The present disclosure relates generally to computer user interfaces, and more specifically to techniques for managing transactions.
The use of electronic devices for participating in transactions has increased significantly in recent years. Exemplary techniques for participating in transactions include making an online purchase of a good or service on a website. Participating in transactions using such traditional techniques often requires the user to manually enter information, such as account information and personal information, using insecure and slow methods.
Some techniques for managing transactions 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, even at a reduced-size electronic device, such as a smartwatch. Existing techniques require more time than necessary, wasting user time and device energy. This latter consideration is particularly important in battery-operated devices. For another example, some existing techniques require the user to manually enter extensive information at the device to be used for the transaction, such as on a smartwatch. This can be inefficient when other devices with enhanced input mechanism, such as a smart phone or laptop, are available.
Accordingly, the present techniques provide electronic devices with faster, more efficient, and more secure methods and interfaces for managing transactions. Such methods and interfaces optionally complement or replace other methods for managing transactions. 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. Further, such methods and interfaces reduce the amount of input required at electronic devices, such as smartwatches.

For a better understanding of the various described embodiments, reference should be made to the Description of Embodiments below, in conjunction with the following drawings in which like reference numerals refer to corresponding parts throughout the figures.
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 managing transactions. In accordance with some embodiments, the user is notified if there is an error with transaction parameters and the device determines whether potentially compatible transaction parameters are available on the electronic device. In accordance with some embodiments, the user is notified if there is an error with transaction parameters and the user is prompted to use another device to enter new transaction information. Such techniques can reduce the cognitive burden on a user participates in transactions, thereby enhancing productivity. Further, such techniques can reduce processor and battery power otherwise wasted on redundant user inputs.
Below,
Although the following description uses terms “first,” “second,” etc. to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by the terms. These terms are only 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. 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, Calif. 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 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.
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.

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. 11/228,758, “Virtual Input Device Placement On A Touch Screen User Interface,” filed Sep. 16, 2005; (7) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/228,700, “Operation Of A Computer With A Touch Screen Interface,” filed Sep. 16, 2005; (8) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/228,737, “Activating Virtual Keys Of A Touch-Screen Virtual Keyboard,” filed Sep. 16, 2005; and (9) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/367,749, “Multi-Functional Hand-Held Device,” filed Mar. 3, 2006. All of these applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.
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 (not shown) 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.
Device 100 also includes power system 162 for powering the various components. Power system 162 optionally includes a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., battery, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, a power failure detection circuit, a power converter or inverter, a power status indicator (e.g., a light-emitting diode (LED)) and any other components associated with the generation, management and distribution of power in portable devices.

Furthermore, in some embodiments, memory 102 (
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.

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, 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,
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.
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 (not shown) 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 (187) 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 definition 187 includes 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.
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.
Each of the above-identified elements in

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
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.
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.
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 800 and 1000 (
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 (
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
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.
In some embodiments, a portion of a gesture is identified for purposes of determining a characteristic intensity. For example, a touch-sensitive surface optionally receives a continuous swipe contact transitioning from a start location and reaching an end location, at which point the intensity of the contact increases. In this example, the characteristic intensity of the contact at the end location is, optionally, based on only a portion of the continuous swipe contact, and not the entire swipe contact (e.g., only the portion of the swipe contact at the end location). In some embodiments, a smoothing algorithm is, optionally, applied to the intensities of the swipe contact prior to determining the characteristic intensity of the contact. For example, the smoothing algorithm optionally includes one or more of: an unweighted sliding-average smoothing algorithm, a triangular smoothing algorithm, a median filter smoothing algorithm, and/or an exponential smoothing algorithm. In some circumstances, these smoothing algorithms eliminate narrow spikes or dips in the intensities of the swipe contact for purposes of determining a characteristic intensity.
The intensity of a contact on the touch-sensitive surface is, optionally, characterized relative to one or more intensity thresholds, such as a contact-detection intensity threshold, a light press intensity threshold, a deep press intensity threshold, and/or one or more other intensity thresholds. In some embodiments, the light press intensity threshold corresponds to an intensity at which the device will perform operations typically associated with clicking a button of a physical mouse or a trackpad. In some embodiments, the deep press intensity threshold corresponds to an intensity at which the device will perform operations that are different from operations typically associated with clicking a button of a physical mouse or a trackpad. In some embodiments, when a contact is detected with a characteristic intensity below the light press intensity threshold (e.g., and above a nominal contact-detection intensity threshold below which the contact is no longer detected), the device will move a focus selector in accordance with movement of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface without performing an operation associated with the light press intensity threshold or the deep press intensity threshold. Generally, unless otherwise stated, these intensity thresholds are consistent between different sets of user interface figures.
An increase of characteristic intensity of the contact from an intensity below the light press intensity threshold to an intensity between the light press intensity threshold and the deep press intensity threshold is sometimes referred to as a “light press” input. An increase of characteristic intensity of the contact from an intensity below the deep press intensity threshold to an intensity above the deep press intensity threshold is sometimes referred to as a “deep press” input. An increase of characteristic intensity of the contact from an intensity below the contact-detection intensity threshold to an intensity between the contact-detection intensity threshold and the light press intensity threshold is sometimes referred to as detecting the contact on the touch-surface. A decrease of characteristic intensity of the contact from an intensity above the contact-detection intensity threshold to an intensity below the contact-detection intensity threshold is sometimes referred to as detecting liftoff of the contact from the touch-surface. In some embodiments, the contact-detection intensity threshold is zero. In some embodiments, the contact-detection intensity threshold is greater than zero.
In some embodiments described herein, one or more operations are performed in response to detecting a gesture that includes a respective press input or in response to detecting the respective press input performed with a respective contact (or a plurality of contacts), where the respective press input is detected based at least in part on detecting an increase in intensity of the contact (or plurality of contacts) above a press-input intensity threshold. In some embodiments, the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the increase in intensity of the respective contact above the press-input intensity threshold (e.g., a “down stroke” of the respective press input). In some embodiments, the press input includes an increase in intensity of the respective contact above the press-input intensity threshold and a subsequent decrease in intensity of the contact below the press-input intensity threshold, and the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the subsequent decrease in intensity of the respective contact below the press-input threshold (e.g., an “up stroke” of the respective press input).
