20160048705 | AUTHENTICATED DEVICE USED TO UNLOCK ANOTHER DEVICE - An electronic device having a user-interface locked state and a user-interface unlocked state may be in the locked state. The locked electronic device may detect, via wireless communication, an external device; receive, from the external device, unlocking information for unlocking the electronic device. The locked electronic device may determine whether the external device is authorized to facilitate its unlocking. The locked electronic device may detect user input. In response to the user input, the received unlocking information, and/or a determination that the external device is authorized, the locked electronic device may unlock and enter a normal operating state wherein application programs may be launched and used. | 02-18-2016 |
20160062487 | BUTTON FUNCTIONALITY - Button functionalities for user interfaces, e.g., for use with a portable multifunction device, are disclosed. Exemplary button functionalities are described for an electronic device with a display, a rotatable and depressible input mechanism, and/or a button. Different device features may be accessed, depending on whether the rotatable and depressible input mechanism or the button is activated, and further depending on whether the activation represents a single press, a double press, or an extended press on the rotatable and depressible input mechanism or the button. | 03-03-2016 |
20160062540 | REDUCED-SIZE INTERFACES FOR MANAGING ALERTS - An electronic device with a display can receive an alert comprising information, and in response to receiving the alert, issue a perceptual output. The device can detect a user input and determine whether the user input was detected within a predetermined time interval after the perceptual output. In accordance with a determination that the user input was detected within the predetermined time interval, the device can display a notification on the display, wherein the notification comprises a first portion of the information. If the device continues to detect the user input after a second predetermined time period, the device can display a second portion of the information, where the second portion is different from the first portion. | 03-03-2016 |
20160062541 | ELECTRONIC TOUCH COMMUNICATION - Touch inputs such as single-finger contacts and multiple-finger contacts are detected at an electronic device and translated into electronic touch communications for playback at an external electronic device. | 03-03-2016 |
20160062570 | REDUCED-SIZE NOTIFICATION INTERFACE - An electronic device with a touch-sensitive display can obtain a plurality of alerts associated with dates and times. The device can detect a user input, and in response to the input display a notification interface. The notification interface can include a future notification representing a future alert with a date and time after the current date and time, and a past notification representing a past alert with a date and time before the current date and time. The future and past notifications can be separated by a graphical separator that has an indication of the current time. The future and past alerts correspond to different installed applications. | 03-03-2016 |
20160062571 | REDUCED SIZE USER INTERFACE - A method includes: at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display and a rotatable input mechanism: receiving data representing a collection of photos stored on an external device; displaying a first view of an image, the image comprising a first representation including a visual representation of a first photo in the collection of photos and a second representation including a visual representation of a second photo in the collection of photos. The first representation and the second representation may be arranged in fixed positions with respect to each other, and, in the first view, may be displayed at a first size. A first movement of the rotatable input mechanism may be detected and, in response, a second view of the image may be displayed in which the first representation and the second representation are displayed at a second size different than the first size. | 03-03-2016 |
20160062573 | REDUCED SIZE USER INTERFACE - A method includes, at an electronic device: receiving data representing a sequence of images stored on an external device; displaying, on a touch-sensitive display, a representation of the sequence of images; determining whether a contact detected on the touch-sensitive display at the representation of the sequence of images has a characteristic intensity above a threshold intensity; in response to a determination that the characteristic intensity is above the threshold intensity, displaying a user interface menu including a user interface object representing an option to display a background of a user interface based on the sequence of images; detecting a selection of the user interface object; detecting a motion indicative of a wrist raise gesture; and in response to detecting the motion indicative of a wrist raise gesture, displaying the background of the user interface on the display of the electronic device based on the sequence of images. | 03-03-2016 |

The user interface screen can include an affordance for launching the application, and a set of information obtained from the application, where the set of information is updated in accordance with data from the application. | 03-03-2016 |
20160062590 | USER INTERFACE FOR LIMITING NOTIFICATIONS AND ALERTS - The present disclosure relates to systems and processes for limiting notifications on an electronic device. In one example process, data representing a user input can be received by an electronic device. The data representing the user input can include touch data from the touch-sensitive device, ambient light data from an ambient light sensor, intensity data from a contact intensity sensor, and/or motion data from one or more motion sensors. Based on the data, it can be determined whether the user input is a cover gesture over a touch-sensitive display of the electronic device. In response to determining that the user input is a cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display, the electronic device can be put into a DND mode for a predetermined amount of time. While in the DND mode, the electronic device can cease to output some or all notifications. | 03-03-2016 |
