Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to setting up an account for a service. A request to set up an account for a first service is received. In response to receiving the request to set up the account for the first service, a first login option and a second login option are displayed. If an input selecting the first login option is detected, a request to use first contact information for a user to set up the account for the first service is transmitted. If an input selecting the second login option is detected, a request to use second contact information for the user to set up the account for the first service is transmitted. The second contact information is automatically generated for the service and does not reveal the first contact information for the user.

6. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the user interface for managing the login service for the first application includes an option that is selectable to initiate a process for ceasing to use the login service for the first application.

7. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the user interface for managing the login service for the first application includes an email address associated with an account for the first application.

8. The computer system of claim 7 , wherein the user interface for managing the login service for the first application further includes a proxy email address, different from the email address, associated with the account for the first application.

9. The computer system of claim 8 , wherein the user interface for managing the login service for the first application includes an option that is selectable to initiate a process for ceasing forwarding emails received at the proxy email address to the email address.

10. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the user interface for managing the login service for the first application includes an option that is selectable to initiate a process for viewing a privacy policy associated with the first application.

11. A method, comprising:

at a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices:

concurrently displaying, via the display generation component, a plurality of representations corresponding to a plurality of applications that use a login service, the plurality of representations including a representation of a first application and a representation of a second application different from the first application;

while displaying the representations for the plurality of applications, detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input directed to a respective representation of the plurality of representations, wherein the respective representation corresponds to a respective application of the plurality of applications; and

in response to detecting the input directed to the respective representation:

in accordance with a determination that the input is a first gesture directed to the representation of the first application, displaying a user interface for managing the login service for the first application; and

in accordance with a determination that the input is a second gesture different from the first gesture directed to the representation of the first application, initiating a process for ceasing to use the login service for the first application.

12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

in response to detecting the input directed to the respective representation:

in accordance with a determination that the input is the first gesture directed to the representation of the second application, displaying a user interface for managing the login service for the second application.

13. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

while displaying the user interface for managing the login service for the first application, detecting a second input directed to a selectable user interface element in the user interface for managing the login service for the first application; and

in response to detecting the second input, initiating a process for ceasing to use the login service for the first application.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein:

the plurality of representations further include a representation of a third application; and

initiating the process for ceasing to use the login service for the first application comprises:

displaying an affordance for ceasing to use the login service for the first application while maintaining display of the representation of the second application and the representation of the third application.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein:

the first gesture is a tap gesture, and

the second gesture is a swipe gesture.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the user interface for managing the login service for the first application includes an option that is selectable to initiate a process for ceasing to use the login service for the first application.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the user interface for managing the login service for the first application includes an email address associated with an account for the first application.
