Devices, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Accessibility Using a Touch-Sensitive Surface
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- at an accessible electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface and a display;
displaying a plurality of user interface elements on the display, wherein a current focus is on a first user interface element;
detecting a first finger gesture on the touch-sensitive surface, wherein the first finger gesture is independent of contacting a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a second user interface element; and
,in response to detecting the first finger gesture;
changing the current focus from the first user interface element in the plurality of user interface elements to the second user interface element in the plurality of user interface elements; and
outputting accessibility information associated with the second user interface element.

Abstract
A method is performed by an accessible electronic device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface. The method includes: displaying a plurality of user interface elements on the display, wherein a current focus is on a first user interface element; detecting a first finger gesture on the touch-sensitive surface, wherein the first finger gesture is independent of contacting a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a second user interface element; and, in response to detecting the first finger gesture: changing the current focus from the first user interface element in the plurality of user interface elements to the second user interface element in the plurality of user interface elements; and outputting accessibility information associated with the second user interface element.
