The present disclosure relates generally to computer user interfaces, and more specifically to user interfaces for providing weather information on an electronic device.
Electronic devices may provide various types of information to a user throughout the day. One type of information that a user may wish to access through such an electronic device is weather information. For example, a user may wish to obtain weather information, such as current or forecasted weather conditions, for a location of interest. A user may wish to receive an alert of the weather conditions, such as weather conditions at the device's (and user's) location or the location of an upcoming event. As electronics packaging techniques improve, smaller and more portable devices are made, which challenges computer user interface designers with providing weather information that a user is accustomed to receiving on reduced-size devices. That is, user interfaces that provide weather conditions, weather alerts, and other weather information to a user on a reduced-size portable electronic device will become increasingly desirable.
Some techniques for providing weather information on an electronic device such as a portable multifunction device are cumbersome and inefficient. For example, some techniques require a user to execute several inputs and to navigate a complex series of nested menus in order to access weather information of interest. Some techniques are inefficient in that they require more complex and cumbersome inputs and more time than necessary, which wastes user time and device energy. On highly portable electronic devices, which may have smaller touchscreens, the navigational inputs required by these techniques are particularly challenging as incremental touch movements may block much of the touchscreen. On battery-operated devices, these techniques impose user interface interactions that demand battery power.
Accordingly, the present inventions provide, inter alia, the benefit of electronic devices with more efficient, less cumbersome methods and interfaces for providing weather information. Such methods and interfaces optionally complement or replace other methods for providing weather information. Such methods and interfaces reduce the cognitive burden on a user and produce a more efficient man-machine interface. Such methods and interfaces may also reduce the number of unnecessary, extraneous, repetitive, and/or redundant inputs, and may create a faster and more efficient user interface arrangement, which may reduce the number of required inputs, reduce processing power, and reduce the amount of time for which user interfaces need to be displayed in order for desired functions to be accessed and carried out. For battery-operated computing devices, such methods and interfaces conserve power and increase the time between battery charges (and decrease the time to fully charge a battery), including by reducing unnecessary or accidental inputs and by obviating unnecessary extra user inputs.
The above deficiencies and other problems are reduced or eliminated by the disclosed devices, methods, and computer-readable media. In some embodiments, the device is a desktop computer. In some embodiments, the device is portable (e.g., a notebook computer, tablet computer, or handheld device). In some embodiments, the device has a touchpad. In some embodiments, the device has a touch-sensitive display (also known as a “touch screen” or “touch screen display”). In some embodiments, the device has hardware input mechanisms such as depressible buttons and/or rotatable input mechanisms. In some embodiments, the device has a graphical user interface (GUI), one or more processors, memory, and one or more modules, programs, or sets of instructions stored in the memory for performing multiple functions. In some embodiments, the user interacts with the GUI through finger contacts and gestures on the touch-sensitive surface and/or through rotating the rotatable input mechanism and/or through depressing hardware buttons. Executable instructions for performing these functions are, optionally, included in a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium or other computer program product configured for execution by one or more processors. Executable instructions for performing these functions are, optionally, included in a transitory computer-readable storage medium or other computer program product configured for execution by one or more processors.

Similarly, the phrase “if it is determined” or “if [a stated condition or event] is detected” may be 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 FDA 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 Much-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 may support 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.

Touch screen 112 is used to implement virtual or soft buttons and one or more soft keyboards.
Touch-sensitive display 112 provides an input interface and an output interface between the device and a user. Display controller 156 receives and/or sends electrical signals from/to touch screen 112. Touch screen 112 displays visual output to the user. The visual output may include graphics, text, icons, video, and any combination thereof (collectively termed “graphics”). In some embodiments, some or all of the visual output may correspond to user-interface objects.
Touch screen 112 has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor or set of sensors that accepts input from the user based on haptic and/or tactile contact. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 (along with any associated modules and/or sets of instructions in memory 102) detect contact (and any movement or breaking of the contact) on touch screen 112 and convert the detected contact into interaction with user-interface objects (e.g., one or more soft keys, icons, web pages, or images) that are displayed on touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, a point of contact between touch screen 112 and the user corresponds to a finger of the user.
Touch screen 112 may use LCD (liquid crystal display) technology, LPD (light emitting polymer display) technology, or LED (light emitting diode) technology, although other display technologies may be used in other embodiments. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 may detect contact and any movement or breaking thereof using any of a plurality of touch sensing technologies now known or later developed, including but not limited to capacitive, resistive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave technologies, as well as other proximity sensor arrays or other elements for determining one or more points of contact with touch screen 112.

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

Touch screen 112 may have a video resolution in excess of 100 dpi. In some embodiments, the touch screen has a video resolution of approximately 160 dpi. The user may make 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 may include 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 may be 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 may include 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.
Device 100 may also include one or more optical sensors 164.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165,
Device 100 may also include one or more proximity sensors 166.
Device 100 optionally also includes one or more tactile output generators 167.
Device 100 may also include one or more accelerometers 168.
In some embodiments, the software components stored in memory 102 include operating system 126, communication module (or set of instructions) 128, contact/motion module (or set of instructions) 130, graphics module (or set of instructions) 132, text input module (or set of instructions) 134, Global Positioning System (GPS) module (or set of instructions) 135, and applications (or sets of instructions) 136. Furthermore, in some embodiments memory 102 (
Operating system 126 (e.g., Darwin, RTXC, LINUX, UNIX, OSX, iOS, WINDOWS, or an embedded operating system such as VxWorks) includes various software components and/or drivers for controlling and managing general system tasks (e.g., memory management, storage device control, power management, etc.) and facilitates communication between various hardware and software components.
Communication module 128 facilitates communication with other devices over one or more external ports 124 and also includes various software components for handling data received by RF circuitry 108 and/or external port 124. External port 124 (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB), FIREWIRE, etc.) is adapted for coupling directly to other devices or indirectly over a network (e.g., the Internet, wireless LAN, etc.). In some embodiments, the external port is a multi-pin (e.g., 30-pin) connector that is the same as, or similar to and/or compatible with the 30-pin connector used on iPod® (trademark of Apple Inc.) devices.
Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects contact with touch screen 112. (in conjunction with display controller 156) and other touch sensitive devices (e.g., a touchpad or physical click wheel). Contact/motion module 130 includes various software components for performing various operations related to detection of contact, such as determining if contact has occurred (e.g., detecting a finger-down event), determining an intensity of the contact (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact or a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact), determining if there is movement of the contact and tracking the movement across the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., detecting one or more finger-dragging events), and determining if the contact has ceased (e.g., detecting a finger-up event or a break in contact). Contact/motion module 130 receives contact data from the touch-sensitive surface. Determining movement of the point of contact, which is represented by a series of contact data, optionally includes determining speed (magnitude), velocity (magnitude and direction), and/or an acceleration (a change in magnitude and/or direction) of the point of contact. These operations are, optionally, applied to single contacts (e.g., one finger contacts) or to multiple simultaneous contacts (e.g., “multitouch”/multiple finger contacts). In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 and display controller 156 detect contact on a touchpad.
