Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for editing avatars. In some embodiments, user interfaces are shown for editing an avatar and avatar stickers. In some embodiments, user interfaces are shown for editing colors of one or more avatar features.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A computer system that is in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices, 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:
displaying, via the display generation component, an avatar editing interface that includes:
a representation of a virtual avatar having a plurality of avatar features, wherein the virtual avatar is associated with a set of stickers including a first avatar sticker that shows the virtual avatar in a first pose and a second avatar sticker that shows the virtual avatar in a second pose different from the first pose; and
a first set of one or more graphical interface objects that are selectable for modifying a first avatar feature of the plurality of avatar features that are visible in the representation of the virtual avatar;

while displaying the avatar editing interface including the representation of the virtual avatar, detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input corresponding to a request to display editing options for a second avatar feature of the plurality of avatar features; and
in response to detecting the input, updating display of the avatar editing interface, including:
displaying a representation of the first avatar sticker having an appearance that includes the second avatar feature and is based on an appearance of the virtual avatar; and
displaying a second set of one or more graphical interface objects that are selectable for modifying one or more of the avatar features that are visible in the first avatar sticker.

2. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein:
the first avatar sticker that shows the virtual avatar in the first pose includes a first portion of the virtual avatar that is not visible in the representation of the virtual avatar displayed in the avatar editing interface; and
the second avatar sticker that shows the virtual avatar in the second pose includes a second portion of the virtual avatar that is not visible in the representation of the virtual avatar displayed in the avatar editing interface.

3. The computer system of claim 1 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the representation of the first avatar sticker, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a second input; and
in response to detecting the second input, displaying a representation of the second avatar sticker having an appearance that includes the second avatar feature and is based on an appearance of the virtual avatar.

4. The computer system of claim 3 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the representation of the second avatar sticker having a first appearance, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a set of one or more inputs that includes an input corresponding to a request to change an appearance of the virtual avatar; and
in response to detecting the set of one or more inputs, displaying the representation of the second avatar sticker having a second appearance different from the first appearance and based on the request to change the appearance of the virtual avatar.

5. The computer system of claim 1 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the avatar editing interface including the representation of the virtual avatar:
detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input corresponding to a request to display editing options for a third avatar feature of the plurality of avatar features; and
in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to display editing options for the third avatar feature of the plurality of avatar features, displaying a third set of one or more graphical interface objects that are selectable for modifying the third avatar feature.

6. The computer system of claim 1 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the avatar editing interface including the representation of the first avatar sticker:
detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input corresponding to a request to display editing options for a fourth avatar feature of the plurality of avatar features; and
in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to display editing options for the fourth avatar feature of the plurality of avatar features, displaying a fourth set of one or more graphical interface objects that are selectable for modifying the fourth avatar feature.

7. The computer system of claim 1 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the avatar editing interface including the representation of the virtual avatar having a first appearance of the first avatar feature, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a selection of one of the graphical interface objects in the first set of one or more graphical interface objects; and
in response to detecting the selection of one of the graphical interface objects in the first set of one or more graphical interface objects, displaying the representation of the virtual avatar having a second appearance of the first avatar feature that is different from the first appearance and based on the selected graphical interface object in the first set of one or more graphical interface objects.

8. The computer system of claim 1 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the avatar editing interface including the representation of the first avatar sticker having a first appearance of the second avatar feature, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a selection of one of the graphical interface objects in the second set of one or more graphical interface objects; and
in response to detecting the selection, displaying the representation of the first avatar sticker having a second appearance of the second avatar feature that is different from the first appearance and based on the selected graphical interface object in the second set of one or more graphical interface objects.

9. The computer system of claim 8 , wherein the second avatar feature includes avatar clothing.

10. The computer system of claim 8 , wherein the second avatar feature includes avatar arms.

11. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein displaying the avatar editing interface that includes the representation of the virtual avatar includes displaying an animation of the representation of the virtual avatar.

12. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein the animation of the representation of the virtual avatar is based on a face that is detected by one or more cameras associated with the computer system.

13. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the representation of the first avatar sticker is static.

14. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein displaying the avatar editing interface that includes the representation of the virtual avatar includes displaying the representation of the virtual avatar with a first facial pose of the virtual avatar, the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the avatar editing interface including the representation of the virtual avatar with the first facial pose of the virtual avatar, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a first input; and
in response to detecting the first input, transitioning the representation of the virtual avatar from the first facial pose of the virtual avatar to a second facial pose of the virtual avatar that is different from the first facial pose.

15. The computer system of claim 1
