Description
FIELD

The present disclosure relates generally to computer user interfaces, and more specifically to techniques for sharing and/or accessing workout content.


BACKGROUND

Electronic devices can be used to access and share workout content, such as fitness guidance, including multimedia fitness guidance.


BRIEF SUMMARY

Some techniques for sharing and/or accessing workout content using electronic devices, however, are generally cumbersome and inefficient. For example, some existing techniques use a complex and time-consuming user interface, which may include multiple key presses or keystrokes. Existing techniques require more time than necessary, wasting user time and device energy. This latter consideration is particularly important in battery-operated devices.


Accordingly, the present technique provides electronic devices with faster, more efficient methods and interfaces for sharing and/or accessing workout content. Such methods and interfaces optionally complement or replace other methods for sharing and/or accessing workout content. Such methods and interfaces reduce the cognitive burden on a user and produce a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, such methods and interfaces conserve power and increase the time between battery charges.


In accordance with some embodiments, a method that is performed at a computer system that is in communication with one or more display generation components and one or more input devices, is described. The method comprising: displaying, via the one or more display generation components, a messaging user interface corresponding to an asynchronous messaging session between a user of the computer system and one or more other participants in the asynchronous messaging session including a first participant; receiving first information that corresponds to a first workout that is shared into the asynchronous messaging session by the first participant; in response to receiving the first information, displaying, via the one or more display generation components and within the messaging user interface, a first object corresponding to the first workout that is shared into the asynchronous messaging session by the first participant; while displaying the first object corresponding to the first workout, receiving, via the one or more input devices, a first input corresponding to selection of the first object; and in response to receiving the first input: displaying a first user interface corresponding to the first workout.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

The following description sets forth exemplary methods, parameters, and the like. It should be recognized, however, that such description is not intended as a limitation on the scope of the present disclosure but is instead provided as a description of exemplary embodiments.


There is a need for electronic devices that provide efficient methods and interfaces for sharing and/or accessing workout content. Such techniques can reduce the cognitive burden on a user who share and/or access workout content, thereby enhancing productivity. Further, such techniques can reduce processor and battery power otherwise wasted on redundant user inputs.


Below, FIGS. 1A-1B, 2, 3, 4A-4B, and 5A-5B provide a description of exemplary devices for performing the techniques for managing event notifications. FIGS. 6A-6AF illustrate exemplary user interfaces for sharing and accessing workout content, in accordance with some embodiments. FIG. 7A illustrates a flow diagram depicting a method for accessing workout content, in accordance with some embodiments. FIG. 7B illustrates a flow diagram depicting a method for sharing workout content, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in FIGS. 6A-6AF are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIGS. 7A and 7B. FIGS. 8A-8K illustrate exemplary user interfaces for accessing workout content. FIG. 9 illustrates a flow diagram depicting a method for accessing workout content, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in FIGS. 8A-8K are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIG. 9.


The processes described below enhance the operability of the devices and make the user-device interfaces more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing user mistakes when operating/interacting with the device) through various techniques, including by providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs needed to perform an operation, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, performing an operation when a set of conditions has been met without requiring further user input, and/or additional techniques. These techniques also reduce power usage and improve battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the device more quickly and efficiently.


In addition, in methods described herein where one or more steps are contingent upon one or more conditions having been met, it should be understood that the described method can be repeated in multiple repetitions so that over the course of the repetitions all of the conditions upon which steps in the method are contingent have been met in different repetitions of the method. For example, if a method requires performing a first step if a condition is satisfied, and a second step if the condition is not satisfied, then a person of ordinary skill would appreciate that the claimed steps are repeated until the condition has been both satisfied and not satisfied, in no particular order. Thus, a method described with one or more steps that are contingent upon one or more conditions having been met could be rewritten as a method that is repeated until each of the conditions described in the method has been met. This, however, is not required of system or computer readable medium claims where the system or computer readable medium contains instructions for performing the contingent operations based on the satisfaction of the corresponding one or more conditions and thus is capable of determining whether the contingency has or has not been satisfied without explicitly repeating steps of a method until all of the conditions upon which steps in the method are contingent have been met. A person having ordinary skill in the art would also understand that, similar to a method with contingent steps, a system or computer readable storage medium can repeat the steps of a method as many times as are needed to ensure that all of the contingent steps have been performed.


Although the following description uses terms “first,” “second,” etc. to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by the terms. In some embodiments, these terms are used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first touch could be termed a second touch, and, similarly, a second touch could be termed a first touch, without departing from the scope of the various described embodiments. In some embodiments, the first touch and the second touch are two separate references to the same touch. In some embodiments, the first touch and the second touch are both touches, but they are not the same touch.


The terminology used in the description of the various described embodiments herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used in the description of the various described embodiments and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the term “and/or” as used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms “includes,” “including,” “comprises,” and/or “comprising,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.


The term “if” is, optionally, construed to mean “when” or “upon” or “in response to determining” or “in response to detecting,” depending on the context. Similarly, the phrase “if it is determined” or “if [a stated condition or event] is detected” is, optionally, construed to mean “upon determining” or “in response to determining” or “upon detecting [the stated condition or event]” or “in response to detecting [the stated condition or event],” depending on the context.


Embodiments of electronic devices, user interfaces for such devices, and associated processes for using such devices are described. In some embodiments, the device is a portable communications device, such as a mobile telephone, that also contains other functions, such as PDA and/or music player functions. Exemplary embodiments of portable multifunction devices include, without limitation, the iPhone®, iPod Touch®, and iPad® devices from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California. Other portable electronic devices, such as laptops or tablet computers with touch-sensitive surfaces (e.g., touch screen displays and/or touchpads), are, optionally, used. It should also be understood that, in some embodiments, the device is not a portable communications device, but is a desktop computer with a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch screen display and/or a touchpad). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system that is in communication (e.g., via wireless communication, via wired communication) with a display generation component. The display generation component is configured to provide visual output, such as display via a CRT display, display via an LED display, or display via image projection. In some embodiments, the display generation component is integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the display generation component is separate from the computer system. As used herein, “displaying” content includes causing to display the content (e.g., video data rendered or decoded by display controller 156) by transmitting, via a wired or wireless connection, data (e.g., image data or video data) to an integrated or external display generation component to visually produce the content.


In the discussion that follows, an electronic device that includes a display and a touch-sensitive surface is described. It should be understood, however, that the electronic device optionally includes one or more other physical user-interface devices, such as a physical keyboard, a mouse, and/or a joystick.


The device typically supports a variety of applications, such as one or more of the following: a drawing application, a presentation application, a word processing application, a website creation application, a disk authoring application, a spreadsheet application, a gaming application, a telephone application, a video conferencing application, an e-mail application, an instant messaging application, a workout support application, a photo management application, a digital camera application, a digital video camera application, a web browsing application, a digital music player application, and/or a digital video player application.


The various applications that are executed on the device optionally use at least one common physical user-interface device, such as the touch-sensitive surface. One or more functions of the touch-sensitive surface as well as corresponding information displayed on the device are, optionally, adjusted and/or varied from one application to the next and/or within a respective application. In this way, a common physical architecture (such as the touch-sensitive surface) of the device optionally supports the variety of applications with user interfaces that are intuitive and transparent to the user.


Attention is now directed toward embodiments of portable devices with touch-sensitive displays. FIG. 1A is a block diagram illustrating portable multifunction device 100 with touch-sensitive display system 112 in accordance with some embodiments. Touch-sensitive display 112 is sometimes called a “touch screen” for convenience and is sometimes known as or called a “touch-sensitive display system.” Device 100 includes memory 102 (which optionally includes one or more computer-readable storage mediums), memory controller 122, one or more processing units (CPUs) 120, peripherals interface 118, RF circuitry 108, audio circuitry 110, speaker 111, microphone 113, input/output (I/O) subsystem 106, other input control devices 116, and external port 124. Device 100 optionally includes one or more optical sensors 164. Device 100 optionally includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 for detecting intensity of contacts on device 100 (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface such as touch-sensitive display system 112 of device 100). Device 100 optionally includes one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile outputs on device 100 (e.g., generating tactile outputs on a touch-sensitive surface such as touch-sensitive display system 112 of device 100 or touchpad 355 of device 300). These components optionally communicate over one or more communication buses or signal lines 103.


As used in the specification and claims, the term “intensity” of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface refers to the force or pressure (force per unit area) of a contact (e.g., a finger contact) on the touch-sensitive surface, or to a substitute (proxy) for the force or pressure of a contact on the touch-sensitive surface. The intensity of a contact has a range of values that includes at least four distinct values and more typically includes hundreds of distinct values (e.g., at least 256). Intensity of a contact is, optionally, determined (or measured) using various approaches and various sensors or combinations of sensors. For example, one or more force sensors underneath or adjacent to the touch-sensitive surface are, optionally, used to measure force at various points on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, force measurements from multiple force sensors are combined (e.g., a weighted average) to determine an estimated force of a contact. Similarly, a pressure-sensitive tip of a stylus is, optionally, used to determine a pressure of the stylus on the touch-sensitive surface. Alternatively, the size of the contact area detected on the touch-sensitive surface and/or changes thereto, the capacitance of the touch-sensitive surface proximate to the contact and/or changes thereto, and/or the resistance of the touch-sensitive surface proximate to the contact and/or changes thereto are, optionally, used as a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, the substitute measurements for contact force or pressure are used directly to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is described in units corresponding to the substitute measurements). In some implementations, the substitute measurements for contact force or pressure are converted to an estimated force or pressure, and the estimated force or pressure is used to determine whether an intensity threshold has been exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is a pressure threshold measured in units of pressure). Using the intensity of a contact as an attribute of a user input allows for user access to additional device functionality that may otherwise not be accessible by the user on a reduced-size device with limited real estate for displaying affordances (e.g., on a touch-sensitive display) and/or receiving user input (e.g., via a touch-sensitive display, a touch-sensitive surface, or a physical/mechanical control such as a knob or a button).


As used in the specification and claims, the term “tactile output” refers to physical displacement of a device relative to a previous position of the device, physical displacement of a component (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface) of a device relative to another component (e.g., housing) of the device, or displacement of the component relative to a center of mass of the device that will be detected by a user with the user's sense of touch. For example, in situations where the device or the component of the device is in contact with a surface of a user that is sensitive to touch (e.g., a finger, palm, or other part of a user's hand), the tactile output generated by the physical displacement will be interpreted by the user as a tactile sensation corresponding to a perceived change in physical characteristics of the device or the component of the device. For example, movement of a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display or trackpad) is, optionally, interpreted by the user as a “down click” or “up click” of a physical actuator button. In some cases, a user will feel a tactile sensation such as an “down click” or “up click” even when there is no movement of a physical actuator button associated with the touch-sensitive surface that is physically pressed (e.g., displaced) by the user's movements. As another example, movement of the touch-sensitive surface is, optionally, interpreted or sensed by the user as “roughness” of the touch-sensitive surface, even when there is no change in smoothness of the touch-sensitive surface. While such interpretations of touch by a user will be subject to the individualized sensory perceptions of the user, there are many sensory perceptions of touch that are common to a large majority of users. Thus, when a tactile output is described as corresponding to a particular sensory perception of a user (e.g., an “up click,” a “down click,” “roughness”), unless otherwise stated, the generated tactile output corresponds to physical displacement of the device or a component thereof that will generate the described sensory perception for a typical (or average) user.

In some embodiments, the one or more input devices include a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a trackpad, as part of a touch-sensitive display). In some embodiments, the one or more input devices include one or more camera sensors (e.g., one or more optical sensors 164 and/or one or more depth camera sensors 175), such as for tracking a user's gestures (e.g., hand gestures and/or air gestures) as input. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are separate from the computer system. In some embodiments, an air gesture is a gesture that is detected without the user touching an input element that is part of the device (or independently of an input element that is a part of the device) and is based on detected motion of a portion of the user's body through the air including motion of the user's body relative to an absolute reference (e.g., an angle of the user's arm relative to the ground or a distance of the user's hand relative to the ground), relative to another portion of the user's body (e.g., movement of a hand of the user relative to a shoulder of the user, movement of one hand of the user relative to another hand of the user, and/or movement of a finger of the user relative to another finger or portion of a hand of the user), and/or absolute motion of a portion of the user's body (e.g., a tap gesture that includes movement of a hand in a predetermined pose by a predetermined amount and/or speed, or a shake gesture that includes a predetermined speed or amount of rotation of a portion of the user's body).


A quick press of the push button optionally disengages a lock of touch screen 112 or optionally begins a process that uses gestures on the touch screen to unlock the device, as described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/322,549, “Unlocking a Device by Performing Gestures on an Unlock Image,” filed Dec. 23, 2005, U.S. Pat. No. 7,657,849, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. A longer press of the push button (e.g., 206) optionally turns power to device 100 on or off. The functionality of one or more of the buttons are, optionally, user-customizable. Touch screen 112 is used to implement virtual or soft buttons and one or more soft keyboards.


Touch-sensitive display 112 provides an input interface and an output interface between the device and a user. Display controller 156 receives and/or sends electrical signals from/to touch screen 112. Touch screen 112 displays visual output to the user. The visual output optionally includes graphics, text, icons, video, and any combination thereof (collectively termed “graphics”). In some embodiments, some or all of the visual output optionally corresponds to user-interface objects.


Touch screen 112 has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor, or set of sensors that accepts input from the user based on haptic and/or tactile contact. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 (along with any associated modules and/or sets of instructions in memory 102) detect contact (and any movement or breaking of the contact) on touch screen 112 and convert the detected contact into interaction with user-interface objects (e.g., one or more soft keys, icons, web pages, or images) that are displayed on touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, a point of contact between touch screen 112 and the user corresponds to a finger of the user.


