Abstract: An electronic device has a home button that is available in a plurality of different contexts to dismiss user interfaces in response a first type of input. The device detects a first input of the first type directed to a displayed first user interface. In response, the device determines whether user interface tactile outputs are enabled. If so, the device performs a first operation and provides a corresponding first tactile output. If not, the device performs the first operation and forgoes providing at least a portion of the corresponding first tactile output. After performing the first operation, the device detects a second input of the first type on the home button. In response, the device performs a second operation that is associated with the home button and provides tactile output that is associated with activation of the home button, regardless of whether user interface tactile outputs are enabled.

Abstract: An electronic device displays a user interface and detects an occurrence of a first condition that triggers a first user interface event, including display of one or more changes to the user interface, associated with a tactile output. The device is not able to generate the tactile output associated with the first user interface event for a respective amount of time. In response to detecting the occurrence of the first condition, in accordance with a determination that the first user interface event corresponds to a first user interface event category, the device delays generation of the first user interface event for at least the respective amount of time, and, thereafter, displays the one or more changes to the user interface in synchronization with generation of the tactile output associated with the first user interface event.

Abstract: An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, a display, and tactile output generator(s) displays a user interface including an object and predetermined snap positions. The device detects a first portion of an input by a contact on the object to select the object. In response to detecting the object selection, the device visually indicates the selection and generates a first tactile output. While the object is selected, the device detects a movement of the contact as the second portion of the input by the contact. According to the contact movement, the device moves the object. After detecting the second portion and while the object is proximate to a predetermined snap position, the device detects a third portion of the input by the contact to drop off the object. In response, the device visually indicates the deselection, moves the object to the predetermined snap position; and generates a second tactile output.

Abstract: An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, a display, and tactile output generator(s) displays a user interface including a user interface element. The device detects a contact on the user interface element and an input by the contact including a movement of the contact across the touch-sensitive surface. In response to detecting the input by the contact, the device changes a position of an outer edge of the user interface element relative to a threshold position in the user interface in accordance with the movement of the contact. The device further detects that the change in the position of the outer edge of the user interface element has caused the outer edge of the user interface element to move across the threshold position. After detecting the threshold position crossing, the device generates a tactile output and moves the position of the outer edge to the threshold position.

Abstract: An electronic device, while tactile output generators are in a low-power state, receives an indication that a user interaction has started. The device, if the indication meets tactile output generator preparation criteria, sets the tactile output generators to a low-latency state at a first time. Thereafter, the device, if the user interaction has reached a respective portion of the user interaction that is associated with a tactile output before a predefined amount of time since the first time has elapsed and the tactile output generators are still in the low-latency state, generates the tactile output using the tactile output generators with a reduced latency. If a tactile output has not been generated for at least the predefined amount of time since the first time, the device transitions the tactile output generators from the low-latency state to the low-power state.

Abstract: An electronic device displays a user interface including a slider control that represents a continuous range of values between a first value and a second value, the slider control includes a first end that corresponds to the first value and a second end that corresponds to the second value, and the slider control further includes a movable indicator configured to move along the slider control between the first and the second end. The device detects a contact on the slider control followed by a movement of the contact. In response to the movement detection, the device moves the moveable indicator along the slider control and generates a tactile output upon the moveable indicator reaching the first end of the slider control with a tactile output pattern configured based on a movement speed when the moveable indicator reaches the first end.

Abstract: An electronic device with a first off-display input region detects a first portion of an input on the input region. In response to the first portion of the input: when the first portion of the input meets first criteria without a characteristic intensity of the first input increasing above a first intensity threshold, the electronic device provides a first output that indicates a current state of a first attribute of the electronic device without altering the first attribute. The electronic device detects a second portion of the input. In response to the second portion of the input: if the second portion of the first input meets second criteria that require the characteristic intensity of the input increases above the first intensity threshold, the electronic device performs a first operation that alters the first attribute of the electronic device; and otherwise, the electronic device forgoes performing the first operation.

Abstract: A finger-mounted device may include finger-mounted units. The finger-mounted units may each have a body that serves as a support structure for components such as force sensors, accelerometers, and other sensors and for haptic output devices. The body may have sidewall portions coupled by a portion that rests adjacent to a user's fingernail. The body may be formed from deformable material such as metal or may be formed from adjustable structures such as sliding body portions that are coupled to each other using magnetic attraction, springs, or other structures. The body of each finger-mounted unit may have a U-shaped cross-sectional profile that leaves the finger pad of each finger exposed when the body is coupled to a fingertip of a user's finger. Control circuitry may gather finger press input, lateral finger movement input, and finger tap input using the sensors and may provide haptic output using the haptic output device.

Abstract: A computer system displays a user interface with one or more user interface elements and a background element. In response to detecting an input directed to the user interface: if the input is directed to a respective element of the one or more user interface elements and meets first input threshold criteria, the computer system performs an operation associated with the respective element; if the input is directed to the respective element and does not meet the first input threshold criteria, the computer system forgoes performing the operation associated with the respective element; if the input is directed to the background element and meets second input threshold criteria, the computer system changes an appearance of the background element; and, if the input is directed to the background element and does not meet the second input threshold criteria, the computer system forgoes changing the appearance of the background element.
