Device, method, and graphical user interface for navigating through a user interface using a dynamic object selection indicator

A method comprising:

• at a computing device with one or more processors and memory, wherein the device is in communication with a display and a touch-sensitive surface:
• sending instructions to the display for displaying at least a portion of a user interface, the user interface having one or more selectable objects;
• receiving an input that corresponds to a first gesture detected on the touch-sensitive surface, wherein the first gesture includes lateral movement of a respective contact on the touch-sensitive surface and liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface;
• sending instructions to the display for displaying an object selection indicator;
• and
• in response to receiving at least a portion of the input that corresponds to the first gesture:
• moving the object selection indicator in accordance with the first gesture while the respective contact is detected on the touch-sensitive surface;
• after detecting liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface,
• determining a termination point of movement of the object selection indicator based on the first gesture;
• searching for a target selectable object;
• and
• sending instructions to the display for moving the object selection indicator, wherein:
• when a target selectable object is identified, moving the object selection indicator includes continuing to move the object selection indicator towards the target selectable object after detecting liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface, wherein the target selectable object is at a location that is different than a location of the termination point;
• and
• when a target selectable object is not identified, moving the object selection indicator includes continuing to move the object selection indicator towards the termination point after detecting liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by a computing device that is in communication with a display and a touch-sensitive surface, cause the device to:

• send instructions to the display for displaying at least a portion of a user interface, the user interface having one or more selectable objects, wherein the first gesture includes lateral movement of a respective contact on the touch-sensitive surface and liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface;
• receive an input that corresponds to a first gesture detected on the touch-sensitive surface;
• send instructions to the display for displaying an object selection indicator;
• and
• in response to receiving at least a portion of the input that corresponds to the first gesture:
• move the object selection indicator in accordance with the first gesture while the respective contact is detected on the touch-sensitive surface;
• after detecting liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface,
• determine a termination point of movement of the object selection indicator based on the first gesture;
• search for a target selectable object;
• and
• send instructions to the display for moving the object selection indicator, wherein:
• when a target selectable object is identified, moving the object selection indicator includes continuing to move the object selection indicator towards the target selectable object after detecting liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface, wherein the target selectable object is at a location that is different than a location of the termination point;
• and
• when a target selectable object is not identified, moving the object selection indicator includes continuing to move the object selection indicator towards the termination point after detecting liftoff of the respective contact from the touch-sensitive surface.
