Abstract:
A portable electronic device with a touch-sensitive display is disclosed. One aspect of the invention involves a computer-implemented method in which the portable electronic device: displays an application on the touch-sensitive display; and when the application is in a predefined mode, performs a predefined operation in response to each gesture of a set of multiple distinct gestures on the touch-sensitive display. Another aspect of the invention involves a computer-implemented method in which the portable electronic device: displays a first application; when the first application is in a first mode, performs a first operation upon detecting a first gesture on the touch-sensitive display; and performs the first operation upon detecting a second gesture on the touch-sensitive display, wherein the second gesture is different from the first gesture.
Abstract:
A method, comprising: at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display: detecting a first gesture on the touch screen display; responding to the first gesture by displaying a first soft keyboard, the first soft keyboard containing a plurality of keys, the plurality of keys in the first soft keyboard including primarily letter keys, the plurality of keys in the first soft keyboard including a first keyboard selector key for selecting a second soft keyboard different from the first soft keyboard; detecting a second gesture on the touch screen display; responding to the second gesture by displaying the second soft keyboard, the second soft keyboard containing a plurality of keys, the plurality of keys in the second soft keyboard including: number keys, a first group of non-letter keys, and a second keyboard selector key for selecting the first soft keyboard; detecting a third gesture on the touch screen display; and responding to the third gesture by displaying a third soft keyboard that is different from the first soft keyboard and the second soft keyboard, wherein: the third soft keyboard is made up of a second group of non-letter keys and symbols and includes at least one non-letter key of the first group of non-letter keys; the first soft keyboard includes a key that, when activated, capitalizes the next letter chosen; the second soft keyboard includes a key that, when activated, initiates display of the third soft keyboard; and when the second soft keyboard is displayed, the key that, when activated, initiates display of the third soft keyboard is displayed at a location on the touch screen display that was previously occupied by the key in the first soft keyboard that, when activated, capitalizes the next letter chosen.
Abstract:
A multifunction device with a touch-sensitive display: displays a text entry region and a soft keyboard with default keys; detects a contact at a first location on the touch-sensitive display that corresponds to an activation region associated with a respective default key; detects an immediate subsequent movement of the contact on the touch-sensitive display; in response to detecting the immediate subsequent movement, displays an array of keys including alternate keys for the respective default key; detects liftoff of the contact at a second location on the touch-sensitive display; and, in response to detecting the liftoff, when the second location corresponds to an activation region associated with a respective alternate key, ceases to display the array and inserts a character associated with the respective alternate key into the text entry region.
Abstract:
Methods and graphical user interfaces for editing on a portable multifunction device with a touch screen display are disclosed. While displaying an application interface of an application, the device detects a multitouch edit initiation gesture on the touch screen display. In response to detection of the multitouch edit initiation gesture, the device displays a plurality of user-selectable edit option icons in an area of the touch screen display that is independent of a location of the multitouch edit initiation gesture. The device also displays a start point object and an end point object to select content displayed by the application in the application interface.

Abstract:
In accordance with some embodiments, a computer- implemented method for use in conjunction with a device (100) with a touch screen display (112) is disclosed. In the method, a movement (3925) of an object on or near the touch screen display (112) is detected. In response to detecting the movement (3925), an electronic document (3912) displayed on the touch screen display (112) is translated in a first direction (3928-2). If an edge of the electronic document (3912) is reached while translating the electronic document (3912) in the first direction (3928-2) while the object is still detected on or near the touch screen display (112), an area (3930) beyond the edge of the document (3912) is displayed. After the object is no longer detected on or near the touch screen display (112), the document (3912) is translated in a second direction (3928-1) until the area (3930) beyond the edge of the document is no longer displayed.
Abstract:
Word recommendations are provided in response to text input. For a particular text input, possible word recommendations are identified based on the characters of the input and corresponding neighbor characters on a keyboard layout. The possible word recommendations are scored based on how closely they match the input word on a character- by-character basis, and a subset of the possible word recommendations are selected for presentation to the user.
Abstract:
In accordance with some embodiments, a computer-implemented method is performed at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display. The method includes: displaying graphics and an insertion marker at a first location in the graphics on the touch screen display; detecting a finger contact with the touch screen display; and in response to the detected finger contact, expanding the insertion marker from a first size to a second size on the touch screen display and expanding a portion of the graphics on the touch screen display from an original size to an expanded size. The method further includes detecting movement of the finger contact on the touch screen display and moving the expanded insertion marker in accordance with the detected movement of the finger contact from the first location to a second location in the graphics.
Abstract:
A method, comprising: at a portable electronic device with a touch screen display: displaying, in a portrait orientation of the touch screen display, a list of video items; while displaying the list of video items in the portrait orientation, detecting user selection of a video item; and in response to detecting the user selection of the video item, initiating display of the corresponding user selected video in a landscape orientation of the touch screen display.
