The following description describes exemplary methods, parameters, and the like. It should be recognized, however, that such description is not intended as a limitation on the scope of the present disclosure, but rather is provided as a description of exemplary embodiments.

There is a need for electronic devices that provide efficient methods and interfaces for managing shared content sessions. Such techniques can reduce the cognitive burden on users accessing content in a shared content session, thereby increasing productivity. Furthermore, such techniques can reduce processor and battery power that is otherwise wasted on redundant user input.

1A-1B, 2, 3, 4A-4B, and 5A-5C provide a description of an exemplary device for performing techniques for managing a shared content session. FIGS. 6A-6EQ show exemplary user interfaces for managing a shared content session. FIGS. 7-13 and 17-18 are flow diagrams illustrating a method for managing a shared content session according to some embodiments. The user interfaces of FIGS. 6A-6EQ are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes of FIGS. 7-13 and 17-18. FIGS. 14A-14AG show exemplary user interfaces for managing a shared content session. FIGS. 15-16 are flow diagrams illustrating a method for managing a shared content session according to some embodiments. The user interfaces of FIGS. 14A-14AG are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes of FIGS. 15-16. FIGS. 19A-19AB show exemplary user interfaces for managing a shared content session. FIGS. 20A-20B are flow diagrams illustrating a method for managing a shared content session according to some embodiments. The user interfaces of Figures 19A-19AB are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes of Figures 20A-20B.

The processes described below enhance usability of the device and streamline the user-device interface (e.g., by helping the user provide appropriate inputs and reduce user errors when operating/interacting with the device) through a variety of techniques, including providing improved visual feedback to the user, reducing the number of inputs required to perform an action, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional controls that are displayed, performing an action without requiring further user input when a set of conditions is met, and/or other techniques. These techniques also reduce power usage and improve the device's battery life by allowing the user to use the device more quickly and efficiently.

Furthermore, in methods described herein in which one or more steps are conditioned on one or more conditions being met, it should be understood that the described method can be repeated in multiple iterations such that over the course of the iterations, all of the conditions on which the steps of the method are conditioned are met in different iterations of the method. For example, if a method requires performing a first step if a condition is met and performing a second step if the condition is not met, one skilled in the art would understand that the steps recited in the claim are repeated in a particular order until the conditions are met and are no longer met. Thus, a method described with one or more steps that depend on one or more conditions being met can be rewritten as a method that is repeated until each condition recited in the method is met. However, this is not required for system or computer readable medium claims in which the system or computer readable medium includes instructions for performing a conditional action based on the satisfaction of the corresponding one or more conditions, and thus can determine whether a contingency is met without explicitly repeating the steps of the method until all conditions on which the steps of the method are conditioned are met. Those skilled in the art will also appreciate that, as with methods having conditional steps, the system or computer-readable storage medium may repeat the steps of the method as many times as necessary to ensure that all of the conditional steps have been performed.

In the following description, terms such as "first" and "second" are used to describe various elements, but these elements should not be limited by these terms. In some embodiments, these terms are used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first touch can be referred to as a second touch, and similarly, a second touch can be referred to as a first touch, without departing from the scope of various embodiments described. In some embodiments, the first touch and the second touch are two separate references to the same touch. In some embodiments, the first touch and the second touch are both touches, but they are not the same touch.

The terminology used in the description of the various embodiments described herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. In the description of the various embodiments described and in the appended claims, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. It should also be understood that as used herein, the term "and/or" refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms "includes," "including," "comprises," and/or "comprising," as used herein, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.

The term "if" is, optionally, interpreted as meaning "when" or "upon" or "in response to determining" or "in response to detecting" depending on the context. Similarly, the phrases "if it is determined" or "if [a stated condition or event] is detected" are, optionally, interpreted as meaning "upon determining" or "in response to determining" or "upon detecting [the stated condition or event]" or "in response to detecting [the stated condition or event]" depending on the context.

Embodiments of electronic devices, user interfaces for such devices, and associated processes for using such devices are described. In some embodiments, the device is a portable communication device, such as a mobile phone, that also includes other functions, such as a PDA function and/or a music player function. Exemplary embodiments of portable multifunction devices include, but are not limited to, iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad devices from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif. Optionally, other portable electronic devices, such as laptop computers or tablet computers having a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchscreen display and/or a touchpad), are also used. It should also be understood that in some embodiments, the device is not a portable communication device, but a desktop computer having a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchscreen display and/or a touchpad). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system in communication (e.g., via wired communication, via wireless communication) with a display generating component. The display generating component is configured to provide a visual output, such as a display via a CRT display, a display via an LED display, or a display via image projection. In some embodiments, the display generation components are integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the display generation components are separate from the computer system. As used herein, "displaying" content includes causing content (e.g., video data rendered or decoded by display controller 156) to be displayed by transmitting data (e.g., image data or video data) over a wired or wireless connection to an integrated or external display generation component to visually generate the content.

The following discussion describes an electronic device that includes a display and a touch-sensitive surface. However, it should be understood that the electronic device optionally includes one or more other physical user-interface devices, such as a physical keyboard, a mouse, and/or a joystick.

The device typically supports a variety of applications, such as one or more of drawing applications, presentation applications, word processing applications, website creation applications, disc authoring applications, spreadsheet applications, gaming applications, telephony applications, video conferencing applications, email applications, instant messaging applications, training support applications, photo management applications, digital camera applications, digital video camera applications, web browsing applications, digital music player applications, and/or digital video player applications.

The various applications executing on the device optionally use at least one common physical user interface device, such as a touch-sensitive surface. One or more features of the touch-sensitive surface and corresponding information displayed on the device are optionally adjusted and/or changed for each application and/or within individual applications. In this manner, the common physical architecture of the device (such as the touch-sensitive surface) optionally supports various applications with user interfaces that are intuitive and transparent to the user.

Attention is now directed to an embodiment of a portable device with a touch-sensitive display. FIG. 1A is a block diagram illustrating a portable multifunction device 100 having a touch-sensitive display system 112, according to some embodiments. Touch-sensitive display 112 may be conveniently referred to as a "touch screen" and may also be known or referred to as a "touch-sensitive display system." Device 100 includes memory 102 (optionally including one or more computer-readable storage media), memory controller 122, one or more processing units (CPUs) 120, peripherals interface 118, RF circuitry 108, audio circuitry 110, speaker 111, microphone 113, input/output (I/O) subsystem 106, other input control devices 116, and external port 124. Device 100 optionally includes one or more optical sensors 164. Device 100 optionally includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, such as touch-sensitive display system 112 of device 100) that detect the intensity of a contact on device 100. Device 100 optionally includes one or more tactile output generators 167 that generate tactile output on device 100 (e.g., generate tactile output on a touch-sensitive surface such as touch-sensitive display system 112 of device 100 or touchpad 355 of device 300). These components optionally communicate over one or more communication buses or signal lines 103.

As used herein and in the claims, the term "intensity" of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface refers to the force or pressure (force per unit area) of a contact (e.g., a finger contact) on the touch-sensitive surface, or a proxy for the force or pressure of a contact on the touch-sensitive surface. The intensity of a contact has a range of values including at least four distinct values, and more typically including hundreds (e.g., at least 256) distinct values. The intensity of a contact is optionally determined (or measured) using various techniques and various sensors or combinations of sensors. For example, one or more force sensors under or adjacent to the touch-sensitive surface are optionally used to measure the force at various points on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, the force measurements from multiple force sensors are combined (e.g., weighted averaged) to determine an estimated force of the contact. Similarly, a pressure-sensitive tip of a stylus is optionally used to determine the pressure of the stylus on the touch-sensitive surface. Alternatively, the size and/or change of the contact area detected on the touch-sensitive surface, the capacitance and/or change of the touch-sensitive surface proximate the contact, and/or the resistance and/or change of the touch-sensitive surface proximate the contact are optionally used as a surrogate for the force or pressure of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface. In some implementations, the surrogate measure of the force or pressure of the contact is used directly to determine whether an intensity threshold is exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is described in units corresponding to the surrogate measure). In some implementations, the surrogate measure of the contact force or pressure is converted to an estimate of the force or pressure, and the estimate of the force or pressure is used to determine whether an intensity threshold is exceeded (e.g., the intensity threshold is a pressure threshold measured in units of pressure). Using the intensity of the contact as an attribute of user input allows a user to access additional device functionality (e.g., on a touch-sensitive display) and/or receive user input (e.g., via a touch-sensitive display, a touch-sensitive surface, or a physical/mechanical control such as a knob or button) that may not otherwise be accessible to the user on a device of reduced size with limited footprint for displaying affordances.

As used herein and in the claims, the term "tactile output" refers to a physical displacement of a device relative to a previous position of the device, a physical displacement of a component of the device (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface) relative to another component of the device (e.g., a housing), or a displacement of a component relative to the center of mass of the device, that is detected by a user with the user's sense of touch. For example, in a situation where a device or a component of a device is in contact with a touch-sensitive user surface (e.g., the fingers, palm, or other part of the user's hand), the tactile output generated by the physical displacement will be interpreted by the user as a tactile sensation corresponding to a perceived change in a physical characteristic of the device or a component of the device. For example, movement of a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display or trackpad) is optionally interpreted by the user as a "down-click" or "up-click" of a physical actuator button. In some cases, the user feels a tactile sensation such as a "down-click" or "up-click" even when there is no movement of a physical actuator button associated with the touch-sensitive surface that is physically pressed (e.g., displaced) by the user's action. As another example, movement of the touch-sensitive surface is optionally interpreted or sensed by a user as "roughness" of the touch-sensitive surface, even when there is no change in the smoothness of the touch-sensitive surface. Such user interpretation of touch depends on the user's personal sensory perception, but there are many sensory perceptions of touch that are common to a majority of users. Thus, when a tactile output is described as corresponding to a particular sensory perception of a user (e.g., "up click," "down click," "roughness"), unless otherwise noted, the generated tactile output corresponds to a physical displacement of the device, or a component of the device, that produces the described sensory perception of a typical (or average) user.

It should be understood that device 100 is merely one example of a portable multifunction device, and that device 100 may optionally have more or fewer components than those shown, may optionally combine two or more components, or may optionally have a different configuration or arrangement of its components. The various components shown in FIG. 1A may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of both hardware and software, including one or more signal processing circuits and/or application specific integrated circuits.

Memory 102 optionally includes high-speed random access memory, and optionally includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid-state memory devices. Memory controller 122 optionally controls access to memory 102 by other components of device 100.

The peripheral interface 118 can be used to couple input and output peripherals of the device to the CPU 120 and memory 102. The one or more processors 120 operate or execute various software programs (e.g., computer programs (including instructions)) and/or instruction sets stored in the memory 102 to perform various functions and process data for the device 100. In some embodiments, the peripheral interface 118, the CPU 120, and the memory controller 122 are optionally implemented on a single chip, such as the chip 104. In some other embodiments, they are optionally implemented on separate chips.

The radio frequency (RF) circuitry 108 transmits and receives RF signals, also called electromagnetic signals. The RF circuitry 108 converts electrical signals to electromagnetic signals or electromagnetic signals to electrical signals and communicates with communication networks and other communication devices via electromagnetic signals. The RF circuitry 108 optionally includes well-known circuits for performing these functions, including, but not limited to, an antenna system, an RF transceiver, one or more amplifiers, a tuner, one or more oscillators, a digital signal processor, a CODEC chipset, a subscriber identity module (SIM) card, a memory, and the like. The RF circuitry 108 optionally communicates with networks, such as the Internet, also called the World Wide Web (WWW), an intranet, and/or wireless networks, such as cellular telephone networks, wireless local area networks (LANs) and/or metropolitan area networks (MANs), and with other devices, by wireless communication. RF circuitry 108 optionally includes well-known circuitry for detecting a near field communication (NFC) field, such as by a short-range communication radio. The wireless communication is optionally selected from, but is not limited to, Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), Enhanced Data GSM Environment (EDGE), high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), high-speed uplink packet access (HSUPA), Evolution, Data-Only (EV-DO), HSPA, HSPA+, Dual-Cell HSPA (DC-HSPADA), long term evolution (LTE), Near Field Communication (NFC), wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA), code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy (BTLE), Wireless Fidelity (WF), and the like. Fidelity, Wi-Fi) (e.g., IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11n, and/or IEEE 802.11ac), voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), Wi-MAX, protocols for email (e.g., Internet message access protocol (IMAP) and/or post office protocol (POP)), instant messaging (e.g., extensible messaging and presence protocol (XMPP), Session Initiation Protocol for Instant Messaging and Presence Leveraging Extensions (SIMPLE), Instant Messaging and Presence Service (IMPS)), and/or Short Message Service (SMSP)). Use any of a number of communications standards, protocols, and technologies, including SMS (Single-Stop Service), or any other suitable communications protocol, including communications protocols not yet developed as of the filing date of this application.

The audio circuit 110, speaker 111, and microphone 113 provide an audio interface between the user and the device 100. The audio circuit 110 receives audio data from the peripherals interface 118, converts the audio data into an electrical signal, and transmits the electrical signal to the speaker 111. The speaker 111 converts the electrical signal into human audible sound waves. The audio circuit 110 also receives an electrical signal converted from the sound wave by the microphone 113. The audio circuit 110 converts the electrical signal into audio data and transmits the audio data to the peripherals interface 118 for processing. The audio data is optionally retrieved from and/or transmitted to the memory 102 and/or the RF circuit 108 by the peripherals interface 118. In some embodiments, the audio circuit 110 also includes a headset jack (e.g., 212 in FIG. 2). The headset jack provides an interface between the audio circuitry 110 and a detachable audio input/output peripheral, such as an output-only headphone or a headset with both an output (e.g., one-ear or binaural headphones) and an input (e.g., a microphone).

The I/O subsystem 106 couples input/output peripherals on the device 100, such as the touch screen 112 and other input control devices 116, to the peripheral interface 118. The I/O subsystem 106 optionally includes a display controller 156, an optical sensor controller 158, a depth camera controller 169, an intensity sensor controller 159, a haptic feedback controller 161, and one or more input controllers 160 for other input or control devices. The one or more input controllers 160 receive/send electrical signals from/to the other input control devices 116. The other input control devices 116 optionally include physical buttons (e.g., push buttons, rocker buttons, etc.), dials, slider switches, joysticks, click wheels, etc. In some embodiments, the input controller(s) 160 are optionally coupled to any of (or none of) a keyboard, an infrared port, a USB port, and a pointer device such as a mouse. The one or more buttons (e.g., 208 in FIG. 2 ) optionally include up/down buttons for volume control of speaker 111 and/or microphone 113. The one or more buttons optionally include push buttons (e.g., 206 in FIG. 2 ). In some embodiments, the electronic device is a computer system in communication (e.g., via wireless communication over wired communication) with one or more input devices. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices include a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a trackpad as part of a touch-sensitive display). In some embodiments, the one or more input devices include one or more camera sensors (e.g., one or more optical sensors 164 and/or one or more depth camera sensors 175), such as for tracking user gestures (e.g., hand gestures and/or air gestures) as input. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are integrated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the one or more input devices are separate from the computer system. In some embodiments, an air gesture is a gesture that is detected without the user touching an input element that is part of the device (or independent of an input element that is part of the device) and is based on detected movements of a part of the user's body, including movements of the user's body relative to an absolute reference (e.g., the angle of the user's arm relative to the ground, or the distance of the user's hand relative to the ground), movements of the user's body relative to another part of the user's body (e.g., movements of the user's hand relative to the user's shoulder, movements of the user's other hand relative to one of the user's hands, and/or movements of the user's fingers relative to another finger or part of the user's hand), and/or absolute movements of a part of the user's body (e.g., a tap gesture that includes movements of the hand in a predetermined pose by a predetermined amount and/or speed, or a shake gesture that includes rotation of a part of the user's body at a predetermined speed or amount).

A quick press of the push button optionally unlocks the touch screen 112 or optionally initiates a process to unlock the device using gestures on the touch screen, as described in U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 11/322,549, filed December 23, 2005, entitled "Unlocking a Device by Performing Gestures on an Unlock Image," U.S. Patent No. 7,657,849, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. A longer press of the push button (e.g., 206) optionally turns power on or off to the device 100. The functionality of one or more of the buttons is optionally customizable by the user. The touch screen 112 is used to implement virtual or soft buttons and one or more soft keyboards.

The touch-sensitive display 112 provides an input and output interface between the device and a user. The display controller 156 receives and/or transmits electrical signals from and to the touch screen 112. The touch screen 112 displays visual output to the user. This visual output optionally includes graphics, text, icons, video, and any combination thereof (collectively "graphics"). In some embodiments, some or all of the visual output optionally corresponds to user interface objects.

Touchscreen 112 has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor, or set of sensors that accepts input from a user based on haptic and/or tactile contact. Touchscreen 112 and display controller 156 (along with any associated modules and/or instruction sets in memory 102) detects contacts (and any movement or breaking of contacts) on touchscreen 112 and translates the detected contacts into interactions with user interface objects (e.g., one or more soft keys, icons, web pages, or images) displayed on touchscreen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, the point of contact between touchscreen 112 and the user corresponds to the user's finger.

Touch screen 112 optionally uses LCD (liquid crystal display), LPD (light emitting polymer display), or LED (light emitting diode) technology, although other display technologies are used in other embodiments. Touch screen 112 and display controller 156 optionally detect contact and any movement or interruption thereof using any of a number of touch sensing technologies now known or later developed, including, but not limited to, capacitive, resistive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave technologies, as well as other proximity sensor arrays or other elements that determine one or more points of contact with touch screen 112. In an exemplary embodiment, projected mutual capacitance sensing technology is used, such as that found in the iPhone® and iPod Touch® from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.

The touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of touchscreen 112 is optionally similar to the multi-touch-sensing touchpad described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,323,846 (Westerman et al.), 6,570,557 (Westerman et al.), and/or 6,677,932 (Westerman), and/or U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2002/0015024 (A1), each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. However, whereas touchscreen 112 displays visual output from device 100, a touch-sensitive touchpad does not provide visual output.

The touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of the touch screen 112 is described in the following applications: (1) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/381,313, filed May 2, 2006, entitled "Multipoint Touch Surface Controller"; (2) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/840,862, filed May 6, 2004, entitled "Multipoint Touchscreen"; (3) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/903,964, filed July 30, 2004, entitled "Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices"; and (4) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/048,264, filed January 31, 2005, entitled "Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices." "Mode-Based Graphical User Interfaces For Touch Sensitive Input Devices", (5) U.S. Patent Application No. 11/038,590, filed January 18, 2005, "Mode-Based Graphical User Interfaces For Touch Sensitive Input Devices", (6) U.S. Patent Application No. 11/228,758, filed September 16, 2005, "Virtual Input Device Placement On A Touch Screen User Interface", (7) U.S. Patent Application No. 11/228,700, filed September 16, 2005, "Operation Of A Computer With A Touch (8) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/228,737, filed Sep. 16, 2005, entitled "Activating Virtual Keys Of A Touch-Screen Virtual Keyboard," and (9) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/367,749, filed Mar. 3, 2006, entitled "Multi-Functional Hand-Held Device." All of these applications are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

The touch screen 112 optionally has a video resolution of greater than 100 dpi. In some embodiments, the touch screen has a video resolution of approximately 160 dpi. The user optionally contacts the touch screen 112 using any suitable object or appendage, such as a stylus, finger, etc. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to operate primarily using finger-based contacts and gestures, which may not be as precise as stylus-based input due to the larger contact area of a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device translates the rough finger input into precise pointer/cursor positions or commands to perform the action desired by the user.

In some embodiments, in addition to the touchscreen, device 100 optionally includes a touchpad for activating or deactivating certain functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of the device that, unlike the touchscreen, does not display visual output. The touchpad is optionally a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from touchscreen 112 or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touchscreen.

The device 100 also includes a power system 162 that provides power to the various components. The power system 162 optionally includes a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., battery, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, a power outage detection circuit, a power converter or inverter, a power status indicator (e.g., a light emitting diode (LED)), and any other components associated with the generation, management, and distribution of power within the portable device.

Device 100 also optionally includes one or more optical sensors 164. FIG. 1A shows an optical sensor coupled to optical sensor controller 158 in I/O subsystem 106. Optical sensor 164 optionally includes a charge-coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. Optical sensor 164 receives light from the environment projected through one or more lenses and converts the light into data representing an image. Optical sensor 164 optionally captures still images or video in conjunction with imaging module 143 (also called a camera module). In some embodiments, the optical sensor is located on the back side of device 100 opposite touchscreen display 112 on the front side of the device, so that the touchscreen display can be used as a viewfinder for still image and/or video capture. In some embodiments, the optical sensor is located on the front side of the device such that an image of the user is optionally captured for the video conference while the user views other video conference participants on the touchscreen display. In some embodiments, the position of the optical sensor 164 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and sensor within the device housing), so that a single optical sensor 164 is used for both video conferencing and still image and/or video capture in conjunction with a touch screen display.

Optionally, device 100 also includes one or more depth camera sensors 175. FIG. 1A shows a depth camera sensor coupled to depth camera controller 169 in I/O subsystem 106. Depth camera sensor 175 receives data from the environment to create a three-dimensional model of an object (e.g., a face) in a scene from a viewpoint (e.g., depth camera sensor). In some embodiments, in conjunction with imaging module 143 (also called camera module), depth camera sensor 175 is optionally used to determine a depth map of different portions of an image captured by imaging module 143. In some embodiments, a depth camera sensor is located on the front of device 100 to obtain an image of the user with depth information for a video conference and to capture a selfie image with depth map data while the user is viewing other video conference participants on the touch screen display. In some embodiments, depth camera sensor 175 is located on the back of the device, or on the back and front of device 100. In some embodiments, the position of the depth camera sensor 175 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and sensor within the device housing), so that the depth camera sensor 175 is used for both video conferencing and still image and/or video capture in conjunction with a touch screen display.

Device 100 also optionally includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165. FIG. 1A shows a contact intensity sensor coupled to intensity sensor controller 159 in I/O subsystem 106. Contact intensity sensor 165 optionally includes one or more piezoresistive strain gauges, capacitive force sensors, electrical force sensors, piezoelectric force sensors, optical force sensors, capacitive touch-sensitive surfaces, or other intensity sensors (e.g., sensors used to measure the force (or pressure) of a contact on a touch-sensitive surface). Contact intensity sensor 165 receives contact intensity information (e.g., pressure information, or a proxy for pressure information) from the environment. In some embodiments, at least one contact intensity sensor is juxtaposed with or proxied to a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112). In some embodiments, at least one contact intensity sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touch screen display 112, which is located on the front of device 100.

Device 100 also optionally includes one or more proximity sensors 166. Figure 1A shows proximity sensor 166 coupled to peripherals interface 118. Alternatively, proximity sensor 166 is optionally coupled to input controller 160 within I/O subsystem 106. The proximity sensor 166 may optionally be a sensor that is adapted to detect a range of motions, such as those described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/241,839, entitled "Proximity Detector In Handheld Device," Ser. No. 11/240,788, entitled "Proximity Detector In Handheld Device," Ser.

No. 11/586,862, entitled "Automated Response To And Sensing Of User Activity In Portable Device," all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. The multifunction device functions as described in U.S. Pat. No. 11/638,251, entitled "Methods and Systems For Automatic Configuration Of Peripherals." In some embodiments, when the multifunction device is placed near the user's ear (e.g., when the user is making a phone call), the proximity sensor turns off and disables the touchscreen 112.

Device 100 also optionally includes one or more tactile output generators 167. FIG. 1A shows a tactile output generator coupled to tactile feedback controller 161 in I/O subsystem 106. Tactile output generator 167 optionally includes one or more electroacoustic devices, such as speakers or other audio components, and/or electromechanical devices that convert energy into linear motion, such as motors, solenoids, electroactive polymers, piezoelectric actuators, electrostatic actuators, or other tactile output generating components (e.g., components that convert electrical signals into tactile output on the device). Contact intensity sensor 165 receives tactile feedback generation commands from tactile feedback module 133 and generates a tactile output on device 100 that can be sensed by a user of device 100. In some embodiments, at least one tactile output generator is juxtaposed with or proximate to a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112) and generates a tactile output, optionally by moving the touch-sensitive surface vertically (e.g., in/out of the surface of device 100) or horizontally (e.g., back and forth in the same plane as the surface of device 100). In some embodiments, at least one tactile output generator sensor is located on the back of device 100, opposite touchscreen display 112, which is located on the front of device 100.

Device 100 also optionally includes one or more accelerometers 168. Figure 1A shows accelerometer 168 coupled to peripherals interface 118. Alternatively, accelerometer 168 is optionally coupled to input controller 160 in I/O subsystem 106.

In some embodiments, information is displayed on the touchscreen display in portrait or landscape orientation based on analysis of data received from one or more accelerometers. In addition to the accelerometer(s) 168, the device 100 optionally includes a magnetometer and a GPS (or GLONASS or other global navigation system) receiver for obtaining information regarding the location and orientation (e.g., vertical or horizontal) of the device 100.

In some embodiments, the software components stored in memory 102 include an operating system 126, a communication module (or instruction set) 128, a touch/motion module (or instruction set) 130, a graphics module (or instruction set) 132, a text input module (or instruction set) 134, a Global Positioning System (GPS) module (or instruction set) 135, and an application (or instruction set) 136. Additionally, in some embodiments, memory 102 (FIG. 1A) or 370 (FIG. 3) stores device/global internal state 157, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 3. Device/global internal state 157 includes one or more of an active application state indicating which applications, if any, are currently active; a display state indicating which applications, views, or other information occupy various regions of touchscreen display 112; a sensor state including information obtained from various sensors and input control devices 116 of the device; and location information regarding the location and/or orientation of the device.

Operating system 126 (e.g., Darwin, RTXC, LINUX, UNIX, OS X, iOS, WINDOWS, or an embedded operating system such as VxWorks) includes various software components and/or drivers that control and manage general system tasks (e.g., memory management, storage device control, power management, etc.) and facilitate communication between various hardware and software components.

The communications module 128 also includes various software components for facilitating communication with other devices via one or more external ports 124 and for processing data received by the RF circuitry 108 and/or the external ports 124. The external ports 124 (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB), FIREWIRE, etc.) are adapted to couple to other devices directly or indirectly via a network (e.g., Internet, wireless LAN, etc.). In some embodiments, the external ports are multi-pin (e.g., 30-pin) connectors that are the same as or similar to and/or compatible with the 30-pin connector used on iPod® (trademark of Apple Inc.) devices.

Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects contact with touch screen 112 and other touch-sensing devices (e.g., a touchpad or physical click wheel) (in cooperation with display controller 156). Contact/motion module 130 includes various software components for performing various operations related to contact detection, such as determining whether contact occurs (e.g., detecting a finger down event), determining the strength of the contact (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact, or a surrogate for the force or pressure of the contact), determining whether there is contact movement and tracking the movement across the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., detecting one or more finger dragging events), and determining whether contact has ceased (e.g., detecting a finger up event or an interruption of contact). Contact/motion module 130 receives contact data from the touch-sensitive surface. Determining the movement of the contact, as represented by the set of contact data, optionally includes determining the speed (magnitude), velocity (magnitude and direction), and/or acceleration (change in magnitude and/or direction) of the contact. These actions are optionally applied to a single contact (e.g., one finger contact) or multiple simultaneous contacts (e.g., "multi-touch"/multiple finger contacts). In some embodiments, contact/motion module 130 and display controller 156 detect contacts on a touchpad.

In some embodiments, the contact/motion module 130 uses a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an action has been performed by the user (e.g., to determine whether the user has "clicked" on an icon). In some embodiments, at least a subset of the intensity thresholds are determined according to software parameters (e.g., the intensity thresholds are not determined by the activation thresholds of a particular physical actuator, but can be adjusted without modifying the physical hardware of the device 100). For example, the mouse "click" threshold of a trackpad or touchscreen display can be set to any of a wide range of predefined thresholds without modifying the trackpad or touchscreen display hardware. Additionally, in some implementations, a user of the device is provided with a software setting to adjust one or more of the set of intensity thresholds (e.g., by adjusting individual intensity thresholds and/or by adjusting multiple intensity thresholds at once via a system-level click "intensity" parameter).

Contact/motion module 130 optionally detects gesture input by a user. Different gestures on a touch-sensitive surface have different contact patterns (e.g., different movements, timing, and/or strength of detected contacts). Thus, gestures are optionally detected by detecting a particular contact pattern. For example, detecting a finger tap gesture includes detecting a finger down event, followed by detecting a finger up (lift off) event at the same position (or substantially the same position) as the finger down event (e.g., at the position of an icon). As another example, detecting a finger swipe gesture on a touch-sensitive surface includes detecting a finger down event, followed by detecting one or more finger drag events, followed by detecting a finger up (lift off) event.

Graphics module 132 includes various known software components that render and display graphics on touch screen 112 or other display, including components that modify the visual impact (e.g., brightness, transparency, saturation, contrast, or other visual properties) of the displayed graphics. As used herein, the term "graphics" includes any object that can be displayed to a user, including, but not limited to, characters, web pages, icons (such as user interface objects including soft keys), digital images, videos, animations, and the like.

In some embodiments, graphics module 132 stores data representing the graphics to be used. Each graphic is optionally assigned a corresponding code. Graphics module 132 receives one or more codes specifying the graphics to be displayed, including, as appropriate, coordinate data and other graphic property data, from an application or the like, and then generates screen image data for output to display controller 156.

The tactile feedback module 133 includes various software components for generating instructions used by the tactile output generator(s) 167 to generate tactile outputs at one or more locations on the device 100 in response to a user's interaction with the device 100.

Each of the modules and applications identified above corresponds to a set of executable instructions that perform one or more of the functions and methods described herein (e.g., the computer-implemented methods and other information processing methods described herein). These modules (e.g., sets of instructions) need not be implemented as respective software programs (e.g., computer programs (e.g., including instructions), procedures, or modules), and thus in various embodiments, various subsets of these modules are optionally combined or otherwise reconfigured. For example, a video player module is optionally combined with a music player module into a single module (e.g., video and music player module 152 of FIG. 1A). In some embodiments, memory 102 optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Additionally, memory 102 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.

In some embodiments, device 100 is a device in which operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively via a touchscreen and/or touchpad. Using the touchscreen and/or touchpad as the primary input control device for operation of device 100 optionally reduces the number of physical input control devices (push buttons, dials, etc.) on device 100.

The set of default functions performed solely through the touchscreen and/or touchpad optionally includes navigation between user interfaces. In some embodiments, the touchpad, when touched by a user, navigates device 100 to a main menu, a home menu, or a root menu from any user interface displayed on device 100. In such embodiments, a "menu button" is implemented using the touchpad. In some other embodiments, the menu button is a physical push button or other physical input control device rather than a touchpad.

FIG. 1B is a block diagram illustrating example components for event processing, according to some embodiments. In some embodiments, memory 102 (FIG. 1A) or 370 (FIG. 3) includes an event sorter 170 (e.g., in operating system 126) and a separate application 136-1 (e.g., any of applications 137-151, 155, 380-390 described above).

Event sorter 170 receives the event information and determines which application 136-1 to deliver the event information to and application view 191 of application 136-1. Event sorter 170 includes an event monitor 171 and an event dispatcher module 174. In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes application internal state 192 that indicates the current application view(s) that are displayed on touch-sensitive display 112 when the application is active or running. In some embodiments, device/global internal state 157 is used by event sorter 170 to determine which application(s) is currently active, and application internal state 192 is used by event sorter 170 to determine which application view 191 to deliver the event information to.

In some embodiments, application internal state 192 includes additional information such as one or more of resume information to be used when application 136-1 resumes execution, user interface state information indicating or ready to display information being displayed by application 136-1, state cues that allow the user to return to a previous state or view of application 136-1, and redo/undo cues of previous actions taken by the user.

Event monitor 171 receives event information from peripherals interface 118. The event information includes information about a sub-event (e.g., a user touch as part of a multi-touch gesture on touch-sensitive display 112). Peripherals interface 118 transmits information it receives from I/O subsystem 106 or sensors such as proximity sensor 166, accelerometer(s) 168, and/or microphone 113 (via audio circuitry 110). Information that peripherals interface 118 receives from I/O subsystem 106 includes information from touch-sensitive display 112 or a touch-sensitive surface.

In some embodiments, event monitor 171 sends requests to peripherals interface 118 at predetermined intervals. In response, peripherals interface 118 sends event information. In other embodiments, peripherals interface 118 sends event information only when there is a significant event (e.g., receipt of an input above a predetermined noise threshold and/or for a predetermined duration).

In some embodiments, the event sorter 170 also includes a hit view determination module 172 and/or an active event recognizer determination module 173.

Hit view determination module 172 provides software procedures that determine where a sub-event occurred within one or more views when touch-sensitive display 112 displays more than one view. A view consists of the controls and other elements that a user can see on the display.

Another aspect of a user interface associated with an application is the set of views, sometimes referred to herein as application views or user interface windows, in which information is displayed and in which touch-based gestures occur. The application views (of a particular application) in which the touch is detected optionally correspond to programmatic levels within the programmatic or view hierarchy of the application. For example, the lowest level view in which the touch is detected is optionally referred to as a hit view, and the set of events that are recognized as suitable inputs is optionally determined based at least in part on the hit view of the initial touch that initiates the touch gesture.

Hit view determination module 172 receives information related to sub-events of a touch-based gesture. When an application has multiple views organized in a hierarchy, hit view determination module 172 identifies the hit view as the lowest view in the hierarchy that should process the sub-events. In most situations, the hit view is the lowest level view in which an initiating sub-event occurs (e.g., the first sub-event in a sequence of sub-events that form an event or potential event). Once a hit view is identified by hit view determination module 172, the hit view typically receives all sub-events related to the same touch or input source as the touch or input source identified as the hit view.

Active event recognizer determination module 173 determines which view(s) in the view hierarchy should receive the particular sequence of sub-events. In some embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that only the hit view should receive the particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, active event recognizer determination module 173 determines that all views that contain the physical location of the sub-event are actively participating views, and therefore all actively participating views should receive the particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, even if the touch sub-event is entirely confined to the area associated with one particular view, views higher in the hierarchy still remain actively participating views.

Event dispatcher module 174 dispatches event information to event recognizers (e.g., event recognizer 180). In embodiments that include active event recognizer determination module 173, event dispatcher module 174 delivers event information to the event recognizers determined by active event recognizer determination module 173. In some embodiments, event dispatcher module 174 stores event information in an event queue for retrieval by individual event receivers 182.

In some embodiments, the operating system 126 includes the event sorter 170. Alternatively, the application 136-1 includes the event sorter 170. In still other embodiments, the event sorter 170 is a stand-alone module or is part of another module stored in the memory 102, such as the contact/motion module 130.

In some embodiments, application 136-1 includes multiple event handlers 190 and one or more application views 191, each including instructions for handling touch events occurring within a separate view of the application's user interface. Each application view 191 of application 136-1 includes one or more event recognizers 180. Typically, a separate application view 191 includes multiple event recognizers 180. In other embodiments, one or more of the event recognizers 180 are part of a separate module, such as a user interface kit or a higher-level object from which application 136-1 inherits methods and other properties. In some embodiments, a separate event handler 190 includes one or more of a data updater 176, an object updater 177, a GUI updater 178, and/or event data 179 received from event sorter 170. Event handler 190 optionally utilizes or invokes data updater 176, object updater 177, or GUI updater 178 to update application internal state 192. Alternatively, one or more of the application views 191 include one or more respective event handlers 190. Also, in some embodiments, one or more of the data updater 176, the object updater 177, and the GUI updater 178 are included in individual application views 191.

A separate event recognizer 180 receives event information (e.g., event data 179) from the event sorter 170 and identifies an event from the event information. The event recognizer 180 includes an event receiver 182 and an event comparator 184. In some embodiments, the event recognizer 180 also includes at least a subset of metadata 183 and event delivery instructions 188 (optionally including sub-event delivery instructions).

The event receiver 182 receives event information from the event sorter 170. The event information includes information about a sub-event, e.g., a touch or a movement of a touch. Depending on the sub-event, the event information also includes additional information, such as the location of the sub-event. When the sub-event involves a movement of a touch, the event information also optionally includes the speed and direction of the sub-event. In some embodiments, the event includes a rotation of the device from one orientation to another (e.g., from portrait to landscape or vice versa), and the event information includes corresponding information about the current orientation of the device (also called the device's posture).

The event comparator 184 compares the event information to a predefined event or sub-event definition and determines the event or sub-event or determines or updates the state of the event or sub-event based on the comparison. In some embodiments, the event comparator 184 includes an event definition 186. The event definition 186 includes definitions of events (e.g., a predefined set of sub-events), such as event 1 (187-1) and event 2 (187-2). In some embodiments, the sub-events in the events (187-1 and/or 187-2) include, for example, touch start, touch end, touch movement, touch cancellation, and multiple touches. In one example, the definition for event 1 (187-1) is a double tap on a displayed object. The double tap includes, for example, a first touch on a display object for a given stage (touch start), a first lift-off (touch end) for a given stage, a second touch on a display object for a given stage (touch start), and a second lift-off (touch end) for a given stage. In another example, a definition of event 2 (187-2) is a drag on a displayed object. The drag includes, for example, a touch (or contact) on the displayed object to a predetermined stage, a movement of the touch across the touch-sensitive display 112, and a lift-off of the touch (touch end). In some embodiments, the event also includes information regarding one or more associated event handlers 190.

In some embodiments, event definition 186 includes definitions of events for individual user interface objects. In some embodiments, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which user interface object is associated with the sub-event. For example, when a touch is detected on touch-sensitive display 112 in an application view in which three user interface objects are displayed on touch-sensitive display 112, event comparator 184 performs a hit test to determine which of the three user interface objects is associated with the touch (sub-event). If each displayed object is associated with a separate event handler 190, event comparator 184 uses the results of the hit test to determine which event handler 190 to activate. For example, event comparator 184 selects the event handler associated with the sub-event and object that triggers the hit test.

In some embodiments, the definition of an individual event 187 also includes a delay action that delays delivery of the event information until it is determined whether a set of sub-events corresponds to the event type of the event recognizer.

If the individual event recognizer 180 determines that the set of sub-events does not match any of the events in the event definition 186, the individual event recognizer 180 enters an event disabled, event failed, or event finished state and thereafter ignores the next sub-event of the touch-based gesture. In this situation, any other event recognizers that remain active for the hit view continue to track and process sub-events of the ongoing touch gesture.

In some embodiments, individual event recognizers 180 include metadata 183 with configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate to actively participating event recognizers how the event delivery system should perform sub-event delivery. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how event recognizers interact with each other or are allowed to interact with each other. In some embodiments, metadata 183 includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how sub-events are delivered to various levels in a view or programmatic hierarchy.

In some embodiments, the individual event recognizer 180 activates an event handler 190 associated with an event when one or more specific sub-events of the event are recognized. In some embodiments, the individual event recognizer 180 delivers event information associated with the event to the event handler 190. Activating the event handler 190 is separate from sending (and postponing sending) the sub-events to the individual hit view. In some embodiments, the event recognizer 180 pops a flag associated with the recognized event, and the event handler 190 associated with the flag catches the flag and performs a predefined process.

In some embodiments, the event delivery instructions 188 include sub-event delivery instructions that deliver event information about a sub-event without activating an event handler. Instead, the sub-event delivery instructions deliver the event information to an event handler associated with a set of sub-events or to an actively participating view. The event handler associated with the set of sub-events or the actively participating view receives the event information and performs a predetermined process.

In some embodiments, data updater 176 creates and updates data used by application 136-1. For example, data updater 176 updates phone numbers used by contacts module 137 or stores video files used by a video player module. In some embodiments, object updater 177 creates and updates objects used by application 136-1. For example, object updater 177 creates new user interface objects or updates the positions of user interface objects. GUI updater 178 updates the GUI. For example, GUI updater 178 prepares display information and sends the display information to graphics module 132 for display on the touch-sensitive display.

In some embodiments, the event handler(s) 190 includes or has access to a data updater 176, an object updater 177, and a GUI updater 178. In some embodiments, the data updater 176, the object updater 177, and the GUI updater 178 are included in a single module of an individual application 136-1 or application view 191. In other embodiments, they are included in two or more software modules.

It should be understood that the foregoing description of event processing of a user's touch on a touch-sensitive display also applies to other forms of user input for operating multifunction device 100 using input devices, not all of which are initiated on a touch screen. For example, mouse movements and mouse button presses, contact movements such as tapping, dragging, scrolling on a touchpad, optionally coordinated with single or multiple presses or holds on a keyboard, pen stylus input, device movements, verbal commands, detected eye movements, biometric input, and/or any combination thereof, are optionally utilized as inputs corresponding to sub-events that define the event to be recognized.

FIG. 2 illustrates portable multifunction device 100 having touch screen 112, according to some embodiments. The touch screen optionally displays one or more graphics in user interface (UI) 200. In this embodiment, as well as other embodiments described below, a user may select one or more of the graphics by performing a gesture on the graphics, for example, using one or more fingers 202 (not drawn to scale) or one or more styluses 203 (not drawn to scale). In some embodiments, selection of one or more graphics is performed when the user breaks contact with the one or more graphics. In some embodiments, the gesture optionally includes one or more taps, one or more swipes (left to right, right to left, upwards and/or downwards), and/or rolling (right to left, left to right, upwards and/or downwards) of a finger in contact with device 100. In some implementations or situations, accidental contact with a graphic does not select the graphic. For example, if the gesture corresponding to selection is a tap, a swipe gesture sweeping over an application icon optionally does not select the corresponding application.

Device 100 also optionally includes one or more physical buttons, such as a "home" button or menu button 204. As previously mentioned, menu button 204 is optionally used to navigate to any application 136 within a set of applications executing on device 100. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the menu button is implemented as a soft key within a GUI displayed on touch screen 112.

In some embodiments, device 100 includes a touch screen 112, a menu button 204, a push button 206 for powering the device on/off and locking the device, a volume control button(s) 208, a subscriber identity module (SIM) card slot 210, a headset jack 212, and an external port 124 for docking/charging. Push button 206 is optionally used to power the device on/off by pressing and holding the button down for a predefined period of time, to lock the device by pressing and releasing the button before the predefined time has elapsed, and/or to unlock the device or initiate an unlocking process. In an alternative embodiment, device 100 also accepts verbal input via microphone 113 to activate or deactivate some functions. Device 100 also optionally includes one or more contact intensity sensors 165 for detecting the intensity of a contact on touch screen 112, and/or one or more tactile output generators 167 for generating a tactile output to a user of device 100.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram of an exemplary multifunction device having a display and a touch-sensitive surface, according to some embodiments. Device 300 need not be portable. In some embodiments, device 300 is a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a tablet computer, a multimedia player device, a navigation device, an educational device (such as a child's learning toy), a gaming system, or a control device (e.g., a home or commercial controller). Device 300 typically includes one or more processing units (CPUs) 310, one or more network or other communication interfaces 360, memory 370, and one or more communication buses 320 interconnecting these components. Communication bus 320 optionally includes circuitry (sometimes referred to as a chipset) that interconnects and controls communication between system components. Device 300 includes an input/output (I/O) interface 330 that includes a display 340, which is typically a touch screen display. I/O interface 330 also optionally includes a keyboard and/or mouse (or other pointing device) 350 and a touchpad 355, a tactile output generator 357 for generating tactile output on device 300 (e.g., similar to tactile output generator(s) 167 described above with reference to FIG. 1A), and sensors 359 (e.g., light, acceleration, proximity, touch sensing, and/or contact intensity sensors similar to contact intensity sensor(s) 165 described above with reference to FIG. 1A). Memory 370 includes high-speed random access memory, such as DRAM, SRAM, DDR RAM, or other random access solid-state memory devices, and optionally includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, optical disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid-state storage devices. Memory 370 optionally includes one or more storage devices located remotely from CPU(s) 310. In some embodiments, memory 370 stores programs, modules, and data structures similar to, or a subset of, the programs, modules, and data structures stored in memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100 (FIG. 1A). Additionally, memory 370 optionally stores additional programs, modules, and data structures not present in memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100. For example, memory 370 of device 300 optionally stores drawing module 380, presentation module 382, word processing module 384, website creation module 386, disk authoring module 388, and/or spreadsheet module 390, whereas memory 102 of portable multifunction device 100 (FIG. 1A) optionally does not store these modules.

Each of the above-identified elements of FIG. 3 is optionally stored in one or more of the memory devices described above. Each of the above-identified modules corresponds to an instruction set that performs the functions described above. The above-identified modules or computer programs (e.g., including instruction sets or instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs (e.g., computer programs (e.g., including instructions)), procedures, or modules, and thus in various embodiments, various subsets of these modules are optionally combined or otherwise reconfigured. In some embodiments, memory 370 optionally stores a subset of the above-identified modules and data structures. Additionally, memory 370 optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above.

Attention is then optionally directed to embodiments of a user interface that may be implemented, for example, on portable multifunction device 100.

4A shows an exemplary user interface for a menu of applications on portable multifunction device 100, according to some embodiments. A similar user interface is optionally implemented on device 300. In some embodiments, user interface 400 includes the following elements, or a subset or superset thereof:
Signal strength indicator(s) 402 for wireless communication(s), such as cellular and Wi-Fi signals;
● Time 404,
Bluetooth indicator 405;
- battery status indicator 406;
A tray 408 with icons of frequently used applications, such as:
o An icon 416 for the phone module 138, labeled "Phone", optionally including an indicator 414 of the number of missed calls or voicemail messages;
o An icon 418 of the email client module 140, labeled "Mail", optionally including an indicator 410 of the number of unread emails;
o An icon 420 for the browser module 147, labeled "Browser"; and o An icon 422 for the video and music player module 152, also referred to as the iPod (trademark of Apple Inc.) module 152, labeled "iPod"; and
○ An icon 424 for the IM module 141, labeled "Messages";
○ An icon 426 of the calendar module 148, labeled "Calendar";
○ An icon 428 in the Image Management module 144, labeled "Photos";
○ An icon 430 for the camera module 143, labeled "Camera",
o An icon 432 of the Online Video module 155, labeled "Online Video",
icon 434 of stock price widget 149-2, labeled "Stock Price"
○ An icon 436 of the map module 154, labeled "Map";
○ Icon 438 of weather widget 149-1, labeled "Weather";
○ An icon 440 of the alarm clock widget 149-4, labeled "Clock";
○ An icon 442 of the Training Support module 142, labeled "Training Support";
o an icon 444 for the notes module 153, labeled "Notes", and o an icon 446 for a settings application or module, labeled "Settings", which provides access to settings for the device 100 and its various applications 136.

Note that the icon labels shown in FIG. 4A are merely exemplary. For example, icon 422 of video and music player module 152 is labeled "Music" or "Music Player." Other labels are optionally used for the various application icons. In some embodiments, the label for an individual application icon includes the name of the application that corresponds to the individual application icon. In some embodiments, the label of a particular application icon is different from the name of the application that corresponds to that particular application icon.

4B illustrates an exemplary user interface on a device (e.g., device 300 of FIG. 3) having a touch-sensitive surface 451 (e.g., tablet or touchpad 355 of FIG. 3) that is separate from display 450 (e.g., touchscreen display 112). Device 300 also optionally includes one or more contact intensity sensors (e.g., one or more of sensors 359) that detect the intensity of a contact on touch-sensitive surface 451, and/or one or more tactile output generators 357 that generate a tactile output for a user of device 300.

Although some of the following examples are given with reference to input on touch screen display 112 (where the touch-sensitive surface and display are combined), in some embodiments the device detects input on a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the display, as shown in FIG. 4B. In some embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., 451 in FIG. 4B) has a primary axis (e.g., 452 in FIG. 4B) that corresponds to a primary axis (e.g., 453 in FIG. 4B) on the display (e.g., 450). According to these embodiments, the device detects contact with touch-sensitive surface 451 (e.g., 460 and 462 in FIG. 4B) at locations that correspond to respective locations on the display (e.g., in FIG. 4B, 460 corresponds to 468 and 462 corresponds to 470). In this manner, user input (e.g., contacts 460 and 462 and their movement) detected by the device on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., 451 in FIG. 4B ) is used by the device to operate a user interface on the display (e.g., 450 in FIG. 4B ) of the multifunction device when the touch-sensitive surface is separate from the display. It should be understood that similar methods are optionally used for the other user interfaces described herein.

In addition, while the following examples are given primarily with reference to finger input (e.g., finger contact, finger tap gesture, finger swipe gesture), it should be understood that in some embodiments, one or more of the finger inputs are replaced with input from another input device (e.g., mouse-based input or stylus input). For example, a swipe gesture is optionally replaced by a mouse click (e.g., instead of a contact) followed by movement of the cursor along the path of the swipe (e.g., instead of moving the contact). As another example, a tap gesture is optionally replaced by a mouse click (e.g., instead of detecting a contact and then ceasing to detect the contact) while the cursor is located over the location of the tap gesture. Similarly, it should be understood that when multiple user inputs are detected simultaneously, multiple computer mice are optionally used simultaneously, or mice and finger contacts are optionally used simultaneously.

5A illustrates an exemplary personal electronic device 500. Device 500 includes a body 502. In some embodiments, device 500 can include some or all of the features described with respect to devices 100 and 300 (e.g., FIGS. 1A-4B). In some embodiments, device 500 has a touch-sensitive display screen 504, hereafter touch screen 504. Alternatively, or in addition to touch screen 504, device 500 has a display and a touch-sensitive surface. Similar to devices 100 and 300, in some embodiments, touch screen 504 (or touch-sensitive surface) optionally includes one or more intensity sensors that detect the intensity of contact (e.g., touch) being applied. One or more intensity sensors of touch screen 504 (or touch-sensitive surface) can provide output data that represents the intensity of the touch. The user interface of device 500 can respond to touch(s) based on their intensity, meaning that touches of different intensities can invoke different user interface actions on device 500.

Exemplary techniques for detecting and processing touch intensity are described, for example, in International Patent Application No. PCT/US2013/040061, filed May 8, 2013, published as International Publication No. WO/2013/169849, entitled "Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Displaying User Interface Objects Corresponding to an Application," and International Patent Application No. PCT/US2013/069483, filed November 11, 2013, published as International Publication No. WO/2014/105276, entitled "Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Displaying User Interface Objects Corresponding to an Application," each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Please refer to "Graphical User Interface for Transitioning Between Touch Input to Display Output Relationships."

In some embodiments, device 500 has one or more input mechanisms 506 and 508. Input mechanisms 506 and 508, if included, may be physical. Examples of physical input mechanisms include push buttons and rotatable mechanisms. In some embodiments, device 500 has one or more attachment mechanisms. Such attachment mechanisms, if included, may allow device 500 to be attached to, for example, hats, eyewear, earrings, necklaces, shirts, jackets, bracelets, watch bands, chains, pants, belts, shoes, wallets, backpacks, etc. These attachment mechanisms allow a user to wear device 500.

5B illustrates an exemplary personal electronic device 500. In some embodiments, the device 500 can include some or all of the components described with respect to FIGS. 1A, 1B, and 3. The device 500 has a bus 512 that operably couples an I/O section 514 to one or more computer processors 516 and a memory 518. The I/O section 514 can be connected to a display 504, which can have a touch-sensing component 522 and optionally an intensity sensor 524 (e.g., a contact intensity sensor). In addition, the I/O section 514 can be connected to a communication unit 530 that receives application and operating system data using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, near field communication (NFC), cellular, and/or other wireless communication technologies. The device 500 can include input mechanisms 506 and/or 508. The input mechanism 506 is optionally, for example, a rotatable input device or a depressible and rotatable input device. In some embodiments, the input mechanism 508 is optionally a button.

In some embodiments, the input mechanism 508 is optionally a microphone. The personal electronic device 500 optionally includes various sensors, such as a GPS sensor 532, an accelerometer 534, an orientation sensor 540 (e.g., a compass), a gyroscope 536, a motion sensor 538, and/or combinations thereof, all of which may be operably connected to the I/O section 514.

The memory 518 of the personal electronic device 500 can include one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media for storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by, for example, one or more computer processors 516, can cause the computer processors to perform the techniques described below, including processes 700-1300, 1500-1800, and 2000 (FIGS. 7-13, 15-18, and 20A-20B). A computer-readable storage medium can be any medium that can tangibly contain or store computer-executable instructions for use by or in connection with an instruction execution system, apparatus, or device. In some embodiments, the storage medium is a transient computer-readable storage medium. In some embodiments, the storage medium is a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium can include, but is not limited to, a magnetic storage device, an optical storage device, and/or a semiconductor storage device. Examples of such storage devices include magnetic disks, optical disks based on CDs, DVDs, or Blu-ray technology, and persistent solid-state memory such as flash, solid-state drives, etc. Personal electronic device 500 is not limited to the components and configuration of FIG. 5B and may include other or additional components in multiple configurations.

As used herein, the term "affordance" refers to a user-interactive graphical user interface object, optionally displayed on a display screen of device 100, 300, and/or 500 (FIGS. 1A, 3, and 5A-5B). For example, images (e.g., icons), buttons, and text (e.g., hyperlinks) each, optionally, constitute an affordance.

As used herein, the term "focus selector" refers to an input element that indicates the current portion of the user interface with which the user is interacting. In some implementations involving a cursor or other location marker, the cursor acts as the "focus selector" such that when an input (e.g., a press input) is detected on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touchpad 355 of FIG. 3 or touch-sensitive surface 451 of FIG. 4B) while the cursor is positioned over a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element), the particular user interface element is adjusted according to the detected input. In some implementations involving a touchscreen display (e.g., touch-sensitive display system 112 of FIG. 1A or touchscreen 112 of FIG. 4A) that allows direct interaction with user interface elements on the touchscreen display, a detected contact on the touchscreen acts as the "focus selector" such that when an input (e.g., a press input by contact) is detected at the location of a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider, or other user interface element) on the touchscreen display, the particular user interface element is adjusted according to the detected input. In some implementations, focus is moved from one region of the user interface to another region of the user interface without a corresponding cursor movement or contact movement on the touchscreen display (e.g., by using a tab key or arrow keys to move focus from one button to another), and in these implementations, the focus selector moves to follow the movement of focus between various regions of the user interface. Regardless of the specific form that the focus selector takes, it is generally a user interface element (or contact on a touchscreen display) that is controlled by the user to communicate the user's intended interaction with the user interface (e.g., by indicating to the device the element of the user interface through which the user intends to interact). For example, the location of the focus selector (e.g., cursor, contact, or selection box) over an individual button while a press input is detected on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchpad or touchscreen) indicates that the user intends to activate that individual button (and not other user interface elements shown on the device's display).

As used herein and in the claims, the term "characteristic intensity" of a contact refers to a characteristic of that contact based on one or more intensities of the contact. In some embodiments, the characteristic intensity is based on a plurality of intensity samples. The characteristic intensity is optionally based on a set of intensity samples collected over a predefined number of intensity samples, i.e., a predefined time period (e.g., 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10 seconds) associated with a predefined event (e.g., after detecting a contact, before detecting a lift-off of the contact, before or after detecting the start of movement of the contact, before detecting the end of the contact, before or after detecting an increase in the intensity of the contact, and/or before or after detecting a decrease in the intensity of the contact). The characteristic intensity of the contact is optionally based on one or more of the following: a maximum value of the intensity of the contact, a mean value of the intensity of the contact, an average value of the intensity of the contact, a top 10th percentile value of the intensity of the contact, a half maximum value of the intensity of the contact, a 90th percentile value of the intensity of the contact, or the like. In some embodiments, the duration of the contact is used in determining the characteristic intensity (e.g., when the characteristic intensity is an average of the intensity of the contact over time). In some embodiments, the characteristic intensity is compared to a set of one or more intensity thresholds to determine whether an action is performed by the user. For example, the set of one or more intensity thresholds optionally includes a first intensity threshold and a second intensity threshold. In this example, a contact having a characteristic intensity that does not exceed the first threshold results in a first action, a contact having a characteristic intensity above the first intensity threshold but not exceeding the second intensity threshold results in a second action, and a contact having a characteristic intensity above the second threshold results in a third action. In some embodiments, the comparison between the characteristic intensity and the one or more thresholds is not used to determine whether the first action or the second action should be performed, but rather is used to determine whether one or more actions should be performed (e.g., whether to perform an individual action or to forgo performing an individual action).

As used herein, an "installed application" refers to a software application that has been downloaded onto an electronic device (e.g., devices 100, 300, and/or 500) and is ready to run (e.g., opened) on the device. In some embodiments, a downloaded application becomes an installed application by an installation program that extracts program portions from a downloaded package and integrates the extracted portions with the computer system's operating system.

As used herein, the terms "open application" or "running application" refer to a software application that has state information retained (e.g., as part of device/global internal state 157 and/or application internal state 192). An open or running application is, optionally, any one of the following types of applications:
● the active application currently displayed on the display screen of the device on which the application is being used;
- Background applications (or background processes) that are not currently displayed but one or more processes for the application are being processed by one or more processors; and - Suspended or hibernated applications that are not running but have state information stored in memory (volatile and non-volatile, respectively) that can be used to resume execution of the application.

As used herein, the term "closed application" refers to a software application that does not have retained state information (e.g., state information for a closed application is not stored in the device's memory). Thus, closing an application includes stopping and/or removing the application process for the application and removing state information for the application from the device's memory. Generally, opening a second application during a first application does not close the first application. When the second application is displayed and the first application is stopped from being displayed, the first application becomes a background application.

5C illustrates an exemplary diagram of a communication session between electronic devices 500A, 500B, and 500C. Devices 500A, 500B, and 500C are similar to electronic device 500, and each share one or more data connections 510, such as an Internet connection, a Wi-Fi connection, a cellular connection, a short-range communication connection, and/or any other such data connection or network, with each other to facilitate real-time communication of audio and/or video data between the respective devices over a period of time. In some embodiments, the exemplary communication session may include a shared data session in which data is communicated from one or more of the electronic devices to the other electronic devices to enable simultaneous output of individual content at the electronic devices. In some embodiments, the exemplary communication session may include a videoconferencing session in which audio and/or video data is communicated between devices 500A, 500B, and 500C such that users of the respective devices may engage in real-time communication using the electronic devices.

In FIG. 5C, device 500A represents an electronic device associated with user A. Device 500A is in communication (via data connection 510) with devices 500B and 500C associated with users B and C, respectively. Device 500A includes a camera 501A used to capture video data of the communication session and a display 504A (e.g., a touch screen) used to display content associated with the communication session. Device 500A also includes other components such as a microphone (e.g., 113) for recording audio for the communication session and a speaker (e.g., 111) for outputting audio for the communication session.

Device 500A displays, via display 504A, communication UI 520A, which is a user interface that facilitates a communication session (e.g., a video conferencing session) between device 500B and device 500C. Communication UI 520A includes video feed 525-1A and video feed 525-2A. Video feed 525-1A is a representation of video data captured at device 500B (e.g., using camera 501B) and communicated from device 500B to devices 500A and 500C during the communication session. Video feed 525-2A is a representation of video data captured at device 500C (e.g., using camera 501C) and communicated from device 500C to devices 500A and 500B during the communication session.

The camera preview 550A represents to the user A the expected video feed of the user A that will be displayed on the respective devices 500B and 500C.

The communication UI 520A includes one or more controls 555A that control one or more aspects of the communication session. For example, the controls 555A may include controls for muting audio for the communication session, changing a camera view for the communication session (e.g., changing which camera is used to capture video for the communication session, adjusting a zoom value), terminating the communication session, applying visual effects to a camera view for the communication session, and activating one or more modes associated with the communication session. In some embodiments, the one or more controls 555A are optionally displayed on the communication UI 520A. In some embodiments, the one or more controls 555A are displayed separately from the camera preview 550A. In some embodiments, the one or more controls 555A are displayed over at least a portion of the camera preview 550A.

In FIG. 5C, device 500B represents an electronic device associated with user B in communication with devices 500A and 500C (via data connection 510). Device 500B includes a camera 501B used to capture video data for the communication session and a display 504B (e.g., a touch screen) used to display content associated with the communication session. Device 500B also includes other components such as a microphone (e.g., 113) for recording audio for the communication session and a speaker (e.g., 111) for outputting audio for the communication session.

Device 500B displays a communication UI 520B similar to communication UI 520A of device 500A via touch screen 504B. Communication UI 520B includes video feed 525-1B and video feed 525-2B. Video feed 525-1B is a representation of video data captured at device 500A (e.g., using camera 501A) and communicated from device 500A to devices 500B and 500C during a communication session. Video feed 525-2B is a representation of video data captured at device 500C (e.g., using camera 501C) and communicated from device 500C to devices 500A and 500B during a communication session. Communication UI 520B also includes camera preview 550B, which is a representation of video data captured at device 500B via camera 501B, and one or more controls 555B for controlling one or more aspects of the communication session, similar to control 555A. Camera preview 550B represents to user B the expected video feed of user B that will be displayed on each of devices 500A and 500C.

In FIG. 5C, device 500C represents an electronic device associated with user C in communication with devices 500A and 500B (via data connection 510). Device 500C includes a camera 501C used to capture video data of the communication session and a display 504C (e.g., a touch screen) used to display content associated with the communication session. Device 500C also includes other components such as a microphone (e.g., 113) for recording audio for the communication session and a speaker (e.g., 111) for outputting audio for the communication session.

Device 500C displays a communication UI 520C similar to communication UI 520A of device 500A and communication UI 520B of device 500B via touch screen 504C. Communication UI 520C includes video feed 525-1C and video feed 525-2C. Video feed 525-1C is a representation of video data captured at device 500B (e.g., using camera 501B) and communicated from device 500B to devices 500A and 500C during a communication session. Video feed 525-2C is a representation of video data captured at device 500A (e.g., using camera 501A) and communicated from device 500A to devices 500B and 500C during a communication session. Communications UI 520C also includes a camera preview 550C, which is a representation of video data captured at device 500C via camera 501C, and one or more controls 555C for controlling one or more aspects of the communications session, similar to controls 555A and 555B. Camera preview 550C represents to user C an expected video feed of user C as it will be displayed on each of devices 500A and 500B.