In some embodiments, the display of representations 578A-578C includes an animation. For example, representation 578A is initially displayed in proximity of application icon 572B, as shown in
In some embodiments, the device employs intensity hysteresis to avoid accidental inputs sometimes termed “jitter,” where the device defines or selects a hysteresis intensity threshold with a predefined relationship to the press-input intensity threshold (e.g., the hysteresis intensity threshold is X intensity units lower than the press-input intensity threshold or the hysteresis intensity threshold is 75%, 90%, or some reasonable proportion of the press-input intensity threshold). Thus, in some embodiments, the press input includes an increase in intensity of the respective contact above the press-input intensity threshold and a subsequent decrease in intensity of the contact below the hysteresis intensity threshold that corresponds to the press-input intensity threshold, and the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the subsequent decrease in intensity of the respective contact below the hysteresis intensity threshold (e.g., an “up stroke” of the respective press input). Similarly, in some embodiments, the press input is detected only when the device detects an increase in intensity of the contact from an intensity at or below the hysteresis intensity threshold to an intensity at or above the press-input intensity threshold and, optionally, a subsequent decrease in intensity of the contact to an intensity at or below the hysteresis intensity, and the respective operation is performed in response to detecting the press input (e.g., the increase in intensity of the contact or the decrease in intensity of the contact, depending on the circumstances).
For ease of explanation, the descriptions of operations performed in response to a press input associated with a press-input intensity threshold or in response to a gesture including the press input are, optionally, triggered in response to detecting either: an increase in intensity of a contact above the press-input intensity threshold, an increase in intensity of a contact from an intensity below the hysteresis intensity threshold to an intensity above the press-input intensity threshold, a decrease in intensity of the contact below the press-input intensity threshold, and/or a decrease in intensity of the contact below the hysteresis intensity threshold corresponding to the press-input intensity threshold. Additionally, in examples where an operation is described as being performed in response to detecting a decrease in intensity of a contact below the press-input intensity threshold, the operation is, optionally, performed in response to detecting a decrease in intensity of the contact below a hysteresis intensity threshold corresponding to, and lower than, the press-input intensity threshold.
The electronic devices (e.g., devices 100, 300, and 500) are optionally configured to store payment account information associated with each of one or more payment accounts. Payment account information includes, for example, one or more of: a person's or company's name, a billing address, a login, a password, an account number, an expiration date, a security code, a telephone number, a bank associated with the payment account (e.g., an issuing bank), and a card network identifier. In some examples, payment account information includes include an image, such as a picture of a payment card (e.g., taken by the device and/or received at the device). In some examples, the electronic devices receive user input including at least some payment account information (e.g., receiving user-entered credit, debit, account, or gift card number and expiration date). In some examples, the electronic devices detect at least some payment account information from an image (e.g., of a payment card captured by a camera sensor of the device). In some examples, the electronic devices receive at least some payment account information from another device (e.g., another user device or a server). In some examples, the electronic device receives payment account information from a server associated with another service for which an account for a user or user device previously made a purchase or identified payment account data (e.g., an app for renting or selling audio and/or video files).
In some embodiments, a payment account is added to an electronic device (e.g., device 100, 300, and 500), such that payment account information is securely stored on the electronic device. In some examples, after a user initiates such process, the electronic device transmits information for the payment account to a transaction-coordination server, which then communicates with a server operated by a payment network for the account (e.g., a payment server) to ensure a validity of the information. The electronic device is optionally configured to receive a script from the server that allows the electronic device to program payment information for the account onto the secure element.
In some embodiments, communication among electronic devices 100, 300, and 500 facilitates transactions (e.g., generally or specific transactions). For example, a first electronic device (e.g., 100) can serve as a provisioning or managing device, and can send notifications of new or updated payment account data (e.g., information for a new account, updated information for an existing account, and/or an alert pertaining to an existing account) to a second electronic device (e.g., 500). In another example, a first electronic device (e.g., 100) can send data to a second election device, wherein the data reflects information about payment transactions facilitated at the first electronic device. The information optionally includes one or more of: a payment amount, an account used, a time of purchase, and whether a default account was changed. The second device (e.g., 500) optionally uses such information to update a default payment account (e.g., based on a learning algorithm or explicit user input).
Electronic devices (e.g., 100, 300, 500) are configured to communicate with each other over any of a variety of networks. For example, the devices communicate using a Bluetooth connection 608 (e.g., which includes a traditional Bluetooth connection or a Bluetooth Low Energy connection) or using a WiFi network 606. Communications among user devices are, optionally, conditioned to reduce the possibility of inappropriately sharing information across devices. For example, communications relating to payment information requires that the communicating devices be paired (e.g., be associated with each other via an explicit user interaction) or be associated with a same user account.
In some embodiments, an electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) is used to communicate with a point-of-sale (POS) payment terminal 600, which is optionally NFC-enabled. The communication optionally occurs using a variety of communication channels and/or technologies. In some examples, electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) communicates with payment terminal 600 using an NFC channel 610. In some examples, payment terminal 600 communicates with an electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) using a peer-to-peer NFC mode. Electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) is optionally configured transmit a signal to payment terminal 600 that includes payment information for a payment account (e.g., a default account or an account selected for the particular transaction).
In some embodiments, generation of and/or transmission of the signal is controlled by a secure element in the electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500). The secure element optionally requires a particular user input prior to releasing payment information. For example, the secure element optionally requires detection that the electronic device is being worn, detection of a button press, detection of entry of a passcode, detection of a touch, detection of one or more option selections (e.g., received while interacting with an application), detection of a fingerprint signature, detection of a voice or voice command, and or detection of a gesture or movement (e.g., rotation or acceleration). In some examples, if a communication channel (e.g., an NFC communication channel) with another device (e.g., payment terminal 600) is established within a defined time period from detection of the input, the secure element releases payment information to be transmitted to the other device (e.g., payment terminal 600). In some examples, the secure element is a hardware component that controls release of secure information. In some examples, the secure element is a software component that controls release of secure information.