Touch screen 112 optionally uses LCD (liquid crystal display) technology, LPD (light emitting polymer display) technology, or LED (light emitting diode) technology, although other display technologies are used in other embodiments. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 optionally detect contact and any movement or breaking thereof using any of a plurality of touch sensing technologies now known or later developed, including but not limited to capacitive, resistive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave technologies, as well as other proximity sensor arrays or other elements for determining one or more points of contact with touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, projected mutual capacitance sensing technology is used, such as that found in the iPhone® and iPod Touch® from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, California.


A touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of touch screen 112 is, optionally, analogous to the multi-touch sensitive touchpads described in the following U.S. Pat. No. 6,323,846 (Westerman et al.), U.S. Pat. No. 6,570,557 (Westerman et al.), and/or U.S. Pat. No. 6,677,932 (Westerman), and/or U.S. Patent Publication 2002/0015024A1, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. However, touch screen 112 displays visual output from device 100, whereas touch-sensitive touchpads do not provide visual output.


A touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of touch screen 112 is described in the following applications: (1) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/381,313, “Multipoint Touch Surface Controller,” filed May 2, 2006; (2) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/840,862, “Multipoint Touchscreen,” filed May 6, 2004; (3) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/903,964, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed Jul. 30, 2004; (4) U.S. patent application Ser.

Touch screen 112 optionally has a video resolution in excess of 100 dpi. In some embodiments, the touch screen has a video resolution of approximately 160 dpi. The user optionally makes contact with touch screen 112 using any suitable object or appendage, such as a stylus, a finger, and so forth. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work primarily with finger-based contacts and gestures, which can be less precise than stylus-based input due to the larger area of contact of a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device translates the rough finger-based input into a precise pointer/cursor position or command for performing the actions desired by the user.


In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, device 100 optionally includes a touchpad for activating or deactivating particular functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of the device that, unlike the touch screen, does not display visual output. The touchpad is, optionally, a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from touch screen 112 or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touch screen.

Optical sensor 164 receives light from the environment, projected through one or more lenses, and converts the light to data representing an image. In conjunction with imaging module 143 (also called a camera module), optical sensor 164 optionally captures still images or video. In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touch screen display 112 on the front of the device so that the touch screen display is enabled for use as a viewfinder for still and/or video image acquisition. In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the front of the device so that the user's image is, optionally, obtained for video conferencing while the user views the other video conference participants on the touch screen display. In some embodiments, the position of optical sensor 164 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and the sensor in the device housing) so that a single optical sensor 164 is used along with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still and/or video image acquisition.


Device 100 optionally also includes one or more depth camera sensors 175. FIG. 1A shows a depth camera sensor coupled to depth camera controller 169 in I/O subsystem 106. Depth camera sensor 175 receives data from the environment to create a three dimensional model of an object (e.g., a face) within a scene from a viewpoint (e.g., a depth camera sensor). In some embodiments, in conjunction with imaging module 143 (also called a camera module), depth camera sensor 175 is optionally used to determine a depth map of different portions of an image captured by the imaging module 143. In some embodiments, a depth camera sensor is located on the front of device 100 so that the user's image with depth information is, optionally, obtained for video conferencing while the user views the other video conference participants on the touch screen display and to capture selfies with depth map data. In some embodiments, the depth camera sensor 175 is located on the back of device, or on the back and the front of the device 100. In some embodiments, the position of depth camera sensor 175 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and the sensor in the device housing) so that a depth camera sensor 175 is used along with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still and/or video image acquisition.


Device 100 optionally also includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165. FIG. 1A shows a contact intensity sensor coupled to intensity sensor controller 159 in I/O subsystem 106. Contact intensity sensor 165 optionally includes one or more piezoresistive strain gauges, capacitive force sensors, electric force sensors, piezoelectric force sensors, optical force sensors, capacitive touch-sensitive surfaces, or other intensity sensors (e.g., sensors used to measure the force (or pressure) of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface). Contact intensity sensor 165 receives contact intensity information (e.g., pressure information or a proxy for pressure information) from the environment. In some embodiments, at least one contact intensity sensor is collocated with, or proximate to, a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112). In some embodiments, at least one contact intensity sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touch screen display 112, which is located on the front of device 100.


Device 100 optionally also includes one or more proximity sensors 166. FIG. 1A shows proximity sensor 166 coupled to peripherals interface 118. Alternately, proximity sensor 166 is, optionally, coupled to input controller 160 in I/O subsystem 106. Proximity sensor 166 optionally performs as described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/241,839, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device”; Ser. No. 11/240,788, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device”; Ser. No. 11/620,702, “Using Ambient Light Sensor To Augment Proximity Sensor Output”; Ser. No. 11/586,862, “Automated Response To And Sensing Of User Activity In Portable Devices”; and Ser. No. 11/638,251, “Methods And Systems For Automatic Configuration Of Peripherals,” which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. In some embodiments, the proximity sensor turns off and disables touch screen 112 when the multifunction device is placed near the user's ear (e.g., when the user is making a phone call).


Device 100 optionally also includes one or more tactile output generators 167. FIG. 1A shows a tactile output generator coupled to haptic feedback controller 161 in I/O subsystem 106. Tactile output generator 167 optionally includes one or more electroacoustic devices such as speakers or other audio components and/or electromechanical devices that convert energy into linear motion such as a motor, solenoid, electroactive polymer, piezoelectric actuator, electrostatic actuator, or other tactile output generating component (e.g., a component that converts electrical signals into tactile outputs on the device). Contact intensity sensor 165 receives tactile feedback generation instructions from haptic feedback module 133 and generates tactile outputs on device 100 that are capable of being sensed by a user of device 100. In some embodiments, at least one tactile output generator is collocated with, or proximate to, a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112) and, optionally, generates a tactile output by moving the touch-sensitive surface vertically (e.g., in/out of a surface of device 100) or laterally (e.g., back and forth in the same plane as a surface of device 100). In some embodiments, at least one tactile output generator sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touch screen display 112, which is located on the front of device 100.


Device 100 optionally also includes one or more accelerometers 168. FIG. 1A shows accelerometer 168 coupled to peripherals interface 118. Alternately, accelerometer 168 is, optionally, coupled to an input controller 160 in I/O subsystem 106. Accelerometer 168 optionally performs as described in U.S. Patent Publication No. 20050190059, “Acceleration-based Theft Detection System for Portable Electronic Devices,” and U.S. Patent Publication No. 20060017692, “Methods And Apparatuses For Operating A Portable Device Based On An Accelerometer,” both of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. In some embodiments, information is displayed on the touch screen display in a portrait view or a landscape view based on an analysis of data received from the one or more accelerometers. Device 100 optionally includes, in addition to accelerometer(s) 168, a magnetometer and a GPS (or GLONASS or other global navigation system) receiver for obtaining information concerning the location and orientation (e.g., portrait or landscape) of device 100.


In some embodiments, the software components stored in memory 102 include operating system 126, communication module (or set of instructions) 128, contact/motion module (or set of instructions) 130, graphics module (or set of instructions) 132, text input module (or set of instructions) 134, Global Positioning System (GPS) module (or set of instructions) 135, and applications (or sets of instructions) 136. Furthermore, in some embodiments, memory 102 (FIG. 1A) or 370 (FIG. 3) stores device/global internal state 157, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 3. Device/global internal state 157 includes one or more of: active application state, indicating which applications, if any, are currently active; display state, indicating what applications, views or other information occupy various regions of touch screen display 112; sensor state, including information obtained from the device's various sensors and input control devices 116; and location information concerning the device's location and/or attitude.


Operating system 126 (e.g., Darwin, RTXC, LINUX, UNIX, OS X, IOS, WINDOWS, or an embedded operating system such as VxWorks) includes various software components and/or drivers for controlling and managing general system tasks (e.g., memory management, storage device control, power management, etc.) and facilitates communication between various hardware and software components.


Communication module 128 facilitates communication with other devices over one or more external ports 124 and also includes various software components for handling data received by RF circuitry 108 and/or external port 124. External port 124 (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB), FIREWIRE, etc.) is adapted for coupling directly to other devices or indirectly over a network (e.g., the Internet, wireless LAN, etc.). In some embodiments, the external port is a multi-pin (e.g., 30-pin) connector that is the same as, or similar to and/or compatible with, the 30-pin connector used on iPod® (trademark of Apple Inc.) devices.


Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects contact with touch screen 112 (in conjunction with display controller 156) and other touch-sensitive devices (e.g., a touchpad or physical click wheel). Contact/motion module 130 includes various software components for performing various operations related to detection of contact, such as determining if contact has occurred (e.g., detecting a finger-down event), determining an intensity of the contact (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact or a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact), determining if there is movement of the contact and tracking the movement across the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., detecting one or more finger-dragging events), and determining if the contact has ceased (e.g., detecting a finger-up event or a break in contact). Contact/motion module 130 receives contact data from the touch-sensitive surface. Determining movement of the point of contact, which is represented by a series of contact data, optionally includes determining speed (magnitude), velocity (magnitude and direction), and/or an acceleration (a change in magnitude and/or direction) of the point of contact. These operations are, optionally, applied to single contacts (e.g., one finger contacts) or to multiple simultaneous contacts (e.g., “multitouch”/multiple finger contacts). In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 and display controller 156 detect contact on a touchpad.


In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 uses a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an operation has been performed by a user (e.g., to determine whether a user has “clicked” on an icon). In some embodiments, at least a subset of the intensity thresholds are determined in accordance with software parameters (e.g., the intensity thresholds are not determined by the activation thresholds of particular physical actuators and can be adjusted without changing the physical hardware of device 100). For example, a mouse “click” threshold of a trackpad or touch screen display can be set to any of a large range of predefined threshold values without changing the trackpad or touch screen display hardware. Additionally, in some implementations, a user of the device is provided with software settings for adjusting one or more of the set of intensity thresholds (e.g., by adjusting individual intensity thresholds and/or by adjusting a plurality of intensity thresholds at once with a system-level click “intensity” parameter).


Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects a gesture input by a user. Different gestures on the touch-sensitive surface have different contact patterns (e.g., different motions, timings, and/or intensities of detected contacts). Thus, a gesture is, optionally, detected by detecting a particular contact pattern. For example, detecting a finger tap gesture includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting a finger-up (liftoff) event at the same position (or substantially the same position) as the finger-down event (e.g., at the position of an icon). As another example, detecting a finger swipe gesture on the touch-sensitive surface includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting one or more finger-dragging events, and subsequently followed by detecting a finger-up (liftoff) event.


Graphics module 132 includes various known software components for rendering and displaying graphics on touch screen 112 or other display, including components for changing the visual impact (e.g., brightness, transparency, saturation, contrast, or other visual property) of graphics that are displayed. As used herein, the term “graphics” includes any object that can be displayed to a user, including, without limitation, text, web pages, icons (such as user-interface objects including soft keys), digital images, videos, animations, and the like.


In some embodiments, graphics module 132 stores data representing graphics to be used. Each graphic is, optionally, assigned a corresponding code. Graphics module 132 receives, from applications etc., one or more codes specifying graphics to be displayed along with, if necessary, coordinate data and other graphic property data, and then generates screen image data to output to display controller 156.


Haptic feedback module 133 includes various software components for generating instructions used by tactile output generator(s) 167 to produce tactile outputs at one or more locations on device 100 in response to user interactions with device 100.


Text input module 134, which is, optionally, a component of graphics module 132, provides soft keyboards for entering text in various applications (e.g., contacts mode 137, e-mail client module 140, IM module 141, browser module 147, and any other application that needs text input).


GPS module 135 determines the location of the device and provides this information for use in various applications (e.g., to telephone module 138 for use in location-based dialing; to camera module 143 as picture/video metadata; and to applications that provide location-based services such as weather widgets, local yellow page widgets, and map/navigation widgets).

Additional description of the online video application can be found in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/936,562, “Portable Multifunction Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Playing Online Videos,” filed Jun. 20, 2007, and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/968,067, “Portable Multifunction Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Playing Online Videos,” filed Dec. 31, 2007, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.


Each of the above-identified modules and applications corresponds to a set of executable instructions for performing one or more functions described above and the methods described in this application (e.g., the computer-implemented methods and other information processing methods described herein). These modules (e.g., sets of instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs (such as computer programs (e.g., including instructions)), procedures, or modules, and thus various subsets of these modules are, optionally, combined or otherwise rearranged in various embodiments. For example, video player module is, optionally, combined with music player module into a single module (e.g., video and music player module 152, FIG. 1A). In some embodiments, memory 102 optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Furthermore, memory 102 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.


In some embodiments, device 100 is a device where operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively through a touch screen and/or a touchpad. By using a touch screen and/or a touchpad as the primary input control device for operation of device 100, the number of physical input control devices (such as push buttons, dials, and the like) on device 100 is, optionally, reduced.


The predefined set of functions that are performed exclusively through a touch screen and/or a touchpad optionally include navigation between user interfaces. In some embodiments, the touchpad, when touched by the user, navigates device 100 to a main, home, or root menu from any user interface that is displayed on device 100. In such embodiments, a “menu button” is implemented using a touchpad. In some other embodiments, the menu button is a physical push button or other physical input control device instead of a touchpad.



FIG. 1B is a block diagram illustrating exemplary components for event handling in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, memory 102 (FIG. 1A) or 370 (FIG. 3) includes event sorter 170 (e.g., in operating system 126) and a respective application 136-1 (e.g., any of the aforementioned applications 137-151, 155, 380-390).


Event sorter 170 receives event information and determines the application 136-1 and application view 191 of application 136-1 to which to deliver the event information. Event sorter 170 includes event monitor 171 and event dispatcher module 174. In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes application internal state 192, which indicates the current application view(s) displayed on touch-sensitive display 112 when the application is active or executing. In some embodiments, device/global internal state 157 is used by event sorter 170 to determine which application(s) is (are) currently active, and application internal state 192 is used by event sorter 170 to determine application views 191 to which to deliver event information.


In some embodiments, application internal state 192 includes additional information, such as one or more of: resume information to be used when application 136-1 resumes execution, user interface state information that indicates information being displayed or that is ready for display by application 136-1, a state queue for enabling the user to go back to a prior state or view of application 136-1, and a redo/undo queue of previous actions taken by the user.


