Abstract: While outputting audio content, a wearable audio output device detects a gesture performed by a hand of a user of the wearable audio output device. In response to detecting the gesture, the wearable audio output device performs a first operation corresponding to the gesture in accordance with a determination that the gesture is detected within a respective distance of a side of the user's head and is a first type of hand gesture determined based at least in part on a shape of the hand during performance of the gesture. In response to detecting the gesture, the wearable audio output device forgoes performing the first operation in accordance with a determination that the gesture is not the first type of hand gesture determined based at least in part on a shape of the hand during performance of the gesture.

Abstract: A first electronic device is wireless connected to an audio output device that is also concurrently wirelessly connected with a second electronic device that is different from the first electronic device and playing first audio corresponding to first audio data transmitted by the second electronic device to the audio output device. The first electronic device, in response to detecting a user request to play a second audio that is associated with a media item, transmits to the audio output device second audio data corresponding to the second audio. In accordance with the second audio data being transmitted to the audio output device, the audio output device ceases playing the first audio and begins playing the second audio.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device in communication with a display and a touch-sensitive surface displays a user interface, and while displaying the user interface, the electronic device receives touch input comprising a contact detected on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the touch input, and in accordance with a determination that the touch input satisfies first criteria, wherein the first criteria include a requirement that the contact continues to be detected in a predefined region of the touch-sensitive surface for longer than a time threshold, the electronic device displays a first indication that further input of a first type detected at the touch sensitive surface will cause the device to display a first system user interface. In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the touch input does not satisfy the first criteria, the electronic device forgoes displaying the first indication.

Abstract: A computer system causes output of audio information from a first application to a set of one or more audio output devices in accordance with a first audio output mode previously selected for the first application using a system audio output setting control. After, the computer system receives a request to play audio from a second application different from the first application. In response, the computer system causes output of audio information from the second application to the set of one or more audio output devices, including, in accordance with a determination that a second audio output mode, different from the first audio output mode, was previously selected for the second application using the system audio output setting control, causing output of the audio information from the second application via the set of one or more audio output devices in accordance with the second audio output mode.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for facilitating operations. In some examples, computer systems provide indications that educate and/or guide users for performing an operation. In some examples, computer systems perform a first operation based on a first type of user input corresponding to a first hardware input device and perform a second operation based on a second type of user input corresponding to the first hardware input devices. In some examples, computer systems adjust audio output of an emergency siren based on detecting a particular type of event. In some examples, computer systems display different types and/or sizes of notifications based on an operating mode of a respective computer system. In some examples, computer systems forgo performing one or more operations when a respective computer system operates in a low power mode.
