1. A multifunction device, comprising:
- a display;
one or more processors;
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;
displaying a plurality of icons on the display, wherein;
a first icon in the plurality of icons is displayed at a first location on the display, anda second icon in the plurality of icons, distinct from the first icon, has an activation region with a default size;
detecting an input that corresponds to a request to move the first icon;
changing a size of the activation region for the second icon from the default size based on a distance from the first location to a location of the second icon and based at least in part on a type of the second icon;
in response to detecting the input, moving the first icon across the display away from the first location;
detecting that the input meets predefined trigger criteria; and
,in response to detecting that the input meets predefined trigger criteria;
when the first icon is at least partly within the activation region of the second icon, performing a first operation that is associated with the second icon; and
when the first icon is outside of the activation region of the second icon, performing a second operation that is distinct from the first operation, wherein;
when the second icon is a folder icon, and the first operation is adding the first icon to the folder represented by the second icon, the activation region has a first size; and
when the second icon is an application icon, and the first operation is creating a folder including the first icon and the second icon, the activation region has a second size that is smaller than the first size.

Abstract
A multifunction device displays a plurality of selectable user interface objects on the display. In response to detecting the first input, the device moves a first object in the plurality of selectable user interface objects across the display to a location on the display that is proximate to a second object in the plurality of selectable user interface objects. In response to detecting that the first input meets predefined folder-creation criteria while the first object is proximate to the second object, the device creates a folder that contains the first object and the second object.
