Abstract
A basic console user interface includes an indication that the computer system is attempting to connect to one or more external devices. When the connection is successfully established before a first threshold duration of time is reached, the display is updated with an enhanced console user interface.
Claims39
A computer system of a vehicle, wherein the computer system is configured to communicate with a first display generation component, 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:
- displaying, via the first display generation component, an indication that the computer system is attempting to connect to one or more external devices and a first set of information without displaying a second set of information;
- in accordance with a determination that a first set of criteria is met, wherein the first set of criteria includes a connection-established criterion that is met when a connection is successfully established between the computer system and an external device before a first threshold duration of time is reached, displaying, via the first display generation component, the second set of information;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that a second set of criteria is met, wherein the second set of criteria includes a connection-failed criterion that is met when a connection is not successfully established between the computer system and the external device before a second threshold duration of time is reached, displaying, via the first display generation component, a selectable option to switch to a native user interface of the vehicle without displaying the native user interface and without displaying the second set of information.

A method, comprising:
- at a computer system of a vehicle, wherein the computer system is communication with a first display generation component:
- displaying, via the first display generation component, an indication that the computer system is attempting to connect to one or more external devices and a first set of information without displaying a second set of information;
- in accordance with a determination that a first set of criteria is met, wherein the first set of criteria includes a connection-established criterion that is met when a connection is successfully established between the computer system and an external device before a first threshold duration of time is reached, displaying, via the first display generation component, the second set of information;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that a second set of criteria is met, wherein the second set of criteria includes a connection-failed criterion that is met when a connection is not successfully established between the computer system and the external device before a second threshold duration of time is reached, displaying, via the first display generation component, a selectable option to switch to a native user interface of the vehicle without displaying the native user interface and without displaying the second set of information.

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 of a vehicle, wherein the computer system is in communication with a first display generation component, the one or more programs including instructions for:
- displaying, via the first display generation component, an indication that the computer system is attempting to connect to one or more external devices and a first set of information without displaying a second set of information;
- in accordance with a determination that a first set of criteria is met, wherein the first set of criteria includes a connection-established criterion that is met when a connection is successfully established between the computer system and an external device before a first threshold duration of time is reached, displaying, via the first display generation component, the second set of information;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that a second set of criteria is met, wherein the second set of criteria includes a connection-failed criterion that is met when a connection is not successfully established between the computer system and the external device before a second threshold duration of time is reached, displaying, via the first display generation component, a selectable option to switch to a native user interface of the vehicle without displaying the native user interface and without displaying the second set of information.
