Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to a dynamic user interface having an indication of time. The dynamic user interface having the indication of time further includes one or more geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, such that colors of the indication of time are different on opposite sides of a boundary of the one or more geometric regions that intersect the indication of time. The one or more geometric regions may shift and/or change over time, thereby providing a custom and/or unique dynamic user interface having the indication of time.
Claims48
A computer system, comprising:
- a display generation component;
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
- receiving a first request to display an indication of time, wherein the indication of time indicates a current time of day;
- in response to receiving the first request to display the indication of time, displaying, via the display generation component:
- the indication of time;
- and
- one or more first geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, wherein on a first side of a boundary of the one or more first geometric regions, the indication of time includes a first color, and wherein on a second side of the boundary of the one or more first geometric regions, the indication of time includes a second color different from the first color, wherein the one or more first geometric regions intersect the indication of time at a first time of day and, at the first time of day, the indication of time has an appearance that indicates the first time of day;
- after displaying the indication of time and the one or more first geometric regions receiving a second request to display the indication of time;
- and
- in response to receiving the second request to display the indication of time, displaying, via the display generation component:
- the indication of time;
- and
- one or more second geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, wherein the one or more second geometric regions are different from the one or more first geometric regions, and wherein on a first side of a boundary of the one or more second geometric regions, the indication of time includes a third color, and wherein on a second side of the boundary of the one or more second geometric regions, the indication of time includes a fourth color different from the third color, wherein the one or more second geometric regions intersect the indication of time at a second time of day and, at the second time of day, the indication of time has an appearance that indicates the second time of day.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component, the one or more programs including instructions for:
- receiving a first request to display an indication of time, wherein the indication of time indicates a current time of day;
- in response to receiving the first request to display the indication of time, displaying, via the display generation component:
- the indication of time;
- and
- one or more first geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, wherein on a first side of a boundary of the one or more first geometric regions, the indication of time includes a first color, and wherein on a second side of the boundary of the one or more first geometric regions, the indication of time includes a second color different from the first color, wherein the one or more first geometric regions intersect the indication of time at a first time of day and, at the first time of day, the indication of time has an appearance that indicates the first time of day;
- after displaying the indication of time and the one or more first geometric regions receiving a second request to display the indication of time;
- and
- in response to receiving the second request to display the indication of time, displaying, via the display generation component:
- the indication of time;
- and
- one or more second geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, wherein the one or more second geometric regions are different from the one or more first geometric regions, and wherein on a first side of a boundary of the one or more second geometric regions, the indication of time includes a third color, and wherein on a second side of the boundary of the one or more second geometric regions, the indication of time includes a fourth color different from the third color, wherein the one or more second geometric regions intersect the indication of time at a second time of day and, at the second time of day, the indication of time has an appearance that indicates the second time of day.
A method, comprising:
- at a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component:
- receiving by the computer system a first request from a user to display an indication of time, wherein the indication of time indicates a current time of day;
- in response to receiving the first request to display the indication of time, displaying, via the display generation component:
- the indication of time;
- and
- one or more first geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, wherein on a first side of a boundary of the one or more first geometric regions, the indication of time includes a first color, and wherein on a second side of the boundary of the one or more first geometric regions, the indication of time includes a second color different from the first color, wherein the one or more first geometric regions intersect the indication of time at a first time of day and, at the first time of day, the indication of time has an appearance that indicates the first time of day;
- after displaying the indication of time and the one or more first geometric regions receiving by the computer system a second request from the user to display the indication of time;
- and
- in response to receiving the second request to display the indication of time, displaying, via the display generation component:
- the indication of time;
- and
- one or more second geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, wherein the one or more second geometric regions are different from the one or more first geometric regions, and wherein on a first side of a boundary of the one or more second geometric regions, the indication of time includes a third color, and wherein on a second side of the boundary of the one or more second geometric regions, the indication of time includes a fourth color different from the third color, wherein the one or more second geometric regions intersect the indication of time at a second time of day and, at the second time of day, the indication of time has an appearance that indicates the second time of day.
