Abstract: An electronic device with a display and a fingerprint sensor displays, on the display, a first user interface. While displaying the first user interface on the display, the device detects movement of a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor. In response to detecting movement of the fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor: in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a first direction, the device navigates through the first user interface; and in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a second direction different from the first direction, the device displays a second user interface different from the first user interface on the display.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure Flexible electronic devices may be provided. A flexible electronic device may include a flexible display, a flexible housing and one or more flexible internal components configured to allow the flexible electronic 5 device to be deformed. Flexible displays may include flexible display layers, flexible touch-sensitive layers, and flexible display cover layers. The flexible housing may be a multi-stable flexible housing having one or more stable positions. The flexible housing may include a 10 configurable support structure that, when engaged, provides a rigid support structure for the flexible housing. The flexible internal components may include flexible batteries, flexible printed circuits or other flexible components. A flexible battery may include 15 flexible and rigid portions or may include a lubricious separator layer that provides flexibility for the flexible battery. A flexible printed circuit may include flexible and rigid portions or openings that allow some rigid portions to flex with respect to other rigid portions.

Abstract: Devices, methods and graphical user interfaces for manipulating user interfaces based on fingerprint sensor inputs are provided. While a display of an electronic device with a fingerprint sensor displays a first user interface, the device may detect movement of a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor. In accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a first direction, the device allows navigating through the first user interface, and in accordance with a determination that the movement of the fingerprint is in a second direction different from the first direction, the device allows displaying a second user interface different from the first user interface on the display.

Abstract: Electronic device 1100, e.g. a tablet computer, has a display overlaid by an outer protective layer 1106 and a magnetic element. A cover 1300 for the device has a single piece flap comprising a first magnetic element 1326 in a first portion 1304 and a magnetic element 1324 in a second portion 1310 opposite to the first portion. The second portion is also pivotably attachable to the tablet. The magnetic element in the tablet and first magnetic element in the cover form a magnetic circuit through the outside protective layer 1106 to attach the flap to the outer layer. The cover forms a structure for supporting the tablet in an operational orientation when the flap is folded such that the first magnet 1326 and the magnetic element 1324 form a magnetic circuit. Magnetic sensor 118 detects when the flap is in contact to the layer and present visual content accordingly.
