• exiting the first application;
• after exiting the first application, receiving a request from the user to open a second application that is distinct from the first application;
• and
• in response to receiving the request and in accordance with a determination that the second application is capable of accepting geographic location information, presenting the second application on the display of the electronic device, wherein presenting the second application on the display of the electronic device includes populating the second application with information that is based at least in part on the information identifying the first physical location.

An electronic device, comprising:

• a touch-sensitive surface unit configured to receive contacts from a user;
• a display unit configured to display user interfaces;
• and
• a processing unit coupled with the touch-sensitive surface unit and the display unit, the processing unit configured to:
• while displaying a first application, obtain information identifying a first physical location viewed by a user using a search feature of the first application;
• exit the first application;
• after exiting the first application, receive a request from the user to open a second application that is distinct from the first application;
• and
• in response to receiving the request and in accordance with a determination that the second application is capable of accepting geographic location information, present the second application on the display of the electronic device, wherein presenting the second application on the display of the electronic device includes populating the second application with information that is based at least in part on the information identifying the first physical location.
