Abstract

Media user interfaces are described, including user interfaces for capturing media (e.g., capturing a photo, recording a video), displaying media (e.g., displaying a photo, playing a video), editing media (e.g., modifying a photo, modifying a video), accessing media controls or settings (e.g., accessing controls or settings to capture photos or videos to capture videos), automatically adjusting media (e.g., automatically modifying a photo, automatically modifying a video), and automatically managing a media capture mode (e.g., a photo media capturing mode, a portrait media capturing mode, a video media capturing mode) based on a set of conditions.

First claim

1 - 399 . (canceled)

400 . A computer system, comprising:
a display device; one or more cameras; 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 device, a media capture user interface that includes a representation of a field-of-view of the one or more cameras;
while displaying, via the display device, the media capture user interface, receiving a request to capture media;
in response to receiving the request to capture media, initiating capture, via the one or more cameras, of media;
at a first time after initiating capture, via the one or more cameras, of media, detecting movement of the electronic device; and
in response to detecting movement of the electronic device at the first time after initiating capture of media:
in accordance with a determination that a set of guidance criteria is satisfied, wherein the set of guidance criteria include a criterion that is satisfied when the detected movement of the electronic device is above a movement threshold, displaying, via the display device, a visual indication of one or more differences between a pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated and a current pose of the electronic device; and
in accordance with a determination that the detected movement that the set of guidance criteria is not satisfied, forgoing display, via the display device, of the visual indication of the one or more differences between the pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated and the current pose of the electronic device.

401 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein:
the media capture user interface includes a media capture affordance; and receiving the request to capture media includes detecting a selection of the media capture affordance.

402 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein displaying the visual indication of one or more differences between the pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated and the current pose of the electronic device includes:
in accordance with a determination that the pose of the electronic device has changed in a first manner, displaying the visual indication with a first change in appearance; and in accordance with a determination that the pose of the electronic device has changed in a second manner that is different from the first manner, displaying the visual indication with a second change in appearance.

403 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein displaying the visual indication includes concurrently:
displaying the visual indication with a visual property that indicates a first difference between the pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated and the current pose of the electronic device; and displaying the visual indication with a visual property that indicates a second difference between the pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated and the current pose of the electronic device, wherein the first difference and second difference are different types of differences.

404 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein:
the visual indication includes a first portion of the visual indication that is representative of the pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated and a second portion of the visual indication that is representative of the current pose of the electronic device; and displaying the visual indication in response to detecting movement of the electronic device at the first time after initiating capture of media includes displaying at least one of the first portion and second portion of the visual indication with an appearance that changes in response to changes in the pose of the electronic device after capture of media was initiated.

405 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein:
the visual indication includes a portion of the visual indication; and displaying the visual indication in response to detecting movement of the electronic device at the first time after initiating capture of media includes displaying the portion of the visual indication rotated a first rotational amount that is determined based on an amount of rotation of the electronic device.

406 . The computer system of claim 405 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
while displaying the portion of the visual indication rotated the first rotational amount, detecting rotational movement of the electronic device at a second time after initiating capture of media; and in response to detecting rotational movement of the electronic device at the second time after initiating capture of media, rotating the portion of the visual indication a second rotational amount that is determined based on an amount of the detected rotational movement, wherein the second rotational amount is different from the first rotational amount.

407 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein:
the visual indication includes a portion of the visual indication; and displaying the visual indication in response to detecting movement of the electronic device at the first time after initiating capture of media includes displaying the portion of the visual indication with a first skew amount that is determined based on an amount of movement of the electronic device.

408 . The computer system of claim 407 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
while displaying the portion skewed the first skew amount, detecting movement of the electronic device at a third time after initiating capture of media; and in response to detecting movement of the electronic device at the third time after initiating capture of media, displaying the portion with a second skew amount, wherein the second skew amount is different from the first skew amount.

409 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein:
the visual indication includes a portion of the visual indication; and displaying the visual indication in response to detecting movement of the electronic device at the first time after initiating capture of media includes displaying the portion of the visual indication at a first position that is determined based on a position of the electronic device.

410 . The computer system of claim 409 , wherein the one or more programs further include instructions for:
while displaying the portion of the visual indication at the first position, detecting translational movement of the electronic device at a fourth time after initiating capture of media; and in response to detecting translational movement of the electronic device at the fourth time after initiating capture of media, displaying the portion of the visual indication to a second position that is determined based on translational movement of the electronic, wherein the second position is different from the first position.

411 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein the visual indication indicates the magnitude of the one or more differences.

412 . The computer system of claim 400 , wherein:
at a first time when the pose of the electronic device is different from the pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated:
the visual indication includes a first portion of the visual indication that is representative of the pose of the electronic device when capture of media was initiated is displayed at a first position on the media capture user interface; and
the visual indication includes a second portion of the visual indication that is representative of the current pose of the electronic
