1. A computer system that is configured to communicate with a display generation component, the computer system comprising:
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 generation component, a representation of a noise level at a plurality of different times, wherein the representation includes:
in accordance with a determination that a sound reduction display option is enabled:
a first indication of a noise level at a first time of the plurality of different times that indicates:
 in accordance with a determination that sound reduction was in effect at the first time, a first noise level, wherein the first noise level is based on an environmental noise level at the first time and a first sound reduction effect that was in effect at the first time; and
 in accordance with a determination that sound reduction was not in effect at the first time, a second noise level that is greater than the first noise level, wherein the second noise level is based on the environmental noise level at the first time;
a second indication of a noise level at a second time of the plurality of different times that is different from the first time and that indicates:
 in accordance with a determination that sound reduction was in effect at the second time, a third noise level, wherein the third noise level is based on an environmental noise level at the second time and a second sound reduction effect that was in effect at the second time; and
 in accordance with a determination that sound reduction was not in effect at the second time, a fourth noise level that is greater than the third noise level, wherein the fourth noise level is based on the environmental noise level at the second time;
in accordance with a determination that the sound reduction display option is not enabled:
a third indication of a noise level at the first time that indicates the second noise level; and
a fourth indication of a noise level at the second time that indicates the fourth noise level.
