    Abstract: One aspect of the invention involves a method that includes: in a first area of the touch screen, displaying a current character string being input by a user with the keyboard; in a second area of the touch screen, displaying the current character string or a portion thereof and a suggested replacement for the current character string; replacing the current character string in the first area with the suggested replacement if the user activates a delimiter key on the keyboard; replacing the current character string in the first area with the suggested replacement if the user performs a first gesture on the suggested replacement displayed in the second area; and keeping the current character string in the first area if the user performs a second gesture on the current character string or the portion thereof displayed in the second area.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to user interfaces for receiving user input. Some techniques for receiving user input using electronic devices, however, are generally cumbersome and inefficient. For example, composing or preparing a response to a message requires navigating a complex and time-consuming user interface, which may include multiple key presses or keystrokes. Existing techniques require longer than necessary, wasting user time and device energy. This latter consideration is particularly important in battery-operated devices. Accordingly, there is a need for electronic devices with faster, more efficient methods and interfaces for receiving user input. Such methods and interfaces optionally complement or replace conventional methods for receiving user input. Such methods and interfaces reduce the cognitive burden on a user and produce a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, such methods and interfaces conserve power and increase the time between battery charges. The above deficiencies and other problems associated with user interfaces for computing devices for receiving user input are reduced or eliminated by the disclosed devices.

    Abstract: This is directed to animating transitions in a user interface as the orientation of the user interface changes. An electronic device can display a user interface in any suitable orientation, including for example in portrait and landscape modes (e.g., based on the orientation of the display). To provide a resource efficient and aesthetically pleasing transition, the electronic device can pre-render the interface in the final orientation, and define an animation by cross- fading the interface between the initial and final interfaces. In some embodiments, the electronic device can identify distinct regions of the interface, and define separate animations for each region. The separate animations can be overlaid and displayed simultaneously to provide a uniform animated transition between the initial and final interfaces.