In some embodiments, protocols related to transaction participation depend on, for example, device types. For example, a condition for generating and/or transmitting payment information can be different for a wearable device (e.g., device 500) and a phone (e.g., device 100). For example, a generation and/or transmission condition for a wearable device includes detecting that a button has been pressed (e.g., after a security verification), while a corresponding condition for a phone does not require button-depression and instead requires detection of particular interaction with an application. In some examples, a condition for transmitting and/or releasing payment information includes receiving particular input on each of multiple devices. For example, release of payment information optionally requires detection of a fingerprint and/or passcode at the device (e.g., device 100) and detection of a mechanical input (e.g., button press) on another device (e.g., device 500).
Payment terminal 600 optionally uses the payment information to generate a signal to transmit to a payment server 604 to determine whether the payment is authorized. Payment server 604 optionally includes any device or system configured to receive payment information associated with a payment account and to determine whether a proposed purchase is authorized. In some examples, payment server 604 includes a server of an issuing bank. Payment terminal 600 communicates with payment server 604 directly or indirectly via one or more other devices or systems (e.g., a server of an acquiring bank and/or a server of a card network).
Payment server 604 optionally uses at least some of the payment information to identify a user account from among a database of user accounts (e.g., 602). For example, each user account includes payment information. An account is, optionally, located by locating an account with particular payment information matching that from the POS communication. In some examples, a payment is denied when provided payment information is not consistent (e.g., an expiration date does not correspond to a credit, debit or gift card number) or when no account includes payment information matching that from the POS communication.
In some embodiments, data for the user account further identifies one or more restrictions (e.g., credit limits); current or previous balances; previous transaction dates, locations and/or amounts; account status (e.g., active or frozen), and/or authorization instructions. In some examples, the payment server (e.g., 604) uses such data to determine whether to authorize a payment. For example, a payment server denies a payment when a purchase amount added to a current balance would result in exceeding an account limit, when an account is frozen, when a previous transaction amount exceeds a threshold, or when a previous transaction count or frequency exceeds a threshold.
In some embodiments, payment server 604 responds to POS payment terminal 600 with an indication as to whether a proposed purchase is authorized or denied. In some examples, POS payment terminal 600 transmits a signal to the electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) to identify the result. For example, POS payment terminal 600 sends a receipt to the electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) when a purchase is authorized (e.g., via a transaction-coordination server that manages a transaction app on the user device). In some instances, POS payment terminal 600 presents an output (e.g., a visual or audio output) indicative of the result. Payment can be sent to a merchant as part of the authorization process or can be subsequently sent.
In some embodiments, the electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) participates in a transaction that is completed without involvement of POS payment terminal 600. For example, upon detecting that a mechanical input has been received, a secure element in the electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) releases payment information to allow an application on the electronic device to access the information (e.g., and to transmit the information to a server associated with the application).
In some embodiments, the electronic device (e.g., 100, 300, 500) is in a locked state or an unlocked state. In the locked state, the electronic device is powered on and operational but is prevented from performing a predefined set of operations in response to the user input. The predefined set of operations may include navigation between user interfaces, activation or deactivation of a predefined set of functions, and activation or deactivation of certain applications. The locked state may be used to prevent unintentional or unauthorized use of some functionality of the electronic device or activation or deactivation of some functions on the electronic device. In the unlocked state, the electronic device 100 is power 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 device is in the locked state, the device is said to be locked. In some embodiments, the device in the locked state may respond to a limited set of user inputs, including input that corresponds to an attempt to transition the device to the unlocked state or input that corresponds to powering the device off.
In some examples, a secure element is a hardware component (e.g., a secure microcontroller chip) configured to securely store data or an algorithm. In some examples, the secure element provides (or releases) payment information (e.g., an account number and/or a transaction-specific dynamic security code). In some examples, the secure element provides (or releases) the payment information in response to the device receiving authorization, such as a user authentication (e.g., fingerprint authentication; passcode authentication; detecting double-press of a hardware button when the device is in an unlocked state, and optionally, while the device has been continuously on a user's wrist since the device was unlocked by providing authentication credentials to the device, where the continuous presence of the device on the user's wrist is determined by periodically checking that the device is in contact with the user's skin). For example, the device detects a fingerprint at a fingerprint sensor (e.g., a fingerprint sensor integrated into a button) of the device. The device determines whether the fingerprint is consistent with a registered fingerprint. In accordance with a determination that the fingerprint is consistent with the registered fingerprint, the secure element provides (or releases) payment information. In accordance with a determination that the fingerprint is not consistent with the registered fingerprint, the secure element forgoes providing (or releasing) payment information.
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.
In some embodiments, electronic device 500A includes a display, one or more input devices, and a hardware button (e.g., a mechanical button that is configured to enable a secure payment module to provide payment information for use in a payment transaction). In some embodiments, electronic device 500A is a smartwatch electronic device. In some embodiments, device 500A includes some or all of the features of device 100, device 300, or device 500.

In some embodiments, the electronic device does not scroll the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button, even when the user performs the scroll gesture. In some examples, the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button are displayed at a location on the display that is determined based on a location of the hardware button. In some examples, the instructions (e.g., 706A) are displayed near the hardware button to inform the user that the button can be activated to authorize payment. In some embodiments, as illustrated in
In some embodiments, the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B) scroll on top of the instructions (e.g., 706A). In some examples, the scrolling causes the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B) to at first partially cover the instructions (e.g., 706A) and subsequently to fully cover the instructions (e.g., 706A). In some embodiments, displaying additional transaction details for the activity associated with the respective application includes: scrolling the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B) onto the display such that the additional transaction details obscure (fully, partially, or replace) the instructions to activate the hardware button. As a result, the electronic device 500A does not vary the location of the instructions to activate the hardware button because the location of the instruction to activate the hardware button is tied to the location of the physical hardware button.

