In accordance with some embodiments, a method is performed at a device with one or more processors, non-transitory memory, and a touch-sensitive display. The method includes displaying, on the touch-sensitive display, a text region that includes a first portion of text and a second portion of text. The method includes detecting, on the touch-sensitive display, an input within the text region. The method includes, in response to detecting the input within the text region, moving the first portion of text relative to the second portion of text to display a non-text region between the first portion of text and the second portion of text that does not include any text and converting at least a portion of the non-text region into a drawing panel provided to receive drawing input via the touch-sensitive display and display a corresponding graphic in response to receiving the drawing input.

Device, method, and graphical user interface for annotating text

The present disclosure generally relates to a media playback user interface. In some examples, the media playback user interface displays text corresponding to speech of audio content. In some examples, the media playback user interface facilitates management of bookmarks corresponding to the audio content. In some examples, the media playback user interface enables a search for text corresponding to speech of the audio content.

Audio media playback user interface

Some embodiments provide a method for a device having multiple users. The method identifies a process installed on the device that requires an isolated storage in a file system of the device. For each of a set of the users of the electronic device, the method assigns at least one container for use by the process within a user-specific section of the file system. The containers assigned to the process in a section of the file system specific to a particular user are only accessible by the process when the particular user is logged into the device. The method assigns at least one container for use by the process within a non-user-specific section of the file system. The containers assigned to the process within the non-user-specific section of the file system are accessible by the process irrespective of which user is logged into the device.

Multi-user device

An electronic device displays a view of a lower portion of a first column from a document. The document includes at least a first column and a second column. A first user input gesture is received by the electronic device. In response to detecting the first user input gesture, the electronic device displays an animated transition from the view of the lower portion of the first column to a view of an upper portion of the second column.

Column fit document traversal for reader application

Containers shared by multiple users of a device

Methods and devices are provided. A method includes at an electronic device with one or more processors, a display, and memory, displaying, by the display, a playback position indicator for a media file; receiving, by the electronic device, a user input for adjusting a position of the playback position indicator from a first position of the media file to a second position of the media file; and in response to receiving the user input, displaying, by the display, a snippet from a document corresponding to content of the media file at the second position of the media file.

Media playback navigation

The method for manipulating a cursor is performed at a portable multifunction device with one or more processors, memory, and a touch screen display. Initially, content of an electronic document is displayed on the display, where a cursor is displayed within the electronic document. Two substantially simultaneous touch inputs are then detected on the touch screen display, and preferably anywhere on the touch screen display. In response to detecting the two substantially simultaneous touch inputs, a portion of the content in the document closest to the cursor is selected, and the portion of the content is displayed as selected content.