In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 uses a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an operation has been performed by a user (e.g., to determine whether a user has “clicked” on an icon). In some embodiments at least a subset of the intensity thresholds are determined in accordance with software parameters (e.g., the intensity thresholds are not determined by the activation thresholds of particular physical actuators and can be adjusted without changing the physical hardware of device 100). For example, a mouse “click” threshold of a trackpad or touch screen display can be set to any of a large range of predefined threshold values without changing the trackpad or touch screen display hardware. Additionally, in some implementations a user of the device is provided with software settings for adjusting one or more of the set of intensity thresholds (e.g., by adjusting individual intensity thresholds and/or by adjusting a plurality of intensity thresholds at once with a system-level click “intensity” parameter).
Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects a gesture input by a user. Different gestures on the touch-sensitive surface have different contact patterns (e.g., different motions, timings, and/or intensities of detected contacts). Thus, a gesture is, optionally, detected by detecting a particular contact pattern. For example, detecting a finger tap gesture includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting a finger-up (liftoff) event at the same position (or substantially the same position) as the finger-down event (e.g., at the position of an icon). As another example, detecting a finger swipe gesture on the touch-sensitive surface includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting one or more finger-dragging events, and subsequently followed by detecting a finger-up (liftoff) event.
Graphics module 132 includes various known software components for rendering and displaying graphics on touch screen 112 or other display, including components for changing the visual impact (e.g., brightness, transparency, saturation, contrast or other visual property) of graphics that are displayed. As used herein, the term “graphics” includes any object that can be displayed to a user, including, without limitation, text, web pages, icons (such as user-interface objects including soft keys), digital images, videos, animations and the like.
In some embodiments, graphics module 132 stores data representing graphics to be used. Each graphic is, optionally, assigned a corresponding code. Graphics module 132 receives, from applications etc., one or more codes specifying graphics to be displayed along with, if necessary, coordinate data and other graphic property data, and then generates screen image data to output to display controller 156.
Haptic feedback module 133 includes various software components for generating instructions used by tactile output generator(s) 167 to produce tactile outputs at one or more locations on device 100 in response to user interactions with device 100.
Text input module 134, which may be a component of graphics module 132, provides soft keyboards for entering text in various applications (e.g., contacts 137, e-mail 140, IM 141, browser 147, and any other application that needs text input).
GPS module 135 determines the location of the device and provides this information for use in various applications (e.g., to telephone 138 for use in location-based dialing; to camera 143 as picture/video metadata; and to applications that provide location-based services such as weather widgets, local yellow page widgets, and map/navigation widgets).
Applications 136 may include the following modules (or sets of instructions), or a subset or superset thereof:
Examples of other applications 136 that may be stored in memory 102 include other word processing applications, other image editing applications, drawing applications, presentation applications, JAVA-enabled applications, encryption, digital rights management; voice recognition, and voice replication.

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 may be combined or otherwise rearranged in various embodiments. For example, video player module may be 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 may be 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 may 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 may be called the hit view, and the set of events that are recognized as proper inputs may be 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 may utilize or call 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 may 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 may also include 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 may 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 may also include one or more physical buttons, such as “home” or menu button 204. As described previously, menu button 204 may be used to navigate to any application 136 in a set of applications that may be 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 one embodiment, 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
Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces that may be implemented on, for example, portable multifunction device 100.
It should be noted that the icon labels illustrated in
Although some of the examples which 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.
Techniques for detecting and processing touch intensity may be 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 may permit device 500 to be worn by a user.
Input mechanism 508 may be a microphone, in some examples. Personal electronic device 500 can include 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 be a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, 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 above, including processes 1400-2000 and 3000 (
As used here, the term “affordance” refers to a user-interactive graphical user interface object that may be 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 may include 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 may receive 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 may be 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 may be 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 may be 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.
As used herein, an “installed application” refers to a software application that has been downloaded onto an electronic device (e.g., devices 100, 300, and/or 500) and is ready to be launched (e.g., become opened) on the device. In some embodiments, a downloaded application becomes an installed application by way of an installation program that extracts program portions from a downloaded package and integrates the extracted portions with the operating system of the computer system.
As used herein, the term “open application” or “executing application” refers to a software application with retained state information (e.g., as part of device/global internal state 157 and/or application internal state 192). An open or executing application may be any one of the following types of applications:
As used herein, the term “closed application” refers to software applications without retained state information (e.g., state information for closed applications is not stored in a memory of the device). Accordingly, closing an application includes stopping and/or removing application processes for the application and removing state information for the application from the memory of the device. Generally, opening a second application while in a first application does not close the first application. When the second application is displayed and the first application ceases to be displayed, the first application becomes a background application.
As used herein, the term “closed application” refers to a software application without retained state information (e.g., state information for closed applications is not stored in a memory of the device). Accordingly, closing an application includes stopping and/or removing application processes for the application and removing state information for the application from the memory of the device. Generally, opening a second application while in a first application does not close the first application. When the second application is displayed and the first application ceases to be displayed, the first application becomes a background application.
Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces (“UI”) and associated processes that may be implemented on a multifunction device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface, such as devices 100, 300, and/or 500 (
1. Weather User Interfaces
The user interfaces for providing weather information (also referred to as “weather user interfaces”) described below are illustrated by exemplary sequences of screens that one or more of devices 100, 300, and/or 500 can display in response to detecting various user inputs. In these sequences, the arrows indicate the order in which the screens are displayed, and the text shown above the arrows indicates exemplary inputs detected by the device. The device may respond similarly to different inputs; not all possible inputs that can result in the depicted sequence of screens are shown.
As used here, the term “affordance” refers to a user-interactive graphical user interface object that may be displayed on the display screen of device 100, 300, and/or 500 (
Affordance 606 may correspond to a weather application in that the weather application may launch in response to a user's selection of affordance 606. A weather application provides weather information. Weather information may include weather conditions such as, for example, temperature, precipitation, sunshine, cloud cover, wind (including direction and/or speed), barometric pressure, humidity, hazardous or inclement weather conditions, combinations thereof, and so forth.
As described in more detail below, weather information may reflect current weather conditions, forecasted weather conditions, or historical weather conditions. Weather information may reflect weather conditions at a current location of the device, or a different location. A location different from the current location may be a user- or system-designated location. A user-designated location is identified by a user. A system-designated location is identified by the system. A device may determine its current location using a GPS sensor and/or a WiFi location sensor.
