Abstract

In some embodiments, an electronic device displays suggested routes based on the characteristics of respective vehicles. In some embodiments, an electronic device receives data for respective vehicles from a source external to the electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device anonymizes a vehicle identifier and determines customized suggested routes using the anonymized vehicle identifier.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method, comprising:
at an electronic device in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices:
displaying, via the display generation component, a map user interface;
while displaying the map user interface, receiving, via the one or more input devices, a first user input corresponding to a request to display directions from a first location to a second location via a given mode of transportation; and
in response to receiving the first user input:
in accordance with a determination that a first vehicle is a currently selected vehicle for which to display directions in the map user interface, displaying, in the map user interface, a first suggested route from the first location to the second location based on a first characteristic of the first vehicle; and
in accordance with a determination that a second vehicle, different from the first vehicle, is the currently selected vehicle for which to display directions in the map user interface, displaying, in the map user interface, a second suggested route from the first location to the second location, different from the first suggested route, based on a second characteristic of the second vehicle;

while navigating along the first suggested route, determining that the device has arrived at a suggested stop for increasing a remaining driving range of the first vehicle; and
in response to determining that the device has arrived at the suggested stop for increasing the remaining driving range of the first vehicle:
in accordance with a determination that an accessory of a first type is required to increase the remaining driving range of the first vehicle, displaying, via the display generation component, an indication of the accessory of the first type.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the first characteristic of the first vehicle includes a first current estimated driving range for the first vehicle;
the first suggested route is based on the first current estimated driving range;
the second characteristic of the second vehicle includes a second current estimated driving range for the second vehicle, different from the first current estimated driving range; and
the second suggested route is based on the second current estimated driving range.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein:
in accordance with a determination that the first current estimated driving range is less than a driving distance of the first suggested route from the first location to the second location, the first suggested route includes a suggested stop for increasing a remaining driving range of the first vehicle.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein:
in accordance with a determination that the first vehicle is associated with a first charging network, the suggested stop for increasing the remaining driving range of the first vehicle is a first stop associated with the first charging network.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the first characteristic of the first vehicle includes a first current estimated driving range for the first vehicle; and
the first suggested route is based on the first current estimated driving range, the method further comprising:
in response to the first user input:
in accordance with a determination that a third vehicle is currently selected for which to display directions in the map user interface, displaying, in the map user interface, a third suggested route from the first location to the second location, that is not based on a current estimated driving range for a vehicle.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
displaying the first suggested route from the first location to the second location includes displaying an estimated total travel time for the first suggested route; and
in accordance with a determination that the first suggested route includes a suggested stop for increasing a remaining driving range of the first vehicle, the estimated total travel time includes an estimated time to increase the remaining driving range of the first vehicle at the suggested stop.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
displaying, via the display generation component, one or more representations of one or more segments associated with the first suggested route, wherein a respective representation of a respective segment includes an indication of an estimated state of the first characteristic of the first vehicle during the respective segment.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
while the first vehicle is the currently selected vehicle and while displaying the first suggested route from the first location to the second location, receiving, via the one or more input devices, a user input corresponding to a request to select the second vehicle as the currently selected vehicle; and
in response to receiving the user input corresponding to the request to select the second vehicle as the currently selected vehicle, displaying, in the map user interface, the second suggested route.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
while navigating along the first suggested route, determining that the device has arrived at a suggested stop for increasing a remaining driving range for the first vehicle;
in response to determining that the device has arrived at the suggested stop for increasing an effective range of the first vehicle, displaying, via the display generation component, a first affordance to pause the navigation along the first suggested route;
while displaying the first affordance to pause the navigation, receiving, via the one or more input devices, a user input selecting the first affordance; and
in response to receiving the user input selecting the first affordance, displaying, via the display generation component:
a second affordance to resume navigating along the first suggested route; and
an indication of the first characteristic of the first vehicle while it is increasing.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
while navigating along the first suggested route, determining that a current estimated driving range for the first vehicle is less than a remaining driving distance of the first suggested route from a current location to the second location; and
in response to determining that the current estimated driving range for the first vehicle is less than the remaining driving distance of the first suggested route from the current location to the second location, updating the first suggested route to include a suggested stop for increasing a remaining driving range of the first vehicle.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the first characteristic of the first vehicle is associated with a first driving restriction for the first vehicle;
the first suggested route is based on the first driving restriction;
the second characteristic of the second vehicle is associated with a second driving restriction for the second vehicle, different from the first driving restriction; and
the second suggested route is based on the second driving restriction.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein:
the first driving restriction is determined using an anonymized characteristic corresponding to the first characteristic of the first vehicle.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the first characteristic of the first vehicle is associated with a first driving restriction for the first vehicle; and
the first suggested route is based on the first driving restriction, the method further comprising:
in response to the first user input:
in accordance with a determination that no vehicle is currently selected for which to display directions in the map user interface, displaying, in the map user interfa
