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 user interface for configuring an account for a service for use by one or more devices associated with a second user identity, wherein displaying the user interface includes concurrently displaying:
a first graphical user interface object that, when selected by an input detected via the one or more input devices, displays a first indicator; and
a second graphical user interface object independently selectable from the first graphical user interface object that, when selected by an input detected via the one or more input devices, displays a second indicator;
while displaying, via the display generation component, the user interface, detecting, via the one or more input devices, an input corresponding to a request to configure the account; and
in response to detecting the input corresponding to the request to configure the account:
in accordance with a determination that the first graphical user interface object is currently selected, transmitting a request to configure the account with an account setting corresponding to the first graphical user interface object, wherein:
transfers are permitted between the account configured with the account setting corresponding to the first graphical user interface object and only a first set of user accounts for the service;
transfers are restricted between the account configured with the account setting corresponding to the first graphical user interface object and all user accounts for the service other than the first set of user accounts; and
the first set of user accounts are associated with a predetermined set of users of the service including the first user identity; and
in accordance with a determination that the second graphical user interface object is currently selected, transmitting a request to configure the account with an account setting corresponding to the second graphical user interface object, wherein:
transfers are permitted between the account configured with the account setting corresponding to the second graphical user interface object and a second set of user accounts for the service; and
the second set of user accounts includes the first set of user accounts and at least one or more additional user accounts associated with additional users of the service.