Although the diagram shown in FIG. 5C represents a communication session between three electronic devices, a communication session may be established between two or more electronic devices, and the number of devices participating in a communication session may change as electronic devices join or leave the communication session. For example, if one of the electronic devices leaves the communication session, the audio and video data from the device that stopped participating in the communication session is no longer represented on the participating device. For example, if device 500B stops participating in the communication session, the data connection 510 between devices 500A and 500C and the data connection 510 between devices 500C and 500B do not exist. In addition, device 500A does not include video feed 525-1A, and device 500C does not include video feed 525-1C. Similarly, when a device joins a communication session, a connection is established between the joining device and the existing devices, and the video and audio data is shared between all devices so that each device can output data communicated from the other devices.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 5C represents a diagram of a communication session between multiple electronic devices, including the exemplary communication sessions shown in FIGS. 6A-6EQ and 14A-14AG. In some embodiments, the communication sessions shown in FIGS. 6A-6EQ and 14A-14AG include two or more electronic devices, even if other electronic devices involved in the communication session are not shown in the diagram.

Attention is now directed to embodiments of user interfaces ("UI") and associated processes implemented on an electronic device such as portable multifunction device 100, device 300, or device 500.

FIGS. 6A-6EQ illustrate example user interfaces for managing a shared content session, according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes of FIGS. 7-13 and 17-18. In some embodiments, the user interfaces of FIGS. 6A-6EQ can be used to illustrate the processes described below with respect to FIGS. 15-16.

This disclosure describes embodiments for managing a shared content session (also referred to as a shared session) in which individual content may be output simultaneously at multiple devices participating in the shared content session. In some embodiments, the individual content is screen sharing content. For example, the displayed screen content of the host device is shared with the participants of the shared content session, and the participants can view the screen content of the host device (the shared device, or the device whose screen content is being shared) in real time, including any changes to the displayed screen content, at their respective devices. In some embodiments, the individual content is synchronized content that is output simultaneously at each of the participants' devices in the shared content session. For example, each of the participants' devices separately accesses the individual content (e.g., videos, movies, TV shows, and/or songs) from a remote server and/or local memory, and is synchronized in its respective output of the content, such that the content is output simultaneously at each of the devices (e.g., via an application local to each of the devices) as each device separately accesses the individual content from the remote server and/or local memory. In some embodiments, the respective devices exchange information (e.g., via a server) to facilitate the synchronization. For example, each device can share content playback state and/or playback location information, as well as indications of local commands (e.g., play, pause, stop, fast forward, and/or rewind) to implement commands for the output of content on the other device. Because the host device does not transmit content to each device, but rather transmits smaller data packets that include playback state and/or playback location information, sharing playback state and/or playback location information is more efficient and effective for synchronizing content at each device. In addition, each respective device outputs content at a size and quality appropriate to the respective device and the device's connectivity (e.g., data connection conditions such as data transmission and/or processing speed), thereby providing a more customized and synchronized playback experience at each of the respective devices. In some embodiments, an application (or "app") is available (e.g., downloaded and/or installed) on each device to enable the devices to participate in a shared content session.

Unless otherwise specified, as discussed herein, the terms "share," "sharing," or "shared" are generally used to refer to a situation in which content (e.g., screen sharing content and/or synchronized content) is or can be output (e.g., viewed and/or played) simultaneously on multiple devices participating in a shared content session. Unless otherwise specified, these terms do not require that the content being "shared" is transmitted from any particular device participating in the shared content session to any of the other devices with which the content is being shared. In some embodiments, the content being shared in a shared content session is content that is accessed separately by each respective device, e.g., from a remote server or another source other than one of the devices participating in the shared content session. For example, in some embodiments, when media content such as a movie is being played on devices participating in a shared content session, the movie is said to be shared with the participants, even if each participant accesses (e.g., from a movie application) and plays the movie separately (but simultaneously) from the other participants in the shared content session. In some embodiments, the screen share content is shared with participants in the shared content session by transmitting image data from the host device that represents the content displayed on the display screen of the host device to other devices participating in the shared content session.

In some embodiments, one or more audio channels are active (e.g., open) during a shared content session, such that participants in the shared content session can talk to each other in real time while the shared content session is ongoing, and optionally while content is being shared via the shared content session (e.g., screen sharing content and/or synchronized content). In some embodiments, one or more video channels are open (e.g., via a video conferencing application local to the respective devices), such that participants in the shared content session can engage in live video communication (e.g., video chat) while the shared content session is ongoing, and optionally while content is being shared via the shared content session. Various aspects of these embodiments, as well as further details of shared content sessions, are described below with reference to the figures.

6A illustrates exemplary devices for participating in a shared content session, according to some embodiments. Specifically, the devices include John's device 6000A (e.g., a smartphone) and Jane's device 6000B (e.g., a smartphone), which are shown side-by-side to show the concurrent state of each device, including the user interface and inputs at each device. John's device 6000A includes a display 6001A, one or more cameras 6002A, one or more microphones 6003A (also referred to as mic 6003A), and one or more speakers 6007A (e.g., similar to speaker 111). Jane's device 6000B includes a display 6001B, one or more cameras 6002B, one or more microphones 6003B (also referred to as mic 6003B), and one or more speakers 6007B (e.g., similar to speaker 111). John's device 6000A is similar to Jane's device 6000B. In the following description, reference numbers may include the letter "A" to refer to elements of John's device, the letter "B" to refer to elements of Jane's device, or no letter to refer to elements of either or both devices. For example, devices 6000A and 6000B may be referenced using reference number 6000, i.e., reference number 6000 may be used herein to refer to John's device 6000A or Jane's device 6000B, or both. Other elements that share a common reference number may be referenced similarly. For example, displays 6001A and 6001B, cameras 6002A and 6002B, microphones 6003A and 6003B, and speakers 6007A and 6007B may be referenced using reference numbers 6001, 6002, 6003, and 6007, respectively. In some embodiments, device 6000 includes one or more features of devices 100, 300, and/or 500.

In the embodiments provided herein, John's device 6000A can be described as performing a set of functions associated with the shared content session, and Jane's device 6000B can be described as performing a different set of functions associated with the shared content session. These descriptions are not intended to limit the functions performed by each device, but rather are provided to illustrate various aspects and embodiments of the shared content session. Thus, unless otherwise specified, functions described as being performed by John's device 6000A can be similarly performed by Jane's device 6000B and other participants in the shared content session. Similarly, functions described as being performed by Jane's device 6000B can be similarly performed by John's device 6000A and other participants in the shared content session, unless otherwise specified.

6A-6L illustrate an example embodiment in which John initiates a shared content session with members of a group called "Mountaineers." In FIG. 6A, devices 6000A and 6000B are not in a shared content session (the shared content session is not active and the devices are not currently participating in any shared content session). John's device 6000A displays a message interface 6004A via display 6001A. Jane's device 6000B is not displaying any content (e.g., device 6000B is locked and/or inactive). In FIG. 6A, message interface 6004A illustrates a group message conversation including message 6004A-1 between participants of a group called "Mountaineers." Message display area 6004A-3 displays message 6004A-1. Message interface 6004A includes a Mountaineers group logo that is displayed in header area 6004A-2. John's device 6000A detects input 6005 (e.g., a tap input, a tap gesture) in header region 6004A-2 via display 6001A and, in response, displays options 6006 as shown in FIG. 6B.

In FIG. 6B, John's device 6000A, in response to detecting the input 6005, expands the header area 6004A-2 to display options 6006. The options include a phone option 6006-1, a video conference option 6006-2, a share option 6006-3, and a status option 6006-4. The phone option 6006-1 is selectable to call a member of the climber group. The video conference option 6006-2 is selectable to start a video conference session with a member of the climber group. The share option 6006-3 is selectable to start a shared content session with a member of the climber group. The status option 6006-4 is selectable to view a status card for the climber group. In FIG. 6B, John's device 6000A detects the input 6008 on the share option 6006-3 and, in response, starts a shared content session with a member of the climber group.

In FIG. 6C, John's device 6000A initiates a shared content session with members of the climber group. John's device 6000A displays a control area 6015A that provides information associated with the active shared content session between John's device 6000A and other participants in the climber group and includes selectable options for controlling the operation, parameters, and/or settings of the active shared content session. In addition, John's device 6000A displays a dynamic graphic 6010A in a message interface 6004A. The dynamic graphic 6010A is displayed in the message display area along with message 6004A-1, indicates that a shared content session has been initiated, and includes the status of the shared content session (e.g., 4 people have been invited to join). The dynamic graphic 6010A dynamically updates based on detected changes to various parameters of the shared content session, and in some embodiments is selectable to perform various functions associated with the shared content session. In some embodiments, the dynamic graphic 6010A is displayed in the message interface 6004A even if the shared content session is initiated from an application other than the message application (e.g., from a videoconferencing application). In some embodiments, the dynamic graphic 6010A may include different information, such as names and/or logos of groups participating in the shared content session, names of participants, activity occurring in the shared content session, or other relevant information. In some embodiments, the dynamic graphic 6010A may include selectable options to join or leave the shared content session. The content displayed within the dynamic graphic 6010A is specific to John's device 6000A. For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6C, the dynamic graphic 6010A does not include a selectable "Join" option because John's device 6000A has already joined the shared content session in response to a request to initiate a shared content session.

The control area 6015A provides information associated with the shared content session. As shown in FIG. 6C, at least some of this information is displayed in a status area 6015A-1, which includes identifiers 6015A-2 representing the names and group logos of the groups participating in the shared content session. The status area 6015A-1 also includes a status 6015A-3 indicating that four participants have currently been invited to join the shared content session. The control area 6015A also includes various options selectable to control the operation, parameters, and/or settings of the shared content session. For example, a messages option 6015A-4 is selectable in some embodiments to view a message conversation (e.g., a messages interface 6004A) between the participants of the shared content session. Speaker option 6015A-5, in some embodiments, is selectable to enable or disable audio output (e.g., on speaker 6007A) at John's device 6000A (or to enable or disable speaker mode at John's device 6000A) over the shared content session. Microphone option 6015A-6, in some embodiments, is selectable to enable or disable an audio channel for the shared content session for John's device 6000A. Microphone option 6015A-6 is currently shown in an enabled state (e.g., in bold) to indicate that microphone 6003A is enabled and that an audio channel for John's device 6000A is enabled for the shared content session. Video option 6015A-7, in some embodiments, is selectable to initiate a video conferencing session with participants in the shared content session, view an ongoing video conferencing session, enable/disable the camera, and/or select a different camera to be used for the shared content session. Share option 6015A-8, in some embodiments, is selectable to initiate a screen share option in which the contents of John's screen are shared with the participants of the shared content session. Leave option 6015A-9, in some embodiments, is selectable to optionally allow John (or John's device 6000A) to leave the shared content session without terminating the shared content session for the other participants of the shared content session. In some embodiments, share option 6015A-8 is selectable to view and/or change various media playback settings.

In some embodiments, the appearance of the share option 6015A-8 is used to indicate the playback status of the content and/or playback settings for media output during the shared content session. For example, in some embodiments, the share option 6015A-8 is shown in a bold (or otherwise visually highlighted) state when content is being output via the shared content session (e.g., when screen shared content or synchronized content is being output) and is not bold (or otherwise visually highlighted) when screen shared or synchronized content is not being output during the shared content session. In some embodiments, the share option 6015A-8 is bold or unbold to indicate various playback settings, such as settings for determining whether to prompt the user to share selected media with participants of the shared content session, as described in more detail below. In some embodiments, the share option 6015A-8 can be selected to change playback settings, as described in more detail below.

In response to John initiating the shared content session, the members of the climbers group receive an invitation to join the shared content session. Because Jane is a member of the climbers group, Jane's device 6000B displays an invitation 6012 that includes information about the shared content session and invites Jane to join the shared content session.

As shown in FIG. 6C, John's device 6000A detects a home gesture 6014 and Jane's device 6000B detects input 6016 on the invitation 6012. In response to detecting the home gesture 6014, John's device 6000A displays a home screen 6018 and hides the control area 6015A. In some embodiments, the control area 6015A is automatically hidden when no input is detected in the control area for a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 1 second, 3 seconds, or 5 seconds). In some embodiments, when the device is participating in a shared content session and the control area is not displayed, the device displays a visual indication of the ongoing shared content session as a reminder to the user that a shared content session is in progress. As shown in FIG. 6D, John's device 6000A displays a share pill 6020A in the status area of the home screen 6018. The share pill 6020A is selectable for displaying the control area 6015A.

In response to detecting input 6016, Jane's device 6000B displays a message interface 6004B including messages 6004B-1 of the ongoing group conversation and a dynamic graphic 6010B displayed in message display area 6004B-3. Dynamic graphic 6010B is similar to dynamic graphic 6010A, but the information presented in dynamic graphic 6010B is specific to Jane's device 6000B, just as the information presented in dynamic graphic 6010A is specific to John's device 6000A. For example, because Jane's device has not yet joined the shared content session, dynamic graphic 6010B includes a selectable join option 6010B-1 to join the shared content session. Additionally, dynamic graphic 6010B indicates that one person has joined the shared content session.

In FIG. 6D, Jane's device 6000B detects a scroll input 6022 and responsively scrolls the message presented in message display area 6004B-3, as shown in FIG. 6E. In FIG. 6E, message display area 6004B-3 is updated to show message display area 6004B-3 scrolled in response to input 6022, including indicating that dynamic graphic 6010B has scrolled out of view. With dynamic graphic 6010B scrolled out of view, Jane's device 6000B expands header area 6004B-2 to include dynamic content 6024 representing the content of dynamic graphic 6010B, including join option 6024-1 similar to join option 6010B-1. In some embodiments, header area 6004B-2 expands to include dynamic content 6024 in response to a scroll gesture in the opposite direction from input 6022. In some embodiments, even if the header area is not expanded (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6D), the join option 6024-1 (or the "leave" option, if desired) is persistently displayed in the header area 6004B-2. Jane's device 6000B detects input 6026 on the join option 6024-1 and, in response, joins the shared content session.

In FIG. 6F, John's device 6000A displays a notification 6028 indicating that Jane has joined the shared content session. In some embodiments, the notification (e.g., notification 6028) is displayed briefly and then automatically removed after a predetermined amount of time. In some embodiments, notifications associated with the shared content session (e.g., notifications generated by a system level application for hosting the shared content session) are displayed for a shorter period of time than standard notifications (e.g., text message notifications and/or email notifications) displayed at the device 6000. For example, a shared content session notification may be displayed for two seconds, while a standard notification is displayed for six seconds. In some embodiments, notifications associated with the shared content session are displayed with an animation effect, whereby the notification is displayed to animate from the share pill 6020 or the screen share pill 6021.

After joining the shared content session, Jane's device 6000B displays a control area 6015B and a message interface 6004B with a dynamic graphic 6010B updated based on Jane joining the shared content session. For example, the dynamic graphic 6010B indicates that two people are currently active in the shared content session (John and Jane have joined). The control area 6015B is similar to the control area 6015A and has been updated in FIG. 6F to indicate that two people have joined the shared content session.

In FIG. 6G, Ryan has now joined the shared content session. In response, Jane's device 6000B updates the dynamic graphic 6010B and control area 6015B to indicate that three people are active in the shared content session. As the control area 6015B is displayed, Jane's device 6000B suppresses the display of a notification announcing that Ryan has joined the shared content session. In some embodiments, Jane's device 6000B displays a notification that Ryan has joined the shared content session.

Referring to John's device 6000A in FIG. 6G, because the display of notification 6028 has not expired, John's device 6000A updates notification 6028 to indicate that Ryan has also joined. In some embodiments, notifications may be combined when appropriate. For example, instead of displaying separate notifications that Jane has joined and that Ryan has joined, the two notifications are combined (by updating notification 6028) into a single notification so that John's device 6000A does not display multiple notifications. Multiple notifications may be distracting and unhelpful to John and may cause unnecessary work for device 6000A. In some embodiments, notifications that became irrelevant (e.g., out of date) before being displayed are not displayed. For example, if Ken joined after Ryan but before notification 6028 was updated, instead of displaying the updated notification shown in FIG. 6G, John's device 6000A would have an updated notification 6028 to indicate that Jane and two others have joined the shared content session.

In some embodiments, John's device 6000A displays group status information (e.g., a group card) in response to the input 6030 on the notification 6028. In response to detecting the input 6032 on the shared pill 6020A, John's device 6000A displays the control area 6015A, as shown in FIG. 6H.

In FIG. 6H, John's device 6000A displays a control area 6015A, which has been updated since it was last displayed (in response to two people joining) to indicate that three people are active in the shared content session. The microphone 6003A is enabled (in some embodiments, by default) as indicated by microphone option 6015A-6. Thus, when John speaks to the group of climbers (as indicated by audio input 6035A), John's device 6000A receives John's voice as audio input and shares (e.g., transmits) the audio input with the other participants in the shared content session. Thus, Jane's device 6000B (as well as other devices participating in the shared content session) generates an audio output 6037B of John's audio (e.g., using speaker 6007B). The speaker (e.g., speaker 6007B) on Jane's device 6000B is enabled (in some embodiments, by default) and outputs the audio of John's voice, as indicated by speaker option 6015B-5. In this way, participants in a shared content session can talk to each other during the shared content session.

In response to detecting input 6034 on message option 6015A-4, John's device 6000A displays message interface 6004A, as shown in FIG. 6I. In FIG. 6I, Jane speaks to the group of climbers, as shown by audio input 6035B, and audio is output at the participant device (e.g., using speaker 6007A), as shown by audio output 6037A. John's device 6000A detects input 6036 on control area status area 6015A-1, and in response, displays group card interface 6038A, as shown in FIG. 6J.

In FIG. 6J, Ryan speaks to the group of climbers, as indicated by audio output 6037A and 6037B on John and Jane's devices 6000 (e.g., using speaker 6007). John's device 6000A displays a group card interface 6038A in response to input 6036, and in FIG. 6K, the group card interface is scrolled to display additional content in response to scroll input 6039. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A displays the group card interface 6038A in response to an input for a notification (e.g., input 6030 for notification 6028).

The group card interface 6038A provides information about the climber group and content output during the group's current and past shared content sessions, including identification information 6038A-1, such as logo, name, picture, etc. The group card interface 6038A includes status information 6040A (including a leave option 6040-1 selectable to leave the shared content session), a list of climber group members 6042A, and an add contact option 6044A selectable to add a contact to the climber group. The list of members 6042A includes the names of the other group members along with their respective member status information 6046. For example, in FIG. 6J, Ryan and Jane are shown as active participants in the shared content session. Ken is shown as invited because he has not yet accepted the invitation to join the shared content session. The group card interface also includes a reminder option 6048, which is displayed to group members who have not joined the shared content session and can be selected to generate a reminder (e.g., a ring, an alert, and/or a notification) on the member's device to remind the member to join the shared content session. The group card interface 6038A also includes a copy option 6050A, which can be selected to copy a link that can be sent to contacts to invite them to join the climber group. The group card interface 6038A also includes a content history 6052A, which shows content that has been previously output (or in some embodiments is currently being output) in a shared content session with the group. The group card interface 6038A also includes preferred (e.g., favorited) content 6054A that has been output during the shared content session. The group card interface content history 6052A and preferred content 6054A include an indication 6056 of the member who initiated the sharing of the particular content, or, in some embodiments, the member who favorited the particular content.

In FIG. 6K, Ken joins the shared content session. Accordingly, Ken's member list 6042-1 and status 6046-1 are updated to indicate that Ken is active in the shared content session. Additionally, control area 6015B and dynamic graphic 6010B are updated on Jane's device 6000B to indicate the change in parameters of the shared content session in response to Ken joining. In some embodiments, John and Jane's devices 6000 display notifications that Ken has joined the shared content session.

In FIG. 6L, John's device 6000A, in response to detecting input 6058 in FIG. 6K, displays a control area 6015A and a message interface 6004A with a dynamic graphic 6010A. The control area 6015A and dynamic graphic 6010A are updated to indicate that Ken has joined the shared content session, as are the control area and dynamic graphic on Jane's device 6000B.

Figures 6M-6X show exemplary user interfaces of an embodiment in which Jane initiates screen sharing with a group of climbers during a shared content session. In Figure 6M, Jane's device 6000B displays a browser interface 6060 and detects an input 6062 on a share pill 6020B. In Figure 6N, Jane's device 6000B displays a control area 6015B in response to the input 6062 and detects an input 6064 on a share option 6015B-8 to initiate screen sharing with a group of climbers.

In FIG. 6O, Jane's device 6000B replaces share option 6015B-8 with countdown 6066, which counts down the amount of time until Jane's device 6000B shares the contents of its screen with the group of climbers. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input 6068 on countdown 6066, Jane's device 6000B cancels the request to begin screen sharing and returns to the interface shown in FIG. 6N. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input on countdown 6066, Jane's device 6000B displays a notification with an option to confirm canceling the screen sharing request. If input 6068 is not detected, Jane's device 6000B begins sharing the contents of its screen at the end of the countdown, as shown in FIG. 6P.

At the end of the countdown, Jane's device 6000B begins sharing the contents of its screen with the members of the climber group and updates the control area 6015B to indicate the screen sharing status of Jane's device 6000B, as shown in FIG. 6P. For example, the status area 6015B-1 is updated to indicate that the climber group is viewing Jane's screen, and the share option 6015B-8 changes appearance to indicate that the screen content of Jane's device 6000B is being shared (e.g., output) to participants of the shared content session (e.g., members of the climber group). In some embodiments, the share option 6015B-8 is shown in bold when content other than the screen shared content is being output for the members participating in the shared content session (e.g., when media such as shows and/or music is being output as part of the shared content session).

John's device 6000A displays a screen sharing window 6070 and a notification 6072 indicating that Jane has started sharing the contents of her device's screen. In some embodiments, the notification 6072 is automatically dismissed after a predetermined amount of time. The screen sharing window 6070 is a real-time representation of the content currently displayed on Jane's device 6000B. Thus, since Jane's device 6000B is currently displaying a browser interface 6060, the screen sharing window 6070 includes a representation 6060' of the browser interface 6060. The screen sharing window 6070 is displayed on top of the home screen 6018 such that John's device 6000A displays the screen sharing window 6070 with the home screen 6018 in the background. In some embodiments, the screen sharing window 6070 is automatically displayed on top of the user interface currently displayed on John's device 6000A when the screen sharing begins. For example, if John's device 6000A is displaying a message interface 6004A when Jane's device 6000B begins sharing its screen, a screen sharing window 6070 will be displayed over the message interface.

The screen sharing window 6070 is displayed as a window that is optionally overlaid on another user interface (e.g., John's home screen 6018) and can be moved separately from the user interface in which it is displayed. In some embodiments, such a window is referred to herein as a picture-in-picture window or "PiP." In some embodiments, a PiP can include shared content, such as screen sharing content and/or synchronized content. In some embodiments, a PiP can include content independent of a shared content session, such as a video feed from a video conference (although in some embodiments, such a PiP may be displayed in association with a shared content session).

Figure 6P shows input 6074 to notification 6072 on John's device 6000A. Figure 6P also shows scroll input 6076 on browser interface 6060 and home input 6078 on home affordance 6077 on Jane's device 6000B. Ryan speaks to the group of climbers, as indicated by audio output 6037A and 6037B on John's and Jane's devices 6000.

6Q, in response to detecting scroll input 6078, Jane's device 6000B scrolls browser interface 6060, and in response to detecting home input 6078, Jane's device 6000B removes control area 6015B. In some embodiments, Jane's device 6000B automatically removes control area 6015B after a predetermined amount of time. In some embodiments, control area 6015 is displayed for a longer period of time than standard notifications (e.g., email notifications and/or text message notifications). For example, control area 6015 is displayed until intentionally removed by a user. When a device is sharing content on its screen and the control area is removed (e.g., hidden), the device displays a screen sharing pill 6021B, as shown on Jane's device 6000B in FIG. 6Q. In some embodiments, screen sharing pill 2021B has a different appearance than sharing pill 6020B, but is similar in function. For example, the screen share pill 6021B serves as a reminder to the user that a shared content session is in progress, but a different appearance indicates to the user that the user's device is sharing content on its screen via a shared content session. In some embodiments, the screen share pill 6021B can be selected to display the control area 6015B.

In FIG. 6Q, John's device 6000A displays control area 6015A in response to input 6074. To provide an unobstructed view of control area 6015A and screen content 6070, John's device 6000A automatically moves the position of screen sharing window 6070 on display 6001A. Because screen sharing window 6070 is a real-time representation of the contents of Jane's screen, as Jane scrolls the browser interface (via input 6076), screen sharing window 6070 is automatically scrolled to match the scroll position of browser interface 6060 on Jane's device 6000B. This is indicated by the scrolled appearance of representation 6060' in screen sharing window 6070 in FIG. 6Q.

In FIG. 6Q, John's device detects an input 6080 on the microphone option 6015A-6 to mute the microphone 6003A, and detects a drag input 6082 to move the position of the screen sharing window 6070 on the display 6001A. Jane's device 6000B detects a home input 6084 on the home affordance 6077B to dismiss the browser interface 6060 and display a home screen 6088, as shown in FIG. 6R. In some embodiments, a home gesture (e.g., similar to the home input 6078 or the home input 6084) causes John's device 6000A to dismiss the control area 6015A. In some embodiments, a home gesture (optionally detected after the control area is dismissed) causes John's device 6000A to dismiss the screen sharing window 6070 (e.g., hide its display).

In some embodiments, some notifications are suppressed while the control area 6015 is displayed. For example, in FIG. 6Q, Jane's device 6000B displays notification 6086 indicating that Ryan has left the shared content session, but a similar notification does not appear on John's device 6000A because the control area 6015A is displayed.

In FIG. 6R, John's device 6000A displays a screen sharing window 6070 with a position moved on the display in response to the drag input 6082. The screen sharing window 6070 is also updated to indicate that Jane has navigated to the home screen 6088 by displaying a representation 6088' of Jane's home screen 6088. In some embodiments, notifications from Jane's device 6000B are displayed in the screen sharing window 6070 on John's device 6000A. For example, in FIG. 6R, the screen sharing window 6070 includes a representation 6086' of the notification 6086. In some embodiments, the notification is not shared in the screen sharing window 6070. In some embodiments, the screen sharing window 6070 can be resized in response to various inputs, such as, for example, pinch and/or unpinch gestures. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A stores the moved and/or resized position of the screen sharing window 6070 such that when content (e.g., screen sharing content and/or media content output during the shared content session) is shared with John's device 6000A in the future, John's device 6000A displays the shared content in the moved and/or resized position.

John's device 6000A continues to display the control area 6015A, and John speaks while his microphone (e.g., microphone 6003A) for the shared content session is muted, as indicated by the mute glyph 6090. Thus, John's audio is not communicated in the shared content session, as indicated by the lack of output audio at Jane's device 6000B. John's device 6000A detects input 6092 on the screen sharing window 6070.

In FIG. 6R, Jane's device 6000B continues to display notification 6086 while input 6094 is detected on health application icon 6096. In FIG. 6S, Jane's device 6000B launches the health application in response to input 6094 and displays health interface 6102. John's device 6000A therefore updates the display of screen sharing window 6070 to show a representation 6102' of health interface 6102. John's device 6000A also displays chrome 6100, which includes identifier 6100-1 and extension icon 6100-2. Identifier 6100-1 indicates Jane's name and avatar, and indicates that the screen sharing window 6070 represents the content of Jane's device 6000B. The expand icon 6100-2 is selectable (e.g., in response to input 6104) to expand the screen sharing window 6070, for example, to an expanded display state (e.g., a full screen display state, or a state that uses all of the screen outside of a portion of the screen designated for system status information and/or system control). In some embodiments, the screen sharing window 6070 expands in response to a tap on the screen sharing window 6070 when the chrome 6100 is not displayed, rather than requiring a subsequent tap on the expand icon 6100-2.

In FIG. 6S, John's device 6000A removes control area 6015A and displays sharing pill 6020A. John's device 6000A displays sharing pill 6020A and Jane's device 6000B displays screen sharing pill 6021B, indicating that John's device is participating in a shared content session without sharing its screen, and that Jane's device 6000B is participating in a shared content session while sharing its screen with the participants of the shared content session.

John's device 6000A displays notification 6098 in response to detecting that John is speaking while his microphone is muted. Notifications similar to notification 6098 and notification 6086 were suppressed (e.g., stored in a queue) on John's device 6000A while control area 6015A was displayed. However, because control area 6015A is no longer displayed in FIG. 6S, John's device 6000A displays the previously suppressed and non-stale (e.g., expired or irrelevant) notifications. Notifications 6098 and 6086 (displayed on Jane's device) are not stale because the conditions triggering their display remain true and, optionally, the time allotted for displaying the notifications has not expired. In some embodiments, rather than displaying all non-stale notifications, John's device 6000A displays notifications based on the priority attributed to each notification, such that the notification with the highest priority is displayed first for a predetermined amount of time and then dismissed. The next highest priority notification is then displayed and then dismissed. In FIG. 6S, notification 6098 has a higher priority than the notification announcing that a participant is leaving the shared content session. Thus, when John's device 6000A hides control area 6015A, it displays notification 6098 but does not display the notification announcing that Ryan has left the shared content session. In some embodiments, the priority of notifications stored in the queue may change over time (e.g., notifications may become stale). For example, if the time allotted to display a notification expires before the notification is displayed, the notification is not displayed.

In some embodiments, notifications are prioritized in different tiers based on the type of notification. For example, notifications triggered by a user action are attributed the highest level of priority (e.g., Tier 1). Examples of user actions that trigger Tier 1 notifications include interactions with elements of the control area 6015 (e.g., audio routing, microphone on/off, camera on/off, local screen sharing on/off). A notification indicating that the microphone is muted is, in some embodiments, attributed a mid-level priority (e.g., Tier 2). Notification 6098 is an example of a Tier 2 notification. In some embodiments, notifications that are automatically triggered based on activity within a shared content session are attributed a lower level of priority (e.g., Tier 3). Examples of tier 2 notifications can include account updates (e.g., announcing that a user has joined a shared content session), notifications that content is being played only for the user of the device, notifications for applications supporting the shared content session application, playback actions, queue actions, remote screen sharing actions, and reminder notifications related to the shared content session (e.g., a reminder that members of a shared content session are still playing content after a user has stopped playing private content).

In some embodiments, some types of notifications replace each other when they are displayed. For example, notifications that content is "playing only for me," notifications associated with apps that support shared content sessions, play actions, queue actions, remote screen sharing actions, and reminder notifications related to shared content sessions replace each other and, in some embodiments, expire after 3 seconds. In some embodiments, some notifications can be merged and, optionally, do not have an expiration. For example, if five users join a shared content session, a single notification can be displayed indicating that one user and four others have joined.

In some embodiments, notifications related to play actions, queue actions, and remote share actions have a higher priority than reminder notifications related to shared content sessions. In some embodiments, notifications for apps that support shared content sessions have a higher priority than notifications related to play actions, queue actions, and remote share actions. In some embodiments, notifications that content is "playing just for me" have a higher priority than notifications for apps that support shared content sessions. In some embodiments, notifications related to account updates have a higher priority than notifications that content is "playing just for me".

In response to detecting the input 6104, John's device 6000A displays the screen sharing window 6070 in an expanded, expanded, and/or full screen state (or using all of the screen outside of the portion of the screen designated for system status information and/or system control), thereby presenting a full screen view of Jane's screen. The control area 6015A is displayed again when the screen sharing window 6070 is expanded, and indicates in the control area status area 6015A-1 that Jane is sharing her screen with members of the climber group. However, it should be understood that while Jane is sharing the content of her screen, the shared content may be manipulated on the individual devices viewing the content of her screen in the shared content session. For example, while John is viewing Jane's screen shared content in an expanded or full screen state, other participants in the shared content session may view Jane's screen shared content in a smaller window or PiP (similar to the screen sharing window 6070 of FIG. 6S) and have different display locations on their respective devices.

Because the content of Jane's screen is displayed in a full screen view, some of the content from Jane's device 6000B overlaps with some of the content displayed on John's device 6000A. For example, the representation 6021B' of the screen sharing pill 6021B appears layered under the clock 6106 in the status bar area of John's device 6000A. In some embodiments, other information in the status bar area of John's device (the area that contains the clock and other relevant information such as battery charge indications and signal strength indicators) overlaps with the corresponding area from Jane's device. In some embodiments, the home affordances 6077B from Jane's device overlap with the home affordances 6077A on John's device. In some embodiments, the content from Jane's screen is shown blurred and is below the content in John's status area. For example, the representation 6021B' is shown blurred (indicated by hatching) and is below John's clock 6106. In some embodiments, Jane's content is shown displayed over John's content, either blurred or unblurred.

In FIG. 6T, Jane's device 6000B continues to display the health interface 6102 and dismisses the notification 6086 (e.g., after a predetermined amount of time has passed). On John's device 6000A, the control area 6015A is dismissed to display the chrome 6100 in response to the input 6108, as shown in FIG. 6U. In FIG. 6U, John's device 6000A dismisses the control area 6015A and displays the share pill 6020A and chrome 6100, including the identifier 6100-1 and the shrink icon 6100-3. The shrink icon 6100-3 can be selected to shrink the screen sharing window 6070 from a full screen view in FIG. 6U to a PiP as shown in FIG. 6S. In some embodiments, a home gesture (e.g., a swipe up on the home affordance 6077A) causes the device 6000A to shrink the screen sharing window 6070 from a full screen view to a PiP view. The sharing pill 6020A is displayed on the screen share content from Jane's device (e.g., a representation 6021B' of the screen sharing pill 6021B) in a manner similar to that described above with respect to the clock 6106. John's device 6000A dismisses the chrome 6100 in response to the input 6110. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A automatically dismisses the chrome 6100 after displaying the chrome for a predetermined amount of time.

In FIG. 6U, Jane's device 6000B detects input 6112 on screen sharing pill 6021B and, in response, displays control area 6015B, as shown in FIG. 6V. Control area status area 6015B-1 indicates that climbers are viewing Jane's screen. Jane can select share option 6015B-8 (which has a bold appearance indicating screen sharing is active) to stop sharing her screen with the climber group. Jane can select leave option 6015B-9 to leave the shared content session and end screen sharing with the climber group.

In FIG. 6V, John's device 6000A displays privacy indicators 6118 indicating that a particular component of John's device (e.g., camera 6002A and/or microphone 6003A) is currently or recently in use. Privacy indicators 6118 may be displayed in embodiments shown in other figures described herein.

FIG. 6W illustrates John and Jane's devices 6000 when Jane selects share option 6015B-8 in response to input 6116. Specifically, Jane's device 6000B stops sharing its screen content with the Climbers group, as indicated by the unbolded appearance of share option 6015B-8 and the updated control area status area 6015B-1, noting that three people are now active in the Climbers group (as a result of Ryan leaving the shared content session). John's device 6000A stops displaying the screen sharing window 6070 (returning to the home screen 6018) and displays a notification 6120 indicating that Jane has stopped sharing her screen. The sharing pill 6020A indicates that John's device 6000A is still participating in the shared content session, even though Jane's screen sharing has stopped. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A displays a group card interface 6038A in response to input 6122 to the notification 6120.

FIG. 6X illustrates John and Jane's devices 6000 when Jane selects leave option 6015B-9 in response to input 6114. Specifically, Jane's device 6000B stops sharing its screen content with the climber group and leaves (e.g., disconnects or stops participating) the shared content session, as indicated by not displaying control area 6015B or sharing pill 6020B. John's device 6000A stops displaying screen sharing window 6070 and displays notification 6124 indicating that Jane has left the shared content session. Although Jane's device has left the shared content session, John's device continues to remain in the shared content session, as indicated by sharing pill 6020A.

6Y-6DG illustrate various embodiments related to sharing media in a shared content session. In FIG. 6Y, John's device 6000A displays a home screen 6018 while a shared content session is not active. John's device 6000A detects an input 6126 selecting a TV app icon 6128 and, in response, displays a TV app interface 6130 of FIG. 6Z. The TV app interface 6130 includes media options 6134 and 6138 that indicate media content, such as shows or movies, that are available to view on John's device 6000A. In some embodiments, a glyph 6132 is displayed to indicate media content that may be shared through the shared content session, i.e., the media content may be played on John's device 6000A while the media content is simultaneously being played on other devices participating in the shared content session, as discussed in more detail below.

In FIG. 6Z, John's device 6000A detects input 6136 to select media option 6138, a TV program named "TV Show 3" that can be played on John's device 6000A but cannot be shared in a shared content session. In some embodiments, the program may not be able to be shared because, for example, the application used to play the media content does not support playback in a shared content session or the content is restricted from being shared in a shared content session.

In response to the input 6136, John's device 6000A displays a launch interface 6140 for launching playback of the media content selected in the TV app interface 6130. As shown in FIG. 6AA, the launch interface 6140 includes a media identification 6142, such as the name of the program, and optionally other details of the selected media content. The launch interface includes a play option 6144 that includes text prompting the user to play the selected media content. The launch interface also includes icons or badges 6146 that indicate various aspects of the selected media content.

In FIG. 6AA, John's device 6000A detects input 6148 of play option 6144 and, in response, begins playing "TV Program 3" as shown in FIG. 6AB. As playback of "TV Program 3" begins, John's device displays media 6150A, playback controls 6152A, and chrome 6154. Media 6150A displays the media content being played on John's device 6000A. Media 6150A may have a fixed position in an extended or full screen view (or using all of the screen outside of a portion of the screen designated for system status information and/or system control) or may be displayed as a PiP that may be positioned on various user interfaces as described herein. In FIG. 6AB, media 6150A is displayed in an extended state while John's device 6000A is in portrait orientation. However, in some embodiments, if John's device 6000A is rotated to landscape orientation while the media 6150A is in extended view, the media 6150A expands to a full screen view, or an extended view that is larger than the view shown in FIG. 6AB. For simplicity, the displayed representation of the media is referred to below as the media PiP 6150A, which may be used to refer to the media in extended view or PiP format, depending on the context.

As shown in FIG. 6AB, the media PiP 6150A is displaying content for "TV Program 3." Audio 6155A associated with "TV Program 3" is being output at John's device 6000A (e.g., using speaker 6007A). Playback controls 6152A present information regarding the playback of the content and various controls selectable to control the playback of the content displayed on the media PiP 6150A. For example, tab 6152A-1 indicates a playback status for the duration of the media content and is selectable to scrub the media content (e.g., move the playback location of the media content in response to inputs). The pause affordance 6152A-2 is selectable to pause playback of the media content, the play affordance 6152A-4 is selectable to resume playback of the media content, and the transfer option 6152A-3 is selectable to transfer playback from John's device 6000A to another device, such as the TV 6500 shown in FIG. 6CS. The chrome 6154 includes various selectable options for ending playback of the media content, changing the visual state of the media PiP 6150A (e.g., undock the media PiP from the interface shown in FIG. 6AA), changing the display size or orientation of the media content, and adjusting the playback volume of the media content. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A automatically removes the chrome 6154 and playback controls 6152A after a predetermined amount of time.

In FIG. 6AC, John's device 6000A receives a video call from Jane's device, as indicated by call banner 6158. When the video call is received, John's device automatically pauses playback of "TV Program 3," as indicated in FIG. 6AC. In response to input 6160 on acceptance affordance 6162, John's device accepts the incoming call from Jane.

When the video call with Jane ends a few minutes later (as indicated by clock 6106), John can resume playback of "TV Program 3," which remained paused since the incoming video call was received, by selecting play affordance 6152A-4 via input 6164, as shown in FIG. 6AD.

John's device 6000A is shown in FIG. 6AE having resumed playback of "TV Program 3." John's device detects input 6166 on end option 6154-1, which is selectable to end playback of the media content. In response, John's device 6000A stops playback of "TV Program 3" and displays TV app interface 6130, as shown in FIG. 6AF.

6AG-6AI show user interfaces of an embodiment in which John's device initiates a shared content session with the climbers group from a video conference interface. In FIG. 6AG, John's device displays a message interface 6004A and detects an input 6168 on a video conference option 6006-2. Jane's device 6000B displays a home screen 6088. Neither John nor Jane's device 6000 is in a shared content session. In response to the input 6168, John's device initiates a video conference between members of the climbers group. In some embodiments, when a video conference is in progress, the video conference option 6006-2 is selectable to display a video conference interface for the ongoing video conference.

6AH shows John and Jane's devices 6000 in a video conference session with members of the climber group. John's device 6000A displays a video conference interface 6170A with Jane's video feed in tile 6172, Ryan's video feed in tile 6174, a camera preview 6182 (e.g., a video feed from John's camera 6002A), and controls 6180A. The controls 6180A include various control options selectable to control various aspects of the video conference, such as enabling or disabling the camera or microphone and ending the video conference. The controls 6180A also include a share option 6180A-1 selectable to initiate a shared content session with members of the climber group. Jane's device 6000B displays a video conferencing interface 6170B with John's video feed in tile 6176, Ryan's video feed in tile 6178 (similar to tile 6174 on John's device), a camera preview 6184 (e.g., a video feed from Jane's camera 6002B), and controls 6180B. John's device 6000A detects input 6186 on share option 6180A-1 and, in response, initiates a shared content session with the group of climbers.

As shown in FIG. 6AI, a shared content session is now active between John, Jane, and Ryan, as indicated by the display of the control area 6015. Additionally, the control area status area 6015-1 on John and Jane's devices 6000 indicates that three participants (Jane, John, and Ryan) are active in the shared content session. When the control area 6015 is displayed, John and Jane's devices 6000 move and/or shrink their video feeds to correspond to the display of the control area 6015 without obscuring their respective video feeds with the control area. The control area options 6015-5, 6015-6, and 6015-7 are bolded to indicate that for each respective device, the audio channel is active, the microphone is not muted, and a video conference session is in progress. John's device 6000A detects the home gesture 6188 and Jane's device 6000B detects input 6189 on the message option 6015B-4.

In FIG. 6AJ, John's device displays home screen 6018 and Jane's device displays message interface 6004B including dynamic graphic 6010B indicating that a shared content session was initiated from John. Even though the shared content session was not initiated from a message application (John initiated the shared content session from video conference interface 6170A), the dynamic graphic is added to message display area 6004B-3 of the message interface. Thus, members of the climber group can quickly and conveniently access the dynamic graphic by displaying the message interface. FIG. 6AJ shows input 6190 on TV app icon 6128 and input 6194 on photo app icon 6192. Jane's device 6000B detects input 6196 on video conference option 6015B-7 to display video conference interface 6170B. In some embodiments, video PiP 6245 (or video PiP 6235) can be selected (e.g., via input 6197) to display video conference interface 6170B.

6AK shows John's device 6000A displaying a photo interface 6198 in response to input 6196, and Jane's device 6000B displaying a videoconferencing interface 6170B in response to input 6196. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6AK, the photo app does not support sharing content through a shared content session. Thus, because John's device 6000A is currently in an ongoing shared content session, the device displays banner 6200 to inform John that content in the photo app is not available for sharing (this banner is not displayed when photo interface 6198 is displayed and John's device is not in a shared content session).

In response to detecting the input 6204 on the video 6202, John's device 6000A displays a notification 6206 indicating that the selected content cannot be shared with the climbers. In some embodiments, John can select "OK" to continue playing the video privately on John's device, i.e., the content plays on John's device without the content being played on other devices in the shared content session (if John's device was not in the shared content session, the device would have played the content without displaying the notification 6206). In some embodiments, the content that cannot be played together in the shared content session can be shared with the participants of the shared content session by sharing John's screen while the content is playing privately on John's device. In some embodiments, a notification 6208 is displayed to inform the user that the content can be displayed for others using screen sharing. In some embodiments, the notification 6208 is selectable to initiate a screen sharing session (e.g., optionally displaying a control area 6015A) to share the selected content. As John's device plays the selected content, John's screen (and optionally audio) is transmitted to the participants of the shared content session via screen sharing. In some embodiments, the content shared via screen sharing has reduced quality (e.g., video and/or audio quality) due to compression of the audio and/or video data to accommodate bandwidth constraints associated with sharing the content from the host device to the participating devices. On the other hand, when media content is shared such that each respective device accesses the media content separately (e.g., from a remote server), the devices can play the content at a higher quality since the content has not been compressed for transmission as in the case of screen shared content. An exemplary embodiment of sharing media content in this higher quality manner is described in more detail below.

FIG. 6AM shows John's device 6000A displaying a TV app interface 6130 in response to input 6190. Because John's device is participating in a shared content session, John's device displays a notification 6210 inviting John to watch content from the TV app of the climbers group. In some embodiments, the notification 6210 is not displayed if John's device is not in a shared content session, as shown in FIG. 6Z, or if he is unable to share content within the app, as shown in FIG. 6AK. The notification 6210 includes a climber logo 6213 indicating that the notification contains information related to a shared content session with climbers, and a TV glyph 6212 indicating that the information is related to a TV app used to select and/or play content for the shared content session. In some embodiments, the TV glyph 6212 (or other glyph determined by the associated application) is displayed within the control area 6015 (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6AS). In some embodiments, the notification 6210 is displayed temporarily. In some embodiments, a notification containing information about what will happen when media is played using the application is displayed whenever control area 6015 is displayed (e.g., floating below control area 6015). Examples of such notifications include notification 6200 and notification 6210. In some embodiments, notification 6210 is displayed as a banner associated with the application that supports or enables the shared content session. In some embodiments, other notifications are displayed as part of this banner. In some embodiments, updated versions of the banner are referred to herein as different notifications.

In some embodiments, the TV app interface 6130 recommends content for viewing based on the subscriptions of the climber group participants. For example, if some members of the climber group subscribe to a particular content provider, content from that provider is recommended (e.g., under the "What to Watch" section). In some embodiments, the TV app interface 6130 recommends content that can be shared in a shared content session. For example, in FIG. 6AM, John's device 6000A indicates that "First Episode" is recommended for viewing with the climber group. Media option 6214 corresponds to the TV program "First Episode," which is shareable via a shared content session, as indicated by glyph 6132. In FIG. 6AM, John speaks to the climber group and selects media option 6214 via input 6216 to select "First Episode" for playback for the climber group, as indicated by audio input 6035A and output audio 6037B.

In FIG. 6AN, John's device 6000A displays a launch interface 6140 with a media identification 6142, a play option 6144, and a badge 6146 associated with the selected TV program "First Episode." In some embodiments, the appearance of various elements displayed in a particular application changes depending on whether the device displaying the application's interface is in a shared content session. For example, in FIG. 6AN, the play option 6144 is shown with text stating "Watch Together" to indicate that playing the media content will cause the media to be played for the group in the shared content session. Additionally, the badge 6146 includes a glyph 6132 indicating that the selected media content ("First Episode") can be played with the group via a shared content session.

In FIG. 6AN, John's device 6000A detects input 6218 for play option 6144. Jane's device 6000B removes the display of control area 6015B (e.g., after a predetermined amount of time) and the video feed returns to its original (e.g., default) size. In some embodiments, the sharing pill 6020 is displayed within the video conference interface 6170 once the control area 6015 is removed. In response to the input 6218, John's device 6000A displays a prompt 6220 to John with options to indicate whether the media should be played for the group participants (e.g., option 6220-1), only on John's device (e.g., option 6220-2), or whether to cancel the play request (e.g., option 6220-3). In some embodiments, John's device 6000A begins playing the program for the group in response to the input 6218 (without displaying the prompt 6220). In some embodiments, John's device 6000A remembers which option was selected (e.g., play for the group or play for John's device only) and automatically applies the selected option for future requests to play media (e.g., without displaying prompt 6220). In some embodiments, the selected option is stored per application, such that the user is prompted for each individual application (e.g., the first time playback is requested for an individual application). In some embodiments, the user is prompted in a single application and the selected option is applied across all applications. In some embodiments, the selected option is stored for the current shared content session and the user is prompted again in future shared content sessions. In some embodiments, the selected option is stored for future shared content sessions. In some embodiments, John's device displays a notification that the selected option was stored from a previous selection. In some embodiments, a notification that the selected option was stored from a previous selection is displayed in place of prompt 6220 and may be optionally selected to display an option to change the selected option for the current playback request. In some embodiments, if option 6220-2 is selected, prompt 6220 is displayed the next time a playback request (e.g., input 6218) is received. In some embodiments, when option 6220-1 is selected, the next time a playback request (e.g., input 6218) is received, prompt 6220 is not displayed.

FIG. 6AP shows John's device and Jane's device 6000 in response to input 6222 on option 6220-2 "Play Just for Me." In this embodiment, John's device 6000A begins playing "First Episode" privately (not in a shared content session). Because John selected to play "First Episode" only on John's device 6000A, "First Episode" is not added to the shared content session for playback by Jane and Ryan's devices. Thus, while John's device is shown playing "First Episode" in FIG. 6AP, Jane's device 6000B continues to display the videoconferencing interface 6170B without playing "First Episode." John's device displays a notification 6226 to inform John that "First Episode" is only being played to his device and not to other members of the climber group. The notification 6226 includes John's avatar 6225, indicating that the content of the notification is relevant to John (as opposed to the climber group). John's device outputs audio 6156A for "First Episode" (e.g., using speaker 6007A) and plays the media PiP 6150A program. While "First Episode" is playing, John's device 6000A remains in the shared content session. Thus, the audio channel remains active, and John's device outputs audio from Jane (e.g., using speaker 6007A), as indicated by audio output 6037A and audio input 6035B.

FIG. 6AQ depicts John and Jane's devices 6000 in response to input 6224 on option 6220-1 "Play for Group." In this embodiment, "First Episode" is added to the shared content session so that it can be played on each device participating in the shared content session. In contrast to screen sharing content, where content is sent from the host device (also called the shared device) to other participant devices, media content is shared with the participant devices, which initiates a synchronized playback process that results in data that allows the participant devices to access and/or play (with synchronized playback between participant devices) the content added to the shared content session in a synchronized manner. Thus, the devices participating in the shared content session initiate playback of "First Episode" on their respective devices by separately accessing the "First Episode" content from a TV app installed on each device. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6AQ, the TV app is installed on Jane's device 6000B, and Jane has previously purchased or otherwise obtained any subscriptions required to view "First Episode." However, if Jane's device did not have the required applications or subscriptions, Jane's device 6000B prompts Jane to obtain the applications and/or subscriptions, as described in more detail below.

In some embodiments, when a video call or video conference session is active while content is being shared in a shared content session, representations of the participants in the video call are displayed simultaneously with the representation of the shared content. For example, in FIG. 6AQ, John and Jane's devices 6000 are video conference in a shared content session with climbers. Thus, John's device displays video PiP 6235 simultaneously with media PiP 6150A. Because Jane's device already shows the video feed of the remote participant in the video conference interface 6170B, Jane's device does not display an additional representation of the remote participant in the video call. In some embodiments, the participant depicted in the video PiP is the remote participant who is currently the most active or most recently active in the shared content session. In FIG. 6AQ, John's device 6000A displays Jane's video feed in video PiP 6235 because Jane is the most active (or most recently active) participant based on her activity speaking to the group of climbers in FIG. 6AP. In some embodiments, when a different remote participant becomes most active or most recently active, the representation of the previously most active participant is replaced with the representation of the newly active participant. In some embodiments, the representation of the remote participant is an avatar, name, photo, or other identifying element. In some embodiments, when the media PiP is displayed docked (e.g., as shown on John's device 6000A in FIG. 6AQ) in full screen or extended display mode, the video PiP is displayed separately from the media PiP. In some embodiments, when the media PiP is displayed undocked (e.g., as a PiP overlaid on a separate user interface), the representation of the remote participant can be displayed in a smaller PiP overlaid on the media PiP, as described in more detail below.

As content is added to a shared content session, playback of the individual content is synchronized at each device such that each device separately outputs the content with the same playback state (e.g., playback time, playback location, playback state, and/or paused state). For example, in FIG. 6AQ, John's device 6000A and Jane's device 6000B are both playing "First Episode" in their respective media pips 6150A and 6150B at an elapsed playback time of 0:02, and both devices are outputting audio 6156 for "First Episode" (e.g., using speaker 6007). If Ryan's device also has the associated app and subscription, then Ryan's device is also playing "First Episode" at elapsed playback time 0:02.

In addition to starting playback of "First Episode," John's device 6000A displays notification 6288 in response to input 6224 to inform John that he has started playing "First Episode" for the climbers group. In some embodiments, notification 6288 can be selected to display control area 6015A.

In response to "First Episode" being added to the shared content session, Jane's device 6000B begins local playback of the program using a TV app installed on Jane's device, including displaying media PiP 6150B, beginning playback of "First Episode," and optionally displaying a notification 6230 informing Jane that John has started playing "First Episode" for the mountain climbers group. In some embodiments, when the notification (e.g., notification 6230) is displayed, the device shifts the location of media PiP 6150 (and, optionally, other elements on the display, such as the video feed in FIG. 6AQ) to avoid media PiP 6150 overlapping with the notification (and other elements on the display). In some embodiments, notification 6230 can be selected (e.g., via input 6232) to display control area 6015B, as shown in FIG. 6AS. When the media PiP 6150B is displayed simultaneously with the videoconferencing interface 6070B, Jane's device 6000B moves and/or resizes the tiles 6176 and 6178, and optionally the camera preview 6184, to allow an unobstructed view of the media PiP 6150B along with the video feed. In some embodiments, the media PiP 6150B can be moved on the display and the array of video feeds automatically resize and/or move as they are displaced by the movement of the media PiP 6150B. In some embodiments, the media PiP 6150B can be resized and/or docked to the side of the displayed interface. For example, in response to a drag input 6234, Jane's device displays the media PiP in a minimized and docked state 6150B-1, as shown in FIG. 6AR. The minimized and docked media PiP can be moved on the display (e.g., up or down a vertical edge of the display) and/or undocked in response to an input on the minimized and docked PiP, such as input 6236 in FIG. 6AR.

In some embodiments, John's device 6000A displays the playing content in the interface shown in FIG. 6AQ and removes the playback controls 6152A after a predetermined amount of time without removing the notification 6228 (e.g., banner), as shown in FIG. 6AR.

As Jane and the rest of the climber group watch "First Episode" separately on their respective devices, the shared content session allows members of the group to continue to interact through various communication channels, such as video conferencing, messaging, and speaking directly to each other via an audio channel associated with the shared content session.

In FIG. 6AS, playback of "First Episode" continues on John and Jane's devices 6000 (and Ryan's device). After a predetermined amount of time has passed, John's device 6000A removes the notification 6288 and reveals the chrome 6154. After an additional amount of time, John's device removes the chrome 6154 and playback controls 6152, as shown in FIG. 6AT. In some embodiments, the notification 6288 is displayed as a banner for applications that support or enable a shared content session. In some embodiments, this banner is persistently displayed to indicate that other users are viewing the content, even after the chrome 6154 and playback controls 6152 are removed.

Jane's device 6000B displays control area 6015B in response to input 6234. To accommodate the display of control area 6015B, Jane's device moves media PiP 6150B down on the screen, and also resizes and/or moves the video feed and, optionally, camera preview 6184, as shown in FIG. 6AS. Control area 6015B includes a TV glyph 6212 to indicate that the TV app is being used in the shared content session (to play "First Episode").

Jane speaks to the group of climbers, as indicated by the input audio 6035B and audio output 6037A. Jane's device 6000B detects the input 6238 on the message option 6015B-4 and in response displays a message interface 6004B while continuing to display the media PiP 6150B, as shown in FIG. 6AT. The message interface 6004B includes a dynamic graphic 6010B that is updated to indicate that the group of climbers is watching "First Episode." Because Jane's device 6000B is no longer displaying the videoconferencing interface 6170B, Jane's device displays a mini PiP 6243 overlaid on the media PiP 6150B. The mini PiP 6243 is similar to the video PiP 6235, except that it is smaller in size and is displayed overlaid on the media PiP 6150B. Because John is the most active (or most recently active) remote participant with respect to Jane's device 6000B, the mini PiP 6243 includes a representation of John, i.e., John's video feed from the ongoing video conference.

In FIG. 6AT, the devices are playing "First Episode," as shown in respective media PiPs 6150A and 6150B. John's device 6000A detects input 6240 on media PiP 6150A. Jane's device 6000B detects input 6242 on media PiP 6150B. In response to input 6240, John's device re-displays notification 6228 (e.g., a banner for a shared application) and playback controls 6152A. In response to input 6242, Jane's device 6000B displays the interface depicted in FIG. 6AU, including playback controls 6152B and a notification 6244 (similar to banner or notification 6228) indicating that the climber is watching "First Episode." In FIG. 6AU, Jane's device displays an expanded view of the media PiP 6150B (e.g., a full-screen view (or using all of the screen outside of the portion of the screen designated for system status information and/or system control)), and thus displays a representation of the most active (or most recently active) remote participant in the video PiP 6245 (similar to the video PiP 6235).

When content is being shared in a shared content session, each respective participant can control playback of the shared content on their respective devices, which in turn control playback of the shared content on other devices participating in the shared content session. For example, in FIG. 6AU, Jane pauses "First Episode" via input 6246 on pause affordance 6152B-2. In response to detecting input 6246, Jane's device 6000B pauses playback of "First Episode" on Jane's device 6000B, which causes playback of "First Episode" to be paused on other devices in the shared content session. FIG. 6AV shows "First Episode" being paused on John's device 6000A and Jane's device 6000B. Even though Jane's device 6000B did not initiate playback of "First Episode" for the group of climbers, Jane's device 6000B (and other devices participating in the shared content session) can control playback of the shared content for other participants in the shared content session.

As shown in FIG. 6AV, John's device 6000A displays a notification 6248 informing John that Jane has paused playback of "First Episode." The notification 6248 includes Jane's avatar 6254, indicating that Jane is the participant who changed the playback state, and a TV glyph 6212, indicating that a change has occurred to the content shared using the TV app. In response to an input 6252 on the notification 6248, John's device 6000A displays a control area 6015A, as shown in FIG. 6AW. Similarly, Jane's device 6000B pauses "First Episode" and displays a notification 6250 informing Jane that Jane has paused "First Episode" for the climbers group. In some embodiments, tapping the notification 6250 causes Jane's device 6000B to display a control area 6015B. In response to the home input 6256, Jane's device displays the home screen 6088 while continuing to display the media PiP 6150B, as shown in FIG. 6AW. In some embodiments, a subsequent home input (e.g., a home input while Jane's device is displaying the home screen 6088 and the media PiP 6150B) causes Jane's device 6000B to hide the media PiP 6150B.

In FIG. 6AW, John's device 6000A detects input 6258 and, in response, resumes playing the Climbers' "First Episode," as shown in FIG. 6AX. John's device 6000A resumes playing "First Episode" and displays a notification 6260 (e.g., a banner) informing John that John has resumed playing the Climbers' "First Episode." Playback also resumes on Jane's device 6000B, and Jane's device displays a notification 6262 informing Jane that John has resumed playing "First Episode." Jane's device detects input 6266 on notification 6262 and, in response, displays control area 6015B, as shown in FIG. 6AY. When the control area 6015B is displayed, the position of the media PiP 6150B is moved on Jane's screen to allow an unobstructed view of both the control area and the media PiP.

Jane's device 6000B dismisses the control area 6015B and the media PiP 6150B in response to the home gesture 6268 and displays the share pill 6020B as shown in FIG. 6AZ. In some embodiments, the control area 6015B is dismissed in response to the home gesture 6268 and a subsequent home gesture to dismiss the media PiP 6150B is detected. In some embodiments, the media PiP 6150B is dismissed in response to the home gesture 6268 and a subsequent home gesture to dismiss the control area 6015B is detected.

In some embodiments, the PiP can be moved, resized, or otherwise manipulated. For example, in FIGS. 6AX-6AZ, John's device moves video PiP 6235 to a different location on the screen in response to input 6263, and minimizes or docks video PiP 6235 in response to gesture 6265. The minimized or docked state of video PiP 6235 can be selected, for example, as shown in FIG. 6AY.

In FIG. 6BA, Ryan speaks to the group of climbers and pauses playback of the group. John and Jane's devices 6000 pause playback of "First Episode" and display notifications 6270 and 6272, respectively, to indicate that Ryan has paused "First Episode" for the group of climbers. The notifications include Ryan's avatar 6271. Because Ryan is currently the most active (or most recently active) remote participant for John's device 6000A, John's device updates video PiP 6235 to display Ryan's video feed from the ongoing video conferencing session. Similarly, Jane's device updates miniPiP 6243 to include Ryan's video feed. In some embodiments, the PiP or miniPiP may be at least partially hidden behind a notification or banner. In some embodiments, the device moves the position of the miniPiP on the media PiP when a banner or notification is displayed so that the miniPiP is not hidden behind the banner or notification.

In response to input 6274 on notification 6272, Jane's device displays media PiP 6150B of FIG. 6BB. As the media PiP is displayed, Jane's device also displays notification 6276 indicating that three people are viewing the shared content in a shared content session with the climbers group. Jane resumes playback of "First Episode" with input 6278. In some embodiments, notification 6276 is not displayed.

In FIG. 6BC, "First Episode" resumes on the devices participating in the shared content session, and the devices display notifications (e.g., notifications 6280 and 6282) indicating that Jane has resumed "First Episode" for the climbers group. It should be understood that Jane's device and John's device may be similar to other devices participating in the shared content session, and actions performed on Jane's device and/or John's device may also be performed on other devices participating in the shared content session, such as Ryan's device.

6BC-6BE illustrate an embodiment in which John scrubs through playback of the Climbers group's "First Episode." In FIG. 6BC, John's device 6000A detects input 6284 on tab 6152A-1. Input 6284 is a touch-and-drag input to scrub "First Episode." As John drags tab 6152A-1, John's device pauses playback of the Climbers group's "First Episode" and scrubs through the program. Thus, "First Episode" is shown paused on Jane's device 6000B (and other devices participating in the shared content session) and tab 6152-1 is moved on both John's device and Jane's device as John is scrubbing. John's device 6000A displays a notification 6286 informing John that he is scrubbing or moving the content for the Climbers group. Jane's device 6000B displays a notification 6288 different from notification 6286, informing Jane that John has paused playback. In some embodiments, Jane's device displays a notification that John has moved or is moving playback. In some embodiments, John's device displays a notification that John has paused playback for the Climbers. As John scrubs, images from "First Episode" are shown in the media PIP 6150 as John moves (e.g., forward and/or backward) through the content.

In FIG. 6BE, input 6284 is terminated and the device resumes playing "First Episode." John's device 6000A displays a notification 6290 informing John that he has moved playback for the climbers group. Jane's device 6000B displays a notification 6292 indicating that John has moved playback of the program. In some embodiments, Jane's device displays a notification that John has resumed playback.