In some embodiments, in accordance with the determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, the electronic device receives (e.g., from the user) user input, via the one or more input devices (e.g., audio via a personal assistant, detecting activation of an affordance corresponding to an alternative contact 710B), at the electronic device 500A. In response to receiving the user input at the electronic device 500A, the electronic device modifies (e.g., to correct) the transaction parameters based on the user input. In some examples, once the error with the transaction parameters has been corrected, the device will proceed with the transaction in response to detecting an input authorizing the transaction (e.g., activation of the hardware button that meets transaction authorization criteria). In some examples, the error with the transaction is resolved using the techniques described with reference to
In some embodiments, in accordance with the determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, the electronic device receives (e.g., from the user) a request to correct the error (e.g., selection of the error notification). In response to receiving the request to correct the error, in accordance with a determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are available on the electronic device 500A (e.g., in a phone contacts application or database), the electronic device 500A displays one or more of the potentially compatible transaction parameters (e.g., 710A, 710B). In some examples, the potentially compatible transaction parameters (e.g., 710A, 710B) are displayed along with a selectable option (e.g., 710C) to enter additional transaction parameters on a companion device that is different from the electronic device (e.g., an option 710C which, when selected, initiates a process for entering additional transaction parameters on a companion device as described below with reference to

In some embodiments, the user can switch among payment accounts. In some embodiments, the electronic device 500A receives user input, via the one or more input devices (e.g., a swipe gesture on a touch-sensitive surface at a location corresponding to the graphical representation 706E of the payment account), corresponding to an instruction to select a payment account from among a plurality of payment accounts of an electronic wallet of the electronic device 500A. In response to detecting the user input corresponding to the instruction to select the payment account from among a plurality of payment accounts, the electronic device 500A selects the payment account for use in the transaction for the activity (e.g., without leaving the transaction user interface). In some examples, switching a payment account includes switching between a plurality of payment accounts associated with different payment cards, and switching between the payment account includes selecting different representations of the payment cards. In some examples, switching a payment account includes switching between a plurality of payment accounts associated with a same payment card (e.g., a checking, savings, and credit account associated with a same payment card), and displaying an affordance for selecting an account associated with the payment card. In some examples, when switching from a payment account for a first payment card associated with a single account to a payment account for a second payment card associated with multiple accounts (e.g., in response to a leftward swipe on the representation of the first payment card), the device displays an animation of an affordance for selecting between the multiple accounts associated with the second payment card appearing, and when switching from the payment account associated with the first payment card to the payment account associated with the second payment card (e.g., in response to a rightward swipe on the representation of the second payment card), the device displays an animation of the affordance for selecting between the multiple accounts associated with the second payment card disappearing.
In some embodiments, display of an indication, such as an indication of payment, replaces display of a system user interface element. In some embodiments, displaying the transaction user interface includes replacing a displayed system user interface element (e.g., a time indicator 704A, a date indicator) with an indication of payment (e.g., 704B). In some examples, the respective application does not have the ability to replace the display of the system user interface element (e.g., a time indicator 704A, a date indicator). Accordingly, by replacing the system user interface element (e.g., a time indicator 704A, a date indicator) when displaying the transaction user interface, the electronic device informs the user that the transaction is being handled by a trusted application (e.g., a first-party application, a system-level application, an operating system of the electronic device).

As described below, method 800 provides an intuitive way for managing transactions. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user for managing transactions, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, enabling a user to participate in transactions more efficiently, such as by reducing the number of inputs the user is required to enter at the device, conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.
At block 802, the electronic device displays, on the display, an application user interface (e.g., 702) for a respective application (e.g., a third-party application), wherein the application user interface (e.g., 702) includes a transaction affordance (e.g., 702A) for requesting payment for activity associated with the respective application.
In accordance with some embodiments, the transaction affordance (e.g., 702A) displayed in the application user interface (e.g., 702) for the respective application is provided by a payment application of the electronic device (e.g., 500A) that is different from the respective application. In some examples, the payment application is a first-party application provided by the manufacturer of the electronic device. In some examples, the payment application is an electronic wallet application with access to information that is personal to a user of the electronic device and the respective application does not have access to the information. In some examples, the information is payment information (e.g., account number or payment account number) of a payment account (e.g., a credit account) of the electronic wallet application. In some examples, the electronic wallet application has access to information for a plurality of payment accounts associated with the user of the electronic device 500A.
In accordance with some embodiments, the transaction affordance (e.g., 702A) that, when activated, triggers display of the transaction user interface (e.g., 706), is provided by the respective application. In accordance with some embodiments, the respective application is a third-party application. In some examples, prior to displaying the application user interface for a respective application, the electronic device receives a user-provided request to download and install the respective application. In some examples, prior to displaying the application user interface for a respective application, the electronic device receives a user-provided request to download and install the respective application. In some examples, the electronic device is configured to allow the respective application to be uninstalled or deleted from the electronic device based on a user request. In accordance with some embodiments, the activity associated with the respective application includes one or more of a request for transportation, a request for ride sharing, purchasing a service, purchasing a product, and conducting a peer-to-peer transaction.
At block 804, while displaying the application user interface (e.g., 702), the electronic device detects, via the one or more input devices, selection of the transaction affordance. In some examples, detecting selection of the transaction affordance (e.g., 702A) includes detecting a tap input at a location on a touch-sensitive surface corresponding to the transaction affordance (e.g., 702A).
At block 806, in response to detecting selection of the transaction affordance (e.g., 702A), the electronic device displays a transaction user interface (e.g., 706) (e.g., replacing display of the application user interface 702 with the transaction user interface 706) that includes concurrently displaying, at block 808, transaction details (e.g., a payment amount 706B, a recipient of the payment 706C, a name of the respective application, an amount of tax, an indication 706D that the cost of the activity is variable) for the activity associated with the respective application, and, at block 810, instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button of the device to authorize payment for the activity associated with the respective application. Thus, the electronic device, by providing a visual indication (via the instruction 706A) to the user that the state of the electronic device has changed to a state where the transaction (of which the transaction details 706B-706D are displayed) can be authorized via activation of the hardware button, indicates to the user a change of state of the device. In some examples, the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button are displayed at a location on the display. In some examples, the location on the display corresponds to (e.g., is adjacent to) the hardware button of the electronic device.
