Abstract
An electronic device: displays an interactive UI object that conditionally exhibits respective interactive behavior responsive to changes in detected contact intensity, and content that does not exhibit the respective interactive behavior. The device detects a first input over the interactive UI object. In accordance with a determination that the first input meets first appearance-manipulation criteria (e.g., an intensity of the contact exceeds a first intensity threshold), the device changes an appearance of the interactive UI object based on the intensity of the contact and independent of lateral movement of the contact. In accordance with a determination that the first input meets second appearance-manipulation criteria (e.g., the intensity of the contact exceeds a second intensity threshold, greater than the first intensity threshold), the device changes the appearance of the interactive UI object based on lateral movement of the contact detected after the intensity of the contact exceeds the second intensity threshold.
