Abstract
Some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for displaying content such as a user interface element of an application executing on the electronic device upon detecting a context (e.g., detecting a physical object and optionally the satisfaction of one or more criteria) for displaying the user interface element in a three-dimensional environment presented at an electronic device. Examples of the disclosure are directed to improving the user experience by automatically displaying a user interface element when certain conditions are satisfied, such as when the context of the three-dimensional environment is appropriate (e.g., the context for displaying the user interface element is detected).