In accordance with some embodiments, displaying the transaction user interface (e.g., 706) further includes displaying a graphical representation (e.g., 706E) of a payment account with which payment will be made if authorization to proceed with the payment transaction is received. In some examples, the payment account is a default payment account. In some examples, the payment account is a payment account selected by the user for payment for the activity. In some examples, the graphical representation of the payment account includes a depiction of a physical payment card associated with the payment account. In some examples, in response to receiving input corresponding to an instruction to scroll the transaction user interface (e.g., 706), the electronic device scrolls the transaction user interface (e.g., 706) on the display to display the graphical representation of the payment account. In some examples, an electronic wallet application of the electronic device stores the payment account (and, optionally, one or more additional payment accounts). The payment account (and, optionally, the one or more additional payment accounts) is an account of the user of the electronic device.
In accordance with some embodiments, the transaction details include information (e.g., 706B) about a cost of the activity. In some examples, the transaction details include a total cost for the activity. In some examples, the transaction details include a shipping cost for the activity. In accordance with some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the activity has a variable cost, the transaction details include an indication (e.g., 706D) that the activity has a variable cost. Thus, the electronic device, by providing a visual indication (via the indication 706D) that the detected transaction has a variable cost, informs the user that the cost has not been finalized and that the user can perform a scroll operation (e.g., scroll down operation as illustrated in
In accordance with some embodiments, while displaying the transaction user interface (e.g., 706) that includes the transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B, contact information, shipping address, tax, total cost) and the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button, the electronic device receives input, via the one or more input devices, corresponding to an instruction (e.g., a user request to the electronic device 500A) to scroll the transaction user interface (e.g., 706), and in response to receiving the input corresponding to the instruction to scroll the transaction user interface (e.g., 706), the electronic device displays additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B, contact information, shipping address, tax, total cost) for the activity associated with the respective application.
In accordance with some embodiments, the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button are displayed at a location on the display that is determined based on a location of the hardware button (e.g., adjacent to the hardware button). In some examples, in accordance with a determination that the hardware button is in a first location, displaying the instructions (e.g., 706A) at a first location on the display, and in accordance with a determination that the hardware button is in a second location, displaying the instructions (e.g., 706A) at a second location on the display that is different from the first location. Thus, by arranging the instructions (e.g., 706A) adjacent to the hardware button that should be activated to authorize the transaction, the user is informed of the proper hardware button (e.g., from among multiple buttons) for authorizing the transaction and the user can avoid extraneous (or erroneous) button presses, such as button presses of incorrect buttons that would cause the electronic device to transition to a state where activation of the hardware button (even the proper hardware button) does not authorize the transaction. In accordance with some embodiments, displaying additional transaction details for the activity associated with the respective application includes foregoing scrolling the instructions to activate the hardware button to activate the hardware button, and scrolling the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B) onto the display. In some examples, the instructions to activate the hardware button remains displayed at the location on the display while the additional transaction details scrolls onto the display. In some examples, the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button fades out on the display while the additional transaction details scrolls onto the display. By fading out, rather than scrolling, the instructions (e.g., 706A), the electronic device avoids misaligning the instructions (e.g., 706A) with a corresponding hardware button, thus user can avoid extraneous button presses, such as button presses of incorrect buttons that would cause the electronic device to transition to a state where activation of the hardware button (even the proper hardware button) does not authorize the transaction. In some examples, electronic device fades away the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button as the electronic device scrolls the transaction user interface (e.g., 706) to reveal the additional transaction details. As a result, the electronic device does not vary the location of the displayed instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button because the location of the instruction to activate the hardware button is tied to the location of the physical hardware button. In accordance with some embodiments, displaying additional transaction details for the activity associated with the respective application includes scrolling the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B) onto the display such that the additional transaction details obscure the instructions to activate the hardware button.
In accordance with some embodiments, while displaying the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B), the electronic device detects, via the one or more input devices, selection of a first detail (e.g., 708B) of the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B), and, in response to detecting selection of (e.g., detecting activation of the affordance corresponding to) the first detail (e.g., 708B) of the additional transaction details, the electronic device displays one or more options (e.g., 710A, 710B, 710C) for the first detail. In some examples, displaying the one or more options includes replacing display of the additional transaction details (e.g., 708A, 708B) with display of the one or more options (e.g., 710A, 710B, 710C).
In accordance with some embodiments, in accordance with the transaction user interface being displayed, the electronic device monitors the hardware button for activation, detects activation of the hardware button, and, in response to detecting activation of the hardware button, in accordance with a determination that the activation of the hardware button meets transaction authorization criteria, proceeds with a transaction for the activity. In some examples, in response to detecting activation of the hardware button, in accordance with a determination that the activation of the hardware button does not meet the transaction authorization criteria, the electronic device forgoes authorizing the transaction and, optionally, displays a different user interface that corresponds the activation of the hardware button.
In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device detects activation of the hardware button, and, in response to detecting activation of the hardware button, in accordance with a determination that transaction processing criteria have been met, including a criterion that there is no error with the transaction parameters (and, optionally, that the activation of the hardware button meets transaction authorization criteria), proceeds with a transaction for the activity, and, in accordance with a determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, displays, on the display, an error notification (e.g., 708C) indicating that an error has been detected instead of proceeding with the transaction. Thus, the electronic device provides a visual indication (e.g., 708C) of an automatically detected error condition (e.g., error with the transaction parameters), thereby prompting the user to provide input to correct the error. In some examples, the error with the transaction is resolved using the techniques described with reference to
In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device, in accordance with the determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, receives user input, via the one or more input devices (e.g., audio via a personal assistant, detecting activation of an affordance corresponding to an alternative contact 710B), at the electronic device, and, in response to receiving the user input at the electronic device, modifies the transaction parameters based on the user input. Thus, the electronic device, by providing the user with the ability to provide input to correct the error condition (e.g., the error with the transaction parameters), reduces the need for the user to perform complicated navigation of the user interface to correct the error condition. In some examples, once the error with the transaction parameters has been corrected, the electronic device proceeds with the transaction in response to detecting an input authorizing the transaction.
