Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces. In some examples, the electronic device transitions between user interfaces for capturing photos based on data received from a first camera and a second camera. In some examples, the electronic device provides enhanced zooming capabilities that result in visual pleasing results for a displayed digital viewfinder and for captured videos. In some examples, the electronic device provides user interfaces for transitioning a digital viewfinder between a first camera with an applied digital zoom to a second camera with no digital zoom. In some examples, the electronic device prepares to capture media at various magnification levels. In some examples, the electronic device enhanced capabilities for navigating through a plurality of values.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electronic device, comprising:
one or more cameras;
a display generation component;
one or more processors; and
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:
displaying, via the display generation component, a user interface for capturing an image based on data received from the one or more cameras, including:
a digital viewfinder based on data from the one or more cameras;
one or more user interface elements displayed at a first interface orientation relative to the electronic device; and
a user interface element, different from the one or more user interface elements, for changing a magnification level of the digital viewfinder, wherein the user interface element for changing the magnification level includes one or more indications of a set of one or more magnification levels, and wherein the one or more indications of the set of one or more magnification levels are displayed at a first set of one or more respective locations and at the first interface orientation relative to the electronic device;

while displaying, via the display generation component, the user interface for capturing an image, detecting a rotation of the electronic device from a first device orientation to a second device orientation; and
in response to detecting the rotation of the electronic device, displaying, via the display generation component, the user interface for capturing an image including:
the one or more user interface elements at the first interface orientation relative to the electronic device; and
the one or more indications of the set of one or more magnification levels at the first set of one or more respective locations within the user interface for capturing an image and at a second interface orientation relative to the electronic device, different from the first interface orientation.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first device orientation is a portrait orientation, and the second device orientation is a landscape orientation.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first device orientation corresponds to the first interface orientation and the second device orientation corresponds to the second interface orientation.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein a respective indication of the one or more indications of the set of one or more magnification levels corresponds to an optical zoom level.

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein a respective indication of the one or more indications of the set of one or more magnification levels corresponds to a digital zoom level.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the data based on the one or more cameras corresponds to a field of view of the one or more cameras.

7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the user interface for capturing an image includes one or more camera capture mode affordances, that, when activated, cause the electronic device to transition from a first capture mode to a second capture mode.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while the electronic device is at the first device orientation, displaying, via the display generation component, the one or more camera capture mode affordances at the first interface orientation relative to the electronic device and at a second set of one or more respective locations; and
in response to detecting the rotation of the electronic device, displaying, via the display generation component, the one or more camera capture mode affordances at the first interface orientation relative to the electronic device and at the second set of one or more respective locations.

9. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the user interface for capturing an image includes a camera shutter affordance, that, when activated, initiates capturing data from the one or more cameras.

10. The electronic device of claim 9 , the one or more programs further including instructions for:
while the electronic device is at the first device orientation, displaying, via the display generation component, the camera shutter affordance at a respective location relative to a respective portion of the electronic device; and
in response to detecting the rotation of the electronic device, displaying the camera shutter affordance at the respective location relative to the respective portion of the electronic device.

11. 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 one or more cameras and a display generation component, the one or more programs including instructions for:
displaying, via the display generation component, a user interface for capturing an image based on data received from the one or more cameras, including:
a digital viewfinder based on data from the one or more cameras;
one or more user interface elements displayed at a first interface orientation relative to the electronic device; and
a user interface element, different from the one or more user interface elements, for changing a magnification level of the digital viewfinder, wherein the user interface element for changing the magnification level includes one or more indications of a set of one or more magnification levels, and wherein the one or more indications of the set of one or more magnification levels are displayed at a first set of one or more respective locations and at the first interface orientation relative to the electronic device;

while displaying, via the display generation component, the user interface for capturing an image, detecting a rotation of the electronic device from a first device orientation to a second device orientation; and
in response to detecting the rotation of the electronic device, displaying, via the display generation component, the user interface for capturing an image including:
the one or more user interface elements at the first interface orientation relative to the electronic device; and
the one or more indications of the set of one or more magnification levels at the first set of one or more respective locations within the user interface for capturing an image and at a second interface orientation relative to the electronic device, different from the first interface orientation.

12. A method, comprising:
at an electronic device with one or more cameras and a display generation component:
displaying, via the display generation component, a user interface for capturing an image based on data received from the one or more cameras, including:
a digital viewfinder based on data from the one or more cameras;
one or more user interface elements displayed at a first interface orientation relative to the electronic device; and
a user interface element, different from the one or more user interface elements, for changing a magnification level of the digital viewfinder, wherein the user interface element for changing the magnification level includes one or more indications of a set of one or more magnification levels, and wherein the one or more indications of the set of one or more magnification levels are displayed at a first set of one or more respective locations and at the first interface orientation relative to the electronic device;

while displaying, via the display generation component, the user interface for capturing an image, detecting a rotation of the electronic device from a first device orientation to a second device orientation; and
in response to detecting the rotation of the electronic device, displaying, via the display
