Abstract

An electronic device with a display and a fingerprint sensor displays a fingerprint enrollment interface and detects, on the fingerprint sensor, a plurality of finger gestures performed with a finger. The device collects fingerprint information from the plurality of finger gestures performed with the finger. After collecting the fingerprint information, the device determines whether the collected fingerprint information is sufficient to enroll a fingerprint of the finger. When the collected fingerprint information for the finger is sufficient to enroll the fingerprint of the finger, the device enrolls the fingerprint of the finger with the device. When the collected fingerprint information for the finger is not sufficient to enroll the fingerprint of the finger, the device displays a message in the fingerprint enrollment interface prompting a user to perform one or more additional finger gestures on the fingerprint sensor with the finger.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An electronic device, comprising:
a display;
a biometric sensor;
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:
storing a set of one or more credentials;
displaying a form with a plurality of fields;
determining whether at least one field from the plurality of fields corresponds to one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials;
in accordance with a determination that at least one field corresponds to the one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials, displaying a prompt requesting an input to automatically fill in the form with the one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials;
receiving the input to automatically fill in the form with the one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials;
in response to receiving the input to automatically fill in the form:
in accordance with a determination that biometric input captured based on the input to automatically fill in the form includes a set of biometric information that is associated with a user who is authorized to use the set of one or more credentials, filling in the form with the one or more credentials; and
in accordance with a determination that the biometric input captured based on the input to automatically fill in the form includes a set of biometric information that is not associated with a user who is authorized to use the set of one or more credentials, forgoing filling in the form with the one or more credentials.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the set of one or more credentials includes one or more of: a user ID, a password, a credit card number, a bank account number, an address, a telephone number, and a shopping credential.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein filling in the form with the one or more credentials includes displaying redacted versions of the one or more credentials in one or more fields of the form.

4. The electronic device of claim 3 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the redacted versions of the one or more credentials in one or more fields of the form, detecting a respective set of biometric information using the biometric sensor; and
in response to detecting the respective set of biometric information and in accordance with a determination that the respective set of biometric information is associated with a user who is authorized to reveal the one or more credentials, displaying a non-redacted version of the one or more credentials in the fields of the form.

5. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein:
the redacted version of a respective credential includes an indication of a length of the respective credential; and
the non-redacted version of the respective credential includes a human readable version of the respective credential.

6. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein:
the redacted version of a respective credential includes a non-redacted portion of the respective credential; and
the non-redacted version of the respective credential includes a human readable version of the respective credential.

7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the determination that the set of biometric information is associated with a user who is authorized to use the set of one or more credentials includes a determination that the set of biometric information matches at least one or more enrolled sets of biometric information.

8. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the biometric sensor is a fingerprint sensor.

9. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the set of biometric information corresponds to a fingerprint.

10. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the biometric input is a finger input.

11. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the biometric sensor is separate from the display.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of an electronic device with a display and a biometric sensor, the one or more programs comprising instructions for:
storing a set of one or more credentials;
displaying a form with a plurality of fields;
determining whether at least one field from the plurality of fields corresponds to one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials;
in accordance with a determination that at least one field corresponds to the one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials, displaying a prompt requesting an input to automatically fill in the form with the one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials;
receiving the input to automatically fill in the form with the one or more credentials of the set of one or more credentials;
in response to receiving the input to automatically fill in the form:
in accordance with a determination that biometric input captured based on the input to automatically fill in the form includes a set of biometric information that is associated with a user who is authorized to use the set of one or more credentials, filling in the form with the one or more credentials; and
in accordance with a determination that the biometric input captured based on the input to automatically fill in the form includes a set of biometric information that is not associated with a user who is authorized to use the set of one or more credentials, forgoing filling in the form with the one or more credentials.

13. The medium of claim 12 , wherein the set of one or more credentials includes one or more of: a user ID, a password, a credit card number, a bank account number, an address, a telephone number, and a shopping credential.

14. The medium of claim 12 , wherein filling in the form with the one or more credentials includes displaying redacted versions of the one or more credentials in one or more fields of the form.

15. The medium of claim 14 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the redacted versions of the one or more credentials in one or more fields of the form, detecting a respective set of biometric information using the biometric sensor; and
in response to detecting the respective set of biometric information and in accordance with a determination that the respective set of biometric information is associated with a user who is authorized to reveal the one or more credentials, displaying a non-redacted version of the one or more credentials in the fields of the form.

16. The medium of claim 15 , wherein:
the redacted version of a respective credential includes an indication of a length of the respective credential; and
the non-redacted version of the respective credential includes a human readable version of the respective credential.

17. The medium of claim 15 , wherein:
the redacted version of a respective credential includes a non-redacted portion of the respective credential; and
the non-redacted version of the respective credential includes a human readable version of the respective credential.

18. The medium of claim 12 , wherein the determination that the set of biometric information is associated with a user who is authorized to use the set of one or more credentials includes a determination that the set of biometric information matches at least one or more enrolled sets of biometric information.

19. The medium of claim 12 , wherein the biometric sensor is a fingerprint sensor.