To access weather information, device 600 may retrieve weather information from an external server. In some embodiments, device 600 may retrieve weather information from a weather service, such as The Weather Channel, Accuweather, The National Weather Service, Yahoo!™ Weather, Weather Underground, and the like.
A user may select (e.g., make touch contact) with affordance 606 to launch the weather application. In response to a user's selection of the affordance device 600 may launch the weather application and display a user interface screen conveying weather information for a time and location of interest.
Attention is now directed to how weather information may be displayed in various embodiments with reference to
User interface screen 610 may be too large to be displayed completely on-screen at one time. When a first portion of user interface screen 610 is displayed, user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 612 in a particular direction (e.g., rotation 614) to scroll the displayed portion of user interface screen 610 to display the second portion.
In some embodiments, scrolling the first user interface screen may include translating the first user interface screen on-screen. In some embodiments, the extent of rotation may be proportional to the amount of scrolling of the display (e.g., on-screen translation). In this scenario, a smaller rotation may scroll the displayed portion of the user interface screen less than a larger rotation. Relating the extent of rotation of the rotatable input mechanism 612 allows the user to precisely control which content(s) of the user interface screen are to be viewed.
While the first portion of user interface screen 610 is displayed, a user may swipe the touchscreen to display at least a portion of a user interface screen 620 that includes indications of a second location and a temperature at the second location. In some embodiments, the swipe may be a horizontal finger swipe, e.g., swipe 622, which causes device 600 to display indications of a third location and a temperature at the third location on screen 630. In this way, device 600 user navigation between weather information corresponding to different locations. In addition, a user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 612 in a particular direction (e.g., rotation 614) to scroll the displayed portion of user interface screen 620 to display a second portion.
Advantageously, allowing the user to navigate the application in multiple ways through different inputs, such as rotating the rotatable input mechanism and swiping the touch-sensitive display, increases the number of potential user interactions with the device and sustains the man-machine interaction. This is particularly important for a device with a reduced-size user interface. Since a reduced size decreases the size of the user interface, rather than relying solely on the user touching displayed user interface objects, these embodiments allow for information-dense and interactive applications by increasing the combinations of possible user interactions. In addition, incremental touch movements such as scrolling may be difficult on smaller device, particularly for larger fingers that may block much of the screen. A rotatable input mechanism solves this problem by allowing incremental movements without relying on user touches, thus enhancing the man-machine interface.
In some embodiments, the second part of user interface screen 610 or 620 may include a forecasted temperature for the indicated location. A forecasted temperature may include, for example, the temperature forecasted for the next hour, the next day, or a weekly forecast.
In some embodiments, the first location indicated on user interface screen 610 is the current location of device 600. In some embodiments, the second location indicated by user interface screen 620 is distinct from the current location of device 600. In this scenario, the second location may be user-designated, for example a location of interest designated by the user, or the second location may be system-designated, for example a major world city (e.g., New York, London, or Tokyo).
In some embodiments, while the second part of user interface screen 610 or 620 is displayed, a user may rotate the rotatable input mechanism 612 in a direction opposite the particular direction to scroll the displayed portion of user interface screen 610 or 620 to display the first portion. For example, a rotation of the rotatable input mechanism 612 in a clockwise direction may scroll the user interface screen 610 or 620 to move the displayed part from the first portion to the second portion, and a rotation of the rotatable input mechanism 612 in a counter-clockwise direction may scroll the user interface screen 610 or 620 to move the displayed part from the second portion to the first portion, or vice versa.
In some embodiments, device 600 conveys the weather condition at a time and location of interest using images. Exemplary images may include affordances, animations, and icons. The images may be realistic, such as a photograph-quality representation, or may be stylized, such as a cartoon, icon, or other symbolic representation. The images may depict a weather condition using, for example, a sun, moon, stars, cloud, rain drop, snowflake, hail, lightning bolt, wavy or curved lines (indicating wind or breeze), and so forth. The images may depict a weather condition using an item associated with the weather condition, such as an umbrella, coat, boots, protective eyewear, sunglasses, mittens or gloves, scarf, and so forth. Any of these visual representations may further involve an on-screen animation.
In some embodiments, device 600 conveys the precipitation at a time and location of interest using images. The image may indicate the specific type of precipitation in a current weather condition, or it may generically represent any form of inclement weather. For example, the images may depict a type of precipitation, such as a rain drop, snowflake, hail, lightning bolt, and so forth. The images may depict an object typically used to cope with inclement weather, such as an umbrella, a coat, boots, protective eyewear, mittens or gloves, scarf, and so forth.
In some embodiments, device 600 may display the image indicative of weather information as a wallpaper. As used here, consistent with its accepted meaning in the art, the phrase “wallpaper” refers to the background of a user interface screen that is visually distinguishable from text and user interface objects also displayed in the user interface screen. For example, user interface screen 610 and/or 620 may include a wallpaper that visually indicates weather conditions in addition to the corresponding location and temperature. Current weather may include current weather conditions, such as precipitation, sunshine, cloud cover, wind, and so forth. Wallpaper may represent current weather graphically, for example through use of stylized or realistic renderings of a weather condition (e.g., a cloud icon or a realistic rendering of a cloud). In some embodiments, wallpaper may include a realistic representation, such as with a photograph, of a scene depicting similar weather to the indicated current weather.
Advantageously, the use of imagery as indications of weather conditions allows device 600 to display weather information to a user in clear and comprehensible manner, thereby improving the efficiency of the man-machine interface on a reduced-size device. Providing weather information graphically through imagery also affords the opportunity to combine graphical and textual elements to provide weather information as efficiently as possible. For example, user interface screen 610 and/or 620 could, in some embodiments, depict current weather conditions using a wallpaper and depict the corresponding location and temperature through text overlaid on the wallpaper, thereby preserving space on the display for text to indicate, for example, location and temperature, while the weather condition is communicated through imagery (e.g., a background wallpaper).
In some embodiments, user interface screen 610 and/or 620 may include an affordance indicating the currently displayed user interface screen and a position of the displayed user interface screen within a sequence of the user interface screens. For example, the affordance may indicate that user interface screen 620 is after user interface screen 610 in a sequence of user interface screens. The affordance may indicate this in various ways. For example, the affordance may depict a sequence of dots, the position of each indicating the sequence of the user interface screens, with the dot representing the currently displayed user interface screen highlighted (e.g., as a filled circle, when the other dots are not filled). This allows the user to navigate more easily through multiple user interface screens. As another example, the affordances may each appear tab-like to form, together, a tabbed display layout.
