Abstract

While displaying a first user interface that corresponds to a restricted state of a computer system, the computer system, in response to detecting a first input, replaces the first user interface with a second user interface while maintaining a current authentication state of the computer system. The second user interface includes a first search input region. In response to detecting an input in the first search input region in the second user interface: if the computer system is in an unauthenticated state, the computer system displays, on the second user interface, a first set of search results; and if the computer system is in an authenticated state, the computer system displays, on the second user interface, a second set of search results including at least a representation of first content within the first application is not in the first set of search results.