Event monitor 171 receives event information from peripherals interface 118. Event information includes information about a sub-event (e.g., a user touch on touch-sensitive display 112, as part of a multi-touch gesture). Peripherals interface 118 transmits information it receives from I/O subsystem 106 or a sensor, such as proximity sensor 166, accelerometer(s) 168, and/or microphone 113 (through audio circuitry 110). Information that peripherals interface 118 receives from I/O subsystem 106 includes information from touch-sensitive display 112 or a touch-sensitive surface.


In some embodiments, event monitor 171 sends requests to the peripherals interface 118 at predetermined intervals. In response, peripherals interface 118 transmits event information. In other embodiments, peripherals interface 118 transmits event information only when there is a significant event (e.g., receiving an input above a predetermined noise threshold and/or for more than a predetermined duration).


In some embodiments, event sorter 170 also includes a hit view determination module 172 and/or an active event recognizer determination module 173.


Hit view determination module 172 provides software procedures for determining where a sub-event has taken place within one or more views when touch-sensitive display 112 displays more than one view. Views are made up of controls and other elements that a user can see on the display.


Another aspect of the user interface associated with an application is a set of views, sometimes herein called application views or user interface windows, in which information is displayed and touch-based gestures occur. The application views (of a respective application) in which a touch is detected optionally correspond to programmatic levels within a programmatic or view hierarchy of the application. For example, the lowest level view in which a touch is detected is, optionally, called the hit view, and the set of events that are recognized as proper inputs are, optionally, determined based, at least in part, on the hit view of the initial touch that begins a touch-based gesture.


Hit view determination module 172 receives information related to sub-events of a touch-based gesture. When an application has multiple views organized in a hierarchy, hit view determination module 172 identifies a hit view as the lowest view in the hierarchy which should handle the sub-event. In most circumstances, the hit view is the lowest level view in which an initiating sub-event occurs (e.g., the first sub-event in the sequence of sub-events that form an event or potential event). Once the hit view is identified by the hit view determination module 172, the hit view typically receives all sub-events related to the same touch or input source for which it was identified as the hit view.


Active event recognizer determination module 173 determines which view or views within a view hierarchy should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In some embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that only the hit view should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that all views that include the physical location of a sub-event are actively involved views, and therefore determines that all actively involved views should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, even if touch sub-events were entirely confined to the area associated with one particular view, views higher in the hierarchy would still remain as actively involved views.


Event dispatcher module 174 dispatches the event information to an event recognizer (e.g., event recognizer 180). In embodiments including active event recognizer determination module 173, event dispatcher module 174 delivers the event information to an event recognizer determined by active event recognizer determination module 173. In some embodiments, event dispatcher module 174 stores in an event queue the event information, which is retrieved by a respective event receiver 182.


In some embodiments, operating system 126 includes event sorter 170. Alternatively, application 136-1 includes event sorter 170. In yet other embodiments, event sorter 170 is a stand-alone module, or a part of another module stored in memory 102, such as contact/motion module 130.


In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes a plurality of event handlers 190 and one or more application views 191, each of which includes instructions for handling touch events that occur within a respective view of the application's user interface. Each application view 191 of the application 136-1 includes one or more event recognizers 180. Typically, a respective application view 191 includes a plurality of event recognizers 180. In other embodiments, one or more of event recognizers 180 are part of a separate module, such as a user interface kit or a higher level object from which application 136-1 inherits methods and other properties. In some embodiments, a respective event handler 190 includes one or more of: data updater 176, object updater 177, GUI updater 178, and/or event data 179 received from event sorter 170. Event handler 190 optionally utilizes or calls data updater 176, object updater 177, or GUI updater 178 to update the application internal state 192. Alternatively, one or more of the application views 191 include one or more respective event handlers 190. Also, in some embodiments, one or more of data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178 are included in a respective application view 191.


A respective event recognizer 180 receives event information (e.g., event data 179) from event sorter 170 and identifies an event from the event information. Event recognizer 180 includes event receiver 182 and event comparator 184. In some embodiments, event recognizer 180 also includes at least a subset of: metadata 183, and event delivery instructions 188 (which optionally include sub-event delivery instructions).


Event receiver 182 receives event information from event sorter 170. The event information includes information about a sub-event, for example, a touch or a touch movement. Depending on the sub-event, the event information also includes additional information, such as location of the sub-event. When the sub-event concerns motion of a touch, the event information optionally also includes speed and direction of the sub-event. In some embodiments, events include rotation of the device from one orientation to another (e.g., from a portrait orientation to a landscape orientation, or vice versa), and the event information includes corresponding information about the current orientation (also called device attitude) of the device.


Event comparator 184 compares the event information to predefined event or sub-event definitions and, based on the comparison, determines an event or sub-event, or determines or updates the state of an event or sub-event. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 includes event definitions 186. Event definitions 186 contain definitions of events (e.g., predefined sequences of sub-events), for example, event 1 (187-1), event 2 (187-2), and others. In some embodiments, sub-events in an event (e.g., 187-1 and/or 187-2) include, for example, touch begin, touch end, touch movement, touch cancellation, and multiple touching. In one example, the definition for event 1 (187-1) is a double tap on a displayed object. The double tap, for example, comprises a first touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a first liftoff (touch end) for a predetermined phase, a second touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, and a second liftoff (touch end) for a predetermined phase. In another example, the definition for event 2 (187-2) is a dragging on a displayed object. The dragging, for example, comprises a touch (or contact) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a movement of the touch across touch-sensitive display 112, and liftoff of the touch (touch end). In some embodiments, the event also includes information for one or more associated event handlers 190.


In some embodiments, event definitions 186 include a definition of an event for a respective user-interface object. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which user-interface object is associated with a sub-event. For example, in an application view in which three user-interface objects are displayed on touch-sensitive display 112, when a touch is detected on touch-sensitive display 112, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which of the three user-interface objects is associated with the touch (sub-event). If each displayed object is associated with a respective event handler 190, the event comparator uses the result of the hit test to determine which event handler 190 should be activated. For example, event comparator 184 selects an event handler associated with the sub-event and the object triggering the hit test.


In some embodiments, the definition for a respective event (187) also includes delayed actions that delay delivery of the event information until after it has been determined whether the sequence of sub-events does or does not correspond to the event recognizer's event type.


When a respective event recognizer 180 determines that the series of sub-events do not match any of the events in event definitions 186, the respective event recognizer 180 enters an event impossible, event failed, or event ended state, after which it disregards subsequent sub-events of the touch-based gesture. In this situation, other event recognizers, if any, that remain active for the hit view continue to track and process sub-events of an ongoing touch-based gesture.


In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 includes metadata 183 with configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how the event delivery system should perform sub-event delivery to actively involved event recognizers. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how event recognizers interact, or are enabled to interact, with one another. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate whether sub-events are delivered to varying levels in the view or programmatic hierarchy.


In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 activates event handler 190 associated with an event when one or more particular sub-events of an event are recognized. In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer 180 delivers event information associated with the event to event handler 190. Activating an event handler 190 is distinct from sending (and deferred sending) sub-events to a respective hit view. In some embodiments, event recognizer 180 throws a flag associated with the recognized event, and event handler 190 associated with the flag catches the flag and performs a predefined process.


In some embodiments, event delivery instructions 188 include sub-event delivery instructions that deliver event information about a sub-event without activating an event handler. Instead, the sub-event delivery instructions deliver event information to event handlers associated with the series of sub-events or to actively involved views. Event handlers associated with the series of sub-events or with actively involved views receive the event information and perform a predetermined process.


In some embodiments, data updater 176 creates and updates data used in application 136-1. For example, data updater 176 updates the telephone number used in contacts module 137, or stores a video file used in video player module. In some embodiments, object updater 177 creates and updates objects used in application 136-1. For example, object updater 177 creates a new user-interface object or updates the position of a user-interface object. GUI updater 178 updates the GUI. For example, GUI updater 178 prepares display information and sends it to graphics module 132 for display on a touch-sensitive display.


In some embodiments, event handler(s) 190 includes or has access to data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178. In some embodiments, data updater 176, object updater 177, and GUI updater 178 are included in a single module of a respective application 136-1 or application view 191. In other embodiments, they are included in two or more software modules.


It shall be understood that the foregoing discussion regarding event handling of user touches on touch-sensitive displays also applies to other forms of user inputs to operate multifunction devices 100 with input devices, not all of which are initiated on touch screens. For example, mouse movement and mouse button presses, optionally coordinated with single or multiple keyboard presses or holds; contact movements such as taps, drags, scrolls, etc. on touchpads; pen stylus inputs; movement of the device; oral instructions; detected eye movements; biometric inputs; and/or any combination thereof are optionally utilized as inputs corresponding to sub-events which define an event to be recognized.



FIG. 2 illustrates a portable multifunction device 100 having a touch screen 112 in accordance with some embodiments. The touch screen optionally displays one or more graphics within user interface (UI) 200. In this embodiment, as well as others described below, a user is enabled to select one or more of the graphics by making a gesture on the graphics, for example, with one or more fingers 202 (not drawn to scale in the figure) or one or more styluses 203 (not drawn to scale in the figure). In some embodiments, selection of one or more graphics occurs when the user breaks contact with the one or more graphics. In some embodiments, the gesture optionally includes one or more taps, one or more swipes (from left to right, right to left, upward and/or downward), and/or a rolling of a finger (from right to left, left to right, upward and/or downward) that has made contact with device 100. In some implementations or circumstances, inadvertent contact with a graphic does not select the graphic. For example, a swipe gesture that sweeps over an application icon optionally does not select the corresponding application when the gesture corresponding to selection is a tap.


Device 100 optionally also include one or more physical buttons, such as “home” or menu button 204. As described previously, menu button 204 is, optionally, used to navigate to any application 136 in a set of applications that are, optionally, executed on device 100. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the menu button is implemented as a soft key in a GUI displayed on touch screen 112.


In some embodiments, device 100 includes touch screen 112, menu button 204, push button 206 for powering the device on/off and locking the device, volume adjustment button(s) 208, subscriber identity module (SIM) card slot 210, headset jack 212, and docking/charging external port 124. Push button 206 is, optionally, used to turn the power on/off on the device by depressing the button and holding the button in the depressed state for a predefined time interval; to lock the device by depressing the button and releasing the button before the predefined time interval has elapsed; and/or to unlock the device or initiate an unlock process. In an alternative embodiment, device 100 also accepts verbal input for activation or deactivation of some functions through microphone 113. Device 100 also, optionally, includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 for detecting intensity of contacts on touch screen 112 and/or one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating tactile outputs for a user of device 100.



FIG. 3 is a block diagram of an exemplary multifunction device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface in accordance with some embodiments. Device 300 need not be portable. In some embodiments, device 300 is a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a tablet computer, a multimedia player device, a navigation device, an educational device (such as a child's learning toy), a gaming system, or a control device (e.g., a home or industrial controller). Device 300 typically includes one or more processing units (CPUs) 310, one or more network or other communications interfaces 360, memory 370, and one or more communication buses 320 for interconnecting these components. Communication buses 320 optionally include circuitry (sometimes called a chipset) that interconnects and controls communications between system components. Device 300 includes input/output (I/O) interface 330 comprising display 340, which is typically a touch screen display. I/O interface 330 also optionally includes a keyboard and/or mouse (or other pointing device) 350 and touchpad 355, tactile output generator 357 for generating tactile outputs on device 300 (e.g., similar to tactile output generator(s) 167 described above with reference to FIG. 1A), sensors 359 (e.g., optical, acceleration, proximity, touch-sensitive, and/or contact intensity sensors similar to contact intensity sensor(s) 165 described above with reference to FIG. 1A). Memory 370 includes high-speed random access memory, such as DRAM, SRAM, DDR RAM, or other random access solid state memory devices; and optionally includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, optical disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid state storage devices. Memory 370 optionally includes one or more storage devices remotely located from CPU(s) 310. In some embodiments, memory 370 stores programs, modules, and data structures analogous to the programs, modules, and data structures stored in memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100 (FIG. 1A), or a subset thereof. Furthermore, memory 370 optionally stores additional programs, modules, and data structures not present in memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100. For example, memory 370 of device 300 optionally stores drawing module 380, presentation module 382, word processing module 384, website creation module 386, disk authoring module 388, and/or spreadsheet module 390, while memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100 (FIG. 1A) optionally does not store these modules.


Each of the above-identified elements in FIG. 3 is, optionally, stored in one or more of the previously mentioned memory devices. Each of the above-identified modules corresponds to a set of instructions for performing a function described above. The above-identified modules or computer programs (e.g., sets of instructions or including instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs (such as computer programs (e.g., including instructions)), procedures, or modules, and thus various subsets of these modules are, optionally, combined or otherwise rearranged in various embodiments. In some embodiments, memory 370 optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Furthermore, memory 370 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.


Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces that are, optionally, implemented on, for example, portable multifunction device 100.



FIG. 4A illustrates an exemplary user interface for a menu of applications on portable multifunction device 100 in accordance with some embodiments. Similar user interfaces are, optionally, implemented on device 300. In some embodiments, user interface 400 includes the following elements, or a subset or superset thereof:

      • Icon 446 for a settings application or module, labeled “Settings,” which provides access to settings for device 100 and its various applications 136.


It should be noted that the icon labels illustrated in FIG. 4A are merely exemplary. For example, icon 422 for video and music player module 152 is labeled “Music” or “Music Player.” Other labels are, optionally, used for various application icons. In some embodiments, a label for a respective application icon includes a name of an application corresponding to the respective application icon. In some embodiments, a label for a particular application icon is distinct from a name of an application corresponding to the particular application icon.



FIG. 4B illustrates an exemplary user interface on a device (e.g., device 300, FIG. 3) with a touch-sensitive surface 451 (e.g., a tablet or touchpad 355, FIG. 3) that is separate from the display 450 (e.g., touch screen display 112). Device 300 also, optionally, includes one or more contact intensity sensors (e.g., one or more of sensors 359) for detecting intensity of contacts on touch-sensitive surface 451 and/or one or more tactile output generators 357 for generating tactile outputs for a user of device 300.


