1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device with a display and a wireless communication module, cause the electronic device to:
- display, on the display, an indication of an incoming phone call from a caller;
while displaying, on the display, the indication of the incoming phone call from the caller, receive an answer input at the electronic device;
in response to receiving the answer input at the electronic device, initiate an in-progress phone call in which the electronic device has an audio connection to the caller;
during the in-progress phone call, detect a touch input on the display, wherein the touch input has a characteristic intensity and is located at the position of a first affordance;
in response to detecting the touch input;
in accordance with at least a determination that the characteristic intensity exceeds a predetermined threshold intensity, send, via the wireless communication module of the electronic device, an instruction to a cellular phone instructing the cellular phone to display a second affordance, wherein the second affordance, when selected, causes the cellular phone to retrieve the in-progress phone call, wherein the electronic device and the cellular phone are different devices; and
in accordance with at least a determination that the characteristic intensity is below the predetermined threshold intensity, perform a function associated with the first affordance.

9. A method comprising:
-
at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display and a wireless communication module, wherein the touch-sensitive display comprises one or more sensors to detect the intensity of touches on the touch-sensitive display; displaying, on the touch-sensitive display, an indication of an incoming phone call from a caller; while displaying, on the touch-sensitive display, the indication of the incoming phone call from the caller, receiving an answer input at the electronic device; in response to receiving the answer input at the electronic device, initiating an in-progress phone call in which the electronic device has an audio connection to the caller; during the in-progress phone call, detecting a touch input on the touch-sensitive display, wherein the touch input has a characteristic intensity and is located at the position of a first affordance; in response to detecting the touch input; in accordance with at least a determination that the characteristic intensity exceeds a predetermined threshold intensity, sending, via the wireless communication module of the electronic device, an instruction to a cellular phone instructing the cellular phone to display a second affordance, wherein the second affordance, when selected, causes the cellular phone to retrieve the in-progress phone call, wherein the electronic device and the cellular phone are different devices; and in accordance with at least a determination that the characteristic intensity is below the predetermined threshold intensity, performing a function associated with the first affordance. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
