Abstract: Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant within a computer-generated reality (CGR) environment are provided. For example, a user input invoking a digital assistant session is received, and in response, a digital assistant session is initiated. Initiating the digital assistant session includes positioning a digital assistant object at a first location within the CGR environment but outside of the currently-displayed portion of the CGR environment at a first time, and providing a first output indicating the location of the digital assistant object.

Abstract: An example process includes: receiving a first input corresponding to a request to initiate a digital assistant; and in response to receiving the first input, initiating a first instance of a digital assistant session, including: in accordance with a determination that a set of display criteria is satisfied, displaying a digital assistant indicator at a first location in an extended reality (XR) environment; and in accordance with a determination that the set of display criteria is not satisfied, displaying the digital assistant indicator at a second location in the XR environment, wherein the second location is different from the first location.

Abstract: An example process includes: while displaying a portion of an extended reality (XR) environment representing a current field of view of a user: detecting a user gaze at a first object displayed in the XR environment, where the first object is persistent in the current field of view of the XR environment; in response to detecting the user gaze at the first object, expanding the first object into a list of objects including a second object representing a digital assistant; detecting a user gaze at the second object; in accordance with detecting the user gaze at the second object, displaying a first animation of the second object indicating that a digital assistant session is initiated; receiving a first audio input from the user; and displaying a second animation of the second object indicating that the digital assistant is actively listening to the user.
