1. A mobile electronic device comprising:
- one or more processors;
memory;
a touch-sensitive display;
a housing defining a shape of the mobile electronic device;
a first camera disposed in a first portion of the housing;
a second camera disposed in a second portion of the housing; and
a user-interface module, stored in the memory and executable on the one or more processors to;
present, on the touch-sensitive display, a screen comprising;
an upper portion that includes a first list including icons representing applications available to the mobile electronic device, the first list being scrollable horizontally by touch gestures on the touch-sensitive display to alter an icon of the icons that has focus in the first list; and
a lower portion that includes a first icon representing a first content item associated with an application corresponding to the icon that has focus in the first list;
determine a position of at least a portion of a user relative to the mobile electronic device based at least in part on data from the first camera and the second camera;
present, at least partly in response to the position of the user relative to the mobile electronic device, an altered version of at least one of;
the icon that has focus in the first list, orthe first icon in the lower portion.

Abstract
Electronic devices, interfaces for electronic devices, and techniques for interacting with such interfaces and electronic devices are described. For instance, this disclosure describes an example electronic device that includes sensors, such as multiple front-facing cameras to detect orientation and/or location of the electronic device relative to an object and one or more inertial sensors. Users of the device may perform gestures on the device by moving the device in-air and/or by moving their head, face, or eyes relative to the device. In response to these gestures, the device may perform operations.

5. One or more computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed on one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform acts comprising:
-
presenting, on a display of an electronic device, a first graphical user interface comprising; a first portion including a first icon representing a first application available to the electronic device, the first icon being selectable to open the first application; and a second portion that includes a second icon representing one or more content items associated with the first application corresponding to the first icon in the first portion; receiving data from one or more optical sensors of the electronic device; determining a change in position of the electronic device relative to at least a portion of a user based at least in part on the data; and presenting, at least partly in response to the determining the change in position of the electronic device relative to the portion of the user, a second graphical user interface different than the first graphical user interface. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method comprising:
-
under control of an electronic device configured with specific instructions executable by one or more processors of the electronic device, presenting, on a display of the electronic device, application icons in a carousel, a first application icon usable to open a first application; receiving user input to move the first application icon to a front of the carousel; presenting first information of one or more content items associated with the first application; receiving data from one or more optical sensors of the electronic device; determining a change in position of the electronic device relative to at least a portion of a user based at least in part on the data; and presenting second information on the display at least partly in response to determining the change in position. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