6BF-6BJ illustrate an embodiment in which, during a shared content session, John stops playing the shared content to privately view the content on John's device 6000A. In FIG. 6BF, John's device 6000A is in a shared content session watching "First Episode" with a group of climbers. John's device 6000A displays a message interface 6294, which is a message conversation with John's mother, while "First Episode" is playing on the media PiP 6150A. John's device 6000A displays a mini-PiP 6295 that includes a representation of Jane (e.g., a video feed of Jane). Jane's device 6000B is displaying a home screen 6088 and is playing "First Episode" on the media PiP 6150B. John's device detects an input 6298 on video 6296, which is a video sent to John from his mother via message interface 6294.

In response to input 6298, John's device 6000A stops playing "First Episode" and begins playing video 6296 from his mother, including outputting audio 6302 from video 6296 (e.g., using speaker 6007A). Because video 6296 is not content that can be shared in a shared content session (e.g., the video is not available to members of the climber group because it is a video sent only to John's device 6000A), John's device begins playing video 6296 only on John's device 6000A, while other participants in the shared content session continue to watch "First Episode," as shown on Jane's device 6000B. John's device remains in the shared content session (connected), as shown by sharing pill 6020A. Thus, John's device can still communicate with members of the climber group (e.g., via an audio channel and/or a video conferencing interface). In some embodiments, John's device 6000A stops playing the shared content (optionally while remaining in the shared content session) in response to another event, such as, for example, receiving an incoming call. Because John is no longer viewing content in the shared content session, he becomes less active in the shared content session than Ryan. Thus, Jane's device replaces John's video feed in the mini PiP 6243 with Ryan's video feed.

When John's device 6000A begins playing the video 6296, John's device displays a notification 6300 indicating that the video is being played only to John and therefore not shared with the climber group. The notification 6300 includes a message glyph 6304 indicating that the video is being played using a Messages app.

In FIG. 6BH, John's device 6000A displays control area 6015A in response to input 6306 on sharing pill 6020A. In some embodiments, John's device displays prompt 6312 along with control area 6015A to prompt John to resume viewing the shared content with the group of climbers (and/or to serve as a reminder that the shared content is still ongoing in the shared content session). In some embodiments, John's device 6000A resumes playing "First Episode" in response to input 6308 on control area status area 6015A-1 or in response to input 6310 on open affordance 6314 displayed along with prompt 6312.

As previously discussed, while John is privately viewing video 6296 on John's device 6000A, John's device remains connected to the shared content session and is able to communicate with members of the climber group through the shared content session. In FIG. 6BH, Jane speaks to members of the climber group and corresponding audio is output at John's device 6000A as shown by audio input 6035B and output audio 6037A. In some embodiments, output audio 6037A is generated while John's device is simultaneously outputting audio 6302 from video 6296.

In FIG. 6BI, John's device 6000A ends playback of video 6296 and, in response, displays a notification 6316 reminding John that the group of climbers is still watching "First Episode" in the shared content session and inviting John to resume watching "First Episode" with the group of climbers. John's device resumes playback of the shared content "First Episode" in response to an input 6318 on the notification 6316, as shown in FIG. 6BJ. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A automatically resumes playback of the shared content when playback of the private content (e.g., video 6296) ends.

When John's device 6000A resumes playing the shared content of FIG. 6BJ, playback resumes for John's device at the same point in the program currently being output to the members of the climber group, not the time John stopped playing the shared content. In other words, the program continues to play for the climber group while John's device was not playing "First Episode," and instead of picking up where John left off in "First Episode," John's device resumes playback at the elapsed time in "First Episode" that is currently being viewed by the other members of the climber group. Because John continues to view content in the shared content session, John is more active, or more recently active, in the shared content session than Ryan. Thus, Jane's device replaces Ryan's video feed in the miniPiP 6243 with John's video feed.

6BK-6BU show an example embodiment in which Jane modifies the content shared with the climbers group. In these embodiments, the climbers group is not participating in an ongoing video conferencing session. Thus, the video PiP 6235 and the mini PiP 6243 are not displayed by the respective devices. In FIG. 6BK, the climbers group is currently watching "First Episode" as shown on John and Jane's devices 6000. Jane's device 6000B displays a control area 6015B and a media PiP 6150B in a message interface 6004B along with a dynamic graphic 6010B. The control area status area 6015B-1 and the dynamic graphic 6010B indicate that the climbers group is watching "First Episode." In response to detecting an input 6322 in the control area status area 6015B-1, Jane's device 6000B displays a group card interface 6038B. In some embodiments, the group card interface is displayed in response to an input on the dynamic graphic 6010B (an input on the information 6010B-2 in the dynamic graphic 6010B, but not on the leave option 6010B-3 selectable to end the shared content session).

In FIG. 6BL, Jane's device 6000B displays a group card interface 6038B, while John's device continues to display playback of "First Episode" in the media PiP 6150A. The group card interface 6038B includes status information 6040B (including a selectable leave option to leave the shared content session), a list of members of the climbers group 6042B, a selectable add contact option 6044B to add a contact to the climbers group, and a selectable copy option 6050B to copy a link that can be used to invite someone to join the climbers group. The list of members 6042B includes the names of the other group members along with their respective member status information. Jane's device 6000B scrolls the group card interface 6038B in response to the input 6324, as shown in FIG. 6BM.

In FIG. 6BM, the group card interface 6038 includes a content history 6052B and preferred content 6054B. The content history 6052B includes tiles that correspond to content shared in the climbers group during current or past shared content sessions. For example, tile 6330 corresponds to "First Episode" and includes a playback progress indicator 6330-1 that indicates the most recent playback progress of "First Episode." Tile 6330 also includes an indication 6056-1, which is John's avatar, indicating that John is the member who initiated playback of "First Episode." Jane's device 6000B detects an input 6326 on tile 6328 that corresponds to "Movie 3." In response to the input 6328, Jane's device displays an interface 6332 with controls 6338 and 6334 to begin playing "Movie 3" in the shared content session, which in some embodiments replaces the playback of what is currently playing ("First Episode") with the playback of "Movie 3" for the climber group.

In response to detecting input 6336 on control 6334, Jane's device 6000B begins playing "Movie 3" for the climbers group, as shown in FIG. 6BO. In FIG. 6BO, John's device 6000A replaces the display of "First Episode" in media PiP 6150A with a display of "Movie 3", begins outputting audio 6340A for "Movie 3" (e.g., using speaker 6007A), and displays a notification 6344 indicating that Jane has started "Movie 3" for the climbers group. Jane's device 6000B plays "Movie 3" which is displayed in media PiP 6150B located above group card interface 6038B. Jane's device 6000B also outputs audio 6340B for "Movie 3" (e.g., using speaker 6007B). In the group card interface 6038B, the "Movie 3" tile 6328 has switched positions with the "First Episode" tile 6330. In some embodiments, the tile 6328 includes a playback progress indicator for "Movie 3." In some embodiments, in response to starting playback of "Movie 3," Jane's device displays an interface similar to that shown on John's device in FIG. 6BO including a notification indicating that Jane has started "Movie 3" for the Climbers group. In response to detecting a drag input 6342 on the media PiP 6150B, Jane's device 6000B displays the media PiP in a docked state 6150B-1, as shown in FIG. 6BP.

In FIG. 6BQ, Jane's device 6000B is shown scrolled to the top of the group card interface 6038B, revealing that Ryan and John's statuses are now updated to indicate that they are watching "Movie 3". Jane's device detects an input 6346 on the docked media PiP 6150B-1 and an input 6348 on the completion affordance. In response to the inputs 6346 and 6348, Jane's device 6000B displays the interface shown in FIG. 6BR, with the media PiP 6150B displayed in an undocked (e.g., extended) state positioned above the message interface 6004B. Jane's device 6000B also displays a control region 6015B with an updated status region 6015B-1 indicating that the climbers group is watching "Movie 3". Similarly, the dynamic graphic 6010B is updated to indicate that the climbers group is watching "Movie 3".

In FIG. 6BR, playback of "Movie 3" continues for the climber group, as shown on John and Jane's devices 6000. John's device 6000A detects an input 6350, which is a request to end playback of "Movie 3". In response to the input 6350, John's device displays a prompt 6354, as shown in FIG. 6BS, prompting John to select an option 6356 to end playback for the entire group (the climber group), an option 6358 to end playback for just John's device, or an option 6360 to cancel the request to end playback. In some embodiments, John's device moves the display location of the media PiP 6150A when the prompt 6354 is displayed, as shown in FIG. 6BS. In response to an input 6366 on the cancel option 6360, John's device dismisses the prompt 6354 and displays an interface similar to that shown in FIG. 6BR.

In FIG. 6BS, a message was sent from one member of the climber group to another member of the climber group via the messaging app. Jane's device 6000B therefore updates the message display area 6004B-3 to include an additional message 6352, which shifts the display position of the message and dynamic graphic 6010B in the message display area 6004B-3.

FIG. 6BT shows John and Jane's devices 6000 in response to John's device detecting input 6362 on option 6356 ("End for Group"). Specifically, John's device 6000A ends playback of "Movie 3" for the entire climber group, stops displaying media PiP 6150A, and displays the TV app interface 6130 with a notification 6368 (e.g., a banner for the shared content session app) indicating that John has ended "Movie 3" for the climber group. Jane's device 6000B stops playback of "Movie 3", stops displaying media PiP 6150B, and displays a notification 6370 indicating that John has ended "Movie 3" for the climber group. In addition, Jane's device displays a dynamic graphic 6010B with an updated appearance indicating the current status of the shared content session as active with three people (and no longer sharing content).

FIG. 6BU shows John and Jane's devices 6000 in response to John's device detecting input 6364 on option 6358 ("End for Me"). Specifically, John's device 6000A stops playing "Movie 3", stops displaying media PiP 6150B, and displays TV app interface 6130, as shown in FIG. 6BU. Jane's device 6000B (and other members in the climber group) continues playing "Movie 3" and updates the dynamic graphic 6010B to indicate that two people are now watching "Movie 3". In some embodiments, Jane's device displays a notification that John has stopped watching "Movie 3".

6BV-6BW illustrate an embodiment in which John's device 6000A leaves the shared content session while the group of climbers is watching "First Episode." In FIG. 6BV, the group of climbers is watching "First Episode" in a shared content session with three active participants as shown on John and Jane's devices 6000. John's device 6000A detects input 6372 on leave option 6015A-9 and, in response, ends the shared content session on John's device while the remaining members of the group of climbers continue to watch "First Episode" in the shared content session. As shown in FIG. 6BW, John's device 6000A displays the home screen 6018 without the control area or sharing pill, indicating that a shared content session is not active for John's device. Jane's device continues to play "First Episode" and the control area status area 6015B-1 is updated to indicate that two people are now active in the shared content session. Jane's device 6000B also displays a notification 6374 indicating that John has left the shared content session. Incoming audio 6035B is received at Jane's device 6000B but is not output at John's device 6000A because John is no longer in the shared content session with Jane and the other members of the climber group.

6BX-6CA show an embodiment in which John initiates playback of media content in a shared content session, but no media plays on Jane's device until the appropriate app is installed. In FIG. 6BX, John and Jane's devices 6000 are in a shared content session when John's device 6000A detects an input 6376 to play "First Episode" for the Climbers group. In FIG. 6BX, Jane's device 6000B displays a home screen 6088, but Jane's device has not downloaded the TV app.

In response to the input 6376, John's device initiates "First Episode" for the climbers group, which begins playing on John's device 6000A, as indicated by media PiP 6150A and notification 6378. Because the TV app used to play "First Episode" is not installed on Jane's device, Jane's device does not initiate playback of "First Episode" and instead displays notification 6380 informing Jane that John has initiated playback of "First Episode" in the shared content session. Notification 6380 includes view options 6382 selectable via input 6384 into display control area 6015B, as shown in FIG. 6BZ.

When control area 6015B is displayed, Jane's device 6000B also displays prompt 6386, encouraging Jane to download the TV app needed to watch "First Episode". In response to input 6390 on view option 6388, Jane's device 6000B displays app store interface 6392, which is a specific location within the app store that displays options 6394 selectable via input 6396 to download the TV app, as shown in FIG. 6CA. The app store has multiple apps that can be acquired, and the user can navigate from the app store landing page to different pages within the app store to acquire various applications. However, as shown in FIG. 6CA, selecting view option 6388 specifically causes Jane's device 6000B to navigate directly to an interface for acquiring the specific app needed to watch "First Episode", and does not require the user to navigate the app store to find the needed app. After Jane's device retrieves the TV app in response to input 6396, Jane's device automatically launches the TV app and begins playing "First Episode" at the current play time being watched by other members of the climber group.

FIGS. 6CB-6CH show an embodiment in which John initiates playback of media content in a shared content session, but no media is played on Jane's device until the required subscription is purchased. In FIG. 6CB, John and Jane's devices 6000 are in a shared content session when John's device 6000A detects an input 6398 to play "First Episode" for the climbers group. In FIG. 6CB, Jane's device 6000B is displaying a home screen 6088.

In response to the input 6398, John's device starts the Climbers group's "First Episode," which begins playing on John's device 6000A, as shown by the media PiP 6150A and notification in FIG. 6CC. In this embodiment, a subscription is required to view "First Episode." Because Jane's device does not have the required subscription (e.g., the subscription has not been purchased), Jane's device does not start playing "First Episode" and instead displays a notification 6400 informing Jane that John has started playing "First Episode" in the shared content session. The notification 6400 includes view options 6402 selectable via input 6404 into the display control area 6015B, as shown in FIG. 6CD.

Upon displaying control area 6015B, Jane's device 6000B also displays prompt 6406, inviting Jane to purchase the subscription required to view "First Episode." In response to input 6410 on purchase option 6408, Jane's device 6000B displays subscription interface 6412, including selectable options 6414 via input 6416 to purchase a subscription, as shown in FIG. 6CE. In response to input 6416, Jane's device 6000B displays payment transaction interface 6420, which allows Jane to complete the purchase of the subscription required to view "First Episode." In response to detecting input 6422 (e.g., a double-click input) on button 6418B, Jane's device 6000B completes the transaction (including any verification or authentication steps) to purchase the subscription, as shown in FIG. 6CG. After detecting input 6426 on completion affordance 6424, Jane's device 6000B launches the TV app and begins playing "First Episode" at the current play time being watched by other members of the climber group.

6CI-6CN illustrate an embodiment in which music is shared in a shared content session with a group of climbers. FIG. 6CI shows John's device 6000A displaying a group card interface 6038A, and Jane's device 6000B displaying a home screen 6088. John selects the Music 1 tile 6430 via input 6432, and in response, John's device 6000A begins playing Music 1 for the climbers group, as shown in FIG. 6CJ. John and Jane's devices 6000 begin playing "Music 1" as indicated by output audio 6441A and 6441B (e.g., using speaker 6007). John's device 6000A displays a music interface 6434A in which Music 1 has been added to playlist 6442 and is playing, and displays a notification 6440 (e.g., a banner from the shared content session app) informing John that John has added "Music 1" to the music playlist for the climbers. Jane's device 6000B displays a notification 6436 (e.g., a banner from the shared content session app) informing Jane that John has added "Music 1" to the playlist. In some embodiments, the notification indicates that John has started playing "Music 1" for the Climbers group. The notifications 6440 and 6436 include a music glyph 6439 indicating that a music app is associated with sharing music (e.g., a music app is being used to play music for the shared content session or music has been added to a playlist or queue within the music app). In some embodiments, when music is selected for a shared content session, the music is added to a music queue. In some embodiments, when music is selected for a shared content session, the music begins playing without adding the music to a queue. In some embodiments, when music is selected for a shared content session, the music begins playing and replaces the playback of the content (e.g., music and/or media content) currently being output in the shared content session.

Jane taps notification 6436 via input 6438 to display music interface 6434B, as shown in FIG. 6CK. Jane's device 6000B shows that Music 1 appears in the playlist and that Music 1 is playing on Jane's device 6000B. Jane taps Music 6 option 6443 via input 6444, FIG. 6CL to begin playing Music 6 for the Climbers group.

6CL, as shown with respect to John and Jane's devices 6000, the climbers' group begins playing music 6. John's device 6000A begins outputting music audio 6448A (e.g., using speaker 6007A), updates music interface 6434A to indicate that music 6 is playing, and displays notification 6450 informing John that Jane has started playing music 6. Similarly, Jane's device 6000B begins outputting music audio 6448B (e.g., using speaker 6007B), updates music interface 6434B to indicate that music 6 is playing, and displays notification 6452 informing Jane that Jane has started playing music 6 for the climbers' group.

In FIG. 6CM, John and Jane's devices 6000 navigate to their respective home screens 6018 and 6088 in response to home gestures 6454 and 6456 (shown in FIG. 6CL) received at John's device 6000A and Jane's device 6000B, respectively. The devices 6000 continue to play music 6 as John taps browser app icon 6458 via input 6460 and Jane taps weather app icon 6464 via input 6462. Music continues to play while John's device 6000A displays browser interface 6466 and Jane's device 6000B displays weather interface 6468, as shown in FIG. 6CN.

FIGS. 6CO-6CU show an embodiment in which the Climbers Group is in a shared content session and has an active video call in progress. John starts playing the Climbers Group program and then moves the display of the program from his phone to the TV. In FIG. 6CO, John selects option 6220-1 via input 6470 to play the Climbers Group's "First Episode" and swipes (input 6472) to display home screen 6018, as shown in FIG. 6CP. Jane's device 6000B displays home screen 6088.

In FIG. 6CP, "First Episode" begins playing for the climbers group, as indicated by the display of media PiP 6150 and the output of music for "First Episode" on John and Jane's devices 6000. While displaying media PiP 6150B, Jane's device 6000B detects input 6476 to scroll pages on home screen 6088 and input 6474 to pause playback of "First Episode" for the climbers group. John's device 6000A detects input 6476 on videoconferencing app icon 6478 and, in response, displays videoconferencing interface 6170A with media PiP 6150A overlaid thereon, as shown in FIG. 6CQ. Because the video conferencing interface 6170A is displayed on John's device 6000A, the mini PiP 6295 is no longer displayed on the media PiP 6150A.

In FIG. 6CQ, "First Episode" is paused for the Climbers group. John selects the play affordance via input 6484 to resume playing the Climbers group program and selects forward option 6152A-3 via input 6482. Jane's device continues to display media PiP 6150B while transitioning to home screen page 2 6088-1 in response to input 6476 and detecting the selection of the mail app icon 6488 via input 6486.

In FIG. 6CR, in response to input 6484, "First Episode" is resumed for the group of climbers. Jane's device 6000B displays a mail interface 6496 in response to input 6486 and continues to display media PiP 6150B, indicating that "First Episode" has resumed playback. John's device 6000A displays a forwarding menu 6490 in response to input 6482. The forwarding menu 6490 indicates the devices on which the shared content can be played. John selects TV option 6492 via input 6494 to forward playback of "First Episode" to his TV 6500, as shown in FIG. 6CS.

In FIG. 6CS, TV 6500 is playing "First Episode" on display 6503 and is outputting audio 6156C for the program using speakers (e.g., similar to speakers 111 and/or 6007). In some embodiments, TV 6500 is in communication with John's device 6000A over data connection 6501. With "First Episode" now playing on TV 6500, John's device 6000A stops outputting audio for "First Episode" (e.g., on speakers 6007A), stops displaying media PiP 6150A, and displays a video feed having an initial default size and placement in videoconferencing interface 6170A. Jane's device 6000B (and the devices of the other participating members of the climbing group) continues to play "First Episode."

In FIG. 6CT, John's device 6000A displays control area 6015A in response to detecting input 6498 on shared pill 6020A of FIG. 6CS. Now that "First Episode" has been transferred to TV 6500, control area 6015A is modified to include controller option 6502. John selects controller option 6502 via input 6504. In response, John's device 6000A displays display controller interface 6506 of FIG. 6CU.

The controller interface 6506 includes a control pad 6508 and control options 6510 for controlling playback of content on the TV 6500. The control pad 6508 can be interacted with (e.g., via touch input) to provide input for controlling the display of content on the TV 6500. For example, the control pad 6508 can be used to navigate a cursor, select menu options, control playback of content, or provide other input for controlling content displayed on the TV 6500. For example, in FIG. 6CU, input 6512 is used to cause playback controls 6514 to be displayed on the TV 6500.

In some embodiments, device 6000 can switch between different shared content sessions that are active simultaneously. Figures 6CV-6CX show an embodiment in which John's device 6000A is participating in two active shared content sessions and switches from one active shared content session to the other.

In FIG. 6CV, John's device 6000A is participating in an active shared content session with a group of climbers. John selects video conferencing app icon 6478 via input 6516, and in response, John's device 6000A displays video conferencing interface 6520 of FIG. 6CW. Video conferencing interface 6520 shows a call log of current and past shared content and video conferencing sessions. Entries in the call log provide an indication of whether the corresponding call was a video call (e.g., a video call in which no content was shared) or a shared content session (e.g., a live communication session (e.g., audio and/or video call) in which content was shared), and include additional information such as the identity of the participants in the respective call, the time and/or date of the call, and, in the case of a shared content session, an indication of the content shared in the shared content session and/or an indication of activity that occurred in the shared content session, such as an indication that the group participated in a video call during the shared content session. For example, item 6522 is an indication of an ongoing shared content session with a group called "Fishermen." Item 6522 includes a Fishermen logo 6524, a Fishermen group name identifier 6526, a call type indication 6528 indicating that the call is a shared content session, and an activity indication 6530 indicating that members of the Fishermen group have participated (or are currently participating) in a video call during the shared content session. Similarly, item 6532 represents an ongoing active shared content session with a Mountaineers group. Item 6534 is an example of a call (specifically a video call) that occurred yesterday with a Tennis Club group.

John switches from an active shared content session with the Climbers group to an active shared content session with the Fishermen group via input 6536 on item 6522. In response to detecting input 6536, John's device switches from the shared content session with the Climbers group to the shared content session with the Fishermen group, as shown in FIG. 6CX, in which John's device 6000A is participating in an active shared content session with Finn's device 6000D. John's device 6000A displays a video conferencing interface 6538A, a control area 6015A, a sharing pill 6020A, a media PiP 6150A, a camera preview 6544, and video feeds 6540 and 6542 from participants in the shared content session. Similarly, Finn's device 6000D displays a video conferencing interface 6538D, a control area 6015D, a sharing pill 6020D, a media PiP 6150D, a camera preview 6550, and video feeds 6546 and 6548 from participants in the shared content session.

6CY-6DE show an example embodiment in which representations of participants are displayed over representations of content shared in a shared content session. In FIG. 6CY, John and Jane's devices 6000 are video conferencing in a shared content session, as indicated by video conferencing interfaces 6170A and 6170B. In FIG. 6CZ, Ryan begins playing a program for a group of climbers, as indicated by a display of Media PiP 6150. John releases interface 6170A to display home screen 6018 via input 6552, and Jane releases interface 6170B to display home screen 6088 via input 6554.

In FIG. 6DA, the devices display their respective home screens and modify the appearance of their respective media PiPs 6150 to display an indication of the remote participant who is currently the most active (or most recently active) in the shared content session. In FIG. 6DA, John's device 6000A displays an indication 6556 (similar to mini PiP 6295) representing Ryan, who is the most active (or most recently active) remote participant since he has started playing the content displayed on the media PiP 6150A. Similarly, Jane's device 6000B displays an indication 6558 (similar to mini PiP 6243) representing Ryan, who is the most active (or most recently active) remote participant since he has started playing the content displayed on the media PiP 6150B. In FIG. 6DA, the indications 6556 and 6558 are video call video feeds from Ryan's devices. In some embodiments, the indications 6556/6558 are avatars, names, pictures, or other identifying elements.

6DA, John selects the browser app icon 6560 via input 6562, and Jane speaks to the group of climbers and selects the weather app icon 6564 via input 6566. In response to the input 6562, John's device 6000A displays the browser interface 6570 while continuing to display the media PiP 6150A. Because Jane has spoken to the group of climbers, Jane is now the most active remote participant with respect to John's device 6000A. Thus, John's device 6000A replaces Ryan's indication 6556 with Jane's indication 6568 (similar to mini PiP 6295).

In response to the input 6566, Jane's device 6000B displays a weather interface 6572 while continuing to display the media PiP 6150B. Although Jane has spoken to the climber group, Jane's activity is not a participant-removing activity on Jane's device 6000B. Thus, Ryan remains the most active remote participant on Jane's device 6000B. Thus, Jane's device 6000B continues to display an indication 6558 of Ryan along with the media PiP 6150B.

In some embodiments, an indication of an active remote participant is displayed during a screen share. For example, Figures 6DC-6DE show an embodiment in which Jane is sharing the screen content 6576 of her device for a group of climbers. John's device 6000A displays screen share content 6574 (similar to screen share window 6070) including an indication 6568 of Jane being the most active (or most recently active) remote participant for John's device 6000A. Jane's device 6000B displays screen content 6576 (e.g., a browser) and a video PiP 6245 showing a video feed of Ryan, who continues to be the most active remote participant for Jane's device.

In FIG. 6DC, John selects screen share content 6574 via input 6584. In response, John's device 6000A displays an expanded (e.g., full screen or using all of the screen outside of a portion of the screen designated for system status information and/or system control) view of the screen share content 6574, as shown in FIG. 6DD. Once the screen share content 6574 is expanded, Jane's video feed is displayed in video PiP 6235. Video PiP 6235 can be moved as described above. For example, in response to input 6586 (e.g., a drag gesture), video PiP 6235 is moved from the lower right corner to the upper right corner of display 6001A, as shown in FIG. 6DE. In FIG. 6DE, Ryan becomes the more active participant (e.g., by moving within his displayed video feed). Thus, John's device 6000A replaces Jane's video feed with Ryan's video feed in video PiP 6235.

In some embodiments, a user's view of the shared content can be resized, adjusted, zoomed in, zoomed out, or otherwise manipulated. For example, in FIG. 6DD, John's device 6000A detects input 6588 (e.g., an unpinch gesture) and in response expands or zooms its view of the screen shared content 6574, as shown in FIG. 6DE. In some embodiments, the zoomed-in view of the screen shared content 6574 can be panned (e.g., in response to a one- or two-finger drag gesture), zoomed in further (e.g., in response to an unpinch gesture), zoomed out (e.g., in response to a pinch gesture), or otherwise manipulated.

As discussed above, in some embodiments, the share option 6015-8 is selectable to display and optionally change media playback settings associated with individual applications. An example of such an embodiment is shown in FIGS. 6DF and 6DG. In FIG. 6DF, John's device 6000A is in a shared content session with a group of climbers and displays the control area 6015A while displaying the launch interface 6140 of the TV app. John selects the share option 6015A-8 via input 6578. In response to the input 6578, John's device 6000A displays a drop-down menu having media playback options for the TV app. Specifically, the drop-down menu includes an "always play" option 6580-1, an "ask next time" option 6580-2, and a "don't play" option 6580-3. These options correspond to media playback settings for controlling whether John's device automatically plays media from the TV app with the participants of the shared content session whenever John initiates playback of media from the TV app. For example, "Always Play" option 6580-1 is currently selected, as indicated by checkmark 6582. Thus, when John selects media to play in the TV app, John's device 6000A automatically instructs the participants in the shared content session to begin playing their respective media on their respective devices without displaying prompt 6220 (as shown in FIG. 6AO). If "Ask Next Time" option 6580-2 is selected, John's device 6000A displays prompt 6220 when John selects media to play in the TV app. If "Don't Play" option 6580-3 is selected, John's device plays the media content privately, optionally without displaying prompt 6220, when John selects media to play in the TV app.

6DH-6DO show various embodiments of participants in a shared content session manipulating the displayed content and enabling and/or disabling their respective video feeds. In FIG. 6DH, a group of climbers are watching "First Episode" in a shared content session while the participants' video feeds are enabled. John's device 6000A shows a docked media PiP 6150A in an expanded display state along with Jane's video feed in video PiP 6235. John's device 6000A detects an input 6590 and in response displays a home screen 6018 with a media PiP 6150A with Jane's video feed displayed in mini PiP 6295 as shown in FIG. 6DI. Jane's device 6000B displays a media PiP 6150B with a small display size along with a mini PiP 6243. Jane's device detects the input 6592 and in response moves the media PiP 6150B to the bottom of the display, as shown in FIG. 6DI.

In FIG. 6DI, John's device 6000A detects an input 6594 on the mini PiP 6295 and in response displays a videoconferencing interface 6170A as shown in FIG. 6DJ. Jane's device 6000B detects a resize input 6596 (e.g., a pinch release gesture) and in response increases the display size of the media PiP 6150B as shown in FIG. 6DJ. In some embodiments, as the size of the media PiP 6150 changes, the display size of the mini PiP overlaying the media PiP also changes (e.g., by an amount proportional to the direction and/or magnitude of the resize input). For example, in FIG. 6DJ, the size of the mini PiP 6243 is increased along with the media PiP 6150B. In some embodiments, as the size of the media PiP 6150 changes, the display size of the mini PiP overlaying the media PiP does not change. For example, in FIG. 6DK, the size of mini PiP 6243 is not increased with media PiP 6150B.

In FIG. 6DK, Jane's device 6000B detects input 6598 on media PiP 6150B and in response displays playback controls including extended affordance 6600, as shown in FIG. 6DL. Jane selects extended affordance 6600 via input 6602 and in response displays docked media PiP 6150B, as shown in FIG. 6DM, along with video PiP 6245 showing John's video feed. In FIG. 6DM, Ryan has disabled his video feed, as indicated by the display of Ryan's initials 6610 in tile 6174. John's device 6000A detects input 6604 and input 6606 on video option 6015A-7 and in response disables John's video feed (in response to input 6604) and displays home screen 6018 (in response to input 6606), as shown in FIG. 6DN. Jane's device 6000B detects the input 6612 on the notification 6614 and, in response, displays the control area 6015B, as shown in FIG. 6DN.

In FIG. 6DN, the video PiP 6245 shows John's initials 6616 because his video feed is now disabled. Jane's video feed is still enabled so the mini PiP 6295 continues to show Jane's video feed on John's device 6000A. Jane disables her video feed by selecting video option 6015B-7 via input 6618.

In some embodiments, when all participants have disabled their respective video feeds, the device 6000 stops displaying their respective video PiPs or miniPiPs and displays a notification when the last video feed has been disabled. For example, in FIG. 6DO, Jane is the last participant in the shared content session to disable their video feed. John's device 6000A stops displaying the miniPiP 6295 and displays a notification 6620 indicating that Jane has disabled her video feed. Similarly, Jane's device 6000B stops displaying the video PiP 6245 and displays a notification 6622 indicating that Jane has disabled the video feed of the climber group. In some embodiments, a notification is displayed when one of the participants enables (or re-enables) a video feed after all video feeds have been disabled.

6DP-6DV illustrate various embodiments of participants viewing content in a shared content session. In FIGS. 6DP and 6DQ, John and Jane are watching the First Episode in a shared content session with the Climbers group. John stops playback of the Climbers group's First Episode via inputs 6624 and 6626. Referring to FIG. 6DR, once playback is ended, John's device 6000A displays a notification 6630 indicating that John has finished the Climbers group's First Episode, stops displaying media PiP 6150A, and continues to display video PiP 6235 along with Jane's video feed. Jane's device 6000B displays a notification 6632 indicating that John has finished the group's First Episode, stops displaying the media PiP 6150B with the mini PiP 6243, and displays the video PiP 6245 showing John's video feed. John selects the notification 6630 via input 6628, and Jane drags the video PiP 6245 across the screen via input 6634.

In FIG. 6DS, John's device 6000A displays control area 6015A in response to input 6628, and Jane's device 6000B displays video PiP 6245 with its on-screen location changed in response to input 6634. John selects video option 6015A-7 via input 6636 to disable the video feed from John's device 6000A.

In FIG. 6DT, both John and Ryan have disabled their respective video feeds. Jane's device stops displaying John's video feed and instead displays John's initials 6616 in video PiP 6245. Ryan speaks to the group, as indicated by output audio 6037A and 6037B. John re-enables his video feed by selecting video option 6015A-7 via input 6638. In FIG. 6DU, Ryan continues to speak to the group, making him the most active (and most recently active) participant in the session. Thus, John's device 6000A displays Ryan's initials 6610 in video PiP 6235. In some embodiments, when a user enables his own video feed, the video feed is displayed on other devices even if that user is not the most active user in the session. For example, in FIG. 6DU, Ryan is the most active (and most recently active) participant in the session, but Jane's device 6000B displays John's video feed in video PiP 6245 because John has enabled his video feed. In some embodiments, the newly enabled video feed is displayed briefly before redisplaying the most active participant's video feed (or other representation (e.g., initials)). In some embodiments, the video feed is given a higher display priority than an alternative representation of the user (e.g., the user's initials). In such an embodiment, the device continues to display the video feeds of the less active participants, while the most active participant's video feed is disabled. In FIG. 6DV, Ryan, the most active participant, has enabled his video feed, and the device 6000 displays Ryan's video feed in each of the video PiPs 6235 and 6245.

6DW-6EE show various embodiments for displaying a videoconferencing interface during a shared content session. In FIG. 6DW, John's device 6000A uses a dimmed color scheme and displays a media PiP 6150A displayed via a videoconferencing interface 6170A along with tiles 6642-1 through 6642-6 representing video feeds of participants in the shared content session who are also participating in the videoconferencing, and a camera preview 6645A representing a video feed from John's device 6000A. Some tiles are displayed in a primary area 6170A-1 of the videoconferencing interface 6170A, and other tiles are displayed in a roster area 6170A-2 of the videoconferencing interface 6170A. In some embodiments, the camera preview 6645A is displayed positioned over the tiles in the roster area 6170A-2. Jane's device 6000B uses a dark color scheme and displays media PiP 6150B displayed through videoconferencing interface 6170B, with tiles 6644-1 through 6642-6 representing video feeds of participants in the shared content session, and camera preview 6645B representing the video feed from Jane's device 6000B. Some tiles are displayed in a primary area 6170B-1 of videoconferencing interface 6170B, and other tiles are displayed in a roster area 6170B-2 of videoconferencing interface 6170B. In some embodiments, camera preview 6645B is displayed positioned over the tiles in roster area 6170B-2.

In some embodiments, tiles are generally displayed in the primary area 6170-1, but may be displayed in the roster area 6170-2 based on various criteria, such as when there is not enough space for each tile to be displayed in the primary area 6170-1. In some embodiments, tiles are associated with a priority level for display, with tiles having a higher priority being displayed in the primary area and the remaining tiles (or a subset of the remaining tiles) being displayed in the roster area. In some embodiments, tiles having a higher priority are tiles that display video feeds of more active (or more recently active) participants, tiles associated with participants who are sharing content or have recently shared content, participants who joined the video conference earlier in a call session, or tiles that have been selected (e.g., pinned) for display in the primary area. In some embodiments, tiles having a higher priority may be displayed in the roster area if there is not enough space to display the tiles in the primary area. In some embodiments, tiles are moved from the primary area to the roster area (or vice versa) as the priorities of those participants change or as other conditions dictate. In some embodiments, not all tiles may be visible in the roster area. In such a case, the roster may be scrolled (e.g., via a swipe gesture on the roster area) to display the additional tiles assigned to the roster area. In some embodiments, the video feeds in the roster may be updated less frequently or at a slower rate than the video feeds not in the roster (e.g., the video feeds in the primary area 6170-1).

John's device 6000A illustrates an embodiment in which the grid view setting is disabled, and Jane's device 6000B illustrates an embodiment in which the grid view setting is enabled. When the grid view setting is disabled, the device 6000 displays the video tiles in an overlapping or non-grid arrangement, as shown by tiles 6642-1 and 6642-2 on John's device 6000A. When the grid view setting is enabled, the device 6000 displays the video tiles in a grid arrangement, as shown by tiles 6644-1 through 6644-4 on Jane's device 6000B.

In FIG. 6DW, John and Jane's devices 6000 are displaying the First Episode in a shared content session with the climbers group. The video feeds of the climbers group members are represented in respective tiles 6642-1 through 6642-6 and 6644-1 through 6644-6. The First Episode is now paused, and Jane resumes playback of the First Episode via input 6648. The First Episode has resumed playback as shown in FIG. 6DX.

Once playback resumes, John's device 6000A displays a notification 6650 indicating that Jane has resumed the First Episode of the Climbers group. In some embodiments, notifications associated with the shared content session (e.g., notifications generated by an application enabling the shared content session) are displayed with the respective color scheme regardless of which color scheme is being used by the respective device. Thus, notification 6650 is displayed with the shaded color associated with the shared content session even though John's device is using a light color scheme. Similarly, Jane's device 6000B displays a notification 6652 indicating that Jane has resumed the First Episode of the Climbers group. Notification 6652 is displayed with the shaded color associated with the shared content session.

In FIG. 6DX, John's device detects input 6654 and Jane's device detects input 6656. In response, the devices minimize and dock their respective media pips 6150A and 6150B, as shown in FIG. 6DY. As the media pips are minimized and docked, each device adjusts the display size and/or placement of the tiles in the videoconferencing interface 6170 based on the additional space available in the primary area of the videoconferencing interface. Specifically, John's device 6000A resizes and shifts the location of tiles 6642-1 and 6642-2 in primary area 6170A-1 and moves (and resizes) tile 6642-3 from roster area 6170A-2 to primary area 6170A-1. Jane's device 6000B shifts tile 6644-1 to 6644-4 in primary area 6170B-1 and moves tiles 6644-5 and 6644-6 from roster area 6170B-2 to primary area 6170B-1. In some embodiments, when shared content is not displayed, the device adjusts the displayed camera preview. For example, in FIG. 6DY, when media PIPs 6150A and 6150B are minimized and docked, John's device 6000A changes camera preview 6645A from a square shape to an elongated shape, and Jane's device 6000B changes camera preview 6645B from a square shape to an elongated shape.

In FIG. 6DY, John's device 6000A displays notification 6658 and Jane's device 6000B displays notification 6660. Notifications 6658 and 6660 are not associated with the shared content session and therefore are displayed with colors corresponding to the color schemes of the respective devices. Thus, notification 6658 is displayed in a light color and notification 6660 is displayed in a dark color.

In response to the inputs 6662 and 6664, the device 6000 unfolds the media PiP 6150 and rearranges the tiles displayed in the videoconferencing interfaces 6170A and 6170B in response to the unfolded state of the media PiP, as shown in FIG. 6DZ. John's device 6000A detects the input 6666 (e.g., a pinch gesture) and in response resizes (e.g., shrinks) the media PiP 6150A, as shown in FIG. 6EA. In FIG. 6DZ, Jane's device 6000B detects the input 6668 (e.g., a drag gesture) and in response moves the media PiP 6150B to the position shown in FIG. 6EA. As the media PiP 6150 is moved on the screen, the device 6000 rearranges the displayed tiles to accommodate the changed position of the media PiP 6150. Thus, in FIG. 6EA, Jane's device 6000B has shifted tiles 6644-1 through 6644-4 to the top of primary area 6170B-1 and is displaying media PiP 6150B below tiles 6644-2 and 6644-4 and above roster area 6170B-2.

In some embodiments, the device 6000 moves the camera preview 6645 and/or tiles in the roster area 6170-2 to accommodate the placement of the media PiP 6150. In some embodiments, the device 6000 does not move the camera preview 6645 and/or tiles in the roster area 6170-2 to accommodate the placement of the media PiP 6150. For example, in Figures 6EA and 6EB, John's device 6000A detects an input 6670 (e.g., a drag gesture) that moves the media PiP 6150A from the top of the videoconferencing interface 6170 of Figure 6EA to a position above the roster area 6170A-2 and camera preview 6645A shown in Figure 6EB. John's device 6000A moves tiles 6642-1 and 6642-2 in the primary area 6170A-1 to accommodate the movement of the media PiP 6150A, but does not move tiles in the camera preview 6645A or roster area 6170A-2. In response to the end of the input 6670 (e.g., finger lift), the device 6000A repositions the media PiP 6150 to a location above the roster area 6170A-2 and camera preview 6645A, as shown in FIG. 6EC.

6EB, Jane's device 6000B displays a videoconferencing interface 6170B having a control area 6015B. When the control area 6015B is displayed, the tiles in the primary area 6170B-1, the tiles in the roster area 6170B-2, the camera preview 6645B, and/or the media PiP 6150B are resized to accommodate the display of the control area 6015B. Jane selects the control area status area 6015B-1 via input 6672. In response, Jane's device 6000B displays a group card interface 6038B, as shown in FIG. 6EC. In some embodiments, the group card interface 6038 includes an option to enable or disable a grid view configuration. For example, in FIG. 6EC, Jane's device 6000B displays a group card interface 6038B having a grid view option 6676 shown in an enabled state. In some embodiments, the grid view option 6676 is located in a different location within the group card interface 6038. For example, the grid view option 6676 is displayed below the list of participants (optionally included in the area with the copy invite link) and in some embodiments, is displayed after scrolling the group card interface 6038 (e.g., if there are many participants). In FIG. 6EC, Jane selects the grid view option 6676 via input 6674 to disable the grid view configuration and returns to the video conference interface 6170B via input 6678. In FIG. 6ED, Jane's device 6000B displays the video conference interface 6170B with the grid view configuration disabled. Thus, tiles 6644-1 and 6644-2 are displayed in a non-grid arrangement in the primary area 6170B-1, and tiles 6644-3 and 6644-4 are moved to the roster area 6170B-2 along with tiles 6644-5 and 6644-6.

In FIG. 6EE, a video conference participant has left the video conference session, leaving Jane and John as the only participants in the video conference. Because the video conference session is thinly populated (e.g., there are no other participants), John's device 6000A expands a tile with Jane's video feed, tile 6642-1, into an extended view, and Jane's device 6000B expands a tile with John's video feed, tile 6644-1, into an extended view. In some embodiments, tiles 6642-1 and/or 6644-1 are expanded into a full screen view or use all of the screen outside of a portion of the screen designated for system status information and/or system control (e.g., when Media PiP 6150 is not displayed in the user interface), and optionally a corresponding camera preview is displayed in an elongated shape (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6EJ). In some embodiments, if the media PiP is displayed near the top edge of the camera preview and the camera preview is enlarged (e.g., elongated), the device shifts the position of the media PiP (e.g., upward) to accommodate the enlarged camera preview. In some embodiments, the device 6000 displays additional controls when a tile is selected or otherwise highlighted. For example, in FIG. 6EE, John's device 6000A displays a capture affordance 6680A that can be selected to capture an image of Jane from Jane's video feed in tile 6642-1. Similarly, Jane's device 6000B displays a capture affordance 6680B that can be selected to capture an image of John from John's video feed in tile 6644-1. In some embodiments, the capture affordance 6680 is displayed when the tile is in full-screen view and is not displayed when the tile is not in full-screen view.

6EF and 6EG illustrate an embodiment in which Jane selects shareable content for playback in the shared content session while the group of climbers is already playing content in the shared content session. In FIG. 6EF, Jane selects option 6684 to play movie 3 in the shared content session via input 6682. In response, Jane's device 6000B displays prompt 6686 (similar to prompt 6220) with option 6686-1 for Jane to start movie 3 for the group, option 6686-2 for starting movie 3 only on Jane's device, and option 6686-3 for canceling the request to play movie 3.

6EH-6EJ illustrate embodiments in which Jane stops playing content shared in a shared content session. In FIGS. 6EH and 6EI, Jane ends playback of the Climbers Group's First Episode via inputs 6688 and 6690. In response to ending playback of the First Episode, John's device 6000A stops displaying media PiP 6150A, expands Jane's tile 6642-1 into an expanded (e.g., full screen) view (e.g., snaps to a full screen view without the media PiP), and expands camera preview 6645A into an elongated shape as shown in FIG. 6EJ. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A expands the tile with Jane's video feed (and, optionally, camera preview) when media PiP 6150A is no longer displayed. In some embodiments (e.g., after video tile 6642-1 is displayed simultaneously with media PiP 6150A), John's device 6000A does not expand the tile with Jane's video feed (e.g., tile 6642-1) to avoid frequent shifts in the layout of the video tiles in the user interface.

6EK and 6EL show an embodiment in which Jane closes the videoconferencing application while content is being shared in a shared content session with the climber group. In FIG. 6EK, the device 6000 displays the videoconferencing interface 6170 while displaying the shared content in the media PIP 6150. Jane closes the videoconferencing application via input 6692 while the shared content continues to play. In response, Jane leaves the videoconferencing session but continues to play the shared content with the group (or, in some embodiments, the content continues to play on Jane's device, but the content is no longer kept in sync with the playback of the content in the climber group). In some embodiments, when Jane leaves the videoconferencing session, Jane's device stops playing the shared content (e.g., stops displaying the media PiP 6150B) and, optionally, leaves the shared content session. Because Jane has left the video conference session, John's device 6000A no longer displays Jane's tile (e.g., tile 6642-1) of FIG. 6EL and expands Ryan's tile, tile 6642-2, and camera preview 6645A while continuing to display the shared content in media PiP 6150A. Jane's device 6000B displays the home screen 6088 and continues to play the shared content in media PiP 6150B, including mini PiP 6243 with Ryan's video feed. In some embodiments, the video PiP or mini PiP (e.g., mini PiP 6243) is displayed along with the media PiP 6150 while the shared content session is active, even if the content being played in the media PiP 6150 is different from the content being played in the shared content session.

6EM-6EO illustrate an embodiment in which Jane accesses content shared with the group of climbers in a shared content session from an interface that is not part of the shared content session interface. In FIGS. 6EM and 6EN, Jane is in a shared content session with the group of climbers. The group is watching the First Episode, but Jane is not currently watching the First Episode with the group. Instead, Jane's device 6000B displays a media application interface 6695, which is not part of the shared content interface and is an interface of an application (e.g., similar to interface 6130) that may be used to play media content. While the group of climbers is watching the First Episode, Jane selects the First Episode from the media application via inputs 6694 and 6696 to watch with the group of climbers. In FIG. 6EO, Jane's device 6000B begins playing the First Episode with the group of climbers. However, instead of starting the First Episode from the beginning of the program or from where Jane previously stopped watching the program, Jane's device starts the First Episode at the same position (e.g., time or moment) of the program being watched by the group of climbers so that she plays the content at the same time as the group of climbers. John's device 6000A displays Jane's video feed in the mini-PiP 6295 because Jane is the most recently active participant in the shared content session, and displays a notification 6698 indicating that Jane has started watching the First Episode with the group of climbers. Jane's device 6000B displays a notification 6700 indicating that Jane has started watching the First Episode with the group of climbers. In some embodiments, if the First Episode has not been played by the group of climbers in the shared content session (or Jane is not in the shared content session), input 6696 (optionally with an additional input to start playing the program) starts playing the First Episode from the beginning of the program or at the location in the program where Jane previously stopped watching. In some embodiments, if Jane starts playing sharable content that is different from the content being watched in the shared content session with the group of climbers, Jane's device displays a prompt (e.g., prompt 6686 as shown in FIG. 6EG) asking whether Jane wants to play the content for the group or for herself. In some embodiments, if Jane starts playing content that cannot be shared in a shared content session, Jane's device 6000B plays the content without adding the content to the shared content session and without prompting Jane to share the content with the group of climbers.

6EP and 6EQ show John's device displaying various settings interfaces for adjusting settings associated with a shared content session. In FIG. 6EP, John's device 6000A displays a settings interface 6702 of a settings application. The settings interface 6702 includes options 6704 associated with various settings for the shared content session. The device 6000 detects an input 6706 selecting option 6704 and, in response, displays a shared content session settings interface 6708, as shown in FIG. 6EQ. The shared content session settings interface 6708 includes a selectable toggle 6710 to enable/disable global shared content session settings. When the toggle 6710 is disabled, John's device 6000A does not add content to the shared content session (e.g., when selecting content for playback). In some embodiments, when the toggle 6710 is disabled, John's device 6000A does not display various notifications associated with sharing content in a shared content session. For example, notification 6210 is not displayed when media interface 6130 is displayed or when text on various playback affordances, such as play option 6144, does not indicate that the content can be or will be played in a shared content session. In some embodiments, device 6000 continues to display other indications that content can be shared, such as glyph 6132.

The shared content session settings interface 6708 also includes application options 6712, which include toggles 6714-1 through 6714-7 that are selectable to control whether content associated with individual applications is automatically added to the shared content session. In some embodiments, each application includes an application capable of streaming content (e.g., media content, music, videos, and/or video games). When each of the toggles 6714-1 through 6714-7 is enabled, shareable content accessed from the corresponding application is automatically added to the shared content session. When each of the toggles 6714-1 through 6714-7 is disabled, shareable content accessed from the corresponding application is not automatically added to the shared content session, and instead the user is given the option to add the content to the shared content session or to play the content without adding the content to the shared content session (e.g., similar to prompt 6220 of FIG. 6AO, 6BX, 6CB, or 6CO, or prompt 6686 of FIG. 6EG). In FIG. 6EQ, toggle 6714-1 is on for a streaming video 1 application 6715-1, so that if a user plays sharable content in the streaming video 1 application during a shared content session, the content will be automatically added to the shared content session. Toggle 6714-2 is off for a streaming video 2 application 6715-2, so that if a user plays sharable content in the streaming video 2 application during a shared content session, the content will not be automatically added to the shared content session (and the user is optionally given the option to add content to the shared content session). Toggle 6714-3 is on for a streaming video game 1 application 6715-3, so that if a user plays sharable content in the streaming video game 1 application during a shared content session, the content will be automatically added to the shared content session. Toggle 6714-4 is on for a streaming music 1 application 6715-4, so that if a user plays sharable content in the streaming music 1 application during a shared content session, the content will be automatically added to the shared content session. Toggle 6714-5 is on for the Streaming Music 2 application 6715-5, so that if the user plays sharable content in the Streaming Music 2 application during a shared content session, the content is automatically added to the shared content session. Toggle 6714-6 is off for the Streaming Music 3 application 6715-6, so that if the user plays sharable content in the Streaming Music 3 application during a shared content session, the content is not automatically added to the shared content session (the user is optionally given the option to add the content to the shared content session). Toggle 6714-7 is off for the Streaming Movies application 6715-7, so that if the user plays sharable content in the Streaming Movies application during a shared content session, the content is not automatically added to the shared content session (the user is optionally given the option to add the content to the shared content session). In some embodiments, when toggle 6710 is disabled, application toggle 6714 is also disabled, unselectable, hidden, or otherwise obscured, and the user is not prompted to add content to the shared content session (e.g., for all applications or for multiple different applications that may share content within the shared content session), cannot see (e.g., watch) content in the shared content session, and/or cannot participate in the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the settings for a shared content session are maintained for the corresponding application when the shared content is migrated to a different device (e.g., TV 6500). For example, as shown in FIG. 6EQ, if the TV application toggle 6714-3 is on, when sharable content is played on the TV 6500 during a shared content session, the content is automatically added to the shared content session. However, if the TV application toggle 6714-3 is off, when sharable content is played on the TV 6500 during a shared content session, the user is prompted to add the content to the shared content session.

FIG. 7 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for outputting content and/or notifications associated with a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000A), according to some embodiments. Method 700 is performed in a computer system (e.g., a smartphone, a tablet, and/or a desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A and/or 6007A) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, and/or 6003A) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 700 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 700 provides an intuitive way to output content and/or notifications associated with a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to output associated content and/or notifications in a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to output associated content and/or notifications in a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

A computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) detects (702) a first set of one or more inputs (e.g., 6064, 6190, 6218, or 6224) corresponding to a request to output content (e.g., a request to view an image, text, video content, audio (e.g., music) content, etc.) (e.g., selection of a "play" affordance, selection of an image, input on an application icon (e.g., launching or opening an application), and/or selection of a URL) via one or more input devices (e.g., 60001A and/or 60001B).

In response to detecting (704) a first set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to output content, in accordance with determining (706) that an active shared content session exists between the computer system (e.g., 6000A) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., one or more external computer systems) (e.g., a computer system associated with (e.g., operated by) a remote user (e.g., a user of the computer system and a user in the shared content session)), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) may, when the shared content session is active, determine whether the computer system is transmitting the individual content (e.g., synchronized content (e.g., audio and/or video data whose output is synchronized at the computer system and the external computer system)) and/or screen sharing content ( For example, image data generated by a device (e.g., a computer system, an external computer system) that provides a real-time representation of image or video content currently being displayed on the device, and the computer system (e.g., 6000A), via an output generating component of one or more output generating components, outputs a first notification (e.g., 6066, 6210, 6220, 6228) (e.g., a graphical notification (e.g., a banner) and/or an audible notification (e.g., an alert) (optionally including a haptic output and/or an audio output)) that the content is being output by the external computer system when the content is being output by the computer system (e.g., the content is being output at the external computer system while the content is being output at the computer system) (708). The computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs (710) the content (e.g., 6150A) via one or more output generating components (e.g., displaying video/image data of the content on a display component of the computer system and/or outputting (e.g., playing) audio data of the content on a speaker component (e.g., 111, 6007) of the computer system). Outputting a first notification including an indication that the content will be output by the external computer system when the content is output by the computer system provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the selected content will be output by the external computer system when the content is output by the computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, during a shared content session, the individual content is output simultaneously at both the computer system and the external computer system. In some embodiments, the individual content is screen shared content (e.g., content displayed on a display of the computer system) from the computer system that is transmitted to the external computer system such that both computer systems are simultaneously outputting the screen shared content from the computer system. In some embodiments, the individual content is screen shared content (e.g., content displayed on a display of the external computer system) from the external computer system that is transmitted to the computer system such that both computer systems are simultaneously outputting the screen shared content from the external computer system. In some embodiments, the individual content is synchronized content that is output at the computer system and the external computer system. In some embodiments, the computer system and the external computer system each separately access individual content (e.g., videos, movies, TV shows, songs) from a remote server and synchronize the respective output of the individual content such that the content is output at both computer systems (e.g., via an application local to each computer system), while each computer system separately accesses the individual content from the remote server. In some embodiments, the computer system and the external computer system separately access the separate content (e.g., synchronized content) in response to a selection received at the computer system or the external computer system to request output of the separate content.

In some embodiments, in response to detecting a first set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to output content, in accordance with a determination that there is an active shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 6000A) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) provides (e.g., transmits) content information to the external computer system that enables the external computer system to output the content (e.g., FIG. 6AQ). In some embodiments, the computer system provides the content information to the external computer system by transmitting the content information directly or indirectly (e.g., via a server) to the external computer system. In some embodiments, the content information includes metadata, audio data, video data, image data, links (e.g., web links, URLs) to locations where the content may be accessed (e.g., remote servers), and/or information representing portions or positions within the content (e.g., timestamps) (e.g., for synchronization).

In some embodiments, in response to detecting a first set of one or more inputs (e.g., 6148) corresponding to a request to output the content, in accordance with a determination that there is no active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system (e.g., 6000B), the computer system outputs the content via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A) without outputting a first notification (e.g., FIGS. 6AA and 6AB). Outputting the content without outputting a first notification provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the selected content will not be output by the external computer system when the content is output by the computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while outputting the content via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A), in accordance with a determination that there is an active shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 6000A) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B), the computer system synchronizes the output (e.g., playing) of the content via the output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A) with the output of the content at the external computer system (e.g., FIGS. 6AU-6AX and 6BC-6BE). In some embodiments, the output of the content is synchronized by the computer system and/or the external computer system providing, receiving, and/or exchanging information regarding the output status (e.g., playing, paused, position or time of the portion of the content being output, playback speed) of the content at the computer system and/or the external computer system. In some embodiments, while there is an active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system, outputting the content via the output generating component of one or more output generating components includes synchronizing the output of the content via the output generating component of one or more output generating components with the output of the content at the external computer system.

In some embodiments, outputting the content via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A) includes outputting (e.g., displaying) a user interface (e.g., 6150A) of the application of the computer system (e.g., 6001A) that outputs the content, and the method further includes, while there is an active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system (e.g., 6000B), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs the content via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components (e.g., 6000A) that outputs the content without providing information to the external computer system that enables the external computer system to output a user interface (e.g., FIG. 6AQ) of the application of the computer system that outputs the content (e.g., without sharing or adding to the shared content session a screen (e.g., a screen displayed by the computer system that includes the user interface of the application that outputs the content) or a portion thereof (e.g., an application window displayed by the computer system, only the user interface of the application that outputs the content). Outputting the content without providing information to the external computer system that enables the external computer system to output a user interface of the application of the computer system that outputs the content conserves computational resources of the computer system. Conserving computing resources improves the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, prior to detecting a first set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to output content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) may, pursuant to a determination that there is an active shared content session between the computer system and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B), cause the computer system (e.g., 6000A) to display the selectable playback elements in a first appearance (e.g., 6144 of FIG. 6AN) (e.g., buttons including text such as "Watch Together," "Watch With Others," and/or "Add to Shared Content Session" instead of "Play," "Go Forward," "Start," and/or a corresponding graphic (e.g., a right-pointing arrow or triangle)) and to control the output generation of one or more output generation components (e.g., 6001A). Through the components, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a user interface of a media player application including a selectable playback element (e.g., 6144) (e.g., an affordance, button) that initiates output of content when selected, and pursuant to a determination that there is no active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays the selectable playback element in a second appearance (e.g., 6144 in FIG. 6AA) that is different from the first appearance (e.g., the button includes text such as "Play," "Go," "Start," and/or a corresponding graphic without text such as "Watch Together," "Watch With Others," and/or "Add to Shared Content Session" (e.g., a right-pointing arrow or triangle)). Displaying the selectable playback element in the first or second appearance pursuant to a determination of whether there is an active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system provides feedback to a user of the computer system as to whether content is output at the computer system or at both the computer system and the external computer system. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the appearance of controls in a media player application is changed to indicate that the played media is being shared in a shared content session.

In some embodiments, prior to detecting a first set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to output the content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A), via the output generating components of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A), displays a user interface (e.g., 6130) of a media player application including a representation (e.g., 6138) of the content (e.g., images and/or text representing movies, episodes, songs, and/or podcasts that may be played, a description of the content, ratings and/or review information for the content, a 4K icon (e.g., badge) visually associated (e.g., displayed or adjacent) with the content, a DOLBY Vision icon (e.g., badge) visually associated with the content), and when the content is output by the computer system (e.g., as part of an active shared content session between the computer system and an external computer system, the content may be added to the shared content session), the content may be displayed as a user interface (e.g., 6130) of the media player application including a representation (e.g., 6138) of the content (e.g., images and/or text representing movies, episodes, songs, and/or podcasts that may be played, a description of the content, ratings and/or review information for the content, a 4K icon (e.g., badge) visually associated with the content), a DOLBY Vision icon (e.g., badge) visually associated with the content), and In response to a determination that the content may be output (e.g., may be output, configured to be output) by the external computer system (e.g., 6000B) (and in response to there being an active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays the identifier (e.g., 6132) (e.g., an icon, text, and/or badge) concurrently with the representation of the content, and when the content is output by the computer system (e.g., as part of an active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system, individual content may not be added to the shared content session), in response to a determination that the content may not be output (e.g., may not be output, not configured to be output) by the external computer system (e.g., FIG. 6Z and/or FIG. 6AA), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays the representation of the content without outputting the identifier. Displaying the representation of the content with or without displaying the identifier provides feedback to a user of the computer system as to whether the content is output at the computer system or at both the computer system and the external computer system. Improves usability of the computer system by providing improved feedback, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, a user interface of a media player application (e.g., a user interface for accessing media for playback) includes multiple representations of content that are displayed simultaneously. In some embodiments, the multiple representations of content include one or more representations of content that can be added to a shared content session and one or more representations of content that cannot be added to a shared content session, where the representations of content that can be added to a shared content session include respective identifiers indicating that the respective content can be added to the shared content session, and the representations of content that cannot be added to a shared content session do not include identifiers.

In some embodiments, while outputting a first notification (e.g., 6228 and/or 6248) including an indication that content will be output by an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) when the content is output by the computer system, the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6252) selecting the first notification (e.g., a touch gesture (e.g., tap, press and hold) on the first notification, a selection input (e.g., button press) while the first notification is focused, an audio command selecting the first notification). In response to detecting the input selecting the first notification, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A, 6015B) including information (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3) associated with an active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system (e.g., representations (e.g., names, avatars) of participants in the shared content session, representations of groups of users associated with the shared content session, number of participants in the shared content session, content of the shared content session). Displaying a shared content session object including information associated with an active shared content session between the computer system and an external computer system in response to detecting an input selecting the first notification provides additional controls for controlling aspects of the content sharing session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the input is needed, and avoids accidental input while the additional controls are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the shared content session object includes one or more selectable options for controlling the operation, parameters, and/or settings of the active shared content session.

In some embodiments, the shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) includes one or more of a selectable option (e.g., audio on/off option) for controlling audio (e.g., microphone) settings of the active shared content session (e.g., 6015A-6), a selectable option (e.g., video on/off option) for controlling video (e.g., camera) settings of the active shared content session (e.g., 6015A-7), or a selectable option (e.g., content sharing on/off option) for controlling content sharing (e.g., screen sharing) settings of the active shared content session (e.g., 6015A-8). In some embodiments, the shared content session object includes a message affordance, a speaker affordance, an option to leave the active shared content session, and/or an option to view (additional) information about the shared content session (e.g., a group card), such as, for example, the user, user status, and/or content associated with the shared content session.

In some embodiments, displaying the shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) includes displaying a share indicator (e.g., 6015A-8 or 6015B-8) (e.g., selectable options (e.g., content sharing on/off options) for controlling content sharing (e.g., screen sharing) settings for the active shared content session), and pursuant to a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is in a first sharing state for the active shared content session (e.g., screen sharing state), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays the share indicator in a first visual state (e.g., 6015B-8 of FIG. 6P) (e.g., a first appearance, fill, first color, bold, highlight, and/or outline). In accordance with a determination that the computer system is in a second sharing state for the active shared content session that is different from the first sharing state for the active shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays the share indicator in a second visual state (e.g., 6015B-8 of FIG. 6N) that is different from the first visual state (e.g., a second appearance, not filled in, a second color different from the first color, not bolded, not highlighted, and/or not outlined). Displaying the share indicator in the first visual state in accordance with a determination that the computer system is in the first sharing state for the active shared content session and displaying the share indicator in the second visual state in accordance with a determination that the computer system is in the second sharing state for the active shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system as to whether the computer system is in the first sharing state or the second sharing state. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first and second sharing states are each screen sharing states (e.g., the first and second sharing states indicate a screen sharing state of the computer system (e.g., 6000A) with respect to a shared content session (e.g., whether the computer system's screen is in a shared content session or is being shared)). In some embodiments, the state (e.g., appearance) of the sharing indicator is independent of the state of other types of content sharing (e.g., the sharing indicator has the same appearance when the computer system is not sharing content and when the computer system is sharing content other than the computer system's screen).