Attention is now directed to how weather information may be displayed in some embodiments, with reference to
In the illustrated embodiment, a user may access weather information for different times of day using rotatable input mechanism 708. While user interface screen 710 is displayed, a user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 708 (e.g., rotation 712). In response to the movement of the rotatable input mechanism, device 700 may display a forecasted temperature for the location. In some embodiments, device 700 may display the forecasted temperature by replacing the display of user interface screen 710 with a display of user interface screen 720.
In some embodiments, while the forecasted temperature is displayed, a user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 708 (e.g., rotation 722). In response to the movement of the rotatable input mechanism, device 700 may display a second forecasted temperature for the location. In some embodiments, device 700 may display the second forecasted temperature by replacing the display of user interface screen 720 with a display of user interface screen 730. In some embodiments, device 700 may display a time corresponding to the time of the displayed current or forecasted temperature (e.g., as shown by time 724 or time 732).
In some embodiments, the first and second forecasted temperatures differ by a predetermined time interval. For example, if current time is noon, user interface screen 710 may display indications of the time, the location, and the temperature at the location at noon. In this example, if the time of the first forecasted temperature is 2 pm, user interface screen 720 may display indications of the location and the forecasted temperature for the location at 2 pm (depicted by time 724). In this example, if the predetermined time interval is two hours, user interface screen 730 may display indications of the location and the second forecasted temperature for the location at 4 pm (depicted by time 732). In some embodiments, the predetermined interval is two hours. In some embodiments, the predetermined interval is one hour.
In some embodiments, device 700 may obtain a time of sunset for the location and, while the second forecasted temperature is displayed, a user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 708. In response to the movement of the rotatable input mechanism, device 700 may display a forecasted temperature for the location at the time of sunset.
The time of sunset for a location on a day may be obtained from an external server. In some embodiments, device 700 may obtain the time of sunset for the location on the current day from a weather service, such as The Weather Channel, Accuweather, The National Weather Service, Yahoo!™ Weather, Weather Underground, and the like. In some embodiments, device 700 may obtain the time of sunset for the location on the current day from organizations such as the United States Naval Observatory or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
In some embodiments, device 700 may obtain a time of sunrise for the current day or the next calendar day for the location and, while a forecasted temperature for the location is displayed, a user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 708. In response to the movement of the rotatable input mechanism, device 700 may display a forecasted temperature for the location at the time of sunrise. In some embodiments, a user may rotate the rotatable input mechanism to display the forecasted temperature at sunrise for the next calendar day. In some embodiments, a user may rotate the rotatable input mechanism to display the forecasted or historical temperature at sunrise for the current day.
The time of sunrise for a location on a day may be obtained from an external server. In some embodiments, device 700 may obtain the time of sunrise for the location on the current day from a weather service, such as The Weather Channel, Accuweather, The National Weather Service, Yahoo!™ Weather, Weather Underground, and the like. In some embodiments, device 700 may obtain the time of sunrise for the location on the current day from organizations such as the United States Naval Observatory or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
In some embodiments, device 700 may display a visual representation of forecasted weather at the location (e.g., on any or all of user interface screens 710, 720, and 730). In some embodiments, the visual representation includes an affordance that represents forecasted weather, and the position of the affordance within the displayed user interface screen varies based on the time being forecasted. In some embodiments, the affordance may be displayed at a position along the circumference of a circle centered on the displayed user interface screen, i.e., as with a clock face. In these examples, the position of the affordance along the circumference of the circle may indicate time, similar to a position indicated by the hour hand of a clock.
In these examples, the position of the affordance depicts the time being forecasted in a way familiar to the user (e.g., like a clock face) to provide information in a way that is intuitive and comprehensible to the user, thus improving the man-machine interface. Using the position of the affordance to depict time allows the user to immediately understand the time of day and the weather conditions forecasted for that time. Using the affordance and its position to visually represent forecasted weather and the time being forecasted is also particularly advantageous for a reduced-size device because it provides these data to the user at a glance in an easily understandable way without relying upon text or other visual objects that may be difficult to discern on a reduced-size display. These embodiments of a user interface for providing weather information allow for a more efficient man-machine interface on a device for which the visual interface is smaller, such as a device having a reduced-size display.
In some embodiments, while a temperature for the location is displayed, a user may swipe the touch-sensitive display of touchscreen 704. In response to detecting the swipe, the device may display a current temperature for a second location distinct from the first location. In some embodiments, the swipe does not begin at the bezel of the device. In some embodiments, the swipe is a substantially horizontal swipe. In some embodiments, a substantially horizontal swipe is a swipe having a horizontal movement exceeding a vertical movement by a threshold value.
In some embodiments, the displayed user interface screen may include an affordance indicating the currently displayed location and a position of the displayed location within a sequence of locations. The affordance may indicate this in various ways. For example, the affordance may depict a sequence of dots, the position of each indicating the sequence of the locations, with the dot representing the currently displayed location highlighted (e.g., as a filled circle, when the other dots are not filled). As another example, the affordances may each appear tab-like to form, together, a tabbed display layout. This allows the user to navigate more easily through multiple locations.
Attention is now directed to how weather information may be displayed in various embodiments with reference to
In some embodiments, while the indications of the second location and the current temperature at the second location are displayed, a user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 806 in an opposite direction. In response to detecting the movement of the rotatable input mechanism 806 in the opposite direction, device 800 may display the affordance (e.g., affordance 808). In some embodiments, a user may display indications of the temperature at the second location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 806 in the clockwise direction or display the affordance representing the weather application by rotating rotatable input mechanism 806 in the counterclockwise direction (or vice versa).
In some embodiments, while the indications of the first location and the current temperature at the first location are displayed, a user may swipe the touch-sensitive display of touchscreen 804. In response to detecting the swipe, device 800 may scroll the displayed weather information, e.g., to reveal additional weather information. In some embodiments, device 800 may scroll the displayed weather information by translating the displayed information on the display of touchscreen 804 and displaying forecasted temperature for a future day for the displayed location. For example, device 800 may display the forecasted temperature for tomorrow at the displayed location. In another example, device 800 may display a weekly weather forecast (e.g., a forecasted temperature for each of the next 5 days, the next 6 days, the next 7 days, and the like) for the displayed location. In these scenarios, device 800 may display forecasted weather information that includes a forecasted temperature, a time for the forecasted temperature, a forecasted weather condition, and/or the likelihood of forecasted precipitation (typically expressed as a percentage, e.g., the percent chance of precipitation). Forecasted weather conditions may include, for example, weather conditions including precipitation, likelihood of precipitation, humidity, sunshine, cloud cover, wind (including direction and/or speed), barometric pressure, apparent temperature, and so forth.
