    (ii) display a first indication corresponding to the first application in an additional portion of the touch-sensitive display that is distinct from and adjacent to the predefined portion, wherein a combination of the predefined portion and the additional portion occupy substantially all of the touch-sensitive display;

    detect a selection of the second selectable user interface element;

    in response to detecting the selection of the second selectable user interface element;

    (i) display the third application in the predefined portion of the touch-sensitive display; and
