Abstract
Methods of interpreting navigating user interfaces on multiple devices based on spatial orientations of a user's hand are provided. The method includes receiving, from one or more sensors of a wrist-wearable device, data associated with performance of an in-air hand gesture by a hand of a wearer of the wrist-wearable device. The method further includes in accordance with a determination that the data indicates that the hand of the wearer is in a first orientation when the in-air hand gesture was performed, causing performance of a first operation at the wrist-wearable device. The method further includes in accordance with a determination that the data indicates that the hand of the wearer is in a second orientation when the in-air hand gesture was performed, causing performance of a second operation at a head-wearable device.