In some embodiments, after displaying a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) in response to detecting an input selecting the first notification, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) ceases displaying the shared content session object in response to detecting that the display of the shared content session object satisfies one or more shared content session object display criteria sets (e.g., the shared content session object has been output for a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 1 second, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds)). Ceasing display of the shared content session object in response to detecting that the display of the shared content session object satisfies one or more shared content session object display criteria sets reduces calculations performed by the computer system to display controls associated with the shared content session object and avoids accidental input while additional controls are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while outputting content via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) simultaneously displays selectable content controls (e.g., 6152A, 6152A-1, 6152A-2, 6152A-3, and/or 6152A-4) (e.g., video controls, controls provided by the application outputting the content, video chrome) (e.g., controls separate from the controls in the shared content session object) for controlling the output of the content with the shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B). The computer system (e.g., 6000A) ceases displaying (e.g., hiding, minimizing) the shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) without ceasing (e.g., maintaining) the display of the selectable content controls (e.g., 6152A) (e.g., the shared content session object is hidden before the selectable application controls are hidden). Ceasing to display the shared content session object without ceasing to display the selectable content controls provides additional control for controlling aspects of the content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls not required to control the content, and avoids accidental input while the additional controls are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays selectable content controls (e.g., 6152A) for controlling the output of content (e.g., video controls, controls provided by the application outputting the content, video chrome) (e.g., controls separate from the controls in the shared content session object) and then ceases displaying the selectable content controls (e.g., Figs. 6AS-6AT) (e.g., in response to detecting that the respective criteria have been met (e.g., in response to detecting that a predetermined amount of time has elapsed without detecting user input, or in response to detecting user input corresponding to a request to hide the selectable content control). The computer system (e.g., 6000A) ceases displaying the shared content session object (e.g., in response to detecting that the respective criteria have been met (e.g., in response to detecting that a predetermined amount of time has elapsed without detecting user input, or in response to detecting user input corresponding to a request to hide the shared content session object). After ceasing display of the shared content session object and the selectable content controls (e.g., For example, while the shared content session object and selectable content control are not displayed or hidden, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6240) corresponding to a request to output (e.g., re-output, re-display, and/or hide) the selectable content control (e.g., detects a tap or click input directed at the content while the content is playing, or a gesture or other input directed at an area outside the content). In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to output the selectable content control, it displays the selectable content control and displays the shared content session object (e.g., displays the selectable control simultaneously with the shared content session object). Displaying the selectable content control and the shared content session object in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to output the selectable content control provides additional controls for controlling aspects of the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the shared content session object is redisplayed in response to a request to redisplay the selectable content controls. In some embodiments, the selectable content controls are not displayed (e.g., are not redisplayed) in response to a request to display the shared content session object.

In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that an active shared content session exists between a computer system (e.g., 6000A) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) and that the active shared content session includes video content (e.g., video content is being shared between the computer system and the external computer system in the active shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays an indication (e.g., 6228) (e.g., banner, notification) that the video content is in the shared content session (e.g., video content is being output by the external computer system as part of the shared content session) without displaying one or more selectable video control objects (e.g., 6000A in FIG. 6AR) for controlling the video content. Displaying an indication that the video content is in the shared content session without displaying one or more selectable video control objects for controlling the video content in accordance with a determination that an active shared content session exists between the computer system and the external computer system provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the video content is being output at both the computer system and the external computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system displays selectable video controls for controlling the output of video content, which may be hidden, removed, and/or no longer displayed, in response to a determination that a user input and/or a set of criteria (e.g., a time threshold) are met. In some such embodiments, the computer system continues (or maintains) displaying an indication that video content is being output by the external computer system after the selectable video controls are hidden, removed, and/or no longer displayed. In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that a set of criteria are met (e.g., the shared content session is disconnected or inactive and/or the video content is no longer in the shared content session), the computer system ceases displaying an indication that video content is in the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the first set of one or more inputs corresponding to the request to output the content includes a selection of a playback object (e.g., 6144, 6220-1, 6446) (e.g., a play button, icon, affordance) in the media application. In some embodiments, the first set of one or more inputs includes a touch gesture (e.g., a tap) on a playback object in the media application, or a selection input (e.g., a mouse click, a button press on a remote control) while the playback object is in focus (e.g., the playback object is pointed to or the cursor is over the playback object).

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an indication that a request to stop outputting the content (e.g., 6246, 6264, 6350, 6362, or 6364) has occurred (e.g., a request (e.g., user input) at the computer system, data indicating that a user of an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) has requested that the output of the content be stopped). In response to detecting the indication that a request to stop outputting the content has occurred, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays, via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A), a second notification (e.g., 6248, 6250, 6368, or 6370) including an indication that the output of the content has been stopped. In response to detecting the indication that a request to stop outputting the content has occurred, displaying the second notification including an indication that the output of the content has been stopped provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the playback status of the content. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, an indication that content output has ceased is displayed to all participants and/or computer systems connected to the active shared content session.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6194 or 6204) corresponding to a request to open (e.g., launch, bring to the foreground) an application. In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to open the application, in accordance with a determination that the application cannot share content in a shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., the application does not support synchronized content in a shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs, via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A), a third notification (e.g., 6206 or 6208) including an indication that a user interface of the application output by the computer system is output by the external computer system (e.g., the computer system provides a notification that the application is added to the shared content session via screen sharing). Outputting a third notification including an indication that a user interface of the application output by the computer system will be output by the external computer system in accordance with a determination that the application is unable to share content in a shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system provides feedback to a user of the computer system that a user interface of the computer system will be output by the external computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, if the application does not have content sharing capabilities, the computer system displays a notification that the computer system's screen will be shared (e.g., the application (or content therein) will be included in the shared content session by sharing the computer system's screen in the shared content session (as opposed to, e.g., synchronous sharing of content)).

In some embodiments, while a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 6000B) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000A) is active and the shared content session is initiated via the external computer system, after the external computer system disconnects (e.g., leaves) from the shared content session (e.g., in response to input 6372 in FIG. 6BV), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) continues to output content by the computer system (e.g., output continues on 6000B in FIG. 6BW). In some embodiments, after a user (or an external computer system associated with the user) who initiated the shared content session disconnects (e.g., leaves) from the shared content session, the shared content session remains active. In some embodiments, the content in the shared content session continues to be shared with the participants of the shared content session (e.g., the content remains in the shared content session) even if the user (or a computer system associated with the user) who initiated the shared content session leaves the shared content session.

In some embodiments, while a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B or 6000A) is active, the computer system outputs second content (e.g., the screen sharing content of 6000B in FIG. 6P or the video content 6150A in FIG. 6BV) via an output generation component of one or more output generation components (e.g., 6001A), where the second content is output by the external computer system and the second content is added to the shared content session by the external computer system (or, in some embodiments, the second content is added to the shared content session by the computer system). After the external computer system disconnects from the shared content session (e.g., via input 6114 of FIG. 6V or via input 6372 of FIG. 6BV ), in response to receiving an indication that the external computer system has disconnected from the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) continues outputting the second content by the computer system (e.g., outputting video continues at 6000B of FIG. 6BW after 6000A of FIG. 6BV leaves) in response to determining that the second content includes a first type of content (e.g., a user interface output by the external computer system, screen sharing content of the external computer system), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) ceases outputting the second content by the computer system (e.g., ceases sharing the screen (or a portion thereof) of the external computer system) in response to determining that the second content includes a second type of content (e.g., a user interface output by the external computer system, screen sharing content of the external computer system). In some embodiments, the second content is added to the shared content session by the computer system, and the method includes, after the computer system disconnects from the shared content session, one or more of the external computer systems continuing to output the second content if the second content includes a third type of content (e.g., video and/or audio content, content that does not include screen shared content of the computer system), and one or more of the external computer systems ceasing to output the second content if the second content includes a fourth type of content (e.g., a user interface output by the computer system, screen shared content of the computer system).

In some embodiments, while outputting the third content (e.g., 6150A of FIG. 6AB, FIG. 6AY, or FIG. 6BF) by the computer system, the computer system detects a first event (e.g., a video call of FIG. 6AC, input 6268 of FIG. 6AY, or input 6298 of FIG. 6BF) (e.g., removing an earphone or earbuds, receiving a phone call, locking the computer system, activating the camera, quitting a host application, and/or playing media in an application that cannot be added to the shared content session (e.g., the content and/or application is not or does not support the shared content session)). In response to detecting the first event, and in accordance with a determination that there is an active shared content session between the computer system including the third content and the external computer system, the computer system continues outputting the third content by the computer system (e.g., 6000B of FIG. 6AZ). In response to a determination that there is no active shared content session between the computer system including the third content and the external computer system, the computer system stops (e.g., stops or pauses) the output of the third content (e.g., 6000A of FIG. 6AC or content 6150A of FIG. 6BG) by the computer system. In some embodiments, the method includes in response to detecting the first event, in response to a determination that the third content is being output at the computer system and is not included in the shared content session (e.g., the third content is content being played at the computer system but is not shared in the shared content session), stopping (e.g., stops or pauses) the output of the third content by the computer system.

In some embodiments, after detecting the first event and ceasing output of the third content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6164 or 6318) corresponding to a request to output (e.g., resume playing) the third content. In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to output (e.g., resume playing) the third content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs the third content based on the elapsed time since the first event was detected (e.g., FIG. 6BJ) in accordance with a determination that the shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system (e.g., 6000B) remained active since detecting the first event (e.g., resume playing the third content at the position or time that the content would have been if output of the third content had not been ceasing). The computer system (e.g., 6000A), pursuant to determining that the shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system does not remain active since detecting the first event, outputs the third content by the computer system starting from the position of the content corresponding to when the event was detected (e.g., FIG. 6AE) (e.g., resumes playback of the third content at the position or time where the third content was when the event was detected or when output of the third content ceased).

In some embodiments, while outputting a fourth content (e.g., 6150A of FIG. 6AB, FIG. 6AY, or FIG. 6BF) by the computer system, the computer system detects a second event (e.g., video call, input 6246, input 6264, input 6298 of FIG. 6AC). In response to detecting the second event, in accordance with a determination that the second event is a first type of event (e.g., pausing playback, scrubbing the timeline, ending/stopping media content, and/or ending a playback app), the computer system stops outputting the fourth content (e.g., 6000A of FIG. 6AC or content 6150A of FIG. 6BG) (in some embodiments, the computer system stops outputting the fourth content regardless of whether an active shared content session exists between the computer system and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B)). In accordance with a determination that the second event is a second type of event different from the first type of event (e.g., removing the earphone or earbuds, receiving a phone call, locking the computer system, activating the camera, closing the host application, and/or playing media in an application that cannot be added to the shared content session (e.g., the content and/or application is not supported by or does not support the shared content session)), in accordance with a determination that there is an active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) continues outputting the fourth content (e.g., 6000B in FIG. 6AZ), and in accordance with a determination that there is no active shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) ceases outputting the fourth content (e.g., 6000A in FIG. 6AC or content 6150A in FIG. 6BG).

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays (e.g., in an upper corner of a display) a shared content session indicator (e.g., 6020A of FIG. 6BG) (e.g., an icon, an affordance, and/or a persistent graphical representation) indicating that the computer system is connected to a shared content session. In some embodiments, the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6306) corresponding to a selection of the shared content session indicator via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A). In response to detecting the input corresponding to a selection of the shared content session indicator, the computer system simultaneously displays a second shared content session object (e.g., 6015A) including information associated with the shared content session and/or one or more selectable options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session, and a notification (e.g., 6312) including an indication of the participants and/or content in the shared content session (e.g., a persistent notification within or under the second shared content session object). Displaying the shared content session object and notifications simultaneously provides the user with both information and/or options for features associated with the shared content, as well as an indication of the participants and/or content in the shared content session, which provides additional control options and context-related information without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000) receives (e.g., detects) an indication of a third event (e.g., an event that meets criteria for outputting a notification). In response to receiving the indication of the third event, displays a notification of the third event, and in accordance with a determination that the notification of the third event (or the third event itself) is associated with the shared content session, the notification of the third event includes a first color (e.g., notification 6650 and/or notification 6652) (optionally, rather than the second color). In accordance with a determination that the notification of the third event (or the third event itself) is not associated with the shared content session (e.g., notification 6658), the notification of the third event includes a second color (and, optionally, rather than the first color), and the second color is different from the first color. Selectively displaying the third event notification in a first color or a different second color depending on whether the notification is associated with a shared content session automatically, quickly, and efficiently indicates to the user the context of the notification regarding the shared content session, which performs an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input, and provides the user with improved visual feedback. In some embodiments, the first color and the second color are alternative background colors of the third event notification.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000) receives (e.g., detects) an indication of a fourth event (e.g., an event that meets criteria for outputting a notification), and in response to receiving the indication of the fourth event, displays a notification of the fourth event, including that the notification (e.g., notification 6650) includes a third color (optionally, not the fourth color) in accordance with a determination that the notification of the fourth event (or the fourth event itself) is associated with a content sharing session and the computer system is in a first display mode (e.g., a light display mode and/or a daylight display mode), and that the notification of the fourth event (e.g., notification 6658) includes a fourth color (and optionally, not the third color), where the fourth color is different from the third color in accordance with a determination that the notification of the fourth event (or the fourth event) is not associated with a content sharing session and the computer system is in the first display mode. Selectively displaying the notification of the fourth event in a third color or a different fourth color based on the computer system being in a first display mode and depending on whether the notification is associated with a shared content session automatically, quickly, and efficiently indicates to the user the context of the notification regarding the shared content session, which performs an action when a set of conditions are met without requiring further user input, and provides the user with improved visual feedback. In some embodiments, the display mode of the computer system determines a common appearance or manner for displaying user interfaces and/or user interface objects. In some embodiments, the third color and the fourth color are alternative background colors of the notification of the fourth event.

In some embodiments, displaying the notification of the fourth event includes a third color (and optionally not a fourth color) in accordance with a determination that the notification of the fourth event (or the fourth event itself) is not associated with a content sharing session and the computer system is in a second display mode (e.g., a dark display mode and/or a night display mode) different from the first display mode. Selectively displaying the notification of the fourth event in the third color or the fourth color depending on the display mode of the computer system automatically, quickly, and efficiently indicates to the user the context of the notification with respect to the display mode of the computer system, and the computer system performs an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input, providing the user with improved visual feedback. In some embodiments, displaying the notification of the fourth event includes a third color in accordance with a determination that the notification of the fourth event (or the fourth event itself) is associated with a content sharing session and the computer system is in the second display mode. In some embodiments, the notification associated with the content sharing session always includes the third color (e.g., regardless of the display mode). In some embodiments, the first display mode and/or the second display mode are set based on the time of day or based on user activation of a mode control setting.

It should be noted that the process details described above with respect to method 700 (e.g., FIG. 7) are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described below. For example, methods 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 700. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

Figure 8 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for outputting notifications associated with a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) in accordance with some embodiments. Method 800 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A, 6001B, 6007A, and/or 6007B) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensing display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, 6003A, 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 800 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 800 provides an intuitive way to output notifications associated with a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to participate in a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing users to participate in shared content sessions more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

While displaying (802) a first user interface (e.g., 6004A, 6004B, 6018, 6088, 6170A, 6170B, 6434, 6466, or 6468) (e.g., a system user interface (e.g., a "home" screen)) via an output generating component of one or more output generating components, a shared content session between the computer system and an external computer system (e.g., operated by a first user (e.g., a user in a shared content session with the user of the computer system)) (e.g., one or more external computer systems each associated with a user (e.g., a user account)) is active (e.g., the computer system can output separate content (e.g., audio and/or video) while separate content is being output (e.g., simultaneously) by the external computer system). and a user interface for a first application running on the computer system (e.g., a web browser application and/or a music application) while the external computer system is connected to the external computer system, the computer system receiving an indication (e.g., data) that a first content (e.g., synchronized content and/or screen sharing content) has been selected (e.g., 6064, 6224, 6376, 6398, 6432, 6444, or 6470) for a shared content session at the external computer system (e.g., the selection is made at the external computer system), and the first content is associated with a first application (e.g., represented by 6128, 6130, 6434A, or 6434B) on the computer system (e.g., a web browser application, a music application, a movie application, and/or a video application).

In response to receiving an indication (e.g., 6064, 6224, 6376, 6398, 6432, 6444, or 6470) that the first content has been selected for a shared content session, the computer system outputs (806) via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components a first notification (e.g., 6072, 6230, 6380, 6400, 6436, or 6450) (e.g., a notification indicating that content sharing has begun, and/or a banner or alert (optionally including a haptic output and/or an audio output)) generated by a second application (e.g., an application for enabling a shared content session, a system level application in the computer system) different from the first application associated with the first content (e.g., an application for enabling a shared content session, a system level application in the computer system) (e.g., a notification indicating that content sharing has begun, and/or a banner or alert (optionally including a haptic output and/or an audio output)) (in some embodiments, the notification is selectable to display information associated with the shared content session and/or one or more selectable shared content session function options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session). Outputting a first notification generated by a second application distinct from the first application associated with the first content in response to receiving an indication that the first content has been selected for the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first content has been selected for the shared content session, provides additional controls for controlling aspects of the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

After outputting the first notification, and while the shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system is active, the computer system outputs the first content (e.g., 6070, 6150A, or 6150B) using a first application associated with the first content via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components (e.g., displaying image data of the first content and/or outputting audio data of the first content at the computer system using the first application) (808).

In some embodiments, the first user interface is a system user interface (e.g., 6018 or 6088) (e.g., user interface 400, a home screen, a user interface provided and/or controlled by an operating system of the computer system, and/or a displayed user interface that includes user interface objects corresponding to respective applications, where activation of a user interface object causes the computer system to display the respective application corresponding to the activated user interface object).

In some embodiments, the first user interface is a user interface of a third application (e.g., 6004A, 6004B, 6170A, or 6170B) that is different from the first application associated with the first content (and, optionally, different from the second application that generates the first notification). In some embodiments, the computer system outputs the first content (e.g., by opening a new window or launching an application) in a new application interface (e.g., a new window, a picture-in-picture window) other than the first user interface already displayed.

In some embodiments, outputting the first content using a first application associated with the first content includes displaying the first content in a second user interface (e.g., 6070, 6150A, or 6150B) (e.g., an application window, a picture-in-picture (PiP) window, a video application interface, a web browser interface, a music application interface, and/or a user interface different from the first user interface (e.g., the first user interface is a home screen or a first application window and the second user interface is a window including the first content that is separate from the first application window and/or overlaid on the home screen or a window of another application (e.g., a PiP window)). In some embodiments, a first notification (e.g., 6072, 6230, 6380, 6400, 6436, or 6450) generated by the second application includes a representation of the first content displayed in the second user interface (e.g., "First Notification"). Outputting the first notification including a representation of the first content displayed in the second user interface provides feedback to a user of the computer system by providing a preview of the first content, and reduces inputs in the computer system by providing a preview of the first content without requiring the user to navigate to the second user interface to view the first content. Providing improved feedback and reducing computational workload improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first notification is displayed without displaying a representation of the first content. For example, the notification notifies a user of the computer system that content (e.g., the first content) has been added to the shared content session without displaying the content that has been added to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content within the second user interface, the computer system displays a third user interface (e.g., 6004A, 6004B, 6018, 6088, 6170A, 6170B, 6434, 6466, or 6468) that is different from the first and second user interfaces (e.g., an application window), and the second user interface is at least partially behind (e.g., covered by, overlapped by) the third user interface. Displaying the third user interface while displaying the first content within the second user interface at least partially behind the third user interface provides feedback to a user of the computer system by providing a preview of the first content without obstructing the user's view of the third user interface, does not require the user to navigate to the second user interface to view the first content, and reduces input in the computer system by providing a preview of the first content while continuing to view the third content without requiring the user to navigate away from the first content to view the third user interface. Improves usability of the computer system by providing improved feedback and reducing computational effort, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system displays in the second user interface a first indication (e.g., 6100 or 6230) (e.g., names, initials, video representations, and/or avatars) of the participants in the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session. Displaying the first indication in the second user interface of the participants in the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system informing the user who selected the first content for the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system detects a first input (e.g., 6092) directed to the second user interface (e.g., user input directed to a location corresponding to the second user interface, tapping, clicking, hovering, and/or gazing at the second user interface). In some embodiments, displaying a first indication (e.g., 6100-1) in the second user interface of a participant in the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session occurs in response to detecting the first input directed to the second user interface (e.g., a user may tap, click, hover, and/or gaze at the second user interface to display (or optionally hide) an indication of a participant who added the first content to the shared content session). In some embodiments, if the first indication is displayed in the second user interface, the computer system ceases displaying (e.g., hides) the first indication in response to detecting the input directed to the second user interface.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content in the second user interface and while the second user interface occupies a first amount of the available display area (e.g., a predetermined amount of the display area), the computer system detects a second input (e.g., 6092, 6104, or 6242) directed to the second user interface (e.g., selection of an expanded window option (e.g., an icon, an affordance, and/or a button) or a full screen option). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the second input directed to the second user interface, the computer system initiates a process for displaying the first content in an expanded display mode (e.g., 6000A of FIG. 6T or 6000B of FIG. 6AU) (e.g., full screen mode), which includes increasing a size of the first content within the available display area (e.g., expanding the second user interface to occupy the full screen, automatically (e.g., without further input) displaying the first content in full screen mode). Initiating a process for displaying the first content in an expanded display mode in response to detecting a second input directed to the second user interface provides feedback to a user of the computer system by changing (e.g., expanding) the display size of the first content, providing additional controls for changing the display size of the first content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the input is detected, and avoiding accidental input with the additional control options displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, when content is displayed in an extended display mode (e.g., full screen mode), the content itself does not occupy the entire display or screen. For example, in an extended display mode, the content may be displayed within a user interface that occupies the entire display or screen, the user interface including the content as well as other features such as, for example, controls, docks, and/or borders.

In some embodiments, the process of displaying the first content in the expanded display mode includes displaying a selectable expansion option (e.g., 6100-2) (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) (e.g., in the second user interface, overlaid on the first content) without displaying the first content in the expanded display mode (e.g., while continuing to display the second user interface at a size that occupies less than the full screen while maintaining the current size of the second user interface). In some embodiments, the process of displaying the first content in the expanded display mode includes detecting an input (e.g., 6104) corresponding to a selection of the expansion option. In some embodiments, the process of displaying the first content in the expanded display mode includes displaying the first content in the expanded display mode (e.g., 6000A of FIG. 6T) (e.g., displaying the first content in a window that occupies the full screen of one or more screens displayed by one or more output generation components) in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the expansion option.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content (e.g., 6000A of FIG. 6T) in the expanded display mode, the computer system displays (e.g., in a second user interface) a second indication (e.g., 6100-1 of FIG. 6U) (e.g., names, initials, video representations, and/or avatars) of the participants in the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session. Displaying the second indication of the participants in the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session while displaying the first content in the expanded display mode provides feedback to a user of the computer system by informing the user who added the first content to the shared content session, provides additional control for displaying the second indication without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content in the expanded display mode, the computer system displays (e.g., in an upper corner of the display) a first shared content session indicator (e.g., 6020A, 6020B, or 6021B) (e.g., an icon, an affordance, and/or a persistent graphical representation) indicating that the computer system is connected to a shared content session. Displaying the first shared content session indicator while displaying the first content in the expanded display mode provides feedback to a user of the computer system indicating that the computer system is connected to a shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first shared content session indicator is displayed prior to displaying the first content in the expanded display mode and remains displayed while the first content is displayed in the expanded display mode or when the computer system transitions to displaying the first content in the expanded display mode. In some embodiments, the first shared content session indicator can be selected to display a shared content session object that includes information associated with the shared content session and/or one or more selectable shared content session function options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content in the expanded display mode, the computer system displays a selectable reduce size option (e.g., 6100-3) that, when selected, causes the first content to cease being displayed in the expanded display mode (e.g., optionally displaying the first content in a window that occupies less than the expanded size (e.g., full screen)). Displaying the selectable reduce size option while displaying the first content in the expanded display mode provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the computer system is displaying the first content from a shared content session, provides additional control to stop the first content from being displayed in the expanded display mode without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the reduce size option is selectively displayed or hidden in response to detecting an input. For example, the reduce size option may be displayed in response to detecting an input on a window displaying the first content, a cursor hovering over the first content, and/or a gaze directed at the first content. For example, the reduce size option may cease to be displayed (e.g., hidden) in response to detecting an input on a window displaying the first content, and/or a cursor and/or a gaze being moved away from the first content (e.g., from above or directed at the first content to not above or directed at the first content).

In some embodiments, the computer system displays (e.g., while displaying the first content in an extended display mode) an indication (e.g., 6077A or 6077B) (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) of a location where the computer system responds to a respective input gesture (e.g., 6256) (e.g., a home gesture, a swipe gesture) to display a system user interface (e.g., 6018 or 6088) (e.g., user interface 400, a home screen, a user interface provided and/or controlled by the operating system of the computer system, and/or a display user interface including user interface objects corresponding to respective applications, where upon activation of a user interface object, the computer system displays the respective application corresponding to the activated user interface object). Displaying an indication of a location where the computer system displays the system user interface in response to the respective input gesture provides a user of the computer system with feedback of a location on an input device configured to receive input for displaying the system user interface. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content (e.g., in an expanded display mode), the computer system displays one or more graphical user interface objects (e.g., 6106, 6077A, 6077B, or 6118) of the first user interface (e.g., a battery level indicator, a privacy indicator, and/or a signal strength indicator, and/or a status bar including a selectable home option) and displays a portion of the first content (e.g., 6021B') that overlaps with the one or more graphical user interface objects of the first user interface (e.g., displaying the portion of the first content that is under the one or more graphical user interface objects at a reduced resolution and/or visibility (e.g., compared to the portion of the first content that does not overlap with the one or more graphical user interface objects)). Displaying the portion of the first content that overlaps with the one or more graphical user interface objects of the first user interface while displaying the first content provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the computer system is displaying the first content from the shared content session while still displaying the one or more graphical user interface objects of the first user interface. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, portions of the first content displayed beneath one or more graphical user interface objects of the first user interface are blurred, faded, and/or de-emphasized to highlight the one or more graphical user interface objects of the first user interface and to indicate that the one or more graphical user interface objects of the first user interface are not part of the first content (e.g., shared content).

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content in the expanded display mode, the computer system displays one or more shared content session indicators (e.g., 6015A, 6015B, 6020A, or 6020B) including information about the shared content session (e.g., a first indication (e.g., name, initials, video representation, and/or avatar) of a participant of the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session, and/or a graphical indicator (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) indicating that the computer system is connected to the shared content session (e.g., displayed only when the computer system is connected to an active shared content session). In some embodiments, while displaying the first content in the expanded display mode, pursuant to a determination that a timeout criterion is met (e.g., a predetermined amount of time has elapsed since the computer system began displaying the first content in the expanded display mode), the computer system ceases displaying the one or more shared content session indicators. Ceasing to display the one or more shared content session indicators pursuant to a determination that the timeout criterion is met reduces input at the computer system by automatically ceasing display of the one or more shared content session indicators without requiring additional user input. Improves operability of the computer system by reducing the computational workload, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content in the extended display mode (e.g., while the first user interface is hidden), the computer system displays a privacy indicator (e.g., 6118) that is displayed when (e.g., only when) the computer system is recording (e.g., via a camera and/or microphone) media being added to (e.g., shared) in the shared content session. Displaying the privacy indicator when the computer system is recording media being added to the shared content session provides feedback to the user of the computer system that a media recording device is active. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system displays the privacy indicator pursuant to a determination that the computer system is, optionally, a recording medium being added to the shared content session (and, optionally, the first content is displayed in the expanded display mode). In some embodiments, the privacy indicator remains displayed when all other elements of the first user interface of the computer system are obscured (e.g., by the first content being displayed in the expanded display mode). In some embodiments, the computer system continues to display the privacy indicator for a predetermined amount of time after the media recording device (e.g., the camera and/or microphone) is turned off or becomes inactive. In some embodiments, the computer system displays the privacy indicator when the first content is not in the expanded display mode.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first content in the extended display mode, the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6256) (e.g., activation of a "Home" button, a swipe up gesture, and/or a swipe up gesture starting at the bottom of the display) corresponding to a request to display a system user interface (e.g., 6018 or 6088) (e.g., a home screen) of the computer system. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input corresponding to a request to display a system user interface of the computer system, the computer system ceases displaying the first content in the extended display mode and displays the first content in a second user interface (e.g., 6000B of FIG. 6AW) occupying less than the full screen (e.g., displaying at least a portion of a user interface different from the second user interface (e.g., a user interface of an application different from the application used to display the first content in the home screen and/or the second user interface)).

In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request for the computer system to display a system user interface, the computer system displays the first content in a window (e.g., a PiP window) having the same size and/or location as the window in which the first content was displayed before entering full-screen mode.

In some embodiments, while outputting the first content in the second user interface (e.g., not in an extended display mode), the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6234) corresponding to a request to hide the second user interface (e.g., a swipe or flick gesture on the second user interface, a swipe up gesture from the bottom of the display, and/or an input corresponding to a request to display a home screen). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to hide the second user interface, the computer system ceases displaying at least a portion of the second user interface (e.g., 6000B of FIG. 6AR) (e.g., optionally while continuing to display (e.g., in an edge region of the display) at least a portion of the second user interface or a representation of the second user interface (e.g., a graphical element selectable to redisplay at least a portion of the second user interface). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to hide the second user interface, the computer system also redisplays at least a portion of the display area previously occupied by at least a portion of the second user interface. In some embodiments, the computer system continues to output audio of the first content after ceasing to display the second user interface. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to hide the second user interface, the computer system ceasing to display the second user interface and displays an indication that the second user interface is hidden.

In some embodiments, while outputting the first content in the second user interface (e.g., 6070), the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6082) corresponding to a request to move the second user interface (e.g., a drag gesture initiated on the second user interface, a click and hold or press and hold input, followed by movement of the input while the click or press is maintained). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to move the second user interface, the computer system moves the second user interface (e.g., while continuing to output the first content in the second user interface). In some embodiments, moving the second user interface includes repositioning and/or translating the second user interface from the first display location to the second display location, optionally without resizing the second user interface. In some embodiments, while outputting the first content in the second user interface, the computer system detects an input corresponding to a request to resize the second user interface (e.g., a pinch or unpinch gesture and/or a drag on a corner region of the second user interface). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to resize the second user interface, the computer system resizes the second user interface (e.g., expands/reduces a display size of the second user interface).

In some embodiments, the first notification includes a third indication (e.g., name, initials, and/or avatar) of a participant of the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session (e.g., added the first content to the shared content session). Outputting the first notification including the third indication of the participant of the shared content session who selected the first content for the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the participant selected the first content for the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, outputting the first content includes navigating to (e.g., displaying and/or bringing to the foreground) a first application (and optionally displaying a shared content session object including information associated with the shared content session, and/or one or more selectable shared content session functionality options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective functionality associated with the shared content session) in accordance with a determination that outputting the first content does not include displaying a visual representation of the first content (e.g., the first content is music, songs, and/or other audio content that does not include video). Navigating to the first application in accordance with a determination that outputting the first content does not include displaying a visual representation of the first content reduces input in the computer system by automatically navigating to the first content without requiring additional user input. Executing an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input enhances the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs when operating/interacting with the computer system and reducing user errors), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that outputting the first content includes displaying a visual representation of the first content (e.g., 6000B of FIG. 6AQ) (e.g., the first content includes an image and/or a video), information associated with the shared content session (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015A-2, 6015A-3, 6015B-1, 6015B-2, and/or 6015B-3) and/or one or more selectable shared content session feature options (e.g., 6015A- and displaying a first shared content session object (e.g., 6015A, 6015B or 6230) including a first shared content session object (e.g., 6015A, 6015B or 6230) including a first shared content session object (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015A-4, 6015A-5, 6015A-6, 6015A-7, 6015A-8, 6015B-1, 6015B-4, 6015B-5, 6015B-6, 6015B-7 and/or 6015B-8) that, when selected, causes the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session without navigating to (e.g., displaying and/or foregrounding) the first application. Displaying the first shared content session object pursuant to a determination that outputting the first content includes displaying a visual representation of the first content provides additional control for causing the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session without navigating to the first application, without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system displays the visual representation of the first content without navigating to the first application or displaying the shared content session object.

In some embodiments, the computer system receives (e.g., via input 6116 or 6362) an indication (e.g., data) that the first content has been removed from the shared content session (e.g., the first content is no longer being shared). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the indication that the first content has been removed from the shared content session, the computer system outputs a content removal notification (e.g., 6120 or 6370) that includes an indication (e.g., text) that the first content has been removed from the shared content session (e.g., "Participant X has stopped sharing content A"). Outputting the content removal notification in response to receiving the indication that the first content has been removed from the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first content has been removed from the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system detects an input corresponding to a selection of the content removal notification. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the content removal notification, the computer system displays one or more representations of a status (e.g., 6038A, 6038B, 6042A, and/or 6042B) (e.g., joined, invited, and/or inactive) of a user associated with the shared content session in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the content removal notification in the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system about a status of a user associated with the shared content session in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the content removal notification. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system receives an indication (e.g., data) that the first content has ended (e.g., a participant in the shared content session has stopped the first content and/or started playing different content instead of the first content). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the indication that the first content has ended, the computer system displays a content end notification (e.g., 6120 or 6370) that includes an indication (e.g., text, initials, and/or avatar) of the participant in the shared content session who ended the first content (and optionally an indication of the first content and/or an action taken with respect to the first content) (e.g., "Participant X has ended content A"). Displaying the content end notification in response to receiving the indication that the first content has ended provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the participant in the shared content session who ended the first content. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system receives an indication (e.g., data) that the first content has ended (e.g., the end of the first content has been reached and/or a participant in the shared content session has stopped the first content or started playing different content instead of the first content). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the indication that the first content has ended, the computer system displays a content end notification (e.g., 6120 or 6370) including an indication (e.g., text) that the first content has ended and stops outputting the first content (e.g., 6000A of FIG. 6W or 6000B of FIG. 6BT) (e.g., stops playing the first content and/or closes a window or application that was outputting the first content). Stopping outputting the first content and displaying a content end notification in response to receiving the indication that the first content has ended provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first content has ended and reduces input on the computer system by automatically ending the first content without requiring additional user input. Improves usability of the computer system by providing improved feedback and reducing computational effort, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system receives a request to display a separate portion of a messaging application user interface (e.g., 6004A or 6004B) that includes a plurality of messages (e.g., 6004A-1 or 6004B-1) between users associated with the shared content session. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the request to display a separate portion of a messaging application user interface, the computer system displays a messaging application user interface (e.g., 6004A or 6004B) that includes (e.g., within a conversation area of the messaging application user interface) a plurality of messages (e.g., 6004A-1 or 6004B-1) between users associated with the shared content session (e.g., users invited to the shared content session, a group of users in a message conversation). Pursuant to a determination that a shared content session is available (e.g., the shared content session is active and a shared content session can be initiated), a shared content session notification (e.g., 6010A, 6010B, and/or 6024) (e.g., a message that a shared content session is available) is displayed within a user interface of the messaging application (e.g., within a conversation area of the user interface of the messaging application) including information associated with the shared content session (e.g., a representation (e.g., name, initials, video representation, and/or avatar) of the user who initiated the shared content session, the number of participants in the shared content session, representations of the participants in the shared content session, and/or content of the shared content session). Displaying the shared content session notification within the user interface of the messaging application pursuant to a determination that a shared content session is available provides feedback to a user of the computer system that a shared content session is available and provides information associated with the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the first content includes, pursuant to a determination that a video chat is ongoing with one or more participants in the shared content session, simultaneously displaying the first content (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6AQ) along with video representations (e.g., 6176, 6178, and/or 6184) of one or more other participants in the shared content session (e.g., video representations that are displayed separately from the first content (and, optionally, may be positioned and resized separately from the first content) or video representations that are inserted into the first content). Simultaneously displaying the first content along with video representations of one or more other participants in the shared content session reduces input in the computer system by automatically simultaneously displaying the first content along with the video representations of the one or more other participants such that a user of the computer system can interact with the one or more other participants via the video chat while also viewing the first content without requiring additional user input to navigate between user interfaces. Improves operability of the computer system by reducing the computational workload, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that a video chat is not in progress with one or more participants in the shared content session, the first content is displayed without displaying video representations of other participants in the shared content session. In some embodiments, multiple representations of the other participants are displayed simultaneously with the first content.

In some embodiments, outputting the first notification includes displaying the first notification (e.g., displaying a banner and/or a pop-up notification). In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the notification dismissal criteria have been met (e.g., the first notification has been displayed for a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, or 5 seconds)), the computer system ceases displaying the first notification (e.g., automatically dismisses the first notification without user input). Ceasing to display the first notification pursuant to a determination that the notification dismissal criteria have been met reduces input in the computer system by automatically ceasing displaying the first notification without requiring additional user input. By reducing the computational workload, the computer system is improved in operability, the user-system interface is made more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and in addition, power usage is reduced and battery life is improved for the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system detects a first input (e.g., 6232) corresponding to a selection of the first notification (e.g., 6230). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the first input corresponding to a selection of the first notification, the computer system displays a second shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) that includes one or more selectable options (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015A-4, 6015A-5, 6015A-6, 6015A-7, 6015A-8, 6015B-1, 6015B-4, 6015B-5, 6015B-6, 6015B-7, and/or 6015B-8) that, when selected, causes the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session (and, optionally, includes information associated with the shared content session) (e.g., control of the shared content session). Displaying the second shared content session object in response to detecting a first input corresponding to selection of the first notification provides additional controls for performing distinct functions associated with the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the first input corresponding to selection of the first notification is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the one or more selectable options include, for example, audio on/off, video on/off, shared content session on/off, and/or a link to a user interface (e.g., a group status card) that displays the users' status of the shared content session.

In some embodiments, in conjunction with displaying the second shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B), the computer system moves the display (e.g., 6015A or 6150B) (e.g., display location) of the first content (e.g., FIG. 6AS) (e.g., move the application window displaying the first content and/or move the second user interface). Moving the display of the first content in conjunction with the display of the second shared content session object reduces input in the computer system by automatically moving the display of the first content to correspond to the display of the second shared content session object without requiring further user input. By reducing the computational workload, the computer system is improved in usability, the user system interface is made more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and in addition, power usage is reduced and battery life of the computer system is improved by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection of the first notification, the computer system moves the display of the first content to avoid overlap with the display of the shared content session object.

In some embodiments, the output of the first content on the computer system is synchronized with the output of the first content on the external computer system (e.g., Figures 6AQ-6BU) (e.g., the first content is synchronized content, and data identifying the first content, the position of the first content, and/or actions controlling the output of the first content (e.g., stop, play, pause, fast forward, rewind, and/or track skip) are exchanged via the shared content session without transmitting the actual first content).

In some embodiments, while outputting the first content, the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6246, 6278, 6336, or 6362) (e.g., activation of a media control button) via one or more input devices corresponding to a request to modify (e.g., stop, start, pause, rewind, and/or fast forward) the output (e.g., playback) of the first content (e.g., content not added to the shared content session by a user of the computer system). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to the request to modify the output of the first content, the computer system outputs (e.g., at the computer system) the first content (e.g., modifies its output) in accordance with the request to modify the output of the first content.

In some embodiments, a request at the computer system to modify the output of the first content causes the output of the first content to be modified at the external computer system in accordance with the request to modify the output of the first content. In this manner, the output of content selected for a shared content session at the external computer system can be controlled by input at the computer system, where the input can affect the output at both the computer system and the external computer system. Similarly, the output of content selected for a shared content session at the external computer system can be controlled by input at a different external computer system, where the input can affect the output at the computer system, the external computer system, and the different external computer system.

In some embodiments, the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6384 and/or 6390) corresponding to a request to output the first content (e.g., before outputting the first content using a first application associated with the first content). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to output the first content, the computer system displays a user interface (e.g., 6392) of a second application (e.g., an app store application) that provides the ability to download the first application (or another application that can provide access to the first content) (e.g., 6394) in accordance with a determination that the first application is not available in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to output the first content, thereby reducing input at the computer system by automatically displaying a user interface of the second application that provides the ability to download the first application without requiring additional user input. Improves operability of the computer system by reducing the computational workload, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system displays a selectable download option (e.g., 6394) (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) in the user interface of the second application that, when selected, causes the computer system to initiate a download (e.g., installation) of the first application (or another application that can provide access to the first content). Displaying the selectable download option in the user interface of the second application provides the computer system with an additional control to initiate a download of the first application without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing the additional control option without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first notification includes a selectable session move option (e.g., 6492 or 6502) (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) that, when selected, causes output of a portion of content corresponding to the shared content session (e.g., audio or video representative of one or more participants in the shared content session and/or real-time communication session (e.g., video chat)) via an output device (e.g., 6500) (e.g., a control device, a set-top device, and/or a receiver) in communication with the second computer system (e.g., a monitor, television, screen, and/or display generating component) (and, optionally, disconnects the computer system from the communication session). Outputting the first notification that includes the selectable session move option provides additional control for causing output of a portion of content corresponding to the shared content session via an output device in communication with the second computer system without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, selecting the session transfer option causes the computer system to transfer or move (e.g., via a wireless communication protocol) the communication session from the computer system to a second computer system (e.g., via an output device in communication with the second computer system). In some embodiments, causing output of a portion of the content corresponding to the shared content session via an output device in communication with the second computer system includes adding the output device and/or the second computer system to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, a computer system displays a real-time communication interface (e.g., 6170A or 6170B) of a real-time communication session between multiple users, the real-time communication interface including one or more representations (e.g., 6176, 6178, and/or 6184) (e.g., video feeds and/or avatars) of a set of users (e.g., participants) of the real-time communication session, the one or more representations occupying a first display location. In some embodiments, outputting the first content includes displaying the first content (e.g., 6150B) at a second display location that does not include the first display location (e.g., 6000B of FIG. 6AQ). Displaying the first content at a second display location that does not include the first display location reduces input in the computer system by automatically positioning the location of the first content to avoid locations occupied by one or more representations of the set of users of the real-time communication session without requiring additional user input. Improves operability of the computer system by reducing the computational workload, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first content is displayed simultaneously with one or more representations of the set of users of the real-time communication session such that the first content does not overlap with the one or more representations of the set of users of the real-time communication session. In some embodiments, the computer system moves one or more representations of the set of users of the real-time communication session (e.g., within the real-time communication interface) to avoid (e.g., compensate for) display of the first content and/or the shared content session object.

In some embodiments, outputting the first notification includes displaying the first notification such that the first notification is overlaid on (e.g., on top of, in front of, and/or in the foreground relative to) one or more graphical objects of the first user interface.

In some embodiments, the computer system detects a second input corresponding to a selection of the first notification. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the second input corresponding to a selection of the first notification, the computer system displays the first content in the foreground with respect to the first user interface (e.g., the first content is moved from behind the one or more graphical objects to in front of the one or more graphical objects).

In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that the first content has been selected for the shared content session (e.g., FIG. 14AA described below), the computer system visually highlights (e.g., visually distinguishes, highlights, animates, and/or initially displays) a graphical element (e.g., 14248) corresponding to the first application (e.g., a selectable icon that, when selected, launches, opens, and/or brings to the foreground the first application). Visually highlighting the graphical element corresponding to the first application in response to receiving an indication that the first content has been selected for the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first content is associated with the first application, and in some embodiments indicates that the first application is being launched and/or used to output the first content. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the graphical element corresponding to the first application is displayed, added to, and/or displayed adjacent to an application dock (e.g., an area of a display that includes multiple application icons for launching respective applications). In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that the first content has been selected for the shared content session, the computer system displays an animation of the graphical element corresponding to the first application, e.g., a bouncing animation within the application dock.

In some embodiments, the first content includes one or more window controls of a user interface (e.g., 14126 in FIG. 14I described below) (e.g., application window) displayed by the external computer system (e.g., screen sharing content), where the one or more window controls correspond to display options (e.g., close window, minimize window, and/or maximize window) of the user interface displayed by the external computer system (e.g., 14000A). In some embodiments, outputting the first content using a first application associated with the first content via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components includes displaying a representation of the one or more window controls in a disabled state (e.g., 14128) (e.g., the one or more window controls are not selectable via one or more input devices communicating with the computer system, the one or more window controls are grayed out, semi-transparent, and/or have a different visual appearance than that displayed by the external computer system). Displaying the representation of the one or more window controls in a disabled state provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first content is associated with a shared content session and that the one or more window controls are not selectable using the computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the user interface displayed by the external computer system includes a graphical shared content session status indicator that indicates the status of the external computer system with respect to the shared content system (e.g., the external computer system is connected to a shared content session) and/or the status of the external computer system's user interface with respect to the shared content session (e.g., whether the user interface is in a shared content session (e.g., shared with other participants in the shared content session)). In some embodiments, the shared content session status indicator is not included in the first content and/or is not displayed by the computer system, e.g., even if the user interface of the external computer system is in a shared content session.

In some embodiments, the computer system, via an output generating component of one or more output generating components, outputs the first content using a first application associated with the first content (e.g., the computer system accesses an account and/or subscriptions required to access the first content) in accordance with a determination that the computer system (or a user associated with the computer system) is entitled to the first content (e.g., 6000B of FIG. 6AQ) (and, optionally, in response to receiving an indication that the first content has been selected for the shared content session). In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that the first content has been selected for the shared content session, in accordance with a determination that the computer system (or a user associated with the computer system) is not entitled to the first content (e.g., the computer system does not have access to an account and/or a valid subscription required to access the first content and/or the user is not signed in to the account), the computer system outputs an entitlement notification (e.g., 6406 and/or 6408) (e.g., a graphical object (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) including a description of the application and/or subscription required to access the first content). Outputting the eligibility notification provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the computer system is not currently eligible to output the first content. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system detects, via one or more input devices, an input (e.g., 6410) corresponding to a selection of an entitlement notice (e.g., 6406 and/or 6408). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input corresponding to the selection of the entitlement notice, the computer system displays a selectable entitlement acquisition option (e.g., 6408 or 6414) (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) that, when selected, initiates a process (e.g., as shown in Figures 6CE-6CG) for acquiring (e.g., purchasing, renting, and/or downloading) an entitlement (e.g., access to the first content via an application, subscription, and/or purchase or rental) that enables access to the first content. Displaying the selectable entitlement acquisition option in response to detecting the input corresponding to the selection of the entitlement notice provides additional control for acquiring an entitlement that enables access to the first content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the process for obtaining an entitlement includes displaying a website or application that provides the user with the ability to select the entitlement, enter payment information, start a free trial, and/or complete the purchase of the entitlement.

In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the first content has been selected for the shared content session using the first entitlement, the obtain entitlement option (e.g., 6408 or 6414) when selected initiates a process for obtaining the first entitlement. In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the first content has been selected for the shared content session using a second entitlement different from the first entitlement, the obtain entitlement option (e.g., 6408 or 6414) when selected initiates a process for obtaining the second entitlement. In some embodiments, the particular rights obtained via the obtain entitlement option are determined based on which rights are used to initiate playback of the first content in the shared content session. For example, if the first entitlement is used to initiate playback of the first content, the obtain entitlement option is selectable to obtain the first entitlement, and if the second entitlement is used to initiate playback of the first content, the obtain entitlement option is selectable to obtain the second entitlement.

In some embodiments, the computer system detects a set of one or more inputs (e.g., 6410, 6416, 6422, and/or 6426) that result in acquisition (e.g., purchase) of an entitlement, the one or more inputs including an input corresponding to selection of an entitlement acquisition option (e.g., 6408 or 6414). In some embodiments, the computer system displays information related to the acquisition of the entitlement, such as a cost of the entitlement (e.g., purchase price), duration of the entitlement, user consent, and/or promotional content. In some embodiments, the set of one or more inputs includes an input corresponding to initiation of a purchase, verification of a user's identity (e.g., using biometric verification, user identification, passcode, and/or password), and/or activation of a hardware input element such as a button (e.g., 204 and/or 206) and/or an input mechanism (e.g., 506 and/or 508). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a set of one or more inputs that result in the acquisition of an entitlement, the computer system outputs the first content (e.g., display 6150B of FIG. 6CH) according to the status of the first content with respect to the shared content session (e.g., time 2:35) (e.g., initiate playback of the first content at a position or time within the first content at which an external computer system connected to the shared content session is playing the first content, and/or initiate playback of the first content based on the status or progress of playback in the shared content session).

In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that the first content has been selected for the shared content session, and in accordance with a determination that the computer system does not have the qualifications used to select the first content for the shared content session at the external computer system, the computer system discontinues output of the first content (e.g., 6000B in FIG. 6CC).

In some embodiments, if a participant in a shared content session does not have credentials that match the credentials used by the user who initiated the sharing of the first content to select the first content for the shared content session, the first content is not played for that participant.

In some embodiments, outputting the first content includes outputting the first content in the fifth user interface (e.g., the second user interface, the application window, and/or the PiP window) while the fifth user interface is in a first display state (e.g., a size, location, minimized, maximized, docked, an extended display state, and/or full screen). In some embodiments, while the fifth user interface is in the first display state, the computer system detects a request to change the display state of the fifth user interface (e.g., 6082, 6104, 6234, 6236, 6242, 6342, or 6346). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the request to change the display state of the fifth user interface, the computer system changes the display state of the fifth user interface to a second display state different from the first display state (e.g., changes a size and/or location of the fifth user interface) in accordance with the request to change the display state of the fifth user interface. In some embodiments, while the fifth user interface is in the second display state, the computer system receives an indication (e.g., data) that a second content different from the first content has been selected for the shared content session at the second external computer system. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the indication that the second content has been selected for the shared content session, the computer system outputs the second content in the second display state (e.g., replaces the displayed content in the fifth user interface with the second content, ceases displaying the fifth user interface, and displays the second content in a sixth user interface having the same size and/or location as the fifth user interface). Outputting the second content in the second display state reduces input on the computer system by automatically displaying the content in a location previously selected by the user, without having to prompt the user for a display location or requiring the user to navigate to the content to that location. Improves operability of the computer system by reducing the computational workload, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system receives an indication (e.g., data) that a first event (e.g., a user joins a shared content session, a participant leaves a shared content session, and/or a user changes the output of content in the shared content session (e.g., play, pause, stop, fast forward, rewind, skip track, and/or change content)) has occurred in the shared content session (e.g., a participant leaves the shared content session of FIG. 6R) that meets a first notification criterion (e.g., the action is a type of action for which a notification will be displayed unless other criteria are met). In some embodiments, after receiving an indication that a first event has occurred in the shared content session that meets the first notification criterion, the computer system receives an indication (e.g., data) that a second event has occurred in the shared content session that meets the first notification criterion (e.g., 6000A detects an audio "Wow!" while the microphone is muted in FIG. 6R). In some embodiments, after (e.g., in response to) receiving an indication that a second event that satisfies the first notification criterion has occurred in the shared content session, in accordance with a determination that a notification suppression criterion is met, including criteria that are met if an indication that the second event occurred is received before the notification of the first event is output (e.g., an indication of the second event is received before the notification of the first event is output, an indication of the second event is received within a predetermined amount of time of receiving the indication of the first event, and/or the second event is determined to have a higher notification priority than the first event, or any combination thereof), the computer system outputs a notification of the second event (e.g., 6098) without outputting a notification of the first event (e.g., 6086) (e.g., not outputting a notification of the first action and/or suppressing the notification of the first action), and in accordance with a determination that the notification suppression criterion is not met, the computer system outputs a notification of the first event and outputs a notification of the second event. Outputting the notification of the second event with or without the notification of the first event according to a determination of whether the notification suppression criteria are met reduces the computational workload of the computer system and improves user feedback by precluding display of the notification of the first event if the notification suppression criteria are met (e.g., if it becomes irrelevant before the first notification is displayed). Reducing the computational workload of the computer system and providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system receives an indication that a third event (e.g., a user joins the shared content session, a participant leaves the shared content session) has occurred in the shared content session that meets a second notification criterion (e.g., the action is a type of event for which a notification should be displayed unless other criteria are met). In some embodiments, the computer system receives an indication that a fourth event has occurred in the shared content session that meets the second notification criterion (e.g., after receiving an indication that a third event that meets the notification criterion has occurred in the shared content session). In some embodiments, after (e.g., in response to) receiving an indication that a fourth event has occurred in the shared content session that satisfies the second notification criterion, notification aggregation criteria may be set that include criteria that are met if the third event and the fourth event are determined to be the same type of event (e.g., an indication of the fourth event is received before a notification of the third event is output, an indication of the fourth event is received within a predetermined amount of time of receiving the indication of the third event, and the third event is an event of the same type as the fourth event (e.g., joining a shared content session, leaving a shared content session, and/or a change in connection state with respect to the shared content session). [0081] If notification aggregation criteria (including criteria that are met when it is determined that the third event and the fourth event are not met, or any combination thereof) are met, the computer system outputs a first notification (e.g., 6028 of FIG. 6G) (e.g., outputting a combined or aggregated notification, a single notification including information about the third event and the fourth event, and/or outputting no notification for the third event and a separate notification for the fourth event), and pursuant to a determination that the notification aggregation criteria are not met, the computer system outputs a second notification (e.g., 6028 of FIG. 6F) that is different from the first notification (e.g., a notification for a third action), and outputs a third notification (e.g., 6086) that is different from the first notification and the second notification (e.g., a notification for a fourth action, separate notification). Outputting the first notification pursuant to a determination that the notification aggregation criteria is met and outputting the second notification and the third notification pursuant to a determination that the notification aggregation criteria is not met reduces the computational workload of the computer system and improves user feedback by aggregating the notifications, thereby eliminating excessive display of notifications when the notification aggregation criteria is met (e.g., when the third event and the fourth event are the same type of event). Reducing the computational workload of the computer system and providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system discontinues output of the first content via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components. In some embodiments, the computer system discontinues output of the first content in response to a request to output selected content that is different from content in the shared content session, e.g., content selected to be output by the computer system but not selected for the shared content session (e.g., private and/or non-shared content displayed only by the local computer system). In some embodiments, the request to output the selected content does not include a request to add the selected content to the shared content session. In some embodiments, after ceasing output of the first content via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components, while the first content is in the shared content session (e.g., the computer system has stopped playing the first content, but the first content is still shared in the shared content session), pursuant to (e.g., in response to) a determination that the shared content reminder criteria has been met (e.g., output of content selected for output by the computer system but not for the shared content session (e.g., private content) has ended and/or a condition or event that caused the computer system to cease output of the first content has ended), the computer system outputs a shared content reminder notification (e.g., 6015A-1, 6312, and/or 6314) indicating that the first content is in the shared content session (e.g., output of the first content is available via the shared content session). Outputting a shared content reminder notification pursuant to a determination that the shared content reminder criteria is met provides feedback indicating that the first content is in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the shared content reminder criteria are not met, the computer system refrains from outputting a shared content reminder notification that the first content is in the shared content session (e.g., the computer system waits to output the shared content reminder notification until the shared content reminder criteria are met).

In some embodiments, the computer system detects a third input corresponding to a selection of the first notification. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the third input corresponding to a selection of the first notification, the computer system displays a third shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) that includes information associated with the shared content session (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015A-2, 6015A-3, 6015B-1, 6015B-2, and/or 6015B-3) and/or one or more selectable shared content session function options (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015A-4, 6015A-5, 6015A-6, 6015A-7, 6015A-8, 6015B-1, 6015B-4, 6015B-5, 6015B-6, 6015B-7, and/or 6015B-8) that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session. In some embodiments, while displaying the third shared content session object, the computer system receives an indication that a fifth event (e.g., a user joins the shared content session, a participant leaves the shared content session) has occurred in the shared content session that satisfies a third notification criterion (e.g., the event is a type of event for which a notification should be displayed unless other criteria are met), and in response to receiving the indication that the fifth event has occurred, outputs a fourth notification including information about the fifth event in accordance with a determination that the fifth event satisfies the event notification criterion (e.g., the fifth event is determined to have a priority that meets a priority threshold, and different events have different priorities with respect to outputting a notification of the event), and ceases outputting the fourth notification including information about the fifth event in accordance with a determination that the fifth event does not satisfy the action notification criterion. In some embodiments, the computer system ceases displaying the third shared content session object. In some embodiments, the computer system ceases displaying the third shared content session object (e.g., the third shared content session object is erased (e.g., automatically, without user input) after being displayed for the predetermined amount of time without user interaction) according to (e.g., in response to) a determination that the third shared content session object has been displayed for a predetermined amount of time (e.g., 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, 4 seconds, 5 seconds). In some embodiments, after ceasing to display the third shared content session object, the computer system outputs a fifth notification, the fifth notification including information regarding events that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object. Outputting the fifth notification after ceasing to display the third shared content session object provides feedback by displaying information regarding events that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that a first action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object has a higher notification priority than a second action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object, the fifth notification includes information about the first action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object and does not include information about the second action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object. In accordance with a determination that a second action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object has a higher notification priority than a first action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object, the fifth notification does not include information about the first action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object and includes information about the second action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object (e.g., after ceasing to display the third shared content session object, the computer system displays a notification having information corresponding to an action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object that has the highest priority for an action that occurred while displaying the third shared content session object).

In some embodiments, the first notification includes a link associated with an application on the computer system (e.g., a particular portion of the application, a playlist user interface, and/or a particular portion of content within the application), the link being provided by an external computer system (e.g., selection of the notification causes the computer system to output or navigate a portion of the application). In some embodiments, the computer system receives an input corresponding to selection of the link. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the input corresponding to selection of the link, the computer system displays the first portion of the application (e.g., navigates to the first portion of the application) in accordance with a determination that the link corresponds to a first portion of the application (e.g., a first displayed content of the application), and in accordance with a determination that the link corresponds to a second portion of the application (e.g., a second displayed content of the application) that is different from the first portion of the application, the computer system displays the second portion of the application (e.g., navigates to the second portion of the application). Displaying the first portion of the application in accordance with a determination that the link corresponds to the first portion of the application and displaying the second portion of the application in accordance with a determination that the link corresponds to the second portion of the application reduces input at the computer system by providing links that may be selected to navigate to different portions of the application without requiring additional user input to navigate to different portions of the application on the computer system. Improves operability of the computer system by reducing the computational workload, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while the shared content session includes screen share content (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6DC-6DE) (e.g., screens and/or application interfaces displayed by computer systems connected to the shared content session) (e.g., as determined by the computer system), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays, via one or more output generation components (e.g., 6001A), visual indications (e.g., 6568 or 6235) of participants in the shared content session who have added screen share content to the shared content session (e.g., are sharing screen share content). Automatically, quickly, and efficiently displaying visual indications of participants who have added screen share content to the shared content session provides contextually relevant information to the user, which provides improved visual feedback to the user. In some embodiments, the computer system displays visual indications of participants corresponding to the screen share content within a user interface (e.g., a user interface in a window, PiP, expanded (e.g., full screen) state) that displays the screen share content. In some embodiments, the visual indication of a participant who added screen share content is changed (e.g., updated and/or replaced) in response to a change in the participants who added screen share content to the shared content session (e.g., if a different participant adds different content to the shared content session). In some embodiments, in response to a participant removing screen share content from the shared content session, the computer system ceases to display (e.g., removes) the visual indication of the participant.

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 8) described above with respect to method 800 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 800. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

Figure 9 is a flow diagram showing a method for adding content to a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) in some embodiments. Method 900 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A, 6001B, 6007A, and/or 6007B) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensing display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, 6003A, 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 900 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 900 provides an intuitive way to add content to a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to add content to a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to add content to a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

A computer system (e.g., 6000B) receives an input (e.g., 6064, 6218, 6224, 6336, 6376, or 6444) (e.g., selection of a screen share affordance or selection of a playback affordance) corresponding to a request to add a first content (e.g., content displayed on the computer system) (e.g., screen share content) to a shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 6000B) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000A) (e.g., one or more external computer systems) via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) (902).

In response to receiving the input (904), in accordance with a determination (906) that the first content is a first type of content (e.g., 6060, 6088, or 6102) (e.g., content including personal information, content shared from the computer system, and/or screen sharing content) and prior to adding the first content to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) outputs an alert (e.g., 6066) (e.g., an audible alert and/or a display alert) that the first content is about to be added to the shared content session, the alert including an option (e.g., 6066) (e.g., an option selectable (e.g., by audio or touch input)) and/or a selectable graphical object (e.g., an affordance including a countdown) for canceling the adding of the first content to the shared content session before the first content is added to the shared content session. Outputting an alert that the first content is being added to the shared content session, including an option to cancel adding the first content to the shared content session, before the first content is added to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first content is being added to the shared content session, provides additional control to cancel adding the first content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

Pursuant to a determination (908) that the first content is a second type of content different from the first type (e.g., content that does not include personal information, content for synchronized output, and/or media content), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) adds the first content to the shared content session without outputting an alert that the first content will be added to the shared content session before the first content is added to the shared content session (e.g., FIG. 6AQ, FIG. 6BO, FIG. 6BY, or FIG. 6CL).

In some embodiments, the first type of content includes personal information (e.g., a user's screen, a user's email address, a message from the user, a photo of the user, and/or the user's name) and the second type of content does not include personal information. In some embodiments, the first content is determined to be the first type of content in accordance with a determination that the first content includes personal information. In some embodiments, the first content is determined to be the second type of content (e.g., not the first type of content) in accordance with a determination that the first content does not include personal information.

In some embodiments, the first type of content includes content (e.g., 6060, 6088, or 6102) shared from a computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) (e.g., the computer system shares (e.g., transmits) actual audio and/or image (e.g., video) data of the content and is not screen shared content), the second type of content includes content (e.g., 6138 or 6446) synchronized between a computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B or 6000A) (e.g., is not screen shared content), and the second type of content is not shared from a computer system (e.g., the computer system does not share (e.g., transmits) actual audio and/or image (e.g., video) data of the content and the computer system can share a representation of the content (not the actual content) and/or data to facilitate synchronized output between the computer system and the external computer system).

In some embodiments, the first type of content includes (e.g., is) a graphical representation (e.g., is) of content (e.g., is 6070) (e.g., is screen sharing content) displayed on a screen of a computer system (e.g., is 6000B), and the second type of content includes (e.g., is) media content (e.g., is 6138 or 6446) (optionally does not include a screen of the computer system and/or is provided by a content server different from the computer system).