Although some of the examples that follow will be given with reference to inputs on touch screen display 112 (where the touch-sensitive surface and the display are combined), in some embodiments, the device detects inputs on a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the display, as shown in FIG. 4B. In some embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., 451 in FIG. 4B) has a primary axis (e.g., 452 in FIG. 4B) that corresponds to a primary axis (e.g., 453 in FIG. 4B) on the display (e.g., 450). In accordance with these embodiments, the device detects contacts (e.g., 460 and 462 in FIG. 4B) with the touch-sensitive surface 451 at locations that correspond to respective locations on the display (e.g., in FIG. 4B, 460 corresponds to 468 and 462 corresponds to 470). In this way, user inputs (e.g., contacts 460 and 462, and movements thereof) detected by the device on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., 451 in FIG. 4B) are used by the device to manipulate the user interface on the display (e.g., 450 in FIG. 4B) of the multifunction device when the touch-sensitive surface is separate from the display. It should be understood that similar methods are, optionally, used for other user interfaces described herein.


Additionally, while the following examples are given primarily with reference to finger inputs (e.g., finger contacts, finger tap gestures, finger swipe gestures), it should be understood that, in some embodiments, one or more of the finger inputs are replaced with input from another input device (e.g., a mouse-based input or stylus input). For example, a swipe gesture is, optionally, replaced with a mouse click (e.g., instead of a contact) followed by movement of the cursor along the path of the swipe (e.g., instead of movement of the contact). As another example, a tap gesture is, optionally, replaced with a mouse click while the cursor is located over the location of the tap gesture (e.g., instead of detection of the contact followed by ceasing to detect the contact). Similarly, when multiple user inputs are simultaneously detected, it should be understood that multiple computer mice are, optionally, used simultaneously, or a mouse and finger contacts are, optionally, used simultaneously.



FIG. 5A illustrates exemplary personal electronic device 500. Device 500 includes body 502. In some embodiments, device 500 can include some or all of the features described with respect to devices 100 and 300 (e.g., FIGS. 1A-4B). In some embodiments, device 500 has touch-sensitive display screen 504, hereafter touch screen 504. Alternatively, or in addition to touch screen 504, device 500 has a display and a touch-sensitive surface. As with devices 100 and 300, in some embodiments, touch screen 504 (or the touch-sensitive surface) optionally includes one or more intensity sensors for detecting intensity of contacts (e.g., touches) being applied. The one or more intensity sensors of touch screen 504 (or the touch-sensitive surface) can provide output data that represents the intensity of touches. The user interface of device 500 can respond to touches based on their intensity, meaning that touches of different intensities can invoke different user interface operations on device 500.


Exemplary techniques for detecting and processing touch intensity are found, for example, in related applications: International Patent Application Serial No. PCT/US2013/040061, titled “Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Displaying User Interface Objects Corresponding to an Application,” filed May 8, 2013, published as WIPO Publication No. WO/2013/169849, and International Patent Application Serial No. PCT/US2013/069483, titled “Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Transitioning Between Touch Input to Display Output Relationships,” filed Nov. 11, 2013, published as WIPO Publication No. WO/2014/105276, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.


In some embodiments, device 500 has one or more input mechanisms 506 and 508. Input mechanisms 506 and 508, if included, can be physical. Examples of physical input mechanisms include push buttons and rotatable mechanisms. In some embodiments, device 500 has one or more attachment mechanisms. Such attachment mechanisms, if included, can permit attachment of device 500 with, for example, hats, eyewear, earrings, necklaces, shirts, jackets, bracelets, watch straps, chains, trousers, belts, shoes, purses, backpacks, and so forth. These attachment mechanisms permit device 500 to be worn by a user.



FIG. 5B depicts exemplary personal electronic device 500. In some embodiments, device 500 can include some or all of the components described with respect to FIGS. 1A, 1B, and 3. Device 500 has bus 512 that operatively couples I/O section 514 with one or more computer processors 516 and memory 518. I/O section 514 can be connected to display 504, which can have touch-sensitive component 522 and, optionally, intensity sensor 524 (e.g., contact intensity sensor). In addition, I/O section 514 can be connected with communication unit 530 for receiving application and operating system data, using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, near field communication (NFC), cellular, and/or other wireless communication techniques. Device 500 can include input mechanisms 506 and/or 508. Input mechanism 506 is, optionally, a rotatable input device or a depressible and rotatable input device, for example. Input mechanism 508 is, optionally, a button, in some examples.


Input mechanism 508 is, optionally, a microphone, in some examples. Personal electronic device 500 optionally includes various sensors, such as GPS sensor 532, accelerometer 534, directional sensor 540 (e.g., compass), gyroscope 536, motion sensor 538, and/or a combination thereof, all of which can be operatively connected to I/O section 514.


Memory 518 of personal electronic device 500 can include one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage mediums, for storing computer-executable instructions, which, when executed by one or more computer processors 516, for example, can cause the computer processors to perform the techniques described below, including processes 700, 750, and 900 (FIGS. 7A, 7B, and 9). A computer-readable storage medium can be any medium that can tangibly contain or store computer-executable instructions for use by or in connection with the instruction execution system, apparatus, or device. In some examples, the storage medium is a transitory computer-readable storage medium. In some examples, the storage medium is a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium can include, but is not limited to, magnetic, optical, and/or semiconductor storages. Examples of such storage include magnetic disks, optical discs based on CD, DVD, or Blu-ray technologies, as well as persistent solid-state memory such as flash, solid-state drives, and the like. Personal electronic device 500 is not limited to the components and configuration of FIG. 5B, but can include other or additional components in multiple configurations.


As used here, the term “affordance” refers to a user-interactive graphical user interface object that is, optionally, displayed on the display screen of devices 100, 300, and/or 500 (FIGS. 1A, 3, and 5A-5B). For example, an image (e.g., icon), a button, and text (e.g., hyperlink) each optionally constitute an affordance.


As used herein, the term “focus selector” refers to an input element that indicates a current part of a user interface with which a user is interacting. In some implementations that include a cursor or other location marker, the cursor acts as a “focus selector” so that when an input (e.g., a press input) is detected on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touchpad 355 in FIG. 3 or touch-sensitive surface 451 in FIG. 4B) while the cursor is over a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element), the particular user interface element is adjusted in accordance with the detected input. In some implementations that include a touch screen display (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112 in FIG. 1A or touch screen 112 in FIG. 4A) that enables direct interaction with user interface elements on the touch screen display, a detected contact on the touch screen acts as a “focus selector” so that when an input (e.g., a press input by the contact) is detected on the touch screen display at a location of a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element), the particular user interface element is adjusted in accordance with the detected input. In some implementations, focus is moved from one region of a user interface to another region of the user interface without corresponding movement of a cursor or movement of a contact on a touch screen display (e.g., by using a tab key or arrow keys to move focus from one button to another button); in these implementations, the focus selector moves in accordance with movement of focus between different regions of the user interface. Without regard to the specific form taken by the focus selector, the focus selector is generally the user interface element (or contact on a touch screen display) that is controlled by the user so as to communicate the user's intended interaction with the user interface (e.g., by indicating, to the device, the element of the user interface with which the user is intending to interact). For example, the location of a focus selector (e.g., a cursor, a contact, or a selection box) over a respective button while a press input is detected on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchpad or touch screen) will indicate that the user is intending to activate the respective button (as opposed to other user interface elements shown on a display of the device).


As used in the specification and claims, the term “characteristic intensity” of a contact refers to a characteristic of the contact based on one or more intensities of the contact. In some embodiments, the characteristic intensity is based on multiple intensity samples. The characteristic intensity is, optionally, based on a predefined number of intensity samples, or a set of intensity samples collected during a predetermined time period (e.g., 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10 seconds) relative to a predefined event (e.g., after detecting the contact, prior to detecting liftoff of the contact, before or after detecting a start of movement of the contact, prior to detecting an end of the contact, before or after detecting an increase in intensity of the contact, and/or before or after detecting a decrease in intensity of the contact). A characteristic intensity of a contact is, optionally, based on one or more of: a maximum value of the intensities of the contact, a mean value of the intensities of the contact, an average value of the intensities of the contact, a top 10 percentile value of the intensities of the contact, a value at the half maximum of the intensities of the contact, a value at the 90 percent maximum of the intensities of the contact, or the like. In some embodiments, the duration of the contact is used in determining the characteristic intensity (e.g., when the characteristic intensity is an average of the intensity of the contact over time). In some embodiments, the characteristic intensity is compared to a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an operation has been performed by a user. For example, the set of one or more intensity thresholds optionally includes a first intensity threshold and a second intensity threshold. In this example, a contact with a characteristic intensity that does not exceed the first threshold results in a first operation, a contact with a characteristic intensity that exceeds the first intensity threshold and does not exceed the second intensity threshold results in a second operation, and a contact with a characteristic intensity that exceeds the second threshold results in a third operation. In some embodiments, a comparison between the characteristic intensity and one or more thresholds is used to determine whether or not to perform one or more operations (e.g., whether to perform a respective operation or forgo performing the respective operation), rather than being used to determine whether to perform a first operation or a second operation.


As used herein, an “installed application” refers to a software application that has been downloaded onto an electronic device (e.g., devices 100, 300, and/or 500) and is ready to be launched (e.g., become opened) on the device. In some embodiments, a downloaded application becomes an installed application by way of an installation program that extracts program portions from a downloaded package and integrates the extracted portions with the operating system of the computer system.


As used herein, the terms “open application” or “executing application” refer to a software application with retained state information (e.g., as part of device/global internal state 157 and/or application internal state 192). An open or executing application is, optionally, any one of the following types of applications:

    • an active application, which is currently displayed on a display screen of the device that the application is being used on;
    • a background application (or background processes), which is not currently displayed, but one or more processes for the application are being processed by one or more processors; and
    • a suspended or hibernated application, which is not running, but has state information that is stored in memory (volatile and non-volatile, respectively) and that can be used to resume execution of the application.


As used herein, the term “closed application” refers to software applications without retained state information (e.g., state information for closed applications is not stored in a memory of the device). Accordingly, closing an application includes stopping and/or removing application processes for the application and removing state information for the application from the memory of the device. Generally, opening a second application while in a first application does not close the first application. When the second application is displayed and the first application ceases to be displayed, the first application becomes a background application.


In some embodiments, the computer system is in a locked state or an unlocked state. In the locked state, the computer system is powered on and operational but is prevented from performing a predefined set of operations in response to user input. The predefined set of operations optionally includes navigation between user interfaces, activation or deactivation of a predefined set of functions, and activation or deactivation of certain applications. The locked state can be used to prevent unintentional or unauthorized use of some functionality of the computer system or activation or deactivation of some functions on the computer system. In some embodiments, in the unlocked state, the computer system is powered on and operational and is not prevented from performing at least a portion of the predefined set of operations that cannot be performed while in the locked state. When the computer system is in the locked state, the computer system is said to be locked. When the computer system is in the unlocked state, the computer is said to be unlocked. In some embodiments, the computer system in the locked state optionally responds to a limited set of user inputs, including input that corresponds to an attempt to transition the computer system to the unlocked state or input that corresponds to powering the computer system off.


Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces (“UI”) and associated processes that are implemented on an electronic device, such as portable multifunction device 100, device 300, or device 500.



FIGS. 6A-6AF illustrate exemplary user interfaces for sharing and accessing workout content, in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in FIGS. 7A and 7B.



FIG. 6A illustrates electronic device 600, which is a smartwatch with touch-sensitive display 602, rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604a, and button 604b. At FIG. 6A, electronic device 600 displays workout selection user interface 606. Workout selection user interface 606 includes various workout options 608a-608g, with each workout option 608a-608g corresponding to a particular workout (e.g., a preconfigured workout). Workout selection user interface 606 also includes option 608h that is selectable to initiate a process for creating and/or defining a new workout. In some embodiments, creating a new workout includes selecting a modality type for the workout, selecting a goal type for the workout and, if needed, defining a goal value for the selected goal type, as will be described in greater detail below.


In some embodiments, a workout includes (e.g., is defined by and/or is defined partially by) a modality type and a goal type. Furthermore, for certain goal types, a workout includes a goal value. For example, workout option 608a has outdoor run as its modality type, and open goal as its goal type. In some embodiments, an open goal workout does not have any defined duration or goal, so there is no goal value associated with an open goal workout. Workout option 608b has outdoor swim as its modality type, and distance goal as its goal type, and a goal value of 200 meters. Workout option 608c has multisport as its modality type. In some embodiments, workouts with multisport as their modality type do not have a goal type, but rather are defined by an ordered sequence of a plurality of workout segments, with each workout segment having its own modality type. For example, in FIG. 6A, workout option 608c is a preconfigured “triathlon” multisport workout that has three segments: an outdoor swim segment, an outdoor cycle segment, and an outdoor run segment. Option 608d is a workout that has outdoor run as its modality type, and race a route as its goal type, which is a workout in which a user races against a previous instance in which the user ran a particular route, and the goal value corresponds to the route the user completed previously (identified in FIG. 6A as “Palo Alto (5 MI)”). Option 608e corresponds to a workout with outdoor run as its modality type, and intervals as its goal type, and 3 by 2 miles as its goal value. Option 608f corresponds to a workout with outdoor bike as its modality type, time goal as its goal type, and 1 hour as its goal value. Option 608g corresponds to a workout with outdoor run as its modality type, time and distance as its goal type, and 30 minutes and 3 miles as its goal values.