In some embodiments, the displayed user interface screen may include an affordance indicating the currently displayed location and a position of the displayed location within a sequence of locations. The affordance may indicate this in various ways. For example, the affordance may depict a sequence of dots, the position of each indicating the sequence of the locations, with the dot representing the currently displayed location highlighted (e.g., as a filled circle, when the other dots are not filled). As another example, the affordances may each appear tab-like to form, together, a tabbed display layout. This allows the user to navigate more easily through multiple locations.
2. Displaying Weather Through Affordance on Home Screen
Affordance 906 can itself provide weather information in some embodiments. In some embodiments, affordance 906 includes an image of the current weather at a designated location (e.g., the device's current location or user-designated location). In some embodiments, affordance 906 includes an image of the current or forecasted weather conditions at the location of an upcoming activity. Device 900 may obtain data representing an upcoming activity with an associated date and time. An activity may be user-defined or system-determined. Examples of user defined activities may include a user's calendar entries. In this scenario, device 900 may obtain data representing the upcoming activity by accessing a calendar application and obtaining data for the event (e.g., data representing any date(s) and/or time(s) of day associated with the calendar entry). Examples of system-determined activities may be activities that are frequently occurring, such as a commute, that may be tracked and identified by the electronic device. In this scenario, device 900 may obtain routine data for a user, such as the time of day a user typically leaves home for work, the time of day in which a user is typically commuting to or from work, the time of day in which a user is typically exercising, and the like. In either case (i.e., whether an activity is user-defined or system-determined), it is desirable for device 900 to obtain any data related to predicting a time in which the user may be traveling or outdoors so that device 900 may alert the user to current and/or forecasted weather conditions, particularly any inclement weather conditions. This allows the user to plan for the weather conditions accordingly, which may involve appropriately dressing for a particular weather condition, allowing for extra travel time for the activity on account of a particular weather condition, and so forth.
Device 900 may determine that the activity is to begin within a threshold amount of time and, if the upcoming activity is to begin within a threshold amount of time, display weather information based on the upcoming activity. A threshold amount of time within which an activity is to begin may include any amount of time during which a user may wish to receive information regarding weather conditions associated with the activity (e.g., advance notice for the activity). In some embodiments, a threshold amount of time may include 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. In some embodiments, an activity that is to begin within a threshold amount of time may refer to an activity beginning on the current day. In some embodiments, an activity that is to begin within a threshold amount of time may refer to an activity beginning on the next day, so as to alert a user to potential weather conditions for an activity that is scheduled to begin the next morning.
To provide an alert to the user, device 900 may, for example, replace user interface screen 902, which depicts affordances representing applications, with user interface screen 910, which displays an affordance representing a weather alert. Such an affordance may include, for example, a text (e.g., text 912) indicating a weather condition and/or an affordance, symbol, image, or any other visual object that visually indicates a weather condition.
In some embodiments, device 900 may cause a haptic event with displaying the weather information. Causing a haptic event “with” displaying weather information may include causing a haptic event before, during, or after displaying weather information. In some embodiments, device 900 may cause a haptic event that begins when device 900 displays the weather information. In some embodiments, device 900 may cause a haptic event that begins just before device 900 displays the weather information. In some embodiments, device 900 may cause a haptic event that is substantially contemporaneous, with a slight delay, with displaying the weather information.
In some embodiments, displaying weather information based on an upcoming activity may include displaying current weather information for the location of the upcoming activity. In some embodiments, device 900 may obtain a location of an upcoming activity, obtain current weather information for the location of the upcoming activity, and display current weather information for the location of the upcoming activity. Device 900 may obtain a location of an upcoming activity in various ways. For example, if the upcoming activity is a calendar entry, device 900 may obtain a location associated with the calendar entry. If the upcoming activity is determined by routine data, device 900 may obtain a location for the routine data through a location sensor (e.g., a GPS sensor).
In some embodiments, displaying weather information based on an upcoming activity may include displaying forecasted weather information for the location of the upcoming activity. In some embodiments, device 900 may obtain a start time of an upcoming activity, obtain forecasted weather information for the start time of the upcoming activity, and display the forecasted weather information for the start time of the upcoming activity. Device 900 may obtain a start time of an upcoming activity in various ways. For example, if the upcoming activity is a calendar entry, device 900 may obtain a start time associated with the calendar entry. If the upcoming activity is determined by routine data, device 900 may obtain a start time for the routine data. Device 900 may further obtain a location associated with the upcoming activity in order to determine the forecasted weather conditions for the start time of the upcoming activity at the location of the upcoming activity.
In some embodiments, displaying weather information based on an upcoming activity may include displaying weather information for the current location. In some embodiments, device 900 may obtain a current location of the device, obtain weather information for the current location of the device, and display the weather information for the current location of the device. In some embodiments, device 900 may obtain a current location of the device using the location sensor. In some embodiments, weather information for the current location may include current weather information. In some embodiments, weather information for the current location may include forecasted weather information. For example, forecasted weather information may reflect forecasted weather information for a time based on the upcoming activity, such as a start time or any other time of interest in the duration of the activity.
In some embodiments, displaying weather information based on an upcoming activity may include displaying weather information for a geographic location in-between the current location and the location of the upcoming activity. In some embodiments, device 900 may obtain a current location of the device and a location of the upcoming activity, obtain weather information for a geographic location in-between the current location and the location of the upcoming activity, and display the weather information for the geographic location in-between the current location and the location of the upcoming activity. In this scenario, a user may wish to receive weather information related to travel between a current location and the location of an upcoming activity. For example, such information may reflect weather conditions on a user's route to an upcoming activity, or on a user's commute between work and home, and so forth. A geographic location in-between a current location and the location of an upcoming activity may include to any location between the two points. In some embodiments, the geographic location may be a location on a particular route between the current location and the location of the upcoming activity, such as a road or air traffic route. In some embodiments, the geographic location may be a location on the line between the current location and the location of the upcoming activity, as the crow flies. In some embodiments, the geographic location may be a city or other location of interest between the current location and the location of the upcoming activity.
In some embodiments, device 900 may determine whether obtained weather information represents inclement weather and display a visual indication of the inclement weather. In some embodiments, inclement weather may refer to precipitation, wind, extreme temperature (high or low), or any other severe or potentially hazardous weather condition. Inclement weather may include any such weather condition that has been observed, or it may include a warning, watch, or other notification issued for the possibility of any such weather condition.
