Abstract

Techniques for displaying widgets are described. In some examples, while displaying a first plurality of application icons, an electronic device detects a first user input. In response to detecting the first user input, in accordance with a determination that the first user input includes movement in a first direction, the electronic device ceases display of the first plurality of application icons, and displays a second plurality of application icons. In response to detecting the first user input, in accordance with a determination that the first user input includes movement in a second direction, the electronic device modifies display of the first plurality of application icons to change a distance between a first application icon and a second application icon of the first plurality of application icons, and concurrently displays the modified first plurality of application icons and the first set of one or more user interface elements.
