Abstract
In some embodiments, an electronic device changes the immersion level of a virtual environment and/or spatial effect in a three-dimensional environment based on the geometry of the physical environment around the device. In some embodiments, an electronic device modifies the virtual environment and/or spatial effect in response to detecting a movement of the device. In some embodiments, an electronic device moves a user interface of an application into and/or out of a virtual environment. In some embodiments, an electronic device selectively changes the display of a simulated environment and/or atmospheric effect in a three-dimensional environment based on movement of an object associated with a viewpoint of a user. In some embodiments, an electronic device provides feedback to a user in response to a user moving a virtual object to and/or into a simulated environment.
