Abstract:
In accordance with some embodiments, a method is performed at an electronic device with a display, a touch-sensitive surface, and one or more sensors for detecting intensities of contacts on the touch-sensitive surface. The method comprises displaying a user interface that includes an editable content area that has a plurality of characters, and a content deletion control; detecting a deletion input that includes detecting a contact at a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to the content deletion control on the display; and in response to detecting the deletion input, deleting content in the editable content area based on a duration and a characteristic intensity of the contact. The method includes in accordance with a determination that the contact was maintained for a first time period without the characteristic intensity of the contact increasing above a first intensity threshold, deleting the content in the editable content area by sequentially deleting a plurality of sub-units of the content of a first type of sub-unit of the content at a rate that does not vary based on the characteristic intensity of the contact; in accordance with a determination that the contact was maintained for a second time period that is longer than the first time period without the characteristic intensity of the contact increasing above the first intensity threshold, switching to deleting the content in the editable content area by sequentially deleting a plurality of sub-units of the content of a second type of sub-unit of the content at a rate that does not vary based on the characteristic intensity of the contact, wherein the second type of sub-unit is different from the first type of sub-unit; and in accordance with a determination that the characteristic intensity of the contact increased above the first intensity threshold, deleting the content in the editable content area by sequentially deleting a plurality of sub-units of the content at a rate that varies based on the characteristic intensity of the contact.
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:
An electronic device displays a first user interface that includes a plurality of application icons that correspond to different applications of a plurality of applications installed on the device. The device detects a first input at a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a first application icon of the plurality of application icons, the first application icon corresponding to a first application of the plurality of applications. In response to detecting the first input, the device displays a first mini application object or a preview of the first mini application object in an overlay region, where the first mini application object corresponds to a first application of the plurality of applications; and the overlay region includes an affordance for adding the first mini application object to a second user interface that displays a plurality of mini application objects. The device detects a second input at a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to the affordance for adding the first mini application object to the second user interface. In response to detecting the second input, the device adds the first mini application object to the second user interface that displays the plurality of mini application objects.
Abstract:
An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, a display, and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts: displays a plurality of user interface objects in a first user interface; detects a contact while a focus selector is at a location of a first user interface object; and, while the focus selector is at the location of the first user interface object: detects an increase in a characteristic intensity of the contact to a first intensity threshold; in response, visually obscures the plurality of user interface objects, other than the first user interface object, while maintaining display of the first user interface object; detects that the characteristic intensity of the contact continues to increase above the first intensity threshold; and, in response, dynamically increases the amount of visual obscuring of the plurality of user interface objects, other than the first user interface object.
