, the electronic device may update the timescales of lap time representation(s) in accordance with a rotational input. In some embodiments, the electronic device may update a timer duration setting in accordance with a rotational input.

  • Publication number: 20230409160
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20230299989
    Abstract: Avatars may be displayed in a multiuser communication session using various spatial modes. One technique for presenting avatars includes presenting avatars such that an attention direction of the avatar is retargeted to match the intent of the remote user corresponding to the avatar. Another technique for presenting avatars includes a pinned mode in which a spatial relationship between one or more avatars remains displayed in a consistent spatial relationship to a local user regardless of movements of the local user. Another technique for presenting avatars includes providing user-selectable presentation modes between a room scale mode and a stationary mode for presenting a representation of a multiuser communication session.

  • Publication number: 20230273985
    Abstract: In some examples, a change in a current viewpoint of a user is detected while a three-dimensional environment is visible. In some examples, in accordance with a determination that at least a threshold amount of the object is visible from the viewpoint of the user, user authorization of the secure operation, using a virtual user interface object, is enabled. In some examples, the user is biometrically authenticated, at a first time, to perform a first type of biometric authentication. In some examples, a request to perform the secure operation is received at a second time. In some examples, in accordance with a determination that the user met respective criteria between the first time and the second time, the secure operation is performed without performing, after receiving the request, the first type of biometric authentication.

  • Patent number: 11740785
    Abstract: An electronic device, while displaying a first user interface that includes a plurality of activatable user interface objects, detects an input by a contact on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a first activatable user interface object, which is associated with a first control function having a first value as a current value of the control function. In response to an input that meets toggle criteria, the device toggles the first control function between a first state based on the first value for the control function and a second state. In response to an input that meets control adjustment criteria, the device replaces the first user interface with a second user interface for selecting among a set of available values for the control function. In response to movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface, a current value for the control function is changed.

  • Publication number: 20230236723
    Abstract: A device with a display receives a first communication at the device while the device is in a locked state. In response to receiving the first communication at the device while the device is in the locked state, the device generates, for display in a respective user interface, a first notification for the first communication received at the device, wherein the first notification includes content in the first communication. While displaying the first notification in the respective user interface, the device receives information that indicates a sender of the first communication is preparing another communication.
