TL;DR: In this paper, a computer-implemented method for use in conjunction with a computing device with a touch screen display comprises: detecting one or more finger contacts with the touch screen, applying one or several heuristics to the finger contacts to determine a command for the device, and processing the command.
Patent
Unlocking a device by performing gestures on an unlock image
TL;DR: In this article, a device with a touch-sensitive display may be unlocked via gestures performed on the touch sensitive display, if contact with the display corresponds to a predefined gesture for unlocking the device.
Patent

Os Marcel Van,Freddy Allen Anzures,Scott Forstall,Greg Christie,Bas Ording,Imran Chaudhri,Stephen O. Lemay +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a portable electronic device displays a plurality of icons (e.g., graphical objects) in a region in a touch-sensitive display; detects a predefined user action, with respect to the touch sensitive display, for initiating an interface reconfiguration process.
Patent
Portable electronic device with multi-touch input
TL;DR: In this article, a portable communication device with multi-touch input detects one or more multitouch contacts and motions and performs one-touch operations on an object based on the contacts and/or motions, such that the object has a resolution that is less than a pre-determined threshold when the operation is performed on the object, and the object's resolution is greater than the threshold at other times.
Patent
Portable electronic device for photo management
Michael Matas,Gregory N. Christie,Paul D. Marcos,Scott Forstall,Marcel van Os,Bas Ording,Imran Chaudhri +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a portable electronic device with a touch screen display for photo management is described, which displays an array of thumbnail images corresponding to a set of photographic images and replaces the displayed array with a user-selected photographic image upon detecting a user contact with a corresponding thumbnail image in the array.