In some embodiments, workout options 608a-608g are sorted and/or ordered based on one or more factors. In various embodiments, the one or more factors include one or more of: how recently the workout was completed by the user (e.g., workouts performed more recently by the user are given preference (e.g., a higher score and/or a higher ranking)), how recently the workout was created (e.g., workouts created more recently are given preference), how many times the user has completed the workout (e.g., workouts performed more often by the user are given preference), and/or other situational information (e.g., if the user is nearby a route that the user previously completed in a workout, a race-a-route workout option corresponding to the previously completed route is given preference). Furthermore, in some embodiments, electronic device 600 has more preconfigured workouts than what is shown in workout selection user interface 606, but a subset of those preconfigured workouts are presented in and/or included in workout selection user interface 606 based on the sorting and/or ranking of preconfigured workouts (e.g., the top x workouts are selected for display in workout selection user interface 606).


In the depicted embodiment, each workout option 608a-608g is selectable to initiate a corresponding workout session (e.g., a workout session corresponding to the workout represented by the workout option). Furthermore, each workout option 608a-608g has a corresponding option 608i-6080 that is selectable to view additional options corresponding to the selected workout. For example, for workout option 608a, a user is able to select workout option 608a to initiate an open goal outdoor run workout session (and display a corresponding in-workout user interface), or select option 608i to display additional options corresponding to the outdoor run open goal workout. At FIG. 6A, electronic device 600 detects user input 610 (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 608m.


At FIG. 6B, in response to user input 610, electronic device displays outdoor run room user interface 612 (e.g., based on the fact that option 608m corresponds to a preconfigured workout that has outdoor run as its modality type). In FIG. 6B, outdoor run room user interface 612 includes options 614a-614h corresponding to a plurality of preconfigured workouts of the outdoor run modality type. Each option 614a-614h is selectable to initiate a workout session (and, in some embodiments, display a corresponding in-workout user interface) for the selected workout. Furthermore, each option 614a-614h includes a corresponding option 614i-614p that is selectable to display one or more options for modifying one or more aspects of the selected workout. Outdoor run room user interface 612 also includes option 614q that is selectable to create a new outdoor run interval workout. At FIG. 6B, electronic device 600 detects user input 615 corresponding to selection of option 614q.


At FIG. 6C, in response to user input 615, electronic device 600 displays interval workout creation user interface 1404. Interval workout creation user interface 1404 includes segment representation 1408a corresponding to a warm up segment of the interval workout and segment representation 1408b corresponding to a cool down segment of the interval workout.


In FIG. 6C, interval workout creation user interface 1404 also includes selectable options 1406a-1406g. Option 1406a is selectable to initiate a process for adding a segment to the interval workout. Option 1406b is selectable to modify a title of the interval workout. Option 1406b displays the current title, “3×2 MI.” Option 1406c is selectable to modify one or more workout metrics and/or workout metrics user interfaces that are accessible during the interval workout. Option 1406d is selectable to initiate a workout session for the interval workout as it is currently configured (in FIG. 6C, it is configured with only a 5 mile warm up and a 5 minute cool down). Option 1406f is selectable to share the workout with another person, as will be described in greater detail below. Option 1406g is selectable to delete the interval workout. Option 1406e is selectable to return to outdoor run room user interface 612. At FIG. 6C, electronic device 600 detects user input 1410a (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of segment representation 1408a, user input 1410b (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1406a, and user input 1410c (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of segment representation 1408b. Each of these user inputs will be discussed below.


At FIG. 6D, in response to user input 1410a, electronic device 600 displays warm up segment configuration user interface 1412. Warm up segment configuration user interface 1412 includes options 1414a-1414d that are selectable to set a goal type for the warm up segment. Indication 1416 indicates that distance goal is the currently selected goal type for the warm up segment. In some embodiments, in an interval workout, each segment of the workout is associated with a goal type and a goal value, and the segment of the workout automatically ends once the goal value is achieved. For example, in FIG. 6D, the warm up segment has distance goal as its goal type, and goal value of 5 miles, such that once the user has run 5 miles (e.g., as determined by electronic device 600), electronic device 600 automatically ends the warm up segment and transitions to a next segment of the workout. Warm up segment configuration user interface 1412 also includes selectable options 1414e-1414i. Option 1414e is selectable to define a goal value for the workout segment. Option 1414f is selectable to modify one or more alerts that are to be output during the segment. Option 1414g is selectable to modify one or more workout metrics and/or workout metrics user interfaces that are accessible during the workout segment. In some embodiments, the user can define alerts and/or workout metrics for each individual segment of the interval workout. Option 1414h is selectable to delete the workout segment from the interval workout. Option 1414i is selectable to return to interval workout creation user interface 1404.


At FIG. 6E, in response to user input 1410c (in FIG. 6C), electronic device 600 displays cool down segment configuration user interface 1418, which is substantially similar to warm up segment configuration user interface 1412. Options 1420a-1420d are selectable to choose a goal type for the cool down segment, and option 1420e is selectable to define a goal value for the cool down segment. Currently, the cool down segment is configured as a time goal segment with a time goal value of 5 minutes. Option 1420f is selectable to modify alerts to be output during the cool down segment, option 1420g is selectable to modify workout metrics that are accessible during the cool down segment, option 1420h is selectable to remove the cool down segment from the interval workout, and option 1420i is selectable to return to interval workout creation user interface 1404.


At FIG. 6F, in response to user input 1410b (in FIG. 6C), electronic device 600 displays segment type user interface 1424, which includes options 1426a-1426d. Option 1426a is selectable to add a work step to the interval workout and option 1426b is selectable to add a recovery step to the interval workout. In some embodiments, segment type user interface 1424 includes options to add other segment types, such as a warm up segment, a cool down segment, or other segments. In FIG. 6F, step type user interface includes option 1426c, which is made to be not selectable in FIG. 6F because the interval workout does not have any repeatable segments (e.g., the warm up segment and the cool down segment are the only segments current in the interval workout, and, in the depicted embodiment, they are non-repeatable segments). Accordingly, repeat option 1426c is not selectable in FIG. 6F. Option 1426d is selectable to return to interval workout creation user interface 1404. At FIG. 6F, electronic device 600 detects user input 1428a (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1426a, and user input 1428b (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1426b.


At FIG. 6G, in response to user input 1426b, electronic device 600 displays user interface 1430, which allows the user to select a goal type for the recovery segment the user would like to add to the interval workout. Option 1432a is selectable to add a recovery step with a time goal as its goal type, and option 1432b is selectable to add a recovery step with a distance goal as its goal type. Selecting option 1432a causes electronic device 600 to display user interface 1432 to define a goal value for the time goal, and selecting option 1432b causes electronic device 600 to display user interface 1436 to define a goal value for the distance goal. Selection of option 1434c results in a time-based recovery step being added to the interval workout, and selection of option 1438c results in a distance-based recovery step being added to the interval workout.


At FIG. 6H, in response to user input 1426a (in FIG. 6F), electronic device 600 displays user interface 1440 which allows a user to select a goal type for the work step the user would like to add to the interval workout. Option 1442a corresponds to an open goal goal type, option 1442b corresponds to a distance goal goal type, option 1442c corresponds to a calorie goal goal type, option 1442d corresponds to a time goal goal type, and option 1442e corresponds to a distance+time goal goal type. Option 1442f is selectable to return to interval workout creation user interface 1404. At FIG. 6H, electronic device 600 detects user input 1444 (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1442b.


At FIG. 6I, in response to user input 1444, electronic device 600 displays user interface 1446 which prompts the user to set a distance goal value. Had the user chosen a different goal type in FIG. 6H, electronic device 600 would display a different user interface prompting the user to define a goal value for the selected goal type. In some embodiments, the user can adjust the goal value up or down by, for example, rotating rotatable input mechanism 604a. In FIG. 6I, electronic device 600 detects user input 1450 (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1448d.


At FIG. 6J, in response to user input 1450, electronic device 600 displays interval workout creation user interface 1404 with a new segment representation 1408c representing the 5-mile work segment that was added in response to user input 1450. At FIG. 6J, electronic device 600 detects user input 1452 (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1406a.


At FIG. 6K, in response to user input 1452, electronic device 600 displays segment type user interface 1424. However, now that a repeatable segment has been added to the interval workout (e.g., the 5-mile work step represented by representation 1408c), segment type user interface 1424 now includes selectable option 1426c. Details of selectable option 1426c will be explored in the next few figures.


At FIG. 6L, the user has added four additional segments represented by segment representations 1408d-1408g (e.g., using the steps described above with reference to FIGS. 6C-6J). At FIG. 6L, electronic device 600 detects user input 1455 (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1406a.


At FIG. 6M, in response to user input 1455, electronic device 600 displays segment type user interface 1424 which, in accordance with a determination that the interval workout includes one or more repeatable segments, including selectable option 1426c. At FIG. 6M, electronic device 600 detects user input 1456 (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1426c.


At FIG. 6N, in response to user input 1456, electronic device displays user interface 1458, which displays options 1462a-1462e corresponding to each repeatable segment in the interval workout. By interacting with user interface 1458, the user is able to identify which repeatable segment the user would like to repeat in the interval workout. At FIG. 6N, electronic device 600 detects user input 1464a (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1462a, user input 1464c (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1462c, user input 1464d (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1462d, and user input 1464e (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 1462e.

FIG. 7A is a flow diagram illustrating a method for accessing workout content using a computer system in accordance with some embodiments. Method 700 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500) that is in communication with one or more display generation components (e.g., a display, a touch-sensitive display, a monitor, a visual output device, a 3D display, a display having at least a portion that is transparent or translucent on which images can be projected (e.g., a see-through display), a projector, a heads-up display, and/or a display controller) and one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display); a mouse; a keyboard; a remote control; a visual input device (e.g., one or more cameras (e.g., an infrared camera, a depth camera, a visible light camera, and/or a gaze tracking camera)); an audio input device; a biometric sensor (e.g., a fingerprint sensor, a face identification sensor, a gaze tracking sensor, and/or an iris identification sensor) and/or one or more mechanical input devices (e.g., a depressible input mechanism; a button; a rotatable input mechanism; a crown; and/or a dial)). Some operations in method 700 are, optionally, combined, the orders of some operations are, optionally, changed, and some operations are, optionally, omitted.


In some embodiments, the electronic device (e.g., 600) is a computer system. The computer system is optionally in communication (e.g., wired communication, wireless communication) with a display generation component and with one or more input devices. The display generation component is configured to provide visual output, such as display via a CRT display, display via an LED display, or display via image projection. In some embodiments, the display generation component is integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the display generation component is separate from the computer system. The one or more input devices are configured to receive input, such as a touch-sensitive surface receiving user input. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are separate from the computer system. Thus, the computer system can transmit, via a wired or wireless connection, data (e.g., image data or video data) to an integrated or external display generation component to visually produce the content (e.g., using a display device) and can receive, a wired or wireless connection, input from the one or more input devices.


As described below, method 700 provides an intuitive way for accessing workout content. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user for accessing workout content, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, enabling a user to access workout content faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.


The computer system (e.g., 600 and/or 650) displays (702), via the one or more display generation components (e.g., 602 and/or 652), a messaging user interface (e.g., 623 and/or 680) corresponding to an asynchronous messaging session between a user of the computer system and one or more other participants in the asynchronous messaging session (e.g., one or more other participants using one or more external computer systems separate from and/or different from the computer system) including a first participant (in some embodiments, the messaging user interface includes representations of a plurality of messages transmitted into the asynchronous messaging session by the user of the computer system and/or the one or more other participants in the asynchronous messaging session);


The computer system receives (704) first information that corresponds to a first workout that is shared into the asynchronous messaging session by the first participant (e.g., FIGS. 6V-6Y).


The computer system (e.g., 650), in response to receiving the first information, displays (706), via the one or more display generation components and within the messaging user interface (e.g., 680), a first object (e.g., 662b) corresponding to the first workout that is shared into the asynchronous messaging session by the first participant (in some embodiments, the messaging user interface also includes representations of a plurality of messages transmitted into the asynchronous messaging session by the user of the computer system and/or the one or more other participants in the asynchronous messaging session).


While displaying the first object (e.g., 662b) corresponding to the first workout, the computer system receives (708), via the one or more input devices, a first input (e.g., 664) (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more mechanical inputs (e.g., one or more presses of a button and/or rotations of a rotatable input mechanism), and/or one or more other inputs) corresponding to selection of the first object.


