Abstract:
A computer-implemented method, for use in conjunction with a portable electronic device with a touch screen display, comprises displaying at least a portion of a structured electronic document on the touch screen display, wherein the structured electronic document comprises a plurality of boxes of content, and detecting a first gesture at a location on the displayed portion of the structured electronic document. A first box in the plurality of boxes at the location of the first gesture is determined. The first box on the touch screen display is enlarged and substantially centered.
Abstract:
One or more touch input signals can be obtained from a touch sensitive device. A touch event model can be used to determine touch and/or gesture events based on the touch input signals. The touch and gesture events can be associated with touch input signals generated from different regions of a web page displayed on the touch sensitive device. Access can be provided to at least one touch or gesture event through a programming interface.
Abstract:
A computer- implemented method, for use in conjunction with a portable multifunction device (100) with a touch screen display (112), comprises displaying a portion of page content (4202), including a frame (4204) displaying a portion of frame content (4206) and also including other content of the page (4208), on the touch screen display (112). An N-finger translation gesture (4210) is detected on or near the touch screen display (112). In response, the page content (4202), including the displayed portion of the frame content (4206) and the other content of the page (4208), is translated to display a new portion of page content (4212) on the touch screen display (112). An M-finger translation gesture (4214) is detected on or near the touch screen display (112), where M is a different number than N. In response, the frame content (4206) is translated to display a new portion of frame content (4216) on the touch screen display (112), without translating the other content of the page (4208).
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:
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.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a device displays content on a touch screen display and detects input by finger gestures. In response to the finger gestures, the device selects content, visually distinguishes the selected content, and/or updates the selected content based on detected input. In some embodiments, the device displays a command display area that includes one or more command icons; detects activation of a command icon in the command display area; and, in response to detecting activation of the command icon in the command display area, performs a corresponding action with respect to the selected content. Exemplary actions include cutting, copying, and pasting content.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for a location information server to gather location updates by sending location-update-requests through a push notification service to a mobile device are disclosed. The mobile device provides location updates in response to the push-based location-update-requests received through the push notification service. The mobile device can switch from a self-initiated location update mode to a push-based location update mode depending on the current state of the mobile device. The mobile device can also choose an appropriate positioning system for self-locating based on the information embedded in the location-update-request received through the push notification service.; The information embedded in the pushed location-update-request can be a precision requirement or context information that can be used to determine a precision requirement for the location update.
