1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by an electronic device with a display, a touch-sensitive surface and one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive surface, cause the device to:

  • detect a contact on the touch-sensitive surface;

    determine a location of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface;

    determine an intensity of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface; and

    display a response in accordance with the detected contact, the response being based at least in part on an input-output mapping of intensity to response at the location of the contact on the touch-sensitive surface, the input-output mapping including, for a respective location on the touch-sensitive surface;

    a first input-output relationship between intensity and response over a first range of intensity values;

    a second input-output relationship between intensity and response over a second range of intensity values, the second range of intensity values being different from the first range of intensity values; and

    a transitional intensity value where the first range of intensity values meets or overlaps the second range of intensity values, wherein, at the transitional intensity value;

    the first input-output relationship has a first rate of change of response with change in intensity;

    the second input-output relationship has a second rate of change of response with change in intensity; and

    the first rate of change is substantially the same as the second rate of change.
