1. A method, comprising:

  • at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface, wherein the electronic device includes one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive surface and the electronic device stores a first software application;

    displaying a user interface that includes two or more display regions, including a first display region and a second display region; and

    ,while displaying the user interface;

    detecting a first intensity applied by a touch input at a first location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to the first display region;

    detecting a movement of the touch input across the touch-sensitive surface from the first location on the touch-sensitive surface to a second location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to the second display region;

    after detecting the movement of the touch input from the first location on the touch-sensitive surface to the second location on the touch-sensitive surface, detecting a second intensity applied by the touch input at the second location on the touch-sensitive surface; and

    ,in response to detecting the second intensity applied by the touch input at the second location on the touch-sensitive surface;

    in accordance with a determination that the first intensity does not satisfy a first intensity threshold, processing the second intensity in accordance with one or more intensity thresholds associated with the second display region; and

    ,in accordance with a determination that the first intensity satisfies the first intensity threshold, processing the second intensity in accordance with one or more intensity thresholds associated with the first display region.