A visual indication of inclement weather may include an affordance, text, symbol, image, or any other visual object. In some embodiments, visual indications may depict current weather by a visual representation that represents weather conditions, for example, a sun, moon, stars, cloud, rain drop, snowflake, hail, lightning bolt, wavy or curved lines (indicating wind or breeze), and so forth. In some embodiments, visual indications may depict current weather by a visual representation that represents an item associated with a weather condition, such as an umbrella, coat, boots, protective eyewear, sunglasses, mittens or gloves, scarf, and so forth. In some embodiments, visual indications may include text 912 that indicates inclement weather conditions. In some embodiments, text 912 may be displayed in its entirety at once, or it may be displayed by marquee scrolling.
In some embodiments, a user may remove the display of the visual indication of inclement weather by contacting the touch-sensitive display of touchscreen 904. In response to detecting the contact, device 900 may remove the display of the visual indication of inclement weather. A user may contact the touch-sensitive display by a swipe, tap, touch, or the like.
In some embodiments, a user may launch a weather application by contacting the touch-sensitive display of touchscreen 904. In response to detecting the contact, device 900 may launch a weather application. In some embodiments, a user may contact the display at the location of a displayed affordance indicating inclement weather to launch a weather application. Allowing the user to choose whether to remove the alert or launch a weather application and receive more detailed weather information sustains user's interaction with the device by customizing the user's level of interaction with the device.
3. Selecting from Multiple Locations to View Weather Information
Turning now to
Affordance 1006 corresponds to a weather application. A user may make contact with affordance 1006 (e.g., by finger touch 1008) to launch the corresponding weather application. In response to detecting the contact, device 1000 may launch the weather application and display a grid on user interface screen 1010. A grid may include a plurality of grid portions representing different geographic locations. A “grid” layout refers to a layout in which objects are arranged along intersecting vertical columns and horizontal rows.
A user may select a location for which to view weather information by contacting a grid portion representing a first location. For example, a user may contact the display at grid portion 1012 to view weather information for the city represented by grid portion 1012. A contact on the display may include finger touch 1014. Each grid portion may include an indication of the location represented, such as a text or other visual indication (e.g., “city a” on screen 1010). In some embodiments, one of the grid portions represents a current location of the device. In some embodiments, the current location of the device is represented by the grid portion in the middle of screen 1012.
In response to detecting the contact, device 1000 may cease to display the grid and display a current temperature at the first location, such as depicted in user interface screen 1020. In addition to the current temperature, device 1000 may optionally display any other weather information using any of the indications, such as affordances, text, visual representations, icons, symbols, wallpapers, and the like described herein.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may select a second location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1022, device 1000 may display a current temperature at the second location, where the grid portion representing the second location abuts the grid portion of the first location. This connects the layout of locations represented by the grid with the rotation of the rotatable input mechanism, allowing the user to control the order in which locations are selected. Advantageously, this connection makes selection of multiple locations through the combination of touch and the rotatable input mechanism predictable for the user, thereby sustaining user interaction with the device. This connection also prevents the user from having to spend time navigating between the display of the grid and the display of the weather conditions at a location, e.g., as would occur if the user had to select a location, return to the grid, select a second location, return to the grid, etc.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may return to the display of the grid by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1022, device 1000 may display the grid. In some embodiments, a user may select a second location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022 in a particular direction and return to the display of the grid by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022 in the opposite direction.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may view a forecasted temperature for the first location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1022, device 1000 may display a forecasted temperature for the first location. In this scenario, a user may select a location from the grid by contacting touchscreen 1004 to view current weather conditions (such as temperature), and use the rotatable input mechanism to view forecasted weather conditions for the same location. Forecasted weather conditions may include, for example, an hourly forecast for the current day, a weekly forecast for the current week, and so forth.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may view additional weather information for the first location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1022, device 1000 may scroll the display of the current temperature at the first location to display additional weather information for the first location. Additional weather information may include, for example, additional details of weather conditions such as precipitation, likelihood of precipitation, humidity, sunshine, cloud cover, wind (including direction and/or speed), barometric pressure, apparent temperature, and so forth. In some embodiments, a user may scroll from the current temperature to the additional information by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022 in a particular direction and scroll from the additional information to the current temperature by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1022 in the opposite direction.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may select a second location by swiping touchscreen 1004. In response to detecting the swipe, device 1000 may display the current temperature at the second location. In some embodiments, the swipe does not begin at the bezel of device 1000.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may view additional weather information for the first location by swiping touchscreen 1004. In response to detecting the swipe, device 1000 may scroll the displayed first user interface screen to reveal additional weather information for the first location. In some embodiments, the swipe does not begin at the bezel of device 1000.
In some embodiments, displaying the current temperature of a location may include displaying an affordance indicating the location of the currently displayed temperature and a position of the displayed location within a sequence of locations represented in the grid. The affordance may indicate this in various ways. For example, the affordance may depict a sequence of dots, the position of each indicating the sequence of the locations, with the dot representing the currently displayed location highlighted (e.g., as a filled circle, when the other dots are not filled). As another example, the affordances may each appear tab-like to form, together, a tabbed display layout. This allows the user to navigate more easily through multiple locations.
Affordance 1106 corresponds to a weather application. A user may make contact with affordance 1106 to launch the corresponding weather application. In response to detecting the contact, device 1100 may launch the weather application and display a plurality of regions on user interface screen 1110, each region representing a different geographic location. A region is a contiguous display area that is visually distinguishable from the background of the weather application. The regions may be arranged along a vertical column, such as regions 1112, 1114, and 1116 as shown on user interface screen 1110.
A user may select a location for which to view weather information by contacting a region representing a first location. For example, a user may contact the display at region 1112 to view weather information for the city represented by region 1112. A contact on the display may include a finger touch. Each region may include an indication of the location represented, such as a text or other visual indication (e.g., “city A” on screen 1110), In some embodiments, one of the regions represents a current location of the device. In some embodiments, the current location of the device is represented by the region at the top of screen 1110 (“city A” represented by region 1112 in this example).