In response to receiving the first input, the computer system displays (710) a first user interface (e.g., 666) corresponding to the first workout. In some embodiments, the first user interface includes a first option (e.g., 668b) that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first workout. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first input, the computer system initiates a workout session corresponding to the first workout (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes initiating recording of one or more physical activity metrics (e.g., heartrate, workout time elapsed, distance traversed, and/or calories burned) for the workout session (e.g., via one or more sensors in communication with the computer system)) (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes recording one or more physical activity metrics at a greater frequency than prior to initiation of the workout session). In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 1477) includes one or more workout metrics corresponding to the first workout and/or one or more workout metrics corresponding to the workout session (e.g., one or more workout metrics recorded during the workout session and/or one or more workout metrics indicative of a level of physical activity during the workout session (e.g., heart rate, calories burned, distance traveled, and/or power output (e.g., running power and/or cycling power)). Enabling users to share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, displaying the first user interface (e.g., 666) corresponding to the first workout comprises displaying a start workout object (e.g., 668b) within the first user interface. While displaying the first user interface including the start workout object, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, a selection input (e.g., 670) (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more mechanical inputs (e.g., one or more presses of a button and/or rotations of a rotatable input mechanism), and/or one or more other inputs) corresponding to selection of the start workout object, and in response to receiving the selection input corresponding to selection of the start workout object: the computer system initiates a workout session corresponding to the first workout (e.g., a workout session of a first modality and/or a workout session of a first goal type), including initiating recording (e.g., tracking and/or measuring) of one or more physical activity metrics for the workout session corresponding to the first workout (e.g., one or more physical activity metrics indicative of a physical activity level of the user during the workout session (e.g., heart rate, calories burned, steps taken, and/or distance traversed)); and the computer system displays a first workout session user interface (e.g., 1477) indicative of an active workout session (e.g., indicative of a currently active and/or in-progress workout session) (in some embodiments, the first workout session user interface displays one or more workout performance metrics that are indicative of a physical activity level of the user during the current workout session). Enabling users to share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface, and allowing users to initiate the workout with one or more user inputs from the messaging user interface, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the workout session is initiated and the first workout session user interface (e.g., 1477) is displayed in response to receiving the selection input (e.g., 670) corresponding to selection of the start workout object without adding the first workout to a first set of workouts (e.g., a first set of workouts that are displayed in a workout user interface (e.g., a workout user interface that includes representations of a plurality of different workouts (e.g., representations that are selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the respective selected workout)); a first set of workouts that are saved on the computer system; and/or a first set of workouts that are accessible within a fitness application) (e.g., without saving the first workout to a first fitness application and/or a first workout application). Enabling users to share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface, and allowing users to initiate the workout with one or more user inputs from the messaging user interface, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, displaying the first user interface (e.g., 666) corresponding to the first workout further comprises displaying a save workout object (e.g., 668c) within the first user interface (e.g., displaying the save workout object concurrently with the start workout object). In some embodiments, while displaying the first user interface including the save workout object, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, a selection input (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more mechanical inputs (e.g., one or more presses of a button and/or rotations of a rotatable input mechanism), and/or one or more other inputs) corresponding to selection of the save workout object, and in response to receiving the selection input corresponding to selection of the save workout object, the computer system adds the first workout to the first set of workouts (e.g., a first set of workouts that are displayed in a workout user interface (e.g., a workout user interface that includes representations of a plurality of different workouts (e.g., representations that are selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the respective selected workout)) (in some embodiments, adding the first workout to the first set of workouts causes a representation of the first workout to be displayed within the workout user interface (e.g., a representation that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first workout)); a first set of workouts that are saved on the computer system; and/or a first set of workouts that are accessible within a fitness application) (and, optionally, without initiating a workout session corresponding to the first workout). Enabling users to share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface, and allowing users to add the workout to their own device via one or more user inputs from the messaging user interface, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, subsequent to completion of the workout session corresponding to the first workout (e.g., in response to completion of the workout session corresponding to the first workout) (e.g., completion of the workout session corresponding to the first workout based on one or more user inputs requesting to end the workout session and/or based on completion of all workout content contained within the first workout), the computer system displays, via the one or more display generation components, a first save workout option (e.g., 674c) (in some embodiments, the first add workout option is displayed within a workout summary user interface that is indicative of completion of the workout session corresponding to the first workout). While displaying the first save workout object, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, a selection input (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more mechanical inputs (e.g., one or more presses of a button and/or rotations of a rotatable input mechanism), and/or one or more other inputs) corresponding to selection of the first save workout object, and in response to receiving the selection input corresponding to selection of the first save workout object, the computer system adds the first workout to a first collection of workouts (e.g., a first collection of workouts that are displayed in a workout user interface (e.g., a workout user interface that includes representations of a plurality of different workouts (e.g., representations that are selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the respective selected workout)) (in some embodiments, adding the first workout to the first collection of workouts causes a representation of the first workout to be displayed within the workout user interface (e.g., a representation that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first workout)); a first collection of workouts that are saved on the computer system; and/or a first collection of workouts that are accessible within a fitness application). Displaying a save workout object that allows a user to save a workout to the computer system enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, displaying the first user interface (e.g., 666) corresponding to the first workout comprises displaying an add workout object (e.g., 668c) within the first user interface. While displaying the first user interface including the add workout object, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, a selection input (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more mechanical inputs (e.g., one or more presses of a button and/or rotations of a rotatable input mechanism), and/or one or more other inputs) corresponding to selection of the add workout object, and in response to receiving the selection input corresponding to selection of the add workout object, the computer system adds the first workout to a set of workouts (e.g., a set of workouts that are displayed in a workout user interface (e.g., a workout user interface that includes representations of a plurality of different workouts (e.g., representations that are selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the respective selected workout)) (in some embodiments, adding the first workout to the set of workouts causes a representation of the first workout to be displayed within the workout user interface (e.g., a representation that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first workout)); a set of workouts that are saved on the computer system; and/or a set of workouts that are accessible within a fitness application). Displaying an add workout object that allows a user to save a workout to the computer system enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, at a first time prior to adding the first workout to the set of workouts, the computer system (e.g., 650) displays, via the one or more display generation components, a workout selection user interface (e.g., 606), wherein the workout selection user interface includes a first plurality of workout platters (e.g., 608a-608g) corresponding to a first plurality of different workouts, including: a first workout platter (e.g., 608a-608g) (e.g., user interface object and/or affordance) associated with a second workout different from the first workout (in some embodiments, a second workout of a second workout type (e.g., a second workout modality and/or a second workout goal type)), and a second workout platter (e.g., 608a-608g) (e.g., user interface object and/or affordance) associated with a third workout different from the first workout and the second workout (in some embodiments, a third workout of a third workout type (e.g., a third workout modality and/or a third workout goal type)) (in some embodiments, a third workout platter distinct from and/or separate from the second workout platter), wherein, at the first time, the workout selection user interface does not include a representation of the first workout (e.g., does not include 678) (e.g., does not include a workout platter corresponding to the first workout (e.g., the first plurality of workout platters does not include a workout platter corresponding to the first workout)); and at a second time subsequent to adding the first workout to the set of workouts, displaying, via the one or more display generation components, the workout selection user interface (e.g., 606), wherein, at the second time, the workout selection user interface includes a second plurality of workout platters corresponding to a second plurality of different workouts, including a third workout platter (e.g., 678) associated with the first workout (e.g., a workout platter that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first workout). Providing an option that allows a user to save a workout to the computer system enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, at the second time, the workout selection user interface (e.g., 606) includes the first workout platter (e.g., 608a-608g) associated with the second workout, and the second workout platter (e.g., 608a-608g) associated with the third workout; the first workout corresponds to a first workout type (e.g., a first workout modality); the second workout corresponds to a second workout type (e.g., a second workout modality) different from the first workout type; and the third workout corresponds to a third workout type (e.g., a third workout modality) different from the first workout type and the second workout type. Displaying an option that allows a user to save a workout to the computer system enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the second workout type is selected from a group consisting of: running, cycling, swimming, yoga, HIIT, and strength; and the third workout type is selected from the group consisting of: running, cycling, swimming, yoga, HIIT, and strength. Displaying an add workout object that allows a user to save a workout to the computer system enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the second workout (e.g., 608a-608g) is a custom workout created by a user of the computer system, wherein the second workout comprises a plurality of intervals, including: a first interval having a first interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the user and a first interval duration specified by the user (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the first interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the first interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the first interval)); and a second interval different from the first interval, the second interval having a second interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the user and a second interval duration specified by the user (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the second interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the second interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the second interval)). In some embodiments the first workout is a custom workout created by a remote user different from the user of the computer system (e.g., created by the first participant). In some embodiments, the first workout includes a first plurality of intervals, including: a third interval having a third interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the remote user and a third interval duration specified by the remote user (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the third interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the third interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the third interval)); and a fourth interval different from the third interval, the fourth interval having a fourth interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the remote user and a fourth interval duration specified by the remote user (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the fourth interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the fourth interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the fourth interval)). Allowing users to create custom workouts enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the third workout is a custom workout created by a remote user different from the user of the computer system (e.g., 678), wherein the third workout comprises a third plurality of intervals, including: a third interval having a third interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the remote user and a third interval duration specified by the remote user (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the third interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the third interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the third interval)); and a fourth interval different from the third interval, the fourth interval having a fourth interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the remote user and a fourth interval duration specified by the remote user (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the fourth interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the fourth interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the fourth interval)). Allowing users to create and share custom workouts enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the first workout is a custom workout (e.g., 608c) created by the first participant (or, in some embodiments, a different remote user different from the first participant and the user of the computer system), wherein the first workout comprises a plurality of intervals, including: a first respective interval having a first respective interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the first participant and a first respective interval duration specified by the first participant (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the first respective interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the first respective interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the first respective interval)); and a second respective interval different from the first respective interval, the second respective interval having a second respective interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) selected by the first participant and a second respective interval duration specified by the first participant (e.g., a time goal duration (e.g., a user-specified duration of time for the second respective interval), a distance goal duration (e.g., a user-specified distance to be traversed in the second respective interval), and/or a calorie goal duration (e.g., a user-specified number of calories to be burned during the second respective interval)); and displaying the first user interface comprises displaying, within the first user interface, workout interval information corresponding to the plurality of intervals of the first workout, including: first information identifying the first respective interval type and the first respective interval duration; and second information identifying the second respective interval type and the second respective interval duration. Enabling users to share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface, and allowing users to view information about shared workouts via one or more user inputs in the messaging user interface, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, displaying the first user interface (e.g., 690) corresponding to the first workout comprises displaying a remote add workout object (e.g., 690b) within the first user interface. While displaying the first user interface including the remote add workout object, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, a selection input (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more mechanical inputs (e.g., one or more presses of a button and/or rotations of a rotatable input mechanism), and/or one or more other inputs) corresponding to selection of the remote add workout object, and in response to receiving the selection input corresponding to selection of the remote add workout object, the computer system causes the first workout to be added to a first remote device separate from the computer system (e.g., a wearable device (e.g., a watch and/or other wearable device)) (e.g., a first remote device that is associated with and/or corresponds to the computer system (e.g., a first remote device that is associated with the same user and/or a first remote device that is logged into the same user account as the computer system)) (in some embodiments, adding the first workout to the first remote device causes a representation of the first workout to be displayed within a workout user interface that is displayed on, displayable on, and/or accessible on the first remote device). Displaying a remote add workout object that allows a user to save the first workout to a remote device enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


Note that details of the processes described above with respect to method 700 (e.g., FIG. 7A) are also applicable in an analogous manner to the methods described below. For example, method 750 optionally includes one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 700. For example, in some embodiments, the computer system recited in method 700 receives the first custom workout shared by the computer system in method 750. For brevity, these details are not repeated below.



FIG. 7B is a flow diagram illustrating a method for sharing workout content using a computer system in accordance with some embodiments. Method 750 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, 600, and/or 650) that is in communication with one or more display generation components (e.g., 602 and/or 652) (e.g., a display, a touch-sensitive display, a monitor, a visual output device, a 3D display, a display having at least a portion that is transparent or translucent on which images can be projected (e.g., a see-through display), a projector, a heads-up display, and/or a display controller) and one or more input devices (e.g., 602 and/or 652) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display); a mouse; a keyboard; a remote control; a visual input device (e.g., one or more cameras (e.g., an infrared camera, a depth camera, a visible light camera, and/or a gaze tracking camera)); an audio input device; a biometric sensor (e.g., a fingerprint sensor, a face identification sensor, a gaze tracking sensor, and/or an iris identification sensor) and/or one or more mechanical input devices (e.g., a depressible input mechanism; a button; a rotatable input mechanism; a crown; and/or a dial)). Some operations in method 750 are, optionally, combined, the orders of some operations are, optionally, changed, and some operations are, optionally, omitted.


In some embodiments, the electronic device (e.g., 600 and/or 650) is a computer system. The computer system is optionally in communication (e.g., wired communication, wireless communication) with a display generation component and with one or more input devices. The display generation component is configured to provide visual output, such as display via a CRT display, display via an LED display, or display via image projection. In some embodiments, the display generation component is integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the display generation component is separate from the computer system. The one or more input devices are configured to receive input, such as a touch-sensitive surface receiving user input. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are separate from the computer system. Thus, the computer system can transmit, via a wired or wireless connection, data (e.g., image data or video data) to an integrated or external display generation component to visually produce the content (e.g., using a display device) and can receive, a wired or wireless connection, input from the one or more input devices.


As described below, method 750 provides an intuitive way for sharing workout content. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user for sharing workout content, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, enabling a user to share workout content faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.


The computer system (e.g., 600 and/or 650) receives (752), via the one or more input devices, a first set of user inputs (e.g., FIGS. 6A-6P) (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, and/or one or more gestures) corresponding to a user request to generate a first custom workout (e.g., a workout that includes a user-specified number of segments (e.g., a plurality of segments and/or one or more segments); a workout that includes, for at least some segments of the user-specified number of segments, a user-specified workout type (e.g., a user-specified workout modality (e.g., swim, run, cycle, HIIT, strength, and/or yoga), a user-specified work segment, and/or a user-specified rest segment); and/or a workout that includes, for at least some segments of the user-specified number of segments, a user-specified goal (e.g., a time goal (e.g., a user-specified duration of time), a calorie goal (e.g., a user-specified number of calories), and/or a distance goal (e.g., a user-specified distance)).


The computer system receives (754), via the one or more input devices, a second set of user inputs (e.g., FIGS. 6P-6U) (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, and/or one or more gestures)) corresponding to a user request to share the first custom workout into a first asynchronous messaging session (e.g., an asynchronous messaging session that includes one or more messages transmitted between a user of the computer system and one or more other participants (e.g., one or more other participants using one or more external computer systems separate from and/or different from the computer system) including a first participant).


In response to receiving the second set of user inputs, the computer system displays (756), via the one or more display generation components, a messaging user interface (e.g., 623) corresponding to the first asynchronous messaging session (in some embodiments, the messaging user interface also includes representations of a plurality of messages transmitted into the asynchronous messaging session by the user of the computer system and/or the one or more other participants in the asynchronous messaging session), including: displaying (758), within the messaging user interface, a first object (e.g., 623b) corresponding to the first custom workout and that is selectable (e.g., on the computer system and/or by a user of the computer system; and/or on one or more external computer systems corresponding to the one or more other participants of the first asynchronous messaging session) to display a first user interface (e.g., 666) corresponding to (e.g., representative of) the first custom workout. Enabling users to create custom workouts, and share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the first object is selectable to initiate a process for initiating a workout session corresponding to the first custom workout (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes initiating recording of one or more physical activity metrics (e.g., heartrate, workout time elapsed, distance traversed, and/or calories burned) for the workout session (e.g., via one or more sensors in communication with the computer system)) (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes recording one or more physical activity metrics at a greater frequency than prior to initiation of the workout session). In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 666) includes a first option (e.g., 668b) that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first custom workout. In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 1477) includes one or more workout metrics corresponding to the first custom workout and/or one or more workout metrics corresponding to the workout session (e.g., one or more workout metrics recorded during the workout session and/or one or more workout metrics indicative of a level of physical activity during the workout session (e.g., heart rate, calories burned, distance traveled, and/or power output (e.g., running power and/or cycling power)).


