Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to displaying visual effects in image data. In some examples, visual effects include an avatar displayed on a user's face. In some examples, visual effects include stickers applied to image data. In some examples, visual effects include screen effects. In some examples, visual effects are modified based on depth data in the image data.
Claims14
An electronic device, comprising:
- a camera;
- a display apparatus;
- one or more input devices;
- 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 apparatus, a messaging user interface of a message conversation including at least a first participant, the messaging user interface including a camera affordance;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a set of one or more inputs that includes an input directed to the camera affordance;
- in response to detecting the set of one or more inputs that includes an input directed to the camera affordance, displaying a camera user interface, the camera user interface including a capture affordance, wherein the camera user interface further includes an effects mode affordance associated with a mode in which visual effects are enabled for display in image data that is captured;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a selection of the effects mode affordance;
- in response to detecting the selection of the effects mode affordance, transitioning the electronic device from a first camera mode to a second camera mode, different from the first camera mode;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a second input directed to the capture affordance;
- in response to detecting the second input:
- capturing image data using the camera;
- ceasing to display the capture affordance;
- and
- displaying a first affordance;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a set of one or more inputs that includes a selection of the first affordance;
- and
- in response to detecting the set of one or more inputs that includes a selection of the first affordance, initiating a process to send the captured image data to the first participant.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to be executed by one or more processors of an electronic device that is in communication with a camera, a display apparatus, and one or more input devices, the one or more programs including instructions for:
- displaying, via the display apparatus, a messaging user interface of a message conversation including at least a first participant, the messaging user interface including a camera affordance;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a set of one or more inputs that includes an input directed to the camera affordance;
- in response to detecting the set of one or more inputs that includes an input directed to the camera affordance, displaying a camera user interface, the camera user interface including a capture affordance, wherein the camera user interface further includes an effects mode affordance associated with a mode in which visual effects are enabled for display in image data that is captured;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a selection of the effects mode affordance;
- in response to detecting the selection of the effects mode affordance, transitioning the electronic device from a first camera mode to a second camera mode, different from the first camera mode;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a second input directed to the capture affordance;
- in response to detecting the second input:
- capturing image data using the camera;
- ceasing to display the capture affordance;
- and
- displaying a first affordance;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a set of one or more inputs that includes a selection of the first affordance;
- and
- in response to detecting the set of one or more inputs that includes a selection of the first affordance, initiating a process to send the captured image data to the first participant.

A method, comprising:
- at an electronic device having a camera, a display apparatus, and one or more input devices:
- displaying, via the display apparatus, a messaging user interface of a message conversation including at least a first participant, the messaging user interface including a camera affordance;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a set of one or more inputs that includes an input directed to the camera affordance;
- in response to detecting the set of one or more inputs that includes an input directed to the camera affordance, displaying a camera user interface, the camera user interface including a capture affordance, wherein the camera user interface further includes an effects mode affordance associated with a mode in which visual effects are enabled for display in image data that is captured;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a selection of the effects mode affordance;
- in response to detecting the selection of the effects mode affordance, transitioning the electronic device from a first camera mode to a second camera mode, different from the first camera mode;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a second input directed to the capture affordance;
- in response to detecting the second input:
- capturing image data using the camera;
- ceasing to display the capture affordance;
- and
- displaying a first affordance;
- detecting, via the one or more input devices, a set of one or more inputs that includes a selection of the first affordance;
- and
- in response to detecting the set of one or more inputs that includes a selection of the first affordance, initiating a process to send the captured image data to the first participant.
