24 Claims

1. A method, comprising:

at an electronic device:

displaying a home screen user interface that includes a plurality of application icons for different applications; and

performing a pairing process with respect to a wireless peripheral, including:

while displaying the home screen user interface, automatically detecting availability of the wireless peripheral for pairing with the electronic device based at least in part on proximity of the wireless peripheral to the electronic device satisfying proximity criteria while displaying the home screen user interface; and

in response to automatically detecting the availability of the wireless peripheral for pairing with the electronic device while displaying the home screen user interface, automatically displaying, overlaid on the home screen user interface, a connection user interface that includes information identifying the wireless peripheral and a selectable affordance for initiating pairing of the wireless peripheral with the electronic device;

while displaying the connection user interface that is automatically overlaid on the home screen user interface in response to detecting the availability of the wireless peripheral for pairing with the electronic device, detecting a single input directed to the selectable affordance for initiating pairing of the wireless peripheral with the electronic device; and

in response to detecting the single input directed to the selectable affordance in the connection user interface that is automatically overlaid on the home screen user interface in response to detecting the availability of the wireless peripheral for pairing with the electronic device, initiating pairing of the wireless peripheral with the electronic device;

wherein performing the pairing process includes:

determining whether one or more additional criteria, distinct from the proximity criteria, are met with respect to the wireless peripheral; and

in accordance with a determination that the one or more additional criteria are not met with respect to the wireless peripheral, displaying an informational user interface distinct from the connection user interface, overlaid on the home screen user interface, wherein the informational user interface includes instructions to meet the one or more additional criteria.