In some embodiments, while displaying the first object (e.g., 623b) within the messaging user interface, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, one or more user inputs corresponding to selection of the first object. In response to receiving the one or more user inputs corresponding to selection of the first object, the computer system displays a second object (e.g., 668b) that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first custom workout. In some embodiments, while displaying the second object, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, one or more user inputs corresponding to selection of the second object. In response to receiving the one or more user inputs corresponding to selection of the second object, the computer system: initiates a workout session corresponding to the first custom workout (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes initiating recording of one or more physical activity metrics (e.g., heartrate, workout time elapsed, distance traversed, and/or calories burned) for the workout session (e.g., via one or more sensors in communication with the computer system)) (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes recording one or more physical activity metrics at a greater frequency than prior to initiation of the workout session); and/or displays a workout metrics user interface (e.g., 1477) that includes one or more workout metrics corresponding to the workout session (and, in some embodiments, corresponds to the first custom workout) (e.g., a workout metrics user interface that includes one or more workout metrics that are recorded and/or measured during the workout session and/or that are indicative of a level of physical activity of the user during the workout session).


In some embodiments, while displaying the first object (e.g., 623b) within the messaging user interface, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, one or more user inputs corresponding to selection of the first object. In response to receiving the one or more user inputs corresponding to selection of the first object, the computer system: initiates a workout session corresponding to the first custom workout (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes initiating recording of one or more physical activity metrics (e.g., heartrate, workout time elapsed, distance traversed, and/or calories burned) for the workout session (e.g., via one or more sensors in communication with the computer system)) (in some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes recording one or more physical activity metrics at a greater frequency than prior to initiation of the workout session); and/or displays a workout metrics user interface (e.g., 1477) that includes one or more workout metrics corresponding to the workout session (and, in some embodiments, corresponds to the first custom workout) (e.g., a workout metrics user interface that includes one or more workout metrics that are recorded and/or measured during the workout session and/or that are indicative of a level of physical activity of the user during the workout session).


In some embodiments, the first custom workout comprises a plurality of intervals (e.g., FIG. 6P), including: a first interval having a first interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up); and a second interval having a second interval type (e.g., work, recover, cool down, and/or warm up) different from the first interval type; and the first set of user inputs includes: one or more user inputs (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, and/or one or more gestures) corresponding to a user request to add the first interval having the first interval type to the first custom workout; and one or more user inputs (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, and/or one or more gestures) corresponding to a user request to add the second interval having the second interval type to the first custom workout. Enabling users to create custom workouts, and share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the first interval has a first time-based duration (e.g., 1408f) (e.g., during the custom workout, the first interval ends, and a next interval begins, after a user-defined and/or predefined duration of time). Enabling users to create custom workouts having intervals with custom time-based durations enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the first interval has a first distance-based duration (e.g., 1408c) (e.g., during the custom workout, the first interval ends, and a next interval begins, after a user traverses and/or travels a user-defined and/or predefined distance). Enabling users to create custom workouts having intervals with custom distance-based durations enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the first interval has a first calorie-based duration (e.g., 1442c) (e.g., during the custom workout, the first interval ends, and a next interval begins, after a user burns and/or expends a user-defined and/or predefined number of calories). Enabling users to create custom workouts having intervals with custom calorie-based durations enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the second interval has a second time-based duration (e.g., 1408b) (e.g., during the custom workout, the second interval ends, and a next interval begins, after a user-defined and/or predefined duration of time) (e.g., a second time-based duration different from the first time-based duration). Enabling users to create custom workouts having intervals with custom time-based durations enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently


In some embodiments, the second interval has a second distance-based duration (e.g., 1406c) (e.g., during the custom workout, the second interval ends, and a next interval begins, after a user traverses and/or travels a user-defined and/or predefined distance) (e.g., a second distance-based duration different from the first distance-based duration). Enabling users to create custom workouts having intervals with custom distance-based durations enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the second interval has a second calorie-based duration (e.g., 1442c) (e.g., during the custom workout, the second interval ends, and a next interval begins, after a user burns and/or expends a user-defined and/or predefined number of calories) (e.g., a second calorie-based duration different from the first calorie-based duration). Enabling users to create custom workouts having intervals with custom calorie-based durations enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the computer system displays, via the one or more display generation components, a first user interface (e.g., 1404), including concurrently displaying: a start workout object (e.g., 1406d); and a share workout object (e.g., 1420g); while displaying the first user interface, receiving, via the one or more input devices, a selection input (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, and/or one or more gestures)); and in response to receiving the selection input: in accordance with a determination that the selection input corresponds to the share workout object (e.g., 1420g) (e.g., the selection input is indicative of user selection of the share workout object): the computer system displays, via the one or more display generation components, a workout sharing user interface (e.g., 620) that includes one or more options (e.g., 622a-622d) for sharing the first custom workout to one or more remote users (e.g., one or more remote users separate from and/or different from the user of the computer system); and in accordance with a determination that the selection input corresponds to the start workout object (e.g., 1406d) (e.g., the selection input is indicative of user selection of the start workout object): the computer system initiates a workout session corresponding to the first custom workout, including initiating recording (e.g., tracking and/or measuring) of one or more physical activity metrics for the workout session corresponding to the first custom workout (e.g., one or more physical activity metrics indicative of a physical activity level of the user during the workout session (e.g., heart rate, calories burned, steps taken, and/or distance traversed)); and displaying a first workout session user interface (e.g., 1476) indicative of an active workout session (e.g., indicative of a currently active and/or in-progress workout session) (in some embodiments, the first workout session user interface displays one or more workout performance metrics that are indicative of a physical activity level of the user during the current workout session). Providing an option to share a custom workout, and an option to start the custom workout, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the computer system displays, via the one or more display generation components, a first respective user interface (e.g., 1404), including concurrently displaying: a delete workout object (e.g., 1420h); and a share workout object (e.g., 1420g); while displaying the first user interface, receiving, via the one or more input devices, a first selection input (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, and/or one or more gestures)). In response to receiving the first selection input: in accordance with a determination that the first selection input corresponds to the share workout object (e.g., 1420g) (e.g., the selection input is indicative of user selection of the share workout object): the computer system displays, via the one or more display generation components, a workout sharing user interface (e.g., 620) that includes one or more options for sharing the first custom workout to one or more remote users (e.g., one or more remote users separate from and/or different from the user of the computer system); and in accordance with a determination that the first selection input corresponds to the delete workout object (e.g., 1420h) (e.g., the selection input is indicative of user selection of the delete workout object): the computer system initiates a process for deleting (e.g., removing) the first custom workout from the computer system (in some embodiments, deleting the first custom workout from the computer system; in some embodiments, displaying a selectable object that is selectable to delete the first custom workout from the computer system). Providing an option to share a custom workout, and an option to delete the custom workout, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the first asynchronous messaging session includes a plurality of external participants different from a user of the computer system (e.g., a plurality of external participants that have transmitted messages into the asynchronous messaging session and/or have received messages transmitted into the asynchronous messaging session). Enabling users to share custom workouts with one another via a messaging user interface enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, in response to receiving the second set of user inputs, the computer system causes the first object (e.g., 623b) corresponding to the first custom workout to be displayed on one or more external devices (e.g., 650) separate from the computer system that are associated with participants in the first asynchronous messaging session (e.g., within respective messaging user interfaces corresponding to the first asynchronous messaging session that are displayed on the one or more external devices).

For example, in some embodiments, the computer system recited in method 700 receives the first custom workout shared by the computer system in method 750. For brevity, these details are not repeated below.

FIG. 8A illustrates electronic device 600, which is a smart watch with touch-sensitive display 602, rotatable and depressible input mechanism 604a, and button 604b. In FIG. 8A, electronic device 600 displays workout selection user interface 800. Workout selection user interface 800 includes a plurality of workout representations 802a-802d corresponding to different workouts. In some embodiments, each workout representation is selectable to initiate a workout session for the corresponding workout. Workout selection user interface 800 also includes options 804a-804d that correspond to the plurality of workout representations 802a-802d, and are selectable to view more information about a particular workout and/or to modify one or more aspects of the selected workout. In FIG. 8A, workout representation 802a is representative of a first workout that has been shared to electronic device 600 (e.g., by a remote electronic device and/or a remote entity). In FIG. 8A, workout representation 802a is part of a workout schedule that is shared to electronic device 600 by an entity, Entity 1. Workout representation 802a corresponds to a workout (e.g., a speed run workout) that is scheduled for the current day according to the workout schedule shared by Entity 1. At FIG. 8A, electronic device 600 detects user input 806a corresponding to selection of workout representation 802a, and user input 806b corresponding to selection of option 804a.


At FIG. 8B, in response to user input 806a, electronic device 600 initiates a workout session corresponding to workout representation 802a (e.g., a speed run workout), and displays in-workout user interface 805 indicative of an active workout session. In-workout user interface 805 includes workout metrics 642a corresponding to (e.g., collected during and/or measured during) the workout session.

At FIG. 8H, in response to user input 827, electronic device 600 displays metrics preview user interface 838. In some embodiments, during a workout session, electronic device 600 displays an in-workout user interface that includes one or more workout metrics (e.g., physical activity metrics) indicative of the user's physical activity level during the workout. In some embodiments, users are able to modify workout metrics that are accessible (e.g., that the user can view) during their workouts. In FIG. 8H, metrics preview user interface 838 displays preview 840a which provides the user with an animation that displays for the user one or more metrics user interfaces that are currently set to be displayed (e.g., currently enabled and/or currently accessible) during the speed run workout.


In FIG. 8H, preview 840a displays first workout metrics user interface 842a, which presents a first set of workout metrics. In FIG. 8I, the animation of preview 840a progresses (e.g., without user input) to show second workout metrics user interface 842b, which presents a second set of workout metrics. By displaying the animation of preview 840a, a user is able to see which workout metrics are currently enabled for the speed run workout, and can then decide if he or she would like to modify those metrics. In the depicted embodiment, preview 840a is also scrollable by a user so that the user can manually view the workout metrics user interfaces that are currently enabled. In FIG. 8I, electronic device 600 detects user input 839, which is a counter-clockwise rotation of rotatable input mechanism 604a. At FIG. 8J, in response to user input 839, electronic device 600 ceases display of workout metrics user interface 842b and displays workout metrics user interface 842a.


Metrics preview user interface 838 also includes option 840b that is selectable to modify workout metrics that are accessible during a workout session. At FIG. 8J, electronic device 600 detects user input 844 (e.g., a tap input) corresponding to selection of option 840b.


At FIG. 8K, electronic device 600 displays metrics setting user interface 845. Metrics setting user interface 845 corresponds to the speed run workout (or, in some embodiments, corresponds generally to running workouts and/or an outdoor run modality), and displays a set of workout metrics user interfaces 842a-842f that are available for display during the speed run workout. Each workout metrics user interface displays a different set of workout metrics. For example, workout metrics user interface 842a displays active calorie information, total calorie information, distance traversed during the workout, and heartrate information. Workout metrics user interface 842c displays heart rate zone information indication the user's current heart rate zone during a workout session. Workout metrics user interface 842d displays lap information. Workout metrics user interface 842e displays elevation information. Workout metrics user interface 842f displays run power information. Workout metrics user interface 842b displays a move goal representation (e.g., the outmost ring of the three concentric rings), which is an indication of the user's progress towards a daily calories goal for a current calendar day, and includes physical activity information for the user that precedes the workout session. Workout metrics user interface 842b also displays an exercise goal representation (e.g., a middle ring of the three concentric rings), which is an indication of the user's progress towards a daily exercise minutes goal for the current calendar day (e.g., a target number of minutes of exercise for each calendar day), and includes physical activity information for the user that precedes the workout session. Workout metrics user interface 842b also displays a stand goal representation (e.g., an innermost ring of the three concentric rings), which is an indication of the user's progress towards a daily stand goal for the current calendar day (e.g., a target number of hours each day during which the user stood for a threshold number of minutes), which also includes physical activity information for the user that precedes the workout session.


Workout metrics user interfaces 842b-842f include corresponding toggles 846b-846f that are selectable to selectively enable or disable the corresponding workout metrics user interface. If a workout metrics user interface is enabled, a user is able to view the workout metrics user interface during the speed run workout session, and if a workout metrics user interface is disabled, a user is not able to view the workout metrics user interface during speed run workout session. In FIG. 8K, workout metrics user interface 842a does not have a corresponding toggle. This is because, in the depicted embodiment, workout metrics user interface 842a represents a default workout metrics user interface for the speed run workout (and/or for running workouts generally) and is therefore displayed by default and cannot be disabled. In the depicted embodiment, metrics setting user interface 845 corresponds to the speed run workout (and/or running workouts generally), and displays workout metrics user interfaces that are available for the speed run workout. Different workouts and/or different work modality types will, in various embodiments, have different metrics setting user interfaces that display at least some different workout metrics user interfaces from what is presented in metrics setting user interface 845. In some embodiments, enabled workout metrics user interfaces can also be reordered to change the order in which they are displayed during a speed run workout session. For example, enabled workout metrics user interfaces can be ordered using a touch and drag user input to move a workout metrics user interface to a different position within user interface 845.



