Abstract

An electronic device displays a user interface that includes one or more user interface elements. The device detects a contact on a touch-sensitive surface. The device detects a first increase in a characteristic intensity of the contact. In response to detecting the first increase, the device adjusts a property of a first user interface element from a first value to a second value. After adjusting the property, the device detects a decrease in the characteristic intensity of the contact. In response to detecting the decrease, in accordance with a determination that the first increase met intensity criteria, the device maintains the property above the first value. After detecting the decrease, the device detects a second increase in the characteristic intensity of the contact. In response to detecting the second increase, the device adjusts the property to a third value that is greater than the second value.
