Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for facilitating operations. In some examples, computer systems provide indications that educate and/or guide users for performing an operation. In some examples, computer systems perform a first operation based on a first type of user input corresponding to a first hardware input device and perform a second operation based on a second type of user input corresponding to the first hardware input devices. In some examples, computer systems adjust audio output of an emergency siren based on detecting a particular type of event. In some examples, computer systems display different types and/or sizes of notifications based on an operating mode of a respective computer system. In some examples, computer systems forgo performing one or more operations when a respective computer system operates in a low power mode.

1 . A computer system configured to communicate with a display generation component, comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:

detecting an occurrence of an event; and

in response to detecting the occurrence of the event, displaying a notification corresponding to the event, including:

in accordance with a determination that the computer system satisfies a respective set of one or more criteria that indicate that the computer system is in a state in which user input is occurring or is likely to occur, displaying, via the display generation component, a first notification corresponding to the event, wherein the first notification obscures a first amount of a display region that was used to display a user interface prior to displaying the first notification; and

in accordance with a determination that the computer system does not satisfy the respective set of one or more criteria that indicate that the computer system is in a state in which user input is occurring or is likely to occur, displaying, via the display generation component, a second notification corresponding to the event, wherein the second notification obscures a second amount of a display region that was used to display a user interface prior to displaying the second notification, wherein the second amount is larger than the first amount.

2 . The computer system of claim 1 , wherein:

the state in which user input is occurring or is likely to occur includes the computer system displaying, via the display generation component, an editing user interface, a selection user interface, or a drafting user interface; and

the state in which user input is occurring or is likely to occur does not include the computer system displaying an information display user interface.