FIG. 9 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for accessing workout content using a computer system in accordance with some embodiments. Method 900 is performed at a computer system (e.g., 100, 300, 500, 600, and/or 650) (e.g., a smart phone, a smart watch, a tablet, a laptop, a desktop, a wearable device, and/or head-mounted device) that is in communication with one or more display generation components (e.g., a display, a touch-sensitive display, a monitor, a visual output device, a 3D display, a display having at least a portion that is transparent or translucent on which images can be projected (e.g., a see-through display), a projector, a heads-up display, and/or a display controller) and one or more input devices (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display); a mouse; a keyboard; a remote control; a visual input device (e.g., one or more cameras (e.g., an infrared camera, a depth camera, a visible light camera, and/or a gaze tracking camera)); an audio input device; a biometric sensor (e.g., a fingerprint sensor, a face identification sensor, a gaze tracking sensor, and/or an iris identification sensor) and/or one or more mechanical input devices (e.g., a depressible input mechanism; a button; a rotatable input mechanism; a crown; and/or a dial)). Some operations in method 900 are, optionally, combined, the orders of some operations are, optionally, changed, and some operations are, optionally, omitted.


In some embodiments, the electronic device (e.g., 600) is a computer system. The computer system is optionally in communication (e.g., wired communication, wireless communication) with a display generation component and with one or more input devices. The display generation component is configured to provide visual output, such as display via a CRT display, display via an LED display, or display via image projection. In some embodiments, the display generation component is integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the display generation component is separate from the computer system. The one or more input devices are configured to receive input, such as a touch-sensitive surface receiving user input. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are separate from the computer system. Thus, the computer system can transmit, via a wired or wireless connection, data (e.g., image data or video data) to an integrated or external display generation component to visually produce the content (e.g., using a display device) and can receive, a wired or wireless connection, input from the one or more input devices.


As described below, method 900 provides an intuitive way for accessing workout content. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user for accessing workout content, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, enabling a user to access workout content faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.


The computer system (e.g., 600) receives (902), from a first entity (e.g., a first entity separate from and/or different from a user of the computer system), a first workout schedule (e.g., FIGS. 8D-8E) that includes a plurality of scheduled workouts.


Subsequent to receiving the first workout schedule, the computer system displays (904), via the one or more display generation components, a first user interface (e.g., 814) corresponding to the first entity (e.g., that corresponds uniquely to the first entity and/or is associated with the first entity) that includes: a first object (e.g., 816a and/or 816b) corresponding to a first workout (e.g., a first workout that corresponds to a first workout type (e.g., workout modality (e.g., cycling, running, swimming, HIIT, yoga, strength and/or core) and/or a first workout duration) that is scheduled for a current date (e.g., the current date when the first user interface is being displayed, a current day, and/or a workout scheduled to be completed today) according to the first workout schedule; and one or more objects corresponding to one or more future scheduled workouts (e.g., 816c-816e) in the first workout schedule, including a second object corresponding to a second workout (e.g., a second workout different from the first workout, a second workout that corresponds to a second workout type (e.g., workout modality (e.g., cycling, running, swimming, HIIT, yoga, strength and/or core) and/or a second workout duration) that is scheduled for a first future date (e.g., a first date in the future and/or a first date that is later than the current date) according to the first workout schedule; and while displaying the first user interface (e.g., 814) that includes the first object and the second object, receiving (906), via the one or more input devices, a first set of user inputs (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, and/or one or more gestures)).


In response to receiving the first set of user inputs: in accordance with a determination that the first set of user inputs correspond to selection of the first object (e.g., 816a and/or 816b) (e.g., and do not correspond to selection of the second object), the computer system initiates (908) a process for initiating a workout session corresponding to the first workout. Enabling users to receive and view information pertaining to a workout schedule shared by a third party enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, initiating the process for initiating a workout session corresponding to the first workout includes displaying a selectable object (e.g., 822c and/or 826c) that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the first workout. In some embodiments, initiating the process for initiating the workout session corresponding to the first workout includes initiating a workout session corresponding to the first workout. In some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes initiating recording of one or more physical activity metrics (e.g., heartrate, workout time elapsed, distance traversed, and/or calories burned) for the workout session (e.g., via one or more sensors in communication with the computer system). In some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes recording one or more physical activity metrics at a greater frequency than prior to initiation of the workout session.


In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first set of user inputs: in accordance with a determination that the first set of user inputs correspond to selection of the second object (e.g., 816c, 816d, and/or 816e) (e.g., and do not correspond to selection of the first object), the computer system initiates a process for initiating a workout session corresponding to the second workout. In some embodiments, initiating the process for initiating a workout session corresponding to the second workout includes displaying a second selectable object (e.g., 822c) that is selectable to initiate a workout session corresponding to the second workout. In some embodiments, initiating the process for initiating the workout session corresponding to the second workout includes initiating a workout session corresponding to the second workout. In some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes initiating recording of one or more physical activity metrics (e.g., heartrate, workout time elapsed, distance traversed, and/or calories burned) for the workout session (e.g., via one or more sensors in communication with the computer system). In some embodiments, initiating the workout session includes recording one or more physical activity metrics at a greater frequency than prior to initiation of the workout session.


In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 814) corresponding to the first entity further includes: one or more objects correspond to one or more past workouts (e.g., 816h-816k) in the first workout scheduling, including a third option corresponding to a third workout (e.g., a third workout different from the first workout and/or the second workout, a third workout that corresponds to a third workout type (e.g., workout modality (e.g., cycling, running, swimming, HIIT, yoga, strength and/or core) and/or a third workout duration) that was scheduled for a first past date (e.g., a first date in the past and/or a first date that is earlier than the current date) according to the first workout schedule. Enabling users to receive and view information pertaining to a workout schedule shared by a third party, including past and future workouts, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first set of user inputs: in accordance with a determination that the first set of user inputs correspond to selection of the first object (e.g., 816a and/or 816b), the computer system displays, via the one or more display generation components, a start workout object (e.g., 826c); while displaying the start workout object, the computer system receives, via the one or more input devices, a selection input (e.g., one or more touch inputs, one or more non-touch inputs, one or more mechanical inputs, and/or one or more gesture inputs) corresponding to selection of the start workout object; and in response to receiving the selection input corresponding to selection of the start workout object: the computer system initiates a workout session corresponding to the first workout, including initiating recording (e.g., tracking and/or measuring) of one or more physical activity metrics for the workout session corresponding to the first workout (e.g., one or more physical activity metrics indicative of a physical activity level of the user during the workout session (e.g., heart rate, calories burned, steps taken, and/or distance traversed)); and the computer system displays a first workout session user interface indicative of an active workout session (e.g., indicative of a currently active and/or in-progress workout session) (in some embodiments, the first workout session user interface displays one or more workout performance metrics that are indicative of a physical activity level of the user during the current workout session). Enabling users to receive and view information pertaining to a workout schedule shared by a third party, and to initiate workout sessions from the workout schedule, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first set of user inputs: in accordance with a determination that the first set of user inputs correspond to selection of the first object (e.g., 816a and/or 816b), the computer system displays, concurrently with the start workout object, (e.g., 826c) a workout views object (e.g., 826b) that is selectable to initiate a process for modifying (e.g., customizing and/or editing) one or more workout metrics user interfaces that are displayed (e.g., are displayable and/or accessible) during a workout session corresponding to the first workout. Enabling users to receive and view information pertaining to a workout schedule shared by a third party, and to modify one or more workout metrics user interfaces, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first set of user inputs: in accordance with a determination that the first set of user inputs correspond to selection of the second object (e.g., 816c, 816d, and/or 816e), the computer system displays, concurrently with the second start workout object (e.g., 822c), a second add workout object (e.g., 822d) that is selectable to initiate a process for adding the second workout to a second set of workouts (e.g., the first set of workouts (e.g., a second set of workouts that is accessible in a fitness application installed on the computer system, a second set of workouts that does not include the second workout, and/or a second set of workouts that is displayed within a user interface (e.g., a user interface in a fitness application installed on the computer system)). Enabling users to receive and view information pertaining to a workout schedule shared by a third party, and to save workouts from the workout schedule, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, the first user interface (e.g., 814) corresponding to the first entity further comprises a stop sync option (e.g., 816f) that is selectable to stop receiving workout schedule information from the first entity (e.g., stop downloading workout schedule information from the first entity onto the computer system). Enabling users to receive and view information pertaining to a workout schedule shared by a third party, and to selectively stop receiving workout schedule information from the third party, enhances the operability of the system and makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by helping the user to provide proper inputs and reducing errors) which, additionally, reduces power usage and improves battery life of the device by enabling the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.


In some embodiments, prior to displaying the first user interface (e.g., 814) corresponding to the first entity, the computer system displays, via the one or more display generation components, a workout selection user interface (e.g. 800) that includes a first plurality of workout platters (e.g., 802a-802d) corresponding to a first plurality of different workouts, including: a first workout platter (e.g., 802b-802d) (e.g., user interface object and/or affordance) associated with a fourth workout different from the first workout and the second workout (in some embodiments, a fourth workout of a fourth workout type (e.g., a fourth workout modality and/or a fourth workout goal type)) and that is not associated with the first entity (e.g., was not received from the first entity and/or is not included in the first workout schedule received from the first entity), a second workout platter (e.g., 802a-802d) (e.g., user interface object and/or affordance) associated with a fifth workout different from the first workout the second workout, and fourth workout (in some embodiments, a fifth workout of a fifth workout type (e.g., a fifth workout modality and/or a fifth workout goal type)) and that is not associated with the first entity (e.g., was not received from the first entity and/or is not included in the first workout schedule received from the first entity), and a third workout platter (e.g., 802a) that corresponds to (e.g., is associated with) the first entity. In some embodiments, selection of the third workout platter initiates a workout session corresponding to the first workout (e.g., initiates a workout session corresponding to a workout that is scheduled for the current date according to the first workout schedule from the first entity). In some embodiments, selection of the third workout platter results in display of the first user interface. In some embodiments, selection of a first region of the third workout platter initiates a workout session corresponding to the first workout (e.g., initiates a workout session corresponding to a workout that is scheduled for the current date according to the first workout schedule from the first entity) and selection of a second region of the third workout platter results in display of the first user interface.

Although the disclosure and examples have been fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, it is to be noted that various changes and modifications will become apparent to those skilled in the art. Such changes and modifications are to be understood as being included within the scope of the disclosure and examples as defined by the claims.


As described above, one aspect of the present technology is the gathering and use of data available from various sources to improve the delivery to users of workout content. The present disclosure contemplates that in some instances, this gathered data may include personal information data that uniquely identifies or can be used to contact or locate a specific person. Such personal information data can include demographic data, location-based data, telephone numbers, email addresses, social network IDs, home addresses, data or records relating to a user's health or level of fitness (e.g., vital signs measurements, medication information, exercise information), date of birth, or any other identifying or personal information.


The present disclosure recognizes that the use of such personal information data, in the present technology, can be used to the benefit of users. For example, the personal information data can be used to deliver targeted workout content that is of greater interest to the user. Accordingly, use of such personal information data enables users to have calculated control of the delivered workout content. Further, other uses for personal information data that benefit the user are also contemplated by the present disclosure. For instance, health and fitness data may be used to provide insights into a user's general wellness, or may be used as positive feedback to individuals using technology to pursue wellness goals.


The present disclosure contemplates that the entities responsible for the collection, analysis, disclosure, transfer, storage, or other use of such personal information data will comply with well-established privacy policies and/or privacy practices. In particular, such entities should implement and consistently use privacy policies and practices that are generally recognized as meeting or exceeding industry or governmental requirements for maintaining personal information data private and secure. Such policies should be easily accessible by users, and should be updated as the collection and/or use of data changes. Personal information from users should be collected for legitimate and reasonable uses of the entity and not shared or sold outside of those legitimate uses. Further, such collection/sharing should occur after receiving the informed consent of the users. Additionally, such entities should consider taking any needed steps for safeguarding and securing access to such personal information data and ensuring that others with access to the personal information data adhere to their privacy policies and procedures. Further, such entities can subject themselves to evaluation by third parties to certify their adherence to widely accepted privacy policies and practices. In addition, policies and practices should be adapted for the particular types of personal information data being collected and/or accessed and adapted to applicable laws and standards, including jurisdiction-specific considerations. For instance, in the US, collection of or access to certain health data may be governed by federal and/or state laws, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA); whereas health data in other countries may be subject to other regulations and policies and should be handled accordingly. Hence different privacy practices should be maintained for different personal data types in each country.


Despite the foregoing, the present disclosure also contemplates embodiments in which users selectively block the use of, or access to, personal information data. That is, the present disclosure contemplates that hardware and/or software elements can be provided to prevent or block access to such personal information data. For example, in the case of workout content delivery services, the present technology can be configured to allow users to select to “opt in” or “opt out” of participation in the collection of personal information data during registration for services or anytime thereafter. In another example, users can select not to provide workout-associated data for targeted content delivery services. In yet another example, users can select to limit the length of time workout-associated data is maintained or entirely prohibit the development of a baseline workout profile. In addition to providing “opt in” and “opt out” options, the present disclosure contemplates providing notifications relating to the access or use of personal information. For instance, a user may be notified upon downloading an app that their personal information data will be accessed and then reminded again just before personal information data is accessed by the app.


Moreover, it is the intent of the present disclosure that personal information data should be managed and handled in a way to minimize risks of unintentional or unauthorized access or use. Risk can be minimized by limiting the collection of data and deleting data once it is no longer needed. In addition, and when applicable, including in certain health related applications, data de-identification can be used to protect a user's privacy. De-identification may be facilitated, when appropriate, by removing specific identifiers (e.g., date of birth, etc.), controlling the amount or specificity of data stored (e.g., collecting location data a city level rather than at an address level), controlling how data is stored (e.g., aggregating data across users), and/or other methods.


Therefore, although the present disclosure broadly covers use of personal information data to implement one or more various disclosed embodiments, the present disclosure also contemplates that the various embodiments can also be implemented without the need for accessing such personal information data. That is, the various embodiments of the present technology are not rendered inoperable due to the lack of all or a portion of such personal information data. For example, workout content can be selected and delivered to users by inferring preferences based on non-personal information data or a bare minimum amount of personal information, such as the content being requested by the device associated with a user, other non-personal information available to the workout content delivery services, or publicly available information.
