User interface for limiting notifications and alerts

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• at an electronic device comprising a touch-sensitive display that includes a touch-sensitive component and a display:
• receiving data representing a user input;
• determining, based on the data representing the user input, whether the user input is a cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display, wherein determining whether the user input is a cover gesture includes determining, based on the data representing the user input, whether a touch has been detected at a threshold amount of the touch-sensitive display;
• and
• in response to receiving the data representing the user input:
• in accordance with a determination that the user input is the cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display for greater than a threshold duration:
• entering a do not disturb (DND) mode, wherein the electronic device forgoes providing at least one type of notification in response to receiving an incoming notification triggerin event while in the DND mode, and wherein the electronic device remains in the DND mode, that was entered in response to detecting the cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display for greater than the threshold duration, until one or more conditions for exiting the DND mode are met;
• and
• performing a first predetermined action including displaying a first user interface:
• in accordance with a determination that the user input is the cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display for not greater than the threshold duration, performing a second predetermined action including displaying a second user interface different from the first user interface.

An electronic device, comprising:

• a touch-sensitive display that includes a touch-sensitive component and a display;
• one or more processors;
• a memory;
• and
• one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• receiving data representing a user input;
• determining, based on the data representing the user input, whether the user input is a cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display, wherein determining whether the user input is a cover gesture includes determining, based on the data representing the user input, whether a touch has been detected at a threshold amount of the touch-sensitive display;
• and
• in response to receiving the data representing the user input:
• in accordance with a determination that the user input is the cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display for greater than a threshold duration:
• entering a do not disturb (DND) mode, wherein the electronic device forgoes providing at least one type of notification in response to receiving an incoming notification triggering event while in the DND mode, and wherein the electronic device remains in the DND mode, that was entered in response to detecting the cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display for greater than the threshold duration, until one or more conditions for exiting the DND mode are met;
• and
• performing a first predetermined action including displaying a first user interface;
• in accordance with a determination that the user input is the cover gesture over the touch-sensitive display for not greater than the threshold duration, performing a second predetermined action including displaying a second user interface different from the first user interface.
