1. A method comprising:
at a computer system with a display and a housing:
detecting an incoming call;
in response to detecting the incoming call, outputting an incoming call alert, wherein outputting the incoming call alert includes at least one of generating an audible output or generating a haptic output to indicate the presence of the incoming call;
while the incoming call alert is active, detecting an insertion of the computer system into a case, wherein at least a portion of the display is covered by the case when the computer system is in the case;
in response to detecting the insertion of the computer system into the case while the incoming call alert is active, ceasing to generate the at least one of the audible output or the haptic output without declining the incoming call;
after detecting the coupling of a case to the computer system and after ceasing to generate the at least one of the audible output or the haptic output, detecting a decoupling of the case from the computer system;
in response to detecting the decoupling of the case from the computer system, displaying an accept-call affordance on the display; and
in response to detecting a selection of the accept-call affordance, accepting the incoming call.
