Abstract

The present disclosure relates to devices and processes for monitoring attributes of a user's physical activity (e.g., workout) or inactivity, and to user interfaces (e.g., an activity indicator) for displaying the same. In some examples, a device determines whether physical activity corresponds to a first type based on a first set of criteria, and whether physical activity corresponds to a second type based on a second set of criteria. In some examples, the device controls an inactivity timer that measures user's inactivity. In some examples, the device displays a first visual representation of an attribute or amount of a first type of physical activity, and a second visual representation of an attribute or amount of a second type. In some examples, the device displays a third visual representation of an attribute or amount of a third type of activity. In some examples, the third visual representation corresponds to user's inactivity.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electronic device, comprising:
a display;
one or more processors;
a memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
receiving historical activity data representing physical activity performed by a user;
concurrently displaying:
an aggregated view of the historical activity data, wherein the aggregated view includes:
an activity indicator comprising:
 a first indicator including a first completed portion representative of an aggregate amount of a first type of physical activity performed by a user during a period of time, wherein the first completed portion of the first indicator is displayed in relation to a first goal amount corresponding to the first type of physical activity, and wherein:
 in accordance with a determination that the aggregate amount of the first type of physical activity is greater than the first goal amount, displaying a leading edge of the first completed portion of the first indicator as overlapping at least a portion of the first completed portion; and
 a second indicator including a second completed portion representative of an aggregate amount of a second type of physical activity performed by the user during the period of time, wherein the second completed portion of the second indicator is displayed in relation to a second goal amount corresponding to the second type of physical activity; and
 a third indicator including a third completed portion representative of an aggregate amount of a third type of physical activity performed by the user during the period of time, wherein the third completed portion of the third indicator is displayed in relation to a third goal amount corresponding to the third type of physical activity, and wherein the first indicator, the second indicator, and the third indicator are concurrently displayed as concentric, continuous rings.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the aggregate amount of the first type of physical activity comprises an amount of Calories expended by the user in performing the first type of physical activity over a period of time.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the aggregate amount of the second type of physical activity comprises a number of minutes spent by the user in performing the second type of physical activity over the period of time.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the aggregate amount of the third type of physical activity comprises a number of segments of time during which the user performed the third type of physical activity over the period of time.

5. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein the segments of time comprise hour-long segments of time.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the period of time comprises a day.

7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the aggregated view includes a first partition that includes a first graphical representation of a physical activity selected from one of the first, the second, and the third type of physical activity and a first alphanumeric representation corresponding to the first graphical representation, wherein the first graphical representation of the physical activity is visually separate from the first indicator, the second indicator, and the third indicator, the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while displaying the aggregated view of the historical activity data, detecting a scrolling input; and
in response to detecting the scrolling input:
ceasing to display at least a portion of the activity indicator; and
displaying a second partition that includes a second graphical representation of physical activity selected from one of the first, second, or third type of physical activity and a second alphanumeric representation corresponding to the second graphical representation, wherein the physical activity corresponding to the first partition is visually separate from the physical activity corresponding to the second partition; and

wherein the first graphical representation of the physical activity in the first partition includes a textual representation of the aggregate amount of the first type of physical activity performed by the user during the period of time and a graph representation of the first type of physical activity performed by the user during the period of time; and
wherein the second graphical representation of the physical activity in the second partition includes a textual representation of the aggregate amount of the second type of physical activity performed by the user during the period of time and a graph representation of the second type of physical activity performed by the user during the period of time.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
receiving a selection of the first partition or the second partition; and
in response to receiving the selection of the first partition or the second partition, replacing the selected partition with an alternate view of the selected partition.

9. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the alternate view of the selected partition comprises additional information from that displayed within the selected partition.

10. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the aggregated view of the historical activity data further comprises a workout partition associated with a workout performed by the user.

11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the workout partition comprises:
a textual description of the workout;
a textual representation of a time spent performing the workout;
a textual representation of a number of Calories expended performing the workout; and
a graph representation of an attribute of the workout.

12. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the aggregated view of the historical activity data further comprises a reward partition comprising one or more rewards obtained by the user during the period of time.

13. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the aggregated view of the historical activity data further comprises a summary partition comprising a textual representation of a number of steps taken by the user and a distance traveled by the user during the period of time.

14. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first indicator, the second indicator, and the third indicator are concentric rings.

15. The electronic device of claim 1 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
receiving a request to view a monthly aggregated view of the historical activity data for a month; and
in response to receiving the request to view the monthly aggregated view of the historical activity data for the month, displaying the monthly aggregated view of the historical activity data for the month.

16. The electronic device of claim 15 , wherein the monthly aggregated view of the historical activity data for the month comprises:
one or more daily activity indicators, wherein each of the one or more daily activity indicators is associated with a day of the month, and wherein each of the one or more daily activity indicators comprises:
a first indicator representative of an aggregate amount of a first type of physical activity performed by the user during the associated day;
a second indicator representative of an aggregate amount of a second type of physical activity performed by the user during the associated day; and
a third indicator representative of an aggregate amount of a third type of physical activity performed by the user during the associated day.
