Tactile Feedback for Locked Device User Interfaces

Abstract

An electronic device displays a camera user interface for capturing media. While displaying the camera user interface, the device detects activation of a capture affordance. If the activation of the capture affordance is detected while the camera user interface is in a first media capture mode (e.g., still picture capture mode), the device captures media of a first type, and generates a first tactile output. If the activation of the capture affordance is detected while the camera user interface is in a second media capture mode (e.g., a video capture mode or a live picture capture mode), capturing media of the second type, and forgoing generating the first tactile output in response to activation of the capture affordance.