In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device, in accordance with the determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, receives a request to correct the error, and, in response to receiving the request to correct the error, in accordance with a determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are available on the electronic device, displays one or more of the potentially compatible transaction parameters (e.g., 710A, 710B), and, in accordance with a determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are not available on the electronic device, displays instructions to enter additional transaction parameters on a companion device that is different from the electronic device. In some examples, the potentially compatible transaction parameters (e.g., 710A, 710B) are displayed along with a selectable option (e.g., 710C) to enter additional transaction parameters on a companion device that is different from the electronic device (e.g., an option 710C which, when selected, initiates a process for entering additional transaction parameters on a companion device). Thus, the electronic device. by providing the user with a visual indication (e.g., 708C) of an automatically detected error condition (e.g., error with the transaction parameters, no), prompts the user to provide input to correct the error.
In accordance with some embodiments, displaying, on the display, the error notification (e.g., 708C) indicating that an error has been detected includes replacing display of the instructions (e.g., 706A) to activate the hardware button with display of the error notification (e.g., 708C). Thus, the electronic device, by providing the user with a visual indication (e.g., 708C) of an automatically detected error condition (e.g., error with the transaction parameters), prompts the user to provide input to correct the error and indicates to the user that in the current state, as a result of the error, the hardware button cannot be used to authorize the transaction. In some examples, the error with the transaction is resolved using the techniques described with reference to
In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device receives user input, via the one or more input devices (e.g., a swipe gesture, such as a left swipe gesture or a right swipe gesture, on a touch-sensitive surface at a location corresponding to the graphical representation 906E of the payment account), corresponding to an instruction to select a payment account from among a plurality of payment accounts of an electronic wallet of the electronic device, and, in response to detecting the user input corresponding to the instruction to select the payment account from among a plurality of payment accounts, selects the payment account for use in the transaction for the activity. In some examples, switching a payment account includes switching between a plurality of payment accounts associated with different payment cards, and switching between the payment account includes selecting different representations of the payment cards. In some examples, switching a payment account includes switching between a plurality of payment accounts associated with a same payment card (e.g., a checking, savings, and credit account associated with a same payment card), and displaying an affordance for selecting an account associated with the payment card. In some examples, when switching from a payment account for a first payment card associated with a single account to a payment account for a second payment card associated with multiple accounts, the device displays an animation of an affordance for selecting between the multiple accounts associated with the second payment card appearing, and when switching from the payment account associated with the first payment card to the payment account associated with the second payment card, the device displays an animation of the affordance for selecting between the multiple accounts associated with the second payment card disappearing.
In accordance with some embodiments, displaying the transaction user interface includes replacing a displayed system user interface element (e.g., a time indicator 704A, a date indicator) with an indication of payment (e.g., 704B). Thus, by replacing the system user interface element (e.g., a time indicator 704A, a date indicator) when displaying the transaction user interface, the electronic device informs the user that the transaction is being handled by a trusted application (e.g., a first-party application, a system-level application, an operating system of the electronic device), and therefore the user avoids providing additional inputs to the electronic device to confirm that the transaction is being handled by a trusted application. In some examples, the respective application does not have the ability to replace the display of the system user interface element (e.g., a time indicator 704A, a date indicator).
In accordance with some embodiments, proceeding with the transaction for the activity includes, subsequent to detecting activation of the hardware button, and optionally, when the electronic device is in an unlocked state, and optionally, while the device is on a user's wrist, such as by detecting that the device is in contact with the user's skin, requesting a passcode (e.g., by displaying the request 714 on the display), detecting, via the one or more input devices, the passcode, and transmitting (e.g., to a remote server or to a payment processing service) the passcode (e.g., along with the payment information) for processing the transaction. In some examples, the user authenticates locally (e.g., at the electronic device) by activating (e.g., via a double-press) the hardware button and the user authenticates to a remote server (e.g., a payment processing service) via the passcode. In some examples, the passcode is verified locally at the electronic device. If the passcode is consistent with an enrolled passcode, the electronic device transmits payment information to the remote server for the transaction. If the passcode is not consistent with an enrolled passcode, the electronic device forgoes transmitting the payment information to the remote server for the transaction and, optionally, alerts the user that the passcode was not consistent with the enrolled passcode. In some examples, the user is requested to provide one or more other forms of authentication after activating the hardware button (e.g., biometric authentication with a fingerprint sensor) prior to proceeding with the transaction.
Note that details of the processes described above with respect to method 800 (e.g.,
In some embodiments, electronic device 500B includes a display, one or more input devices, and, optionally, a hardware button (e.g., a mechanical button that is configured to enable a secure payment module to provide payment information for use in a payment transaction). In some embodiments, electronic device 500B is a smartwatch electronic device. In some embodiments, device 500B includes some or all of the features of device 100, device 300, device 500, or device 500B.

In some embodiments, the electronic device 500B transmits, to the companion device 300, a request regarding a transaction parameter entry user interface. As illustrated in
In some embodiments, activating the indication of the request regarding the transaction parameter entry user interface enables the user to quickly enter the transaction parameter. Thus, the electronic device, by providing the user with a mechanism to enter the transaction parameter, reduces the number of user inputs required to access the mechanism. In some examples, as illustrated in
In some embodiments, the user uses the transaction parameter entry user interface (e.g., 922) of the companion device to enter information that is then sent the electronic device 500B. In some examples, the electronic device 500B receives (e.g., from the companion device) a respective additional transaction parameter. In some examples, the transaction parameter that the user enters (or selects, or otherwise provides) at the companion device is transmitted (e.g., by the companion device) to the electronic device for use in the transaction.
In some embodiments, as illustrated in
In some embodiments, in response to the instructions (e.g., 912) in the transaction user interface on the electronic device 500B, the user causes the companion device 300 to open the companion application (e.g., 926) on the companion device 300 and the user is automatically presented with the transaction parameter entry user interface (e.g., 922). Thus, the electronic device, by providing the user with a visual indication (e.g., 912) of an automatically detected error condition (e.g., error with the transaction parameters, potentially compatible transaction parameters are not available on the electronic device 500B), prompts the user to provide input on the companion device (e.g., 300) to correct the error.
