Abstract: A computing device can be running a current context and displaying a current interface for the current context when a communication is received on the device. The device can display an alert on a portion of a display screen in conjunction with the current interface being displayed. The alert can include information about the communication, which can allow a user to better determine whether or not the communication requires immediate attention. If the user ignores the alert, it will disappear in a specified amount of time. If the user chooses to deal with the communication, he/she can tap on the alert to bring up an overlay interface for replying to the communication without having to switch to another application specifically configured for handling (e.g., viewing, replying to) the communication. After the user replies to the communication using the overlay interface, he/she can be automatically brought back to the current interface.

Abstract: A user interface (UI) enables a user to access a set of options relating to an element of the UI by contacting a region of a touchscreen, or hovering a feature over the region, associated with that element. Upon contacting or hovering for at least a determined period of time, an arranged set of options is displayed and the user can swipe or move the feature in a specified direction to select a specific option. The options can be the same for each instance of a type of item. When a user learns the direction of one of these options, the user does not have to contact or hover long enough to bring up the menu, but can contact or hover long enough to indicate the element of interest and then perform the appropriate motion, which can cause the action to be performed without first displaying the menu.

Abstract translation: 用户界面（UI）使得用户能够通过联系与该元素相关联的触摸屏的区域或悬停该区域上的特征来访问与UI的元素相关的一组选项。 在联系或悬停至少一段确定的时间段后，显示一组排列的选项，用户可以在特定方向上滑动或移动特征，以选择特定的选项。 对于某种类型的每个实例，选项可以相同。 当用户学习这些选项之一的方向时，用户不必联系或悬停足够长的时间来启动菜单，但可以联系或悬停足够长的时间来指示感兴趣的元素，然后执行适当的运动，其中 可以在不首先显示菜单的情况下执行动作。
