A method of a wearable device displaying icons is provided. The method includes displaying a plurality of circular icons comprising a first circular icon located in a center area of a touch display in a first size and a second circular icon located outside of the center area of the touch display in a second size smaller than the first size, and based on a direction of a touch input received on the touch display, moving the plurality of circular icons such that the first circular icon is moved to a first position located outside of the center area of the touch display and the second circular icon is moved from a second position located outside the center area of the touch display to the center area of the touch display and enlarged in size from the second size to the first size.

An electronic device includes a first application. The electronic device detects a first operation. The electronic device displays, in a landscape orientation state, a first interface of the first application in a first area of a display screen of the electronic device in response to the first operation. The electronic device detects a second operation on the first interface, where the second operation enables the electronic device to open a second interface of the first application. The electronic device displays the second interface in a second area in response to the second operation. The display screen includes at least two areas, the at least two areas include the first area and the second area, and different areas of the display screen do not overlap.

User interface navigation on a personal electronics device based on movements of a crown is disclosed. The device can select an appropriate level of information arranged along a z-axis for display based on crown movement. The navigation can be based on an angular velocity of the crown.

Systems and methods are provided for adjusting point of sale (POS) interfaces. In some embodiments, a POS device includes a display. The display is configured to present a user interface, the user interface having a first interface and a second interface. The first interface has a first set of functionalities that is prevented from being accessible in the second interface.

A method for controlling rotation of an image displayed in a display screen includes establishing a coordinate system with an origin being set at a center of the display screen. The coordinate system includes a coordinate plane in parallel to an average plane associated with the display screen. The method further includes dividing the coordinate plane to four azimuth intervals corresponding respectively to four display modes with four boundary lines being all intersected at the origin of the coordinate system. Additionally, the method includes defining a respective buffer region in a respective angular range around a respective boundary line. Furthermore, the method includes determining whether an azimuth angle of a gravity acceleration vector component in the coordinate plane is kept in a respective azimuth interval corresponding to a current display mode of the image including two buffer regions respectively associated with two boundary lines of the respective azimuth interval.

A portable electronic device for use in different orientations includes a signal control module, a key control module, an information display module, and a position detection module. The key control module includes a plurality of functional switches and functional keys. The signal control module has a plurality of key function execution commands respectively corresponding to the functional keys. The position detection module is configured for detecting a placement orientation of the portable electronic device. When the portable electronic device is rotated to change the placement orientation of the information display module, a screen orientation of an information display image provided by the information display module is changed following a change of the placement orientation of the information display module, and a corresponding relationship between the functional switch and the key function execution command is changed following the change of the placement orientation of the information display module.

A method of presenting media content is disclosed. A plurality of assets is received at a mobile device comprising a display and an orientation sensor. The plurality of assets comprises a first video asset associated with a first aspect ratio, and a second video asset associated with a second aspect ratio, different from the first aspect ratio. A desired aspect ratio is determined based on an output of the orientation sensor. In accordance with a determination that the desired aspect ratio is closer to the first aspect ratio than to the second aspect ratio, the first video asset is selected. In accordance with a determination that the desired aspect ratio is closer to the second aspect ratio than to the first aspect ratio, the second video asset is selected. The selected video is presented at the desired aspect ratio via the display.
