CROWN INPUT FOR A WEARABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions for:
- receiving crown position information associated with a physical crown of an electronic device;
determining whether a rotation of the physical crown has occurred based on the received crown position information; and
in response to determining that the rotation of the physical crown has occurred, causing at least a portion of a plurality of applications displayed on a touch-sensitive display of the electronic device to be scrolled.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to manipulating a user interface on a wearable electronic device using a mechanical crown. In some examples, the user interface can be scrolled or scaled in response to a rotation of the crown. The direction of the scrolling or scaling and the amount of scrolling or scaling can depend on the direction and amount of rotation of the crown, respectively. In some examples, the amount of scrolling or scaling can be proportional to the change in rotation angle of the crown. In other examples, a speed of scrolling or a speed of scaling can depend on a speed of angular rotation of the crown. In these examples, a greater speed of rotation can cause a greater speed of scrolling or scaling to be performed on the displayed view.
