Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to methods and devices for providing touch accommodations to users with tremors or other fine motor impairments to improve the accuracy of such users' touch inputs on touch-sensitive surfaces. Such methods and devices include various approaches for compensating for brief, inadvertent touch inputs; touch inputs with inadvertent motion across the touch-sensitive surface; and/or touch inputs with inadvertent recoil contacts. In some embodiments, the touch accommodations are implemented in a software layer separate from the application layer, such as the operating system.

Claim (Index 42):
A method, comprising: at a device with a touch-sensitive surface and a display:\n displaying, on the display, a user interface associated with an application; detecting, on the touch-sensitive surface, a first touch input including a first contact; in response to detecting the first touch input, generating data representing at least a portion of the first touch input; in accordance with a determination that a hold duration setting is enabled:\n determining whether a set of one or more hold duration criteria have been met for the first touch input, wherein a criterion of the set of one or more hold duration criteria is based on a hold duration time period that corresponds to the hold duration setting, and wherein the criterion is met when a duration of the first contact exceeds the hold duration time period; \n in accordance with a determination that the set of one or more hold duration criteria have been met for the first touch input, providing the data representing at least a portion of the first touch input to the application; and \n in accordance with a determination that the set of one or more hold duration criteria have not been met, forgoing providing the data representing at least a portion of the first touch input to the application.