In some embodiments, the alert that the first content is about to be added to the shared content session includes a countdown indicator (e.g., 6066) that progresses through multiple states to indicate the amount of time until the content is shared in the shared content session (e.g., a displayed numerical countdown (e.g., "5, 4, 3, 2, 1" or "3, 2, 1")). Outputting an alert with a countdown indicator that progresses through multiple states to indicate the amount of time until the content is shared in the shared content session provides a user of the computer system with feedback of the timing when the first content is being added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the input corresponding to the request to add the first content to the shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 6000B) and the external computer system (e.g., 6000A) includes a selection of a start sharing option (e.g., 6015A-8 or 6015B-8) (e.g., an affordance, an icon, a button). In some embodiments, outputting an alert that the first content is about to be added to the shared content session includes ceasing output of the start sharing option and displaying a countdown indicator (e.g., FIGS. 6N and 6O) (e.g., replacing the start sharing option with the countdown indicator, displaying the countdown indicator in the previous location of the start sharing option). Ceasing output of the share indication option and displaying the countdown indicator provides feedback to the user of the computer system as to when the first content is being added to the shared content session, provides additional control to cancel the addition of the first content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system adding the first content to the shared content session without outputting an alert that the first content will be added to the shared content session before the first content is added to the shared content session includes the computer system adding the first content (e.g., 6138 or 6446) to the shared content session without outputting a countdown indicator (e.g., without displaying 6066).

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) displays a selectable navigation option (e.g., 6272, 6314, or 6316) for navigating to the first content (e.g., before and/or while receiving an input corresponding to a request to add the first content to a shared content session between the computer system and an external computer system) (e.g., in response to detecting an input selecting an option for navigating to the first content, the computer system outputs the first content (e.g., displays the first content, opens the first content (or a window or application containing the first content), and/or brings the first content (or a window containing the first content) to the foreground)). Displaying a selectable navigation option for navigating to the first content provides additional control for viewing the content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a selectable leave option (e.g., 6015A-9) for leaving (e.g., quit, disconnect, and/or cease participating) the shared content session (e.g., before and/or while receiving an input corresponding to a request to add a first piece of content to the shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system) (e.g., in response to detecting an input selecting a leave option for leaving the shared content session, the computer system leaves the shared content session). Displaying a selectable option for ending the shared content session provides additional control for ending the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves the usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) initiates a connection (e.g., joins or starts) to a shared content session, where initiating the connection to the shared content session includes opening (e.g., automatically, without further input) an audio channel that adds audio detected by one or more input devices (e.g., 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) (e.g., microphones) to the shared content session between the computer system and an external computer system (e.g., 6015A-6 are highlighted in FIG. 6C) (e.g., the computer system opens an audio channel by default when the computer system connects (e.g., starts and/or joins) to the shared content session). Opening an audio channel that adds audio detected by one or more input devices to the shared content session when initiating the connection to the shared content session reduces the number of inputs at the computer system by reducing the number of inputs for opening the audio channel. Reducing the number of inputs in a computer system improves the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays selectable sharing options (e.g., 6015A-8, 6015B-8, 6180A-1, or 6180B-1) (e.g., icons, buttons, and/or affordances that, when selected, initiate a process for adding content to the shared content session) for adding content to the shared content session while the computer system (e.g., 6000B) is connected to a real-time communication session (e.g., 6170A or 6170B) (e.g., a call, a video communication session). Displaying selectable sharing options for adding content to the shared content session while the computer system is connected to the real-time communication session provides additional control for adding content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in response to detecting selection of a share option, the computer system adds content to the shared content session (e.g., automatically without further user input) and/or displays an interface providing content options to add to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000B) is sharing (e.g., screen sharing) a first type of content (e.g., 6060, 6088, or 6102) with the shared content session (and, optionally, pursuant to a determination that the shared content session object (e.g., 6015) is not displayed (e.g., minimized or hidden)), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays (e.g., in a corner of the display, in the upper left corner of the display) a first shared content session indicator (e.g., 6021B) (e.g., a persistent indicator) indicating that the computer system (e.g., 6000B) is sharing the first type of content with the shared content session. Displaying the first shared content session indicator provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the computer system is sharing the first type of content with the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system can selectively display and/or hide (e.g., minimize, stop displaying, run in the background) a shared content session object that includes information associated with the shared content session and/or selectable options for managing and/or performing functions associated with the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the first shared content session indicator (e.g., 6021B) is output at the first location. In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000B) is connected to the shared content session and is not sharing the first type of content with the shared content session (and, optionally, pursuant to a determination that the shared content session object is not displayed (e.g., minimized or hidden)), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays at the first location a second shared content session indicator (e.g., 6020A or 6020B) (e.g., a persistent indicator) that is different from the first shared content session indicator (e.g., the second shared content session indicator has a different appearance, color, shape, and/or icon than the first shared content session indicator) indicating that the computer system (e.g., 6000B) is connected to the shared content session (e.g., is not sharing the first type of content). Displaying the second shared content session indicator at the first location pursuant to determining that the computer system is connected to the shared content session and is not sharing the first type of content with the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the computer system is connected to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first shared content session indicator (e.g., 6021B) has a first appearance (e.g., color, icon, shape, and/or text) and the second shared content session indicator (e.g., 6020A or 6020B) has a second appearance that is different from the first appearance. Displaying the first shared content session indicator having the first appearance and the second shared content indicator having the second appearance that is different from the first appearance provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the type of content being shared in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first appearance of the first shared content session indicator (e.g., 6021B) includes a first color (e.g., the first appearance is red, not including the second color (e.g., blue or yellow)) and the second appearance of the second shared content session indicator (e.g., 6020A or 6020B) includes a second color different from the first color (e.g., the second appearance is blue or yellow, not including the first color). Displaying the first shared content session indicator having the first color and the second shared content indicator having the second color different from the first color provides feedback to a user of the computer system about the type of content being shared in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects an input (e.g., 6032 or 6062) corresponding to a selection of the first shared content session indicator. In response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the first shared content session indicator, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) may select information (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3) associated with the shared content session (e.g., participant name, group name, number of participants, participant status, and/or content within the shared content session) and/or one or more selectable shared content session feature options (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-4, 6015B-4, 6015A-5, 6015B-5, 6015A-6, 6015B-6, 6015A-7, 6015B-7, 6015A-8, 6015B-8, 6015A-9, and and/or 6015B-9) that, when selected, causes the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to perform a separate function associated with the shared content session (e.g., add content (e.g., audio/video content and/or screen sharing content) to the shared content session, turn on/off the audio (e.g., microphone), turn on/off the video (e.g., camera), initiate a messaging conversation with a user associated with the shared content session, and/or initiate a real-time (e.g., audio and/or video) communication session with a user associated with the shared content session). Displaying a shared content session object including information associated with the shared content session, and/or one or more selectable shared content session function options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a separate function associated with the shared content session in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the first shared content session indicator, provides additional controls for performing separate functions associated with the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) that includes information associated with the shared content session (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3), and/or one or more selectable shared content session function options (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-4, 6015B-4, 6015A-5, 6015B-5, 6015A-6, 6015B-6, 6015A-7, 6015B-7, 6015A-8, 6015B-8, 6015A-9, and/or 6015B-9) that, when selected, cause the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to perform a particular function associated with the shared content session. While outputting the shared content session object, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects an input (e.g., 6014, 6078, 6188, or 6268) (e.g., pressing a home button, a swipe up gesture (e.g., from a location at the bottom of the display), a request to display a home interface) corresponding to a request to output a user interface (e.g., 6018 or 6088) (e.g., a home screen, a user interface (e.g., user interface 400) including user interface objects corresponding to respective applications, whereby when a user interface object corresponding to an individual application is activated, the computer system displays the individual application corresponding to the activated user interface object) provided by the operating system of the computer system (e.g., 6000B). In response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to output a user interface provided by the operating system of the computer system (e.g., 6000B), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) ceases outputting (e.g., minimizing, hiding) the shared content session object (e.g., outputting a user interface provided by the operating system of the computer system, and optionally displaying the first or second shared content session indicator).

In some embodiments (e.g., while the computer system is connected to the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) that includes information (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3) associated with the shared content session (e.g., one or more selectable shared content session functionality options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective functionality associated with the shared content session). In some embodiments, the information associated with the shared content session includes a content indicator (e.g., 6015A-1 or 6015B-1 of FIGS. 6P, 6Q, 6AS, and 6AW) (e.g., a graphical indicator) based on the content in the shared content session (e.g., the content being shared by the computer system and/or the content being shared by an external computer system connected to the shared content session). Displaying the shared content session object that includes the information associated with the shared content session causes the information associated with the shared content session to include a content indicator based on the content in the shared content session to provide feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the content being shared in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in response to a determination that a first content is being shared in the shared content session, the shared content session object includes a first content indicator (e.g., having a first appearance). In response to a determination that a second content different from the first content is being shared in the shared content session, the shared content session object includes a second content indicator different from the first content indicator (or the first content indicator having a second appearance different from the first appearance).

In some embodiments (e.g., while the computer system is connected to the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) that includes information (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3) associated with the shared content session (e.g., one or more selectable shared content session functionality options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective functionality associated with the shared content session), where the information associated with the shared content session includes participant indicators (e.g., 6015A-1 or 6015B-1 of FIGS. 6P and 6Q) (e.g., graphical indications) based on participants who have added (e.g., are sharing) content to the shared content session (e.g., the participant indicators include the names of the participants, one or more initials of the participants, and/or avatar representations of the participants). Displaying a shared content session object including information associated with the shared content session, where the information associated with the shared content session includes a participant indicator based on the participants who added content in the shared content session, provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding who is adding content to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that a first participant is sharing content in the shared content session, the shared content session object includes a first participant indicator (e.g., having a first appearance indicative of the first participant), and in accordance with a determination that a second participant different from the first participant is sharing content in the shared content session, the shared content session object includes a second participant indicator (e.g., indicative of the second participant) different from the first participant indicator (or the first participant indicator having a second appearance different from the first appearance).

In some embodiments (e.g., while the computer system is connected to the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) including information (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3) associated with the shared content session (e.g., one or more selectable shared content session function options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session, and, optionally, the shared content session includes an application indicator (e.g., 6212) (e.g., a graphical indication) based on the application associated with the content in the shared content session (e.g., the application indicator includes an icon of the application sharing the content in the shared content session). Displaying a shared content session object including information associated with the shared content session, the information associated with the shared content session including an application indicator based on the application associated with the content in the shared content session, provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the application used to share the content in the shared content session. By providing improved feedback, it improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, icons of the applications in the application indicator are overlaid on a representation (e.g., avatars) of a group of users associated with the shared content session. In some embodiments, in response to a determination that a first application is associated with content in the shared content session, the shared content session object includes a first application indicator (e.g., having a first appearance indicative of the first application). In response to a determination that a second application different from the first application is associated with content in the shared content session, the shared content session object includes a second application indicator (e.g., indicative of the second application) different from the first application indicator (or the first application indicator having a second appearance different from the first appearance).

In some embodiments (e.g., while the computer system is connected to the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) may provide one or more selectable shared content session function options (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015C-2, 6015D-3, 6015E-4, 6015F-5, 6015G-6, 6015H-7, 6015I-8, 6015I-9, 6015I-10, 6015I-11, 6015I-12, 6015I-13, 6015I-14, 6015I-15, 6015I-16, 6015I-17, 6015I-18, 6015I-19, 6015I-20, 6015I-21, 6015I-22, 6015I-23, 6015I-24, 6015I-25, 6015I-26, 6015I-27, 6015I-28, 6015I-29, 6015I-30, 6015I-31, 6015I-32, 6015I-33, 6015I-34, 6015I-35, 6015I-36, 6015I-37, 6015I-38, 6015I-39, 6015I-40, 6015I-41, 6015I-42, 6015I-43, 6015I-44, 6015I-45, 6015I In one embodiment, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) including a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A-4, 6015B-4, 6015A-5, 6015B-5, 6015A-6, 6015B-6, 6015A-7, 6015B-7, 6015A-8, 6015B-8, 6015A-9, and/or 6015B-9) and the one or more shared content session functionality options includes a first shared content session functionality option (e.g., 6015A-1 or 6015B-1). The computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects an input (e.g., 6036) corresponding to a selection of the first shared content session functionality option. In response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the first shared content session functionality option, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a user status interface (e.g., 6038A, 6040A, and/or 6042A) (e.g., or user interface object, group card) including a status (e.g., 6046) (e.g., active, inactive, participating, not participating, sharing, and/or not sharing) related to the shared content session for one or more users associated with the shared content session. Displaying the user status interface including the status of one or more users associated with the shared content session related to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system about the status of one or more users associated with the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a user interface (e.g., 6004A or 6004B) of a messaging application. In some embodiments, the user interface of the messaging application includes a plurality of messages (e.g., 6004A-1 or 6004B-1) between users associated with a shared content session (e.g., in a conversation area (e.g., 6004A-3 or 6004B-3) of the messaging application user interface). In accordance with a determination that a shared content session is available (e.g., the shared content session is active and a shared content session can be initiated), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a visual indication (e.g., 6010A, 6010B, or 6024) (e.g., a message that a shared content session is available) in a user interface of a messaging application (e.g., in a conversation area of the user interface of the messaging application) including information associated with the shared content session (e.g., a representation (e.g., name, initials, and/or avatar) of the user who initiated the shared content session, the number of participants in the shared content session, representations of the participants in the shared content session, and/or the content of the shared content session). Displaying a visual indication in a user interface of a messaging application including information associated with the shared content session in accordance with a determination that a shared content session is available provides a user of the computer system with feedback of information associated with the shared content session, provides additional control for joining the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental inputs improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the visual indication includes a selectable option (e.g., a link, an affordance, and/or a button) that, when selected, causes the computer system to activate and/or join a shared content session.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays (e.g., within a shared content session object) selectable camera options (e.g., 6015A-7, 6015B-7, 14015A-7, or 14045B-7). The computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects an input corresponding to a selection of the selectable camera option. In response to detecting the input corresponding to a selection of the selectable camera option, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays one or more selectable camera setting options (e.g., 14068) that, when selected, causes the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to operate the camera in accordance with the selected camera setting option (e.g., causes the computer system to output a visual representation of the field of view of the one or more cameras). Displaying one or more selectable camera setting options in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the selectable camera option provides the computer system with additional control to operate the camera in accordance with the selected camera setting option without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental inputs without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the camera setting options include one or more of "camera on", "camera off", and/or one or more options for selecting a particular camera (e.g., front facing camera, rear facing camera). In some embodiments, one or more of the camera setting options can be selected to output a visual representation of the field of view of a particular camera (e.g., front facing camera, and/or rear facing camera). In some embodiments, one or more of the camera setting options can be selected to apply visual effects to the representation of the field of view of one or more cameras and/or to enable/disable settings for adjusting the field of view of one or more cameras.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B, 14000) displays (e.g., in a shared content session object) a selectable microphone option (e.g., 6015A-6 or 6015B-6, 14045A-6 or 14045B-6 displayed by device 14000A or 14000B). The computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects an input (e.g., 14046) corresponding to a selection of the selectable microphone option. In response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the selectable microphone option, the computer system displays one or more selectable microphone setting options (e.g., 14064) that, when selected, causes the computer system to operate the microphone in accordance with the microphone setting option (e.g., output audio corresponding to audio recorded by the one or more microphones) (e.g., enable or disable the microphone). Displaying one or more selectable microphone setting options in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of a selectable microphone option provides the computer system with additional control for operating the microphone in accordance with the selected microphone setting option without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a user interface (e.g., 6004A, 6004B, 6170A, or 6170B) of a communications application (e.g., a messaging application, an audio and/or video communications application) that provides a protocol for communicating with an external computer system (e.g., 6000A). While displaying the user interface of the communications application (e.g., during an ongoing real-time (e.g., audio and/or video) communications session in which one or more participants are selected in the messaging application user interface including multiple messages between participants of the messaging conversation), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects an input (e.g., 6008 or 6186) corresponding to a request to initiate a new shared content session. In some embodiments, the input corresponding to the request to initiate a new shared content session includes a selection of a shared content session option (e.g., 6006-3, 6180A-1, or 6081B-1) (e.g., an icon, an affordance, and/or a button) provided by the communications application (e.g., displayed within the communications application). In response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to start a new shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) starts a new shared content session (e.g., FIG. 6C or 6AI) (e.g., creates a new shared content session, activates the new shared content session, and/or generates a link for the new shared content session). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to start a new shared content session, the computer system displays an interface for selecting one or more users (or a predefined group of users) to invite to join the new shared content session. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to start a new shared content session, the computer system automatically (e.g., without further user input) starts a new shared content session associated with a user associated with a displayed user interface of a communication application. For example, if a user is within the interface of an ongoing communication session (e.g., a message conversation or real-time communication session) involving the user and one or more other users, selecting a shared content session option starts a new shared content session for the user and one or more other users of the communication session.

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 9) described above with respect to method 900 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 800, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 900. For example, microphone and/or camera control is also shown in FIGS. 14A-14AG, which are described in more detail below with respect to methods 1500 and 1600. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

FIG. 10 is a flow diagram illustrating a method of providing a user interface in a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000A), according to some embodiments. Method 1000 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 6000A) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A and/or 6007A) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, and/or 6003A) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1000 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1000 provides an intuitive way to present user interface objects in a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to access a user interface in a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to access a user interface in a shared content session is faster and more efficient, conserving power and increasing the time between battery charges.

A computer system (e.g., 6000A) receives (1002) via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, and/or 6003A) an input (e.g., 6126, 6136, 6190, 6194, or 6216) (e.g., selection of an application icon) corresponding to a request (e.g., a request to open/launch an application (e.g., on one or more external computer systems)) to display a first user interface (e.g., 6198, 6130, or 6140) of a first application (e.g., an application corresponding to 6128 or 6192).

In response to receiving the input (1004), following a determination that the first set of criteria is met, the first set of criteria is met when a shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 6000A) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., one or more external computer systems) is active, and the first application can play content that can be added to the shared content session (e.g., FIG. 6AM) (in some embodiments, the content can be added to the shared content session because the content is separately available to the computer system and the external computer system (e.g., via a subscription service). In some embodiments, the first application can For example, in some embodiments, content stored locally on a computer system can be played by a first application, but the locally stored content is not accessible to an external computer system, and therefore a shared content session in which a computer system (e.g., 6000A) is not able to provide individual content to an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., a computer system associated with (e.g., operated by) a remote user (e.g., a user in a shared content session with a user of the computer system)) when the shared content session is active. and a computer system (e.g., 6000A), via one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A), outputs an indication (e.g., 6210, 6132, or 6144 (or the appearance of 6144)) (e.g., text, graphical indication, notification, and/or audible alert) that the first application can play the content that can be added to the shared content session, and a first user interface (e.g., 6198, 6130 (as shown in FIG. 6AM ) for the first application. In accordance with a determination that the first set of criteria is not met (e.g., the shared content session is not active and/or the first application is not able to play content that may be added to the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs (1008) a first user interface (e.g., 6130 (as shown in FIG. 6Z), or 6140 (as shown in FIG. 6AA), or 6198) for the first application (e.g., synchronized content and/or screen sharing content) without outputting an indication that the first application is able to play content that may be added to the shared content session. In accordance with a determination that the first set of criteria is met or not, outputting a first user interface for the first application with or without an indication that the first application is able to play content that may be added to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system of whether the first application is able to play content that may be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the indication that the first application is capable of playing content that can be added to the shared content session includes a graphical object (e.g., 6132, 6210) (e.g., a notification, a banner) that is overlaid on a user interface of the first application (e.g., that is not output when the first set of criteria is not met) (e.g., is not output when the first set of criteria is not met) (e.g., is not part of the user interface of the first application). Outputting an indication that the first application is capable of playing content that can be added to the shared content session, including a graphical object overlaid on a user interface for the first application, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first application is capable of playing content that can be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the indication that the first application is capable of playing content that may be added to the shared content session includes the appearance of a selectable playback option (e.g., the appearance of 6144 as shown in FIG. 6AN) that, when selected, initiates playback of media associated with the playback option (e.g., an icon, an affordance, a button, and/or a play button, an option in a user interface for the application, and/or a selectable object in a notification or banner displayed by the computer system (e.g., a notification or banner associated with the application to facilitate the shared content session, a notification or banner generated by the operating system of the computer system). Outputting an indication that the first application is capable of playing content that may be added to the shared content session, including the appearance of a selectable playback option that, when selected, initiates playback of media associated with the playback option, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first application is capable of playing content that may be added to the shared content session and that playing the content adds the content to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the first set of criteria is met, the play option is output in a first appearance, and pursuant to a determination that the first set of criteria is not met, the play option is output in a second appearance that is different from the first appearance. In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the first set of criteria is met, the play option includes text describing that the first application can play content that may be added to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, an indication that the first application is capable of playing content that may be added to the shared content session is included (e.g., embedded) in a user interface for the first application (e.g., 6132). Outputting the indication that the first application is capable of playing content that may be added to the shared content session included in the user interface for the first application provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first application is capable of playing content that may be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a description (e.g., 6142 and/or 6146) (e.g., text, symbols, and/or badges) of the first media (e.g., one or more media items, videos, songs, movies, and/or program episodes) that can be played by the first application that can be added to the shared content session contemporaneously with the indication that the first application can play content that can be added to the shared content session. Displaying a description of the first media that can be played by the application that can be added to the shared content session contemporaneously with the indication that the first application can play content that can be added to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first media can be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000A) (e.g., and an external computer system) are outputting (e.g., simultaneously outputting) a second media in a shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) receives (e.g., detects) an indication that a request (e.g., 6246, 6258, 6278, 6284, 6336, 6362, 6364, or 6444) to change the output of the second media has occurred (e.g., a user of the external computer system has made a request to pause, play, fast forward, and/or rewind the media, or has made a request to output a different (e.g., next, previous) media). In some embodiments, the computer system receives an indication that a request to change the output of the first media has occurred by receiving an instruction or command to change the output of the first media. In response to detecting that a request to modify the output of the second media has occurred, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs an output change notification (e.g., 6248, 6250, 6260, 6262, 6270, 6272, 6280, 6282, 6286, 6288, 6290, 6292, 6344, 6368, 6370, 6450, or 6452) of the request to modify the output of the second media (e.g., a notification having an appearance (e.g., text) based on the request to modify the output of the second media and/or a notification indicating an action (e.g., fast forward, rewind) associated with the request). In response to detecting that a request to modify the output of the second media has occurred, outputting an output change notification of the request to modify the output of the second media provides feedback to a user of the computer system that a request to modify the output of the second media has been received at the computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the request to change the output of the second media (e.g., 6258, 6264, or 6284) is made by a participant in the shared content session that selected the second media to be output during the shared content session (or a participant that added the second media to the shared content session).

In some embodiments, the request to change the output of the second media (e.g., 6246 or 6334) is made by a participant of the shared content session other than the participant of the shared content session that selected the second media to be output during the shared content session (or the participant that added the second media to the shared content session).

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) receives an indication (e.g., via input 6432) that media has been added to a queue (e.g., 6442) of media (e.g., a song list, playlist, movies, episodes, and/or a queue of songs) to be added to the shared content session (e.g., to be sequentially added to the shared content session). In response to receiving the indication that media has been added to the queue of media to be added to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs a media added notification (e.g., 6440 or 6436) that media has been added to the queue of media to be added to the shared content session (e.g., displaying a notification and/or outputting an audible notification). In response to receiving the indication that media has been added to the queue of media, outputting a media added notification that media has been added to the queue of media to be added to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that media has been added to the queue of media to be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) receives an indication that an action has been taken with respect to media in the shared content session (e.g., via inputs 6246, 6258, 6278, 6284, 6336, 6362, 6364, and/or 6444) (e.g., a request to change the media output (e.g., playback) and/or a request to change the media queue). In response to receiving the indication that an action has been taken with respect to media in the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a media action notification (e.g., based on the action) (e.g., 6248, 6250, 6260, 6262, 6270, 6272, 6280, 6282, 6286, 6288, 6290, 6292, 6344, 6368, 6370, 6450, or 6452). In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6274 or 6438) corresponding to a selection of a media action notification. In response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the media action notification, in accordance with a determination that the media action notification is a notification of a first type (e.g., 6272) (e.g., a notification of a request to change the playback of media), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) initiates a first action (e.g., displaying content as shown in 6000B of FIG. 6BB) (e.g., displaying and optionally foregrounding an application that is playing media in the shared content session). In accordance with a determination that the media action notification is a notification of a second type (e.g., 6436) different from the first type (e.g., a notification of a request to change a queue of media to be added to the shared content session (e.g., adding media or removing media), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) initiates a second action (e.g., display 6434B) different from the first action (e.g., displaying the queue of media). Initiating the first or second action in accordance with a determination that the media action notification is a first or second type of notification provides additional control for initiating the first or second action without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that a user interface for an application corresponding to the media in the shared content session (e.g., an application for displaying or outputting) is not currently displayed, a user interface for an application corresponding to the media in the shared content session is displayed in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the media action notification.

In some embodiments, the first type of notification corresponds to a notification (e.g., 6272) of a request to change the output (e.g., playback) of media in the shared content session (e.g., the action taken with respect to the media in the shared content session that triggered the notification was a request to change the output of the media in the shared content session), and the first action includes outputting the media in the shared content session (e.g., displaying the content as shown in 6000B of FIG. 6BB).

In some embodiments, the second type of notification corresponds to a notification of a request to change the queue of media to be added to the shared content session (e.g., 6436) (e.g., the action taken with respect to the media in the shared content session that triggered the notification was a request to change the queue of media to be added to the shared content session), and the second action includes displaying the queue of media to be added to the shared content session (e.g., 6434B).

In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input (e.g., 6252) corresponding to a selection of a media action notification (e.g., 6248), in accordance with a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is displaying media in a shared content session in a full screen mode (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6AV at 6000A) (e.g., an extended display mode and/or a mode in which content occupies the entire display screen or is displayed on the entire display screen except for one or more predefined areas of the display screen that display system controls, such as a status bar or dock), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) may display information associated with the shared content session (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3) and/or a control associated with the selected media action notification (e.g., 6015A-2, 6015B-3, and/or 6015A-4) in response to a selection of a media action notification (e.g., 6248), in accordance with a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is displaying media in a shared content session in a full screen mode (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6AV at 6000A) (e.g., an extended display mode and/or a mode in which content occupies the entire display screen or is displayed on the entire display screen except for one or more predefined areas of the display screen that display system controls, such as a status bar or dock). 6AW )と、对在图6AW中的介质上显著的 ... Displaying a shared content session object overlaid on the media in the shared content session pursuant to determining that the computer system is displaying the media in the shared content session in full screen mode provides additional controls for controlling one or more aspects of the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting a user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing a user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input (e.g., 6266) corresponding to a selection of a media action notification (e.g., 6262), in accordance with a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is not outputting media for the shared content session in a full screen mode (e.g., as shown in 6000B of FIG. 6AX) (e.g., the computer system is outputting media for the shared content session in a picture-in-picture mode and/or the computer system is not outputting media for the shared content session in an extended mode), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) moves (e.g., shifts or translates) the display of the media in the shared content session (e.g., as shown in 6000B of FIG. 6AY) (e.g., to reveal a user interactive object including one or more selectable options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session). Moving the display of the media in the shared content session pursuant to determining that the computer system is not outputting the media of the shared content session in full screen mode provides additional controls for controlling one or more aspects of the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6218 or 6224) corresponding to a request to play a first content of a first application that may be added to the shared content session (e.g., selecting a play button, selecting a content item). In response to detecting the input corresponding to a request to play a first content of a first application that may be added to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) plays the first content in the first application and adds the first content to the shared content session without sharing the screen of the computer system (e.g., 6000A) in the shared content session (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6AQ).

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6224 or 6298) corresponding to a request to play the second content of the first application. In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to play the second content of the first application, in accordance with a determination that the second content of the first application can be added to the shared content session, plays the second content in the first application and adds the second content of the first application to the shared content session (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6AQ). In accordance with a determination that the second content of the first application cannot be added to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) plays the second content in the first application and refrains from adding the second content of the first application to the shared content session (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6BG at 6000A).

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) initiates a connection (e.g., joining and/or starting) to a shared content session (e.g., via inputs 6008 or 6026) including opening (e.g., automatically, without further input) an audio channel (e.g., represented by highlighted 6015A-6 and/or 6015B-6) that adds audio detected by one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, and/or 6003A) (e.g., microphones) to the shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 6000A) and an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., the computer system opens an audio channel by default when the computer system connects (e.g., starts and/or joins) to a shared content session). Opening an audio channel that adds audio detected by one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, and/or 6003A) to the shared content session when initiating a connection to the shared content session reduces the number of inputs at the computer system by reducing the number of inputs for opening an audio channel. Reducing the number of inputs in a computer system improves the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a user interface (e.g., 6004A, 6004B, 6170A, or 6170B) of a communications application that provides a protocol for communicating with an external computer system (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., a messaging application, a video communications application). While displaying the user interface of the communications application (e.g., during an ongoing real-time (e.g., audio and/or video) communications session in a messaging application user interface that includes multiple messages between participants of a messaging conversation in which one or more participants are selected), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6008 or 6186) corresponding to a request to initiate a new shared content session. In some embodiments, the input corresponding to the request to initiate a new shared content session includes a selection of a shared content session option (e.g., 6006-3, 6180A-1, or 6081B-1) (e.g., an icon, an affordance, and/or a button) provided by the communications application (e.g., displayed within the communications application). In response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to start a new shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) starts a new shared content session (e.g., FIG. 6C or FIG. 6AI) (e.g., creates a new shared content session, activates the new shared content session, and/or generates a link for the new shared content session). In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to start a new shared content session, the computer system displays an interface for selecting one or more users (or a predefined group of users) to invite to join the new shared content session. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to start a new shared content session, the computer system automatically (e.g., without further user input) starts a new shared content session associated with a user associated with a displayed user interface of a communication application. For example, if a user is within the interface of an ongoing communication session (e.g., a message conversation or real-time communication session) including the user and one or more other users, selecting a shared content session option starts a new shared content session for the user and one or more other users of the communication session.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving an input (e.g., 6190 or 6216) corresponding to a request to display a first user interface of a first application, and in accordance with a determination that a first set of criteria is met, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) simultaneously displays a glyph (e.g., 6132) and a representation (e.g., 6214 or 6142) of content (e.g., media) that may be reproduced by the first application and added to the shared content session. In response to receiving an input corresponding to a request to display a first interface of a first application, and in accordance with a determination that a first set of criteria is met, simultaneously displaying a glyph and a representation of content that may be reproduced by the first application and added to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that content may be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, a glyph is displayed on or near a representation of the individual content (e.g., to indicate that the individual content may be added to a shared content session). In some embodiments, a glyph is displayed for content that can be added to a shared content session but that the user is not currently eligible to play (e.g., because the user has not rented, purchased, or subscribed to the service that provides the content).

In some embodiments, while outputting the first user interface of the first application, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6204) corresponding to a request to play the third content. In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to play the third content, in accordance with a determination that the third content is not available for addition to the shared content session (and optionally in accordance with a determination that the computer system is connected to the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs (e.g., displays) a notification (e.g., 6206) (e.g., an error notification, a banner, a pop-up notification, an audible notification, and/or a tactile notification) indicating that the third content is not available for addition to the shared content session (and, e.g., optionally outputs a separate content). In accordance with a determination that the third content is not available for addition to the shared content session, outputting a notification indicating that the third content is not available for addition to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the third content is not available for addition to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to play the third content and following a determination that the computer system is not connected to the shared content session, the third content is output (e.g., displayed, played) without outputting a notification indicating that the third content is not available to be added to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000A) (or a user of the computer system) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B) associated with the shared content session (or users (e.g., participants in the shared content system) associated with the shared content session) are eligible (e.g., have access to, purchased, rented, and/or have access to a subscription that provides access) to the fourth content (e.g., in the first application), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays (e.g., in a first user interface of the first application) a recommended content indicator (e.g., 6132) (e.g., visually associated with a representation of the fourth content) indicating that the computer system (e.g., 6000A) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B) associated with the shared content session are eligible for the fourth content.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a request (e.g., 6218) to output the fifth content (e.g., in a first application). In response to detecting the request to output (e.g., display, play) the fifth content, in accordance with a determination that the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is connected to an active shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs a set (e.g., a prompt) of selectable playback options (e.g., 6000A) including a first selectable playback option (e.g., 6220-2) that, when selected, plays the fifth content on the computer system (e.g., 6220) without adding the fifth content to the shared content session, and a second selectable playback option (e.g., 6220-1) that, when selected, plays the fifth content on the computer system (e.g., 6000A) and adds the fifth content to the shared content session. Outputting a set of selectable playback options, including a first selectable playback option and a second selectable playback option, provides additional control for playing content on the computer system with or without adding the content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in response to a request to output the fifth content and in accordance with a determination that the computer system is not connected to an active shared content session, the computer system ceases outputting the set of selectable playback options.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a first option selection input (e.g., 6222 or 6224) corresponding to a selection of one of the first selectable playback option (e.g., 6220-2) and the second selectable playback option (e.g., 6220-1). In response to detecting the first option selection input, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) plays the fifth content (e.g., with or without adding the fifth content to the shared content session based on whether the first selectable playback option or the second selectable playback option was selected). After playing the fifth content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a request to output the sixth content (e.g., after detecting the first option selection input). In response to detecting a request to output (e.g., display, play) the sixth content, in accordance with a determination that a first set of playback criteria is satisfied, the computer system plays the sixth content on the computer system (e.g., 6000A) without adding the sixth content to the shared content session, and in accordance with a determination that a second set of playback criteria is satisfied, the computer system plays the sixth content on the computer system (e.g., 6000A) without adding the sixth content to the shared content session, in accordance with a determination that a second set of playback criteria is satisfied, the computer system plays the sixth content on the computer system (e.g., 6000A) without adding the sixth content to the shared content session, in accordance with a determination that the first or second set of playback criteria is satisfied, the computer system adds the sixth content to the shared content session. Playing the sixth content on the computer system with or without adding the sixth content to the shared content session in accordance with a determination of whether the first or second set of playback criteria is satisfied reduces the number of inputs at the computer system by eliminating the need to solicit additional input from a user regarding whether to add the sixth content to the shared content session. Reducing the number of inputs in the computer system improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system remembers or stores the playback option selected by the first option selection input and applies it to subsequent requests to output content (e.g., the response to a request to output the sixth content is based on the playback option previously selected for the fifth content).

In some embodiments, the first set of playback criteria includes criteria that are met if the request to output the sixth content corresponds to a request to output the sixth content in the first application (e.g., represented by 6128), and the second set of playback criteria includes criteria that are met if the request to output the sixth content corresponds to a request to output the sixth content in the first application (e.g., represented by 6128). In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the request to output the sixth content corresponds to a request to output the sixth content in a second application different from the first application, the computer system outputs (e.g., displays) a prompt (e.g., a set of selectable playback options including a first selectable playback option for playing the sixth content on the computer system without adding the sixth content to the shared content session and a second selectable playback option for playing the sixth content on the computer system and adding the sixth content to the shared content session). In some embodiments, the computer system remembers or stores the playback options selected in a particular application and applies them to subsequent requests to output content in the same application, but not to requests to play content in other applications (e.g., the response to a request to output a sixth piece of content is based on the playback options previously selected for the fifth piece of content, if the sixth piece of content is requested to be played in the same application as the fifth piece of content).

In some embodiments, the first set of playback criteria includes criteria that are met if the request to output the sixth content occurs in the same shared content session as the request to output the fifth content (e.g., a shared content session that has not been disconnected simultaneously for all participants (e.g., computer systems) of the shared content session, a shared content session that has maintained at least one connected participant since it was started, and/or a shared content session that has not ended for all participants), and the second set of playback criteria includes criteria that are met if the request to output the sixth content occurs in the same shared content session as the request to output the fifth content. In some embodiments, the shared content session lasts until all participants of the shared content session simultaneously disconnect from the shared content session (e.g., the shared content session ends when there are no participants). In some embodiments, participants of the shared content session can leave and rejoin the same shared content session (e.g., as long as the shared content session maintains at least one participant in the session). In some embodiments, a shared content session is considered a new session when a shared content session is started for a group of potential participants and a previously started shared content session is not in progress for the same group of potential participants. In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the request to output the sixth content does not occur in the same shared content session as the request to output the fifth content, the computer system outputs (e.g., displays) a prompt (e.g., a set of selectable playback options including a first selectable playback option for playing the sixth content on the computer system without adding the sixth content to the shared content session and a second selectable playback option for playing the sixth content on the computer system and adding the sixth content to the shared content session). In some embodiments, the computer system stores or remembers the playback options selected in a particular shared content session and applies them to subsequent requests to output content in the same shared content session, but not to requests to play content in other shared content sessions (e.g., a response to a request to output the sixth content is based on the playback options previously selected for the fifth content when the sixth content is requested to be played in the same shared content session as the fifth content).

In some embodiments, the request to output the sixth content corresponds to a request to output the sixth content in a second application (e.g., a single application, multiple applications, or all applications) different from the first application (e.g., the options selected to play the fifth content in the first application are applied to requests to play the content in other applications (e.g., one or more applications, all applications)). The first set of playback criteria and the second set of playback criteria are independent of the application in which the sixth content is requested to be played). In some embodiments, the computer system stores or remembers the playback options selected in the particular application and applies them to subsequent requests to output the content for all applications (e.g., the response to the request to output the sixth content is based on the playback options previously selected for the fifth content, regardless of the application associated with the sixth content).

In some embodiments, the request to output the sixth content occurs in a different shared content session than the request to output the fifth content (e.g., the option selected in the first application to play the fifth content applies to the request to play the content in the other shared content session, and the first and second sets of playback criteria are independent of the shared content session in which the sixth content is requested to be added or played). In some embodiments, the computer system stores or remembers the playback options selected in a particular shared content session and applies them to subsequent requests to output content for all shared content sessions (e.g., the response to the request to output the sixth content is based on the playback options previously selected for the fifth content, regardless of the shared content session in which the request to output the sixth content occurred). In some embodiments, after detecting the first option selection input, the computer system detects a request to launch a third application (e.g., the first application, an application different from the first application). In response to detecting a request to launch the third application, launch the third application and display (e.g., in the third application) a playback setting indicator (e.g., a notification) indicating that the playback option selected by the first option selection input will be applied in response to the request to output content in the third application. Launching the third application and displaying the playback setting indicator provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the playback option selected by the first option selection input will be applied in response to the request to output content in the third application. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a second option selection input corresponding to a selection of an option (e.g., the first selectable playback option, the "play for me" option, and/or a "cancel" option) of the set of selectable playback options (e.g., 6220). After detecting the second option selection input, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a request to output the seventh content (e.g., after detecting the second option selection input). In response to detecting the request to output (e.g., display, play) the seventh content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs the set of selectable playback options (e.g., 6220) in accordance with a determination that the second option selection input corresponds to a selection of an option (e.g., 6220-2) not to add the fifth content to the shared content session. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to output the seventh content and in accordance with a determination that the second option selection input corresponds to an option to add the fifth content to the shared content session, the computer system refrains from outputting the set of selectable playback options (e.g., the computer system adds the seventh content to the shared content session without displaying the set of selectable playback options).

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a third option selection input corresponding to a selection of an option in the set of selectable playback options (e.g., 6220). After detecting the third option selection input, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a request to output the eighth content (e.g., after detecting the third option selection input). In response to detecting the request to output (e.g., display, play) the eighth content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) ceases outputting the set of selectable playback options (e.g., 6220) in accordance with a determination that the third option selection input corresponds to an option (e.g., 6220-1) for adding the fifth content to the shared content session (e.g., the second selectable playback option). Ceasing to output the set of selectable playback options in accordance with a determination that the third option selection input corresponds to an option for adding the fifth content to the shared content session reduces the number of inputs in the computer system by eliminating the need to solicit input from a user to select a set of selectable playback options. Reducing the number of inputs in the computer system improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the device adds the eighth content to the shared content session without outputting a set of selectable playback options.

In some embodiments, outputting an indication that the first application is capable of playing content that may be added to the shared content session includes outputting an indication (e.g., a notification) of whether the content is to be added to the shared content session (e.g., as described above with respect to FIG. 6AO). Outputting the indication of whether the content is to be added to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system of whether the content is to be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000A) (e.g., and an external computer system) are outputting (e.g., simultaneously outputting) a third media in a shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) receives (e.g., detects) an indication that a request (e.g., 6284) has occurred to move to a different position (e.g., elapsed playback time) of the third media (e.g., a user of the computer system or the external computer system has made a request to move to a different position within the third media (e.g., by scrubbing, selecting, and/or moving an interactive object (e.g., a scrubber bar)). In response to detecting that a request to move to a different position of the third media has occurred, in accordance with a determination that a request to move to a different position of the third media has occurred at the computer system (e.g., 6000A), the computer system displays a first media change notification (e.g., 6286) (e.g., a notification that the position of the third media has moved; in some embodiments, the first media change notification is output upon completion of the request to move to a different position of the third media (e.g., lift-off)) (e.g., while a different media change notification (e.g., a notification that a user of the computer system has changed the playback state of the third media (e.g., the third media has been paused, resumed, and/or moved)) is output at the external computer system). In accordance with a determination that a request to move to a different position of the third media occurred at the external computer system (e.g., 6000B), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a second media change notification (e.g., 6288) that is different from the first media change notification (e.g., a notification indicating that the third media has been paused, resumed, and/or moved) (e.g., while a different media change notification (e.g., a notification that the position of the third media has moved) is output at the external computer system). Displaying the first media change notification or the second media change notification in accordance with a determination that the request to move to a different position of the third media occurred at the computer system or the external computer system provides feedback to a user of the computer system as to whether the request to move to a different position of the third media occurred at the computer system or the external computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., and an external computer system) are outputting (e.g., simultaneously outputting) a fourth media in a shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) receives (e.g., detects) an indication that a request (e.g., 6284) has occurred to move to a different position in the fourth media (e.g., a user of the computer system or the external computer system has made a request to move to a different position in the fourth media (e.g., by scrubbing, selecting, and/or moving an interactive object (e.g., a scrubber bar)). In response to receiving (e.g., detecting) the indication that a request has occurred to move to a different position in the fourth media, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) pauses the output of the fourth media (e.g., the output is paused at 6000B in FIG. 6BD). In some embodiments, in response to an input at the computer system corresponding to a request to move to a different position of the fourth media, output of the fourth media is paused at one or more (e.g., all other) computer systems (e.g., external computer systems) connected to the shared content session. In some embodiments, in response to an input at the external computer system corresponding to a request to move to a different position of the fourth media, output of the fourth media is paused at the computer system (and, optionally, other external computer systems connected to the shared content session).

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000A) is connected to a shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6350) corresponding to a request to disconnect the computer system (e.g., 6000A) from the shared content session. In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to disconnect the computer system (e.g., 6000A) from the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a set of disconnect options (e.g., 6356, 6358, and 6360) including a first selectable disconnect option (e.g., 6358) that, when selected, causes the computer system (e.g., 6000A) to disconnect from the shared content session without terminating the shared content session, and a second selectable disconnect option (e.g., 6356) that, when selected, causes the shared content session to be terminated (e.g., causes all computer systems to disconnect from the shared content session). Displaying a set of disconnect options including a first selectable disconnect option and a second selectable disconnect option in response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to disconnect the computer system from the shared content session provides additional control for disconnecting from the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while the ninth content is in the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6326) corresponding to a request to add a tenth content (e.g., new content, content different from the ninth content) to the shared content session (e.g., share the tenth content via the shared content session). In response to detecting the input (e.g., 6326) corresponding to the request to add the tenth content to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs a set of content adding options (e.g., 6334 and 6336) including a first selectable content adding option (e.g., 6334) that, when selected, causes the tenth content to replace the ninth content in the shared content session, and a second selectable content adding option (e.g., 6336) that, when selected, cancels the request to add the tenth content to the shared content session. Outputting a set of content adding options including a first selectable content adding option and a second selectable content adding option provides additional control for adding content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the set of content adding options includes a third selectable content adding option that, when selected, causes a tenth piece of content to be added to the media queue. In some embodiments, the computer system outputs the set of content adding options when either the computer system or an external computer system (e.g., regardless of which computer system or participant) initiates sharing of a ninth piece of content (e.g., adds a ninth piece of content to the shared content session).

In some embodiments, while the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is connected to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects an input (e.g., 6190 or 6194) corresponding to a request to open a fourth application. In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to open the fourth application (and optionally in response to determining that the shared content session is active), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs (e.g., displays, initiates output of) a shared content session indicator (e.g., 6200, 6210, or 6132) (e.g., a notification, banner, and/or pop-up window) indicating that the shared content session is active (e.g., that was not output prior to detecting the input corresponding to the request to open an application). Outputting the shared content session indicator in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to open the fourth application provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the shared content session is active. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system outputs an indication of whether an application is capable of adding content to the shared content session and/or is configured to add content to the shared content session. In some embodiments, the computer system outputs an indication of whether the computer system receives (or has received) a request to add content to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the shared content session indicator includes (e.g., is) a notification (e.g., 6200) (e.g., a message stating that the content is not available for adding to the shared content session) that content accessible via the fourth application (e.g., content provided by the fourth application) is not available for adding to the shared content session (or is not available for adding to the shared content as synchronized content, even if it may be added as part of a screen sharing operation). Outputting a shared content session indicator that includes a notification that content accessible via the fourth application is not available for adding to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the content is not available for adding to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the shared content session indicator includes a notification that the content output by the fourth application is not available for adding to the shared content session pursuant to a determination that the content output by the fourth application is not available for adding to the shared content session (e.g., the sharable content is not available).

In some embodiments, the shared content session indicator includes (e.g., is) a notification (e.g., 6210) that content accessible via the fourth application (e.g., content provided by the fourth application) is available for adding to the shared content session (e.g., a message describing that the content is available for adding to the shared content session). Outputting the shared content session indicator that includes a notification that content accessible via the fourth application is available for adding to the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system that content is available for adding to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the shared content session indicator includes a notification when some of the content accessible via the fourth application is available for adding to the shared content session and some of the content accessible via the fourth application is not available for adding to the shared content session. In some embodiments, the notification indicates that the content is available for addition to the shared content session, but that the content is not currently shared with the shared content session (e.g., sharing is currently disabled). In some embodiments, the shared content session indicator includes a notification that the content output by the fourth application is available for addition to the shared content session pursuant to a determination that the content output by the fourth application is available for addition to the shared content session (e.g., sharable content is available).

In some embodiments, the shared content session indicator includes (e.g., is) a notification (e.g., 6210 or 6132) (e.g., a message stating that content will be added to the shared content session) that content accessible via the fourth application (e.g., content provided by the fourth application) will be added to the shared content session if content is played in the fourth application while the shared content session is active. Outputting the shared content session indicator including a notification that content accessible via the fourth application will be added to the shared content session if content is played in the fourth application while the shared content session is active provides feedback to a user of the computer system that content will be added to the shared content session if content is played in the fourth application while the shared content session is active. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the shared content session indicator includes a notification that the content output by the fourth application is added to the shared content session pursuant to a determination that the content output by the fourth application is added to the shared content session (e.g., sharable content is available and sharing is enabled).

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) receives a request (e.g., 6682 or 6696) to output an eleventh piece of content at the computer system (e.g., while the computer system is not currently outputting content that is in a shared content session, but there is an ongoing shared content session in which the computer system participates), and in response to receiving the request to output the eleventh piece of content, pursuant to a determination that the computer system is participating in a shared content session in which the eleventh piece of content is currently in the shared content session (e.g., the eleventh piece of content is synchronized content (e.g., 6150A of FIG. 6EN) that was playing when the user stopped viewing the synchronized content, or is content that a participant in the shared content session has started viewing), the computer system determines whether an external computer system is simultaneously outputting the eleventh piece of content (e.g., Media PiP of FIG. 6EO). 6150B) at a location (e.g., a time location) within the eleventh content (e.g., a synchronization location), and pursuant to a determination that the computer system is participating in a shared content session that includes twelfth content that is different from the eleventh content (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6EF), the computer system initiates a process to replace the twelfth content with the eleventh content (e.g., display prompt 6686 of FIG. 6EG) (and optionally add the eleventh content to the shared content session). Selectively outputting the eleventh content at a location corresponding to the output of the eleventh content in the external computer system and initiating a process to replace the twelfth content with the eleventh content based on whether the eleventh content or the twelfth content is currently in the shared content session provides a contextually relevant response to a request to output the eleventh content, provides a user with an efficient way to select whether to add the eleventh content to a shared content session when the eleventh content is not already in the shared content session, which provides improved visual feedback to the user, and performs an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to output the eleventh content and in accordance with a determination that the computer system is not participating in a shared content session, the computer system outputs (e.g., plays or resumes playing) the eleventh content at a different location (e.g., a time location) (e.g., a synchronization location) within the eleventh content (e.g., the beginning of the content or a location where a user of the computer system most recently stopped viewing the content). In some embodiments, the process for outputting the eleventh content includes displaying one or more selectable options (e.g., 6686-1, 6686-2, and/or 6686-3) that, when selected, cause the computer system to output the eleventh content without adding the eleventh content to the shared content session or to output the eleventh content and add the eleventh content to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, while content in the shared content session is not being output by the computer system (e.g., 6000A) (e.g., content is being shared in the shared content system, but a user of the computer system is not viewing the shared content (e.g., has closed the content) and, optionally, still participating in some parts of the shared content session, such as audio and/or video chat, associated with the shared content session): the computer system detects an input (e.g., 6306) corresponding to a request to display information and/or controls of the shared content session (e.g., 6015A). In response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to display information and/or controls of the shared content session, the computer system simultaneously displays a second shared content session object (e.g., 6015A) including information associated with the shared content session and/or one or more selectable options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session, and a notification (e.g., 6312) including an indication of the content in the shared content session that has not been output by the computer system (e.g., a persistent notification, within or under the shared content session object). In response to detecting an input corresponding to a request to display information and/or control for a shared content session, simultaneously displaying a shared content session object and a notification that includes an indication of content within the shared content session that has not been output by the computer system automatically and efficiently notifies or reminds the user of content within the shared content session that is available for output, which provides improved visual feedback to the user.

In some embodiments, in response to detecting an input (e.g., 6310) corresponding to a selection of a notification (e.g., 6312), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) outputs content that is in the shared content session but has not been output by the computer system (e.g., 6150A of FIG. 6BJ), or displays a user interface (e.g., a pop-up menu) (e.g., 6220 or 6686) that includes a playback option (e.g., 6220-1, 6620-2, 6686-1, or 6686-2) that, when selected, causes the computer system to output the content. In some embodiments, a second shared content session object (e.g., 6015A) is displayed, and pursuant to a determination that content that has not been output by the computer system is present in the shared content session, the computer system displays (e.g., in the second shared content session object) a notification (e.g., 6312) that content that has not been output by the computer system is present in the shared content session, the notification including an indication of which content is in the shared content session. In some embodiments, in response to a request (e.g., 6306) to display the second shared content session object, and following a determination that there is content in the shared content session that has not been output by the computer system, the computer system displays a notification (e.g., 6312) (e.g., in the second shared content session object).

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 10) described above with respect to method 1000 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1000. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

11 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for outputting content in a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B), according to some embodiments. Method 1100 is performed on a computer system (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A, 6001B, 6007A, and/or 6007B) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, 6003A, 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1100 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1100 provides an intuitive way to output content in a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to output content in a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to output content in a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

A computer system (e.g., 6000B) receives (1102) (in some embodiments, while displaying a first user interface (e.g., a system user interface (e.g., a "Home" screen) via an output generating component of one or more output generating components) (a user interface for a first application (e.g., a web browser application, a music application) running on the computer system) and (in some embodiments, while a shared content session between the computer system and the external computer system is active) first data associated with a request (e.g., 6224, 6376, or 6398) (e.g., initiated by an external computer system) to add a first content (e.g., "First Episode") (e.g., synchronized content and/or screen sharing content) to a shared content session between the external computer system (e.g., 6000A) and the computer system (e.g., 6000B).

In response to receiving first data associated with a request to add the first content to the shared content session (1104), following a determination that content output criteria are met based on whether the content is available for output by the computer system (e.g., 6000B) in a predetermined manner (e.g., one or more sets of criteria that must be met to output the first content at the computer system (e.g., an application is available (e.g., downloaded/installed) at the computer system to output the first content, a user account associated with the computer system has a valid content subscription to output the first content, an application for outputting the first content is available for output in the shared content session (e.g., the application supports a PiP display format or a PiP display format is enabled for the application), and/or the first content is available for output by the computer system (e.g., 6000B). 6AQ) via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B). In accordance with a determination that the content output criteria is not met (e.g., while the first content is being output (e.g., played, displayed) at the external computer system), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) outputs (1108) a notification (e.g., 6380 or 6400) that the first content has been added to the shared content session, without outputting the first content at the computer system (e.g., 6000B) via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B) (e.g., while the first content is being output (e.g., played, displayed) at the external computer system). Displaying a notification that the first content was added to the shared content session without outputting the first content at the computer system pursuant to a determination that the content output criteria was not met provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the first content being added to the shared content session when the content output criteria was not met. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) that outputs the first content includes the computer system (e.g., 6000B) outputting the first content in a window (e.g., 6150B) that is overlaid on a portion of a user interface (e.g., 6170B) that is simultaneously output by an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B). In some embodiments, the first content is output in the foreground (e.g., in front of all other currently output content (e.g., other windows or user interfaces)).

In some embodiments, the content output criteria are based on whether an application capable of outputting the content (e.g., an application associated with or required to output the first content) is available (e.g., currently stored, currently downloaded) on the computer system (e.g., FIGS. 6BX-6CA) (e.g., satisfied if sufficient conditions are met, including necessary conditions that define it). In some embodiments, the content output criteria are not satisfied if the application is not available on the computer system. In some embodiments, the content output criteria are not satisfied if the application is available on the computer system but the user is not signed in to the application and/or the user's subscription is not current or valid.

In some embodiments, the content output criteria are based on whether the computer system (e.g., 6000B) has access (e.g., is logged in) to a subscription service that provides access (e.g., is required to output, allows access) to the first content (e.g., FIG. 6CB-6CH) (e.g., is satisfied if sufficient conditions are met, including requirements that define the same). In some embodiments, if a subscription is required to output the first content and the computer system does not have access to the subscription service (e.g., the user is not signed in to the application and/or the user's subscription is not current or valid), the content output criteria are not satisfied.

In some embodiments, the content output criterion is based on whether the application used to output the first content is configured to output the first content in a predetermined manner (e.g., in a picture-in-picture window) (e.g., is met if sufficient conditions are met, including requirements that define the same). In some embodiments, the content output criterion is not met if the user is not signed in to the application and/or the user's subscription is not current and valid.

In some embodiments, the content output criteria are based on a type of content sharing (e.g., the manner in which the content is shared, screen sharing, audio sharing, video sharing, music sharing, and/or synchronized content sharing). In some embodiments, the content output criteria are met if the first content is requested to be added to the shared content session according to a first type of content sharing (e.g., screen sharing). In some embodiments, the content output criteria are not met if the first content is requested to be added to the shared content session according to a second type of content sharing that is different from the first type of content sharing (e.g., synchronized content sharing).

In some embodiments, outputting the first content includes outputting the first content at a first quality (e.g., resolution, update rate, and/or data rate) when the first content is added to the shared content session according to a first type of content sharing (e.g., screen sharing) (e.g., according to a determination thereof) and outputting the first content at a second quality (e.g., a quality lower than the first quality, a quality higher than the first quality) different from the first quality when the first content is added to the shared content session according to a second type of content sharing (e.g., media (e.g., video, audio, and/or music) sharing and/or synchronous content sharing) (e.g., according to a determination thereof). Outputting the first content at the first or second quality when the first content is added to the shared content session according to the first or second type of content sharing conserves bandwidth and conserves computational resources by reducing the amount of data processed for display and/or transmission at the higher quality. Conserving computing resources improves the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays information (e.g., 6386 or 6406) about the content output criteria (e.g., information indicating to the user what is required to satisfy the content output criteria, such as an application capable of outputting the content or a subscription that allows access to the content). Displaying the information about the content output criteria provides feedback to the user of the computer system about the criteria for outputting the first content when the first content is added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system displays the information about the content output criteria pursuant to a determination that the content output criteria is not satisfied and/or responsive to receiving the first data associated with a request to add the first content to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the information about the content output criteria includes a selectable download option that, when selected, causes the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to initiate a process (e.g., FIG. 6BY-6CA) of downloading an application configured to output the first content (e.g., requested). Displaying the information about the content output criteria including the selectable download option provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the criteria for outputting the first content when the first content is added to the shared content session, provides an additional control option for initiating a process of downloading an application configured to output the first content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the information about the content output criteria includes a selectable subscription option that, when selected, causes the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to initiate a process (e.g., FIGS. 6CC-6CG) for obtaining (e.g., initiating, paying for) a subscription (e.g., to an application, program, and/or service) that provides access to the first content. Displaying the information about the content output criteria including the selectable subscription option provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the criteria for outputting the first content when the first content is added to the shared content session, provides an additional control option for initiating a process for obtaining a subscription that provides access to the first content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the subscription option is provided (e.g., displayed) in an application associated with the first content (e.g., an application associated with a subscription that provides access to the first content).

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects an input (e.g., 6384 or 6404) (e.g., a tap gesture on the notification and/or pressing a button or other activation command while the notification is in focus) corresponding to a selection of a notification (e.g., 6380 or 6400) that the first content has been added to the shared content session. In response to the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detecting the input corresponding to a selection of the notification that the first content has been added to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a user interface (e.g., 6392 and/or 6412) (e.g., an application store interface) that provides the ability to obtain (e.g., download) an application configured to output the first content. Displaying a user interface providing the ability to obtain an application configured to output the first content in response to detecting an input corresponding to a selection of the notification that the first content has been added to the shared content session provides an additional control option for obtaining the application configured to output the first content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed until an input corresponding to a selection of the notification that the first content has been added to the shared content session is detected. Providing the additional control option without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves the usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displaying a user interface providing the ability to obtain an application for outputting the first content includes a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displaying a selectable download option (e.g., 6388 and/or 6394) that, when selected, initiates a process for the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to download an application configured to output the first content. Displaying a user interface providing the ability to obtain an application for outputting the first content that includes a selectable download option that initiates a process for downloading an application configured to output the first content information related to the content output criteria that includes the selectable download option provides an additional control option for initiating a process for downloading an application configured to output the first content without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while the shared content session is active and after ceasing output (e.g., by an output generating component of one or more output generating components) of the first content (e.g., via inputs 6114, 6298, 6350, 6362, 6364, or 6372) (e.g., after the computer system ceasing output of the content or leaving the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects a request (e.g., 6310) to rejoin the shared content session (e.g., resume output of the first content, rejoin the shared content session, and output the first content). In response to the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detecting the request (e.g., 6026) to rejoin the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) outputs the first content. In some embodiments, the user is requested to manually resume output of the first content or rejoin the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the request to output the first content is made in response to an output content option (e.g., 6015A-1 or 6015B-1) (e.g., an icon, button, and/or affordance) included in a shared content session object (e.g., 6015A or 6015B) that includes information related to the shared content session (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-2, and/or 6015A-3), and/or when selected, , including the selection of one or more selectable shared content session function options (e.g., 6015A-1, 6015B-1, 6015A-4, 6015B-4, 6015A-5, 6015B-5, 6015A-6, 6015B-6, 6015A-7, 6015B-7, 6015A-8, 6015B-8, 6015A-9, and/or 6015B-9) that cause a computer system (e.g., 6000B) to perform a particular function associated with the shared content session. In some embodiments, the shared content session object includes a selectable join option that, when selected, causes the computer system to join the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) ceases outputting the first content (e.g., automatically, without user input) in response to receiving an incoming call (e.g., FIG. 6AC) (e.g., telephone, video call). Ceasing outputting the first content in response to receiving an incoming call conserves computational resources of the computer system by automatically ceasing outputting the first content without requiring additional input from the user and ceasing outputting the first content when an incoming call is received. Conserving computational resources of the computer system improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, while the shared content session is active and the computer system is outputting the first content, the computer system receives an incoming call and, in response, ceases outputting the first content (e.g., while optionally remaining connected to the shared content session). In some embodiments, the computer system terminates the shared content session in response to receiving an incoming call.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) discontinues output of the first content (e.g., automatically, without user input) in response to the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detecting (e.g., by the computer system) (or, optionally, accepting) a request (e.g., 6298) to output content (e.g., content that cannot be shared and/or that is not supported by and/or is incompatible with the shared content session) (6296) that cannot be added to the shared content session. Discontinuing the output of the first content in response to detecting a request to output content that cannot be added to the shared content session conserves computing resources of the computer system by automatically discontinuing the output of the first content without requiring additional input from the user and discontinuing the output of the first content when a request is received. Conserving computing resources of the computer system improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, while the shared content session is active and the computer system is outputting the first content, the computer system detects or accepts a request to output content that cannot be added to the shared content session and, in response, ceases outputting the first content (e.g., optionally while maintaining a connection to the shared content session). In some embodiments, the computer system automatically terminates the shared content session in response to detecting and/or accepting a request to output content that cannot be added to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, while the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is outputting the first content, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detects a request (e.g., 6298) to play second content (e.g., 6296) that cannot be added to the shared content session. In response to the computer system (e.g., 6000A) detecting the request to play the second content, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) initiates a process to play the second content. After the computer system (e.g., 6000B) has played at least a portion of the second content, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) stops playing the second content (e.g., in response to the request to stop playing the second content or as a result of reaching an end of the second content). After the computer system (e.g., 6000B) stops playing the second content (e.g., in conjunction with or in response thereto), in accordance with a determination that the shared content session is ongoing, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a selectable output content notification (e.g., 6312 and/or 6314) that, when selected, initiates a process to output (e.g., resume output, resume playback) the individual content currently being played in the shared content session (e.g., the first content or the third content if the shared content session has switched to playing the third content). Displaying a selectable output content notification after stopping displaying the second content in accordance with a determination that the shared content session is ongoing provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the shared content session is continuing, provides an additional control option for initiating a process to output the individual content currently being played in the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until after the playback of the second content has been stopped, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, upon completion of playback of unsupported media, the computer system displays a notification that the user may select to resume output of the content and/or rejoin the shared content session.

