Abstract

The present disclosure relates to user interfaces for receiving user input. In some examples, a device determines which user input technique a user has accessed most recently, and displays the corresponding user interface. In some examples, a device scrolls through a set of information on the display. When a threshold criteria is satisfied, the device displays an index object fully or partially overlaying the set of information. In some examples, a device displays an emoji graphical object, which is visually manipulated based on user input. The emoji graphical object is transmitted to a recipient. In some examples, a device displays paging affordances that enlarge and allow a user to select a particular page of a user interface. In some examples, the device displays user interfaces for various input methods, including multiple emoji graphical objects. In some examples, a keyboard is displays for receiving user input.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An electronic device, comprising:
 a touch-sensitive display;   one or more processors;   a memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, a keyboard interface and a dictation affordance; 
 while displaying the keyboard interface and the dictation affordance, detecting, via the touch-sensitive display, a first user input; 
 in response to detecting the first user input:
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to a first key of a keyboard, displaying, in the keyboard interface, a character corresponding to the first key; and 
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to the dictation affordance, displaying a dictation user interface for converting speech into text. 
 
   
     
     
         2 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, an emoji affordance with the dictation user interface;   while displaying the dictation user interface and the emoji affordance, detecting, via the touch-sensitive display, a second user input corresponding to the emoji affordance; and   in response to detecting the second user input, displaying an emoji user interface for adding an emoji to a message.   
     
     
         3 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, a suggested-content user interface including a first suggested-content affordance, a second suggested-content affordance, and a keyboard affordance;   while displaying the suggested-content user interface, detecting, via the touch-sensitive display, a third user input; and   in response to detecting the third user input:
 in accordance with a determination that the third user input corresponds to the first suggested-content affordance, adding first content to a message, wherein the first content corresponds to the first suggested-content affordance; and 
 in accordance with a determination that the third user input corresponds to the second suggested-content affordance, adding second content to a message, wherein:
 the second content corresponds to the second suggested-content affordance, 
 the second content is different from the first content, and 
 displaying the keyboard interface and the dictation affordance occurs in response to detecting the third user input and in accordance with a determination that the third user input corresponds to the keyboard affordance. 
 
   
     
     
         4 . The electronic device of  claim 3 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, a first affordance with the keyboard interface and the dictation affordance; and   in response to detecting the first user input:
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to the first affordance, displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, the suggested-content user interface. 
   
     
     
         5 . The electronic device of  claim 3 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, an add-contact affordance and a create-message affordance;   while displaying the add-contact affordance and the create-message affordance, detecting, via the touch-sensitive display, a fourth user input;   in response to detecting the fourth user input:
 in accordance with a determination that the fourth user input corresponds to the add-content affordance, displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, a second user interface to add a contact to a message; and 
 in accordance with a determination that the fourth user input corresponds to the create-message affordance, displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, the suggested-content user interface. 
   
     
     
         6 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, a second affordance with the keyboard interface and the dictation affordance; and   in response to detecting the first user input:
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to the second affordance, replacing display of a row of characters of the keyboard interface with a second row of characters, wherein the second row of characters is different from the row of characters. 
   
     
     
         7 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
 while displaying the dictation user interface, receiving speech input; and   in response to receiving the speech input, transcribing the speech input.   
     
     
         8 . The electronic device of  claim 1 , wherein the dictation user interface includes a waveform. 
     
     
         9 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display, the one or more programs including instructions for:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, a keyboard interface and a dictation affordance;   while displaying the keyboard interface and the dictation affordance, detecting, via the touch-sensitive display, a first user input;   in response to detecting the first user input:
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to a first key of a keyboard, displaying, in the keyboard interface, a character corresponding to the first key; and 
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to the dictation affordance, displaying a dictation user interface for converting speech into text. 
   
     
     
         10 . A method, comprising:
 at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display:
 displaying, via the touch-sensitive display, a keyboard interface and a dictation affordance; 
 while displaying the keyboard interface and the dictation affordance, detecting, via the touch-sensitive display, a first user input; 
 in response to detecting the first user input:
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to a first key of a keyboard, displaying, in the keyboard interface, a character corresponding to the first key; and 
 in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to the dictation affordance, displaying a dictation user interface for converting speech into text.
