  • Publication number: 20190265849
    Abstract: An electronic device displays at least one device initialization screen. After displaying the at least one device initialization screen, the electronic device displays an instruction screen instructing a user to pair the external device with the electronic device. The electronic device sends first data via wireless communication, displays a pattern comprising identifying information of the electronic device, and receives second data indicating that the external device and the electronic device have been paired using the first data. After receiving the second data, the electronic device provides an aural or haptic indication that the electronic device and the external device have been paired. In some examples, the electronic device is a wearable electronic device and the external device is a smartphone. Pairing the electronic device and the external device may allow the devices to exchange information and operate interactively with one another.

  • Publication number: 20190212892
    Abstract: An electronic device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface displays a first user interface of a first application. The device detects a first input by a first contact on the touch-sensitive surface that meets navigation-gesture criteria requiring that the first input includes a movement of the first contact across the touch-sensitive surface that crosses a boundary of a predefined edge region of the touch-sensitive surface in order for the navigation-gesture criteria to be met. In response, the device: in accordance with a determination that the first application is not protected, ceases to display the first user interface of the first application and displays a respective other user interface on the display; and in accordance with a determination that the first application is protected, maintains display of the first user interface of the first application without displaying the respective other user interface.

  • Patent number: 10338772
    Abstract: An electronic device with a display, a touch-sensitive surface, and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts: displays an application launching user interface; detects a first touch input that includes detecting a first contact at a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a first application icon for launching a first application that is associated with one or more corresponding quick actions; in response to detecting the first touch input, in accordance with a determination that the first touch input meets one or more application-launch criteria, launches the first application; and, in accordance with a determination that the first touch input meets one or more quick-action-display criteria, which include a criterion that is met when the characteristic intensity of the first contact increases above a respective intensity threshold, concurrently displays one or more quick action objects associated with the first application along with the first application icon.

  • Patent number: 10331336
    Abstract: An electronic device displays a messaging user interface of a messaging application on the display, the messaging user interface including a conversation transcript of a messaging session between a user of the electronic device and at least one other user, a message-input area, and an icon for an interactive application that is displayed within the conversation transcript. While displaying the messaging user interface, the device detects an input that activates the icon for the interactive application; in response to detecting the input that activates the icon for the interactive application, the device displays a user interface for the interactive application in a first state.

  • Publication number: 20190146643
    Abstract: An application launching user interface that includes a plurality of application icons for launching corresponding applications is displayed. A first touch input is detected on a first application icon of the plurality of application icons. The first application icon is for launching a first application that is associated with one or more corresponding quick actions. If the first touch input meets one or more application-launch criteria which require that the first touch input has ended without having met a first input threshold, the first application is launched in response to the first touch input. If the first touch input meets one or more quick-action-display criteria which require that the first touch input meets the first input threshold, one or more quick action objects associated with the first application are concurrently displayed along with the first application icon without launching the first application, in response to the first touch input.

  • Patent number: 10268342
    Abstract: An electronic device with a display, a touch-sensitive surface, and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive surface: displays a first user interface that includes a plurality of selectable objects; while a focus selector is at a location that corresponds to a respective selectable object, detects an input that includes detecting a contact on the touch-sensitive surface; and in response to detecting the input: in accordance with a determination that detecting the input includes detecting an increase in intensity of the contact that meets intensity criteria, displays a menu that includes contact information for the respective selectable object overlaid on top of the first user interface; and in accordance with a determination that detecting the input includes detecting a liftoff of the contact without meeting the intensity criteria, replaces display of the first user interface with display of a second user interface.
