Abstract

A computer system detects one or more inputs to subscribe to updates from a first application for a first event and to subscribe to updates from a second application for a second event. The system displays a user interface. Displaying the user interface includes: when the first event is active and the second event is not active, displaying a first representation of the first event in a first region of the user interface, and updating first information contained in the first representation of the first event based on updates received from the first application; and when the second event is active and the first event is not active, displaying a second representation of the second event in the first region of the user interface, and updating second information contained in the second representation of the second event based on updates received from the second application.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method, comprising:
at a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component:
detecting one or more inputs to subscribe to updates from a first application for a first event, and to subscribe to updates from a second application for a second event; and
displaying a first user interface, wherein the first user interface includes a first region at a first location in the first user interface, and wherein displaying the first user interface includes:
in accordance with a determination that the first event is active and that the second event is not active, displaying a first representation of the first event in the first region of the first user interface, and updating first information contained in the first representation of the first event in accordance with updates received from the first application for the first event; and
in accordance with a determination that the second event is active and that the first event is not active, displaying a second representation of the second event in the first region of the first user interface, and updating second information contained in the second representation of the second event in accordance with updates received from the second application for the second event;

while displaying the first representation of the first event in the first region of the first user interface in accordance with the determination that the first event is active and the second event is not active, detecting that the first event has ended; and
in response to detecting that the first event has ended, automatically, without user input, ceasing to display the first representation of the first event in the first region of the first user interface,
wherein the step of displaying the first user interface is repeated multiple times including at least one time when the first event is active and the second event is not active, and at least one time when the second event is active and the first event is not active.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the first user interface is a wake screen user interface;
the first representation of the first event is displayed in the first region while the first event is active; and
the second representation of the second event is displayed in the first region of the wake screen user interface while the second event is active.

3. The method of claim 2 , including:
while the first event is active:
at a first time, displaying the wake screen user interface with the first representation of the first event in the first region of the wake screen user interface; and
at a second time after the first time, ceasing display of the wake screen user interface in response to detecting that a first condition is met; and
at a third time after the second time, in response to detecting that a second condition is met, redisplaying the wake screen user interface with the first representation of the first event in the first region of the wake screen user interface.

4. The method of claim 1 , including:
while the first event is active:
at a fourth time, displaying the first user interface with the first representation of the first event in the first region of the first user interface, wherein the first user interface does not include notifications; and
at a fifth time later than the fourth time, displaying one or more notifications in the first user interface in response to a third condition being met, and maintaining display of the first representation of the first event in the first user interface.

5. The method of claim 1 , including:
while the first event is active:
at a sixth time, displaying the first user interface with the first representation of the first event in the first region of the first user interface; and
at a seventh time after the sixth time:
replacing display of the first user interface with display of a second user interface that includes a plurality of application icons that, when selected, cause display of corresponding applications, in response to detecting that a fourth condition is met; and
replacing display of the first representation of the first event in the first region of the first user interface with display of a third representation of the first event in a second region of the second user interface.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the one or more inputs to subscribe to updates from the first application for the first event includes:
while displaying a first notification corresponding to the first application, detecting a first set of inputs directed to the first notification, wherein the first set of inputs meet respective criteria for subscribing to updates from the first application for the first event.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting the one or more inputs to subscribe to updates from the second application for the second event includes:
while displaying one or more search results corresponding to a search input, including a first search result that corresponds to the second application, detecting a second set of inputs directed to the first search result, wherein the second set of inputs meet respective criteria for subscribing to updates from the second application for the second event.

8. The method of claim 1 , including:
while displaying a respective user interface of a third application, the respective user interface including a respective affordance for subscribing to updates from the third application for a third event, detecting selection of the respective affordance for subscribing to updates from the third application for the third event; and
in accordance with a determination that the third event is active, displaying a third representation of the third event in the first region of the first user interface, and updating information contained in the third representation of the third event in accordance with updates received from the third application for the third event.

9. The method of claim 1 , including, in accordance with a determination that a user of the computer system has enabled an option for automatic subscription, automatically subscribing to updates from a fourth application for a fourth event in response to detecting that a fifth condition has been met.

10. The method of claim 1 , including, in accordance with a determination that past user behavior meets one or more subscription criteria, automatically subscribing to updates from a fifth application for a fifth event.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the first application is a rideshare application and the first event is an instance of a respective ride requested in the rideshare application; and
the first information contained in the first representation of the first event that is updated in accordance with updates received from the first application for the first event includes location information of the respective ride requested in the rideshare application.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the first application is a delivery application and the first event is an instance of a respective delivery requested in the delivery application; and
the first information contained in the first representation of the first event that is updated in accordance with updates received from the first application for the first event includes delivery information of the respective delivery requested in the delivery application.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the second application is a sports application and the second event is an instance of a game reported by the sports application; and
the second information contained in the second representation of the second event that is updated in accordance with