In some embodiments, after the computer system (e.g., 6000B) stops playing the second content (e.g., in conjunction with or in response thereto), in accordance with a determination that the shared content session is no longer in progress, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) ceases displaying a selectable output content notification that, when selected, initiates a process to output (e.g., resume output, resume playback) the individual content currently being played in the shared content session (e.g., the first content or the third content if the shared content session has switched to playing the third content). In some embodiments, once playback of the unsupported media is complete, the computer system displays a notification that can be selected to resume output of the content and/or rejoin the shared content session.

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 11) described above with respect to method 1100 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1100. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

FIG. 12 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for integrating a messaging interface and a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000B) according to some embodiments. Method 1200 is performed on a computer system (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B and/or 6007B) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1200 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1200 provides an intuitive way to integrate a shared content session with a messaging interface. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to use a messaging interface in conjunction with a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to participate in a shared content session with a messaging interface is faster and more efficient, conserving power and increasing the time between battery charges.

The computer system (e.g., 6000B), via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B), displays (1202) a messaging interface (e.g., 6004A or 6004B) (e.g., a user interface of a messaging application) for an individual message conversation (e.g., 6004A-1 and/or 6004B-1), including simultaneously displaying a message display area (e.g., 6004A-3 or 6004B-3) (1204) (e.g., a text message display area) of an individual message conversation between two or more participants (e.g., 6004A-2) of the individual message conversation that includes multiple messages (e.g., 6004A-1 or 6004B-1) from different participants of the message conversation to other participants (in some embodiments, the message display area displays one or more messages from a user associated with the computer system and/or a message display area related to the computer system). a graphical representation (1206) (e.g., 6010A or 6010B) of an ongoing shared content session with one or more participants of the message conversation (e.g., using an electronic device of the message conversation participant), the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session including first information regarding one or more parameters of the shared content session, including content of the shared content session (e.g., information about the content (e.g., the title of the content and/or the playing status of the content)) (in some embodiments, the content is synchronized content and/or screen shared content) and participant status of the shared content session (e.g., the number of participants, the names of the participants, the status of the participants, the identifiers, and/or the activity levels of the participants).

After the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays the messaging interface, and after one or more parameters of the ongoing shared content session change (e.g., after a participant leaves or joins the shared content session, after different content is shared or output in connection with the shared content session, and/or after the playback status of the content changes), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) receives a request (e.g., 6034) to display a portion of the individual message conversation that includes a graphical representation of the shared content session (1208).

In response to the computer system (e.g., 6000B) receiving a request to display a portion of an individual message conversation including a graphical representation of the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays (1210) multiple messages from different participants to other participants in the message conversation along with an updated graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session, where the updated representation of the ongoing shared content session includes second information regarding one or more parameters of the shared content session different from the first information, including different content in the shared content session (e.g., information regarding the different content (e.g., titles of the different content and/or playback status of the different content)) and/or different participant status in the shared content session (e.g., number of participants, identifiers, and/or activity level) (e.g., 6010A and 6010B of Figures 6H and 6I compared to Figures 6C and 6D). Displaying multiple messages from different participants to other participants in the message conversation along with an updated graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding second information regarding one or more parameters of the shared content session that differs from the first information, including different content in the shared content session and/or different participant statuses in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays selectable join options (e.g., 6010B-1 and/or 6024-1) (e.g., icons, affordances, and/or buttons) that, when selected, initiate a process of joining an ongoing shared content session (e.g., a process in which the computer system joins or connects to an ongoing shared content session). Displaying the selectable join options provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the status of the ongoing shared content session, provides an additional control option for initiating a process of joining an ongoing shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the join option is displayed in a messaging interface, in a message display area of an individual message conversation, or in a message in an individual message conversation. In some embodiments, the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session includes the join option (e.g., is a join option). In some embodiments, the computer system detects input corresponding to a selection of the join option and, in response, initiates a process to join the ongoing shared content session. In some embodiments, the computer system displays the join option after the computer system disconnects (e.g., leaves) the shared content session.

In some embodiments, displaying the join option includes displaying a join option (e.g., 6010B-1) in a message display area (e.g., 6004A-3 and/or 6004B-3) of the individual message conversation (e.g., FIG. 6D). In some embodiments, displaying the join option occurs in response to receiving an indication (e.g., in response to 6008) that a participant of the individual message conversation (e.g., an external participant, a participant associated with an external computer system) has started a shared content session. Displaying the join option in the message display area of the individual message conversation in response to receiving an indication that a participant of the individual message conversation has started a shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the status of the ongoing shared content session, provides an additional control option for initiating the process of joining the ongoing shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed options, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed until an indication is received that a participant of the individual message conversation has started a shared content session. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental inputs improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, displaying the join option occurs pursuant to a determination that a participant of the individual message conversation other than the participant associated with the computer system (e.g., a remote participant, a participant associated with an external or remote computer system) has initiated a shared content session. In some embodiments, the join option is selectable to initiate a process for joining the shared content session (e.g., a user of the computer system or an external computer system can select the join option to join a shared content session that they have been invited to participate in).

In some embodiments, following a determination that the shared content session is initiated by the computer system (e.g., 6000A), the computer system (e.g., 6000A) ceases displaying the join option (e.g., 6010A does not include the join option 6010B-1) (e.g., displays a messaging interface without the join option (in some embodiments, displays a "Leave" option instead of the "Join" option, the leave option being selectable to disconnect the computer system from the shared content session)). Ceasing to display the join option following a determination that the shared content session is initiated by the computer system reduces the computational workload of the computer system by ceasing to display the join option and avoiding accidental inputs while the join option is not displayed. Reducing the computational workload improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves the battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that an ongoing shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 6000B) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000A) is active (e.g., the computer system is connecting, joining, and/or participating in the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) ceases displaying join options (e.g., 6010B of FIG. 6F does not include join option 6010B-1) (e.g., displays a messaging interface without a join option (in some embodiments, displays a "Leave" option instead of a "Join" option, the leave option being selectable to disconnect the computer system from the shared content session)). Ceasing to display join options pursuant to a determination that an ongoing shared content session between the computer system and one or more external computer systems is active reduces the computational workload of the computer system by ceasing to display join options and avoiding accidental input while join options are not displayed. Improves operability of the computer system by reducing the computational workload, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while the computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) displays a messaging interface for an individual message conversation, the computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) displays one or more selectable communication options (e.g., 6015A-7 and/or 6015B-7) that, when selected, initiates a process for initiating an individual real-time communication session (e.g., a real-time audio communication session, a real-time video communication session, a real-time audio/video communication session). Displaying one or more selectable communication options provides an additional control option for initiating a process for initiating an individual real-time communication session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection of one or more selectable communication options, the computer system initiates a separate real-time communication session (e.g., automatically, without further user input).

In some embodiments, while the computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) displays a messaging interface for an individual message conversation, the computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) displays one or more selectable status options (e.g., 6015A-1 and/or 6015B-1) that, when selected (e.g., via input 6036 of FIG. 6I ), causes the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to display status information (e.g., 6038 and/or 6042A) of two or more participants of the individual message conversation (e.g., the status of the participants of the individual message conversation with respect to the shared content session). Displaying one or more selectable status options provides an additional control option for causing the computer system to display status information of two or more participants of the individual message conversation without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session includes displaying the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session (e.g., 6010A and/or 6010B) in a message display area (e.g., 6004A-3 and/or 6004B-3) when the shared content session is initiated from a messaging interface (e.g., 6004A and/or 6004B) (e.g., pursuant to a determination to that effect) or when the shared content session is not initiated from a messaging interface (e.g., pursuant to a determination to that effect). Displaying the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session in a message display area when the shared content session is initiated from a messaging interface or when the shared content session is not initiated from a messaging interface provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the status of the ongoing shared content session and indicates that the shared content session is associated with participants of the message conversation. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, a graphical representation of an ongoing shared content session is displayed in the message display area regardless of whether the shared content session was initiated from the messaging interface.

In some embodiments, the individual message conversation includes multiple messages (e.g., 6004A-1 and/or 6004B-1) that occurred before the start of the shared content session. In some embodiments, the multiple messages that occurred before the start of the shared content session are displayed in a message display area above the graphical representation of the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the individual message conversation includes multiple messages (e.g., 6352) that occurred after the start of the shared content session. In some embodiments, the multiple messages that occurred after the start of the shared content session are displayed in a message display area below the graphical representation of the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the graphical representation of the shared content session (e.g., 6010A, 6010B, and/or 6024) includes a description of the activities in the shared content session (e.g., "Watching First Episode" in FIG. 6BK) (e.g., users were invited to, joined, and/or left the shared content session, content was shared (added to the shared content session), and/or content stopped being shared (removed from the shared content session). Displaying the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session including the description of the activities in the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system about the status of the ongoing shared content session and the activities occurring in connection with the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, after a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a graphical representation (e.g., 6010A, 6010B, and/or 6024) of a shared content session including a description of a first activity in the shared content session (e.g., a participant in the shared content session has a first status (e.g., participating in the shared content session), is watching a first video content, is outputting a first audio content (e.g., media and/or audio communication audio), and/or is displaying a first screen shared content), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects a second activity in the shared content session that is different from the first activity (e.g., a participant in the shared content session has a second status, is watching a second video content, is outputting a second audio content (e.g., media and/or audio communication audio), and/or is displaying a second screen shared content). In some embodiments, after the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects (e.g., in response to) a second activity in the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a graphical representation of the shared content session that includes a description of the second activity in the shared content session (e.g., "Watch Movie 3" in FIG. 6BR) that differs from the description of the first activity in the shared content session (e.g., updates the description of the activity included in the graphical representation of the shared content session based on the change in activity in the shared content session). Displaying the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session that includes the description of the second activity in the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system about the change in activity in the ongoing shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the graphical representation of the shared content session (e.g., 6010A, 6010B, and/or 6024) includes a number of participants in the shared content session (e.g., a number of invited participants (e.g., invited but not joining) and/or a number of active participants (e.g., participants who have joined and are participating in the shared content session)). Displaying the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session including the number of participants in the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system about the status of the ongoing shared content session and the number of participants in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, after the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a graphical representation (e.g., 6010A, 6010B, and/or 6024) of the shared content session that includes a first number of participants in the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects a change in the number of participants in the shared content session (e.g., one or more participants in the shared content session join and/or leave the shared content session, causing a change in the cumulative number of participants). In some embodiments, after the computer system (e.g., 6000B) detects (e.g., in response to) a change in the number of participants in the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a graphical representation (e.g., see 6010A and 6010B in FIGS. 6D and 6F-L) of the shared content session that includes a second number of participants in the shared content session that is different from the first number of participants in the shared content session (e.g., updating the number of participants included in the graphical representation of the shared content session based on the change in the number of participants in the shared content session). Displaying the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session including the second number of participants in the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system about the change in the number of participants in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) receives an indication of a change in the status of a participant in a shared content session (e.g., a user has joined or left the shared content session). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the indication of a change in the status of a participant in a shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) updates the participant status in the graphical representation (e.g., 6010A, 6010B, and/or 6024) of the ongoing shared content session (e.g., see 6010A and 6010B in FIGS. 6D and 6F-6L) (e.g., to reflect a different number of participants and/or to add or remove a participant's representation). In response to receiving the indication of a change in the status of a participant in a shared content session, updating the participant status in the graphical representation of the ongoing shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system about the state of the ongoing shared content session and the current status of the participants in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 12) described above with respect to method 1200 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1200. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

Figure 13 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for displaying information associated with a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) in accordance with some embodiments. Method 1300 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 6000A and/or 6000B) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001A, 6001B, 6007A, and/or 6007B) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, 6003A, 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1300 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1300 provides an intuitive way to display information associated with a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to display information associated with a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to display information related to a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

While a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B or 6000A) is active (1302), the computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) receives a request (e.g., 6036 or 6322) via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001A, 6002A, 6003A, 6001B, 6002B, and/or 6003B) to display information associated with the shared content session (e.g., input related to an indication of an ongoing shared content session, input related to a representation of the shared content) (1304). In response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session (1306), the computer system (e.g., 6000B), via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B), displays (1308) an indication (e.g., 6042A or 6042B) (e.g., textual, graphical indication) of one or more participants in the shared content session (e.g., "Ryan Apples" in FIG. 6J) and one or more users (e.g., "Kenneth Smith" in FIG. 6J) who have been invited to the shared content session but have not participated in the shared content session (e.g., a list of users associated with one or more external computer systems who are active in the shared content session or who have been invited to participate in the shared content session (e.g., user account identifiers (e.g., names)) (in some embodiments, the indication of participants includes an indication of the user of the computer system).

Pursuant to a determination that the shared content session includes first content (e.g., synchronized content and/or screen sharing content), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays (1310) (e.g., simultaneously displays) a representation (e.g., 6330) of the first content via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B) (e.g., the first content is displayed (e.g., simultaneously) at the computer system and an external computer system associated with the participants of the shared content session).

In accordance with a determination that the shared content session includes second content (e.g., content for synchronized output) different from the first content (e.g., screen sharing content), the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays (e.g., simultaneously displays) (1312) a representation of the second content (e.g., 6328) different from the representation of the first content via an output generating component of one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001B) (e.g., the second content is displayed (e.g., simultaneously) at a computer system associated with the participants of the shared content session and at an external computer system). Displaying an indication of one or more participants in the shared content session and one or more users invited to the shared content session but not participating in the shared content session, and displaying a representation of the first content or a representation of the second content in accordance with a determination that the shared content session includes the first or second content provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the status of the participants in the shared content session and the content to be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, one or more users (and one or more participants in the shared content session) who are invited to but do not participate in the shared content session are participants in a group messaging conversation (e.g., 6004) that occurred before the shared content session was active. In some embodiments, the group messaging conversation continues to occur while the shared content session is active and/or afterwards. In some embodiments, the shared content session is activated by a request by one of the participants in the group messaging conversation to invite participants in the messaging conversation as a group.

In some embodiments, one or more users (and one or more participants of the shared content session) who are invited to but do not participate in the shared content session are participants of a previous shared content session (e.g., the shared content session of FIG. 6C) that occurred before the shared content session (e.g., the shared content session of FIG. 6BK) (e.g., the current shared content session) was active (e.g., a shared content session that was active before activation of the current shared content session and that was optionally deactivated thereafter). In some embodiments, the group messaging conversation continues to occur while the shared content session is active and/or afterwards. In some embodiments, the shared content session is activated by a request by one of the participants of the group messaging conversation to invite participants of the messaging conversation as a group.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, a computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays one or more users' statuses (e.g., 6046 of FIG. 6J) (e.g., joined, invited, active, inactive, muted, audio muted, video muted, online, offline, and/or away) for the shared content session, including a first status (e.g., "Active") of a first user (e.g., "Apples") for the shared content session and a second status (e.g., "Invited") of a second user (e.g., "Kenneth Smith") for the shared content session, where the second user is different from the first user. Displaying the one or more users' statuses for the shared content session provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the status of the shared content session participants for the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the status of one or more users is included in an indication of one or more participants in the shared content session and one or more users who have been invited to the shared content session but have not joined the shared content session.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, a computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a status of the content (e.g., "Watching First Episode") in the shared content session for one or more users (e.g., User A is watching Content X and/or User B is watching Content Y) (e.g., watch, listen, play, and/or pause), including displaying a first status of the content for a first user (e.g., "Ryan Apples") and a second status of the content for a second user ("John Appleseed") different from the first user (e.g., FIG. 6BL). Displaying the status of the content in the shared content session for one or more users provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the status of the content in the shared content session for one or more users participating in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the status of the content in the shared content session is included in an indication of one or more participants in the shared content session and one or more users who have been invited to the shared content session but have not joined the shared content session.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays a selectable group messaging object (e.g., 6015A-4 or 6015B-4) that, when selected, causes the computer system (e.g., 6000B) to provide (e.g., display) a messaging interface (e.g., 6004A or 6004B) of a group message conversation including users associated with the shared content session (e.g., users who have joined or been invited to the shared content session). Displaying a selectable group messaging object in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides an additional control option for causing the computer system to provide a messaging interface of a group message conversation including users associated with the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until a request is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the group message conversation exists while the shared content session is active or inactive. In some embodiments, the messaging interface includes a plurality of messages between participants of the group message conversation (e.g., in a message area of the messaging interface).

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) displays a selectable leave option (e.g., 6040-1) that, when selected, causes the computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) to leave (e.g., disconnect, terminate) the shared content session. Displaying a selectable leave object in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides the computer system with an additional control option for leaving the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until a request is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves the usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, when a computer system leaves a shared content session, the computer system is no longer communicating with one or more external computer systems via the shared content session. In some embodiments, when a computer system leaves a shared content session, the shared content session remains active between two or more of the external computer systems (e.g., two or more of the external computer systems remain in communication via the shared content session).

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays an indication (e.g., 6038A-1) of the identities of the users (e.g., group of users) associated (e.g., as a group) with the shared content session (e.g., names, group names, photos, and/or photos representing the group (e.g., multiple users). Displaying an indication of the identities of the users associated with the shared content session in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the identities of the users associated with the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the identities of users (e.g., groups) associated with a shared content session exist (e.g., remain remembered and available in applications, such as applications that store information about contactable users (e.g., contacts applications), messaging applications, video chat applications, and/or phone applications) after the shared content session is no longer active.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays an add participant option (e.g., 6044A or 6044B) that, when selected, initiates a process to invite (or optionally add) a user to the shared content session (e.g., add or invite to a group of users associated with the shared content session). Displaying the add participant option in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides an additional control option for initiating the process of inviting a user to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until a request is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves the usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the process of adding a user to a shared content session includes displaying an interface (e.g., including a list of users) that provides the ability to search for, find, and/or select a user.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000A) displays a selectable reminder option (e.g., 6048) that, when selected, causes one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B) associated with one or more of the one or more users who have been invited to the shared content session but have not participated in the shared content session to output a reminder to join the shared content session (e.g., display a notification or alert and output a visual, tactile, audio, and/or tactile output). Displaying the selectable reminder option in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides an additional control option for causing one or more external computer systems associated with one or more of the one or more users who have been invited to the shared content session but have not participated in the shared content session to output a reminder to join the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until a request is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, a computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) displays a selectable copy invite option (e.g., 6050A or 6050B) that, when selected, copies a link to the shared content session. Displaying a selectable copy invite option in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides an additional control option for copying a link to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until a request is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing an additional control option without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls and avoiding accidental input improves the usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system pastes the copied link (e.g., in response to receiving an input corresponding to a request to insert the copied link into a displayed field (e.g., a message composition field) of a communication interface (e.g., a messaging application, an email application)). In some embodiments, the computer system sends the copied link (e.g., via a messaging application, via an email application) to a computer system associated with the user's account to invite and/or allow the computer system associated with the user's account to participate in the shared content session.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays one or more representations (e.g., 6052A or 6052B) of content that was previously in the shared content session (and/or, optionally, was previously added and is currently in the shared content session). Displaying one or more representations of content that was previously in the shared content session in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the content that was previously in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system displays a history of some or all of the content in the shared content session with this group of participants.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays one or more indications (e.g., 6056) (e.g., names, initials, photos, and/or avatar representations) of users who added (e.g., initiated sharing) content previously output during a separate shared content session (e.g., the current shared content session or a previous shared content session) involving the participants of the shared content session. Displaying one or more indications of users who added content previously output during a separate shared content session involving the participants of the shared content session in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding users who added content previously output during a shared content session involving the participants of the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the computer system displays an indication of a user who initiated sharing of (e.g., each) content that was previously in the shared content session (and/or, optionally, was previously added and is currently in the shared content session).

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B) displays an indication (e.g., 6330-1) of the status (e.g., playback progress, pause, stop, play, and/or current position or time) of the content (e.g., currently outputted content) in the shared content session. Displaying an indication of the status of the content in the shared content session in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides feedback to a user of the computer system regarding the progress of the content in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments (e.g., the embodiments shown in Figures 14A-14AG), the request to view information associated with the shared content session includes selecting a selectable option (e.g., 14040A or 14040B) in a status bar (e.g., 14020A or 14020B) on a desktop user interface.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000B or 6000A) displays a selectable play for everyone option (or selectable play for group option 6220-1) that, when selected, selects (e.g., changes) a parameter of the shared content session that at least partially determines whether the selected content is added to the shared content session (e.g., playback for the group is enabled or disabled). Displaying a selectable play for everyone (or play for group) option in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session provides an additional control option for selecting a parameter of the shared content session that at least partially determines whether the selected content is added to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until a request is received, and avoids accidental input while the additional control option is not displayed. Providing additional control options and avoiding accidental input without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, in response to a computer system (e.g., 6000A or 6000B) receiving a request to display information associated with a shared content session, an indication (e.g., 6038A, 6038B, 6042A, and/or 6042B) of one or more participants in the shared content session and one or more users who have been invited to the shared content session but have not participated in the shared content session is displayed concurrently with the content (e.g., 6150B) (e.g., the first content, the second content) in the shared content session (e.g., FIG. 6BO) in response to the computer system receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session. Displaying the indication (e.g., 6150B) of one or more participants in the shared content session and one or more users who have been invited to the shared content session but have not participated in the shared content session concurrently with the content in the shared content session provides a user of the computer system with feedback about the participants in the shared content session and the content in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000B), via an output generating component (e.g., 6001B) of the one or more output generating components (and optionally in response to receiving a request to display information associated with the shared content session), displays selectable display mode options (e.g., 6676) (e.g., icons, affordances, buttons, or toggle switches) that, when selected, set (e.g., change) the layout (e.g., a grid layout, or a layout in which the representations of the participants of the video communication session (e.g., a video communication session between the participants of the shared content session) are displayed in the user interface of the video communication application. Displaying selectable display mode options for setting the layout in which the representations of the participants of the video communication session are displayed in the user interface of the video communication application provides an efficient way for a user to select and set the layout, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displays.

In some embodiments, the display mode option (e.g., 6676) is displayed concurrently with an indication of one or more participants of the shared content session, one or more users invited to the shared content session but not participating in the shared content session, the representation of the first content, and/or the representation of the second content (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6EC). In some embodiments, the display mode option sets the layout of the video communication application (e.g., 6170) (e.g., the selected layout is applied to other (e.g., subsequent) video communication sessions performed using the video communication application, and the selected layout is persistent). In some embodiments, the display mode option sets the layout of the current video communication session (e.g., the video communication session that is active at the time the display mode option is selected, but not active in subsequent video communication sessions). In some embodiments, the display mode option sets the layout only for participants associated with the computer system, or alternatively, for one or more remote participants associated with an external computer system connected to the video communication session (e.g., all participants in the video communication session).

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 13) described above with respect to method 1300 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1300. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

FIGS. 14A-14AG show example user interfaces for managing a shared content session, according to some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes of FIGS. 15-16. In some embodiments, the user interfaces of FIGS. 14A-14AG can be used to illustrate one or more aspects of the processes described above with respect to FIGS. 7-13 and below with respect to FIGS. 17-20B.

14A illustrates exemplary devices for participating in a shared content session, according to some embodiments. Specifically, the devices include John's device 14000A (e.g., a laptop) and Jane's device 14000B (e.g., a laptop), which are shown adjacent to one another in the figure to show the concurrent state of each device, including the user interfaces and inputs at each device. John's device 14000A includes a display 14001A, one or more cameras 14002A, one or more microphones 14003A (also referred to as mic 14003A), a keyboard 14004A, a trackpad 14005A, and one or more speakers 14007A. Jane's device 14000B includes a display 14001B, one or more cameras 14002B, one or more microphones 14003B (also referred to as mic 14003B), a keyboard 14004B, a trackpad 14005B, and one or more speakers 14007B. John's device 14000A is similar to Jane's device 14000B. As explained above, reference numbers may include the letter "A" to refer to elements of John's device, the letter "B" to refer to elements of Jane's device, or no letter to refer to elements of one or both devices. In some embodiments, device 14000 includes one or more features of devices 100, 300, 500, and/or 6000. In some embodiments, some of the elements shown in the figures are shown having different sizes for clarity and may therefore not be drawn to scale.

In the embodiments provided herein, John's device 14000A can be described as performing a set of functions associated with the shared content session, and Jane's device 14000B can be described as performing a different set of functions associated with the shared content session. These descriptions are not intended to limit the functions performed by each device, but rather are provided to illustrate various aspects and embodiments of the shared content session. Thus, unless otherwise specified, functions described as being performed by John's device 14000A can be similarly performed by Jane's device 14000B and other participants in the shared content session. Similarly, functions described as being performed by Jane's device 14000B can be similarly performed by John's device 14000A and other participants in the shared content session, unless otherwise specified.

Unless otherwise noted, device 14000 can participate in a shared content session, including screen sharing and/or sharing synchronized content, in a manner similar to that described above with respect to Figures 6A-6EQ. For brevity, the various operations or features described above with respect to participating in a shared content session will not be repeated below. For example, various notifications (e.g., 6028, 6072, 6086, 6098, 6120, 6124, 6200, 6210, 6226, 6228, 6230, 6244, 6248, 6250, 6260, 6262, 6270, 6272, 6276, 6280, 6282, 6286, 6288, 6290, 6292, 6300, 6312, 6316, 6320, 6344, 6368, 6370, 6374, 6378, 6380, 6386, 6400, 6406, 6428, 6440, 6436, 6450, and/or 6452) that may be displayed during a shared content session may not be shown in Figures 14A-14AG. In addition, some of the applications and displayed elements discussed with respect to Figures 14A-14AG are similar to the applications and displayed elements discussed with respect to Figures 6A-6EQ. For example, the control areas (e.g., 14045) and pills (e.g., 14040 and/or 14104) described with respect to Figures 14A-14AG are similar to the control areas (e.g., 6015) and pills (e.g., 6020 and/or 6021) described with respect to Figures 6A-6EQ.

14A-14D show an example embodiment in which John initiates a shared content session for members of a group of climbers. In FIG. 14A, John's device 14000A and Jane's device 14000B are not in a shared content session. John's device 14000A displays a desktop 14010 having a message window 14012, a TV app window 14014, a status bar 14020A, and a dock 14025A. The dock 14025A includes a dynamic area 14025A-1 in which app icons are displayed to indicate applications that are open and/or in use on John's device 14000A. In FIG. 14A, a message app icon 14022 and a TV app icon 14024 are displayed in the dynamic area 14025A-1 because these applications are currently open (e.g., as indicated by the display of the message window 14012 and the TV app window 14014).

The message window 14012 shows a message conversation with members of the climber group and includes a shared content session affordance 14016 that is selectable to initiate a shared content session with the climber group. John selects the shared content session affordance 14016 via input 14018 (e.g., a mouse click).

Jane's device 14000B displays a desktop with a browser window 14030, a status bar 14020B, and a dock 14025B with a dynamic region 14025B-1. In FIG. 14A, as indicated by the display of browser window 14030, a browser application is currently open, so a browser application icon 14032 is displayed in dynamic region 14025B-1.

In response to John selecting the shared content session affordance 14016, a shared content session is initiated for the group of climbers. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 14B, the shared content session is enabled via a shared app that is launched in response to the input 14018. Thus, John's device 14000A displays a shared app icon 14052 in the dynamic area 14025A-1 of the dock.

In FIG. 14B, John's device 14000A displays a sharing pill 14040A within a status bar 14020A, indicating that John's device 14000A is participating in a shared content session. The message window 14012 is updated to display a dynamic graphic 14034 (similar to dynamic graphic 6010) that provides dynamic information about the shared content session, including a current status that has been communicated to the climber group via a messaging application, indicating that three people have been invited to join the shared content session. In addition, John's device 14000A displays a shared content session control area 14045A (similar to control area 6015) that includes a control area status area 14045A-1 and various options that are selectable to control the operation, parameters, and/or settings of the shared content session. The status area 14045A-1 presents information associated with the shared content session, indicating that three people are currently invited to join the shared content session. Control area 14045A also includes a message option, a microphone option 14045A-6, a camera option 14045A-7, and a share option 14045A-8. Microphone option 14045A-6 displays a control for selecting a microphone device to be used for the shared content session and, in some embodiments, is selectable to enable or disable an audio channel for the shared content session. Camera option 14045A-7 displays a control for selecting a camera device to be used for the shared content session and, in some embodiments, is selectable to initiate a video conference session with participants in the shared content session. Share option 14045A-8 is selectable to display controls for sharing content with participants in the shared content session. In some embodiments, share pill 14040A has a highlighted appearance (as shown in FIG. 14B) when control area 14045A is displayed.

In FIG. 14B, Jane's device 14000B displays a message notification 14054 inviting Jane to join a shared content session with the group of climbers. The notification 14054 includes a join option 14056 that is selectable to join the shared content session. In FIG. 14B, Jane selects the join option 14056 via input 14058 (e.g., a mouse click) to join the shared content session.

FIG. 14C shows John's device 14000A in response to an input 14046 (e.g., a click input) on the microphone option 14045A-6 of FIG. 14B after Jane and Ryan have joined the shared content session. In response to Jane and Ryan joining the shared content session, John's device displays a notification 14062 informing John that Jane and Ryan have joined the shared content session and updates the control area status area 14045A-1 and dynamic graphic 14034 to indicate that the three are active in the shared content session. In response to the input 14046, John's device displays selectable options 14064 for selecting a microphone source for the shared content session.

In FIG. 14C, John speaks to Jane and Ryan over the audio channel that is active for the shared content session, as indicated by input audio 14060A. Jane's device outputs audio from John (e.g., using speaker 14007B), as indicated by output audio 14070B. Jane's device 14000B is now participating in the shared content session and therefore displays a share pill 14040B and control area 14045B. A shared application is launched on Jane's device, as indicated by a shared app icon 14066 that is displayed with a temporary animated (e.g., jumping) appearance within the dynamic area 14025B-1 of the dock.

In FIG. 14D, Jane speaks to the group of climbers as indicated by input audio 14060B on Jane's device 14000B and output audio 14070A on John's device (e.g., output using speaker 14007A). John's device displays option 14068 in response to input 14048 (e.g., click input) on camera option 14045A-7 in FIG. 14B. Option 14068 is selectable to select a camera source for the shared content session. On Jane's device, control area 14045B was automatically removed after a predetermined amount of time. Jane selects share pill 14040B via input 14072 (e.g., click input) to redisplay control area 14045B as shown in FIG. 14E.

14E-14J show an exemplary embodiment in which John shares his screen with members of a group of climbers. FIG. 14E shows John's device 14000A in response to an input 14050 (e.g., a click input) on the share option 14045A-8. When the share option 14045A-8 is selected, the control area 14045A expands to display additional controls for sharing content in the shared content session. The window option 14074 may be selected to share the content of a particular window with the participants of the shared content session. In some embodiments, the window option 14074 has an appearance that depicts a generic application window. In some embodiments, the window option 14074 has an appearance that depicts one of the application windows currently displayed on John's device 14000A. The screen option 14076 may be selected to share the content of the display screen or desktop with the participants of the shared content session. In some embodiments, the screen option 14076 has an appearance that depicts a generic desktop. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 14E, screen option 14076 has an appearance that depicts a representation of the current desktop on John's device.

As shown in FIG. 14E, when the share option 14045A-8 is selected, media playback controls 14078 and 14080 are displayed in the control area 14045A. The media playback controls are selectable to control whether media content (e.g., music, movies, TV shows, videos) is shared with the participants of the shared content session when it is played on John's device 14000A during the shared content session. When the media playback control 14078 is selected or enabled, the media played on John's device 14000A during the shared content session is shared with the participants of the shared content session (e.g., by instructing the participating devices to separately access their respective media content for playback on their respective participating devices (e.g., from a remote server and/or using an application local to each device)). When the media playback control 14080 is selected or enabled, the media played on John's device 14000A during sharing is not shared with the participants of the shared content session (e.g., the content is played privately on John's device 14000A).

In FIG. 14E, John selects screen option 14076 via input 14082 (e.g., click input) to initiate the process for sharing screen content in a shared content session, as shown in FIG. 14F. In FIG. 14F, John's device 14000A is connected to monitor 14084, which is currently displaying browser window 14086. John can therefore select between two screens to share with the group of climbers: the screen of John's laptop (e.g., device 14000A) or the screen of monitor 14084. Because the browser application is open to display browser window 14086, a browser app icon 14094 is displayed in dynamic area 14025A-1 of dock 14025A.

In FIG. 14F, John's device 14000A displays prompt 14093 over screen option 14076, prompting John to select which screen to share. To select a screen for sharing, John hovers his cursor over the screen, which causes John's device 14000A to highlight the screen and display an affordance for selecting the screen for sharing. For example, in FIG. 14F, John hovers cursor 14092 over desktop 14010 (corresponding to the screen on John's laptop), and John's device 14000A displays highlight 14088 and share affordance 14090. Selecting share affordance 14090 selects desktop 14010 for sharing. Similarly, FIG. 14G shows John hovering cursor 14100 over the screen of monitor 14084, and John's device 14000A displays highlight 14096 and share affordance 14098. Selecting the share affordance 14098 selects the screen of the monitor 14084 for sharing. In Figures 14F and 14G, Jane's device 14000B continues to display the browser window 14030 and the control area 14045B.

14H illustrates John and Jane's devices 14000 in response to John selecting the share affordance 14090 of FIG. 14F (e.g., by clicking with cursor 14092). In this embodiment, John has selected his laptop screen (e.g., desktop 14010) to be shared with the climbers group. In response to selecting the share affordance 14090, John's device 14000A begins transmitting the contents of the desktop 14010 to the members of the climbers group. In some embodiments, John's device 14000A displays a countdown before sharing the selected screen. In some embodiments, the countdown is displayed on the desktop 14010. In some embodiments, the countdown is displayed in place of prompt 14093. In some embodiments, the countdown is selectable to cancel the request to share the screen content.

When screen sharing begins, content located on John's desktop, such as message window 14012 and TV app window 14014, is shared with members of the climber group. In some embodiments, some items displayed on John's desktop are optionally not included in the screen share. For example, control area 14045A is displayed on desktop 14010 in some examples, but is not shared as part of the content of John's screen. In some embodiments, status bar 14020A is not included in the shared content. In some embodiments, dock 14025A is not included in the shared content. In some embodiments, auxiliary user interface objects, such as popovers, menus, system messages, etc., are not included in the shared content.

In FIG. 14H, John's device 14000A updates dynamic graphic 14034 to indicate that the climbers are viewing John's screen in a shared content session, and displays screen sharing pill 14104 as an indication to John that the content of his screen is being shared via the shared content session. John selects screen sharing pill 14104 via input 14106, displaying control area 14045A, as shown in FIG. 14I.

A dotted box 14102 is shown in the figures, including FIG. 14H, to represent the boundaries of the content selected for sharing in a shared content session. In FIG. 14H, the dotted box 14102 corresponds to John's desktop 14010, which is being shared with the climbers group. The dotted box 14102 is not displayed on John's device 14000A, but rather is shown in the figures as a visual aid to clarify the boundaries of the content selected for sharing.

When John's screen is shared with the climber group, the participant devices in the shared content session begin to display a real-time representation of John's shared screen. For example, in FIG. 14H, Jane's device 14000B displays a screen sharing window 14108 that includes a representation 14014' of John's TV app window 14014 and a representation 14012' of John's message window 14012 that is being shared in the shared content session. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 14H, the screen sharing window 14108 is displayed in the background (behind the browser window 14030) on Jane's device 14000B, allowing Jane to continue to interact with the browser window 14030 or anything else she may be viewing on her screen. In addition to displaying the screen sharing window 14108, Jane's device, in some embodiments, indicates that content has been shared, for example, by displaying a notification 14110 and/or animating a shared app icon 14112. Notification 14110 notifies Jane that John has started sharing his screen in a shared content session with the group of climbers. In some embodiments, Jane's device 14000B brings screen sharing window 14108 to the foreground in response to input 14116 (e.g., click input) on screen sharing window 14108, input 14118 (e.g., click input) on notification 14110, or input 14114 (e.g., click input) on shared app icon 14112.

In FIG. 14I, John's device 14000A displays control area 14045A in response to input 14106. Control area 14045A includes an updated status area 14045A-1 indicating that the climber group is viewing John's screen. In addition, control area 14045A is updated to include a share preview 14124, which includes a real-time depiction of the content being shared from John's device (e.g., John's screen). In FIG. 14I, John drags message window 14012 to monitor 14084 via click-and-drag input 14122 and drags browser window 14086 from monitor 14084 to desktop 14010 via click-and-drag input 14120.

In FIG. 14I, Jane's device 14000B displays a screen sharing window 14108 in the foreground in response to any of the inputs 14116, 14118, and 14114. The shared content is a real-time representation of the content depicted on John's screen, but in some embodiments, visual changes are made to emphasize to the user that the content being displayed (at the receiving device) is the shared content and not content from the user's device. For example, as shown in FIG. 14I, the window on John's device includes a window control 14126 that is selectable to adjust the display state (e.g., close, maximize, minimize, shrink) of the corresponding window (e.g., message window 14012). However, Jane's device 14000B displays the window control with a grayed-out appearance 14128 in the screen sharing window 14108. This provides an indication to Jane that the window is not adjustable because she is viewing the window displayed on John's shared screen.

In FIG. 14I, Jane selects control area status area 14045B-1 via input 14130 (e.g., click input). In response, Jane's device 14000B displays listings 14142 including a list of climber members with an indication of whether each member is participating in a shared content session, as well as an option to add additional contacts to the group, as shown in FIG. 14J.

FIG. 14J shows John and Jane's devices 14000 after John has moved the message window 14012 and the browser window 14086. Thus, the browser window 14086 is displayed on John's desktop 14010 and the message window 14012 is displayed on the monitor 14084. The share preview 14124 and the screen sharing window 14108 are updated in real time to show the changes on the screen displayed on John's desktop 14010. The browser window 14086 includes a window control 14132 which is shown with a grayed out appearance 14134 on the representation 14086' of the browser window 14086 in the screen sharing window 14108 on Jane's device 14000B.

John can use the shared preview 14124 to modify the screen being shared. For example, when John hovers cursor 14136 over the shared preview 14124, John's device 14000A displays a change shared screen affordance 14138. If John selects affordance 14138, John's device 14000A prompts John to select a screen for display, similar to the embodiments described above with respect to Figures 14F and 14G. In some embodiments, John's device prompts John to select a screen for display in response to selecting (e.g., clicking) the shared preview 14124.

In FIG. 14J, John stops sharing his screen by selecting share option 14045A-8 via input 14140 (e.g., a click input). Jane's device 14000B therefore stops displaying screen sharing window 14108, as shown in FIG. 14K.

FIGS. 14K-14U show an example embodiment in which John shares a window with members of a group of climbers. In FIG. 14K, control area 14045A displays window option 14074 and screen option 14076, as described above with respect to FIG. 14E. John selects window option 14074 via input 14144 (e.g., a click input) to initiate the process for sharing a window in a shared content session, as shown in FIG. 14L. In some embodiments, John's device 14000A displays the embodiment shown in FIG. 14K in response to detecting input 14140 of FIG. 14J.

In response to the input 14144, John's device 14000A displays a prompt 14146 prompting John to select which window to share for the shared content session. In FIG. 14L, John's device displays three windows (two on the laptop and one on the monitor 14084), any of which can be shared in the shared content session. To select a window for sharing, John hovers his cursor over the window, which causes John's device 14000A to highlight the window and display an affordance for selecting the window for sharing. For example, in FIG. 14L, John hovers his cursor 14152 over the TV app window 14014, and John's device 14000A displays a highlight 14148 and a share affordance 14150. Selecting the highlighted window 14014 brings the window to the foreground so that the share affordance 14150 can be selected.

FIG. 14M shows John's device 14000A displaying the TV app window 14014 in the foreground after clicking on the highlighted window 14014 of FIG. 14L and moving cursor 14158 to overlay it on browser window 14086, which is now positioned behind the TV app window 14014. Again, John's device 14000A displays a highlight 14154 and a share affordance 14156 on the browser window 14086 while hovering over it. John clicks on the highlighted window 14086 via cursor 14158 to move the highlighted window to the foreground, as shown in FIG. 14N. John then selects the share affordance 14156 via input 14160 (e.g., click input) to begin sharing the browser window 14086 with the group of climbers, as shown in FIG. 14O.

In FIG. 14O, John's device 14000A is sharing a browser window 14086 with a group of climbers. Thus, control area 14045A is updated to indicate that John is sharing his browser, as shown in control area status area 14045A-1 and preview 14162, which displays a real-time representation of the window being shared. Control area 14045A also includes icon 14164, which indicates that the shared window is from a browser app.

When a particular window is not shared, the window is displayed with a window control, such as window control 14132 shown on browser window 14086 in FIG. 14N. However, when a window is shared, John's device 14000A changes the appearance of the shared window by replacing window control 14132 with a shared status affordance 14166. Shared status affordance 14166 is selectable to display additional controls for a shared content session, as described in more detail below, and serves as a visual reminder to John that the corresponding window is being shared in a shared content session.

Jane's device 14000B displays a notification 14168, an animated sharing app icon 14052, and a shared content window 14170. The notification 14168 informs Jane that John has started sharing his browser in a shared content session. Jane's device 14000B displays the shared content window 14170 in the background behind Jane's browser window 14030. The shared content window 14170 is similar to the screen sharing window 14108, except that the shared content window 14170 displays the shared content of a single window rather than the shared content of a screen. In FIG. 14O, the shared content window 14170 displays a representation 14086' of the browser window 14086. Jane selects the shared content window 14170 via input 14172 (e.g., click input) to bring the shared content window 14170 to the foreground, as shown in FIG. 14P.

Jane's device 14000B shows a shared content window 14170 in the foreground in response to the input 14172. The shared content window 14170 shows a representation 14086' of the browser window 14086. However, in the representation shown in the shared content window 14170, the share status affordance is shown with a grayed out appearance 14176, indicating to Jane that she is looking at a window that is shared with her device, rather than a window that she is sharing with other participants in the shared content session (in other words, indicating that Jane's device 14000B is receiving the shared window and is not sharing a window).

14P-14W show example embodiments in which the shared content is manipulated (e.g., resized and/or moved) by a sharing device (e.g., John's device 14000A) and/or a receiving device (e.g., Jane's device 14000B). In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 14P-14W, the shared content is an application window. However, some aspects of the embodiments shown in these figures are applicable when the shared content is a screen. For example, the manipulation of the shared content at the receiving device (including the display of chrome, as described below) is applicable to embodiments in which the shared content received at the device is an application window and to embodiments in which the shared content received at the device is a shared screen.

In FIG. 14P, John resizes (enlarges) browser window 14086 via input 14174 (e.g., click-and-drag input). FIG. 14Q shows browser window 14086 and shared content window 14170 with enlarged size in response to John resizing browser window 14086 in FIG. 14P. In some embodiments, when the devices are receiving the shared content, the displayed representation of the shared content may automatically resize in response to the resizing of the shared content at the sharing device. For example, in FIG. 14P and 14Q, John's device 14000A resizes shared browser window 14086 and Jane's device 14000B automatically resizes shared content window 14170 based on the changed size of browser window 14086. In FIG. 14P, dashed line 14180 represents the display size of browser window 14086 before it is enlarged, and dashed line 14182 represents the display size of shared content window 14170 before it is enlarged. Dashed lines 14180 and 14182, and similar dashed lines described below, are not displayed on the respective device 14000, but rather are shown in the figure as a visual aid to indicate the changed size of the displayed window.

In some embodiments, Jane's device 14000B displays additional information and controls for manipulating the display of the shared content window 14170. The information and controls are displayed as part of chrome 14185, which in some embodiments is displayed adjacent to the shared content window 14170, as shown in FIG. 14Q. Information 14185-1 provides additional context about the shared content. For example, in FIG. 14Q, information 14185-1 indicates that Jane's device is viewing John's window with a group of climbers. Chrome 14185 also includes window control 14185-2 that can be selected to adjust the display state of the shared content window 14170. For example, window control 14185-2 can be selected to close, minimize, enlarge, and/or reduce the size of the shared content window 14170. The chrome includes zoom control 14185-3 that can be selected to adjust the display zoom level of the content shown in the shared content window 14170. The chrome also includes a size lock affordance 14185-4 that is selectable to enable or disable automatic resizing of the shared content window 14170 in response to resizing of the window on the shared device. In FIG. 14Q, the size lock affordance is shown in a disabled or unlocked state, meaning that Jane's device 14000B will automatically resize the shared content window 14170 in response to corresponding resizing of the shared window (e.g., browser window 14086) on John's device 14000A.

In some embodiments, Jane's device 14000B does not display chrome 14185 unless certain conditions are met, such as, for example, input is detected in the shared content window 14170, or the shared content window 14170 is selected, is within a particular size range, needs to be resized, or other relevant criteria is met. In FIG. 14Q, Jane's device 14000B displays chrome 14185, for example, because Jane's cursor is positioned in a corner of the shared content window 14170.

In FIG. 14Q, Jane slightly resizes the shared content window 14170 via input 14184 (e.g., a click-and-drag input). In some embodiments, resizing the shared content window 14170 automatically enables or locks the size lock affordance 14185-4, as described in more detail below.

As shown in FIG. 14Q, after John resizes browser window 14086, cursor 14178 is positioned over the refresh affordance in browser window 14086 by hovering over it, and remains positioned over the refresh affordance for at least an amount of time that causes John's device 14000A to display popover 14186, as shown in FIG. 14R. Although John's device shares browser window 14086 with members of the climber group, auxiliary user interface objects such as popover 14186 are not included in the shared content. Thus, a representation of popover 14186 is not displayed in shared content window 14170, as shown in FIG. 14R.

In FIG. 14R, the shared content window 14170 and, by association, the chrome 14185 are reduced in size in response to the input 14184 of FIG. 14Q, as indicated by dashed line 14188. In addition, as shown in FIG. 14R, the size lock affordance 14185-4 is enabled or locked. Thus, if John resizes the browser window 14086, Jane's device 14000B does not resize the shared content window 14170 accordingly.

For example, in FIG. 14S, John resizes (e.g., shrinks) browser window 14086 via input 14190 (e.g., click-and-drag input). In FIG. 14T, John's device 14000A shrinks the size of browser window 14086, as indicated by dashed line 14192. However, Jane's device 14000B does not adjust the size of the shared content window 14170. Jane's device does not adjust the size of the shared content window 14170, but scales the size of the representation 14086' according to the reduced size of browser window 14086 at John's device 14000A. In some embodiments, when the representation of the shared content is reduced, Jane's device displays filler content 14196 (e.g., black bars) to fill at least a portion of the shared content window 14170 that is not occupied by the shared content caused by shrinking the representation of the shared content. In some embodiments, when the size lock affordance 14185-4 is enabled, Jane's device does not scale the representation of the shared content or adjust the size of the shared content window 14170 in response to changes in the size of the shared content on the shared device.

In FIG. 14T, John shifts browser window 14086 partially off-screen via input 14194 (e.g., a click-and-drag input). In this embodiment, monitor 14084 is turned off or otherwise unavailable. Thus, as browser window 14086 moves off-screen, John's device 14000A shifts the position of shared status affordance 14166 on browser window 14086 to keep shared status affordance 14166 on-screen, as shown in FIG. 14U. In FIG. 14U, Jane's device 14000B displays the entire representation 14086' of browser window 14086 (including displaying a greyed-out shared status affordance 14176 in its default location) even though browser window 14086 is partially off-screen and therefore not fully displayed on John's device. In some embodiments, Jane's device 14000B displays the entire representation 14086' of the browser window 14086 while displaying the shared status affordance 14176 greyed out in a shifted position on the representation 14086' of the browser window 14086. In some embodiments, Jane's device displays the representation 14086' of the browser window 14086 as it appears on John's device 14000A: partially visible with the shared status affordance 14176 greyed out in a shifted position.

In FIG. 14U, size lock affordance 14185-4 is unlocked in response to input 14198 (e.g., a click input) of FIG. 14T. When size lock affordance 14185-4 is unlocked, Jane's device 14000B automatically resizes shared content window 14170 to match the display size of representation 14086' of browser window 14086, as indicated by dashed line 14200 in FIG. 14U.

Figures 14V-14W show an example embodiment in which Jane's device 14000B displays Chrome 14185 in response to John resizing the browser window beyond the available display area on Jane's device 14000B.

In FIG. 14V, John enlarges browser window 14086 via input 14202. Jane's device 14000B has a split screen view that does not allow content in region 14206 or region 14208 to be displayed beyond border 14204. Jane's device 14000B displays shared content window 14170 in region 14208.

In FIG. 14W, John's device 14000A displays a browser window 14086 that is enlarged to occupy a portion of John's display that is larger than area 14208 on Jane's device 14000B. Jane's device 14000B therefore enlarges the shared content window 14170 until it occupies area 14208 and scales a representation 14086' of the browser window 14086 based on the change in size relative to the browser window 14086. Because Jane's device 14000B cannot resize the shared content window 14170 to match the proportions of the browser window 14086, Jane's device displays chrome 14185, thereby providing a control (e.g., zoom control 14185-3) for Jane to adjust (e.g., scale) the representation 14086' of the browser window 14086.

14X-14Z illustrate an embodiment in which John uses share status affordance 14166 to initiate sharing of a different window. In FIG. 14X, John's device 14000A displays a browser window 14086 and a music app window 14216. Because the music app is open, a music app icon 14218 is displayed in the dynamic area 14025A-1 of the dock. John's device is now sharing the browser window 14086 and displays a menu 14212 in response to an input 14210 on the share status affordance 14166. The menu 14212 includes various options for controlling aspects of the shared content session, including, for example, stopping the shared content session, changing the shared window, sharing the entire display screen, closing the shared window, minimizing the shared window, entering or exiting full screen mode, moving the shared window, and transferring the window to a different device. In FIG. 14X, John selects option 14212-1 to change the sharing window via input 14214.

In FIG. 14Y, John's device 14000A enters a window selection mode similar to that described above with respect to FIGS. 14L-14N. John selects the music app window 14216 and brings it to the foreground, as shown in FIG. 14Y. John's device displays highlight 14220 and share affordance 14222. John selects the music app window 14216 for sharing by selecting the share affordance 14222 via input 14224. John's device 14000A then begins sharing the music app window 14216 with the climber group, as shown in FIG. 14Z. Jane's device 14000B displays a content sharing window 14228 (similar to content sharing window 14170) that includes a representation 14216' of the music app window 14216.

14AA-14AG show an example embodiment in which John shares media content with a group of climbers in a shared content session. In FIG. 14AA, John's device 14000A displays a message window 14012 and a TV app window 14014. The TV app window 14014 is in the foreground, and John's device displays a notification 14230 informing John that he can view content with the group of climbers via a shared content session. The TV app window includes a playback affordance 14232 that is selectable to initiate playback of "First Episode." "First Episode" can be added for playback in the shared content session, as indicated by glyph 14234. Media playback option 14078 is currently enabled. Thus, selecting media (e.g., "First Episode") for playback on John's device causes the participant devices in the shared content session to also play the selected media on their respective devices, synchronizing the playback with the other participants in the shared content session.

In FIG. 14AA, John selects playback affordance 14232 via input 14236 to begin playback of "First Episode." In FIG. 14AB, John's device displays a media window 14240A for playing "First Episode." Media window 14240A includes playback controls 14242A and a selectable media transfer option 14242A-1 to play the media on a different device, such as a TV. John's device outputs audio 14244A of "First Episode" (e.g., using speaker 14007A) and displays control area 14045A indicating that the group of climbers is watching "First Episode." Media playback options 14078 and 14080 are replaced by a "Play Together" toggle 14238, which is selectable to stop playback of media in the shared content session.

In response to John initiating playback of "First Episode" for the climbers group, Jane's device 14000B launches a TV app (as indicated by animated TV app icon 14248), displays media window 14240B, and begins playback of "First Episode" on Jane's device. Jane's device is shown outputting audio 14244B for "First Episode" (e.g., using speaker 14007B). Jane pauses playback for the climbers group via input 14246.

In FIG. 14AC, "First Episode" is paused on John and Jane's devices 14000. Jane's device displays a notification 14252 indicating that Jane has paused the climber group's "First Episode." In some embodiments, John's device optionally displays a similar notification. John resumes playing "First Episode" via input 14250.

In FIG. 14AD, John's device 14000A displays a message window 14012 while playback of "First Episode" resumes. John's device also displays a notification 14258 indicating that John has resumed the Climbers group program. Notification 14260 is similar and is displayed on Jane's device 14000B. John selects videoconferencing affordance 14256 via input 14254 to begin a videoconference with the Climbers group while watching "First Episode."

In FIG. 14AE, John's device 14000A displays a video conference window 14262A showing video feeds 14264 and 14266 for Jane and Ryan, respectively, and a camera preview 14268. The video conference window 14262A also includes various controls, including a shared content session control 14270, which is selectable to start or end a shared content session with the group of climbers from the video conference app. Similarly, Jane's device 14000B displays a video conference window 14262B showing video feeds 14274 and 14276 for John and Ryan, respectively, and a camera preview 14278. Jane, John, and Ryan can interact with each other via the video conference app while sharing content together via the shared content session. John speaks to the group, as indicated by input audio 14060A and output audio 14070B.

In FIG. 14AF, John deselects the "Play Together" toggle 14238 via input 14280 to stop playing "First Episode" on John's device 14000A, while playback continues for the remaining members of the climber group.

14AG, the shared content session between John's device 14000A and the climbers group continues even though John's device is no longer playing "First Episode" with the other members of the climbers group. Jane's device displays notification 14282 indicating that John has stopped watching "First Episode." On John's device, control region status area 14045A-1 indicates that the climbers group is watching "First Episode" even though John's device is no longer playing the program. In some embodiments, control region status area 14045A-1 can be selected to resume playing "First Episode" with the climbers group at the same playback time as the other members of the climbers group.

15 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for adding content to a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 14000A), according to some embodiments. Method 1500 includes one or more output generating components (e.g., 14001A, 14001B, 14007A, and/or 14007B) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 14001A, 14002A, 14003A, 14004A, 14005A, 14001B, 14002B, 14003C, 14004D, 14005D, 14006A, 14007D, 14008A, 14009A, 14001B, 14002C, 14003D, 14004D, 14005D, 14006A, 14007B, 14008B, 14009A, 14001C, 14001D, 14002D, 14003D, 14004D, 14005D, 14006A, 14007B, 14008B, 14009B, 14001C, 14001D, 14001D, 14002D, 14003D, 14004D, 14005D, 14006A, 14007B, 14008B, 14009B, 14 14000A and/or 14000B) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with a computer system (e.g., 14000A and/or 14000B) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1500 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1500 provides an intuitive way to add content to a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to add content to a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to add content to a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

While a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 14000A) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000B) is active, and while multiple application interface areas (e.g., 14012 and/or 14014) (e.g., application windows) including at least a portion of a first application interface area (e.g., a first application window) and at least a portion of a second application interface area (e.g., 14012 or 14014) (e.g., screen sharing content) (e.g., a second application window) are simultaneously displayed (1502) on a user interface (e.g., 14010), the shared content session may include a plurality of screen sharing areas (e.g., 14000B) between the computer system and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000B). The system (e.g., 14000A) outputs individual content (e.g., synchronized content and/or screen sharing content), and the computer system (e.g., 14000A) receives a set of one or more inputs (e.g., a selection of 14144 or 14074) (e.g., a selection of a share affordance) corresponding to a request to add an application interface (e.g., content displayed on the computer system (e.g., an application window of an application running on the computer system)) (e.g., 14012 or 14014) to the shared content session (e.g., the set of one or more inputs includes an input corresponding to a request to add the application interface to the shared content session) via one or more input devices (e.g., 14001A, 14002A, 14003A, 14004A, and/or 14005A) (1504).

In response to receiving a first input in the set of one or more inputs (and prior to adding the displayed application interface to the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays (1506) a first graphical interface object (e.g., 14150 or 14156) (e.g., a shared affordance associated with the first application window) at a location in the user interface visually associated with (e.g., displayed adjacent to, grouped together with) the first application interface region, selectable to add the first application interface region to the shared content session without adding the second application interface region to the shared content session, and the first graphical interface object is not visually associated with the second application interface region (e.g., the first graphical interface object is not displayed adjacent to and/or grouped together with the second application interface region). Displaying a first graphical interface object at a location within the user interface visually associated with the first application interface region in response to receiving a first input in the set of one or more inputs provides additional controls for adding content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the first application interface region, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting a user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing a user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the first graphical interface object (e.g., 14150 or 14156) includes displaying at least a portion of the first graphical interface object at a location on the first application interface area (e.g., a location that was displayed prior to receiving the set of one or more inputs corresponding to the request to add the application interface to the shared content session) (e.g., the share affordance is displayed overlaid on the first application window). Displaying at least a portion of the first graphical interface object at a location on the first application interface area provides additional controls for adding content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the first application interface area, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 14000A) receives an input (e.g., 14152 or 14158) (e.g., hover input, and/or cursor hovering) via one or more input devices (e.g., 14001A, 14002A, 14003A, 14004A, and/or 14005A). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the input, in accordance with a determination that the input is directed to a first application interface region (e.g., 14014 or 14086) (e.g., a cursor is hovering over a first application window), the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays a first application interface region (e.g., 14014) having a visual effect (e.g., highlighting, shading, bolding, outlining, and/or other emphasis effects), and the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays a second application interface region (e.g., 14086) having no visual effect. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the input, in accordance with a determination that the input is directed to the second application interface region (e.g., a cursor is hovering over the second application window), the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays the second application interface region (e.g., 14086) having a visual effect, and the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays the first application interface region (e.g., 14014) without the visual effect. Displaying the first or second application interface region with the visual effect provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first or second application interface region may be selected to be added to the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 14000A) receives an input (e.g., 14152 or 14158) via one or more input devices (e.g., 14001A, 14002A, 14003A, 14004A, and/or 14005A) corresponding to a selection of a first application interface area or a second application interface area (e.g., a click on a first application window or a second application window). In some embodiments, in response to receiving an input corresponding to a selection of the first application interface area or the second application interface area, while the first application interface area has a first appearance (e.g., partially visible and/or displayed in the background) corresponding to a first arrangement of the first and second application interface areas (e.g., 14000A of FIG. 14L) (e.g., the first application window is positioned behind the second application window), in accordance with a determination that the input is a selection of the first application interface area, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays the first application interface area having a second appearance (e.g., fully visible and/or displayed in the foreground) corresponding to a second arrangement of the first and second application interface areas (e.g., 14000A of FIG. 14M) that differs from the first arrangement (e.g., the first application window is positioned in front of the second application window). In some embodiments, in response to receiving an input corresponding to a selection of the first application interface area or the second application interface area, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays the second application interface area having a fourth appearance (e.g., fully displayed and/or displayed in the foreground) corresponding to the first arrangement of the first application interface area and the second application interface area (e.g., the second application window is positioned in front of the first application window) in accordance with a determination that the input is a selection of the second application interface area, while the second application interface area has a third appearance (e.g., partially displayed and/or displayed in the background) corresponding to the second arrangement of the first application interface area and the second application interface area (e.g., the second application window is positioned behind the first application window).

In some embodiments, displaying the first application interface region having a second appearance in accordance with a determination that the input is a selection of the first application interface region includes displaying the first application interface region having the second appearance without adding the first application interface region to the shared content session (e.g., 14000A of FIG. 14M) (e.g., the first application window is displayed in the foreground without adding the first application window to the shared content session). In some embodiments, displaying the second application interface region having a fourth appearance in accordance with a determination that the input is a selection of the second application interface region includes displaying the second application interface region having a fourth appearance without adding the second application interface region to the shared content session (e.g., 14000A of FIG. 14N) (e.g., the second application window is displayed in the foreground without adding the second application window to the shared content session). By displaying a first application interface region having a second appearance without adding the first application interface region to the shared content session, and displaying a second application interface region having a fourth appearance without adding the second application interface region to the shared content session, a user of the computer system can quickly and easily view the content before deciding to share the content with other users, reduce the number of inputs in the computer system that would otherwise be required to navigate to the content, and avoid accidental sharing of content in a shared content session, thereby avoiding additional calculations performed by the computer system. Reducing the number of inputs and calculations performed on the computer system improves operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and additionally reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the computer system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the first graphical interface object (e.g., a shared affordance associated with the first application window) is performed pursuant to a determination that the first application interface region is within a foreground region of the user interface (e.g., 14086 of FIG. 14N) (e.g., is a window that has a current input focus within the user interface). Displaying the first graphical interface object when the first application interface region is in the foreground region of the user interface provides additional control for adding content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the first application interface region and/or the second application interface region, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the shared affordance is not displayed over other windows that are not in the foreground area of the user interface, even if those windows are currently visible.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a first input in the set of one or more inputs, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays a third graphical interface object (e.g., 14156) (e.g., a shared affordance associated with the second application window) associated with adding the second application interface region to the shared content session (e.g., without adding the first application interface region to the shared content session) at a location in the user interface visually associated with the second application interface region (e.g., 14086), where the third graphical interface object is displayed concurrently with the first graphical interface object (e.g., 14150) and is not visually associated with the first application interface region (e.g., 14014) (e.g., the third graphical interface object is displayed concurrently with the first graphical interface object, is not displayed adjacent to the first application interface region, and/or is not grouped with the first application interface region). Displaying the second application interface region with a third graphical interface object associated with adding the second application interface region to the shared content session provides additional controls for adding content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the first application interface region and/or the second application interface region, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the share affordance is displayed for multiple windows simultaneously. In some embodiments, the share affordance is selectable when the corresponding window is not in the foreground (e.g., is positioned at least partially behind one or more other windows). In some embodiments, a shared affordance is selectable when the corresponding window is in the foreground.

