Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to managing one or more external devices. In some embodiments, one or more techniques are described, such as managing a control for operating various modes of an external device and managing a control indicating work performed by an external device.
Claims18
A method, comprising:
- at a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices:
- displaying, via the display generation component, a user interface that includes:
- an indication of a current selected environmental value for a setting of a device;
- an indication of a current detected environmental value for the setting of the device;
- and
- a first set of one or more indications at a first set of one or more positions between the indication of the current selected environmental value for the setting and the indication of the current detected environmental value for the setting of the device;
- while displaying the first set of one or more indications at the first set of one or more positions, detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input corresponding to a request to change the current selected environmental value for the setting;
- and
- in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to change the current selected environmental value for the setting:
- moving display of the indication of the current selected environmental value from a first position to a second position;
- and
- displaying, via the display generation component, a second set of one or more indications at a second set of one or more positions between the indication of the current selected environmental value for the setting and the indication of the current detected environmental value for the setting of the device, wherein at least one indication in the second set of one or more indications was not previously displayed before the input directed to the indication of a current selected environmental value for the setting was detected.

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:
- displaying, via the display generation component, a user interface that includes:
- an indication of a current selected environmental value for a setting of a device;
- an indication of a current detected environmental value for the setting of the device;
- and
- a first set of one or more indications at a first set of one or more positions between the indication of the current selected environmental value for the setting and the indication of the current detected environmental value for the setting of the device;
- while displaying the first set of one or more indications at the first set of one or more positions, detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input corresponding to a request to change the current selected environmental value for the setting;
- and
- in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to change the current selected environmental value for the setting:
- moving display of the indication of the current selected environmental value from a first position to a second position;
- and
- displaying, via the display generation component, a second set of one or more indications at a second set of one or more positions between the indication of the current selected environmental value for the setting and the indication of the current detected environmental value for the setting of the device, wherein at least one indication in the second set of one or more indications was not previously displayed before the input directed to the indication of a current selected environmental value for the setting was detected.
8 more elements
A computer system that is in communication 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:
- displaying, via the display generation component, a user interface that includes:
- an indication of a current selected environmental value for a setting of a device;
- an indication of a current detected environmental value for the setting of the device;
- and
- a first set of one or more indications at a first set of one or more positions between the indication of the current selected environmental value for the setting and the indication of the current detected environmental value for the setting of the device;
- while displaying the first set of one or more indications at the first set of one or more positions, detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input corresponding to a request to change the current selected environmental value for the setting;
- and
- in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to change the current selected environmental value for the setting:
- moving display of the indication of the current selected environmental value from a first position to a second position;
- and
- displaying, via the display generation component, a second set of one or more indications at a second set of one or more positions between the indication of the current selected environmental value for the setting and the indication of the current detected environmental value for the setting of the device, wherein at least one indication in the second set of one or more indications was not previously displayed before the input directed to the indication of a current selected environmental value for the setting was detected.