In some embodiments, the companion device 300 automatically launches the transaction parameter entry user interface (e.g., 922) on the companion device 300 in response to receiving the request regarding the transaction parameter entry user interface from the electronic device 500B. Thus, the companion device (e.g., 300), by providing the user with a visual indication (e.g., transaction parameter entry user interface 922) of an automatically detected error condition (e.g., error with the transaction parameters, potentially compatible transaction parameters are not available on the electronic device 500B), prompts the user to provide input to correct the error and without requiring the user to provide inputs to launch the transaction parameter entry user interface (e.g., 922).
In some embodiments, as illustrated in
As illustrated in
As illustrated in
In some embodiments, in response to receiving the transaction parameter (e.g., from the companion device), the electronic device 500B updates the transaction parameters to include the respective additional transaction parameter for use in the transaction. Thus, for example, the technique reduces the number of inputs required on the electronic device to update the transaction parameters. For example, if the companion device transmits a mailing address to the electronic device, the electronic device will update the transaction parameters to use the respective additional transaction parameter. Thus, the respective additional transaction parameter is automatically selected for use in the transaction (e.g., the transaction during which the request regarding the transaction parameter entry user interface was transmitted by the electronic device).
In some embodiments, in response to receiving the respective additional transaction parameter (e.g., from the companion device), the electronic device 500B displays, on the display, an indication of the respective additional transaction parameter. Thus, the electronic device, by providing a visual indication (via indication of the respective additional transaction parameter) to the user that the electronic device has automatically detected the respective additional transaction parameter, indicates to the user that the respective additional transaction parameter has been received and, optionally, that the electronic device has changed to a state where the transaction can be authorized via activation of the hardware button. While displaying the indication of the respective additional transaction parameter, the electronic device 500B detects activation of a hardware button of the electronic device (e.g., detecting a double-press of the hardware button). In accordance with a determination that there is no error with the updated transaction parameters that include the respective additional transaction parameter, the electronic device 500B proceeds with the transaction (e.g., proceeding with making payment, transmitting payment information) for the activity (e.g., using the payment account of an electronic wallet of the electronic device). In accordance with a determination that there is an error with the updated transaction parameters, the electronic device 500B displays, on the display, a second error notification indicating that an error has been detected (and foregoing proceeding with the transaction for the activity). In some examples, if there is an error with the updated transaction parameters, the device repeats the process described above starting with
In some embodiments, as illustrated in
In some embodiments, in response to the request to proceed with the transaction, in accordance with the determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, the electronic device 500B updates a displayed characteristic (e.g., location, size, color) of a displayed user interface element (e.g., the price 906B) to indicate that the error has been detected. Thus, the electronic device, by providing the user with a visual indication (e.g., by updating the displayed characteristic) of an automatically detected error condition (e.g., error with the transaction parameters), prompts the user to provide input to correct the error. In some examples, the price to be paid (e.g., 906B) changes color from blue to red when the electronic device determines that there is an error with the transaction parameters. For example, this indicates to the user that there is an error with the transaction parameters.
In some embodiments, in response to receiving the request to correct the error, in accordance with the determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are available on the electronic device (e.g., in a memory of the electronic device, in a contact phone book of the electronic device), the electronic device 500B displays, on the display, an entry affordance (e.g., 910C), which when activated, enables the user to provide a transaction parameter at the electronic device (e.g., via dictation, via user-selection from the contacts phone application, via the companion device, as discussed above with reference to
In some embodiments, the electronic device 500B detects activation of the entry affordance (e.g., 910C). In response to detecting activation of entry affordance (e.g., 910C), the electronic device 500B monitors audio input received via a microphone of the electronic device 500B. The electronic device 500B updates the transaction parameters based on the audio input received via the microphone of the electronic device. For example, the electronic device 500B processes the audio input to detect words and/or phrases and transcribing the words and/or phrases for use as a transaction parameter, or, optionally, interpreting the words and/or phrases as verbal instructions to retrieve stored data such as email addresses, phone numbers, physical addresses, for use as a transaction parameter.
In some embodiments, the electronic device 500B detects activation of the entry affordance (e.g., 910C). In response to detecting activation of entry affordance (e.g., 910C), the electronic device 500B displays one or more contacts (e.g., addresses, phone numbers) based on contacts (e.g., addresses, phone numbers) stored in a contacts application. The electronic device 500B receives (e.g., from the user) selection of a contact of the one or more contacts. The electronic device 500B updates the transaction parameters based on the selected contact.
In some embodiments, the electronic device 500B detects activation of the entry affordance (e.g., 910C). In response to detecting activation of entry affordance, the electronic device 500B transmits, to the companion device 300, a second request regarding a second transaction parameter entry user interface. In some examples, the companion device 300 displays a second indication of the request regarding the second transaction parameter entry user interface. In some examples, the electronic device receives (e.g., from the companion device) a transaction parameter (e.g., in accordance with transmitting the second request). In some examples, the transaction parameter that the user enters (or selects, or otherwise provides) at the companion device is transmitted (e.g., by the companion device) to the electronic device for use in the transaction. In some examples, in response to receiving the transaction, the electronic device updates the transaction parameters based on the respective additional transaction parameter.
As described below, method 1000 provides an intuitive way for managing transactions. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user for managing transactions, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, enabling a user to participate in transactions more efficiently, such as by reducing the number of inputs the user is required to enter at the device or allowing the user to provide inputs at a different device, conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.
At block 1002, the electronic device receives a request to proceed with a transaction using transaction parameters.