In some embodiments, while a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 14000A) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000B) is active, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) receives input (e.g., 14160) via one or more input devices (e.g., 14001A, 14002A, 14003A, 14004A, and/or 14005A) directed to a first graphical interface object (e.g., 14156) (e.g., a shared affordance associated with a first application window). In response to receiving the input directed to the first graphical interface object, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) adds a first application interface region to the shared content session without adding a second application interface region to the shared content session (e.g., causing the first application interface region to be simultaneously displayed on the one or more external computer systems while the first application interface region is displayed on the computer system). Adding a first application interface region to the shared content session in response to receiving input directed to the first graphical interface object without adding a second application interface region to the shared content session improves privacy by avoiding inadvertently adding content to the shared content session.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a second input in the set of one or more inputs (e.g., a selection of a share affordance on a shared content session object), before displaying the first graphical interface object, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) simultaneously displays a first share option (e.g., 14076) (e.g., a share screen option) selectable for adding a user interface (e.g., 14010) including multiple application interface areas to the shared content session and a second share option (e.g., 14074) (e.g., a share window option) selectable for initiating a process for adding the first application interface area (e.g., 14014) or a second application interface area (e.g., 14012 or 14086) to the shared content session. Concurrently displaying a first share option selectable for adding a user interface including multiple application interface regions to a shared content session and a second share option selectable for initiating a process for adding the first application interface region or the second application interface region to the shared content session provides additional controls for adding content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for sharing the multiple application interface regions, the first application interface region, and/or the second application interface region, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, in response to receiving a selection of the first share option (e.g., 14074) or the second share option (e.g., 14076) (in some embodiments, before displaying the first graphical interface object) (in some embodiments, instead of displaying the first graphical interface object), the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays a graphical representation of a countdown until content from the computer system (e.g., 14000A) is added to the shared content session (e.g., a countdown of an amount of time (e.g., 5 seconds, 4 seconds, 3 seconds, 2 seconds) until an individual piece of content (e.g., a user interface including multiple application interface areas, the first application interface area or the second application interface area) is added to the shared content session (in some embodiments, the graphical representation of the countdown is selectable to terminate the process of adding content to the shared content session before the countdown is completed). Displaying the graphical representation of the countdown in response to receiving a selection of the first share option or the second share option provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the associated content is about to be shared in the shared content session, and provides additional controls for completing the process for adding the content to the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the countdown begins. Providing improved feedback and providing additional controls without cluttering the user interface improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 14000A) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000B) is active and the first application interface region (e.g., 14086) is in the shared content session (e.g., the first application window is displayed on the computer system while the first application window is simultaneously displayed on one or more external computer systems), the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays the first application interface region including a share status affordance (e.g., 14166) selectable to display one or more options for performing a distinct function associated with the shared content session (e.g., stop sharing the application window, change the shared application window, and/or share the entire UI (display screen)). Displaying a first application interface region including a share status affordance selectable to display one or more options for performing a distinct function associated with the shared content session provides additional control for managing the display of content being shared in the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first application interface region is being shared, and avoids accidental input associated with controls that are displayed when the share status affordance is not displayed (e.g., minimize/maximize/close a window). Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, at least a portion of the shared status affordance is displayed at a location within the first application interface region that includes a first set of one or more controls (e.g., 14132) (e.g., a window close control, a window minimize control, and/or a window maximize control) selectable to modify a display of the first application interface region when the first application interface region is not added to the shared content session. In some embodiments, when the first application interface region is not added to the shared content session, the first application interface region includes the first set of one or more controls, and when the first application interface region is added to the shared content session, the first set of one or more controls are replaced with the shared status affordance. Displaying a shared status affordance at a location within the first application interface region that includes a first set of one or more controls selectable to modify the display of the first application interface region when the first application interface region has not been added to a shared content session provides additional control for managing the display of content being shared in a shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first application interface region is being shared, and avoids accidental input associated with controls that are displayed when the shared status affordance is not displayed (e.g., minimize/maximize/close a window). Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while the computer system (e.g., 14000A) is displaying a first application interface region including a shared status affordance, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) receives a selection (e.g., 14210) of a shared status affordance (e.g., 14166). In response to receiving the selection of the shared status affordance, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays one or more options (e.g., 14212 and/or 14212-1) for performing a distinct function associated with the shared content session (e.g., stop sharing the application window, change the shared application window, and/or share the entire UI (display screen)) (and/or one or more options for modifying the display of the first application interface region, e.g., options corresponding to functions of a first set of one or more controls, such as closing the application window, minimizing the application window, maximizing the application window, entering full screen mode, moving the application window to a location on the screen, and/or moving the display of the application window to a different device). Displaying one or more options for performing a distinct function associated with the shared content session in response to receiving a selection of the shared status affordance provides additional control for managing the display of the content being shared in the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that a first application interface region is being shared, and avoids accidental input associated with controls that are displayed when the shared status affordance is not displayed (e.g., minimize/maximize/close a window). Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays a first application interface region (e.g., 14086) including a shared status affordance (e.g., 14166), the shared status affordance is displayed at a first location (e.g., location 14166 in FIG. 14S) within the first application interface region (e.g., located in the upper left corner of the first application window), and while the first application interface is displayed at a first location (e.g., location 14086 in FIG. 14S) within the user interface, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) receives a set of one or more inputs (e.g., 14190 and/or 14194) corresponding to a request to move the display location of the first application interface region. In some embodiments, in response to receiving a set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to move a display location of the first application interface area, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) moves at least a portion of the first application interface area to a second location within the user interface (e.g., location 14086 of FIG. 14T or 14U), which in accordance with a determination that moving at least a portion of the first application interface area to the second location within the user interface (e.g., 14000A of FIG. 14T) causes the first location within the first application interface area to remain disposed within the user interface (e.g., the first location within the first application window is not moved off-screen), the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays a shared status affordance at the first location within the first application interface area while at least a portion of the first application interface area is displayed at the second location within the user interface (e.g., moves the first application window to the second location while continuing to display the shared status affordance at the first location within the first application window). In some embodiments, in response to receiving a set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to move a display location of a first application interface region, a computer system (e.g., 14000A) may perform a process to move at least a portion of the first application interface region to a second location within the user interface, such that the first location within the first application interface region is moved outside of the user interface (e.g., 14000A of FIG. 14U) (e.g., the first location within the first application window is moved off-screen), and pursuant to a determination that moving at least a portion of the first application interface region to a second location within the user interface causes the first location within the first application interface region to be moved outside of the user interface (e.g., 14000A of FIG. 14U) (e.g., the first location within the first application window is moved off-screen). 14000A) displays the shared status affordance at a second location (e.g., location 14166 in FIG. 14U ) within the first application interface region (e.g., different (e.g., shifted, offset) from the first location within the first application window) while at least a portion of the first application interface region is displayed at a second location within the user interface (e.g., when the first application window is moved to the second location, the display location of the shared status affordance is shifted such that the shared status affordance remains displayed within the first application window even though the original location of the shared status affordance is no longer displayed). Displaying the shared status affordance at a second location within the first application interface region while at least a portion of the first application interface region is displayed at the second location within the user interface allows a user to manipulate the displayed arrangement of content on the user interface without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until an input is detected, while providing additional control for managing the display of content being shared in a shared content session. Providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, allowing the user to manipulate the placement of displayed content, improving usability of the computer system, making the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reducing power usage and improving battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 14000A) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000B) is active and a first application interface region is being added to the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 14045A-1) that includes a representation of the first application interface region (e.g., 14162) (e.g., a copy or preview of the shared first application window). Displaying a shared content session object that includes a representation of the first application interface region while a shared content session between the computer system and one or more external computer systems is active and a first application interface region is being added to the shared content session provides a privacy benefit to a user of the computer system by providing the user with feedback regarding content being output in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the shared content session object includes information associated with the shared content session and/or one or more selectable shared content session function options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a particular function associated with the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the shared content session object (e.g., 14045A) is persistently displayed over any of a number of application interface regions (e.g., 14014 and/or 14086) displayed in the user interface (e.g., 14010) (e.g., the shared content session object is always displayed over the application window, even if the application window is moved to the foreground). Persistently displaying the shared content session object over any of a number of application interface regions displayed in the user interface reduces the number of inputs in the computer system by quickly and easily providing additional control for managing the functions associated with the shared content session, and provides feedback to the user of the computer system that the shared content session is active. Providing improved feedback and reducing the number of inputs to provide additional control options improves the usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves the battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the shared content session object including a representation of the first application interface region includes displaying a representation of a shared status affordance (e.g., 14166 or 14176) displayed in the first application interface region (e.g., the representation of the shared first application window includes a representation of the shared status affordance). Displaying the representation of the shared status affordance displayed in the first application interface region provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the shared content session is active and that the first application interface region is being shared in the shared content session. Providing improved feedback improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and also reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the shared content session object (e.g., 14045A or 14085A) includes displaying a first option (e.g., 14078) selectable to enable a mode in which media content (e.g., audio and/or video content) compatible with being added to the shared content session while the shared content session is active is automatically added to the shared content session when the media content is selected for output at the computer system (e.g., 14000A) (e.g., a “group play” affordance (e.g., similar to the “group play” option 6220-1 described with respect to FIG. 6AO)). Displaying the first option selectable to enable a mode in which media content compatible with being added to the shared content session while the shared content session is active is automatically added to the shared content session provides additional control for managing content shared during the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the shared content session object (e.g., 14045A or 14085A) includes displaying a second option (e.g., 14080) (e.g., a "play just for me" affordance) selectable to enable a mode in which media content (e.g., audio and/or video content) selected for output at the computer system (e.g., 14000A) is not automatically added to the shared content session while the shared content session is active. Displaying the second option selectable to enable a mode in which media content selected for output at the computer system is not automatically added to the shared content session while the shared content session is active provides additional control for managing content shared during the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, displaying the shared content session object (e.g., 14045A or 14085A) includes displaying a selectable third option (e.g., 14238) (e.g., a "play together" toggle) to disable output (e.g., display, playback) of the media at the computer system (e.g., 14000A) during the shared content session (e.g., without removing the media from the shared content session and terminating output of the media at the one or more external computer systems). In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) detects a selection (e.g., 14280) of the third option while a shared content session between the computer system (e.g., 14000A) and the one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000B) is active, a first media content (e.g., 14240A) is being output at the computer system (e.g., 14000A), and the first media content (e.g., 14240B) is being output by the one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000B). In response to detecting a selection of the third option, the computer system (e.g., 14000A) terminates the output of the first media content at the computer system (e.g., 14000A) while the shared content session remains active (e.g., the first media content continues to be output by one or more external computer systems, or the output of the first media content at the one or more external computer systems is also terminated). Terminating the output of the first media content at the computer system while the shared content session remains active enhances the user experience of the computer system by allowing a user of the computer system to quickly end playback of the media content without also terminating the shared content session, thereby allowing the user to enjoy other features of the shared content session. Displaying a third option selectable to disable output of media at the computer system during the shared content session provides additional control for managing content shared during the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input is detected, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental inputs improves the operability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, a third option can be selected to resume output of the first media content on the computer system after terminating output of the first media content on the computer system (e.g., in response to the computer system closing an application used to output the first media content) while the shared content session remains active and the first media content continues to be output by one or more external computer systems. In some embodiments, when output of the first media content resumes, the first media content is output with an elapsed time from when the computer system ended output of the first media content (e.g., the first media playback does not resume at the time the computer system ended its output, but instead resumes at the time it is currently being output on the one or more external computer systems).

In some embodiments, the set of one or more inputs corresponding to the request to add an application interface to a shared content session includes a selection of a sharing affordance displayed in the video conference application interface (e.g., during an ongoing video conference that includes a video representation of one or more other participants in the video conference). In some embodiments, the shared content session includes participants from the video conference (e.g., participants in the video conference are invited to or automatically added to the video conference).

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 15) described above with respect to method 1500 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1600, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1500. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

Figure 16 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for displaying a representation of content in a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 14000B) in accordance with some embodiments. Method 1600 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 14000B) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 14001 and/or 14007) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensing display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 14002A, 14003A, 14004A, 14005A, 14002B, 14003B, 14004B, and/or 14005B) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1600 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1600 provides an intuitive way to display a representation of content in a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to display a representation of content in a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing users to participate in shared content sessions more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

While a shared content session between a computer system (e.g., 14000B) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000A) is active (1602), the shared content session, when active, enables the computer system (e.g., 14000B) to output individual content (e.g., synchronized content and/or screen shared content), which is output by the one or more external computer systems (e.g., 14000A), and the computer system (e.g., 14000B) receives data (1604) representing first content (e.g., 14010, 14012, 14014, or 14086) (e.g., synchronized content and/or screen shared content, or shared content) that has been selected (e.g., 14082, 14092, 14100, 14144, and/or 14160) at the external computer system (e.g., 14000A) for the shared content session (e.g., the selection was made at the external computer system). In response to receiving data representing a first content selected for the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 14000B), via an output generating component of the one or more output generating components, displays (1606) a display region (e.g., 14108 or 14170) including a representation (e.g., 14010', 14086', or 14014') of the first content (e.g., an application window including the first content) and displays (1607) a first set of one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2, 14186-3, 14187-4, 14189-5, 14190-6, 14200-7, 14200-8, 14201-9, 14202-10, 14203-20, 14204-30, 14205-40, 14206-50, 14207-60, 14208-70, 14209-8, 14301-9, 14301-9, 14302-10, 14303-11, 14304-12, 14305-13, 14306-14, 14307-14, 14308-15, 14309-16, 14401-17, 14401-18, 14401-19, 14402-20, 14403-30, 14404-30, 14405-40, 14406-50, 14407-60, 14408-70, 14409-8, 1 14H 14000B)。 Displaying 1608 a representation of the first content with one or more controls (e.g., resize controls, zoom controls, and/or size lock controls) of the first set visually associated with the representation of the first content (e.g., displayed adjacent to and/or displayed grouped together), and displaying 1610 the representation of the first content without the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area (e.g., 14000B of FIG. 14H) pursuant to a determination that a first set of criteria is met (e.g., the application window is not currently selected, the application window is within a size range, the application window is a window from a multi-window operating system (e.g., not an application UI or shared desktop of a mobile device operating system), and/or input is not directed to the application window). In accordance with a determination that the first set of criteria is not met, displaying the representation of the first content with a first set of one or more controls for controlling a visual appearance of the display area, the first set of one or more controls being visually associated with the representation of the first content, and in accordance with a determination that the first set of criteria is met, displaying the representation of the first content without the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area provides additional controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area during the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the first set of criteria is no longer met, thereby providing additional space for displaying content of other user interface areas, providing feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the display area including the representation of the first content, and avoiding accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the first set of criteria includes criteria that are met when the representation (e.g., 14010', 14086', or 14014') of the first content (e.g., 14010, 14086, or 14014) is in an unselected state (e.g., the representation of the first content is not currently selected) (e.g., the first set of one or more controls is not displayed when the representation of the first content is not selected in the computer system). Displaying the representation of the first content without the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area pursuant to a determination that the representation of the first content is in an unselected state provides additional controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area during a shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the representation of the first content is no longer in an unselected state, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the display area including the representation of the first content, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the representation of the first content is selected in the computer system by input (e.g., clicking with a mouse, hovering with a cursor, tapping (e.g., on a touch-sensitive display), touching, looking, gazing, and/or focusing) directed at the representation of the first content.

In some embodiments, the first set of criteria includes criteria that are met when the size of the representation of the first content (e.g., 14010', 14086', or 14014') is within a predetermined size range (e.g., one or more controls of the first set are not displayed when the representation of the first content is within the predetermined size range). Displaying the representation of the first content without the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area pursuant to a determination that the size of the representation of the first content is within the predetermined size range provides additional controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area during a shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the size of the representation of the first content is no longer within the predetermined size range, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the display area including the representation of the first content, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental inputs improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the predetermined size range is based on an aspect ratio of the first content being output at the external computer system (e.g., the aspect ratio or one or more dimensions of the representation of the first content being output at the external computer system are the same as (or within a threshold amount of) the aspect ratio or one or more dimensions of) the representation of the first content being output at the external computer system).

In some embodiments, the first set of criteria includes criteria that are met when the representation of the first content (e.g., 14010', 14086', or 14014') is an application window of an operating system that supports the display of multiple application windows associated with separate applications (e.g., the first set of one or more controls are displayed when the representation of the first content is a displayed interface of a mobile operating system application or a shared desktop application). Displaying the representation of the first content without the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area pursuant to a determination that the representation of the first content is an application window of an operating system that supports the display of multiple application windows associated with separate applications provides additional controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area during the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the first set of criteria is no longer met, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the display area including the representation of the first content, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the first set of criteria includes criteria that are met when the representation of the first content is not an application window of an operating system that supports the display of multiple application windows associated with separate applications (e.g., if the representation of the first content is the displayed interface of a mobile operating system application or a shared desktop application, one or more controls of the first set are not displayed).

In some embodiments, the first set of criteria includes criteria that are met if the computer system (e.g., 14000B) does not detect input at the computer system (e.g., clicking with a mouse in communication with the computer system, hovering with a cursor, tapping (e.g., on a touch-sensitive display in communication with the computer system), touching, looking at, gazing at, and/or focusing) directed at the representation of the first content (e.g., if the computer system does not detect input at the computer system directed at the representation of the first content, the first set of one or more controls is not displayed). Displaying the representation of the first content without the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area pursuant to a determination that the computer system does not detect input directed to the representation of the first content provides additional controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area during the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until input directed to the representation of the first content is detected, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the display area including the representation of the first content, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system, makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting a user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing a user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, while the representation of the first content is displayed at a first size without a first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area (e.g., 14170 in FIG. 14P), a computer system (e.g., 14000B) receives (e.g., via input 14184 or 14190) data indicating a change in size of the representation of the first content from the first size to a second size (e.g., data indicating that an external computer system has changed the size of the first content). In some embodiments, in response to receiving data indicating a change in the size of the representation of the first content, and in accordance with a determination that the second size of the representation of the first content meets a second criterion (e.g., the second size exceeds a maximum size of the display area), the computer system (e.g., 14000B) displays (in some embodiments including adjusting the size of the representation of the first content) (in some embodiments without adjusting the size of the representation of the first content) a first set of one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2, 14185-3, and/or 14185-4) at a location within the display area (e.g., 14170) visually associated with the representation of the first content (e.g., 14086') (e.g., a location within the display area adjacent to the representation of the first content). Displaying a first set of one or more controls at a location within the display area visually associated with the representation of the first content in response to receiving data indicating a change in size of the representation of the first content and in accordance with a determination that a second size of the representation of the first content meets the second criterion provides additional controls for controlling a visual appearance of the display area during the shared content session without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls until the second size of the representation of the first content meets the second criterion, provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the additional displayed controls are for controlling aspects of the display area including the representation of the first content, and avoids accidental input while the additional control options are not displayed. Providing improved feedback, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface with additional displayed controls, and avoiding accidental input improves usability of the computer system and makes the user system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting a user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing a user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in response to receiving data indicating a change in size of the representation of the first content, and in accordance with a determination that the second size of the representation of the first content does not meet a second criterion (e.g., the second size does not exceed a maximum size of the display area), the display device ceases to display (in some embodiments, including adjusting the size of the representation of the first content) the first set of one or more controls at a location within the display area visually associated with the representation of the first content (e.g., a location within the display area adjacent to the representation of the first content) (in some embodiments, without adjusting the size of the representation of the first content).

In some embodiments, displaying the representation of the first content (e.g., 14086') includes displaying the representation of the first content without displaying a representation of a second set of one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2) having a valid state (e.g., controls for changing the display size of the application window (e.g., minimize window, maximize window, and/or shrink window) (e.g., different from the first set of one or more controls)). (e.g., the second set of controls are grayed out, backed up, shown as hidden, or otherwise shown as unavailable). Displaying the representation of the first content without displaying a representation of the second set of one or more controls having a valid state provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the representation of the first content is shared with the computer system and is not a representation of content available at the computer system. Providing improved feedback improves operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, a first set of one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2, 14185-3, and/or 14185-4) includes one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2) selectable to adjust the display size of the display area (e.g., minimize window, maximize window, and/or shrink window).

In some embodiments, the first set of one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2, 14185-3, and/or 14185-4) includes one or more controls (e.g., 14185-3) selectable to adjust the zoom level of the representation of the first content (e.g., zoom in, zoom out, zoom to fit, and/or zoom to actual size).

In some embodiments, a first set of one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2, 14185-3, and/or 14185-4) includes a size lock control (e.g., 14185-4) (e.g., a size lock affordance) that, when selected, prevents the size of the display area from being changed in response to input from a user sharing content in the display area (e.g., in response to receiving data at an external computer system indicating a change in size of the first content).

In some embodiments, displaying the representation of the first content (e.g., 14086') along with the first set of one or more controls (e.g., 14185-2, 14185-3, and/or 14185-4) includes displaying a graphical object (e.g., 14185) (e.g., a frame, application window chrome) adjacent to (and/or connected to) the display area (e.g., 14170) (and in some embodiments, overlaid (at least partially) on a portion of the display area), the graphical object including the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area. Displaying the graphical object including the first set of one or more controls for controlling the visual appearance of the display area adjacent to the display area provides feedback to a user of the computer system that the first set of one or more controls are selectable to control aspects of the display area including the representation of the first content. Improves usability of the computer system by providing improved feedback, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, in addition to the first set of one or more controls, the graphical object includes additional content associated with the display area. For example, the graphical object may include text describing the content displayed in the display area, a search bar, additional controls, and/or a frame that visually associates the content of the graphical object with the display area. In some embodiments, the display of the graphical object is associated with the display area such that the graphical object is not displayed when the display area is not displayed, and the graphical object is optionally (e.g., conditionally) displayed when the display area is displayed.

In some embodiments, while a display area (e.g., 14170) including a representation of a first content occupies an amount of display space (e.g., the display area is at a first display size) and the representation of the first content is at a third size, a computer system (e.g., 14000B) receives (e.g., via 14174) data indicating a change in size of the first content at an external computer system (e.g., 14000A) (e.g., data indicating that the external computer system has changed the size of the first content). In some embodiments, in response to receiving data indicating a change in size of the first content at the external computer system (e.g., 14000A), the computer system (e.g., 14000B) resizes the representation of the first content from a third size to a fourth size different from the third size (e.g., increases/decreases the display size of the representation of the first content based on the change in size of the first content at the external computer system), which includes, in accordance with a determination that the automatic resize function (e.g., represented by 14185-4) is enabled (e.g., the size lock control is disabled), the computer system (e.g., 14000B) adjusts the amount of display space occupied by the display region (e.g., 14170) (e.g., increases/decreases the display size of the display region by the increased/decreased size of the representation of the first content). In some embodiments, in response to receiving data indicating a change in size of the first content at the external computer system (e.g., 14000A), the computer system (e.g., 14000B) resizes the representation of the first content from a third size to a fourth size different from the third size (e.g., increasing/decreasing a display size of the representation of the first content based on the change in size of the first content at the external computer system), but refrains from adjusting an amount of display space occupied by the display region (e.g., maintaining the display size of the display region while the size of the representation of the first content is increased/decreased (e.g., scaled)) in accordance with a determination that the auto-resizing function (e.g., represented by 14185-4) is disabled (e.g., a size lock control is enabled). Selectively adjusting the amount of display space occupied by the display region in response to whether the auto-resizing function is enabled or disabled provides a user of the computer system with control to determine whether the display region is automatically resized and reduces the number of inputs at the computer system by automatically adjusting or maintaining the display space occupied by the display region without requiring further input from a user of the computer system. Executing an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input enhances the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs when operating/interacting with the computer system and reducing user errors), and also reduces system power usage and improves battery life by allowing the user to use the computer system more quickly and efficiently.

In some embodiments, the auto-resizing functionality is disabled in response to selection of a size lock affordance (e.g., 14185-4) (e.g., a size lock control selectable to enable and/or disable the functionality of automatically adjusting the size of the display area in response to changes in the size of the first content in an auto-resizing functionality of an external computer system).

In some embodiments, the auto-resizing function is disabled in response to an input (e.g., at a computer system) (e.g., 14184) corresponding to a request to resize the display area that is received prior to receiving data indicating a change in size of the first content at the external computer system (e.g., 14000A). In some embodiments, the auto-resizing function is enabled in response to a selection (e.g., 14198) of an unlock affordance (e.g., a size lock/unlock control selectable to enable and/or disable a function for automatically adjusting the size of the display area in response to a change in size of the first content at the external computer system). In some embodiments, the unlock affordance is used to disable the auto-resizing function. In some embodiments, the unlock affordance is different from the affordance (e.g., the lock affordance) used to disable the auto-resizing function.

In some embodiments, while a display region including a representation of the first content is displayed having a fifth size and the representation of the first content is displayed having a sixth size (e.g., while the auto-resizing feature is disabled), a computer system (e.g., 14000B) receives a request (e.g., 14198) to enable the auto-resizing feature (e.g., deselecting the size lock affordance). In response to receiving the request to enable the auto-resizing feature, the computer system (e.g., 14000B) resizes the display region from the fifth size to a predetermined size (e.g., 14000B of FIGS. 14T-14U) that is based on the sixth size of the representation of the first content (e.g., the display region is resized to best fit the representation of the first content) (e.g., while continuing to maintain the fifth size of the representation of the first content). Resizing the display area from the fifth size to a predetermined size based on the sixth size of the representation of the first content in response to receiving a request to enable the auto-resizing feature reduces the number of inputs in the computer system by automatically resizing the display area to an optimal size without requiring further input from a user of the computer system. Performing an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input enhances the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate inputs when operating/interacting with the computer system and reducing user errors), and also reduces system power usage and improves battery life by allowing the user to use the computer system more quickly and efficiently. In some embodiments, the auto-resizing feature is enabled in response to receiving a request to enable the auto-resizing feature.

In some embodiments, resizing the representation of the first content (e.g., 14086') from the third size to the fourth size includes displaying the representation of the first content in a location previously occupied by display content (e.g., 14030) (e.g., other application windows, desktop user interfaces, home screen user interfaces) that was not included in the display area (e.g., 14170) prior to resizing the representation of the first content from the third size to the fourth size (e.g., resizing (e.g., increasing) the representation of the first content includes obscuring portions of other display content with at least a portion of the representation of the first content).

In some embodiments, resizing the representation of the first content (e.g., 14086') from the third size to the fourth size includes displaying content (e.g., 14030) other than the representation of the first content (e.g., other application windows, desktop user interfaces, home screen user interfaces) in a location that was previously contained in the display area (e.g., 14170) before resizing the representation of the first content from the third size to the fourth size (e.g., resizing (e.g., reducing) the representation of the first content includes revealing portions of the other displayed content).

In some embodiments, displaying the representation of the first content (e.g., 14086') includes displaying the representation of the first content without displaying certain types of graphical objects (e.g., auxiliary user interface objects associated with the first content, such as menus, popovers, error messages, and/or print screens) (e.g., 14045A) that are displayed with the first content (e.g., 14086) at the external computer system (e.g., 14000A). Displaying the representation of the first content without displaying the types of graphical objects that are displayed with the first content at the external computer system provides a privacy benefit to a user of the external computer system by preventing accidental sharing of the content, improves visibility of the shared content to a user of the computer system by eliminating the display of irrelevant user interface elements at the computer system, and reduces the number of calculations performed at the computer system. Reducing the number of calculations in a computer system conserves the computing resources of the computer system, improves the operability of the computer system, makes the user-system interface more efficient (e.g., by assisting the user in providing appropriate input and reducing user errors when operating/interacting with the computer system), and further reduces power usage and improves battery life of the computer system by allowing the user to use the system more quickly and efficiently.

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 16) described above with respect to method 1600 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above and/or below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1700, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1600. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

FIG. 17 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for managing a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000) according to some embodiments. Method 1700 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 6000) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001 and/or 6007) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001, 6002, and/or 6003) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1700 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1700 provides an intuitive way to manage a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to manage a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to manage a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

The computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more output generation components (e.g., 6001) (and while the computer system is connected to the real-time communication session), displays (1702) a first user interface (e.g., 6088) (e.g., an application window, a picture-in-picture (PiP) window, a video application interface, a web browser interface, a music application interface) and simultaneously displays in the first user interface a view (e.g., 6150B) (1704) of content (e.g., video content) of the shared content session (e.g., content in an active shared content session) overlaid on a background user interface (e.g., 6088 and/or an application icon on 6088). The display includes a first representation (e.g., 6243) (1706) (e.g., graphical objects, tiles, video feeds, avatars, and/or identifiers (e.g., names or initials)) of a participant (e.g., a most active participant or a most recently active participant) of a real-time (e.g., audio and/or video) communication session (e.g., an active real-time communication session to which the computer system is connected), the first representation of the participant of the real-time communication session being displayed in a first discrete location (e.g., the upper left corner of 6150B) (e.g., a fixed location) relative to a view of the content of the shared content session.

In some embodiments, the first user interface is overlaid on a home screen (e.g., 6018 or 6088) and/or another user interface (e.g., one or more windows of one or more other applications). In some embodiments, representations of participants in the real-time communication session (e.g., 6295 or 6243) are overlaid on a view of the content of the shared content session (e.g., 6150A or 6150B). In some embodiments, the user interface and/or the view of the content can be moved (e.g., as shown in Figures 6DH-6DJ) and the representations of participants in the real-time communication session remain fixed relative to the view of the content while the user interface and/or the view of the content are moved. In some embodiments, the representations of participants in the real-time communication session cannot be moved relative to the view of the content of the shared content session, e.g., via user input. Simultaneously displaying a view of the content of the shared content session and a first representation of the participants of the real-time communication session in the first user interface allows a user to view the content of the shared content session while maintaining the context of the ongoing real-time communication session without requiring the display of a user interface of the real-time communication application, which provides improved visual feedback without cluttering the user interface.

While the computer system (e.g., 6000) is displaying the first user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives a request (e.g., 6592) (e.g., input) to move a view of content within the first user interface (1708).

In response to receiving a request to move the view of the content, the computer system (e.g., 6000) moves (1710) the view of the content according to the request (e.g., according to a direction and/or magnitude specified by the input), moving the first representation of the participant (e.g., moving 6150B and 6243 in FIGS. 6DH-6DI) so that the first representation of the participant is displayed in a first separate location relative to the view of the content of the shared content session. Moving the view of the content and the first representation of the participant so that the first representation of the participant is displayed in a first separate location relative to the view of the content of the shared content session indicates to the user that there is a relationship between the content and the first representation of the real-time communication session participant while other content (e.g., background user interface) is displayed (e.g., a real-time communication session participant is also a shared content session participant and can see the content but cannot see the background user interface), which provides improved visual feedback.

After moving the view of the content and the first representation of the participants, the computer system (e.g., 6000) detects (1712) a request (e.g., 6602) to cease displaying the view of the content of the shared content session via a background user interface (while the computer system is connected to the real-time communication session).

In response to detecting a request to cease displaying the view of the shared content session content on the background user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001), displays (1714) a view of the hidden content (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6DM) on the background user interface without displaying a representation of the participant (e.g., 6243) at a first individual location relative to the view of the shared content session content. Displaying the view of the hidden content on the background user interface without displaying a representation of the participant at a first individual location relative to the view of the shared content session content indicates that the first representation of the participant is not constrained to the first individual location relative to the view of the shared content session content, which provides improved visual feedback.

In some embodiments, while displaying a view of the content that is not overlaid on the background user interface (e.g., 6150A of FIG. 6AX), the representations of the participants of the real-time communication session (e.g., 6235) may be moved (e.g., via user input) to a different location (e.g., as shown in FIGS. 6AX-6AZ) relative to the view of the content of the shared content session. In some embodiments, detecting a request to cease displaying the view of the content of the shared content session overlaying the background user interface includes detecting a request to expand the view of the content of the shared content session (e.g., 6602), and in response to detecting the request to expand the view of the content of the shared content session, the computer system displays an updated view (e.g., an expanded view or a full screen view) of the content of the shared content session (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6DM). In some embodiments, the updated view of the content of the shared content session is displayed simultaneously with the representations of the participants of the real-time communication session in a location that is not fixed relative to the view of the content of the shared content session.

In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to cease displaying a view of the shared content session content on the background user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more output generation components (e.g., 6001) (and optionally simultaneously with the view of the content not displayed on the background user interface), displays a second representation (e.g., 6245) of the participant at a second separate location (e.g., bottom right) and/or at a first size relative to the view of the shared content session content (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6DM). In some embodiments, the second separate location relative to the view of the shared content session content is different from the first separate location relative to the view of the shared content session content. In some embodiments, the first size (e.g., the size of 6245 of FIG. 6DM) is different from the size of the first representation of the participant displayed at the first separate location relative to the view of the shared content session content (e.g., the size of 6243 of FIGS. 6DH-6DL). Displaying the second representations of the participants in different respective locations and/or at different sizes relative to the view of the content of the shared content session allows users to view the content of the shared content session while maintaining the context of (e.g., without interruption to) the ongoing real-time communication session without requiring the display of a user interface of the real-time communication application, providing improved visual feedback without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, the background user interface is a system user interface (e.g., 400 or 6088) (e.g., a home screen, a desktop user interface, user interface 400, a user interface provided and/or controlled by the operating system of the computer system, and/or a displayed user interface that includes a user interface object corresponding to a respective application, where activation of the user interface object causes the computer system to display the respective application corresponding to the activated user interface object). By simultaneously displaying a view of the content of the shared content session overlaid on the system user interface and a first representation of the participants of the real-time communication session, the user can view the content and perform operations provided by the system user interface (e.g., launching an application and/or navigating a menu) while maintaining the context of the real-time communication session without having to navigate away from a user interface dedicated to the real-time communication session (e.g., a video communication application) or the content of the shared content session, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform the operations.

In some embodiments, the background user interface is an application user interface (e.g., 6004B of FIG. 6AT) (e.g., an application window). In some embodiments, the application user interface includes content and/or one or more selectable objects. By simultaneously displaying a view of the content of the shared content session overlaid on the application user interface and a first representation of the participants of the real-time communication session, a user can view the content and perform an operation provided by the application user interface (e.g., web browsing or sending a text message) while maintaining the context of the real-time communication session without having to navigate away from a user interface dedicated to the real-time communication session (e.g., a video communication application) or the content of the shared content session, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform the operation.

In some embodiments, while simultaneously displaying in a first user interface a view of the shared content session content overlaid on the background user interface and a first representation of a participant at a first individual location relative to the view of the shared content session content, the computer system (e.g., 6000) detects a request (e.g., 6486) to change the background user interface from the first background user interface (e.g., 6088-1) to a second background user interface (e.g., 6496) that is different from the first background user interface (e.g., a different application or home screen). In response to detecting the request to change the background user interface from the first background user interface to the second background user interface, the computer system simultaneously displays a view of the shared content session content overlaid on the second background user interface (e.g., 6150B in FIG. 6CR) and a first representation of a participant displayed at a first individual location relative to the view of the shared content session content (e.g., 6243 in FIG. 6CR). By simultaneously displaying a view of the content of the shared content session overlaid on a second background user interface in response to detecting a request to change the background user interface and a first representation of the participants at a first separate location relative to the view of the content of the shared content session, a user may navigate to, for example, a different application and/or portion of a home screen while maintaining a view of the content and the first representation of the participants without having to navigate away from a user interface dedicated solely to the real-time communication session or the content of the shared content session, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, when the background user interface is switched (e.g., to a different application or home screen) (e.g., as shown on device 6000B in FIGS. 6CP-6CR), the computer system (e.g., 6000) maintains a display of the first representation of the participant (e.g., 6243) in a first separate location relative to the view of the shared content session content (e.g., 6150B). In some embodiments, the view of the shared content session content is maintained in the same location or moved based on the second background user interface (e.g., to avoid elements of the second background user interface, such as the keyboard or self-view in a video chat session user interface, or the toolbar or other important controls of an application, such as a send button in a messaging application).

In some embodiments, while displaying a view of the content of the shared content session overlaying the background user interface (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6CP), the computer system (e.g., 6000) detects a request (e.g., 6476) to perform an operation in the background user interface. In some embodiments, the request to perform an operation in the background user interface includes, for example, selecting a selectable object to perform an operation on, scrolling through content, navigating a home screen (e.g., navigating pages of a home screen), sending a message, and/or reorganizing icons (e.g., application icons, application widgets, and/or folders). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the request to perform an operation in the background user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000) performs the operation in the background user interface while maintaining a display of the view of the content of the shared content session overlaying the background user interface (e.g., while displaying interface 6088-1 of FIG. 6CQ) (e.g., while continuing to update the representation of the shared content and/or participants over time). Performing an operation in the background user interface while maintaining a display of a view of the content of the shared content session that overlays the background user interface allows a user to perform an operation provided by the background user interface while maintaining a display of a first representation of the content and participants without having to navigate from a user interface dedicated solely to the real-time communication session or the content of the shared content session, which reduces the number of inputs required to perform an operation.

In some embodiments, the request (e.g., 6594) to cease displaying a view of the content of the shared content session (e.g., 6150A in FIG. 6DI) via (e.g., overlaid on) the background user interface (e.g., 6018) includes (e.g., is a request to) display (e.g., open, launch, and/or display in the foreground) a first user interface (e.g., 6170A) of a video communication application (e.g., providing a real-time communication session). Displaying a view of the content in response to a request to display a user interface of the video communication session (e.g., providing a real-time communication session) allows a user to continue viewing the content of the shared content session while providing additional functionality related to the real-time communication session provided by the video communication application, which allows the ability to simultaneously perform multiple tasks (e.g., viewing content and participating in a real-time communication session), provides improved visual feedback, and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to display a user interface of the video communication application, the computer system displays the user interface of the video communication application simultaneously with the view of the content.

In some embodiments, while displaying a first user interface (e.g., 6170A) of the video communication application, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays multiple representations (e.g., 6172 and 6174) of participants of the real-time communication session within the first user interface of the video communication application. Displaying multiple representations of participants of the real-time communication session in the first user interface of the video communication application provides additional context about the real-time communication session while maintaining a view of the content of the shared content session, which provides improved visual feedback.

In some embodiments, the request to cease displaying a view of the shared content session content on the background user interface (e.g., 6570) includes (e.g., is) a request to display the content (e.g., 6574) in an expanded display mode (e.g., 6574 of FIG. 6DD) (e.g., a full-screen or substantially full-screen mode in which computer system status information continues to be displayed) (e.g., 6584 of FIG. 6DC). In response to detecting a request to display the content in an expanded display mode, displaying a view of the undisplayed content on the background user interface without displaying a representation of the participant at a first separate location relative to the view of the shared content session content provides the user with an expanded (e.g., larger) view of the shared content session content, which provides improved visual feedback. In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to display the content in an expanded display mode, the computer system displays the content in an expanded display mode (e.g., expands the view of the content).

In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request (e.g., 6584) to display content in the extended display mode, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays the content (e.g., 6574) in a second user interface (e.g., 6574 of FIG. 6DD) in the extended display mode (e.g., the content occupies all or a portion of the window displayed in the extended display mode). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a request to display content in the extended display mode, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays a third representation (e.g., 6235 of FIG. 6DD) (e.g., a representation larger than the first representation) of the participants in the real-time communication session overlaid (e.g., a full-screen view of the content and/or overlaid on a full-screen window of the application displaying the content) on the second user interface (e.g., 6574 of FIG. 6DD) (e.g., in the blank space of the window when the computer system is physically in portrait orientation and the content is displayed in landscape orientation) simultaneously with the content in the second user interface in the extended display mode. Displaying a third representation of the participants in the real-time communication session overlaid on the second user interface in the expanded display mode provides the user with an expanded view of the content of the shared content session while simultaneously maintaining the context of the real-time communication session, which provides improved visual feedback.

In some embodiments, while displaying a third representation (e.g., 6235 of FIG. 6DD) of a participant of the real-time communication session at a first location (e.g., the bottom right corner of FIG. 6DD) on the second user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives a request (e.g., 6586) to move the third representation of the participant (e.g., in the second user interface). In some embodiments, the request to move the third representation of the participant includes a tap-and-drag gesture on the third representation of the participant. In response to receiving the request to move the third representation of the participant, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays the third representation (e.g., 6235) of the participant of the real-time communication session at a second location (e.g., the top right corner of FIG. 6DE) on the second user interface, the second location being different from the first location (e.g., moving the third representation from the first location to the second location). Optionally, the third representation of the participant is moved within the second user interface while maintaining the content at the same location within the second user interface. Displaying the third representation of the participant at a different location on the second user interface in response to receiving a request to move the third representation of the participant allows a user to place the third representation in a desired location, which provides enhanced user customization and improved visual feedback.

In some embodiments, while displaying a third representation of a participant of the real-time communication session on the second user interface (e.g., 6235 of FIG. 6DD), the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives an indication of a change in an activity level of the second participant of the real-time communication session. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the indication of a change in the activity level of the second participant of the real-time communication session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays a representation of the second participant of the real-time communication session (e.g., 6235 of FIG. 6DE) (e.g., replacing the first representation of the participant with a representation of the second participant (in the same location and/or size as the representation of the participant) or changing the first representation of the participant from including a representation of the first participant to including a representation of the second participant (e.g., changing a video feed and/or avatar included in the first representation)). Displaying a representation of a second participant in the real-time communication session in response to receiving an indication of a change in the activity level of the second participant in the real-time communication session provides relevant context for the real-time communication session by showing that the second participant is, for example, talking and/or moving, which provides improved visual feedback.

In some embodiments, while displaying a view of the content of the shared content session in a first user interface (e.g., 6088) overlaid on a background user interface (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6BB) and a first representation (e.g., 6243) of a participant in the real-time communication session at a first individual location relative to the view of the content of the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives an indication of a change in the activity level of a third participant in the real-time communication session. In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication of a change in the activity level of a third participant of the real-time communication session while displaying, in a first user interface, a view of the shared content session content overlaid on a background user interface and a first representation of a participant of the real-time communication session at a first separate location relative to the view of the shared content session content overlaid on the background user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays a representation of the third participant of the real-time communication session (e.g., 6243 of FIG. 6BC) at the first separate location relative to the view of the shared content session content overlaid on the background user interface (e.g., replacing the first representation of the participant with a representation of the third participant (at the same location and/or size as the first representation of the participant) or changing the first representation of the participant from including a representation of the first participant to including a representation of the third participant (e.g., changing the video feed and/or avatar included in the representation)). In response to receiving an indication of a change in the activity level of a third participant in the real-time communication session, displaying a representation of the third participant in the real-time communication session in a first separate location relative to a view of the content of the shared content session overlaid on a background user interface provides context regarding the real-time communication session while displaying the content of the shared content session, which provides improved visual feedback.

In some embodiments, while displaying in a first user interface (e.g., 6018 in FIG. 6DN) a view of the shared content session content (e.g., 6150A) overlaid on a background user interface (e.g., 6018) and a first representation (e.g., 6295) of a participant in the real-time communication session at a first discrete location (e.g., the upper left corner) relative to the view of the shared content session content, the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives a first indication (e.g., via input 6618) that a participant in the real-time communication session (or a device associated with the participant) is not providing (e.g., transmitting) video to the real-time communication session (e.g., the real-time communication session does not include video from any of the participants or all participants have disabled or muted their outgoing video feeds). In some embodiments, in response to receiving a first indication that a participant in the real-time communication session is not contributing video to the real-time communication session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) ceases displaying (e.g., in FIG. 6DO) a first representation (e.g., 6295) of the participant in the real-time communication session. Ceasing to display the first representation of the participant in the real-time communication session in response to receiving a first indication that a participant in the real-time communication session is not contributing video to the real-time communication session reduces confusion on the user interface and provides improved visual feedback when a participant in the real-time communication session is not contributing video to the real-time communication session. In some embodiments, in response to receiving a first indication that a participant in the real-time communication session is not contributing video to the real-time communication session, the computer system displays content obscured by the first representation.

In some embodiments, while displaying in a first user interface a view of the content of the shared content session (e.g., 6150A or 6150B of FIG. 6DQ) overlaid on a background user interface (and a first representation of the participants of the real-time communication session at a first individual location for the view of the content of the shared content session), the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives an indication (e.g., via input 6626) that the content has been removed from the shared content session (e.g., the content has stopped being shared or is no longer being shared, or the content is no longer in the shared content session). In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that the content has been removed from the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) ceases displaying the view of the content (e.g., FIG. 6DR). In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that the content has been removed from the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays, within the first user interface, a fourth representation of the participants in the real-time communication session overlaid on the background user interface (e.g., 6235 or 6245). In response to receiving an indication that the content has been removed from the shared content session, ceasing to display a view of the content and displaying a fourth representation of the participants in the real-time communication session overlaid on the background user interface indicates that the content has been removed from the shared content session, which provides improved visual feedback, while continuing to provide the user with a view of the content after the content has been removed from the shared content session.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000) receives a request (e.g., 6634) to move a fourth representation (e.g., 6245) of a participant of the real-time communication session within a first user interface. In some embodiments, in response to receiving the request to move the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) moves the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session (e.g., from the position of 6245 in FIG. 6DR to the position of 6245 in FIG. 6DS) in accordance with the request to move the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session (e.g., moving the fourth representation in a direction and/or magnitude based on the direction and/or magnitude of an input corresponding to the request). In response to receiving the request to move the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session, moving the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session in accordance with the request to move the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session allows a user to customize the position of the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session, provides improved visual feedback, and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, while displaying the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session (e.g., 6245 in FIG. 6DN) in the first user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives a second indication (e.g., via input 6618) that the participant of the real-time communication session (or a device associated with the participant) is not providing (e.g., transmitting) video to the real-time communication session (e.g., the real-time communication session does not include video from any of the participants and all participants have disabled or muted their respective outgoing video feeds). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the second indication that the participant of the real-time communication session is not providing video to the real-time communication session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) ceases displaying the fourth representation of the participant of the real-time communication session (e.g., 6245 is not displayed in FIG. 6DO). Ceasing to display the fourth representation of the participants in the real-time communication session in response to receiving a second indication that none of the participants in the real-time communication session are contributing video to the real-time communication session reduces clutter on the user interface and provides improved visual feedback when none of the participants in the real-time communication session are contributing video to the real-time communication session.

In some embodiments, after ceasing to display the fourth representation of the participant in the real-time communication session (and, optionally, while the representation of the participant in the real-time communication session is not displayed in the first user interface), the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives an indication (e.g., a video feed turned on via input 6638) that a participant in the real-time communication session (or a device associated with the participant) is providing (e.g., sending) video to the real-time communication session (e.g., the real-time communication session includes video from at least one of the participants, one or more participants have enabled or unmuted their respective outgoing video feeds, or a participant has started sharing video).

In some embodiments, after ceasing to display the fourth representation of the real-time communication session participant (and, optionally, while the representation of the real-time communication session participant is not displayed in the first user interface), in response to receiving an indication that the real-time communication session participant is contributing video to the real-time communication session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays (e.g., re-displays) a fifth representation (e.g., second representation) of the real-time communication session participant (e.g., 6245 of FIG. 6DU). Displaying the fifth representation of the real-time communication session participant in response to receiving an indication that the real-time communication session participant is contributing video to the real-time communication session provides feedback to the user that the real-time communication session participant is contributing video to the real-time communication session, which provides improved visual feedback. In some embodiments, the fifth representation of the real-time communication session participant is displayed in the same location where the fourth representation was displayed. In some embodiments, the fifth representation changes over time (e.g., to display live video from the participant and/or to display different participant representations based on activity level).

In some embodiments, the fifth representation of a participant in the real-time communication session includes (e.g., at least initially) a representation of a participant (e.g., 6245 in FIG. 6DU) that has displayed an indication (e.g., input 6638) that the participant in the real-time communication session is providing video to the real-time communication session (e.g., a participant that has initiated sharing, providing, or transmitting video when no other participants are sharing video).

In some embodiments, the fifth representation includes a representation of the participant who started providing video in the real-time communication session (e.g., 6245 in FIG. 6DU) even if the participant who started providing video is not the most active participant in the real-time communication session (e.g., another participant has a higher activity level and/or another participant has spoken more and/or spoke more recently than the participant who started providing video). Displaying a representation of a participant in a real-time communication session displaying an indication that the participant is providing video to the real-time communication session provides the user with improved visual feedback that video of the participant in the real-time communication session is available to the user.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000) detects an input (e.g., 6594 of FIG. 6DI) (e.g., a tap) via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001, 6002, and/or 6003) corresponding to a selection of a first representation (e.g., 6295) of a participant of the real-time communication session. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input corresponding to the selection of the first representation of a participant of the real-time communication session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays (e.g., opens, launches, and/or foregrounds) a second user interface (e.g., 6170A as shown in FIG. 6DJ) of a video communication application for the real-time communication session. Displaying a second user interface of a video communication application for the real-time communication session in response to detecting the input corresponding to the selection of the first representation of a participant of the real-time communication session provides a quick and convenient way to open a video communication application for the real-time communication session without requiring a user to separately locate and/or navigate to an application icon to open the video communication application, which reduces the number of inputs required to perform an operation. In some embodiments, the user interface of the video communication application displays multiple representations of participants in a real-time communication session.

In some embodiments, while displaying in a first user interface a view of the content of the shared content session overlaid on a background user interface and a first representation of a participant of the real-time communication session at a first separate location relative to the view of the content of the shared content session, the computer system (e.g., 6000) detects an input via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001, 6002, and/or 6003). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input, and in accordance with a determination that the input is directed to the view of the content (e.g., the input is 6584 of FIG. 6DC, 6596 of FIG. 6DI, or 6598 of FIG. 6DK) (and optionally not the first representation of the participant), the computer system (e.g., 6000) performs an operation associated with the view of the content (e.g., FIG. 6DD, FIG. 6DJ, or FIG. 6DL, respectively). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input, in accordance with a determination that the input is directed to the first representation of the participant (e.g., the input is 6594 in FIG. 6DI) (and optionally not a view of the content), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays (e.g., opens, launches, and/or foregrounds) a third user interface (e.g., 6170A in FIG. 6DJ) of the video communication application for the real-time communication session. Selectively performing operations associated with the view of the content and displaying a third user interface of the video communication application for the real-time communication session based on whether the input is directed to the view of the content or the first representation provides a quick and convenient way to perform an operation associated with the view of the content or open a video communication application that performs an operation when a set of conditions are met without requiring further user input, respectively. In some embodiments, the operation associated with the view of the content includes displaying (e.g., displays) a user interface element for managing the view of the content (e.g., expansion options, playback controls, borders, or chrome).

In some embodiments, while displaying the first user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives a first request (e.g., 6596 of FIG. 6DI) to resize (e.g., increase or decrease) a view of the content (e.g., 6150B) in the first user interface (e.g., increase or decrease the size of a window displaying the content). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first request to resize the view of the content, the computer system (e.g., 6000) resizes the view of the content in accordance with the request to resize the view of the content (e.g., the size of 6150B is increased from FIG. 6DI to FIG. 6DJ). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the first request to resize the view of the content, the computer system (e.g., 6000) resizes the first representation of the participant (e.g., proportional to the change in the size of the view of the content) (e.g., the size of 6243 is increased from FIG. 6DI to FIG. 6DJ). Resizing the view of the content in accordance with a request to resize the view of the content and resizing the participant's first representation in response to receiving a first request to resize the view of the content maintains consistency between the view of the content and the first representation and avoids the need for separate inputs to resize the view of the content and the first representation, which reduces the number of inputs required to perform the operations.

In some embodiments, while displaying the first user interface, the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives a second request (e.g., 6596 in FIG. 6DI) to resize (e.g., increase or decrease) the view of the content (e.g., 6150B) in the first user interface (e.g., increase or decrease the size of the window displaying the content). In response to receiving the second request to resize the view of the content, the computer system (e.g., 6000) resizes the view of the content in accordance with the request to resize the view of the content (e.g., the size of 6243 is increased from FIG. 6DI to FIG. 6DK) without changing the size of the first representation of the participant (e.g., the size of 6150B remains the same from FIG. 6DI to FIG. 6DK). In response to receiving the second request to resize the view of the content, resizing the view of the content without changing the size of the first representation of the participant gives the user greater control over the size of the view of the content relative to the size of the first representation, which provides improved visual feedback.

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 17) described above with respect to method 1700 are also applicable in an analogous manner to the methods described above and below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1800, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1700. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

FIG. 18 is a flow diagram illustrating a method for managing a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000) according to some embodiments. Method 1800 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 6000) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer) in communication with one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001 and/or 6007) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a speaker, a bone conduction audio output device, a tactile output generator, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001, 6002, and/or 6003) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 1800 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 1800 provides an intuitive way to manage a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to manage a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to manage a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

A computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001), displays (1802) a user interface (e.g., 6170) (e.g., a window) of a video communication application, including simultaneously displaying dynamic visual content (1804) (e.g., 6150) (e.g., a video content or a shared screen of a shared content session) (e.g., in a window such as a picture-in-picture window) and one or more representations (1806) (e.g., 6642 or 6644) (e.g., graphical objects, tiles, video feeds, avatars, and/or identifiers (e.g., names or initials)) of participants in the video communication session in the user interface of the video communication application, where the one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session are displayed in a first arrangement (e.g., the arrangement shown in FIG. 6DX or the arrangement shown in FIG. 6DY). Simultaneously displaying dynamic visual content and one or more representations of a video communication session in a user interface of a video communication application integrates the dynamic visual content with the user interface of the video communication application, allowing a user to view the dynamic content while conveniently accessing features (e.g., controls) of the video communication application for participating in an ongoing real-time communication session without having to switch between user interfaces, which reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

The computer system (e.g., 6000) detects (1808) a change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content (e.g., via inputs 6654, 6656, 6662, or 6664) that changes an amount of the user interface of the video communication application covered by the dynamic video content (e.g., the amount of interface 6170 covered by 6150 changes from FIG. 6DX to FIG. 6DY and/or from FIG. 6DY to FIG. 6DZ due to the change in position of 6150). In some embodiments, the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content includes a change from dynamic visual content that does not cover any of the user interface of the video communication application to dynamic visual content that covers a portion of the user interface of the video communication application. In some embodiments, the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content includes a change from dynamic visual content covering a portion of the user interface of the video communication application to not covering any of the user interface of the video communication application. In some embodiments, the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content includes an increase or decrease in the amount of the user interface of the video communication application covered by the dynamic visual content.

In response to detecting a change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content, the computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001), displays (1810) one or more representations of the participants of the video communication session in a second arrangement (e.g., the arrangement shown in FIG. 6DY or the arrangement shown in FIG. 6DZ) within a user interface of the video communication application, the second arrangement being different from the first arrangement and based on the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content (e.g., the arrangement of 6642 and 6644 changes from FIG. 6DX to FIG. 6DY based on the change in position of 6150). Displaying one or more representations of the participants of the video communication session in different arrangements based on the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content in response to detecting the change enables the representations of the participants of the video communication session to automatically adapt to the change in dynamic visual content, providing improved visual feedback, and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an action, to optimize the arrangement of the representations based on the size and/or position of the dynamic visual content, without requiring the user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application.

In some embodiments, the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content occurs in response to detecting an input (e.g., 6654, 6656, 6662, 6664, 6666, 6668, or 6670) (e.g., a pinch gesture, an unpinch gesture, or a drag gesture) via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001, 6002, and/or 6003). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input, the computer system changes the size and/or position of the dynamic visual content. In some embodiments, a magnitude and/or direction of the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content is based on the magnitude and/or direction of the input. In some embodiments, in response to detecting the input, the computer system displays one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a second arrangement.

In some embodiments, the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content (e.g., 6150) occurs in response to (and/or in accordance with) receiving (e.g., detecting) an indication that an event (e.g., end of playback in FIG. 6EJ) has occurred (e.g., a predefined event and an event that meets a set of criteria, the dynamic visual content ends, or the dynamic visual content is removed from the shared content session). Changing the size and/or position of the dynamic visual content in response to receiving an indication that an event has occurred provides improved visual feedback and performs an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input. In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that an event has occurred, the computer system changes the size and/or position of the dynamic visual content. In some embodiments, in response to receiving an indication that an event has occurred, the computer system displays one or more representations of the participants of the video communication session in a second arrangement.

In some embodiments, changing the size and/or position of the dynamic visual content includes changing the size of the dynamic visual content (e.g., reducing the size of 6150A in accordance with 6666).

In some embodiments, changing the size and/or position of the dynamic visual content includes changing the position of the dynamic visual content (e.g., moving 6150B in response to 6668).

In some embodiments, the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content includes the computer system (e.g., 6000) ceasing to display at least a portion (e.g., some or all) of the dynamic visual content (e.g., in response to input 6654 or 6656). Displaying one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a different arrangement in response to detecting that at least a portion of the dynamic visual content is no longer displayed allows the computer system to automatically optimize the arrangement of the representations without requiring a user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, and assuming no display space needs to be allocated to the dynamic visual content, which provides improved visual feedback and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, displaying one or more representations of the participants of the video communication session in a second arrangement in a user interface of the video communication application includes a computer system (e.g., 6000) repositioning (e.g., moving) one or more representations of the participants of the video communication session in a user interface of the video communication application (e.g., repositioning 6642 and 6644 in FIGS. 6DX-6EB). Repositioning one or more representations of the participants in response to detecting a change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content enables the computer system to automatically and dynamically optimize the location of the representations based on the change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content without requiring a user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, which provides improved visual feedback and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, displaying one or more representations of the participants of the video communication session in a second arrangement in a user interface of the video communication application includes a computer system (e.g., 6000) resizing (e.g., increasing or decreasing) one or more representations of the participants of the video communication session in a user interface of the video communication application (e.g., resizing 6642 and 6644 in FIGS. 6DX-6EB). Resizing one or more representations of the participants in response to detecting changes in size and/or position of dynamic visual content enables the computer system to automatically and dynamically optimize the size of the representations based on changes in size and/or position of dynamic visual content without requiring a user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, which provides improved visual feedback and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, displaying one or more representations of participants of the video communication session in a second arrangement in a user interface of the video communication application includes a computer system (e.g., 6000) changing an aspect ratio of one or more representations of participants of the video communication session in a user interface of the video communication application (e.g., the aspect ratio of 6645B changes from FIG. 6DX to FIG. 6DY) (e.g., displaying the representations of the participants having an aspect ratio in the second arrangement that is different from the aspect ratio of the representations of the participants in the first arrangement, such as changing the aspect ratio from a square (1:1) to a rectangle with height greater than width (e.g., 1.25:1 (height to width), 1.5:1, or 2:1)). Changing the aspect ratio of one or more representations of participants in response to detecting a change in size and/or position of dynamic visual content enables the computer system to automatically and dynamically optimize the display of the representations based on the change in size and/or position of dynamic visual content without requiring a user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, which provides improved visual feedback and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, displaying one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in the second arrangement in the user interface of the video communication application includes the computer system (e.g., 6000) ceasing to display (e.g., removing) one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in the user interface of the video communication application (e.g., in FIG. 6DZ, device 6000A ceasing to display tile 6642-3 in primary area 6170A-1) (e.g., in FIG. 6DZ, device 6000B ceasing to display tiles 6644-5 and 6644-6 in primary area 6170B-1). By removing one or more representations of a participant in response to detecting changes in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content, the computer system can automatically and dynamically prioritize which representations to display based on changes in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content without requiring the user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, conserving space in a limited display area (thereby providing more display space for the dynamic visual content), thereby providing improved visual feedback, and reducing the number of inputs required to perform actions.

In some embodiments, ceasing to display one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a user interface of the video communication application includes ceasing to display one or more representations of a first number of participants in the video communication session in a user interface of the video communication application in accordance with a determination that one or more representations of participants in the video communication session are displayed according to a first layout (e.g., the non-grid layout shown on device 6000A in FIG. 6DY) (e.g., a layout in which the representations are staggered and/or overlapping) (e.g., in FIG. 6DZ, device 6000A ceasing to display tile 6642-3 in primary area 6170A-1). In some embodiments, ceasing to display one or more representations of participants of the video communication session in a user interface of the video communication application includes ceasing to display a second number of the one or more representations of participants of the video communication session that is different from the first number in a user interface of the video communication application in accordance with a determination that one or more representations of participants of the video communication session are displayed according to a second layout (e.g., a grid layout shown on device 6000B in FIG. 6DY) that is different from the first layout (e.g., in FIG. 6DZ, device 6000B ceasing to display tiles 6644-5 and 6644-6 in primary area 6170B-1). Ceasing to display different numbers of representations for different layouts of representations enables a computer system to automatically adapt to changes in dynamic visual content based on the layout of the representations, which performs an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input.

In some embodiments, detecting a change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content that changes the amount of the user interface of the video communication application that is covered by the dynamic video content occurs while a computer system (e.g., 6000) displays one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a third layout (e.g., the arrangement of tiles 6642 in FIG. 6DZ or the arrangement of tiles 6644 in FIG. 6DZ). In some embodiments, displaying one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in a second arrangement in a user interface of the video communication application includes displaying one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in a fourth layout that is different from the first layout (e.g., in FIG. 6DZ, device 6000A ceases displaying tile 6642-3 in primary area 6170A-1 and instead displays tile 6642-3 in roster area 6170A-2) (e.g., in FIG. 6DZ, device 6000B ceases displaying tiles 6644-5 and 6644-6 in primary area 6170B-1 and instead displays tiles 6644-5 and 6644-6 in roster area 6170B-2) (and ceases displaying one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in a third layout). Altering the layout of one or more representations of participants in a video communication session in response to detecting changes in size and/or position of dynamic visual content enables a computer system to automatically and dynamically optimize the layout of the representations without requiring a user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, providing improved visual feedback, and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, displaying one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a second arrangement on a user interface of the video communication application includes the computer system (e.g., 6000) changing an aspect ratio (e.g., 1:1 (height to width), 1.25:1, 1.5:1, 1.75:1, or 2:1) of a first representation of a field of view of a camera associated with the computer system (e.g., 6645A changes from FIG. 6DX to 6DY, or 6645B changes from FIG. 6DX to 6DY) (e.g., a representation in the video communication session of a user associated with the computer system, or a selfie view). (In some embodiments, the one or more representations of participants in the video communication session include a first representation of a field of view of a camera associated with the computer system). Altering the aspect ratio of one or more representations of participants in a video communication session in response to detecting changes in size and/or position of dynamic visual content enables a computer system to automatically and dynamically optimize the proportions of the representations without requiring a user to manually adjust the user interface of a video communication application, providing improved visual feedback, and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, a computer system (e.g., 6000) receives (e.g., detects via one or more input devices) a request (e.g., 6668 or 6670) to change the position of dynamic visual content (e.g., 6150B of FIGS. 6DZ and 6EA, or 6150A of FIGS. 6EA-6EC). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the request to change the position of the dynamic visual content, in accordance with a determination that the request to change the position of the dynamic visual content corresponds to a request to change the position of the dynamic visual content to a first position (e.g., the position on device 6000B of FIG. 6EA) (e.g., an allowed position), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays the dynamic visual content in the first position (e.g., 6150B is moved to the position of FIG. 6EA). In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request to change the position of the dynamic visual content, in accordance with a determination that the request to change the position of the dynamic visual content corresponds to a request to change the position of the dynamic visual content to a second position (e.g., a position on device 6000A of FIG. 6EB) that is different from the first position (e.g., a restricted or unacceptable position, or a position that overlaps with the control and/or expression of a user of the computer system), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays the dynamic visual content in a third position that is different from the second position (e.g., 6150A is moved to position in FIG. 6EC). Displaying the dynamic visual content in a position different from the requested position (e.g., in the third position instead of the second position) based on where the dynamic visual content is requested to be moved allows the computer system to automatically avoid displaying the dynamic visual content in certain positions of the user interface of the video communication session that may include content that is undesirable to be moved or obscured, which performs the action when a set of conditions are met without requiring further user input, and provides improved visual feedback to the user. In some embodiments, the computer system does not allow the dynamic visual content to be displayed or moved to certain positions or areas of the user interface of the video communication application. For example, if a user attempts to move the dynamic visual content to a restricted portion of the user interface of the video communication application, the computer system may maintain the position of the dynamic visual content or display the dynamic visual content in another position different from the requested position (e.g., an allowable position that is closest to the requested restricted position).