In response to detecting the contact, device 1100 may display a current temperature at the first location. In some embodiments, device 1100 ceases the display of the plurality of regions. For example, as shown in
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may select a second location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1122, device 1100 may display a current temperature at the second location, where the region representing the second location abuts the region of the first location. For illustrative purposes, if a first region (e.g., region 1112) represents a first location (in this scenario, “city A”), a second location (in this scenario, “city B”) may be represented by a second region that abuts the first region (in this scenario, region 1114). Similar to the grid of
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may return to the display of the plurality of regions by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1122, device 1100 may display the plurality of regions. In some embodiments, a user may select a second location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122 in a particular direction and return to the display of the plurality of regions by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122 in the opposite direction.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may view a forecasted temperature for the first location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1122, device 1100 may display a forecasted temperature for the first location. In this scenario, a user may select a location from the plurality of regions by contacting touchscreen 1104 to view current weather conditions (such as temperature), and use the rotatable input mechanism to view forecasted weather conditions for the same location. Forecasted weather conditions may include, for example, an hourly forecast for the current day, a weekly forecast for the current week, and so forth.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may view additional weather information for the first location by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1122, device 1100 may scroll the display of the current temperature at the first location to display additional weather information for the first location. Additional weather information may include, for example, additional details of weather conditions such as precipitation, likelihood of precipitation, humidity, sunshine, cloud cover, wind (including direction and/or speed), barometric pressure, apparent temperature, and so forth. In some embodiments, a user may scroll from the current temperature to the additional information by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122 in a particular direction and scroll from the additional information to the current temperature by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1122 in the opposite direction.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed, a user may select a second location by swiping touchscreen 1104. In response to detecting the swipe, device 1100 may display a current temperature at the second location. In some embodiments, the swipe does not begin at the bezel of device 1100.
In some embodiments, while the current temperature at the first location is displayed a user may view additional weather information for the first location by swiping touchscreen 1104. In response to detecting the swipe, device 1100 may scroll the displayed first user interface screen to reveal additional weather information for the first location. In some embodiments, the swipe does not begin at the bezel of device 1100.
In some embodiments, displaying the current temperature of a location may include displaying an affordance indicating the location of the currently displayed temperature and a position of the displayed location within a sequence of locations represented in the plurality of regions. The affordance may indicate this in various ways. For example, the affordance may depict a sequence of dots, the position of each indicating the sequence of the locations, with the dot representing the currently displayed location highlighted (e.g., as a filled circle, when the other dots are not filled). As another example, the affordances may each appear tab-like to form, together, a tabbed display layout. This allows the user to navigate more easily through multiple locations.
In some embodiments, displaying the plurality of regions may include displaying the plurality of regions as a vertical list. For example, the regions in the plurality may be arranged as the vertical list depicted by regions 1112, 1114, and 1116 on user interface screen 1110.
4. Weather User Interfaces that Depict Time through Affordance Position
An image representing a weather condition may include a realistic image, such as a photograph-quality image, or a stylized image, such as a cartoon, icon, or other symbolic representation. Images may represent a weather condition by depicting, for example, a sun, moon, stars, cloud, rain drop, snowflake, hail, lightning bolt, wavy or curved lines (indicating wind or breeze), and so forth. Images may also represent a weather condition by depicting an item associated with a weather condition, such as an umbrella, coat, boots, protective eyewear, sunglasses, mittens or gloves, scarf, and so forth. Any of these images may further include an animation.
Device 1200 may display an affordance at a first position corresponding to the first time. For example, as shown on screen 1220, affordance 1224 corresponds to 8:00 am. Therefore, a user seeing screen 1220 immediately understands the time of day being represented (through texts and affordance 1224) and the weather conditions forecasted for that time (through image 1222 and the temperature).
A user may view a weather condition for a second time of day by rotating a rotatable input mechanism, such as rotatable input mechanism 1216, 1226, 1234, 1244, or 1254. In response to detecting the movement of rotatable input mechanism 1216, device 1200 may move the affordance from the first position to a second position that corresponds to a second time of the day and update the image to represent a weather condition for the second time of day. As shown in
Taking screens 1220 and 1230 as an example, a user views the forecasted weather corresponding to 8:00 am through screen 1220. Screen 1220 displays affordance 1224 to indicate a time of day (this is further depicted by the text “8:00 am,” but indicating the time of day through both text and image is an optional feature). Screen 1220 also includes image 1222 to indicate cloudy conditions forecasted for the depicted time of day. A forecasted temperature is also provided, but this is an optional feature. By rotating rotatable input mechanism 1226, a user is able to view the forecasted weather corresponding to 10:00 am through screen 1230. Screen 1230 displays affordance 1232 to indicate a time of day and the image (a cloud) to indicate cloudy conditions forecasted for that time of day (along with an optional indication of the forecasted temperature). The position of 1232 has been updated as compared to the position of affordance 1224 to indicate the passage of time.
In some embodiments, device 1200 may move the affordance by displaying an animation translating the affordance from the first position to the second position. In the example of screens 1220 and 1230, an animation may depict the translation of affordance 1224 at the first position to affordance 1232 at the second position. The translation may occur along the circumference of a circle that encircles the image representing the weather condition. That is, affordances 1224 and 1232 may be translated along an arc of the perimeter of a circle that encircles the depicted cloud image.
In some embodiments, the circle that encircles the image representing the weather condition corresponds to a circular clock face, and a position of the affordance along the circumference of the circle corresponds to a time as defined by the clock face. This allows the user to readily determine the indicated time of day by comparing the position of the affordance to a familiar clock face depiction of time. In some embodiments, the position of the affordance may indicate the time of day by occupying the same position on the clock face as the position depicted by an hour hand at that time of day.
In some embodiments, device 1200 may obtain a time of sunset for the day. As described previously, the time of sunset for a day may be obtained from an external server. In some embodiments, device 1200 may obtain the time of sunset for the day from a weather service, such as The Weather Channel, Accuweather, The National Weather Service, Yahoo!™ Weather, Weather Underground, and the like. In some embodiments, device 1200 may obtain the time of sunset for the day from organizations such as the United States Naval Observatory or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. In some embodiments, determining a time of sunset for the day includes determining a location of device 1200 (such as by using a location sensor, e.g., a GPS sensor) and determining a time of sunset for the day at the location.
A user may view a weather condition for sunset by rotating rotatable input mechanism 1254. In response to detecting one or more movements of rotatable input mechanism 1254, device 1200 may move the affordance to a third position corresponding to the time of sunset and update the image to represent sunset. For example, using screens 1240, 1250, and 1260 as an example, a user may progress from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm to sunset by rotations 1246 and 1256. Sunset is represented on screen 1260 by image 1262, In this example, the user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 1254 once to progress from 4:00 pm to sunset, going from screen 1250 to 1260, and the user may rotate rotatable input mechanism 1244 twice to progress from 12:00 pm to sunset, going from screen 1240 to 1250 to 1260. The intervals between represented times of day may vary, particularly in moving from sunrise to another time of day and in moving from a time of day to sunset.
In some embodiments, the clock face includes a portion representing nighttime and a portion representing daytime. For example, the portion representing nighttime may include all times depicted by the clock face between sunset and sunrise of the following day, and the portion representing daytime may include all times depicted by the clock face between sunrise and sunset, Device 1200 may determine the portions of the clock face representing daytime and nighttime, for example, by obtaining times for sunset and sunrise as discussed above. The portions representing nighttime and daytime may have distinct visual appearances.