At block 1004, in response to the request to proceed with the transaction, in accordance with a determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, the electronic device displays an error notification (e.g., 908) indicating that an error has been detected. In accordance with some embodiments, in response to the request to proceed with the transaction, in accordance with a determination that transaction processing criteria have been met, including a criterion that there was no error with the transaction parameters, the electronic device proceeds with the transaction. In some examples, proceeding with the transaction includes transmitting payment information to a remote server or a payment processing server. In some examples, proceeding with the transaction is further conditioned upon a determination as to whether or not the request to proceed with the transaction meets transaction authorization criteria; if the request to proceed with the transaction does not meet the transaction authorization criteria, the device does not proceed with the transaction, and if request to proceed with the transaction meets the transaction authorization criteria, the device proceeds with the transaction. In accordance with some embodiments, in response to the request to proceed with the transaction, in accordance with the determination that there is an error with the transaction parameters, the electronic device updates a displayed characteristic (e.g., location, size, color) of a displayed user interface element (e.g., 906B) to indicate that the error has been detected. In some examples, the price to be paid (e.g., 906B) changes color from blue to red when the electronic device determines that there is an error with the transaction parameters, thus indicating to the user that there is an error with the transaction parameters.
At block 1006, the electronic device receives, via the one or more input devices, a request to correct the error (e.g., activation of the error notification 908).
At block 1008, in response to receiving the request to correct the error, in accordance with a determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are available on the electronic device, at block 1010, the electronic device displays, on the display, one or more of the potentially compatible transaction parameters (e.g., 910A, 910B), and, in accordance with a determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are not available on the device, at block 1012, the electronic device displays, on the display, instructions (e.g., 912) to enter additional transaction parameters on a companion device (e.g., 300) that is different from the electronic device.
In accordance with some embodiments, in response to receiving the request to correct the error, in accordance with the determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are available on the electronic device, the electronic device updates the transaction parameters to include a default transaction parameter of the potentially compatible transaction parameters for use in the transaction, and the electronic device displays, on the display, one or more affordances (e.g., 910A, 910B) corresponding to one or more respective potentially compatible transaction parameters. In some examples, the electronic device displays an indication (e.g., a check mark) next to the selected default transaction parameter to indicate to the user that the default transaction parameter is selected. In some examples, the user can activate one of the one or more affordances corresponding to one or more respective potentially compatible transaction parameters to cause the electronic device to update the transaction parameters. For example, the electronic device receives activation of an affordance corresponding to a home address and updates the transaction parameters to include the home address for billing purposes. In accordance with some embodiments, in response to receiving the request to correct the error, in accordance with the determination that potentially compatible transaction parameters are available on the electronic device, the electronic device displays, on the display, an entry affordance, which when activated, enables the user to provide a transaction parameter at the electronic device, that is not included in the potentially compatible transaction parameters.
In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device detects activation of the entry affordance, in response to detecting activation of entry affordance, monitors audio input received via a microphone of the electronic device, and updates the transaction parameters based on the audio input received via the microphone of the electronic device. In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device detects activation of the entry affordance, in response to detecting activation of entry affordance, displays one or more contacts (e.g., addresses, phone numbers) based on contacts (e.g., addresses, phone numbers) stored in a contacts application, receives selection of a contact of the one or more contacts, and updates the transaction parameters based on the selected contact. In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device detects activation of the entry affordance, and, in response to detecting activation of entry affordance, transmits, to the companion device, a second request regarding a second transaction parameter entry user interface, and the companion device displays a second indication of the request regarding the second transaction parameter entry user interface. In some examples, the electronic device receives (e.g., from the companion device) a transaction parameter. In some examples, the transaction parameter that the user enters (or selects, or otherwise provides) at the companion device is transmitted (e.g., by the companion device) to the electronic device for use in the transaction. In some examples, in response to receiving the transaction, the electronic device updates the transaction parameters based on the respective additional transaction parameter.
In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device transmits, to the companion device, a request regarding a transaction parameter entry user interface, and the companion device displays an indication (e.g., 920) of the request regarding the transaction parameter entry user interface. In accordance with some embodiments, activation, on the companion device, of the indication (e.g., 920) of the request regarding the transaction parameter entry user interface causes display, on a display of the companion device, of the transaction parameter entry user interface (e.g., 922). In some examples, the transaction parameter entry user interface is a user interface of a configuration application on the companion device that corresponds to the electronic device. In some examples, the configuration application is used by the user on the companion device to configure the electronic device. In some examples, the companion device receives entry (e.g., using a virtual keyboard displayed on the display of the companion device) of a transaction parameter. In response to receiving the transaction parameter, the companion device transmits the transaction parameter to the electronic device. In accordance with some embodiments, in response to receiving the transaction parameter (e.g., from the companion device), the electronic device updates the transaction parameters to include the respective additional transaction parameter for use in the transaction.
In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device receives (e.g., from the companion device) a respective additional transaction parameter, and, in response to receiving the respective additional transaction parameter, updates a transaction user interface (e.g., 906) in accordance with the respective additional transaction parameter, on the display. In some examples, the transaction parameter that the user enters (or selects, or otherwise provides) at the companion device is transmitted (e.g., by the companion device) to the electronic device for use in the transaction. In some examples, the companion device provides the respective additional transaction parameter when it is input on the companion device even if the companion device did not launch the transaction parameter entry user interface based on information from the device. In some examples, in response to receiving the transaction parameter, the electronic device updates the display.

The operations described above with reference to
The foregoing description, for purpose of explanation, has been described with reference to specific embodiments. However, the illustrative discussions above are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations are possible in view of the above teachings. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the techniques and their practical applications. Others skilled in the art are thereby enabled to best utilize the techniques and various embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated.
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 invitational content or any other content that may be of interest to them. 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, home addresses, or any other identifying 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 content that is of greater interest to the user. Accordingly, use of such personal information data enables calculated control of the delivered content. Further, other uses for personal information data that benefit the user are also contemplated by the present disclosure.
The present disclosure further 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. For example, 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 should occur only after receiving the informed consent of the users. Additionally, such entities would take 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.
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 advertisement 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. In another example, users can select not to provide location information for targeted content delivery services. In yet another example, users can select to not provide precise location information, but permit the transfer of location zone information.
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, 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 content delivery services, or publically available information.
This application claims priority to U.S. provisional patent application 62/349,010, entitled “USER INTERFACES FOR TRANSACTIONS,” filed on Jun. 12, 2016, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