In some embodiments, the user interface of the video communication application includes a first region (e.g., 6170A-1 or 6170B-1) that includes a representation of a first set of participants in the video communication session (e.g., one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session, or a subset of the one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session). In some embodiments, the user interface of the video communication application includes a second region (e.g., 6170A-2 or 6170B-2) that includes a representation of a second set of participants in the video communication session (e.g., a subset of the one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session, or one or more representations of participants not represented by the one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session) (e.g., a region that is visually distinct from and/or does not overlap with the first region). In some embodiments, the representations of the first set of representations are displayed at a larger size than the representations of the second set of representations (e.g., tiles 6642-1 and 6642-2 are larger than tiles 6642-3 through 6642-6 of FIG. 6EC) (e.g., tiles 6644-1 through 6644-4 are larger than tiles 6644-5 through 6644-6 of FIG. 6EB). In some embodiments, the second position corresponds to a second region of a user interface of the video communication application (e.g., the computer system does not allow the dynamic visual content to be displayed in the second region). When the second position corresponds to the second region, displaying the dynamic visual content in a third position instead of the second position enables the computer system to automatically avoid displaying the dynamic visual content in the second region of the user interface of the video communication session, where the representations are smaller than the first region and therefore prone to being significantly (e.g., completely) obscured, which performs an action when a set of conditions is met and provides improved visual feedback to the user without requiring further user input. In some embodiments, the second set of representations corresponds to participants in the video communication session that have a lower activity level (e.g., are less active or less recently active based on how much and/or how recently the participants have been talking and/or moving) than participants in the video communication session that correspond to the first set of representations.

In some embodiments, the user interface of the video communication application includes a second representation (e.g., 6645A or 6645B of FIG. 6EE) of a field of view of a camera (e.g., 6002) associated with a computer system (e.g., 6000) (e.g., a representation in a video communication session of a user associated with the computer system, a selfie view). In some embodiments, one or more representations of participants in the video communication session include a second representation of a field of view of a camera associated with the computer system. In some embodiments, the second position corresponds to a second representation of a field of view of a camera associated with the computer system (e.g., 6000) (e.g., the computer system does not allow dynamic visual content to be displayed overlapping the representation of the user of the computer system). Displaying the dynamic visual content at a third position instead of the second position when the second position corresponds to the second region allows the computer system to automatically avoid displaying dynamic visual content at a position of the representation of the user of the computer system that may not be desirable to move or obscure, thus performing an action when a set of conditions is met and providing improved visual feedback to the user without requiring further user input.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000) ceases displaying (e.g., closes, minimizes, or hides) the video communication application user interface (e.g., device 6000B closes interface 6170B of FIG. 6EK). In some embodiments, after ceasing to display the video communication application user interface (e.g., in response), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays (e.g., continues to display) the dynamic visual content (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6EL) (e.g., overlaid on another user interface, such as a home screen and/or one or more application windows (e.g., that were open in the background behind the video communication application user interface)). Displaying the dynamic visual content after ceasing to display the video communication application user interface allows a user to continue viewing the dynamic visual content automatically after closing or minimizing the video communication application user interface in order to view other interfaces and/or perform functions associated with such interfaces without having to provide input to continue viewing the dynamic visual content, which reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action. In some embodiments, ceasing to display the user interface of the video communication application occurs in response to receiving (e.g., detecting) a request to ceasing to display the user interface of the video communication application. In some embodiments, displaying the dynamic visual content after ceasing to display the user interface of the video communication application includes displaying the dynamic visual content in the same position (e.g., maintaining the position of the dynamic visual content).

In some embodiments, the dynamic visual content includes content included in a first shared content session (e.g., 6150A or 6150B of FIG. 6CZ), which includes one or more of the participants in the video communication session (e.g., 6172, 6174, 6176, or 6178) (e.g., the dynamic visual content is displayed simultaneously at one or more external computer systems associated with each participant in the video communication session (e.g., as discussed with respect to methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, and/or 1700). In some embodiments, the dynamic visual content includes content not included in the shared content session. By displaying the dynamic visual content included in the shared content session simultaneously with one or more representations of participants in the video communication session who are also participants in the shared content session, a user can view the content simultaneously with other participants while participating in the video communication session without switching between user interfaces, thereby reducing the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, while displaying dynamic visual content (e.g., content included in the shared content session if one or more participants in the video communication are participants in the shared content session) and one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session (e.g., the first arrangement or the second arrangement) in a user interface of the video communication application, the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays a shared content session object (e.g., 6015) that includes information associated with a second shared content session (e.g., if one or more participants in the video communication are participants in a shared content session) and/or one or more selectable options that, when selected, cause the computer system (e.g., 6000) to perform a respective function associated with the second shared content session or the video communication session. In some embodiments, while displaying dynamic visual content (e.g., 6150B of FIG. 6AS) (e.g., content included in a shared content session where one or more participants in the video communication are participants in the shared content session) and one or more representations of participants in the video communication session (e.g., 6176 and/or 6178) in a user interface of the video communication application (e.g., in the first arrangement or the second arrangement), the computer system, via one or more output generation components (e.g., 6001), displays a shared content session object (and, optionally, based on the display of the shared content session object), which includes displaying one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a user interface of the video communication application in a third arrangement (e.g., as shown in device 6000B of FIG. 6AS) that is different from the first arrangement and the second arrangement (e.g., as shown in device 6000B of FIG. 6AR). Displaying one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in different arrangements when displaying the shared content session object allows the computer system to automatically optimize the display of the user interface when displaying the shared content session object without requiring the user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, which provides improved visual feedback and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, the shared content session object (e.g., 6015) is displayed in response to detecting an input corresponding to, for example, a selection (e.g., 6236) of the dynamic visual content (e.g., 6150). In some embodiments, displaying one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in the third arrangement includes resizing (e.g., shrinking) one or more representations of participants in the video communication session (e.g., 6176 or 6178), changing an aspect ratio of one or more representations of participants in the video communication session, and/or ceasing to display one or more representations of participants in the video communication session.

In some embodiments, the shared content session object (e.g., 6015B) is displayed concurrently with (e.g., includes) a notification (e.g., 6230) that includes information related to the dynamic visual content (e.g., 6150B) (e.g., name of the content, title of the content, playback status of the content, and/or the participant that initiated playback of the content). Displaying the notification that includes information related to the dynamic visual content concurrently with the shared content session object allows the computer system to provide contextually relevant information about the dynamic visual content to the user, which provides improved visual feedback to the user.

In some embodiments, the shared content session object (e.g., 6015) includes one or more selectable options (e.g., 6015-1, 6015-4, 6015-5, 6015-6, 6015-7, 6015-8, or 6015-9) that, when selected, cause the computer system (e.g., 6000) to perform a particular function associated with the shared content session (e.g., to control dynamic visual content) or the video communication session. Displaying one or more selectable options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a particular function associated with the shared content session or the video communication session provides the user with additional functionality and control over the shared content session and/or the video communication session, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, after displaying one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a second arrangement in a user interface of the video communication application (e.g., 6170 of FIG. 6DY) and while one or more representations of participants in the video communication session (e.g., 6642 or 6644 of FIG. 6DY) are displayed in a fourth arrangement (e.g., 6170 of FIG. 6DY) (e.g., the second arrangement), the computer system (e.g., 6000) detects a second change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content that changes an amount of the user interface of the video communication application that is covered by the dynamic video content (e.g., display 6150A or 6150B of FIG. 6DZ) (e.g., redisplaying the dynamic visual content, resizing the dynamic visual content, moving the dynamic visual content, ceasing to display the dynamic visual content, or redisplaying the dynamic visual content after the dynamic visual content has been hidden or minimized).

In some embodiments, after displaying one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in a second arrangement on a user interface of the video communication application, in response to detecting a second change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content while the one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session are displayed in a fourth arrangement (e.g., the second arrangement), the computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more output generation components (e.g., 6001), displays one or more representations of the participants in the video communication session in a fifth arrangement (e.g., the first arrangement) on a user interface of the video communication application (e.g., 6642 or 6644 of FIG. 6DZ), where the fifth arrangement is different from the fourth arrangement and is based on the second change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content. Displaying one or more representations of participants in the video communication session in a different arrangement in response to detecting a second change in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content allows the computer system to automatically revert to the previous arrangement or a new arrangement based on further changes in size and/or position of the dynamic visual content without requiring the user to manually adjust the user interface of the video communication application, which provides improved visual feedback and reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, the computer system (e.g., 6000) detects a change in the video communication session (e.g., an extension of 6645A or 6645B in FIG. 6EE) (e.g., an extension of a representation of a participant in the video communication session or an extension of a representation of a field of view of a camera associated with the computer system). In some embodiments, in response to detecting the change in the video communication session, the computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more output generating components (e.g., 6001), displays (e.g., moves its display) dynamic visual content in accordance with the change in the video communication session (e.g., 6150A and/or 6150B move from the display position in FIG. 6ED to the display position in FIG. 6EE). By displaying dynamic visual content in accordance with the change in the video communication session in response to detecting the change in the video communication session, the computer system can automatically adapt the dynamic visual content based on the change in the video communication session without requiring the user to manually adjust the dynamic visual content, thereby providing improved visual feedback and reducing the number of inputs required to perform an action.

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000) is connected to an active shared content session that includes dynamic visual content, pursuant to a determination that the dynamic visual content is not visible (e.g., 6150A and/or 6150B are docked and minimized in FIG. 6DY) (e.g., the dynamic visual content is minimized or the computer system is not performing playback of the dynamic visual content (e.g., stopped)), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays within a user interface of a video communication application a third representation of the field of view of the camera associated with the computer system (e.g., 6000) in a first aspect ratio (e.g., 6645A and/or 6645B are displayed in an elongated shape). In some embodiments, pursuant to a determination that the dynamic visual content is visible (e.g., 6150A and/or 6150B in FIG. 6DX are undocked), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays within a user interface of the video communication application a third representation of the field of view of the camera associated with the computer system (e.g., 6000) in a second aspect ratio different from the first aspect ratio (e.g., 6645A and/or 6645B are displayed as a square in FIG. 6DX). Selectively displaying the third representation of the field of view of the camera associated with the computer system having the first aspect ratio or the second aspect ratio based on whether the dynamic visual content is visible enables the computer system to automatically select an aspect ratio for the dynamic visual content based on the context, which performs an action when a set of conditions are met without requiring further user input.

It should be noted that the details of the process (e.g., FIG. 18) described above with respect to method 1800 are also applicable in an analogous manner to the methods described above and below. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, and/or 2000 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 1800. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

19A-19AB show exemplary user interfaces for managing a shared content session, according to some embodiments. In particular, these exemplary interfaces are used to illustrate and/or describe various embodiments for selecting content to be shared in a shared content session. The user interfaces of these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes described with respect to FIGS. 20A and 20B. In some embodiments, the user interfaces of FIGS. 19A-19AB can be used to illustrate one or more aspects of the processes described above with respect to FIGS. 7-13 and 15-18. Thus, it should be understood that one or more aspects of the embodiments shown in FIGS. 6A-6EQ can be accomplished using the interfaces shown in FIGS. 19A-19AB, and vice versa.

19A-19AB show exemplary devices for participating in a shared content session, according to some embodiments. Specifically, these devices include John's device 6000A and Jane's device 6000B. As described above, John's device 6000A includes a display 6001A, one or more cameras 6002A, one or more microphones 6003A, and one or more speakers 6007A. Similarly, Jane's device 6000B includes a display 6001B, one or more cameras 6002B, one or more microphones 6003B, and one or more speakers 6007B.

Unless otherwise noted, device 6000 can participate in a shared content session, including screen sharing and/or sharing synchronized content, in a manner similar to that described above with respect to Figures 6A-6EQ. For brevity, the various operations or features described above with respect to participating in a shared content session will not be repeated below. For example, various notifications (e.g., 6028, 6072, 6086, 6098, 6120, 6124, 6200, 6210, 6226, 6228, 6230, 6244, 6248, 6250, 6260, 6262, 6270, 6272, 6276, 6280, 6282, 6286, 6288, 6290, 6292, 6300, 6312, 6316, 6320, 6344, 6368, 6370, 6374, 6378, 6380, 6386, 6400, 6406, 6428, 6440, 6436, 6450, and/or 6452) that may be displayed during a shared content session may not be shown in Figures 19A-19AB. In addition, some of the applications, interfaces, and displayed elements discussed with respect to Figures 19A-19AB are similar to the applications, interfaces, and displayed elements discussed with respect to Figures 6A-6EQ. For example, the applications (e.g., 19004-2), interfaces (e.g., 19030, 19036, 19105, and/or 19140), control areas (e.g., 19082), and pills (e.g., 19102) described with respect to Figures 19A-19AB are similar to the applications (e.g., 6128), interfaces (e.g., 6130, 6140, 6150, and/or 6434), control areas (e.g., 6015), and pills (e.g., 6020) described with respect to Figures 6A-6EQ. Accordingly, details of these applications, interfaces, and displayed elements may not be repeated below for the sake of brevity.

In FIG. 19A, John's device 6000A, via display 6001A, displays a home screen 19002 (similar to home screen 6018) that includes various application icons 19004 that can be selected to launch a particular application. The application icons include a music app icon 19004-1, a TV app icon 19004-2 (e.g., similar to TV app icon 6128), a games app icon 19004-3, and a streaming app icon 19004-4. In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 19A-19AB, the applications associated with the music app icon 19004-1, the TV app icon 19004-2, and the games app icon 19004-3 are configured to support (e.g., enable) the sharing of content in a shared content session, and the application associated with the streaming app icon 19004-4 is not configured to support the sharing of content in a shared content session, as described in more detail below.

In FIG. 19A, John's device 6000A detects input 19006 on streaming app icon 19004-4 via display 6001A and, in response, launches a media streaming application associated with streaming app icon 19004-4, as shown in FIG. 19B. In FIG. 19B, John's device 6000A displays a streaming app UI 19008 that provides various options associated with a program called "Flying Forever," including a play affordance 19010 selectable to initiate playback of the program on John's device 6000A. Because the media streaming application does not support sharing of content in a shared content session, selecting the play affordance 19010 causes device 6000A to initiate playback of the program on device 6000A without triggering playback of the program for other user devices (e.g., user devices participating in the shared content session). In some embodiments, John's device 6000A begins playing the program without causing other devices to play the program, even if John's device 6000A is in a shared content session with other users.

The streaming app UI 19008 also includes a share affordance 19012 that is selectable to display a user interface for sharing the program with other users (e.g., user accounts associated with other devices). For example, in response to the input 19014, John's device 6000A displays the share interface 19015, as shown in FIG. 19C. In some embodiments, the share interface 19015 is a dynamic system interface provided by the operating system of the device 6000A that provides (e.g., automatically) various selectable options (e.g., shortcuts) for sharing content with other users. The appearance of the share interface 19015, and the functionality of the particular options provided in the share interface, are determined based on various factors, such as, for example, the content being shared, the application from which the share interface was accessed (e.g., application UI), contacts in a directory application of the device, the capabilities of the device, applications running on the device, user preferences, and/or user history (e.g., recent contacts). In FIG. 19C, the share interface 19015 is displayed over a portion of the streaming app UI 19008 and includes a representation 19016 of the content to be shared, which in the current embodiment is a representation of a program entitled "Forever Flight". The share interface 19015 provides a shortcut to share the selected content (e.g., "Forever Flight") to different users using different applications and capabilities of the device 6000A. The share interface 19015 can be dismissed by selecting the close affordance 19026. In some embodiments, the share interface 19015 can be dismissed in response to a system gesture (e.g., a gesture recognized by the operating system of the device 6000 to perform an action), such as, for example, a home gesture (e.g., a swipe gesture beginning at the bottom of the display 6001A (e.g., similar to gesture 6014)) or a tap input at a location outside the share interface 19015.

In region 19018 of sharing interface 19015, device 6000A displays icons 19020 corresponding to various applications and device capabilities that may be used to share content associated with the display of sharing interface 19015. In particular, the icons shown in FIG. 19C include an airsend icon 19020-1, a message icon 19020-2, a mail icon 19020-3, and a messenger icon 19020-4. Airsend icon 19020-1 may be selected to share content with another user device using a wireless connection (e.g., Bluetooth, near field communication, WiFi), hereinafter referred to as the airsend function. For example, in FIG. 19C, selecting the airsend icon 19020-1 causes the device 6000A to send (using a wireless connection) a link to another device that may be selected on the other device to cause the other device to access "permanent flight" for viewing (e.g., asynchronous viewing) on the other device. The message icon 19020-2 may be selected to share content with another user using a text messaging application operating on the device 6000A. For example, in FIG. 19C, selecting the message icon 19020-2 causes the device 6000A to create a text message (e.g., SMS, MMS) using a text messaging application, the message including a link to access "permanent flight". The mail icon 19020-3 may be selected to share content with another user using an email application operating on the device 6000A. In FIG. 19C, selecting the mail icon 19020-3 causes the device 6000A to create an email message using an email application, the email message including a link to access "permanent flight". Messenger icon 19020-4 may be selected to share content with another user using a messaging application (e.g., an instant messaging app) operating on device 6000A in a manner similar to that described above. In some embodiments, the icons displayed in area 19018 are scrollable to display additional icons in the area.

The sharing interface 19015 also includes an area 19022 that provides shortcuts for sharing content with a particular user (or group of users) using default application and/or device capabilities. For example, in FIG. 19C, the area 19022 includes shortcut affordances 19024. Each shortcut affordance includes an indication of a user or group of users with whom the content can be shared (e.g., "fly forever") and an indication of an application or device capability for sharing the content with the user. For example, shortcut affordance 19024-1 includes an identifier 19024-1A and a glyph 19024-1B. The identifier 19024-1A is an image and/or text representing a user named David Appleseed, and the glyph 19024-1B indicates that the content can be shared with David using the airsend function (e.g., as described above). Thus, in Figure 19C, by selecting shortcut affordance 19024-1, device 6000A shares "permanent flight" with David using the airsend function. Shortcut affordance 19024-2 includes an identifier 19024-2A that represents a group of users called climbers and a glyph 19024-2B that indicates that content may be shared with users in the climbers group using a text messaging application. In Figure 19C, shortcut affordance 19024-2 may be selected to cause device 6000A to share "permanent flight" with users in the climbers group using a text messaging application. Shortcut affordance 19024-3 includes an identifier 19024-3A and a glyph 19024-3B and may be selected to cause device 6000A to share content (e.g., "permanent flight") with Sarah using a text messaging application. Shortcut affordance 19024-4 includes identifier 19024-4A and glyph 19024-4B and can be selected to cause device 6000A to share content (e.g., "Flight Forever") with Andrew using an email application. In some embodiments, region 19022 can be scrolled to reveal additional shortcut affordances 19024.

The shortcuts displayed in area 19022 of FIG. 19C are non-limiting examples of shortcuts for sharing content. Other shortcuts may be displayed for sharing content with different users or groups of users by different sharing means (e.g., airsend, text message, email, shared content session, and/or instant messaging). Similarly, the icons in area 19018 are non-limiting examples of icons that may be selected for sharing content using different applications and device capabilities. Thus, content may be shared using different applications and device capabilities. In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 19C, various options (e.g., icons and/or shortcuts) are selectable for sharing "permanent flight". However, these options may be used for sharing other content, as described in more detail below.

19D, device 6000A displays TV app interface 19030 in response to detecting input 19028 on TV app icon 19004-2 of FIG. 19A. TV app interface 19030 is similar to TV app interface 6130 and includes various media options selectable to access content played on device 6000A using the TV app. In response to input 19032 on media option 19034, device 6000A displays launch interface 19036 (e.g., similar to launch interface 6140) for a program called "The Magician," as shown in FIG. 19E. Launch interface 19036 includes play option 19038 and shared affordance 19040, similar to shared affordance 19012. Play option 19038 is similar to play option 6144 and can be selected to begin playing the "The Magician" program. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 19E, John's device 6000A is not currently participating in a shared content session. Thus, by selecting the play option 19038, the device 6000A initiates playback of the "Magician" program on the device 6000A without causing playback of the program on devices associated with other user accounts, e.g., similar to one or more of the embodiments described above with respect to FIGS. 6AA-6AF. However, if John's device was participating in a shared content session, selecting the play option 19038 would initiate playback of the "Magician" program for the shared content session, e.g., similar to one or more of the embodiments described above with respect to FIGS. 6AN-6CH. In some embodiments, the play option 19038 can have a different appearance (e.g., including text that reads "Watch Together") depending on whether John's device 6000A is participating in a shared content session.

In response to detecting the input 19042 on the share affordance 19040, John's device 6000A displays a share interface 19015, as shown in FIG. 19F. In FIG. 19F, the share interface 19015 has a different appearance than FIG. 19C, and instead of being configured to share "Permanent Flight", the option shown in FIG. 19F is selectable to share the "Magician" program. Thus, the share interface 19015 includes a representation 19044 indicating that the "Magician" program is content that can be shared using various options provided in the share interface 19015. Furthermore, because the "Magician" program can be shared in a shared content session (e.g., the TV application supports sharing content in a shared content session), the share interface 19015 includes additional options associated with sharing the program in a shared content session. For example, the share interface 19015 includes a selectable option 19045 to initiate a process for sharing content (e.g., the "Magician" program) in a shared content session. Additionally, region 19022 is updated to include a shortcut affordance 19024-5 that is selectable to share content (e.g., the "Magician") show with the climbers group in a shared content session. The shortcut affordance 19024-5 includes an identifier 19024-5A that represents the climbers group and a glyph 19024-5B that indicates that the content may be shared with the climbers group in a shared content session. In some embodiments, the shortcut affordance 19024-5 is displayed when John's device 6000A is in a live communication session (e.g., a video chat and/or audio call) with the climbers group, and is not displayed at other times.

In FIG. 19F, the options in the share interface 19015 are configured to share the "Magician" program. Some of the options are similar to those described above with respect to FIG. 19C, except that the options are used to share "Magician" instead of "Fly Permanently". For example, in response to an input 19046 on the shortcut affordance 19024-2, John's device 6000A uses a messaging application to create a message to share the "Magician" program with the climber group, as shown in FIG. 19G. In FIG. 19G, John's device 6000A displays a messaging interface 19048 that includes a message conversation area 19050 (which in some embodiments includes previous messages sent between members of the climber group) and a composition field 19052 pre-populated with a link 19054 to the "Magician" program. The send affordance 19056 is selectable to send the link 19054 to members of the climber group. Members of the climber group can select the link received on their respective devices to begin watching the "Magician" program on their respective devices. In some embodiments, members of a group of climbers can watch a program asynchronously (e.g., if their device is not participating in a shared content session). In some embodiments, members of a group of climbers can watch a program simultaneously with other members of the group (e.g., if their device is participating in a shared content session).

19H-19O, similar to FIGS. 6A-6EO, Jane's device 6000B is shown along with John's device 6000A to show the interfaces displayed on each device. In FIG. 19H, John's device 6000A is not currently in a shared content session with Jane's device 6000B. Jane's device 6000B displays a home screen 19058. John's device 6000A displays an invitation interface 19060 in response to an input 19062 on option 19045 of FIG. 19F. The invitation interface 19060 provides an interface for selecting one or more recipients (e.g., contacts) of an invitation to view content (e.g., "Magician" as indicated by identifier 19072) in a shared content session. In some embodiments, a user can manually enter a recipient by typing contact information into recipient field 19064 using keyboard 19066. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A (e.g., automatically) suggests various contacts to be selected as recipients of the invitation.

19H, John's device 6000A displays contact options 19068 that can be selected to add a corresponding contact to the recipient field 19064. For example, in FIG. 19H, the climbers option 19068-1 is selected as a recipient of the invitation via input 19070. In some embodiments, the climbers option 19068-1 is indicated as being a recipient, for example, by displaying "Climbers" in the recipient field 19064 and/or visually enhancing (e.g., highlighting) the option 19068-1. Sarah and Andrew can be selected as recipients as well. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A pre-populates (e.g., automatically selects) one or more contacts in the recipient field 19064. For example, if John's device 6000A is currently in a live communication session (e.g., video chat) with a particular contact (e.g., user) or group of contacts, John's device displays the invitation interface 19060 with the contact pre-populated in the recipient field 19064.

The invitation interface 19060 also includes call options 19074 and 19076 that may be selected to initiate a live communication session (during which content may be shared) with the selected recipient. For example, selecting audio option 19076 (e.g., via input 19078) initiates an audio call (without a live video feed) with the selected recipient. Selecting video option 19074 initiates a video call (e.g., video chat and/or video conference) with the selected recipient. In response to detecting input 19070 on option 19068-1 and input 19080 on video option 19074, John's device 6000A initiates a video call with members of the climber group, as shown in FIG. 19I. In some embodiments, the video call may be considered a shared content session, as content may be shared with members of the climber group during the video call, as described in more detail below. In some embodiments, the user interfaces shown in FIG. 19I on John's device 6000A and Jane's device 6000B may be displayed (e.g., without displaying the invitation interface 19060) in response to selection of the shortcut affordance 19024-5 via the input 19094 of FIG. 19F. In other words, selecting the shortcut affordance 19024-5 initiates a shared content session with the climbers group without having to select the climbers group as the recipient of the invitation using the invitation interface 19060.

In FIG. 19I, John's device 6000A removes the invite interface 19060 and displays a control area 19082A similar to control area 6015A and a banner 19084 indicating that the "Magician" program is available to be shared with other members of the climber group during a shared content session. The banner 19084 includes a start affordance 19086 that can be selected to start playback of "Magician" with other members of the climber group who are participating in the shared content session. John's device 6000A also updates the launch interface 19036 to include text 19088 indicating that starting playback of "Magician" will share the program with participants in the video call.

In FIG. 19I, Jane's device 6000B receives the invitation to join the video call initiated by John's device 6000A and displays control area 19082B (similar to control area 6015B). Control area 19082B includes selectable option 19090 for joining the video call. In response to detecting a selection of option 19090 via input 19092, Jane's device 6000B joins the video call with other members of the climber group, as shown in FIG. 19J.

In FIG. 19J, Jane and Ryan are participating in a video call. Jane's device 6000B displays a video call interface 19100 (similar to video conference interface 6170B). In response to detecting input 19096 on start affordance 19086 or input 19098 on play option 19038, John's device 6000A starts playing "The Magician" for the Mountaineer group, as shown in FIG. 19K. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A displays a prompt (similar to prompt 6220) in response to input 19098 to provide the user with an opportunity to indicate whether playback of the content should occur on the local device only (e.g., on device 6000A only) or for the group (e.g., in a shared content session). Conversely, no such prompt is displayed in response to input 19096, since banner 19084 is associated with a shared content session, and thus selection of start affordance 19086 is understood to start playback of the group's content.

In FIG. 19K, John's device 6000A displays a media PiP 19105A (similar to media PiP 6150A) with playback controls 19104 (similar to playback controls 6152) and begins playing "The Magician" for the Climbers group. John's device is participating in a shared content session with members of the Climbers group, as indicated, for example, by the display of pill 19102 (similar to pill 6020). Jane's device 6000B displays a banner 19106, prompting Jane to begin viewing "The Magician" with the Climbers group. In response to detecting an input 19108 selecting the open affordance 19110, Jane's device begins playing "The Magician," as shown in FIG. 19L. In some embodiments, when content is started for the group (e.g., in response to input 19096), Jane's device 6000B begins playing the content immediately without displaying the banner 19106.

In FIG. 19L, John's device 6000A continues playing "The Magician" and Jane's device 6000B displays media PiP 19105B and begins playing "The Magician" beginning at the same elapsed time as John's device. Thus, playback of "The Magician" is synchronized across participants in the climber group, as described in more detail with respect to FIGS. 6A-6EQ.

FIGS. 19M-19O show an embodiment in which, instead of detecting inputs 19096 or 19098 of FIG. 19J, John's device 6000A detects input 19112 on back affordance 19114. In response to input 19112 of FIG. 19J, John's device 6000A displays TV app interface 19030 and continues to display banner 19084 with control area 19082A and start affordance 19086. John's device 6000A detects input 19116 on media option 19118 representing a movie called "Python Bay."

19N, John's device 6000A displays a launch interface 19120 in response to input 19116 while continuing to display control area 19082A, banner 19084, and start affordance 19086. Launch interface 19120 includes a play option 19122 that is selectable to start playing the Climbers group's "Python Bay." In response to input 19126 on the start affordance 19086, John's device 6000A starts playing "The Magician," as described above with respect to FIG. 19K. In response to input 19124 on play option 19122, John's device 6000A starts playing the Climbers group's "Python Bay," as shown in FIG. 19O.

In FIG. 19O, John's device 6000A begins playing "Python Bay" and displays media PiP 19105A showing scenes from "Python Bay." Jane's device 6000B displays banner 19128 inviting Jane to join the group of climbers watching "Python Bay." In some embodiments, instead of displaying banner 19128, Jane's device 6000B automatically begins playing "Python Bay" in sync with the playback of "Python Bay" on John's device.

FIG. 19P illustrates an embodiment similar to that shown in FIG. 19F, except that John's device 6000A is currently active in a shared content session with the climbers group, as indicated by the display of pill 19102. While displaying the sharing interface 19015, John's device 6000A detects input 19130 on shortcut affordance 19024-5 and, in response, displays prompt 19132 inviting the user to play "The Magician" in the shared content session, as shown in FIG. 19Q.

In FIG. 19Q, John's device 6000A detects input 19134 on option 19136 of prompt 19132 and, in response, begins playing "The Magician" for the climber group, as shown in FIG. 19R. In some embodiments, John's device immediately begins playing "The Magician" in response to input 19130 (as shown in FIG. 19R) without displaying prompt 19132.

19S-19Y illustrate an embodiment for sharing music content in a shared content session. In FIG. 19S, John's device 6000A displays music interface 19140A (similar to music interface 6434A) in response to input 19141 on music app icon 19004-1 of FIG. 19A. In FIG. 19S, John's device 6000A detects input 19142 at option affordance 19144 and in response displays menu 19146, as shown in FIG. 19T. Menu 19146 includes various options associated with managing "Album 1," music provided using the music app, including shared album option 19146-1 and share option 19146-2. Shared album option 19146-1 is selectable to display various options for sharing "Album 1," and share option 19146-2 is selectable to share "Album 1" in a shared content session, as described in more detail below.

In response to detecting input 19148 on shared album option 19146-1, John's device 6000A displays a sharing interface 19015, as shown in FIG. 19U. The sharing interface 19015 is updated (with respect to the embodiment shown in FIG. 19F) such that the options displayed within the sharing interface 19015 are selectable to share "Album 1" in a manner similar to that described above with respect to sharing "Magician". The sharing interface 19015 includes a sharing option 19152, which is similar to option 19045 of FIG. 19F, except that the sharing option 19152 is selectable to share "Album 1" instead of "Magician". The sharing interface options shown in FIG. 19U are non-limiting examples. In some embodiments, the options provided in the sharing interface 19015 include any of the options discussed above with respect to FIG. 19F, except that an option may be selected to share music (e.g., "Album 1") instead of video content.

In FIG. 19U, John's device 6000A detects input 19154 on share option 19152 and responsively displays an invite interface 19060, as shown in FIG. 19V. In some embodiments, the invite interface 19060 is displayed in response to input 19150 on share option 19164-2 of FIG. 19T. As shown in FIG. 19V, the recipient can select to receive an invitation to share "Album 1" in a shared content session in a manner similar to that described above with respect to FIG. 19H. For example, in response to detecting input 19156 on climbers option 19068-1 and input 19158 on video call option 19074, John's device 6000A initiates a video call with the climbers group so that "Album 1" may be shared with members of the climbers group, as shown in FIG. 19W. In some embodiments, in response to detecting input 19150 or input 19154, John's device 6000A initiates sharing of "Album 1" with one or more users without displaying the invitation interface 19060, for example, if John's device is currently in a shared content session (or live communication session) with the respective users (e.g., similar to selection of shortcut affordance 19024-5). In some embodiments, the sharing interface 19015 includes a shortcut affordance similar to shortcut affordance 19024-5 that can be selected to automatically initiate playback of "Album 1" with a user or group of users without displaying the invitation interface 19060.

19W-19Y show both John's device 6000A and Jane's device 6000B, both of which are participating in a video call with a group of climbers, similar to the embodiment shown in FIG. 19J. In FIG. 19W, Jane's device 6000B displays a video call interface 19100 and a control area 19082B indicating that Jane is in a video call with the group of climbers. John's device 6000A displays a music interface 19140A with a control area 19082A and a banner 19160 indicating that "Album 1" is available to be played for the group of climbers in a shared content session. The music interface 19140A includes a play option 19164 and text 19162 indicating that starting playback of "Album 1" will share music with the participants of the video call. In some embodiments, selecting the play option 19164 starts playback of "Album 1" for the group of climbers. In some embodiments, selecting the play option 19164 begins playing "Album 1" on John's device without playing music on the devices of the climber group members. In some embodiments, selecting the play option 19164 displays a prompt that the user can select to indicate whether to play "Album 1" on John's device or to play "Album 1" for the climber group.

Banner 19160 includes a start affordance 19166 that can be selected to begin playing "Album 1" for the Climbers group. In response to detecting a selection of start affordance 19166 via input 19168, John's device 6000A begins playing a song from "Album 1" as shown in FIG. 19X, as indicated by the updated appearance of music interface 19140A (e.g., displaying playback control 19174), the display of banner 19172, and the output of audio 19170A output at John's device 6000A via speaker 6007A. Jane's device 6000B displays banner 19176, indicating that "Album 1" has been shared with members of the Climbers group and can be played at Jane's device 6000B by selecting affordance 19178.

In FIG. 19Y, John's device 6000A continues playing the song from "Album 1" while Jane's device 6000B begins playing the song from "Album 1" in response to input 19180 on affordance 19178 in FIG. 19X. Jane's device 6000B outputs the song's audio via speaker 6007B, as indicated by audio 19170B. The song playback is synchronized to the members of the climber group. Thus, when Jane's device 6000B begins playing the song from "Album 1", the song starts at the same elapsed time as the song on John's device 6000A, such that the audio being played on Jane's device 6000B is synchronized with the audio playback on John's device 6000A.

19Z-19AB illustrate embodiments for sharing content (e.g., a video feed or screen share content) in a shared content session while a game is being played on device 6000A. In FIG. 19Z, John's device 6000A displays a game interface 19182 (e.g., in response to input 19184 on game app icon 19004-3 of FIG. 19A). In FIG. 19Z, while the game is being played, John's device 6000A detects input 19186 on options affordance 19188 and, in response, displays an options menu for the game including share option 19190, as shown in FIG. 19AA. Share option 19190 is selectable to initiate sharing of game content in a shared content session.

In response to detecting the input 19192 on the share option 19190, John's device 6000A displays an invite interface 19060, as shown in FIG. 19AB. The invite interface 19060 can be used to select the recipient of the invite to view the content in the shared content session (as described above). In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 19Z-19AB, the content of John's screen (e.g., screen share content) is shared with other devices, so that, for example, users can watch in real time as John plays a game. In some embodiments, John's device 6000A can automatically share the content of its screen with participants of the ongoing live communication or shared content session in response to the input 19192 (without displaying the invite interface 19060). The sharing of screen content is similar to the embodiments described above with respect to FIGS. 6N-6V and 6DC-6DE, and therefore the details will not be repeated here.

20A and 20B are flow diagrams illustrating a method for managing a shared content session using a computer system (e.g., 6000), according to some embodiments. Method 2000 is performed in a computer system (e.g., 6000) (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, desktop, or laptop computer) in communication with one or more display generation components (e.g., 6001) (e.g., a display controller, a touch-sensitive display system, a projector, and/or a holographic display) and one or more input devices (e.g., 6001, 6002, and/or 6003) (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, one or more optical sensors for detecting gestures, one or more capacitive sensors for detecting hover inputs, and/or an accelerometer/gyroscope/inertial measurement unit). Some operations of method 2000 are optionally combined, the order of some operations is optionally changed, and some operations are optionally omitted.

As described below, method 2000 provides an intuitive way to manage a shared content session. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user to manage a shared content session, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated computing devices, allowing a user to manage a shared content session more quickly and efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges.

In method 2000, while displaying a representation (e.g., a representation of media (e.g., audio and/or video) content) of a first content (e.g., 19036, 19140, and/or 19182) via one or more display generation components (e.g., 6001), a computer system (e.g., 6000) receives (2002) one or more inputs (e.g., 19042, 19142, 19148, and/or 19186) via one or more input devices (e.g., 6001, 6002, and/or 6003) corresponding to a request to display options associated with the first content.

In response to receiving one or more inputs corresponding to a request to display options associated with the first content (e.g., 19042, 19142, 19148, and/or 19186), the computer system (e.g., 6000), via one or more display generation components (e.g., 6001), displays (2004) a respective user interface (e.g., 19015) associated with the first content (e.g., a user interface that may be used to perform multiple different actions on the respective content item) (in some embodiments, the respective user interface is overlaid on a home screen and/or another user interface (e.g., a user interface of an application)).

The separate user interface (e.g., 19015 and/or 19146) includes a first graphical user interface object (e.g., 19045, 19024-5, 19152, 19164-2, and/or 19190) (e.g., a share affordance) selectable to initiate a process for performing a first operation associated with the first content (2006). The first operation includes sharing the first content in a live communication session (e.g., a real-time communication session in which audio and/or video data is communicated with one or more external computer systems (e.g., one or more computer systems of one or more participants in the communication session) (e.g., a video chat). Displaying a separate user interface including a first graphical user interface object selectable to initiate a process for performing the first operation, the first operation associated with the first content, the first operation including sharing the first content in the live communication session, reduces the number of inputs required to share the first content in the live communication session, reduces the number of inputs required to perform the operation, and provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

The respective user interfaces (e.g., 19015 and/or 19146) also include second graphical user interface objects (e.g., 19024-1, 19024-2, 19024-3, 19024-4, 19020-1, 19020-2, 19020-3, 19020-4, and/or 19146-1) selectable to initiate a process for performing a second action associated with the first content (e.g., copying a link associated with the first content, sending a copy of or a link to the first content (e.g., via email, text messaging, and/or wireless communication (e.g., Bluetooth)), adding the first content to a library and/or playlist, indicating a preference for the first content, and/or requesting that the first content be played next or last in a playlist) (2008). The second action is different from the first action.

While displaying the respective user interfaces (e.g., 19015 and/or 19146), the computer system (e.g., 6000) receives (2010) a selection input (e.g., 19046, 19062, 19094, 19130, 19148, 19150, 19154, and/or 19192) directed to the respective user interfaces. In response to receiving the selection input directed to the respective user interfaces at 2012, the computer system performs the following steps: In accordance with a determination that the selection input (e.g., 19062, 19094, 19130, 19150, 19154, and/or 19192) corresponds to a selection of a first graphical user interface object (e.g., 19045, 19024-5, 19152, 19164-2, and/or 19190), the computer system initiates (2014) a process for sharing the first content in the live communication session (e.g., by transmitting data to an external computer system (e.g., a computer system of a participant of the communication session) to access the first content) without initiating a process for performing a second operation (e.g., sharing immediately without displaying an intervening option and/or receiving additional input, or displaying additional options associated with sharing the first content in the live communication session and/or receiving additional input). In some embodiments, in response to receiving the selection input, in accordance with a determination that the selection input does not correspond to a selection of the first graphical user interface object, the computer system ceases to initiate a process for sharing the first content in the live communication session. In response to receiving a selection input directed to the respective user interface, and in accordance with a determination that the selection input (e.g., 19046 and/or 19148) corresponds to a selection of a second graphical user interface object (e.g., 19024-1, 19024-2, 19024-3, 19024-4, 19020-1, 19020-2, 19020-3, 19020-4, and/or 19146-1), the computer system initiates a process for performing a second operation (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19G) without initiating a process for sharing the first content in the live communication session (2016).

In some embodiments, the second operation includes sharing the first content in a manner other than a live communication session (e.g., 19054 is shared on messaging interface 19048 as shown in FIG. 19G) (e.g., sharing the first content (e.g., a copy of the first content and/or a link to the first content) via email, text messaging, a third party app, and/or wireless communication (e.g., Bluetooth). Sharing the first content in a manner other than a live communication session provides multiple options for sharing the first content, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, initiating a process for sharing the first content in the live communication session includes, in accordance with a determination that the live communication session is active (e.g., currently ongoing) (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19P), the computer system (e.g., 6000) shares (e.g., immediately shares) the first content in the active live communication session (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19R) (e.g., immediately shares the first content in the active live communication session without displaying an intervening option and/or receiving additional input for sharing the first content). Sharing the first content in the active live communication session in accordance with a determination that the live communication session is active includes automatically sharing the first content in the active live communication session, which performs an operation when a set of conditions are met without requiring further user input.

In some embodiments, initiating a process for sharing the first content in a live communication session includes a computer system (e.g., 6000, 6000A) initiating a live communication session with one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000, 6000B) in accordance with a determination that the live communication session is not active (e.g., not currently in progress) (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19F and/or FIG. 19U) and displaying a selectable option (e.g., 19038, 19086, 19164, and/or 19166) (e.g., a playback affordance) to initiate playback of the first content (e.g., at the computer system, simultaneously with the one or more external computer systems participating in the live communication session). In some embodiments, the live communication session is initiated and the option is displayed without initiating playback of the first content (e.g., without immediately initiating playback of the first content (e.g., at the computer system and/or the external computer system). Displaying a selectable option to initiate a live communication session with one or more external computer systems and to initiate playback of the first content pursuant to a determination that the live communication session is not active provides a user with an option to automatically initiate a live communication session and initiate playback of the first content, which performs an action when a set of conditions are met without requiring further user input, and provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, displaying a selectable option for initiating playback of the first content includes displaying an option (e.g., 19038 and/or 19164) in a user interface of an application (e.g., 19036 and/or 19140) (e.g., a media application) configured to operate on the computer system (e.g., 6000). Displaying the option in a user interface of the application configured to operate on the computer system provides the user with an option in the application user interface for initiating playback of the first content, providing additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, displaying the selectable options for initiating playback of the first content includes the computer system (e.g., 6000) displaying a prompt (e.g., 19088 and/or 19162) for initiating playback of the first content in the live communication session within a user interface (e.g., 19036 and/or 19140) of an application configured to operate on the computer system. Displaying the prompt for initiating playback of the first content in the live communication session provides the user with visual feedback of an operation that may be performed on the computer system, which provides improved visual feedback. In some embodiments, the prompt is a graphical image and/or text that notifies the user of the computer system that playing the first content will cause the content to be played on the computer system and that the first content will be shared via the live communication session.

In some embodiments, displaying a selectable option to initiate playback of the first content includes the computer system (e.g., 6000) displaying an option (e.g., 19038, 19086, 19164, and/or 19166) simultaneously with one or more control options (e.g., 19082) for the live communication session (e.g., microphone mute/unmute option, camera feed enable/disable option, audio mute/unmute option, selectable option to display a messaging interface, and/or selectable option to initiate/end a screen sharing session) (e.g., one or more selectable shared content session function options that, when selected, cause the computer system to perform a respective function associated with the shared content session). Displaying a selectable option to initiate playback of the first content simultaneously with one or more control options for the live communication session conveniently provides the user with control operations for controlling one or more aspects of the live communication session and for initiating playback of the first content, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface. In some embodiments, the control options are displayed within a shared content session object that includes information associated with the shared content session. In some embodiments, the selectable option to initiate playback of the first content is displayed visually distinct (e.g., separately) from the shared content session object (e.g., as a banner or graphical object below the shared content session object). In some embodiments, the control option and the selectable option to initiate playback of the first content are displayed together within the shared content session object.

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000) is displaying selectable options (e.g., 19038, 19086, 19164, and/or 19166) for initiating playback of a first content, the computer system receives a request to display second content (e.g., second media) that is different from the first content (e.g., one or more inputs instructing the computer system to navigate to the displayed second content (e.g., opening a different application, selecting a different song, program, and/or movie content)) (e.g., 19112 and/or 19116). In response to receiving a request to display the second content, different from the first content, the computer system displays a representation of the second content (e.g., 19118, 19120, and/or 19122) (e.g., a representation of the second media content (e.g., a title screen, a playback affordance, text associated with the second content, and/or graphic art associated with the second content)) simultaneously with (e.g., while maintaining a display of) a selectable option to initiate playback of the first content (e.g., 19086). Displaying a representation of the second content simultaneously with an option that is selectable to initiate playback of the first content allows a user to navigate to other content while maintaining the option to initiate playback of the first content, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000) displays a representation of a second content (e.g., 19120) simultaneously with a selectable option to initiate playback of the first content (e.g., 19086), the computer system receives a first input (e.g., 19126 and/or 19124). In response to receiving the first input, and in accordance with a determination that the first input (e.g., 19126) is directed to a selectable option to initiate playback of the first content (e.g., 19086), the computer system shares the first content in a live communication session (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19K) (e.g., initiate playback of the first content at the computer system while the first content is simultaneously output (e.g., played) by one or more external computer systems participating in the live communication session). In response to receiving the first input, and in accordance with a determination that the first input (e.g., 19124) is directed to a representation of the second content (e.g., 19122), the computer system shares the second content in a live communication session (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19O) (e.g., initiates playback of the second content on the computer system while the second content is simultaneously output (e.g., played) by one or more external computer systems participating in the live communication session).

In some embodiments, a second option (e.g., 19106, 19110, 19128, 19176, and/or 19178) selectable to initiate playback of the first content (e.g., at a respective external computer system) is displayed at one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B) after the one or more external computer systems participate in a live communication session with the computer system (e.g., 6000A) (e.g., the second option is displayed at the external computer system while the external computer system participates in the live communication session with the computer system and while the first content is not being output at the external computer system (in some embodiments, the first content is being output at the computer system but not at the external computer system)). In some embodiments, in response to detecting a selection of the second option, the external computer system initiates playback of the first content at the external computer system, and playback of the first content is synchronized with playback of the first content at the computer system. In some embodiments, the external computer system begins playing the first content at an elapsed time that is synchronized with the elapsed time of the first content on the computer system (e.g., the first content does not begin playing at the beginning of the first content, but instead begins at the playback time currently being output on the computer system).

In some embodiments, initiating a process for sharing the first content in a live communication session includes, in accordance with a determination (e.g., of FIG. 19F, 19U, and/or 19AA) that the live communication session is not active (e.g., not currently in progress), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays an invitation user interface (e.g., 19060) including one or more options (e.g., 19068) for selecting participants to join the live communication session. Displaying an invitation user interface including one or more options for selecting participants to join the live communication session provides a user with an option to select participants to be invited to the live communication session when the live communication session is not currently active, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface. In some embodiments, an option is selectable to add participants to the invitation to join the live communication session.

In some embodiments, the invitation user interface (e.g., 19060) includes an audio option (e.g., 19076) (e.g., an audio call affordance) and a video option (e.g., 19074) (e.g., a video call affordance). While the computer system (e.g., 6000) is displaying the invitation user interface, the computer system detects a selection input (e.g., 19078, 19080, and/or 19158) directed to the invitation user interface. Displaying the invitation user interface including the audio option and the video option provides additional control for selecting a type of live communication session, which provides additional control without cluttering the user interface. In response to detecting the selection input directed to the invitation user interface, and in accordance with a determination that the selection input (e.g., 19078) corresponds to a selection of the audio option (e.g., 19076), the computer system initiates a live communication session including a live audio feed without a live video feed (e.g., initiates a live communication session with the selected participants, where the live communication session includes a live audio feed but does not include a live video feed). In response to detecting a selection input directed to the invitation user interface, and in accordance with a determination that the selection input (e.g., 19080 and/or 19158) corresponds to a selection of the video option (e.g., 19074), the computer system initiates a live communication session including a live audio feed and a live video feed (e.g., initiates a live communication session with the selected participant, the live communication session including a live audio feed and a live video feed). In some embodiments, initiating the live communication session includes sending an invitation to a computer system of the selected participant (e.g., an external computer system) to join the live communication session.

In some embodiments, initiating a process for sharing the first content in the live communication session includes, in accordance with a determination that the first graphical user interface object (e.g., 19015) does not include an indication of one or more participants for the live communication session (e.g., 19024-5), the computer system (e.g., 6000) displays (e.g., before starting the live communication session) a prompt (e.g., 19060) for selecting one or more participants for the live communication session (e.g., an invitation user interface). In accordance with a determination that the first graphical user interface object includes an indication of one or more participants (e.g., 19024-5), the computer system initiates the live communication session with the indicated one or more participants (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19R) without displaying a prompt for selecting one or more participants for the live communication session. Initiating a live communication session with the indicated one or more participants without displaying a prompt to select one or more participants for the live communication session in accordance with a determination that the first graphical user interface object includes an indication of the one or more participants, automatically initiating a live communication session with the participants without requiring a user to select a participant, the participant performing an action when a set of conditions is met without requiring further user input. In some embodiments, initiating a live communication session with the indicated one or more participants includes initiating a live communication session with the first participant (or the first group of participants) in accordance with a determination that the first graphical user interface object includes an indication of the first participant (or the first group of participants). Initiating a live communication session with a second participant (or the second group of participants) without initiating a live communication session with the first participant (or the first group of participants) in accordance with a determination that the first graphical user interface object includes an indication of a second participant (or the second group of participants) different from the first participant (or the first group of participants).

In some embodiments, while a computer system (e.g., 6000) displays a representation of third content (e.g., 19008, 19036, and/or 19140) that is different from the first content (e.g., a representation of a third media), the computer system receives one or more inputs (e.g., 19014, 19042, 19142, and/or 19148) corresponding to a request to display options associated with the third content. In response to the computer system receiving the one or more inputs corresponding to the request to display options associated with the third content, the computer system displays a separate user interface (e.g., 19015) associated with the third content (e.g., a user interface that can be used to perform multiple different actions on the third content) (in some embodiments, the separate user interface associated with the third content is similar to the separate user interface associated with the first content). Displaying a separate user interface associated with the third content includes, in accordance with a determination that the third content is configured to be shared in the live communication session (e.g., the third content is shareable in the live communication session), the computer system displaying a separate user interface associated with the third content including a third graphical user interface object (e.g., 19045, 19024-5, and/or 19152) (e.g., a share affordance) selectable to initiate a process for sharing the third content in the live communication session (in some embodiments, the third graphical user interface object is similar to the first graphical user interface object). Displaying a separate user interface associated with the third content includes, in accordance with a determination that the third content is not configured to be shared in a live communication session (e.g., the third content cannot be shared in a live communication session), the computer system displaying a separate user interface associated with the third content without a third graphical user interface object (e.g., 19015 shown in FIG. 19C ) selectable to initiate a process for sharing the third content in the live communication session (in some embodiments, the separate user interface associated with the third content includes a fourth graphical user interface object (e.g., similar to the second graphical user interface object) selectable to initiate a process for performing a fourth operation associated with the third content). Displaying a separate user interface with a third graphical user interface object selectable to initiate a process for sharing the third content in the live communication session in accordance with a determination that the third content is configured to be shared in a live communication session selectively provides a control option for sharing the third content in the live communication session, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

In some embodiments, displaying a separate user interface (e.g., 19015) associated with the first content includes the computer system displaying a separate user interface having a first appearance (e.g., 19015 of FIG. 19C) (e.g., having a particular format, layout, color, and/or design) in accordance with a determination that the first content is associated with a first application (e.g., 19004-4) (e.g., a third-party application or a system-level application in the computer system). In some embodiments, displaying a separate user interface associated with the first content includes the computer system displaying a separate user interface having a first appearance (e.g., 19015 of FIG. 19F) in accordance with a determination that the first content is associated with a second application (e.g., 19004-2) different from the first application. Displaying a separate user interface having a first appearance in accordance with a determination that the first content is associated with the first or second application provides a consistent user interface for sharing the first content across multiple applications in the computer system, which provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface. In some embodiments, the separate user interfaces are the same user interfaces that are displayed for multiple different applications running on the computer system.

In some embodiments, the individual user interface (e.g., 19015 and/or 19146) associated with the first content is a system user interface (e.g., a user interface provided and/or controlled by an operating system of the computer system (e.g., 6000) (e.g., without a third-party application installed on the computer system). In some embodiments, the live communication session (e.g., as shown in any of Figures 19I-19O and/or 19W-19Y) and/or the sharing of content in the live communication session (e.g., as shown in Figures 19L and/or 19Y) are system functions performed and/or controlled using the operating system of the computer system.

In some embodiments, the individual user interface (e.g., 19146) associated with the first content is an application menu (e.g., a drop-down menu, a pop-up menu, and/or a menu for an application running on the computer system). In some embodiments, the application menu includes options for the individual application (e.g., 19004-1) (e.g., a music application, a media application, a video application) including options not related to sharing content or a live communication session (e.g., an option to add the content to a library, an option to add the content to a playlist, an option to play the content next, an option to play the content last, and/or an option to indicate a content preference, as shown in FIG. 19T).

In some embodiments, displaying the respective user interface (e.g., 19015) includes the computer system (e.g., 6000) displaying a representation of the first content (e.g., 19044) (e.g., a name, an image, text, and/or graphics representative of the first content).

In some embodiments, the output of the first content at the computer system (e.g., 6000A) is synchronized with the output of the first content at one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B) participating in the live communication session (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19L and/or 19Y) (e.g., the first content is synchronized content (e.g., audio and/or video data whose output is synchronized at the computer system and the one or more external computer systems)). In some embodiments, data identifying the first content, the position of the first content, and/or actions controlling the output of the first content (e.g., stop, play, pause, fast forward, rewind, and/or track skip) are exchanged via the shared content session without transmitting the actual first content. In some embodiments, the output of the content is synchronized with the output of the content at one or more external computer systems participating in the live communication session in a manner similar to any of the embodiments discussed with respect to FIG. 6A-6EQ, 7-13, 14A-14AG, 15-18, 19A-19AB, and 20A-20B.

In some embodiments, the first content includes video content (e.g., web videos, movies, and/or TV content) that is synchronized at a computer system (e.g., 6000A) participating in a live communication session (as shown in FIG. 19L) and one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B).

In some embodiments, the first content includes audio content (e.g., music) that is synchronized at a computer system (e.g., 6000A) participating in a live communication session and at one or more external computer systems (e.g., 6000B) (e.g., as shown in FIG. 19Y).

In some embodiments, the first content is screen sharing content (e.g., as discussed with respect to FIGS. 19Z-19AB) (e.g., image data generated by a device (e.g., a computer system, an external computer system) that provides a real-time representation of image or video content currently displayed at the device) (e.g., a screen and/or application interface displayed by a computer system connected via a live communication session and/or shared content session). In some embodiments, the screen sharing content is similar to that discussed with respect to any of FIGS. 6A-6EQ, 7-13, 14A-14AG, 15-18, 19A-19AB, and 20A-20B.

In some embodiments, the separate user interface associated with the first content includes a user interface of an application (e.g., 19182) (e.g., a third-party application, a system-level application in the computer system) operating in the computer system (e.g., 6000). A first graphical user interface object (e.g., 19190) is displayed within the user interface of the application and is selectable to initiate a live communication session to share content from the application. Displaying the first graphical user interface object within the user interface of the application provides a control option to initiate a live communication session to share content from the application without requiring the user to navigate to a separate user interface, which reduces the number of inputs required to perform an action and provides additional control options without cluttering the user interface.

It should be noted that the details of the processes (e.g., FIGS. 20A-20B) described above with respect to method 2000 are also applicable in a similar manner to the methods described above. For example, methods 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, 1600, 1700, and/or 1800 optionally include one or more of the characteristics of the various methods described above with reference to method 2000. For the sake of brevity, these details are not repeated.

The various embodiments provided herein are generally described using devices 6000 and 1400. However, it should be understood that other computer systems or devices may be used (in addition to or instead of devices 6000/1400) to participate in a shared content session, and various aspects of the shared content session may be implemented in different ways across the various devices participating in the shared content session. For example, a smart speaker, optionally including a display component, may be used to participate in a shared content session. In some embodiments, input on the smart speaker may be provided verbally and optionally via touch input, and output may be audio output and optionally visual output provided on a connected display component. As another example, the display component of a head mounted device (HMD) may be used to display the visual aspects of the shared content session (and the speaker used to generate audio), and input may be received by detecting gestures, gaze, hand movements, audio input, touch input, or the like. In some embodiments, the user interface shown in the figure may be displayed in an augmented reality environment, such as augmented reality or virtual reality. For example, the video tiles, windows, and/or other display regions shown in the figures may be displayed suspended within the three-dimensional environment. As another example, representations of users or participants may be displayed as simulated three-dimensional or two-dimensional avatars positioned around the three-dimensional environment rather than as video tiles or windows in a videoconferencing application. Additionally, although embodiments are described herein using various types of input, such as taps, drags, clicks, and hover gestures, it should be understood that the described embodiments may be modified to respond to other forms of input, including gestures, gaze, hand movements, audio input, and the like. In addition, different devices with different capabilities can be combined in a single shared content session, for example, a smartphone, a tablet, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a smart speaker, a smart TV, headphones or earphones, an HMD, and/or a smart watch (or a subset thereof) can participate in the same shared content session with different devices participating in different ways according to the capabilities of the device (e.g., an HMD presenting content in a simulated three-dimensional or augmented reality environment, a smart speaker providing audio output and input, a headphone providing spatial audio output and audio input, a laptop and desktop computer providing audio and visual input and output, a smartphone and tablet, a smart TV providing audio and visual output and audio input (or audio and visual input)).

The above has been described with reference to specific embodiments for purposes of explanation. However, the illustrative discussion above is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed. Many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teachings. The embodiments have been chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the technology and their practical applications so that others skilled in the art can best utilize the technology and various embodiments with various modifications as appropriate for the particular applications intended.

Although the present disclosure and examples have been fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, it should be noted that various changes and modifications will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Such changes and modifications are to be understood as being included within the scope of the present disclosure and examples, as defined by the claims.

As mentioned above, one aspect of the present technology is to collect and use data available from various sources to improve the delivery of content to users for shared content sessions. This disclosure contemplates that in some cases, this collected data may include personal information data that uniquely identifies a particular person or that can be used to contact or locate a particular person. Such personal information data may include demographic data, location-based data, phone numbers, email addresses, social network IDs, home addresses, data or records regarding the user's health or fitness level (e.g., vital sign measurements, medication information, exercise information), birth date, or any other identifying or personal information.

This disclosure recognizes that the use of such personal information data in the present technology may be for the benefit of the user. For example, personal information data may be used to deliver targeted content that is more interesting to the user. Thus, use of such personal information data allows for calculated control of the content delivered by the user. Additionally, other uses of personal information data that benefit the user are also contemplated by this disclosure. For example, health and fitness data may be used to provide insight into the overall wellness of the user, or may be used as proactive feedback to individuals using the technology in pursuit of wellness goals.

This disclosure contemplates that entities involved in the collection, analysis, disclosure, transmission, storage, or other use of such personal information data will adhere to robust privacy policies and/or privacy practices. Specifically, such entities should implement and consistently use privacy policies and practices that are generally recognized as meeting or exceeding industry or government requirements for keeping personal information data strictly confidential. Such policies should be easily accessible by users and should be updated as data collection and/or use changes. Personal information from users should be collected for the entity's lawful and legitimate use and should not be shared or sold except for those lawful uses. Furthermore, such collection/sharing should be carried out after notifying and obtaining consent from the user. Moreover, such entities should consider taking all necessary measures to protect and secure access to such personal information data and ensure that others who have access to the personal information data adhere to their privacy policies and procedures. Furthermore, such entities may subject themselves to third-party assessments to attest to their adherence to widely accepted privacy policies and practices. Moreover, policies and practices should be adapted to the specific types of personal information data being collected and/or accessed, and should conform to applicable laws and standards, including jurisdiction-specific considerations. For example, in the United States, collection of or access to certain health data may be governed by federal and/or state laws, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), while health data in other countries may be subject to other regulations and policies and should be addressed accordingly. Therefore, different privacy practices should be maintained with respect to different types of personal data in each country.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the present disclosure also contemplates embodiments in which a user selectively prevents use of or access to personal information data. That is, the present disclosure contemplates that hardware and/or software elements may be provided to prevent or block access to such personal information data. For example, the present technology may be configured to allow a user to select to "opt-in" or "opt-out" of participating in the collection of personal information data during registration for the service or at any time thereafter. In another example, the present technology may be configured to allow a user to prevent sharing of personal information that may appear on the user's screen (e.g., in a screen sharing embodiment, etc.). In addition to providing "opt-in" and "opt-out" options, the present disclosure contemplates providing notice regarding access or use of personal information. For example, the user may be informed upon download of an app that will access the user's personal information data, and then the user may be reminded again immediately before the personal information data is accessed by the app.

Further, it is the intent of this disclosure that personal information data should be managed and processed in a manner that minimizes the risk of unintended or unauthorized access or use. Risk can be minimized by limiting collection of data and deleting it when it is no longer needed. Additionally, where applicable in certain health-related applications, anonymization of data can be used to protect user privacy. De-identification can be facilitated by removing certain identifiers (e.g., date of birth, etc.) where appropriate, controlling the amount or specificity of data stored (e.g., collecting location data at a city level rather than an address level), controlling how data is stored (e.g., aggregating data across users), and/or other methods.

Thus, while this disclosure broadly encompasses the use of personal information data to implement one or more of the various disclosed embodiments, this disclosure also contemplates that the various embodiments may be implemented without requiring access to such personal information data. That is, the various embodiments of the technology are not rendered inoperable by the absence of all or a portion of such personal information data. For example, content may be selected and delivered to a user by inferring preferences based only on a minimal amount of non-personal information data or personal information, such as content requested by a device associated with the user, other non-personal information available on a content delivery service, or publicly available information.
