Abstract

In some implementations, documents can be presented on a display of a computing device based on a context of the computing device. The context can include a current time and/or current location associated with the computing device. The documents can be presented based on a time and/or location associated with the documents. Documents can be downloaded and shared between devices. Documents can be dynamically updated based on document vendor provided information and/or other network based resources. In some implementations, the various graphical interfaces described herein provide access to a variety of document types in an organized and efficient manner.

in response to receiving the user input corresponding to the request to select the first document for use in a subsequent transaction:

displaying, via the display device, the first and second portions of the representation of the first document;

while displaying the first and second portions of the representation of the first document via the display device, receiving authentication information from a user of the electronic device; and

in response to receiving the authentication information, in accordance with a determination that the authentication information indicates that the user is authorized to use the first document in the transaction, allowing the first document to be used in the transaction, including making information associated with the first document available for wireless communication to a second electronic device participating in the transaction.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first document corresponds to a document of a first type, and the second document corresponds to a document of a second type, different from the first type.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the first document corresponds to a credit card, and the second document corresponds to a customer loyalty card.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first document corresponds to a first credit card, and the second document corresponds to a second credit card, different from the first credit card.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

before receiving the user input corresponding to the request to select the first document for use in the subsequent transaction, displaying, on the wake user interface, the first portion of the representation of the first document and a representation of the second document; and

in response to receiving the user input corresponding to the request to select the first document for use in the subsequent transaction, modifying the display of the first portion of the representation of the first document and the representation of the second document to indicate that the first document was selected, and the second document was not selected.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein modifying the display of the representation of the second document comprises ceasing display of the representation of the second document.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first portion of the representation of the first document includes information about the first document, and the representation of the second document includes information about the second document.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transaction comprises a purchase transaction using the first document.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein requiring authentication of the user of the electronic device comprises requiring entry of a code on the electronic device.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the code comprises an unlock code for the electronic device.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the authentication information comprises biometric authentication information of the user of the electronic device.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the biometric authentication information of the user comprises fingerprint authentication information of the user.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the biometric authentication information of the user comprises facial authentication information of the user.

14. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device in communication with a display device and one or more input devices, cause the electronic device to perform a method comprising:

receiving, via the one or more input devices, user input storing a plurality of documents on the electronic device;

in response to receiving the user input corresponding to the request to select the first document for use in a subsequent transaction:

displaying, via the display device, the first and second portions of the representation of the first document;

while displaying the first and second portions of the representation of the first document via the display device, receiving authentication information from a user of the electronic device; and

16. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the first document corresponds to a document of a first type, and the second document corresponds to a document of a second type, different from the first type.

17. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the first document corresponds to a credit card, and the second document corresponds to a customer loyalty card.

18. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the first document corresponds to a first credit card, and the second document corresponds to a second credit card, different from the first credit card.

19. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , the method further comprising:

20. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 19 , wherein modifying the display of the representation of the second document comprises ceasing display of the representation of the second document.

21. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 19 , wherein the first portion of the representation of the first document includes information about the first document, and the representation of the second document includes information about the second document.

22. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the transaction comprises a purchase transaction using the first document.

23. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein requiring authentication of the user of the electronic device comprises requiring entry of a code on the electronic device.

24. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 23 , wherein the code comprises an unlock code for the electronic device.

25. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the authentication information comprises biometric authentication information of the user of the electronic device.

26. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 25 , wherein the biometric authentication information of the user comprises fingerprint authentication information of the user.
