Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces for managing user accounts. Initiating a process to create a user account and displaying an access-setting user interface that includes a plurality of selectable and customizable options for setting content access criteria.
Claims33
A computer system configured to communicate with a display generation component and one or more input devices, comprising:
- 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:
- while a first user account is active on the computer system, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a first set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to initiate a process to create a second user account;
- in response to the first set of one or more inputs, initiating the process to create the second user account;
- during the process to create the second user account:
- displaying, via the display generation component, an access-setting user interface that includes a plurality of selectable age options for setting content access criteria, wherein the access-setting user interface includes:
- a first selectable age option of the plurality of selectable age options that corresponds to a first set of content access criteria;
- a second selectable age option of the plurality of selectable age options that corresponds to a second set of content access criteria, different from the first set of content access criteria;
- and
- a first indication of a currently selected content access level for a first type of content;
- while the first selectable age option is selected and while the first indication indicates that the first type of content has a first access level that is based on the first set of content access criteria, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a second set of one or more inputs that includes a first input corresponding to selection of the second selectable age option;
- in response to the second set of one or more inputs:
- selecting the second selectable age option;
- and
- modifying the first indication to indicate a second access level, different from the first access level, for the first type of content, wherein the second access level is a predetermined access level based on the second set of content access criteria corresponding to the second selectable age option;
- and
- configuring the second user account to allow signing into the second user account via an approval from the first user account;
- after completing the process to create the second user account, receiving a second request from an external computer system to approve signing into the external computer system with the second user account;
- and
- in response to receiving the second request, displaying one or more options to approve or deny the request.

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 and one or more input devices, the one or more programs including instructions for:
- while a first user account is active on the computer system, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a first set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to initiate a process to create a second user account;
- in response to the first set of one or more inputs, initiating the process to create the second user account;
- during the process to create the second user account:
- displaying, via the display generation component, an access-setting user interface that includes a plurality of selectable age options for setting content access criteria, wherein the access-setting user interface includes:
- a first selectable age option of the plurality of selectable age options that corresponds to a first set of content access criteria;
- a second selectable age option of the plurality of selectable age options that corresponds to a second set of content access criteria, different from the first set of content access criteria;
- and
- a first indication of a currently selected content access level for a first type of content;
- while the first selectable age option is selected and while the first indication indicates that the first type of content has a first access level that is based on the first set of content access criteria, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a second set of one or more inputs that includes a first input corresponding to selection of the second selectable age option;
- in response to the second set of one or more inputs:
- selecting the second selectable age option;
- and
- modifying the first indication to indicate a second access level, different from the first access level, for the first type of content, wherein the second access level is a predetermined access level based on the second set of content access criteria corresponding to the second selectable age option;
- and
- configuring the second user account to allow signing into the second user account via an approval from the first user account;
- after completing the process to create the second user account, receiving a second request from an external computer system to approve signing into the external computer system with the second user account;
- and
- in response to receiving the second request, displaying one or more options to approve or deny the request.

A method comprising:
- at a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices:
- while a first user account is active on the computer system, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a first set of one or more inputs corresponding to a request to initiate a process to create a second user account;
- in response to the first set of one or more inputs, initiating the process to create the second user account;
- during the process to create the second user account:
- displaying, via the display generation component, an access-setting user interface that includes a plurality of selectable age options for setting content access criteria, wherein the access-setting user interface includes:
- a first selectable age option of the plurality of selectable age options that corresponds to a first set of content access criteria;
- a second selectable age option of the plurality of selectable age options that corresponds to a second set of content access criteria, different from the first set of content access criteria;
- and
- a first indication of a currently selected content access level for a first type of content;
- while the first selectable age option is selected and while the first indication indicates that the first type of content has a first access level that is based on the first set of content access criteria, detecting, via the one or more input devices, a second set of one or more inputs that includes a first input corresponding to selection of the second selectable age option;
- in response to the second set of one or more inputs:
- selecting the second selectable age option;
- and
- modifying the first indication to indicate a second access level, different from the first access level, for the first type of content, wherein the second access level is a predetermined access level based on the second set of content access criteria corresponding to the second selectable age option;
- and
- configuring the second user account to allow signing into the second user account via an approval from the first user account;
- after completing the process to create the second user account, receiving a second request from an external computer system to approve signing into the external computer system with the second user account;
- and
- in response to receiving the second request, displaying one or more options to approve or deny the request.