In some embodiments, device 1200 displays a visual representation of the sun when the affordance is positioned along the daytime portion and a visual representation of the moon when the affordance is positioned along the nighttime portion. In some embodiments, the image is an image of a sun, a cloud, or a moon. For example, the image may represent daytime by depicting a sun, or nighttime by depicting a moon. As described above, the image may represent a weather condition, e.g., by depicting a cloud or any of the other representations of a weather condition described herein.
In some embodiments, the affordance is a sun, a cloud, or a moon. In some embodiments, the affordance indicates whether the indicated time is during daytime or nighttime by depicting a sun for daytime or a cloud for nighttime. In some embodiments, the affordance indicates a weather condition, such as a cloud or any of the other representations of a weather condition described herein.
In some embodiments, the image is at the origin of the circle, and a position on the circle at π/2 radians (e.g., top) represents noon. In some embodiments, the image is at the origin of the circle, and a position on the circle at 90° represents noon. In some embodiments, the image is at the origin of the circle, and a position at the apex of the circle on the vertical axis of the display represents noon. As used here, the vertical axis of the display lies on the display surface of the display.
In some embodiments, the position of an affordance is used to represent the current time. In the illustrated example, affordance 1312 indicates a current time of day via its position on screen 1310, e.g., 1:30. As shown in
In some embodiments, a user may view a forecasted weather condition for another time of day by providing a user input, such as a rotation of rotatable input mechanism 1314. In response to detecting one or more movements of rotatable input mechanism 1314 (e.g., rotation 1316), device 1300 may display a second time of day and the forecasted weather for the second time of day on screen 1320. Compared to screen 1310, screen 1320 shows the user that the depicted time has changed (in this example, 4:30) by moving the affordance to a new position, such as the position of affordance 1322. In addition, affordance 1322 indicates a different weather condition (overcast or cloudy conditions) by depicting a cloud. The user may therefore view a forecasted weather condition for a future time of day by providing an input, such as a rotation of the rotatable input mechanism. Optionally, affordance 1322 may return to its previous position (indicative of the current time) after some period of idleness if no further user input is detected.
In some embodiments, a user may view a forecasted weather condition for another time of day by providing a user input, such as by touching and swiping affordance 1322 to a different position on the clock face represented by screen 1330. In response to detecting a touch contact on the position of affordance 1322 followed by a movement of the touch towards the position of affordance 1332, device 1300 may display a third time of day and the forecasted weather for the third time of day on screen 1330. Compared to screen 1320, screen 1330 shows the user that the depicted time has changed (in this example, 10:30), and affordance 1332 indicates that the third time of day is during nighttime by depicting a moon. Affordance 1332 also indicates that the forecasted weather conditions are clear by depicting a moon with no cloud cover. Optionally, affordance 1322 may return to its previous position (indicative of the current time) after some period of idleness if no further user input is detected.
In some embodiments, a displayed affordance (e.g., affordances 1312, 1322, and 1332) may indicate whether the time shown by the affordance position corresponds to daytime, nighttime, sunrise, or sunset by depicting one or more graphical indications such as a sun, moon, stars, and/or horizon line. In some embodiments, a displayed affordance (e.g., affordances 1312, 1322, and 1332) may further indicate the represented time by the color of the affordance e.g., a warm color such as red for daytime, cool color such as blue for nighttime, purple for sunset, orange for sunrise, and so forth), That is, device 1300 may use the same (or similar) affordance to indicate the same (or similar) weather condition forecasted for different times of day by imparting the affordance with different colors. These features allow a user to quickly discern the time and weather condition being shown (whether current or forecasted).
In the illustrated example, portion 1348 of screen 1340 does not have affordances indicative of weather. This omission may be used to provide visual emphasis of the current time, in some embodiments. Restated, affordance(s) representing hours of the day immediately preceding the current hour may be omitted from display. As shown, screen 1340 illustrates the current time as 6 o'clock, and no affordance (indicative of weather) is displayed at the 5 o'clock and 4 o'clock positions of screen 1340. Restated, the first displayed affordance (1346) adjacent an opening (1348) along the clock face of screen 1340 is indicative of the current hour. In some embodiments (not illustrated), all twelve hour markers on a clock face have corresponding affordances indicating weather at those hours.
In some embodiments, the visual appearances of displayed weather affordances are indicative of the times they represent. For example, screen 1350 also has multiple affordances arranged on screen as on a clock face. In contrast to screen 1340, some of the affordances (e.g., 1352) shown in screen 1350 depict the visual appearance of a moon to clarify whether the represented hour corresponds to nighttime or day time. For example, affordance 1352 depicts a moon to clarify that it represents clear weather midnight, not noon. Similarly affordance 1354 depicts a sun to clarify that sunny weather is expected for three o'clock in the afternoon (as opposed to night). As before, no affordance is displayed within on-screen portion 1356 to signal discontinuity between midnight (represented by affordance 1352) and the current hour of 3 pm (as represented by affordance 1354 and text 1358). In some embodiments (not illustrated), all twelve hour markers on a clock face have corresponding affordances indicating weather at those hours.
In some embodiments, the current time is indicated by the position of a user interface object on the display (e.g., an affordance not indicative of weather, such as a dot or other shape). For example, screen 1360 displays affordances of weather (e.g., affordance 1362) at 12 positions, as on a clock face. Displayed user interface object 1364 (e.g., a dot or other shape) is displayed adjacent to the affordance (e.g., affordance 1366) that indicates the current time. User interface object 1364 allows device 1300 to display current or forecasted weather for twelve hours while indicating the current time on the visual display. Screen 1360 may optionally include a separate indication of the current time, in addition to user interface object 1364, such as text 1358 on screen 1350.
In any of the exemplary embodiments described herein in which weather information is displayed, a user may provide a user input to change the type of weather information that is displayed. Types of weather information may include current or forecasted precipitation (e.g., likelihood, type, and/or amount of precipitation); current or forecasted temperature (e.g., air/absolute temperature or apparent temperature); and a current or forecasted weather condition (e.g., humidity, sunshine, cloud cover, wind direction, wind speed, barometric pressure, and so forth). For example, in
In some embodiments, the user input may be a touch gesture (e.g., a tap) on a touch-sensitive surface or touch-sensitive display. In some embodiments, the user input may be a contact on a touch-sensitive surface or touch-sensitive display, and in response to detecting the contact, the device may determine whether a characteristic intensity of the contact exceeds an intensity threshold. In accordance with a determination that the characteristic intensity of the contact exceeds the intensity threshold, the device may update the display to display a second class of weather information that is different from the first class of weather information. In accordance with a determination that the characteristic intensity of the contact does not exceed the intensity threshold, the device may forego updating the display.
