The method includes, when determining the data indicates that the wrist-wearable device had a first orientation when the in-air hand gesture was performed during the first period of time, causing performance of a first operation. The method includes receiving, from sensors of the wrist-wearable device, new data associated with performance of the in-air hand gesture during a second period of time, the second period of time being after the first period of time. The method includes, when determining that the new data indicates that the wrist-wearable device had a second orientation when the in-air hand gesture was performed during the second period of time, causing performance of a second operation.
