Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Transitioning from Low Power Mode

1 . A method, comprising:

at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display:

while the touch-sensitive display is in a low-power mode, detecting an input on the touch-sensitive display, wherein detecting the input includes detecting a contact on the touch-sensitive display; and

in response to detecting the input on the touch-sensitive display while the touch-sensitive display is in the low-power mode:

in accordance with a determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, displaying a respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, wherein the respective user interface was not displayed on the touch-sensitive display when the touch-sensitive display was in the low-power mode; and

in accordance with a determination that the input does not meet the display-activation criteria, maintaining the touch-sensitive display in the low-power mode after detecting the input without displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the display-activation criteria are met when the contact has an intensity above a respective intensity threshold.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the display-activation criteria are met when the contact moves on the touch-sensitive display by more than a predefined amount.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the display-activation criteria are met when the contact moves from an edge of the touch-sensitive display in a predefined direction by more than a predefined amount.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the input on the touch-sensitive display includes detecting a change in intensity of the contact.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the input on the touch-sensitive display includes detecting a change in position of the contact on the touch-sensitive display.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the input on the touch-sensitive display includes detecting a change in a characteristic of the contact, and the method includes:

after at least partially displaying the respective user interface on the display:

detecting a reversal of the change in the characteristic of the contact; and

in response to detecting the reversal of the change in the characteristic of the contact, gradually ceasing to display the respective user interface.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the input on the touch-sensitive display includes detecting a change in a characteristic of the contact, and the method includes:

after at least partially displaying the respective user interface on the display:

detecting a reversal of the change in the characteristic of the contact; and

in response to detecting the reversal of the change in the characteristic of the contact:

in accordance with a determination that the characteristic met or exceeded a respective threshold prior to detecting the reversal of the change in the characteristic of the contact, maintaining display of the respective user interface; and

in accordance with a determination that the characteristic did not meet or exceed the respective threshold prior to detecting the reversal of the change in the characteristic of the contact, reversing the appearance of the respective user interface by ceasing to display the respective user interface.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, in accordance with the determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, includes gradually increasing the brightness of the display.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, in accordance with the determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, includes gradually fading in the user interface on the touch-sensitive display.

11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, in accordance with the determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, includes sliding the respective user interface onto the touch-sensitive display from an edge of the display.

12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, in accordance with the determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, includes displaying an animation of the respective user interface gradually appearing on the display; and

the animation progresses from a starting point to an ending point at a rate determined based on a current value of the characteristic.

13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, in accordance with the determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, includes displaying an animation of the respective user interface gradually appearing on the display; and

the animation progresses from a starting point to an ending point in accordance with a progression of the respective characteristic from a first threshold to a second threshold.

14 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the respective user interface includes one or more of: media player controls, camera controls, a current time, a current date, a communication network signal indicator, a background image, a battery charge indicator, a device event notification, and an unlock image.

15 . An electronic device, comprising:

a touch-sensitive display;

one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive display;

one or more processors;

memory; and

one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:

while the touch-sensitive display is in a low-power mode, detecting an input on the touch-sensitive display, wherein detecting the input includes detecting a contact on the touch-sensitive display; and

in response to detecting the input on the touch-sensitive display while the touch-sensitive display is in the low-power mode:

in accordance with a determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, displaying a respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, wherein the respective user interface was not displayed on the touch-sensitive display when the touch-sensitive display was in the low-power mode; and

in accordance with a determination that the input does not meet the display-activation criteria, maintaining the touch-sensitive display in the low-power mode after detecting the input without displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display.

16 . A computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive display, cause the device to:

while the touch-sensitive display is in a low-power mode, detecting an input on the touch-sensitive display, wherein detecting the input includes detecting a contact on the touch-sensitive display; and

in response to detecting the input on the touch-sensitive display while the touch-sensitive display is in the low-power mode:

in accordance with a determination that the input meets display-activation criteria, displaying a respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display, wherein the respective user interface was not displayed on the touch-sensitive display when the touch-sensitive display was in the low-power mode; and

in accordance with a determination that the input does not meet the display-activation criteria, maintaining the touch-sensitive display in the low-power mode after detecting the input without displaying the respective user interface on the touch-sensitive display.
