Systems and Methods for Initiating and Interacting with a Companion-Display Mode for an Electronic Device with a Touch-Sensitive Display

A first electronic device, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a display device;
• and
• memory storing one or more programs that are configured for execution by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• receiving a request to annotate content on the first electronic device;
• and
• in response to receiving the request:
• in accordance with a determination that a second electronic device, distinct from the first electronic device, is available for displaying the content in an annotation mode and that using the second electronic device to display the content in the annotation mode has not previously been approved, displaying, via the display device, a selectable option that, when selected, causes the first electronic device to send an instruction to display the content in the annotation mode at the second electronic device;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the second electronic device is available for displaying the content in the annotation mode and that using the second electronic device to display the content in the annotation mode has previously been approved, sending an instruction to the second electronic device to display the content in the annotation mode automatically without further user intervention.

A computer-readable storage medium storing executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a first electronic device that includes a display device, cause the first electronic device to:

• receive a request to annotate content on the first electronic device;
• and
• in response to receiving the request:
• in accordance with a determination that a second electronic device, distinct from the first electronic device, is available for displaying the content in an annotation mode and that using the second electronic device to display the content in the annotation mode has not previously been approved, display, via the display device, a selectable option that, when selected, causes the first electronic device to send an instruction to display the content in the annotation mode at the second electronic device;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the second electronic device is available for displaying the content in the annotation mode and that using the second electronic device to display the content in the annotation mode has previously been approved, send an instruction to the second electronic device to display the content in the annotation mode automatically without further user intervention.
