Electronic devices are often equipped with a camera for capturing video content and/or a display for displaying video content. However, amateur users often capture video content without regard to composition, framing, or camera movement, resulting in video content that can be jarring or confusing to viewers. There is a need to automate the processing and presentation of video content in an aesthetically pleasing manner. The embodiments described herein provide a method of automatically cropping video content for presentation on a display.

Automatic cropping of video content

An electronic device with a display and touch-sensitive surface displays a plurality of user interface objects. The device enables multiple objects to be selected by a user, in succession, with a single gesture that remains in contact with the touch-sensitive surface, moving from object to object of the plurality of user interface objects, with separate press inputs for selecting each additional object while maintaining selection of objects previously selected using the same gesture.

Device, method, and graphical user interface for selecting user interface objects

In some embodiments, an electronic device optionally identifies a person's face, and optionally performs an action in accordance with the identification. In some embodiments, an electronic device optionally determines a gaze location in a user interface, and optionally performs an action in accordance with the determination. In some embodiments, an electronic device optionally designates a user as being present at a sound-playback device in accordance with a determination that sound-detection criteria and verification criteria have been satisfied. In some embodiments, an electronic device optionally determines whether a person is further or closer than a threshold distance from a display device, and optionally provides a first or second user interface for display on the display device in accordance with the determination. In some embodiments, an electronic device optionally modifies the playing of media content in accordance with a determination that one or more presence criteria are not satisfied.

User detection by a computing device

Some embodiments provide a commute application that provides a first presentation of several stops along a route. The commute application also receives a selection of a stop from the several stops along the route. The commute application further provides a second presentation for displaying several different routes that traverse through the selected stop.

Location-based features for commute assistant

An electronic device, with a touch-sensitive surface, displays a respective control, which is associated with respective contact intensity criteria, used to determine whether or not a function associated with the respective control will be performed. The device detects a gesture on the touch-sensitive surface, corresponding to an interaction with the respective control. In accordance with a determination that the gesture does not include a contact that meets the respective contact intensity criteria, the device changes the appearance of the respective control to indicate progress toward meeting the respective contact intensity criteria that is used to determine whether or not a function associated with the respective control will be performed. In response to detecting activation of the control, the device performs the function associated with the respective control in accordance with the detected gesture including a contact that meets the respective contact intensity criteria.

Device, method, and graphical user interface for moving a user interface object based on an intensity of a press input

An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, a display, and one or more tactile output generators displays, on the display, a respective user interface element within a user interface region. The device detects a gesture on the touch-sensitive surface for moving the respective user interface element by a respective amount. In response, in accordance with a determination that moving the respective user interface element by the respective amount would cause the respective user interface element to move beyond a predefined limit, the device generates a respective tactile output via the tactile output generators and moves the respective user interface element by the respective amount and beyond the predefined limit. In response to detecting liftoff of a contact used to perform the gesture, the device at least partially reverses the movement of the respective user interface element, such that the respective user interface element is moved to the predefined limit.

Device, method, and graphical user interface for providing tactile feedback for operations performed in a user interface

A computing device having a touch-sensitive surface and a display, detects a stylus input on the touch-sensitive surface while displaying a user interface. A first operation is performed in the user interface in accordance with a determination that the stylus input includes movement of the stylus across the touch-sensitive surface while the stylus is detected on the touch-sensitive surface. A second operation different from the first operation is performed in the user interface in accordance with a determination that the stylus input includes rotation of the stylus around an axis of the stylus while the stylus is detected on the touch-sensitive surface. A third operation is performed in the user interface in accordance with a determination that the stylus input includes movement of the stylus across the touch-sensitive surface and rotation of the stylus around an axis of the stylus while the stylus is detected on the touch-sensitive surface.

Dynamic user interface adaptable to multiple input tools

In an exemplary method performed at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display. The method includes concurrently displaying a first application and a second application on the touch-sensitive display. The method also includes detecting a first contact at a border between the concurrently displayed first and second applications. Immediately following detecting the first contact: detecting a gesture from a location of the first contact towards an edge of the touch-sensitive display. Upon detecting the gesture: selecting a fixed display area from a plurality of predefined fixed display areas for the second application; automatically resizing the second application to the selected fixed display area; and automatically resizing the first application to occupy substantially all of a remaining area of the touch-sensitive display.

Systems and methods for resizing applications in a multitasking view on an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display

An electronic device displays a user interface that includes a plurality of controls for adjusting parameters of a user interface element, including a first control and a second control for adjusting a first parameter and a second parameter of the user interface element, respectively. In response to receiving a single input directed to the first control, the device updates an appearance of the first control to indicate that the first control is navigating through a plurality of values of the first parameter, generates a plurality of tactile outputs corresponding to updates in the appearance of the first control; and changes a value of the first parameter for the user interface element based on the single input. In response to receiving a single input directed to the first control, a similar set of operations are performed with respect to the second parameter of the user interface element.
