PHONE USER INTERFACE
First Claim
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, cause the device to:
- during an active phone call, detect a touch on the display, wherein the touch has a characteristic intensity and is located at the position of a first affordance;
determine whether the characteristic intensity exceeds a predetermined threshold intensity;
in response to at least a determination that the characteristic intensity exceeds the predetermined threshold intensity, send 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 active phone call; and
in response to at least a determination that the characteristic intensity is below the predetermined threshold intensity, perform a function associated with the first affordance.

Abstract
An electronic device having a user interface for accessing phone features. The user interface accounts for whether the electronic device is connected to a companion cellular phone. The user interface accounts for a headset is available for use to carry on a call. The user interface permits transition between using one or more of cellular phone, headset, and/or the electronic device to be used for carrying on incoming or outgoing calls.

9. A method comprising:
-
at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display, wherein the touch-sensitive display comprises one or more sensors to detect the intensity of touches on the touch-sensitive display; during an active phone call, detecting a touch on the touch-sensitive display, wherein the touch has a characteristic intensity and is located at the position of a first affordance; determining whether the characteristic intensity exceeds a predetermined threshold intensity; in response to at least a determination that the characteristic intensity exceeds the predetermined threshold intensity, sending 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 active phone call; and in response to 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)

17. An electronic device, comprising:
-
a display, one or more processors; a memory; and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for; during an active phone call, detecting a touch on the display, wherein the touch has a characteristic intensity and is located at the position of a first affordance; determining whether the characteristic intensity exceeds a predetermined threshold intensity; in response to at least a determination that the characteristic intensity exceeds the predetermined threshold intensity, sending 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 active phone call; and in response to 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 (18, 19, 20)
