1. A method comprising:
- at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive display;
displaying, on the touch-sensitive display, a user interface;
detecting a touch input in a region of the displayed user interface;
determining whether the electronic device is in motion or stationary while the touch input is detected;
in accordance with a determination that the electronic device is stationary while the touch input is detected and that the touch input matches a respective set of finger gestures, performing a predefined action; and
,in accordance with a determination that the electronic device is in motion while the touch input is detected and that the touch input matches a subset of the respective set of finger gestures, performing the predefined action.

Abstract
Techniques for performing context-sensitive actions in response to touch input are provided. A user interface of an application can be displayed. Touch input can be received in a region of the displayed user interface, and a context can be determined. A first action may be performed if the context is a first context and a second action may instead be performed if the context is a second context different from the first context. In some embodiments, an action may be performed if the context is a first context and the touch input is a first touch input, and may also be performed if the context is a second context and the touch input is a second touch input.
